you've never encountered someone running hibana shotgun/pistol setup for the lols yet in ranked games, have you?

flashes in general are considered "broken" comedy options by most of the ppl that play this game even though they work well enough imo.

e: simply bringing them into a match can cause tryhards to rage - they're the same kind of ppl in cs:go that sperg out about eco rounds and the exact optimal guns to buy using a highly upvoted flowchart @ silver II

One time a guy got super mad and teamkilled me (in casual) because I was using the P90 as Doc. I just thought it looked pretty. v:shobon:v

lol i put an extended barrel on it and apparently that isn't the correct method of using an insanely high firerate according to the people that somehow are experts at GIGN defense

i like how you can put an acog on it but nobody cares because it isn't jager

i used a p90 with an acog on it accidentally as doc one time and i got like 3 headshot kills and 1 body kill so it seems fine to me. any gun that takes an acog and is accurate on the first shot is 'fine' from a usability standpoint

I no joke unlocked rook as my first operator because I saw he has a p90 and I think it's a pretty gun. Red dot and extended barrel because I was a little noob.

I should give the p90 another whirl with ACOG though. Saturate the air with bullets, get headshots now and forever.

Aside from the p90, the mp7 and the 416-c,are there any other Defense weapons that can use ACOGs?

I've always used the P90 because of the larger mag size and because headshots are 1 shot no matter the gun. I have had trolls TK me in casual for other egregious choices though, like when I had to grab a drink and was Recruit for a defense round and a teammate started lighting me up in voip about how I didn't have a gadget and we were doomed, he got picked by glaz early and I nearly aced and saved the round. The next attack round I picked recruit just because I like iron sights and he TK'd me at spawn without saying anything, and then was quiet in voip for the rest of the match

Usually trolls are teenagers and it's obvious from their voice but then you get the odd 30 year old guy who sounds like he's drinking and just yells racist poo poo, but I guess that's every online game ever

It being a goddamn bullet hose is the reason it owns.

Slap an ACOG on it and you can just fill a hallway with death, one of them is bound to hit them in the head.

If opfor isn't bashing their heads against an impregnable wall like it's Constantinople in 717, you're not defending properly.

Why am I automatically connecting to the west coast data center if I'm an hour and a half from Atlanta? The whole loving server has 140+ pings.

It's weird because playing with 220ms feels better than playing with 120ms, even if the player on the receiving end has ~40-60ms. In the Brazil server Ash, Jager and Bandit are a nightmare to deal with. While in the US servers they are much more manageable.

idk if i should be posting about this but apparently someone figured out how apply the doc infinite syringe glitch concept to spawn multiple tachanka turrets

so in theory you could setup enough turrets for everyone in the match

also in case anyone didnt know this already, experienced tachanka players can use their turret to legit block doors and some ladders :ssh:

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?
