Clearly we need a new operator that breaches reinforced walls with a cage containing some kind of vicious trained attack animals. Dogs? Bees?

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

when the announcement for the new ops was leaked it was Spain, Hong Kong, Israel, South Korea. then a ton of people whined about there being no Poland on the subreddit, and the official announcement came out a bit later with Poland instead of Israel.

probably just a mixup and Israel were never intended to be included though. Incidentally I have no loving idea why people want Polish ops so much.

Maybe the game is popular in poland

When do we get the noise warfare operator whose gadget is a speaker they can put on a wall to pump loud, awful noises onto the other side?

It has to be, much like most other major "mature" FPS games in Eastern Europe.

Ayn Rand DLC, please. Alternatively, DLC where an attacker has a hand hold voice loudness cone thing (is rupour a word in English?) that they can heal into using their microphone.

Yeah there seems to be a lot of Polish PC gamers, or atleast a [PL] clan that plays a whole lot of PC games. :v:

Infact one of my favourite RO1 mods is completely dead except for a group of Poles that still play it every other friday.

Cagey-deploys a cage that penetrates reinforced walls and then deploys 3 bloodthirsty Tigers that roam the room they are freed into, killing all enemies in sight. Defenders can counter this by throwing meat set down by the new defender called Butcher.

An attacker who can throw loudspeakers like Valkyrie into corners that can be turned on like Hibana would actually be pretty great. So much of this game is finding people through listening that making an operator to counter that makes a lot of sense.

We are invincible.

A melee-only defender who can use active camo and cling to the ceiling like an Echo drone.
An operator who can set up motion detectors that leave a spot ping if someone trips them.
An operator who can fire castle-like barricades from a pneumatic launcher.
An attacker with heavy boots who can swing and breach a window in one motion.
A defender who can pick up drones and hack them to get a one-time ping of the attacker locations.
An attacker with a hallucinogenic gas grenade that makes all players appear as recruits without name tags.

Hard, please contact me for details as to where you can send my paycheck.

The one thing I want for castle is just the aforementioned pneumatic gun so you can reinforce trap doors from below.

Or breached windows from a distance, esp. late in the round.

Although most Castles just YOLO it and go for the reinforcement.

He was very often picked at the start of it, yes - in large part due to pro meta most often being about picking non-breaching gadgets, which made Castle an actually useful actual detergent.

Speaking of Blitz, do you essentially have to be pointblank for his flash to work? Never use him because it seems to not do anything.

You gotta be within probably about 5-7 metres to get a full blind. It works from further but diminishes rapidly. Funny enough flashbangs probably have about 3x the range

Yes. It only works from like twice his melee range away. There was a video showing how a flashbang from his position will fully blind you but his shield won't even tint your screen.

I picked this game back up after not playing it since late 2015. It seems to still have the same problems connecting me to my friends to make a squad on PS4 despite opening a million ports and all of that nonsense. Is there some easy fix for this that I don't know about?

Which of the non-release Operators are the best? I don't have any new ones yet and since they cost lots of rainbowbux I don't want to buy a really obviously bad one.

They're basically all great except maybe Echo who is as close to hardmode as it gets in this game next to Blitz. Even then he's fun and different enough to play.

Just look at their abilities and see where they fit into how you want to play.
