So today i got a kill only because i heard Ash pull up the drone camera right on the other side of the wall from me and knew it was safe to rush in. Something i didn't know that enemies could hear

How many other little things that make noise can enemies hear? Like when you're spinning in place and your guys feet makes shuffling noises? Or how about when you aim down the sights and you can definitely hear something on your end?

I wonder how future operators could potentially have something like Caveria's ability that's on a cooldown rather than limited uses. Why Sledges hammer isn't this way right now is a mystery. It's not like you'll ever use all 25 hits of the thing in a single round anyway.

Someone mentioned a few pages back about drone "hide and seek" in the objective room after it's already been found and i've never really thought about that much myself until i saw it happen every time in all the public matches i was playing.

I understand the need for points is great but what are you going to accomplish besides that? The game has been out long enough that people know all the spots where drones can hide in so it's not like you can keep one in a place and constantly keep the defenders positions updated, at least not for very long before the drone just gets shot. Perhaps this doesn't happen as often in Ranked but i don't normally play that anyway since i'm usually squadless.

Speaking of which goddamn Hard hurry up and fix this matchmaking issue. I got my friend to play this game with me and while i was training him up in T-Hunt we kept getting disconnected from each other :arghfist::sigh:

T-Hunt is peer-to-peer, it's your own fault if it was just the two of you playing.

It just feels strange then because it was showing both our pings at super high numbers (about 400-500 each) but the game would be running just fine. But it would one of us eventually get kicked for our connection being "to slow"

65HP on Blackbeard's shields? That seems a bit low honestly. 150 per shield is fine.

Is Fuze getting a third charge, or are his existing ones firing six grenades instead of five?

a 3rd charge and the normal 5 grenades now have a radius of 4.5 meters instead of 2.5. I believe the kill radius is still the same but now you will take damage but still survive beyond that normal kill range on them.

Don't know what it's like on the PC side but the game is borderline unplayable right now on Xbone. The christmas noobs aren't really the problem so much as it seems like the amount of teamkilling and "le epic trolling" type of people has skyrocketed since the Christmas season.

Granted i don't know how much of this me playing with a Christmas noob friend and he's pulling these dredges down to me since he's still so new and i haven't played Ranked yet at all this season since i'm mostly playing solo but at the moment Causal matches are the pits.

Alot of gifs have been shown as to how incompetent us console players are at aiming without assistance. But i personally quite like that Ubisoft decided to keep it off, even if it was just to keep the games super fast TTK down by having to require us to actually aim. I like feeling like i've earned every kill because i got it with my own skill/tactical use of the destruction, even if the occasional headshot out of hipfiring happens :v:

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

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.

My guess is it's a prototype for the bolt action sniper guy.

I don't see why there's a demand for Glaz/a different operator to get a bolt action rifle. Glaz already fills the sniper niche that every shooter has to fill for whatever reason, even in a game like this that revolves so much around close range combat.

Although i can agree with this change. With as much as Glaz talks up seeing little changes and colors out of place in the environment in his Operator video i'm surprised that wasn't just a lead in to the guy having thermal optics. I predict many rounds going to a time out now as people playing the newly buffed Glaz try and fail to take potshots and people that they can now clearly see but still can't hit because we're playing with a controller :v:

Hard instead of fixing the objective randomization algorithm in Casual please just introduce small changes to the map everytime the game picks the same objective point.

Oh no we're in the construction/kids room bomb sites on house? Suddenly one of the outside windows leading into the point is indestructible! Maybe whoever owns the house took the stairs away because the kids are grounded.Perhaps the map suddenly has an earthquake happen and now the map is played while in freefall.

My opinion of Frost is a little higher lately since the last time i was playing with my (newbie) friends we had an enemy team that was just rush hardcore with recruits on offense and defense.

So for the first time since his uniform has come out, i've managed to get MVP with Rook AND be playing as him when we win the game so i can actually see his little animation.

I'm very disappointed that the didn't ham up how much he's beating his chest, they should have gone full on Gorrilla so that it comes off as less "wooo, we won, i'm so excited and pumped up" :effort:

Please please please let this be a return to Splinter Cell's multiplayer where Mercs could put down a toxic mine which would slowly kill you until you went over to your buddy to have it healed. Would be awesome although probably unlikely.

Also makes me miss shooting the mic rounds on Merc's as a Spy and listening in on their voice comms (original xbox so no party chat or 3rd party software here)


gently caress it, Hard please just make Ubisoft bring back old school Spy's vs Mercs in the next Splinter Cell game, i know they are making one eventually.

Merc vs Spy multiplayer was so loving good, too good for this world it seems :rip: Why they made a bunch of lovely single player splinter cell games after that instead of just making an awesome multiplayer game I'll never understand.

Blacklist is really good though despite the lovely multiplayer thrown in. Although their 2v2 "classic" playlist that made the maps darker was a step in the right direction.

Twitch drone is so good at trolling. Nothing worse than being a defender in a really tense situation and then that lovely little thing comes by and zaps you. You're torn between shooting it and keeping your eyes on the door you know they're about to rush through. But for real, the drone doing 10 damage a pop is unreal.

Is it 10 damage to everybody? I thought it did less depending on how much armor you had?
