Tags not obeying gravity is just another example of how poo poo this game is.

I kinda of like having to ninja my way up walls to grab tags, but I play on PC and its very rare I can find a KC match.

I like how you never actually sight up around corners, you just don't sprint.

Also you never went into the center of Breach until you got a little saucy at the very end of the round.

When I want to have fun, I use the SVG. When I want to top the score and maybe win, I use the Man O War. It seems like a pretty good trade off.

What do you run on the Man O War out of interest? I've never got comfortable with any particular setup on that gun, despite spending a lot of time with it.

Out of curiosity, what is your FOV set to, and what was the default number?
I always get Quake/TF2 vibes when I see a FOV like that.

Lady Naga

I think the default is 60 like the consoles, mine's 110 (which is about the highest you can comfortably use at 16:9)

The max is 120 iirc

I destroyed a power core today :aaaaa:

They placed it on their spawn in Nuketown and I tried to get there, but then I died... and the spawns flipped! I was praying that the stupid pubby next to me wouldn't destroy it, but I got the credit! It looks like it takes 4 rockets to destroy, so I should run an LMG + FMJ more often.

4 more to go :(

I got some power cores in care packages. I have no idea how to use them. I just plop them down somewhere and something happens?? I don't get why it's such a high scorestreak.

From what I can gather it will instantly down enemy scorestreaks (not sure about mothership) and keeps the enemy from calling them in. It's basically a giant gently caress you to the other team.

Here's a gif I found while looking into it.

When you prestige, do you start earning unlock tokens again like normal and have to unlock everything same as the first go-around (other than your permanent), or do they stay assigned to what you unlocked before when you leveled up, and those just become available at the right level?

Ah ok. I just randomly plopped it down and destroyed a UAV and got a couple of EMP assists. But I had no idea what it actually did.
