ive been trying the turret for quick cash and it would be a lot more useful if it was ready instantly

If you have some defensive tools it's possible to fort up hard enough to gain a huge defensive advantage. All you have to do is be hard enough to attack that the other teams dick each other over

You also don't need to defend the box itself so long as you can reach it in a pinch.

my experience has been if we get the box into the cashout and have some time to set up with extra walls, turrets, sonar grenades etc. we can get juuuust enough of a defensive advantage that it takes until the last 10 seconds to finally wipe us and steal the cashout

anyone know what counts as carriable damage for the weekly? I assumed it was anything you pick up in the level but damage from a green gas canister didn't register, so I think it's just the red explosive tanks

you can put a breaching charge on a canister then carry it with you for a airburst rocket launcher

Quoting this so folks have one place to go to. I'm tired of getting stomped by 3-mans in casual so I'm more than ready to team up. There is absolutely SBMM in this game and I went basically the whole night only getting one win.

can the op edit this into the first post? or pick one of the existing discords to put in there

yeah that is the other issue with RAA, but that's usually considered cheating by most people so people usually don't comment on it.

a lot of people will also get a xim or w/e which you can buy at wal-mart and use hardware instead of software to try to avoid detection. these types of devices are so popular they sell hundreds of thousands and run out of stock.

idk if any company has ever banned people for it.

People have been banned for using those in Destiny, Fortnite, cod, and rainbow 6 siege so there’s definitely precedent

It seems like something like XIM would be very easy to detect when the game is registering controller input and the player is performing what can only be considered mouse inputs, but that would require manual checks which lol

I can't really comprehend why someone would do something so incredibly boring but I guess there's cheaters everywhere. Get that hollow validation, lads, in the dark of the night you know you didn't actually do anything interesting.

Xim and similar devices have a vested interest in their users not getting banned so they apply input smoothing and such to avoid detection, it’s a cat and mouse game like more traditional cheating

Had my best round last night with a charge heavy with the hammer, I may be a convert

Full destruction heavy is my favorite: Hammer, RPG, C4, Charge.

However it really is less about how well you play and more about is the enemy team stupid, because any good players will just range you to death because they can always out sprint your melee. MELEE HEAVY NEEDS A BUFF!

Oh yeah, the other teams were incredibly stupid, but it still felt great to obliterate a light with one good swing

Really wish there was a server browser or custom game function to make it possible to set up gimmick matches like all hammers, all cloak snipers etc.

I assume there are no private matches? My friends just want to play just us.

Specifically we're having a LAN with even more than 12 people.

Quake 3 and/or unreal tournament 2k4 are for LAN parties, not this modern crap, and I think you can only buy one of those currently

Body blocking as a heavy is an important skill, is this something mediums/lights try to do too?

blocking with mediums riot shield is pretty effective, I’ve done it
