Having played IQ the fact that drones show up is annoying to no loving end, coupled with the trash white on blue contrast for finding gadgets. Plus, Pulse is gonna know who is nearby just by outlines.

I hope it's a big pop up cage trap. Like you step on it like a Frost trap but instead of downing you it just makes it so you can't walk out of like a 3x3 area, can still shoot and everything.

Reinforced wall that goes on a doorway? I hope not, there is at least one place (bar in Kafe) that only has one entrance.

I like that idea though, depends on the implementation, if it's even that.

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.

I feel like they should have changed Castle's gimmick to this to make him better, so I hope that's not it.

I saw a picture of a one way mirror type thing, might've been on a reinforcement. Could be interesting; useful for telling roamers exactly where someone is, while the other guy does the same for roamers.

Dang, seems kinda strong. Imagine popping that on the garage doors in Chalet. Or the connector walls on Oregon, or any outer wall on Coastguard.
Or hell, even the garage on clubhouse when you pick the bedrooms. One way would be a slaughter.

That sounds rad. Depending on how destructible it is it would make Glaz or Hibana forced picks though. Destroying it would be top priority I wager.

The hole is covered with a bulletproof window, in the new trailer you can see scratches on the glass, and the word Expulsar written on the glass.

Can the glass only be breached by things that can crack reinforced walls, or can you just slap a normal breaching charge on and shatter it? If Thermite/Hibana crack one side of the glass, does it break the whole window?

Will these questions not matter because I'm still just going to slam dunk pick Rook every defense round anyway?

As keyframe and myself have spent enough money on Siege skins to fund Year 2 I believe that makes us Honorary Executive Producers for Siege.

And as our first act we are demanding you put more Elite Skins in the game.

Then fix your game Hard.

Yeah I'm always really excited for marginal characters getting buffed. It can have a bigger effect than just new people.

Well given the steam announcement here: http://steamcommunity.com/games/359550/announcements/detail/483410926969983700

Operator Mira (me and my friends are already calling her "Fiesta" because we can't remember her actual name), has some beef with a certain other operator:

quote:

There are particular tension between her and some Rainbow Six Operators. One of them is Eliza Cohen who she met during Operation Blue Orion, which did not yield the anticipated results. Cohen and Álvarez have been brutal rivals on record ever since.

Eliza Cohen is actually, Ash. So you can probably regular breach the window. Meaning you can Fuze it. Or break through it with Glaz.

I wonder what the ITA12L is supposed to be, a shotgun possibly?

Hopefully it'll take two ash charges to open up, and Fuze and glaz can't break/penetrate it.

IMO There's no right for Blackbeard while his ability is to at some level negate upper body shots. Anything over useless will immediately move into "too strong". I think they made a big mistake putting him into the game, realised it, but don't know how to un-make him in a way that won't piss everyone off.

Yeah I kind of agree, he just kind of throws the basic damage mechanics out the window and it's really just not a good idea.

He'd probably be acceptable if they un-nerfed his guns and left his shield the way it is though.

That shield does not cover any part of his torso I'm pretty sure. It can get weird with angles though. It really only does anything when damage fall off comes into play, or against shotguns.
