The Chinese defender gets better wall reinforcements that turn them into unbreachable/shootable walls even to Thermite, because they're tiny Great Walls.

If you go by the in-game description the Canadians they didn't even have one until 92, can't believe there's a CTU out there that's as old as i am.

A wiki posted:

The Special Emergency Response Team (SERT) was the RCMP counter-terrorism unit which existed until 1993. Its duties were then taken by the Canadian Forces in the form of Joint Task Force Two (JTF-2).

SERT was formed in the 1980s, but its history can be traced back to the Emergency Response Team (ERT) that took shape in 1976 as a Hostage And Rescue Patrol unit (HARP). The primary reason for the creation of the SERT team was that at the time neither the regional police SWAT teams, nor the ERT teams were properly equipped for counter-terrorism activities. Members were drawn from the country's various ERTs and recruits were subjected to a physically and mentally grueling selection process.

SERT was disbanded, reportedly, due to conflicts between the RCMP and certain agencies within the Canadian government about the lethal mandate of the team, and the RCMP's directive to save and protect life. During the transition between SERT and JTF-2, RCMP operators from SERT were used as subject matter experts and as members of the training staff. Training and handover of operations took place at Dwyer Hill. The RCMP still maintains a national network of special operations units called the Emergency Response Team, usually aligned with the Force's geographic divisions. (i.e., "F" Division covers Saskatchewan; "D" Division covers Manitoba.)

They don't take several shots to kill, but they really should. There's little point in DBNO existing if the enemy can just kill you with one more shot before you even get a chance to move.

That would actually be really neat, let her hack one camera if she can get close enough to it with her gadget(don't think it should require proper line of sight), it wouldn't be great on all maps, but on stuff like house it would be really good.

I paired up with a couple of solid dudes during ranked queues and one of them suggested the best Japanese operator. His gadget is ninja boots and he puts them on and you can't hear him walk or run while they are on, but while they are on barbed wire damages him. Hahaha.

The directional sound in this game is generally sort of ok, but it seems to function as if it's basically a singular sound path, which is occasionally loving horribly misleading.

I just had an instance of the sound taking an odd path through a busted wall and indicating that someone was in a completely different direction.



The door wasn't barricaded or anything, so the sound of the guy shuffling around should have just gone over the upturned table and straight to me, but instead took the scenic route, and I got killed because I actually paid attention to the sound.

Yeah. Make it so it takes 5-6 shots to reduce the bleed out meter from 100-0, that way you might actually have the time to survive some dude randomly spraying in your direction long enough to actually use the ability to move when downed.

Team killers & grouped up bullies are the worst part of the game. It sucks when some 3 squad team kills you & then vote kicks you, and you can't really do anything about it because they have the majority of the votes on the team. Sucks when I'm solo queuing too, because Im generally very chill and just like to play and try to win. Had a group demand I unmute my mic or be shot, as if they had never heard of push to talk, and of course they teamkilled me anyways and then spent the entire round trying to vote kick me but failing somehow and then we lost.

I've seen a lot more teamkilling & leaving in general lately and it stinks because finding matches isnt as easy on PS4 as I imagine it is on PC.

Yeah but seriously, turn on your mic. One nice thing about being the 3/5ths majority is you can get rid of the players who think this is a game where you just go do your own thing. I don't want to get killed over and over because you're a weak tissue paper of a player who can't even communicate where they've been killed from.

An ingame means of reporting people seems like it's sorely needed, for both the sort of poo poo you experienced as well as for flagging cheaters.

Earlier today we bumped into a guy who's ranked K:D was 15.0, and who started one of the rounds by running outside and snap-headshotting everyone with a pistol as soon as their head was unobstructed.

Also after pulling off some nice shots with a pistol recently, I'm half tempted to try playing with just a pistol to see how good I can get.

I played a ranked match against a guy who I was pretty convinced was walling. He walked out of the plane and snap-headshotted all of us on match point so I sent Ubisoft a support question with his account name and the timestamp of the match. They said the information was forwarded to their security team.

I definitely agree they need an in-game report solution but until then you at least have some recourse. All in all it took me about 5 minutes of my time and even a tiny chance of that fuckstick getting a ban is worth it imo.

They seriously need to implement some kind of penalty for leaving in Casual. Every game is turning into "Round starts, one side loses a man, half the team that is now down a man quits because there is no penalty". After the first round exodus, maybe you get some guys who come and play the next round. Maybe it doesn't fill your slots for a round or two! Maybe the guys who get slotted in see that they're already down rounds and just leave before the next round and you're hosed anyway!

Failing that, maybe add something to the equivalent of DotA's Low Priority queue, where if you're a shitter you get shunted into a special queue where you only play with other game leaving shitters.
