Suspended 30 minutes for team killing. First guy ran in front of my shot. Second jumped into a room he knew I was Fuzing. First two were complete accidents. I then get blatantly killed by the same guy at the start of next round so I get even and kill him the round after. Booted and suspended. I wish there was a better system in place to detect poo poo like this. I also just need to not play casual because of trash players.

This game was 20buck on Ubisoft so I grabbed it during the overwatch off season. I'm really glad I did, it seems fun as hell so far. The grind for operators and attachments make me REALLY glad that I ponied up the extra 5buck for the standard edition instead of starter.

I'm still bumbling my way through every map and I'm definitely not used to being able to shoot through walls, but twice now I've gotten 4kills when everyone breaches through a door that I wasn't expecting and I hose them down with kapkans SMG and that feels Really good.

Real talk, one of our main siege dudes plays Echo in casual all the time because the drone is insanely useful but doesn't use it in ranked because the bug where the drone changes the direction it's looking at every time you get on/off it will get you killed.

Wait so you knew it'd be your 3rd TK but you still killed him because you just couldn't let him get away with it? You got baited into kicking yourself there.

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.

Valk's shotgun used to be king, and then got nerfed into oblivion. The SMG is okay but the recoil pattern changes wildly between attachments.

I would not be surprised if there wasn't a giant and immediate drop in shotgun use after the semi-auto nerf, especially on Valkyrie players, since you don't have a decent sidearm to use for longer range shots. The only people I see still regularly using shotguns these days are players with a decent sidearm to fall back on (Cav, Smoke, Echo). Attacker shotguns are so rare outside of recruit rushes they're a nonevent.

The Deagle is great at blowing holes in walls and dogshit otherwise, if you get killed by a Deagle it's the sidearm equivalent of teabagging.

Would be nice if Valk's SMG wasn't so weedy at 25 damage although I appreciate the range. Maybe the D-50 is meant to be a sniper handgun but that recoil and animation blocking your view really harm it.

In my defense, I've only had this game a couple of weeks and had no idea there was a suspension for TK.

automatic shotguns work pretty well if you shoot them until you run out of bullets or the thing in front of you is dead/destroyed

i like using valk on experienced teams because once you toss a couple cams up you can roam around and find yourself in some really fun shootouts.

make sure you save one of her cameras though so that when you down an enemy player you can throw it them and catch their soul in your pokeball

Give yokai the ability to both spot enemies and mark (yellow hud thing), boom, echo is good now. Make his spotting not alert enemies to the fact that he has been spotted.

Depends on how much you find yourself playing. If a lot then it is not really needed, otherwise it is a nice shortcut to unlock the DLC operators, and a few cosmetic items here and there.
