Is there any way once and for all I can see the actual differences between the muzzle brake, compensator, and flash hider without undergoing the arduous task of equipping them in t hunt and then just trying to remember the difference?

Goons are good to play with . 10/10 would get liquored up and play in-houses again

Glaz and SMG's are crazy accurate now. There's basically no recoil. It's awesome.

EDIT: Lighting is still awful, no big surprise there.

Loot crates are cool as long as there's never anything that effects stats or guns.

Jackal being a 30s cav interrogation on one player without having to do anything besides ping some footsteps is just loving lol though.

TBH it seems like you still need to play him more carefully. It pings the target, it's not a constant spot like interrogation. The fact that they can move around unmarked for the other 9 seconds means they can still get the drop on you.

Wow the reticles are utter garbage again. Nice.

Honestly I think Mira's windows are not actually that good. Sometimes you can cheese people with them, but eventually they're gonna get opened and then it's just a perfect killhole that Hibana doesn't have to make so she can go make them somewhere else.

I honestly can't make anything less than an ACOG work. Without it half the time my eyes just don't register enemies as a thing I should be shooting at because of their lack of detail and I end up just ignoring them as map geometry. Very frustrating.

Just out of curiosity (considering I've only had the game barely 2 months), what have been some of the big changes among the operators since release? As in who has been buffed/nerfed and how? Just wondering.

Well for starters Blackbeard was a death machine. He had 1 shield but it rarely, if ever, broke in a normal match. He was also much quicker in terms of ADS and such. Frost's shotgun had more range and totally outclassed her SMG. Buck's shotgun used to make teeny tiny baby killholes. Smoke's gas grenades were thrown underhand so you couldn't throw them nearly as far. Doc was not originally able to heal himself or overheal anyone. Pulse's heartbeat sensor used to update periodically rather than constantly.

That's just off the top of my head. I'm sure there are more but those are the main ones. Grenades types got swapped around on a few ops as well.

Jesus, the red dot sight is almost unusable now.

They're way better imo. They were far too chunky to see anything last patch. Only having the slightest indicator of where dead-center is seems a lot more useful.

EDIT: Smokes are far better on glaz than claymores now.

Video from Monday. Only 7 guns have the damage you would expect when using a suppressor. 18 guns do less damage than they should, 22 do more damage.

P229 is heavily bugged but what kind of maniac wouldn't take a Bearing 9?

You'd take wouldn't take it if you buy into Hard's Ubi-propaganda that the clearly inferior pistol is "actually really good."

Just bought the game, having fun so far going through the training missions, looking for some goons to play with and want to make fun of a newbie.

Download both Mumble and Discord because goons are big loving retards and refuse to choose one. If one is empty (COUGHdiscordCOUGH) there are usually at least one or two people in the other. Siege goons play pretty regularly so you shouldn't have to pub too often.

Monty still good as gently caress to be honest. Revolver is essentially pointless now, but the P9 still does work since you have plenty of bullets to cheese a headshot with. Additionally, it's kind of demoralizing to get hit with even if it doesn't 2 shot you.

March forward with shield extended. Then drop shield, crouch, fire once or twice. Extend shield. Rinse and repeat.

But guys, devs work really hard so all of this can be ignored. And if you don't like it, gently caress you because you just don't "get" what it's like to be a dev! Similarly you should go gently caress yourself if you'd like an actual explanation. You'll wait for more information and you'll like it.


Everything in Operation Health was already promised in addition to the seasonal content. It isn't a trade-off. It's literally just less content.

Anyway I've bought both season passes so far because I think the game is Fun and Good, but if you think the players are getting anything other than dicked here then you might be slightly delusional. I'm sure it's a necessary evil, a complicated internal issue that couldn't be avoided yadda yadda yadda whatever but it's still not a positive situation in any way.

Gonna keep playing tho, luv u Hard.

Hey Hard, I've got a couple of issues to report. Firstly, I'm not sure if it's well known already, but one of my friends was spawn-killed on Oregon (shot in the head the second the game started! Urgh) by someone leaning through the window below. We started off to the east of the tower in this screenshot, by the way.


Also, at least one of Pulse's headgear items is messed up. From really close-up it appears fine however the further back you go, the blacker his face gets. I can confirm his Black Ice glasses+face paint is affected (for both myself and a friend, so it's not just a local issue), however his Velvet Shell glasses appears fine.
Here are a couple of screenshots, so you can admire his new look:

http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198024279903/screenshot/850469837815592723
At least his nose appears to be fine, if that's any consolation? :v:

This spawn kill is less common but ridiculously easy. I do it every game. You need a shield set up perpendicular to the window, then you vault up in the construction materials next to the window and just run onto the shield. EZPZ

Voip is all the same poo poo, but every time it comes up both sides are equally smug pieces of poo poo about their own literally-the-same-quality-as-the-others brand.

Mumble's stupid number of subchannels (derr derr I need my own personal hang-out channel) is literally the same poo poo as the absurd number of Discord servers (derrr derr we all play the same game but don't play with each other).

I do typically avoid Discord because they're the goons that talk down to me for not exclusively using their "perfect" program.

SA uses both, so I recommend both. Like any rational person would.
