Glaz is really fun now, he can one shot low armor guys from close distance

I've always just played him like the sniper in Call of Duty 1/United Offensive in that you can just run around and insta kill people through loose hipshots treating the gun more like a shotgun than a sniper rifle. The damage is so high it lets you get away with it more often than not and nobody expects you to play so aggressively with that operator. When they hear you firing off shots like that they will think you're just busting windows and are a lot farther away than you really are.

No actual fixes for lighting, only mapping workarounds, expect to see a little archway made out of vents placed around each door and window.

Eventually I'm sure they'll get tired of doing it per door/window and will just scale up the model to a ridiculous size and each map will have a giant archway that blots out the sun.

I'm not sure I'd agree with that, echo kinda sucks and is a bit of a lovely way to encourage defenders to be idle and monitoring drones/cams before they get killed, between his 3armour snail's pace clomping around and the fairly large amount of time it takes to get off his phone it's very hard to actually take advantage of his drone in situations where teammates can't help. It basically condemns him to the consolation hell of helping your team by watching cams usually reserved for the shameful idiot who gets themselves killed at the start of the round.This is often me anyway!
Sure, Echo is a bad roamer, but he is not meant to be a roamer. Echo is very good objective defender, and if you have someone watching cameras only after they die then your team is playing like garbage anyways.

Ran into this situation last night:

As Montagne, I had my shield extended and was peeking a hole in a wooden wall. Castle comes along and throws an impact grenade and hits his side of the wall. I took full impact grenade damage instead of having it reduced by the shield.

It definitely didn't hit behind me since it created a big hole to vault through. Is that a glitch or are impact grenades exempt from the explosion reduction for some reason?

It would give people a reason to chuck impacts at shield users for a change rather than downed people/walls if that was the case.

by design, a fully absorbed impact grenade should do about 2 dmg to you.

one time i went to throw an impact grenade around acorner cause we were trying to suppress it (or whatever you call it when you spam entire magazines down a bottleneck) and as i went around i ended up beaming it directly into an enemy's face for an instakill because they ran towards us :supaburn:

The new tchanka shield is pretty amazing.

Was playing a round as Glaz on favela, secure area, with the armory being the area to capture. Their tchanka had set up in that little closet off the armory behind a deployable shield looking back into the armory. Someone on my team had breached the external wall to that closet so the turret was left unmanned.

Queue me hopping on it and mowing down the entire defending team one by one as they try to take me out from using it. Their only hope was a c4 which I think only their pulse had and he didnt last long enough to detonate it once he peeked his head out.

Sometimes i wish i recorded my gameplay.

You pretty much can always do so, unless you play on PC with AMD graphics card.

E: After googling some unrelated stuff, apparently it's been implemented natively on AMD as well, so there's hardly a reason not to be recording at all times.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

Doesn't seem to be working in Siege for me, I wondered if BE was blocking the hotkeys/overlay, but I've seen that others have been able to get it working, did you have to do anything special to get it to play nice with Siege(or rather, for Siege to play nice with it)?

Sure did. Step one was swearing at it for 30 minutes as I couldn't figure out why it was just saving 4kb files to the destination folder. Step two was completely uninstalling all my Radeon software and drivers. Step three was a fresh install, and then it all worked great.

less points per rank means they rank down faster too, so what's the issue?

When you say a fresh install I assume you're talking about running something like DDU and reinstalling drivers? Or do you mean the game?

Already did the former to no avail, poo poo works great in other games though.

I meant the former. If you've tried that, then I'm plum out of ideas. It looks like a bunch of people are having difficulty with it, so I'm sure there will be some fixes real soon.

Old point values were the same as now, just scaled. When they changed the ranking system, they removed the scaling from the rank distribution.
