You can shoot regular breach charges too but they're not so obvious. I've gotten a few from listening to sound cues, though.

Is there any way to do a standard hunt on the university map without all the yellow fog? I like the layout of the map but hate that you cant see 5 feet in front of you.

I gotta play with some Goons. It's so infuriating to set up a good line of sight, and have pubbies wiggle side-to-side in front of you.

Isn't it just the bank map with some slight alterations anyway? Plan Z posted:I gotta play with some Goons.

I like when they do this while I'm firing bursts down a hallway and then complain about friendly fire.

Thermite is a bad un-barred wall breacher anyways because the long cutting animation is a huge giveaway that you are coming in from that direction. That being said, Thermite with additional breaching charges is great for anyone that wants a direct, linear path to the objective

Of course I'm joking, plowing your way through six walls is the best way to announce exactly where you are coming from. I do wish that you could pick hostage or bomb mode rather than having it playlisted; you have to approach hostage way differently than bomb

You can. Also Sledge is the way to go for making a path to the objective, and he still gets frags.

Another word of warning: Despite what you may think, putting a cluster charge directly on top of the hostage will not make the grenades go "everywhere but on top of the hostage because it shoots them out to the sides". You know who you are.

I may be biased because of always picking Sledge, but I think Sledge may be the most underrated attacker. There is always a Mute on defense, so he's great for breaching. You get frag grenades, and two of the best weapons in the L85 and the Mac-11, which are both headshot machines.

I saw in the news that putin is calling for a broad unified international cooperative against terrorism. If that's not the perfect setup for the coolest Rainbow 6 campaign story ever, I don't know what is. It's just too bad Ubisoft killed this franchise after Raven Shield.

OctaMurk posted:Still thinking about buying this or Squad but I haven't been able to decide yet especially since I have finals and poo poo for the next two weeks. Evolve died really fast, so far do you guys see longevity in this game, like do you think any of you will be playing it two months from now? This game isn't really like Squad at all in terms of the core gameplay. Get whichever one interests you more, large open engagements with mixed units, or a small, tight team shooter. Either of these games could be dead two months after release. For Siege, I haven't really seen evidence that Ubisoft has good anti-cheat technology in place, and that's often the death of otherwise solid shooters that don't have private servers. For Squad, it's just entering early access with a development team that's mostly former BF2 modders, projects like these stall out or implode often and easily.

I've ranted at length about this to you guys I've been playing with, but for the thread: the SMG-11 is absolutely insane, use it. It shits out rounds incredibly fast and drops people even faster, with so little recoil it's, as Kadd says, a headshot machine. I treat it as my primary when I play anyone SAS.

Siege uses FairFight, so basically the same as BF4 and such. PB is a joke and so is VAC 3, the only things that keep cheating in check on a large scale are systems like FairFight and CS:GO's Overwatch. Also, it's obviously not something you see publicized but there's already been a fairly big number of bans in Siege. Mainly through FairFight screenshots, but still.

So only one person in a party has to be level 20 for the entire party to be able to play ranked. Regardless, nobody is loving playing it.

Okay, working my way through the Situations and, surprise surprise, I am very bad at this game. Got through the first two on Realistic, but then I had to bump it down to Normal for the next two. Not even going to attempt online yet. Kinda regretting unlocking Glaz since "long range" isn't really a big thing in this game. Also because I'm still bad. Still having fun though. Just gotta adjust those twitch shooter instincts some more.

It's a two-hit kill. And at close range it has a high enough ROF that you can still hipfire and hope for the best.

Glaz's gun is super good and being able to accurately pop a guy inside a room from outside it at range is useful more often than I expected. I've taken to mainly playing him on attack except on a few maps.Dvsilverwing posted:He has 5 or 6 VAC banned accounts on Steam and looking the name up in Google results in multiple videos with him blatantly cheating in various games (seems like a couple from the CoD franchise anyway).

On the airplane map I had a match where glaz sat outside all game and forced us all to crawl everywhere, and 4 minutes in I figured he must have gotten bored of sitting out there and stood up and got instantly shot in the head. It was pretty effective I guess?
