is anyone using audio compression in this game? i unknowingly was because my computer has dolby digital sound which has a volume leveler feature which basically makes quieter sounds louder and louder sounds quieter. a few weeks back i turned it off to see if i could hear better and holy poo poo some noises make my ears bleed!

I've been told the AK is very accurate for the first 2 shots. Kind of like CS.

I like watching Shroud because he's very good, entertaining, and not a douche. The people he plays with are cool too.

Besides him I watch chocotaco and p4wnyhof.

That's a really interesting maintenance window.

Just bought this game last night, played 2 games before servers went down, first one I ran for 6 minutes then got shot in the back, second game I ran for 4 minutes then got into a firefight, during said firefight I realized I need to turn down the graphics settings because game turns into a slideshow when shooting starts happening, also died. 10/10 first experience, will run through miles of barren terrain/broken houses again, this is a good B&E sim.

*edit* I also looked for vehicles but never found any that were not blown up, which made me a little sad.

drop hacienda and school until you can loot fast and shoot people well. also: military, pochinki, pecado

Make it so you can't join a new game until the one you died in finishes. That'll teach people not to be bad real quick.

thatd make people worse because they'd have less practice

It's annoying in the lobby, but in matches, it really made me prioritise buildings with windows. And if I noticed good loot on a roof, it was risk-reward to open the doors to get there.

Again, a dumb thing to complain about, but it almost feels like there is too much loot. I got in the top ten quite easily, but everybody had level 3 everything, a Kar98 with 8x, and a kitted out M4.

i get that feeling but i also actually think it makes it fair and about skill instead of who has the better loot

Since the new grips will be on live soon and I had no time to give it a try on test, what's the consensus on the grip situation?

half or angled for spray. thumb good for tapping up to 8 shots.

I've just gone for:
  • ADS - Right Click
  • Aim - Shift + Right-Click

I tried this and I think it's bad because it can mess with your ability to go from sprinting to ADS. I use a separate button on my mouse for it.

Except you cannot reliably force the car to roll - if you drive, let go of the accelerator to slow down to ~15 kmph and hop out, your car will just stop even on a downhill slope some percentage of the time. If you're trying to roll the car intentionally, you can't really do it without an uncomfortable risk of failure.

hold w and change seat then get out

but really why are you trying to roll cars

Why is the Platoon War Mode so unpopular?

The only time I tried it, it kinda sucked.

They did have a platoon tournament (non-war mode) recently that was paired up with the GLL grand slam, only watched a little but it seemed like madness:

Reddit just sucks. They all want Sanhok level loot if they're not outright asking to land fully kitted. I think the scarcity aspect of it is part of the game, and you shouldn't be able to get your exact preferred weapon within 1 minute of landing every time. I like having variety between the maps and I think it'd be great to expand on the "gold mirado" type of ideas.

Now, I wish they'd make more of the guns viable. Adding the scope to the winny is a step in the right direction. Being able to toss things is going to make the machete/crowbar/etc more useful.

That and you should be able to requeue without going back to the lobby, especially on console. That extra loading time sucks.

I'd rather have comp loot because for me this game is not about looting, it is about strategy and killing people and trying to win.


Jiro posted:

Also the M4 isn't the end all be all anymore. Damage on it kinda really sucks, it fires like a laser when fully attached, but to me there are better options if you can just come across an AR Comp and pretty much any grip. The Beryl has been awesome for me as far as damage output and firing rate.

Given the choice of a fully kitted AR the only ones worth having are M4/Aug/Beryl/Groza/M249 (with the remark that you have to be very good at recoil for the 762 ones). I think other ARs are viable if you don't have the attachments, i.e. SCAR is so much easier to control so you will miss less even though it's slower vs an unkitted M4.




Re: all the people with ping problems, I'm pretty sure you can get a vpn to force different routing, i know I've seen people talk about this but i can't remember details but the option exists at least!

Everytime I take the SCAR I regret it. You can really feel the TTK on this gun.

I try to take the M416 every game due to muscle memory and knowing exactly how much to pull down, etc. I'll take the Beryl if I can't find an M416 but I have to actively keep remembering to pull down hard and do 10 round bursts rather than spraying the entire mag like I can with an M416.

I agree, you have to make sure you're not being shot back at with that thing.
