There's...some hosed up things going on with the graphical settings this time around. Like you can't change the render resolution thing (That goes from 0-100%) without a restart for instance. I used to toggle this to minimum to idle the game's lego/jam mode for exp farming. It also runs weird and looks dramatically worse even on performance mode. This is kind of to be expected for me with every new season though, I kind of have a lower end computer at this point.

That's not as easy as you might think as long as everybody scatters when they see it.

Are the bosses' weapons under-tuned? I was drawing down on somebody last night with Hades SMG and it didn't feel like it did much.

yeah the lightning has a "push" effect and everyone scatters on the first 40 damage. after that you might hit hit one with the second bolt for 40 or 80 if they weren't paying attention and the third bolt, because of the pause, you can usually use to pick off the player that hid around a corner because they forgot splash damage exists.
but there will always be someone who is running up to you when you land. either have escape item ready or they'll retire you right in the face.

i can't follow any of this poo poo. i was full shield but a guy just ran up and destroyed me in like 5 shots from a white gun, i had time to pray and spray half a clip at him and didn't hit him once. i opened fire first.
next game some guy unloads a shotgun into the back of my head from five feet away and i manage to turn around, run by him, and fly into the sky with full health and a little bit of shield

the skull water thing is awesome, why would you land anywhere but near the magic "win" button river?

Yeah, this is genuinely what I don't get about the game. Are higher ranked weapons better? Sure, sometimes! Who knows! I'm sure some of it is headshot multipliers but surely not all of it.

higher ranked weapons almost always have more damage per shot, but that may not mean much if you miss (or the bloom/accuracy decides you missed)

usually they have faster reloads
sometimes they have faster fire rates

vs the legendary harbinger smb, hades' smg has: +2 damage per shot, 2s reload time (vs 2.3)

Dumb question: Does this mean that sometimes even if I hit, I miss?

nah, if you get the sound and see a number that definitely hit. the bloom deciding you miss just means you can have a real nice track on someone and still miss most/all of the shots you fire

Can you even still use jam track emotes in BR? I haven't seen the option to do so recently outside of 1 game. In that game, another player started to jam and I was able to see jam tracks in my emote wheel. After that player stopped, I was not able to see them anymore.

Yeah if you have a jam track you can play it, but only one instrument.

This seems to technically work, but you can still only choose one instrument. I want to just be able to play the song itself
