i would play this game more if gunshots didn't make such a loud noise when you got hit. like seriously the loud grunts your character makes and the sound of when you actually get hit arent needed and it actually scares the gently caress outta me every time

M4 body hit impact power is less than half of all the other rifles so it won't cause them to flinch much...

Is there flinching in this game? I know there's an animation for getting hit from the third person but it seems like it doesn't actually affect the person getting shot's ability to aim. I mean hell, you can get popped up in the air by a grenade in this game and still be aiming at your target.

Who knows if it even works correctly. I've been headshot with a Kar98k after popping two AR shots into the head of a level 3 wearing man.

I just got a bug where my 4x scope didn't render on my gun for about 20 seconds of attempts. Just saw the top of the gun when I went to pull the scope up- it wasn't that I was too close to a wall or anything either, because the whole gun was visible. Anyone seen this? Lost a round because of it (though it was 4v1... but I'm still blaming the bug)

I've had this happen while in a vehicle a few times, ADSing again usually fixed it but one time it didn't, maybe swapping weapons will make it work again, but unless you're trying to make a very long range shot you should still be able to approximate the middle of your screen and shoot dudes ok.

$50 a win. That feels painfully expensive, but on the flip side that isn't much money for the booster if it ends up taking 10 or more games to complete.
I could see there being a market for people that want to impress their friends that also play.

I need something stronger.

With 100 players and a separate Elo for solo/duo/squad + region, it'll take quite a few games for it to actually close in on your actual Elo score. Resetting it every season seems bad.

Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Also, there is no plural when the context is an argument with an individual rather than a group. Somfin shouldn't put words in my mouth.

Yeah, the discord squad channels have a max of four people, so your discord experience can be whatever you want it to be. The thread is dumb. The Discord has a place for everyone, good or bad, nice or not, introvert or extrovert.

Don't let the thread autists drive you away, with nearly 500 people, there's always someone who is interested in playing the way you want to play.

I'd like a seasonal system alongside a constant one. It would be fun to mix it up with everybody playing from time to time.

If you stop playing for a few days, do you start dropping to a lower mmr? or is it just that the more active players will raise their mmr? This is important to me because I played a TON the first week I got it, and figured out playing like a coward would get me to the top 10 relatively frequently against lovely players, and now I'm playing against dudes that actually know how to shoot a gun and use cover and i'm being universally demolished. Like going 50 games without a top 10 finish, or a whole night with like 1-2 kills.

Other players are giant bags of loot, and if they kill you first, you can't win. I'm not saying be rambo, but taking opportunities when they present is probably a good idea

You start dropping not from actual decay but because the bar for good players who are still playing gets raised, does that make sense?

It sounds like you figured out what most people sau in this thread: its easy to hide and get decent finishes but you aren't learning to fight and are raising your mmr past where you're good enough to kill people.

Stop hiding, learn to shoot all the guns, have fun!!
