Nah, the pistol now two-shots anyone so you can run around with laser sight on it and interrogate one after another with little to no effort. Before that I'd see one interrogation every couple of games, now 3 interrogations per round is normal sight.

Two shots within 10 metres or whatevs. It's still not that OP, most guns down in two shots at that range.

Caveira is more likely to get killed mid-interrogation more often than not from what I've seen.

She's a fun way to play peekaboo while roaming from cover to cover instead of sitting on the objective. I think players are generally focused on using her for harassment tactics than really supporting their team through repeatedly pinging enemy locations. If you're seeing her get away with it more than twice a round I think you're lucky because from my experiences going for a downed player has been a really high risk when compared to just finishing them off.

I just ran into this weird thing on a defend the hostage mission on the new map. Playing as bandit, the last three enemies in the first wave stopped working. I waited about 30 seconds, peeked a corner, and there were two of them just aiming an intact destructible wall. I killed them, and about 20 seconds later, the third guy appears from whereever and I shoot him.

Next round, clear down to two baddies, and the game just stalls out. They don't appear anywhere, even when I spend a couple minutes looking for them across the entire map.

The things I do to clear my challenge lists.

I would say that the problem might be on their end but if you can't hear ANYONE it might be that your voice chat volume is turned off? Which platform are you on ?

Voice chat volume is pretty much universally hosed in Siege unless you mic boost the utter crap out of your microphone. Which generally isn't possible if you're using a microphone that runs through USB.

I sent an email to the maker of my headset (Kingston HyperX Cloud II) and they basically said "Yeah, poo poo is broken in Siege, sorry dude, it's a developer thing."

No, Pulse is the only one to see the bleep on his sensor. Same concept applies to IQ's scanner. Use your (currently broken) voicechat!

Draxion posted:

Lots of people have garbage mics they didn't bother setting up at all, and so will end up whining at you at volumes inaudible to the human ear. If you NEVER hear voice chat, make sure you haven't muted it or something.

Pulse doesn't mark enemies, as far as I know. Hit Z to point at them, though in my experience people don't pay attention to those at all.
Thanks for the responses. I feel like a right idiot for most of those Cardiac sensor assists now, but I've also had good results pressing Z.

I'm playing on PC in Europe, so people using voice chat is especially rare. But the icon shows up and I never hear the other players. I have looked through the settings and voice is not muted, but I can't find an individual volume slider for it. iirc other players can hear me.

I'd trade it all for just a little more.

No mention in here of the freezing bug? 3 to 5 times a round the game freezes solid for 3ish seconds, usually for everyone, sometimes teammates mention it and I'm not frozen),

played 10 ranked matches yesterday, new operators are awesome. Getting hit by that drone WRECKS you. The 10 games seemed well layed out, each match got progressively harder, we won 9 in a row, the 10th game had us up against some guys that were around level 280 I think. Saltiest team I'd ever played. 3 of us were diamonds, 2 of us were plat 3's, they not only stomped us, but no one on our team got more than 1 kill, and these guys did not drone nor did they rush. If I wasn't on console I would have a hard time believing they weren't cheating. Crazy good.

I do not hear you, I do not see you, I will not let you get into the Duggler's head with your bring-downs.

If you have been unable to hear in game VoIP i found the solution today

Ubisoft or something else has messed with your playback settings. You'll need to right click your volume on the taskbar, hit playback. Once here, right click on the correct playback device and hit "set as default communications device".

You might also have to go into the uplay overlay, find the settings tab and make sure your speakers are on the correct device there as well.

Speaking of freezing, I was in a pre-made with goons and another friend. We were on the second or third round of Skyscraper when the game froze, for the entire team, before crashing to desktop. I didn't think to hit the record button afterward so I'm not very helpful.

By premade do you mean custom with 10 players? Customs have a player acting as host, if poo poo happens to him, everybody else will get hit.

Also, sorry PS4, No Hibana for you until further notice. It also means exclusivity will be pushed back. Don't shoot the messenger. I'm about to sleep at work anyways.

quote:

On PS4, we have been investigating a FPS drop to 0 that occurs when Hibana uses her unique gadget for the first time in any round. When this freeze happens, it lasts for several seconds and impacts players randomly in the match. We have worked very hard on potential fixes for this issue, including replacing her gadget, but unfortunately we do not have a solution to this issue that we are satisfied with and can push immediately.
At the moment, the only option to restore a playable gameplay experience is to disable Hibana from the Operator rotation on PS4 until we are able to deploy a partial solution for this issue on Tuesday, November 22nd with the patch 5.1 that significantly reduces the occurrence of the freezing. We are aiming to have her restored for Season Pass owners on this date as well, with this partial fix.
Obviously, this is a difficult decision, but it is necessary to ensure that players have uninterrupted matches. As this impacts Season Pass players the most, we will be extending the exclusivity period for only Hibana on PS4 for every day that she is not in the rotation. We will also be activating a 50% Renown boost for every player (including non-season pass owners) on PS4, starting today until Hibana works as intended and we deploy a final fix.
Echo will not be delayed, and will be unlockable for non-Season Pass owners on the previously scheduled date of November 24th. We will keep you updated on Hibana’s availability for non-Season Pass owners as soon as we have a full resolution for this issue.
We apologize for this inconvenience and we hope you understand as we work restore functionality of Hibana on PS4. Please know that this is our top priority, and we are working around the clock.

Good patch overall Hard. With Hibana, can you make it so she doesn't auto put away her charge gun when you fire the third shot, wasting that time between shooting the wall and having to switch back and wait out the long animation lock before being able to start the absurdly long detonation time on her charges is :suicide:

New lighting system for windows means I don't get shot from the dark void/surface of the sun which is rad! Keep up the good work. Also the sound Yokai makes when it fires is glorious.

Same thing just happened with an entirely different group. Someone used Hibana's thing and the game crashed for everyone.

The lag is horrible this patch, rubberbanding everywhere and so are the enemies. It seems kind of like infrequent packet loss.

Still enjoying the hell out of the game, played a ton of matches and won almost all of them. 3-0'd some salty racist douchebags on Bank, I went 8-0 and then their teammate left and joined us, she kicked rear end in all subsequent matches. Game owns. :getin:
