Our group of ex-CoD guys (Hackan Slash, closer, Bionic Colon, I'm a Doctor IRL) just chicken dinnered TWICE in a ROW in squads.

I used to play CoD with you guys on Xbox 360. Do you guys play on the Discord in the OP? My XBL name is OnDeathsTrail but I play as Shotgoon on most PC stuff.

Why would you have a gigantic map and make the spawn rate for 4x and 8x scopes (which are basically necessary for interplay on a map that size) utter poo poo

Also why in the blue unholy gently caress are there 4 pistols and 3 different pistol magazines when pistols are used for under a min and magazines are completely irrelevant

Because if everyone always had scopes like that the game would just turn into constant distance battles and sniper fights?

And I've done the squad two in a row chicken dinner thing exactly once. Now I've gotten three chicken dinners in a 24 hour period a few times, but I have my highs and lows where I don't chicken dinner for like a week.

Hmm yes catering to a small fickle minority of your player base who will eventually ditch your game to glom on to the next hot game to stream is a good thing. Checks out.

Getting nerds to jump to the next hot game is very very good for business because then they are used to spending all the time

See: cod, assassin's creed, battlefield, every other yearly game

Gta and bethesda games make a poo poo tonne and are very very good sure but why make a load of money every 5 years when you can make it every year. Encouraging players to jump to the next hot game is excellent for business

If you dont get streaming, consider that millenials and kids dont watch tv any more and when they do they stream it off the internet and an hour show is actually an hour, not an hour of show and 45 minutes of ads

All that free time gotta go somewhere and that somewhere is youtube and twitch

They could try doing something like making it run off of 7.62 and up it's damage but keep its trajectory the same.

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.
Had some good games with WBG, Bobzor and Linstar. Chicken dinnered AND killed 28 people as a team. Feels good man.

It's not, not really. 9x39 is basically the speed and weight of .45 ACP but with armor penetration. Also UMP/VSS are almost identical in terms of damage and since they hosed over the Vector's damage they'd have to use the 1911 as the baseline damage to emulate.

The fact that he Zapruders the footage for like 20 minutes is just icing on the cake.

Use the pistol mags for ammo, and have it place in slot 3 as opposed to 1 & 2.

Pistols and pistol mags are everywhere and then some, quickdraw at least is obscenely easy to find. And if the spawn rate for the VSS is really as lovely as it's been for me, then being a superscope pistol and having easy access to mag accessories is a reasonable balance.

But to clarify, leave it in the sniper spawn pool.

Literally all he needs to do is put a three minute delay on his stream and he will never get stream sniped again. Deal with it like everyone else.

How do you miss the "without making it too powerful" mark this badly?

It would make it's downside of a long reload time and small ammo pool so easy to overcome that it would be pointless having those downside in the first place.

The VSS is probably the only non-crate gun in the game that makes a quickdraw worth picking up because of it's incredibly low damage, ammo pool, and high reload, and is probably has it's viability affected the most by an extended/ex-quickdraw(maybe the vector ties with it?), which makes use of the rarer SR mags a good thing.

And letting people run around with a third very strong weapon would be OP as hell, especially considering the built in perks it has(4x, suppressed), maybe the case could be made for something like the vector or uzi(if they couldn't have upgrades while in that slot) but even then that would likely be pushing it too far.

A bit more damage, maybe make sniper mags a bit more common and pistol mags a bit less, bam done.

A 20% damage bump would take it from 35 damage to 42, which would just bring it to 1-shot territory on an unarmored headshot while still taking 3 unarmored body shots.

It should have some limitations in exchange for coming suppressed and taking a common ammo type, and the projectile speed combined with the inability to put an 8x on or adjust the zero distance achieve that well, I think, but it should not be strictly worse than a silenced UMP (which it currently is).

Heck, I was more proud of a game where he died early and then I picked up 4 Uzi kills.

Grimmmz is an idiot nerd but you also went all CSI Miami to find out who popped a tire on a car full of dudes that we were trying to murder. It was me, I regret nothing.

He's worse though because he kept it up for ages trying to find proof that the guy he was looking at was totally cheating when he got bootyblasted by someone else entirely.

Watched the intro, saw him get shot from the right, got really confused at his confused face and sudden talk of the guy in front cheating.
For someone who plays the game as much as he does you would think he'd learn where shots comes from.

Edit: lol he refuses to listen to the chat talking about being shot from the right.

Never takes ownership over the fact he stood up for no reason. If he cared about improving he would realize that his shots not registering (if that even happened) is meaningless when he wastes over 5 bullets before getting on target Likewise, getting killed in 3 shots due to a bug doesn't mean poo poo when an AK can kill in 2 through a lvl3 helm. Bugs or not he could have learned a lesson here, instead he had a teary.
