Gadzooks! I'm terrified of this little child who is going to stab me with a knife. I must wrest the knife away from his control and therefore gain the upperhand.
I feel like armor provides too much resistance.

I won my first and only solo game. I only saw 4 people and I killed them all. 2 with the revolver, 1 with a molotov and the last kill I rushed a dude with my tomahawk. pretty cool

The good thing is it seems like for once these betas are actual betas and they're taking complaints into account.

40% at level 1, from what I hear. Goes up to 50% at 2, then 55% AND Headshots at 3.

At least it breaks.

He's on a console so there's more or less no settings you can change. Unfortunately, PC game makers don't just tell players with bad computers to upgrade or suffer the bad FPS.

Idk about grass, but trees sure get a downgrade after 100m. Look through a sniper scope and it's Minecraft-vision. That said they just look like poo poo, you can still hide behind them.

:downs: I don't feel too awful about last night since I'm still learning the map and how everything works. Took half a dozen matches before I learned to glide proper. Also I said gently caress it to work today so I'll be on this morning until the beta ends if anyone is around for grouping.

We usually just use the group and party chat.

e: Beta was extended for a couple of hours to allow for 100 players if any PS4 goons are on me and Coltron are playing.

With headphones, it's really, really easy to determine the direction and distance of enemy combatants.

Honestly, I had issues with the game’s audio all beta. The directional audio was fine (I could always tell where the shots / steps are coming from) but I feel the proximity/loudness was off. Awareness makes this way worse to the point where I rather not use it because it feels like someone is right next to me but no they’re still pretty loving far. Also the audio from your own movement not being the exact same audio you generate is incredibly loving stupid game design and should be fixed before launch. So just because you don’t hear yourself when crouched doesn’t mean your opponent can still clearly hear you crouching.

I had audio issues, too. I'd be in the parking deck at Construction and I'd hear people two or three floors up as if they were next to me.

It only got worse with awareness.

Yes, but you can have true surround sound with console and speakers.

Edit: My bad I forget that not everyone has a surround sound system. I had no problem telling direction, distance was hosed for a lot of stuff, but was great for footsteps (other than team mates).

ya, I had already edited my post. Easy solution would be for console players to just connect headphones to their controller. I have done this and the fake surround sound works great. Not that they will.

Along with all the other sound stuff, I noticed way more ambient garbage noise than in any other past CoD game, which is also louder than anything else.
