Ostrava posted:Wouldn't an FD operator be hard countered by simply putting a round in any corpses head? pretty much, seems like a silly operator. I can imagine it'd be annoying as an attacker having to give away your position by one-tapping dead bodies in the head, but then I always have suppressed pistols on my attackers for silently taking out cams.

playing with Goons is really good fun. I remember when the group I was playing with loaded into Tower for the first time, and no one knew where to go. I tried crawling into a vent and then a teammate came up behind me and I was trapped inside. It was a pretty hilarious situation, just two dudes crawling around in a tiny vent.

Minrad posted:don't forget zofia and ela being partially resistant to each others stun grenades, because "The operators with stun grenades have 50% resistance to all sources of stun" at least makes some gameplay sense, unlike the self-res or the stun mine detonate. The ~lore~ justification is still  though.

Lemon-Lime posted:"The operators with stun grenades have 50% resistance to all sources of stun" at least makes some gameplay sense, unlike the self-res or the stun mine detonate. it's like when Batman went up against Bane and threw his little LSD boomerangs and Bane shrugged it off, saying he was trained by Ra's al Ghul as well, so he knew how to steel himself against the effects. Zofia and Ela have both had lots of experience being stunned with the concussion mines, so I dunno why the lore is laughably bad, it makes sense to me. Cops go through training where they get voluntarily pepper sprayed, so if out in the real world it happens, they know what to expect and can keep some of their composure. I really hate when I play as Zofia and it's 2v1, and my teammate and I have the guy cornered and I slam about 5 stun grenades into him, and my teammate just sits there despite me shouting over mic "rush him he's stunned". Feels bad. I end up rushing but it's easier for him to react since he saw the direction the grenades came from. Way more tacticool for a teammate to zergrush from a different direction.

Every operator should have a down ability. An extra toxic babe for Smoke, self immolation for Capitão, Thermite burning through the floor like an alien, needle candy drop by Googuy, Twitch still being able to operate a drone.

Lemon-Lime posted:Zofia should really lose the impact grenades and the self-revive, four concussion nades on a launcher is good enough as an operator ability. Her emblem is a phoenix so I suspect that the revive was her original ability. I wouldn't be surprised if the number of grenades get reduced though.

people are still MLG enough to own your poo poo in despite being concussed. I've been killed 9 times out of 10 even if the guy I'm rushing is concussed. am I doing it wrong? the kill cam shows him completely blurred out and drunk but he can still hit my head easily

Well the gun doesn't get dizzy. If he was looking in your general direction he can spray when he sees you, you need to suprise him somehow.

Krogort posted:Her emblem is a phoenix so I suspect that the revive was her original ability. Yeah, that's my suspicion as well. It's still bad, though, since it's an unexplained edge-case ability that's also so bad you'll use it to good effect maybe once in a hundred games if that. Her having four concussion nades is completely fine and the only thing she should have. Ditch the impact grenades on her gadget (if you really want her to have impact grenades so she can open walls before conc nading a room, make that one of her grenade choices, there's no reason why they should be 100% exclusive to defenders).

Same reason nobody follows up on the flashbangs they toss into rooms. 90% of the time you're gonna get shot by a guy who isn't blind at all.

Yeah, I play her a bunch, but the flashbangs are unreliable as hell. Sometimes everything lines up just right and you can just leisurely walk through an entire blinded room and dispatch everyone with ease. But most of the time the room layouts work out such that anybody who's blinded can often just hunker down for long enough that they'll be able to see again by the time you actually manage to get to them. That is if they're even affected in the first place.

every time the topic of flashbangs comes up, I wanna yell at Ubi to buff them with a deafening radius so defenders have a tinnitus effect that basically makes it real hard for them to hear if you're rushing them for 5s or so. I'm also pretty sure just turning to look away from a flashbang and having your vision unscathed is a little weird, but whatever, it's more believable than having a flashbang go off right at your feet and still being able to hear the pitter patter of angry attacking feet like it's no problem.
