Rainbow Siege thread

Ubisoft made their first decent game since Far Cry 2 and Blood Dragon, not perfect but quality enough to be playable and fun. Tips for newfags or people teetering on buying it.

Give a pirate link with working online or i'll call you a shill, ok?

No pirate link, no thread

to all Montagne players out there:

...

Just started and I love playing as Montagne. Some fuck got mad cause I killed him while he reloaded right in front of me. He really tried to knife me from my vulnerable sides but somehow I managed to block his attempts. I didn't have a wall to rely on so that made this 1v1 exciting

At this point I am now convinced that the if a game has named characters. No matter how bare bones they are in terms of characterization, the chance of autistic fandom shit increases 100%.

Now if I can just not be shit at the game and find a good group of people to play with…

ubi is pushing to harness some autism in some recent stuff they've made like pic related

just
christ

...

Whoops.

Tachanka players.

Also stairwells are your friend.

I chuckled when I first realized what they did.


How do you ping enemies when you're not a robot or camera?

I think he means the yellow arrow.

i said two words
fuze
window

Those are great, I wish more games had a function like that. It just makes it so easy to point someone in the right direction.

wut

if you're bold, set up under a unguarded hatch and have a friend watch that hatch for fuze players

ah finally some non-autistic group-art, but they still had to slap their fucking watermark on it

someone go tell them that it's gay as fuck

I think they did it since le reddit kept taking credit for it

Ok, is it actually good? Should I get it off g2a or something or hunt down a cheap box in a supermarket?

just get it anywhere I think G2A even has season passes for cheap

Get a friend or two alongside, and you're good to go.

Oh, and hope you don't get error code [2-0x0000E000] like I do.

One question: as someone with an autistic love for realism-oriented FPS games all the way down to the original Rainbow Six -
IS THIS WORTH BUYING
The shooting and movement looks solid but I'm concerned about it being more about what faggoty ability you have than your skill, plus all the microtransactions and shit. I could just play dirty bomb for that.

almost all of the abilities are just gadgets and don't guarantee you to get kills, a lot of them are means to destroy walls or prevent walls from being destroyed anyway rather than killing tools. most gadgets have a limited supply as well, there's no cooldowns or ultimate attacks it's just a gadget you get

the microtransactions are just cosmetics that fucking suck or you can buy the DLC operators instead of grinding for them

What's the fucking point in playing as Montagne if your team won't help, shit sucks fam

There ain't none, best you can hope for is to plant the defuser in a corner and stand on top of it.

What said, the microtransactions are skins, there's no maps or characters or accessories you're locked out when you play this game. Ubisoft is even taking cues from the Siege development team when it comes to DLC and I hope Ubisoft sorts their shit out.


This game is pretty far from realism as you can get with SMGs now being roughly equal to carbines and LMGs, bullets come out of red dots/ACOGs/reflex sights and all the retarded and wacky gadget bullshittery. It's fun but it's not realistic in the slightest.

You can pay to unlock characters faster but honestly, the grind isn't especially obnoxious; they're grouped into their organizations (SAS, FBI, GIGN, ect) and the first few in every organisation are cheap (it gets more expensive the more characters in a group you buy) so it's really easy to buy into lots of groups and get a pretty wide selection quickly.
The microtransactions are skins.

Wait, is that official art?
WHAT THE FUCK

...

The realism kinda wavers. For the most part everything will be satisfactory, but like what said, bullets come out of wherever you're aiming and not the barrel, and some of the gadgets stretch the imagination, like how bandits shock wires won't hurt friendlies but will still destroy friendly gadgets, and echoes drone shooting sonic bursts and having active camouflage is pretty unrealistic. Also for most of the guns they follow the damage abstraction and balance philosophy rather than going for full realism.

Meant for

It's not squirrel girl tier, just looks like crappier Disney.

Gadgets aren't needed in the slightest. Though people kind of label you a shitter if use recruit.

Recruit's an odd bird, if you pick him you're either new as fuck, playing him for the ebin memes, or level 200+ and ready to ace every round.

Lad.

It's not very realistic, but you still drop like a sack of rocks if someone catches you off guard.
Microtransactions are only skins, headgears, and BDUs but the vast majority of which you can buy with points you earn by playing.
DLCs are free updates with a new map that doesn't require anything. The operators do require a lot more points to unlock, though.

Recruit FBI-shield with the FN57 was geniunely broken pre-Dust Line since he had a frag grenade, a handgun with 20+1 rounds, and he was the only 3 speed shield user.

I still pick him most of the times I want to use a shield since Blitz and Montagne always let me down but now I think he's better used as an offensive shotgunner for the Russian and German shotguns.

Montagne is FUCKING INVINCIBLE right now, nothing can break through that extended shield, not even Nitro Cells. How are you having trouble with him?

Generally when I play Montagne and Blitz people just shoot me in the face through my shield thanks to netcode. I'm certain it will happen just as much if I keep playing recruit more but until then I can at least feel like his shield is protecting me better.

How is he not broken now, he still has all of that unless they did something to the 5.7.

my screencaps are starting to bleed out from gg threads?

Did you know they're hiring tumbler artists to do squirrel girl, hellcat and got the person who blew all their adventure time bux to make bee and puppycat.

No, you misunderstand. Recruit FBI was the only shield operator that was as fast as Ash, Jaeger, .etc. He could go super speed with his shield until Ubisoft nerfed him.


You know it.

I assumed that they already were. Reminder that they chose artists that produce quality like the first image over competitors (2nd and 3rd image).

good taste in manga bruv

...

...

He's only speed 2 now

...

What's going on with her jaw?

...

I can't fucking play this shit anymore, these faggots are unbearable. Every fucking round it's some mongoloid level 0 fuze killing teammates or hostages or someone aimbotting in the most obvious manner. I'd be more than happy for the game to never go on sale again and dwindle in playerbase if it means no more huge influxes of cheaters and retards.

I wanted to get R6S but I hate PVP/competitive games. Do people play the terrorist hunt game mode?

Killed three hostages today, I m dedicating them to you.

the terrorist hunt mode in siege isn't good enough to warrant a whole purchase

Terrorist Hunt is horrible, don't buy it because of it.

Ok, thanks

Isn't this cropped futa porn?

She's shoving a drone up her ass.

Looks like my cock radar needs recalibrating :^)

Oh, yes.

I actually haven't encountered any obvious hax in my entire 80 hours so far. The Christmas noobs are unbearable though, but in time they will either get bored of the game and leave or git gud.

So how do most people deal with Montagne now that they changed nitrocells?

That feel when your playing with some fags who are terrible and two are in a group on your team and your the last one alive on two different rounds because not totally retarted and they team kill me and some random so it's only them since we already lost someone by disconnection and they get completely destroyed with no kills or skills and when a completely accidental freak team kill happens in another game the guy who accidently did it gets kicked instantly another time while being a crucial part of the team

How the fuck does kicking for friendly fire even fucking work

flanking or kiting him into somewhere where he's vulnerable

alternatively, playing as Smoke

Ignore him and kill his friends first, because he'll probably be walling, and if he's not just shoot his hands. If he is wallling shoot his friends until he's alone, then flank him. If he's being aggressive, he can't do anything until he unwalls himself, and when he does just melee him and he'll be staggered and vulnerable.

If he's blocking a door, try to bait him in just a little bit and throw nitro at the top of the doorframe. He'll either turn around to block the explosion or unwall and you can shoot him. Or he won't do anything after he walks in so you just blow the nitro and kill him

This feels great to play when you win/carry

...

...

...

I see.


I was wondering if throwing the nitrocell on walls behind him or above him would still kill him. Haven't been able to play enough lately to get into a situation to try it out myself. So that's good to know.

I wonder why they haven't buffed Tachanka so that his LMG can shoot through shields like people have been asking for. If it's just small damage it would seem like it would be balanced well enough.

Monty is the best operator he is completely OP after the last update.
I like to convince my team to form a conga line behind me while i sing AYYY MACARENA.

Every time I start this game up now I get maybe 10 minutes before the desire to uninstall it starts skyrocketing.

every time i boot this game up i get maybe 10 minutes before my computer explodes now

its breaking my heart

...

...

I want to murder these people in real life. None of these were even Christmas kiddies, the whole team was level 50+ and two of them just decided they wanted to be faggots.

People can be massive salty fags.

I've been trying to play Monty for ages, but people either run in front, or shoot me in the back as I advance.

Once guy got livid because he said I was supposed to stay at the back with the shield, only for me to go to the front and have him accidentally shot me in the head and blame me for it.

my best r6 round with randoms so far

Are the terrorists just generic terrorists or will they add right wing extremist groups?

he usually draws both a normal and a futa version

Former.

...

You mean Counter Strike 1.6 and Quake 3?
Dude, the age of pirating multiplayer games is done, at most you'll get russian servers filled with hackers.

Oh yeah sure, it exists except, y'know, 9 times out of 10 you'll have less than 5 people playing at a time.

The main concept of the terrorists in Siege is that they dont follow any ideology whatsoever.

This game runs like fucking shit, I get these 1-4 second freezes every other 30 seconds.

You mean like stuttering? That only happens to me when I alt-tab in and out a lot while in-game.

No, freezing.
I freeze in game. Not stuttering, just a complete freeze where there is no movement at all.

I wouldn't be able to know what to tell you, outside of trying to run it in windowed mode and disabling any programs running in the background. I do experience similar kind of freezes when HDD usage activity is rather high, though that only happens when I'm installing or extracting some shit.

Laptop can't run the game and my computer died on me. Fuck.

I get the same, almost every round I get a 10 second freeze in the prep phase and sometimes during the attack phase too, usually getting me killed. There's no fix, some people just get fucked by Ubisofts bad programming.

Who do you find is the most fun to play as? My vote goes to Sledge. There has been a few times where I deserved a WUB WUB WUB soundtrack as I busted in from above.

There's a kind of sexual feeling when you play Buck and use your skeleton key to open up an entire section of wall in 2 seconds with BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM and then popping scared people in the head with your DMR.

Also, what is the best way to jew the Jews in terms of new operators? Is there a trick to accumulate 25000 fucking renown or do you just relinquish your sheckles?

The 6th member is the commander thats why hes called 6

One common theme I have seen is that whenever my CPU usage from Task Manager hits 100%, it tends to freeze.
Even then, a game being that CPU inefficient should be a crime.

Do every single challenge that grants renown every week and you can get 25k in like three weeks or so.

Jesus, I am not a smart man. I just got that.

What does the game mean when they say "op 4?"

Opposing force.

Her name's Ash because she's a Jew.

opfor, opposing/opposition forces

I have to agree with Buck is a shitload of fun.

I kinda don't like the fact that the game doesn't have some sort of vote function when it comes to players. I mean, fuck, I don't mind if it's 4v4 or 4v5 just let me play and don't sit in the lobby for 3 minutes for one player.

Oh wow it's so obvious when I think about it. All this time I've been thinking of the number. Thanks.

Rainbow is the name of the counter-terrorism team. Given due to the team's diversity caused by selecting from the best around the world. Also they have representatives from all Major NATO players, though they're mostly American and British. Though funded via the USA, the base of operations is Britain due to location and ease of access.
Unit contains personnel from France, Germany, Spain, Canada, Italy and Israel. They are kept separate from intelligence agencies; they are meant for operation only when they are needed.

number is designation within team
6 represents commander in SAS terminology.

Rainbow 6 was a book series focused on Rainbow member 6 John Clark. Therefore his callsign is Rainbow 6.

I'm salty that Siege doesn't have plot, because that last Situation was a nice start to what could've been a pretty good plot. I get that the game was focused on multiplayer, but the gameplay and setting could lend itself to a pretty good story. Even if it was just story segments for each map that linked them together would be a nice touch.

I'm almost certain that Siege was supposed to be the multiplayer portion of Patriots but once they scrapped Patriots they put all their work into Siege.

So is joining the exclusive ubisoft club worth doing?

Well you had to download uplay to play didn't you? So you might as well. The challenges also give you skins and charms sometimes like the santa Kapkan.

No, I'm talking about the random weekly challenges you find by bringing up the uplay panel with shift+f2. The ubisoft club shit is I think just for season pass people which defeats the purpose since you get the DLC operators for "free" with that anyway.

That I'm sure of too.
That's what makes me sadder about this. Wildlands is going to end up vapid.

Patriots, based on siege, and the "situations end animation" seemed like something that could've been executed well

You can votekick people within the lobby if they're taking too long to load, or ask the opposing team to votekick someone that's taking too long to load.

...

to say

Also why is valkyrie hot in the operator picture but a fucking munchkin in game? Has ubisoft fixed this yet? I haven't been close enough to her to really notice in game

The operators in the game are a fucking joke.
Shit like the chink operators who look like a fucking pop band and DEAGUL BRAND DEAGUL wielding MUHREEN SEELS.

EVERY GODDAMN TIME

New Fuze Players


TL;DR

What operator would Charls choose??

what are this weeks challenges? any more good rewards or is it back to points? i would love to go check myself but ever since the chank-shield update this game makes my pc want to fucking explode

It's all points this week, no dongles or paints.

phew, i was able to extend my pcs life just long enough to get the anniversary, Christmas, and new years charms before it just started overheating my CPU any time i pop this game in

yes i changed my thermal paste and dropped my settings to pathetic levels

...

add to this
>ANY DESTRUCTIBLE SURFACE
So many people don't know or understand this.

Jesus fucking christ, so many dumb wankstains who are ungrateful that they suck and I'm doing literally everything.

He seems like he's main Thermite for attack and Caveria for defense.

This chair is now bomb

...

on the other side of the coin so many easy kills and free interrogations

>be console pleb on the xbone

I hate how everyone I know has a boner for xbone.

It's a meme among normalfags.

jew
not jew
not jew

ubisoft might as well call her a nigger

she's just hiding her devil eyes behind shades and her curls with a braid, don't be fooled like all jews ash is a master of disguise

Sauce on this manga?

Chio-chan no Tsuugakuro

...

>tells me it's just casual and I should quit bitching
As this game keeps getting more popular how infested by Redditors will it become.

that's why you add the fuckers on here who occasionally post their Ubisoft ID so you wont have to worry about being tk'd as often. Even if yes these new fagos are getting atrocious to deal with even in unranked they still always bring up rank

It's shit like this that makes me nervous to play games online. Sometimes it sucks being a socially retarded NEET that is average at vidya.

If beratement with curse words and getting into arguments scares you than how do you live on imageboards.

God I cannot use shotguns after playing Insurgency.

It's less personal on imageboards somehow.

Same here, they're so fucking garbage.
They shoot like a old time blunderbuss where the muzzle is spread out. Dogshit damage above 2 meters and shoots way too fast.
Insurgency did shotguns right. Shoot slow, medium range, can put slugs on them. Deadly with a single shot on target in a 20m distance.

There isn't an identity on imageboards which allows you to say stupid shit without repercussion and biases to bite you in the ass in another thread, (another reason why imageboards are great is also how there isn't a like system that devolves arguments into what the tribe deems accepted instead of pitching in their voice to make an actual dent and advance & influence the dialogue depending if what you have to say it worthy). Back to the topic is that who cares if you tell your team to go fuck yourself or say good job, you're already leaving a mark on the game by playing it and someone might interact with you so what's the paranoia, it's a video game with communication not real life or a social network. Sage for off-topic.

fags, add jew-incinerator and hope i can get to play some fucking siege

I-I-IT'S NOT MY FAULT I'M COPPER, IT'S ALL MY TEAMMATES FAULT.

Cry more, bitch.

This game has had a massive influx of newfags thanks to Christmas sales and if I'm on the team of shitty players than someone else is on a team with good ones because this happens also in casual along with rank being determined by W/L not K/D, you're a retard.

Forgot to take off sage.

Ok dudes, got the game on 50% discount and just now finished all situations on realistic difficulty and got all objectives, I have money enough to buy two operators.

I didn`t play a single multiplayer match yet, so I have no idea of the meta, what operators should I buy first?

get Rook for defenders and Sledge for attackers

With Rook you'll always be of benefit to everyone by giving them extra armor even, even if you aren't that good at killing shit
Sledge is good for learning the ins and outs of destructable points in maps, while at the same time not costing the team too much if you die unlike Thermite/Hibana/Fuze. Alternatively if you want to learn camera positions in maps, IQ is a decent choice, although she requires proper team communication to be useful which is almost never the case in Casual. Ash is also decent for opening up holes, and with Thatcher you only need to follow Thermite around while disabling any jammers/electronics on reinforced walls so that Thermite can blow a big fucking hole in it.

play recruit

also
Only two? But I'm pretty sure you get 6000 renown just for getting all the objectives. Also, watch tutorials for additional 600.

Rook and Fuze. Unless it's hostage and then you pick the gayer offensive ops

Now that you mention, yeah I fucked up, I probably can buy a few more.

If I am not mistaken the price starts at 500 and for each operator go up 500, capping at 2k? 500>1000>1500>200 and why the fuck new operators cost 25000, that`s jewish as fuck

Yeah. Also, fridays are sale days, I hear.

so discount on operators? What about attachments? Should I ignore them until I have a good amount of operators?

The new operators are that much because they don't like giving new toys to idiots who can't pick fuze and not blow up the hostage.

Has anyone tried playing with blackbars?

...

beautiful

Get your shit together Ubisoft, or better sell this game to someone competent. Also
But i've got to admit there's something about this game. I hope they somehow improve these things.

ACOG + Foregrip is the meta. Muzzle device is up to your preference. Suppressor's a viable choice now since the white indicator if you get shot at. Never use laser sight.

Why dont you assemble a team with the guys here

ACOG if available, Reflex is the second best choice. Foregrip has zero disadvantages and is always used. Muzzle brake is the best for burst fire, compensator is the best for full-auto. Laser sight is only used on secondaries by shield operators, they are a heavy disadvantage everywhere else

I have a lot of people added here but the people who drop IDs are a certain kind of people to say the least so I won't get anyone new.

Damn, I wish I could help

i dont rly hab de gaem :DDD

...

Mute is objectively the best op in the game

He's a lot better now than he used to be since there's fewer Thatchers running around, having been replaced by Fuzes and other selfish attackers.

And he's pretty easy to use, only slightly more learning than Rook

If I wasnt playing Fuze I'd play Thatcher or Twitch more. Fuze is a huge boon, though, so I find it risky not to have anyone running him

...

I've got some good results from placing it on the top floor on the plane, it took me some time to realize that most of the floor up there is destructible.

Cluster the hostage room, got it.

I thought it was just a meme

gotta try to get those season pass sales somehow
tfw when i had bought half of the season 1 dlc ops through grind before getting annoyed and getting season pass to play hibana early
goys must feel this way all the time


it already has a pretty big reddit infestation because they admittedly make decent and numerous memes about the game which does pull people in because meme magic is very much real

all memes like that are based on some reality, and i'm at 300+ hours and still run into people shooting hostages or blowing them up somehow, it will never stop especially in casual setlist

...

Same here it's already on their forums.

good thing its just points this week, although i was enjoying getting charms for challenges instead of just points

It's great when there are wood floors, and the enemy team doesn't realize or know that you're right above them ready to drop death. They really need to buff Jaeger's ADSs though, because as it stands virtually nothing can stop fuze if he's determined to carpet bomb a certain area.

just place jammers near windows and wooden walls while camping on the floor above the objective

Maybe have one or two guy max up there could be useful, but it's still a lot on the off chance there is a fuse in the enemy team.

worst case scenario, the enemy team kills you on the floor above and you get to warn your team that the enemy is approaching from above
best case scenario, if the enemy doesn't approach the upper floor for some time, you can flank them from above if their attention isn't focused at your direction

I think they just need to revert the Fuze buff. Fuze's guns are all really good even without him using his gadget. Shit, even with a shield and he's amazing because the Makarov hits for 25 damage at max falloff and 2-3 shots people up close depending on if they decided to take Rook's armor.

Mute's wifi, Jaeger's ADS, and either Valkyrie's Blackeyes or roamers watching those week spots. Fuze tends to drop situational awareness when moving in to plant, so watch those opportune areas and send him bullets to have him second-guessing his ideas.

Or kill him first. That's actually never a bad idea as he tends to have the most casualty producing gadget AND can get a LMG, making him a Russian rape ranger.

For some, but not all, this is preferable. Having the eyes above to watch the hatch AND peek down in case the enemy gets in is generally better than either the enemy getting the height advantage or only having a highly linear means of repelling an enemy advance. Assymetrical warfare is a cruel bitch.

this, once I reinforced a hatch above the objective room after which Hibana destroyed it, only for her to enter the objective room in through another route at the same floor of the objective room as I got her from above using the hole she herself created

shooting a hole in window barricades with high caliber rifles and unloading your gun at it once you see something move behind it does miracles against Fuze

Is this game actually good?
it doesn't seem that special
also it's 50$

You can get it for 20$ or less, which is what the game is worth. Just don't buy it if you have no one to play it with or you will just get mad at vidya.

its above average to good but not worth 50 dollars, i love this game and have put many hours into it but would not tell anyone to buy it full price as its multiplayer only and the terrorist hunt mode is fucking fluff.

what i will say is that it has hands down the best destruction physics on the market right now because it actually fully affects gameplay and can radically change the outcome of a match, some of the better design choices i'm convinced are actually a fluke by ubisoft

i barely play tachanka and i want his bushido set, fucking jewbisoft

what? Did he get one too? But I agree, I have grind bucks let me use them jewbisoft.

i was laughing but felt kinda bad

That was fucking beautiful.

Yeah fuck no this shit ain't fun in the slightest

Hence why nobody plays ranked.
Well, that and the absurdly long queue times.

So I can safely say that level and rank don't matter then.

manage to drop castle and wound some one else before they take me down
SEE. YOU. IN HELL.

Level matters a little since it's generally a decent measure of whether or not someone will know the maps and how not to Fuze the hostage room. Rank doesn't matter, it's always been fucked by cheaters.

What the fuck is wrong with this matchmaking, I cant get a single fucking game without getting an error code or an endless loading screen

...

Jesus Christ, what the fuck.

I can get tons of games but its always me, a few gold and silver players against a team of platinums / diamonds.
Theres something really wrong with the matchmaking.

Soviet hockey pucks of death home in on capitalist pigs.

As far as I can tell and as far as patch notes have said, there is no skill assessment in casual matchmaking. It just slaps ten players together as fast as it can. It used to take time played/account level into consideration but they removed that because it was fucking something up.

Well shit, guess I gotta stop playing casual then.

Your alternative is ranked which is full of aimbotters and wallhackers so it's really a lose/lose choice, best bet is just to find some people of decent enough skill to queue with in casual and try not to take it too seriously when you get put in an awfully one-sided game.

I keep getting connection failed when I try to connect to a friend.
I have open nat, I have ports forwarded, I have fucking everything right. He has moderate nat and we can't connect because the fucking swedecucks that made this game have no fucking idea how to make proper hitreg, servers or netcode.

I feel like you're right but I'm just assuming it's me being shit / peekers bullshit advantage.

Yeah, that shit can be really fucking lame sometimes. You just KNOW that comms traffic is a stream of apologies and obscenities.

Still laughed though.

works for me :)

I feel you, man. 2-0x0000E000 is a bitch.

i love and hate this shit

Is it just me or can you not see the puck from thermite's perspective at all?

it seems to have bounced right under his field of view

Yeah but I thought you would at least be able to see it fly out of the window, I can't see even a tiny speck of black coming from it.

This reminds me of my very first death in Siege.
**Played coop as Thatcher. Gathered up with Fuze and IQ infront of that one side entrance at the cafe. Fuze planted a charge because there were several terrorists inside and detonated it. One of the pucks just bounced off the wall on the other side and rolled back under the door, killing all 3 of us.

...

DO IT

What if Castle had 3 reinforcements? Seems like a simple thing to do to make him slightly less useless and it would fit his purpose.

I think making the barriers immune to melee, and a third reinforcement would make him as defensive as he should be.

I would get behind that. ZING

Yeah. It would be nice to have a "must have pick" for defense. Offense has thatcher, thermite, and fuze as some "must haves" but defense not really, except maybe jaeger or rook because they are so situational.

Rook and Mute are definitely must haves in this age of Fuze dominance, I would say Pulse or Valkyrie too. All the rest are basically interchangeable, Bandit can do about as good roaming as Jaeger and with Fuze's charges being too fast for the anti-grenade shit and nobody really using other grenades it generally seems more useful to cover walls with batteries so Mute can use his jammers on windows and doors. It feels like unless it's hostage you have to build your whole team around shutting down or picking off Fuze before he gets to roll the dice on his free RNG kills.

...

what if mutes would just remember to put jammers behind castle walls so fuze doesn't get a free charge, it takes like 12-13 melee strikes to break a castle wall and its noisy as fuck so i would keep them breakable through that means


even before fuze got 3 charges the magpies couldn't stop all his bombs, but jaeger is such a peep king i still like to play him

Jaeger still sees a lot of use, flashes and frags are still viable options against defenders. Mute is ALWAYS usefull, limiting attacker intel is simply too useful. Bandit can be pretty good with Mute and Jaeger aslo, but like Mute he needs to be flexible for really good useage. Bandit's anti-Thermite trick, etc

...

Ay random low level fags can wreck smug clan faggots sometimes.

seen it a million times

So far I haven't even played a full minute tonight and I'm already fucking pissed and ready to uninstall because of these fucking retards.

unfortunate but this will happen in any damn game

Please end my suffering.

>OpFor has captured the objective. Mission Failed

I want these "le epik memmers" to fuck off out of this game and back to reddit and then die.

Fuck, I had the most useless Montagne in existence a week ago

Man it's so fucking irritating to have been playing this game for like a fucking year, sucking that whole time, and now finally be topping scoreboards and knowing it's only because the average player skill has plummeted from Christmas sales and not because I've actually gotten any better at it.

i should try that trick more often, but fuze is godlike in a match like that

Could someone explain that comic to me? I know the characters, but I do not understand the significance of the relationships.

its a shop of a beartato comic. hibana references thermite as her friend in her trailer, so people make jokes about thermite smashing that good pixel pussy, thatcher is a valuable asset to any thermite player thus the friend he already has

it's an edit

...

...

oddly enough i just saw a capitao fail to track a outside enemy 12 feet infront of him, then overcook his grenade and kill himself

let them be salty, you should always watch windows

I was aware it was a Nedroid comic, but I have yet to unlock Hinaba so I had no idea she referenced Thermite in her trailer. I just figured she was somehow complementary to Thermite in a way I couldn't understand.

her bio also says she worked with FBI SWAT for awhile so ubis attempt at getting character flavor means she probably knows ash too

Well not only does she reference him, but their gadgets are both the only things in the game capable of destroying reinforced walls.

fuck shields

I can't take solo-queuing any more.
chenhonkster

sent you a friend request, though I dont know if I'll be playing any more tonight since it's being super glitchy and I'm mad as fuck already.

Seriously this shit needs to be fucking fixed
It's fucking [CURRENT YEAR] and this shit has been like this since [CURRENT YEAR -2], when the fuck are Ubisoft finally going to fix a bug with a patch instead of making them worse and adding more?

you need more ram, or turn off your internet browser
protip: set browser to save last session

Tried that before, doesn't do shit.

Holy shit what
My fucking sides

what the fuck kind of teams are playing tonight

I can't fathom these people, why do they hate other people having fun?

What fucking retards are these people? They're not even fucking listening.

What are the differences between the shields? I know blitz has a a paper thin one for some fucking reason, but how does Fuze's and recruit's shield compare to Montagne's?

FUCK

They're pretty much all slightly better than Blitz's but you'll still die way too often to people just spraying right into your shield head on. Only exception is deployed Montagne shield which is the only one that is actually guaranteed to stop bullets that hit it.

FUZE HAS DEFUSER
"GET IN HERE AND SET THE DEFUSER OR DROP IT YOU FUCKING MUD MONKEY"

I hate BRs.

This game gets buggier every time I launch it.

I feel a little bit better after finding some way to piss off recruit only players.

makes me sorta wish this game had proximity voice so you could hear enemies sometimes, or so people can hear X GONNA GIVE IT TO YA as montagne rolls down a hall. but since people use discord and similar programs a lot it wouldn't really matter

I guess these stats must be all different now.

how

and i don't get why ash is so popular,

I'd wager Montagne is above Blitz and IQ now, Fuze is definitely at the top, ash might have moved ahead of Thermite too since probably a third of all Thermite picks are Hibanas instead now. I don't know where the DLC ops would be or if anything has really changed for defenders though Castle and Kapkan seem a lot more prevalent and Smoke a lot less so.

Fast and easy to use gadget. People don't necessarily rely on you all the time and you don't necessarily rely on them either.


Kapkan's traps were really shit at the beginning and that image is still from that time. Thermite's pick rate also dropped when they took the frags from him.

I wish there was more vidya that would use proxy chat but as you pointed out using external comms would just override it. It's a shame it's been devolved really as a gimmick.
That got a good laugh out of me.

what the fuck. is the damage on impacts low enough to not warrant carrying them around, or was this some bullshit bug?

They're not strong enough to kill someone in one hit unless the person is already injured. A low armor enemy probably dies if they're hit by two, not sure. They're more for making holes apart from that.

Impact grenades are pretty much complete garbage, bring them on maps like Border, House or training for bomb where you can use them to blow down walls connecting the bomb rooms and don't bother ever trying to use them offensively except maybe to spam at a corner you think someone might be preparing to peek.

ah alright thanks, i just figured grenade=kill dudes
christmas noob here

claymores work best as roamer denial and when used in conjunction with bait
many players tend to not look at the ground for traps when there's other players nearby alerted to their position

I noticed they work quite well when you're securing, defusing or grabbing the hostage and a defender is in a hurry to get to you.

impact grenades aren'y really to be used offensively, they're about making quick holes in walls to escape through or clear paths between bombs

Worse every day

I call bullshit, you can't see cav's legs from her kill cam.

wouldn't the final replay be from cavs first person view?

Is castle really that useless?

No, unless they have Ash or Sledge he's extremely useful unless the enemy has a Fuze and they coordinate the attack in which you run out of the room and you die as they're right outside the door. Tips for him are to close windows and only one doorway in the objective room.

i wouldn't say useless but easy to use incorrectly, you pretty much need to team him up with mute to make him effective

I've seen whole teams die just because their Castle was a retard and locked everyone in. That makes him even worse than useless.
That said, he can really slow down certain attackers on their way to the objective, which is very effective when the time is running out.

Nope, because she interrogated after she downed me with her magic transforming weapon and for some reason that's a third person animation.

Fucking Chinese.

I have no words.

i'm convinced that ash's 1armor rating is a lie

i'm sure ash can also survive a head/neck shot too

Where's the surprise.

and every single fucking jäger peek JUST IN TIME TO KILL ME

Bump of death.

>TEAM REINFORCES WALLS BETWEEN THE TWO SITES AND GIVE ENEMIES EASY ACCESS TO B
Needless to say that we lost it big time

You'd think shooting someone in the face with a shotgun from five feet distance would kill someone, let alone do more than 20 damage.

Playing shotguns makes me get massively mad for that reason.

Newbs can run in call of dooty style before def is setup. That is literally the only reason.

Its an easy strategy for players who dont know what they're doing with a decent success ratio

Hes not useless but His skill caps is high and because of that every retard uses it incorrectly and causes teamkills. Similar to fuze hitting hostage or ash breaching windows at spawn, or smoke not CCing doors, or solo roaming pulses or rooks that dont drop their armor at mouse holes or worse wait until the game has started

Holy shit that is an awesome tip, thanks user

You can't do that anymore though.

what's CCing mean? i assume has something to do with placing his bombs on doors to provide entry denial

note to self, never play Castle unless the guy playing Mute has a decent level

CC stands for Crowd Control, and yeah you basically got the concept right. Not necessarily using the smoke to kill someone, but as a preventative measure to block off an entry for a short while.

ah good so i've been using them right, that or using them to kill downed guys behind cover to prevent revives

Yeah they're a much better control device than a kill device. I've seen so many smokes use the grenades solely to try and get kills and 9/10 times it doesn't do a thing and they get killed by someone flanking them while they sit there staring at the smoke.

...

Someone could break the wall with melee and throw a grenade in. Theoretically.

true, but it still seemed like overkill

Maybe he just wanted to cover that corner from potential fuze charges.

that's what the jammer is for, although sometimes if fuze plants high enough he can avoid the jammer

but jaegers magpie can't stop a fuze charge very well either, it can only hit 2-3 of the bombs

They can bounce around you know, so unless you covered the entire room it's not useless.

jewbisoft posted this

Did they nerf Fuze and not post anything about it or something? Every fucking time I try to bomb a room I get killed by someone who sat in it right through the explosions and took no damage.

Also when the fuck are they going to let you mute people in the text chat? It's so fucking annoying when you run into faggots spamming memes in the chat and you can't do anything about it, this is a common fucking feature in like every fucking online game and yet over a fucking year later there's still no sign of it.

You can ignore the chat easily since it's semitransparent and non-intrusive (not at the top of the screen) in its location.

Why does rook look like a fucking monkey?

Not an acceptable solution.

I swear all these diamond players are fucking cheaters.

new thread whenb

Fuze's hockey pucks are super random. They must've gotten super lucky since there is no safe spot, as I've even gotten tke'd by my own puck while hanging OUTSIDE the next window.

Dying through reinforced walls is the best.
