BAL is still the BAL, but the change is kinda noticeable.

AK's very nice as it was unchanged, the H one is meh.

KF5 I've only used in its breakneck elite version which is hilarious.

I'll try the ASM1 after I've eaten. I liked the speakeasy version of it but I haven't used it in weeks.

You'll notice we have (at least) 11+10+6 wins there on the left. Nope!

Nah, it's the same as Ghosts clan wars. Once you cap it the other teams then have to get you back to 0 wins before they can race for it again. They went crazy on HCKC whilst you guys were sleeping. I did a few matches but for every win I got we'd lost 3.

To win it back we have to start from 0 again.

Then you stab through your robot arm to kill Kevin Spacey (the arm he gave you HOW SYMBOLIC). And for God's sake, stop ripping off MW3. I know it was the last time the story campaign was even slightly good but that doesn't mean you can just keep cannibalizing its corpse!

The clan I'm joined to is having issues as well. Three of us have been playing dom and s&d for a while and it still shows 0 contributions.

I'm not sure if it is just completely broken or we are that far behind. If my assumptions are correct, shouldn't at least tally all our wins?

They definitely buffed the Dom points cap way too much. I got a Vulcan with only capping two points and a kill. And I think a guy on the other team got a system hack with only capping two Dom points.

Two questions.

1. Does anyone equip exo suit abilities? I hardly see them used and I just carry extra frags myself.

2. What's the general consensus on the multiplayer? I loathed Ghosts, not just because it was bland as hell, but because its netcode didn't like my connection so it always felt like I was a second behind the action. I'm personally loving AW

1. Have never used any for more than a match or two. Only ones that seem to have any impact is the occasional lapse in concentration and missing someone who is cloaked.

2. Hardcore w/ laserget on it son. The multiplayer is way ahead of Ghosts. No silenced VKS' with that stupid white sight across a full level or target finder LSATs.

I use overclock, shield, and occasionally cloak. Shield and cloak are nice for, if nothing else, helping me stay alive on a cap point for an extra second or two when I need it.

Overclock on shield class to run faster, Hover on pretty much everything else.

what horror the gas

I occasionally run them but forget I have them so don't use them. I will occasionally put hover on my XMGs and when I jump onto a point the enemy is taking I'll hover and rain down bullets. No one expects the mi-air sentry gun man.

Overclock is fun on a run and gun SMG class in domination with overcharged so you can stomp fools. You strafe the gently caress out of people

I actually enjoy it this way, you feel like you get a real reward for point capping. It is easier for me to chain streaks now, but that might mostly be due to hardline and repeated point captures. Had two matches earlier where I got Relentless medals, the first one I nearly hit a Brutal but I was caught off guard while trying to Tac-19 someone by the start of a system hack.

It's also pretty effective if you blow it on the first spawn of a match, you can outdistance most of your team and likely catch a bunch of the enemy team still near their spawn with their hands in their pants :jerkbag:

After I started making a point to use Overclock as soon as I respawn, I learned to use it more effectively in other spots and times, but that first fifteen seconds of a match can really turn out well if you're fast enough and approach from the right angle.

Yeah that's exactly how i use it. Run to their spawn or B. If you run into any head on you just circle them real quick with your zoom speed, kill them, then keep on chugging. A lot of people aren't used to that speed so it's fun. With an SMG and overclock (lightweight if you're feeling overzealous) you're moving

Plus gung-ho and fast hands because gently caress not sprinting. I got points to cap

I also have like a .8 KDR but a million caps so w/e

Slap some machine guns or missiles on it. That's how it's supposed to be used.

Explosive drone is the prox mine, not the assault drone killstreak.

And yes, it's pretty bad, most people have perks to avoid it. I've gotten some decent kills with it by throwing one on points in dom, though.

Is a anyone else loving the ak12? I run it with both grips attached (lol) and a hybrid sight and its a death laser at range and good enough up close that I don't even run a secondary weapon most times. Being able to double up on grips is hilarious and awesome.

Quickdraw grip replaces the grip where you normally hold the gun. Its not like you're wrapping your hands around two foregrips like date night with your boyfriend.

I've got the Elite variant-i think Ripper it's called- that increases Damage and Accuracy and takes about 6 bullets out of the clip for the weird total of 24 in the clip and i love the hell out of it, i normally switch between this gun and the HBra for my AR's.

Describe what you mean by good upclose? Normally the kinda slow fire rate combined with lovely hip fire means i almost always run the Grach with it.
