Ran into this situation last night:

As Montagne, I had my shield extended and was peeking a hole in a wooden wall. Castle comes along and throws an impact grenade and hits his side of the wall. I took full impact grenade damage instead of having it reduced by the shield.

It definitely didn't hit behind me since it created a big hole to vault through. Is that a glitch or are impact grenades exempt from the explosion reduction for some reason?

Wait, what's this about? If you score 4k points in a game you get a disco ball bobble for your gun or something?

That means I would have missed that by 200 points on a couple of occasions last night due to being a horrible shitter.

Ubi makes Monopoly games-- Where's my Mr Moneybags skin? What about replacing the welcome mat with Boardwalk? When is House going to get assessed for repairs?

You can shill for whatever you want if you fix your servers so the game is stable. Ubi gets poo poo talked for some of their marketing stuff because their backend work isn't exactly great at times. Hackers, buggy releases, server instability, etc. It's been getting better over time, but a lot of people don't exactly give the company the benefit of the doubt anymore.

Hard, has there ever been a definitive statement on a ps4 pro patch? I plan to go back to the game for year 2 but higher framerate/resolution sure would make it easier.

Well this is the first game I've refunded on Steam. Nothing I did fixed that error code. Tried tons of different router settings, reinstalled, etc... Unbelievable that this has been out for a year, and there's still 3-4 threads a month on Reddit with this issue. Probably dodged a bullet if that's indicative of the game's quality control.

Mileage may vary in that case.

It also really depends on your team being able to take that advantage and use it.

Nearly every time we get an interrogation it either ends the game or significantly turns the tide in our favor.

Fair enough! That's counter to what Hard has told us in the past though which is why I said that.

Okay what about the bug masks though.

Bought and played the game at release liked it but bounced off. Is it worth it to play casual without a group to learn the maps again? Or should I just jump on discord and let you guys have your way with me.

Kikas posted:

Yo, there's a bug in the game with Doc - the medgun counter on the interface never goes down, it stays at 3. I have no idea if this was there before the patch, cause I just bought Doc. But every time I play him, only the bottom right ammo counter goes down when I use the healing shot - the middle part of the interface just always says "3" (the one next to the "use ability button"). It still is pretty easy to keep track of how many darts have you fired since there are only 3, but every other limited use gadget does track it's number on the middle interface, so for consistency at least I think that should be fixed Even If I'm the only Doc player I've yet to encounter.

Hard, when's that report toxic player option coming? I just endured a round with 'GASTHEJEWS1488,' who started screeching in a ridiculous fake accent about the holocaust when I called him out.

Malcolm Excellent posted:

I would really like a report toxic players report. A group of Plats called me a "Tryhard friend of the family" and "XD human being" during a casual match last night. How can you have so much game time and still be such a rude person.

I would also accept an option to turn off all chat.

They will play and fight for $5,000 every Season per region as well as to secure their position into the next Season’s Pro League.
We will of course be maintaining weekly Go4R6 tournaments.
More information about the new format below.

Xbox One competition program: Major League and Go4R6

Say while you are "in the mood" might I bring your attention to this lovely garbage person?

I'm not sure I even understand some of these insults but MEMES ya'll.

Seriously while I don't know how much you guys actually look at the report flags on players I'd love for a racist behavior flag to be added.

That kind of poo poo, unfortunately, happens way too often.

IceOrb posted:

This happened same day I posted it.

Listen man I believe you when you say battleye doesn't gently caress around mostly because the people I've reported have magically stopped reporting to the siege stats sites.

But for this guy specifically I was going through the process of censoring the chat so I could post our guys ACE on his team when I saw your response to Jones.

If you'd prefer this kind of stuff not be brought to your attention I'm happy to just send the reports into battleye and let them do their thing.

Can't blame ya for not wanting to have to look at that kind of garbage cause I definitely don't.
