Lately I've gotten killed a lot by my own cluster charge when playing as Fuze. Last time it happened I planted on a door, then hit the detonator when i was at least 4 meters away behind an unbreakable wall. I was spectated by two teamates at the time who also saw the bullshit death.

I guess you could say I keep getting hoisted by my own petard, quite literally.

It would sure be nice if developers would stop forcing lagcomp designed for bad console hardware and P2P connections onto PC games. :sigh:

:dukedog:

gently caress yeah, I've been running him a lot more because of how much I love the AK. Fuze's ability is also rad too. Even if you don't get the kill, if you coordinate, you can do it in an area that forces the opfor to run out and towards your teammates.

IQ just sucks and so does pulse. Good but not great guns do not make up for fairly useless or limited abilities. My friend loves running pulse and likes to bitch when I go smoke and I want to strangle him. Smoke is so stupidly good esp with the acog on his second I would be amazed if a nerf isn't coming soon.

I find those explosions to be awfully unreliable as far as safe zones. Both using him and going against him, I've been killed more than a few times in the exact same way. Just because the game likes to glitch you out through the wall, I try to avoid hugging them

Do you really need a macro for it? It really is almost instantaneous, you don't need much timing to do it.

The macro makes it so you can just rapid fire shoot with ads accuracy and you shield never goes down.

My teammate fuzed the double door from garage on bank. I was to the right of the door against the wall. My kill cam showed one of the hockey pucks go into locker room, bounce off 2 walls, out the door, under the double door which was castled and into my crotch. :(

Does it not update the position of your shield when you drop through a trap door until your operator hits the ground? I dropped in facing a Kapkan and on the killcam I was apparently facing an entirely different direction in the air.

I like the tactical side of this game, but Jesus Christ are there a lot of things that make no sense compared to what shows on your screen.

It may be a glitch with your ragdoll when you get killed, I had a similar thing happen to me where I was shot and it showed me crouchmoving toward the guy then immediately snapping 90 degrees to my side.

Either that or it's actually happening in the game and that is why I got shot, who knows.

An operator with an attack dog would legitimately be loving amazing.

I think you could balance it like this:

Speed 4. Completely silent when crawling. Can't kill enemies, but can instantly down them at melee range and keep them down as long as the dog stays on them.

An operator who IS an attack dog. He'd basically be DD from MGS 5.

His ability to sense enemies (and then stab them to death with his dog knife), would make him better than IQ even without having a gun.

You put down the trap and then you start to pick it back up and tap middle mouse as soon as the animation starts and the laser disappears. The second one you put down after that is even more bugged where neither the laser nor the screw is visible.

I can see how that would be a very infuriating way to die. And an effective trap.

The ones with a hidden screw don't work properly, though. The explosion kinda bugs out and goes into the insides of the wall.

To fix this, just hold mouse3 to deploy your next trap until it gets about 1/2 way through, then let go, and deploy again. You can put down 3 traps this way that will all work normally (with the exception of the sensor being toggled to infrared mode).

This is a very clever way of giving an obvious cheat a veneer of respectability.

The traps should have never had lasers to begin with. They make a sound and you can see them pretty plainly from either side of the door

Yeah, I died to an invisible laser yesterday and I was wondering if maybe ubisoft had patched the game and I didn't notice, as I had seen several of them like that over the weekend. I'm disappointed it's just a glitch exploit. :(
