Right now though I think they're a really good way for new players to learn attachment options when they get some cash and flea market. Also how having a rear sight affects sighting range lol I am guilty of this. "Oh man removing the rear/front sight lets me actually see the targets I am shooting at!" This is followed by my shots going where ever they want. Luckily it was on a scav and not my PMC, but still a good lesson to learn lol.

To piggy back off of the off topic poo poo, a mic preamp is a great tool as well. It helps to reduce noise noise. I will probably need to get one soon as my life is based around this microphone...

ShowTime posted:I also like the pp 19 because its the first semi decent gun with a silencer you can get. It's a low caliber bullet, but you can still get the job done. You can usually find them for around 90k and you just buy a few extra magazines and load it with AP ammo, or if you really want, 7N31 or RIP. I imagine going RIP and leg meta would be pretty good. I've had luck with Quakemaker in it. But I used AP 6.3 the most because I didn't grind out to get the 7n. Good stuff.

Getting used to the different gun's iron sights is something to note as well. Go into offline mode and practice against some scavs. But desync is a thing that happens, but (usually) not enough to make note of it. But desync/hit registration is a reason why I am taking a break from the game. I unloaded 2 M4 clips into a scavs chest point blank and he managed to kill me after breaking my armor. I can count on one hand the number of times that has happened to me, but it was a breaking point that I should take a break till they add more stuff. I've been playing for awhile now, don't want to get pissed/frustrated at the game still fairly early in it's life cycle (especially a game I enjoy).

Pharmaskittle posted:I'm still a babby so I use grenades so infrequently that I don't yet understand how they work. Do explosions and flash effects go around corners or anything goofy, or are they pretty realistic? Do they do extra damage based on the size of the room or anything? If a frag grenade lands nearby should I hit the dirt because there's an inverted cone of shrapnel, or should I just run? It uses video game logic. So a circle explosion from the epicenter that only damages what can be seen. If you hit the floor in front of a grenade, you will receive a healthy dosage of shrapnel to your

Bussamove posted:Christ I can't survive more than two minutes today before having to deal 350 damage to someone, have them not die, then two-tap me. Gotta tap into your rat instincts. Being a sneaky grimy piece of poo poo is the most fun part of the game (for me at least). See a juiced guy? See where he is going. If he is not being careful and is leaving rooms open, even better. Wait till he loots something and throw a grenade behind him (key here is not AT him but BEHIND him, better chance of the explosion blowing him up if he manages to GTFO in time). Why risk having him turn around and 360 no-scope you in the head when you can throw Mr. Grenade and watch how quickly he can exit out of a menu.

JUST MAKING CHILI posted:I know the solution is “play more” so I’m not too upset, but learning all the maps as a newbie is hard. While playing more is one solution it's kind of bad for those of us with garbage schedules. My time with this game has always been fun, but painful because I am always left behind after a wipe. While my friends are running around with meta guns, heat sensing scopes and the best ammo in the game I am following suit with a PP-19 loaded with Quake Maker and garbage armor. The mega chads have 0 reason to not totally annihilate me halfway across the map at this stage in the game because they are bored and just want to kill. So, I have not even bothered playing this wipe. Destiny 2 and City of Heroes are games that I can pick up, play for an hour and make progress in without much thought or prep.

One of my favorite memories in this game was when I did a pistol run with a 1911 in Factory. I shot some chad who didn't have his visor down in the face. He hosed me up, but luckily he had some great meds on him. Made out with some good poo poo and killed another player on the way out.

The choices they make are... interesting to say the least. Blizzard takes an interesting approach when they buff/nerf characters in Heroes of the Storm where they give a brief description on the logic for that change. That might be hard to do on a grand scale patch for BSG, but it would certainly be telling for where their logic is pointing them.
