Want easy kills at an objective? Stand outside a window with a shield and just pick off everyone in the room. Cant flank, cant shoot legs, so its a turkey shoot. Just line up and ADS instant HS. Anyone tries to rush up on you that can have nitro, just back up. Rinse, repeat. Also, recruit and shield is a great option since you can carry frags as well as picking your handgun.

Having a recruit with frags and a shield almost feels like cheating. Almost.

Orv posted:It'd invalidate two characters because Tachanka's LMG is a two shot to the chest which means just aim at the middle of the shield and remove a character from their team, so no. Something should be done with Tachanka, but it isn't that. So? That means shield users can't just walk through levels easily anymore and teams will have another thing to look out for. If teams do look out for him then they can just do what they usually do and shoot him through a wall. It gives him a purpose as it gives another counter to shields that isn't reliant on a nade and he's still vulnerable to a team that actually scouts. What's not to like?

Nalesh posted:Another thing that could skew it is that fuze doesn't need to use a shield, he has an assault rifle and an lmg too. and this is ubisoft so they probably didn't account for that. They did account for it. When they released the full infographic they said they ignored all the stats pertaining to fuze because he wasn't 100% a shield operator and also had the cluster bombs.

God drat on PS4 it's like I have to choose between not being able to shoot for poo poo or not being able to turn for poo poo (can't play on PC any more due to the carpal). What sensitivity settings are you guys using? I'm doing okay with 3 vertical 4 horizontal, 10-7 deadzone, 20 ADS. But still feelin like I can't get my head around fast enough to check behind me. Besides that, this piece of buggy and horrible and stupid matchmaking hell is like, the germ of a dream tactical shooter. I really hope the community takes off and they continue to support and tighten up this thing, because it is fun as fuuuuuuuck PSN is yellowjournalism and I'll be on later tonight to shewt dewds

Dead Like Rev posted:A lot, letting him shoot through the glass? Fine. letting him pen the entire shield? Thats lame and would make for bad gameplay and make the lovely character drastically overpowered. I wasn't really a fan of the penetration idea to begin with. As far as the glass goes, it's way too much up to chance, much like (I feel) the same as the GSG 9 headshot thing. Just to throw something out for discussion, how about Tachanka doing a miniscule amount of damage to a character when hitting the shield, like a few HP per hit? Maybe so that a full magazine is barely enough to kill Blitz or something. This forces the shield to make a choice to fire back, or depend on his teammates to help. The only other thing I can think of that isn't useless or hard to implement would be to let him put the MG down in more places, or on top of objects like desks or deployable shields (obviously take away his ability to put them down if he has it; I forget if he does).

I still feel like the wirelessly controlled MG thing sombody brought up a a while back would probably work best. You still have to deal with it being finicky and hard to place down but once you have it in place it could still tear poo poo up with no risk to Tachanka. Thatcher's EMP could counter and everything would be right with the world.

I decided to give Recruit with Shield + Frags/Breaches a try after the discussion about Blitz being rear end. Went with FBI because the 5.7 is a great pistol not normally afforded to shields. Wtf its op??? Felt way easier to land headshots with the 5.7 vs Blitz & Montagnes pistols. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOId0rZghNo Also here is a bonus video showing the power of GLAZ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NT1CdIF-I5I

It feels like headshots are way to easy to get in this game. Does anyone else feel that way? If I just point near someone's head it's like a guaranteed headshot

Is there a good place or comprehensive resource to catch up on strategy for maps or operators? Trying to play some catch up when I'm not at the console because I haven't logged much time online at all yet.

Give Tachanka's MG more ammo and ammo cap. If Fuze can have 100 round belts, so should Tachanka's. My favorite thing to do is shoot out all the internal walls on the first floor, if the objective is on the second floor. Attacked get really confused, and either get overly cautious which wastes their time or oblivious to all the holes and they can get picked by rosters easily.

The reason I ask, last night I tried to shoot a camera from a good distance ADS with an smg and couldn't kill it for the life of me even though I was aiming directly at it. I don't know about bullet drop, but at long distances you're basically trying to be pixel-accurate when almost none of the sights are good enough for that. I presume that wasn't the case but if you shoot a camera from an elevated position, you end up hitting the post rather than the camera itself.

I don't think there is bullet drop in this at all. I haven't tested it but if there was bullet drop I should probably be missing far away camera more.

Sometimes i perfectly shoot the cameras dead on from a mile away with a pistol, and sometimes no matter where I aim the camera refused to die. I once shot point blank at a camera and the bullet hole appeared like 2 feet above my gun sight. Sometimes bullets do weird things. Theres no bullet drop or theres not enough for it to ever be a consideration. There is only damage drop off.

# ? Jan 7, 2016 23:36 |

Pretty sure the bullets are all hitscan with no bullet drop. Some of the sights are not exactly accurate though, for example, the Russian ACOG sight is set slightly too high and the bullet actually hits below the dot.
