Heartbreaking defeat:

first for birdbeard

...

omg

why am I seeing so many laser sights now?
Do they actually do something?

>vaulting a shotgun hole

They don't create a trail, only the dot at the end of the sight. It's still not worth it in most cases.

>someone go reinforce hatch please

>peeking for your team at 1 health

I swear to god Echos gun actually does negative damage or some shit
In the right general this time

stopped being lazy and tested it myself, I prefer the Muzzle Brake

If you're the 1% of actually good players and know your crosshair placement, there's no reason to not to use it.

but i thought the meta was compensator

tightens the spread of shotguns

eh, personal preference I guess
I found the muzzle brake has less recoil during the first few bullets, which I prefer

It depends on the gun and personal preference

I have enough renown to unlock Montagne or Blitz. Wat do /r6g/

Play with shield recruits for a bit until you start hating shields.

If you want to suffer, get Blitz.
If you want to suffer and sometimes be useful for your team, get Memetagne.

are you playing the starter edition or something?

Get Montagne, at least he's actually usable.

>blackbird

>tfw not native speaker and used to pronounce it blackbird all the time

i know. i'm just parroting some shit I heard a "pro" commentator say

never ever

>tfw native speaker but heavy accent
>accent causes me to pronounce blackbird as "blackbeard"

Thanks anons, sounds like memetag.

Nah, just bad.

I'd dig an sr-71 blackbeard

i usually just do it myself and hope nobody reinforces between bombs while im gone

The muzzle brake is criminally underrated on guns that have a high first shot recoil, like the 416C, SCAR, or Para FAL. That first shot with less recoil smooths out the controllability when you fire a burst.

What gun do you use on Echo? I really like his SuperNova

Finally got 25k, which dlc operator should I get? except memebeard Is valkyrie good?

Valk is fun. As of right now Hibana is probably the strongest DLC operator. Caveira is quite fun, as are both of the JTF2 guys. You can't really go wrong.

I'll buy Valk. She got muscles, cameras and great guns, what else can you wish for.

True

Yeah Valk is good and she has the spas-12

Cav is the weakest of the DLC but you can pick whatever one you think would be fun.

>Still no Australian Operators

>Playing like trash all night

Have some fresh shit, right out of the toilet

>Ranked team randoms of all level 140s+
>play solid for the first 3 rounds
>match point
>"lol guys lets dick around and pick troll objective points"
>can't majority vote cause duoqueue
>3 - 4
>"omg you fucking noobs stop messing around"
>3 - 5
>"you guys fucking suck I don't know why the fuck you guys wanted to troll and throw"

All. The. Fucking. Time.

I feel you
I got verbaly abused for the first time tonight
not even mad
I was playing like shit

Doesnt matter which gun you use, you wont be doing any fucking damage

>he can't headshot
>he thinks the supernova doesn't do damage

Acquire skill

Might as well take the Nova, you always have the Bearing if you need to kill something at range, and the shotgun is great team utility and also helpful in a pinch if someone pushes right up on you.

But on the other hand, Acog + no recoil is bretty gud.

I like it

>Headshotting implying a gun does damage when literally every gun one hit kills with a headshot
>implying a pump action shotgun that does the damage of a semi auto shotgun doesnt have a low DPS

Everyone good at the game doesn't have a problem with Echo

>attacker with a neat utility crossbow
>defender with the ultimate stealth mode
>both are BR huehues
why u do this to me.
I'm gonna just get capitao anyway, but I'll need some serious dosh to put a bag on caveira's tribal paints.

The only problem I have with Echo are the players.

Till today, 90% of Echo players I've play with or against all fucking suck.

I neeed Pepe thermique pls

I wouldn't worry because Caveira sucks anyway

this game is garbge

agreed

aolright that settles it, delete the thread

Cheers lads, it's been emotional.

Someone try to get in contact with Ubi, they need to know this as well. Maybe we can get the servers down as early as today.

seems like theyve already taken care of that for us

Anyone else having a horrendous problem with matchmaking errors? The past few days, every match I try to join gives me the same error. What confuses me is that I've never had this kind of problem.

Why/how does electric barbwire destroy a fucking bear trap. A BEAR TRAP!

it doesnt

Well then someone tried to stick some device to electrified wall the same moment I electrified a Wire with trap in it.

Can you put a frost trap down, cover it with razor wire and electrify the wire to make an leathal electric trap?

Does it work?

Yes.

FOOKIN' LASER SIGHTS

...

...

Haven't been able to play this week because I'm moving. Echo was a blast though I think I found my new favourite defender

>MP5SD
>The MP5SD is black and not shitty green
>Shotgun shenanigans because I have a machine pistol for backup
>Comfy drone mode safe from harm
>Can ambush and assault the attackers
>My only dislike is the fat armour but it can be useful against all the stray bullets

Feels like it put the comfy back into defending again which I haven't felt since release rather than running around like a mad cunt as Valk/Jager or sitting around being a useless cunt like Rook.
Are the fun times over now? Is he easy to bypass now?

>Shoot Valkyrie in the head
>No blood, no nothing
>What, shoot her again
>and again
>and again
>She reacts to the white markers, turns around and instant headshots me
What.
The.
Actual.
Fuck.

We both had you missed
I didn't.

Is yokai immune to thatcher's grenades? I threw 2 into a room where i know i saw the drone. Ended up just shooting the thing.

EMPs temporarily disable the drone and make it fall to the ground, but don't destroy it.

>5 speed 0 armor

that's pants on head retarded, but I guess it kinda makes sense since being able to shut down an entire op's gimmick by randomly spamming emps would make him even more shit than he is
at least IQ absolutely dicks on him, even worse than pulse or valk

It feels good to play Twitch and punish bad Echo players by taking away their shiny new toy before the round even starts.

>going so fast the netcode can even catch you

fug, can't*

every1 gud @ le game doesnt hav a pribmel w/ tachank xddd
his gunz 1shot headshoot :ppppppp

This is literally you.

mp5sd once I do unlock him
how could I not use this sexy beast?

Had something similar happen we both had pings around 80-60 but somehow i injured her with a headshot

I actually had something similar happen yesterday too, also against Valk.

>peeking into objective as blackbeard, see her leg but not rest of body
>shoot leg, no blood
>shoot leg, no blood
>shoot leg, no blood
>she moves away
>peeks back out standing up and headshots me through my fucking shield

Maybe you did in fact miss. What I mean is that Valkyrie's model could've been in the wrong spot to you and to everyone else it looked you were firing misses.

...

>bottom picatinny rail
fucking savage

Still requesting a drawfag edit of this with Ash and Twitch.

How do I git gud with fuze? Will people kick me for using mg?

step 1: don't use LMGs
ever
seriously dont

step 2: shoot people the same way you do as every other operator

But Fuze PKP ain't that bad actually

And the devs/ubicocksuckers claim the netcode is perfect.

Ayy.

Just don't fuze the hostage, DON'T GET YOUR SHOT DRONE IN PREP, and remember your fat ass can be heard two blocks away.
Don't be shy fuzing gadgets though, especially if your thatcher got picked off, because it still helps your team. You'll rarely get kills with cluster, but it can make a murderhole in a castle barricade.

Anyone else that can't get into any orange team terrorist hunt? Every lobby is blue team.
Second day in a row now, got a challenge that needs to get done.

Nice user. But wouldn't be "fookin delet this" be better?

you mean you wanna defend? Just set matchmaking preferences on THunt on protecting hostage only.

The spray pattern on Fuze's LMG looked alot better than IQ's. I stopped using it, but still. Might be okay if you plan on shooting through walls a bunch.

LMGs arent bad because of their spray pattern, but because it takes a year and a half for you to ADS.
You're gonna get shot in the head before you're halfway done ADSing into your behemoth.

Only retarded people claim it is perfect. Or people who cannot grasp the fact that their precious game is not perfect and want to see the fault in your skill.

Check your matchmaking preferences.

>don't use LMGs
But why? Dunno about other lmg's, but fuze mg is good, it deals more damage than AK and huge mag allows to "literally" lock people down.

first, see second, in a meta where everyone aims for the head since its a 1shot kill even with a pistol damage on weapons is absolutely irrelevant

>Casual
>Some guy insists on reinforcing Closet when defending kids bedroom
>Lose that round
>Lose attack as well because him and another guy are arguing about it and no one can hear anything
>defending kids again
>guy who reinforced closet gets tk'ed
>oh fuck here we go
>somehow we win 4v5 anyway
>next round a revenge tk comes out
>again, somehow win 4v5
>last round we give the two of them a pep-talk and get them to agree to not tk each other
>later that round, these two are the last alive
>they communicate well and clutch it out
It's nice when good things happen.

Mp5 or P90 for Doc?

MP5 unless you're playing lone wolf t-hunt
