From what I played, the destruction isn't the same as R6. You're not really shooting holes in walls, you're blowing up the walls with RPGs and C4. Entire buildings can be collapsed in a fun, albeit still janky fashion. So more destruction, but not as granular. It's also small in terms of player numbers but the maps are comparatively big so there are a bunch of movement abilities.

Do frag grenades/medium's grenade launcher blow up buildings? For my own limited testing I shot a wall with the china lake a few times and it didn't seem to do anything.

You know the stuff the announcers say now? Just hire someone to say that exact same stuff but this time without emphasizing words and syllables in insane ways like the bot does.

they should add in some vehicles too, some more guns, maybe a map that is more natural terrain, some sort of game mode where you capture and hold territory for points..

Maybe some giant, bipedal robots while we're at it...

As a med player I just want something that can blow up walls. Never used recon sense.

Imo they really should just make it so you can't shoot while using it. Anyone remember Blacklight Retribution? That whole game was built around the wallhack but you also couldn't switch from it directly into shooting.

So what the post said was that they’re temporarily rotating out bank it and unranked tournaments because they have the fewest players. They will be back in the future but Embark wants to experiment with other game modes without splitting the player base too much.

Regarding playing light in 5v5, I have actually tried that. If the opposing team knows what they’re doing (bubbles, and barricaded APS turrets mainly) what you need is heavies with sledgehammers and charge&slam, glitch grenades don’t really help.

Oh, what? Unranked Tournament is pretty much the only way I play! D:

I greatly prefer it to Quick Cash and don't want to deal with the stress and meta-obsessives that I assume populate Ranked.
