Lemon Curdistan posted:I'm pretty sure shields block knifes by design, or at least I've had people try to knife me from slightly to the side and bounce off with an audible thwack. It's cool. The trick is they do, but when you're just holding a shield they stagger the person with the shield. The thing with that video is that the animation of putting away the shield intercepted the knife kill.

Putting your shield away on your back actually protects your back as it would your front while holding it if I remember correctly.

For some reason, I haven't been able to get into a game in the last 24 hours, it keeps throwing me matchmaking errors after 2 minutes of waiting to find an opposite team.

Yep, and when reloading you put the shield to your side, which is why i usually angle myself if i need to make a reload, It's saved me a few times where they've just unloaded into my shield whilst i was reloading my revolver.

Looks like I fixed my matchmaking error by just cycling my router. Here's a random idea to make Buck more appealing: make his shotgun do more damage to barricades/walls/Castlecades. It should be able to shatter wodden barricades in one shot, take out bigger chunks of wall and maybe even break chunks off Castlecades like grenades do (but one chunk per shot).

Don't believe their lies(?).Lemon Curdistan posted:Looks like I fixed my matchmaking error by just cycling my router. As the resident Buck player of our group, I have found his shotgun to be both incredibly good (like on par with the Super 90 good) and also the hottest garbage worse than the Saiga. There's no rhyme or reason to it either, I can shotgun two people from the exact same distance and one goes down in one shot and the other takes the entire magazine and skullfucks me for my trouble.

That's a huge Blitz buff, not sure he needed both a smaller head AND a bigger shield.

Can't really comment about that sorry but as it stands right now hardcore is a HUD preset available in custom games. It turns off a bunch of UI elements. Nothing you couldn't turn off manually in the HUD preferences but it forces them to whoever is joining your custom game.

Even if it were consistently a very good weapon, part of the issue with him is it just doesn't bring very much to the team right now. It's not a bad special ability, but he's competing with all the operators who do bring something teamwork/entry-related to the game, which is why I think making it do more damage to walls etc. would make him better. e; good patch, by the way. Nice to see so many bugfixes.

That's kinda where I'm at with Buck and why I hope I have a moment where he clicks and I get it like I did with Glaz. Like yeah he has a good variety of ways to commit Murder Most Foul at various ranges but eh.

Glaz's ability to shoot through stuff that no one else can means he's a lot more useful to the team as a whole than Buck, really.

Buck is good for finishing fights after you both expend your primary ammo. Defender goes for his pistol, Buck toggles masterkey. I still think Twitch / Sledge / Fuze perform the role of "semi-expendable point man" better.

Buck would be more useful if he could masterkey through castle barricades.

Did anyone ever math out how bad a hit the silencers are to your TTK? I've seen the spreadsheet that got linked around a while back but it didn't have silencers on it and clearly showed that the in-menu damage is a complete lie, so there's no way of guesstimating what silenced damage would be based on those damage numbers.

If watching ESL last weekend was any indication, the quality of the operator weapon makes the biggest impact. You can definitely afford to trade weaker gadgets for better weapons. One guy ran a bunch of Kapkan on defense and went 13-3 with him and another team consistently picked IQ. If you can kill mans faster because the gun is better you should probably do it, in competitive anyway.

If they're going to do this, they need to give Defense the option to take grenades, because nitro with a 5 second arm time would be useful for nothing but knocking out walls between bomb sites.
