Desert Heat? I thought it was Dessert Heat. No wonder it tastes so bad.

Hard, can you punish leavers more? Out of five games tonight I feel like three of them were 4v5.

Edit: At least give a massive point boost if you win a 4v5.

And I just queued into a game where a teammate would knock everyone down to 1hp at the beginning of every round. rip game

I've found that there's often three - not always, though. I'm not sure if that's because I'm (possibly) playing at a different difficulty level, though.

Two on normal, three on hard, four on realistic.

If you find bombers difficult now be glad you weren't fighting them 6 months back or whatever, they ate a huge nerf in one of the patches. Before that, they'd tank like half a clip right into their heads.

I did this and could have stopped it, but nothing in nature ever follows a gaussian curve. Sure, they'll tell you that it does. They say that every five minutes someone dies in a car accident, but how often are there seven hundred and sixty one armless and legless corpses in one hangar?
We were defending on House, they had one guy left. Time was low. Someone calls out that the last guy is outside at banisters.

Three people in a row go outside to try to murder him. They all die horribly. Myself and the other guy at the objective are left. Time gets down to 30 seconds, and then the push comes. With 16 seconds left, my buddy dies and I'm alone. I peek to try and take this guy out, and get shot in the head.

Apparently I'm the rear end in a top hat in this situation, and not the three people who could have sat in the objective and not died horribly.

What?

It's a bug that grenade detonations will spawn an additional detonation on whoever caused them.

Ah well. Having a lot of fun with this game, the mechanics are really fresh and feel pretty deep. Learning all the ways different operators can counter each other.

And the gunplay is top notch. Shooting dudes while upside down rappelling down a building never gets old.

Netcode.
Hacking.
Client side garbage.
Aliens.
Hard!

Take your pick.

Serious answer is that he probably did fire but your client didn't get the info, or didn't display it or whatever and the same with the kill cam. It feels like a crapshoot to ever get the same thing on actual play and a kill cam.

Might have had time to fire a single round while turning. The lovely answer is, don't put all your faith in the killcam. Since it's server hosted it can be funky if any type of latency spike is involved.

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.

The hostage doesn't want to stay with you he'd be more like a drone. But then they'd have to add things to make it so you can scare the hostage into not helping the attackers

The hostage looks/moves toward the defender that went past them last/is closest to them, if I remember right. We were going to actually test that in depth at one point in custom matches but :effort:'d out.

Reminder that Blackbeard's shield used to have 300 hp or something insane. And that semi-automatic shotguns used to be best at long range OHKs.

The Glaz buff is super dumb and unnecessary, like the whole Pulse buff situation, but it's not the worst thing they've put out.

The shield had 800 HP. You had to kill 16 operators with bodyshots to chew through both of them.
