Dead Like Rev posted:I breaching charged, killed a dude with it and then hurled an Ash launched breaching charge through the window into the closet on Mansion killing a second dude. I shed a tear of joy before bandit put a 12 gauge into my face. The moment I had the realization to save Ash's grenades for internal work my kill count with them became a little stupid.

Covert Ops Wizard posted:I...I somehow never thought of that. Oh God when do the servers go online Lemme blow your mind twelve ways to Sunday; they also have a small rear explosion radius that, while not usually fatal, will down someone if they're fetched up against it. It still does this if you bury it in a reinforced panel.

Nope on both counts. Always compensate, always foregrip, never ACOG, laser at your discretion but other people can see it.

pandaK posted:what's wrong with acog, another goon specifically recommended that scope, have i been trolled The ratio of Situations An ACOG Is The Right Choice/Useful vs Situations It Is Not is around 1,000:1. A holo will be sufficient at all ranges you might desire an ACOG at, unless you're rocking 20/100 or something.

Armor is some degree of damage soak, not sure of the exact numbers. Rook brings you up one armor level from what your character naturally is. Speed just is.

kalstrams posted:Glaz also is quite good. It's like they purposely made no bad Russian operators. Tachanka's turret is basically a death trap that will sometimes get you one kill, and anyone who dies to a Kapkan trap is a certifiable retard. Their guns are really good at least.

AbortRetryFail posted:If you put a Kapkan trap behind a barricade can they still see it? Might be ok behind barricades they expect to be in a 100% clear zone. The spike is always visible on the other side no matter where you put it.

markgreyam posted:Can you choose which t-hunt stuff to do solo? I'm just looping through solo t-hunts and sometimes I really just want a literal terrorist hunt, not any of the other "Hey let's attract every bad guy on the map to your location at once" game. In the game options under Gameplay you can turn off modes for both MP and T-Hunt. You can also weight maps, but only the modes are completely turned off/on.

I can't think of anywhere you could do that that would really impede someone from actually removing the trap, but Plane is such a labyrinthian hellhole that I'm probably not aware of some awful door.

Fuze can be used in Hostage if you're responsible and aware of the map, but occasionally the game will just make a Fuze grenade go thermobaric and kill the hostage from a room away anyway.

Shields are useful as actual shields, covering other people while they shoot guys past you. They are no longer the one man slaughter machines they used to be, and that's fine.

HOOLY BOOLY posted:Oh man they used to be better? I never did get into the beta and i'll admit i'm used to shields the way they were in the past couple of Call of Duty games which is not really at all and pretty much just good for a laugh. Pistols used to be perfectly accurate on the first shot if you were crouching and completely still. Hip shot mind you. Moving and standing they were still gross and horrifying, which meant one guy with a shield who was a good shot was wholly unstoppable unless you flanked him with multiple people. It's better this way.

Around half the cast on both ends are of questionable usefulness, but that's often because the things they counter are other abilities of questionable usefulness so they don't see much play. You'll never doom your team by picking IQ, Pulse, Twitch or one of the shield primary guys, so if you like their guns or their options don't feel bad for playing them. Sub-optimal in this is still perfectly capable of an ace or a perfect stalling action.

I'll let you know if I ever have the presence of mind to commit acts of science while returning a grenade, much less doing so in the first place.

I'm not saying you should shoot teammates in the feet if you've got a second with a Doc on your team, but there's nothing stopping you.

DatonKallandor posted:Glaz shooting through reinforcements is pretty loving weird and obscure - especially considering Tachanka can't. It's weird but it's definitely a known quantity by now, like most stuff covered by video game Mythbusters videos. To that point specifically, Glaz can shoot through a lot of stuff no-one else can. Most of the hardwood desks in the levels are hard cover against everything except Glaz, as well as a few other static environment pieces that crop up almost everywhere. On Plane, Glaz can shoot through some but not all of the exterior windows, meaning Glaz is an absolute terror on Plane with a good player. Just be aware that once he breaches a window it can be shoot through by other people.

Jerkface posted:pro tip: this poo poo does not work in ranked because the hostage does the terrorist hunt 'downed for revive' thing instead of instalosing you the match. You then get about a 30 second clock to revive the hostage before the match is over. Very fun when the CTs fuze the hostage and suddenly start breaching everywhere because they gotta go fast It also works this way in casual, it's just fairly rare that someone doesn't unload into the hostages head.

Doctor_Acula posted:You sure? I definitely got dropped to a "the host has disconnected" screen mid match last night. I thought the whole match was p2p. So funny story about that, the game servers are technically an invisible 11th/-1th player in the game. A few times during beta when the games exploded it would show the host client dropping.

keyframe posted:Tachanka is great on defense. A good Tachanka player can single handedly cover an approach leaving the rest of the team free to cover the other side and roam. And then a man appears around a corner and you die because you're always at head height and there's maybe five MG placements on a map and one of them is occasionally useful. Tachanka is garbage.

I legitimately think the change from 5 to 2 seconds of outside detection time ruins a lot of really good options. Also, I think the patch actually made the game worse, as my percentage (and my groups) of bullshit "The gently caress was that?!" sort of deaths has gone way up.

So Kapkan is absolutely viable it turns out, but he's still 50/50, map knowledge/luck, so who knows.

Mister Bup posted:Aside from Montagne who else would people suggest for somebody who's new and wants to have some utility for his team while he's learning the map and shaking off his FPS rust? Been looking at Rook so I can hand out armor at least. Rook, Thermite, Jaeger, Sledge. All good shooting options, all easy, no muss no fuss no complicated tactics abilities. Just stick with your team and do what they ask for/tell you as Sledge and Thermite. Jaeger, place your traps to the sides of entrances to the defense room, but at angles where they can't be shot without the enemies exposing themselves. Rook, place armor, reinforce things, sit tight or gently caress off and roam.
