HARD-FOUGHT VICTORY:

First for gopnik Fuze

1st for remove frogs from the playerbase

thatcher is asleep, everyone post laser sights

Rook!

April 23rd, mark your calendar

Man, Coastline has some filthy spots to peek rappelling attackers

That's really irritating.
If anything the full size of it would make it a bit heavier and easier to control than say Mute's.

How come whenever my team has an Echo, he's a retard that stays on Yokai until an attacker waltzes up to him while he's distracted and knifes him, and then when it's the enemy team's Echo, he's a tactical mastermind that times his stuns perfectly to catch the team off-guard and pop everyone off?

i am shit at the game

1st for homemade tattoo flash.

Jager and Bandit best operators

git gud_____________

Am i the only one who think Jackal is hot?

Yes

i decided to quit the game

>Overheals himself, shoots downed allies with his P9
You can't let the enemy have kills

fair enough

>liking the feisty middleaged mediterranean lover
I didn't know 40 year old women were on /r6g/

You obviously have uplay installed, right? Verify files of the game on Steam and uplay

>Implying

Jackals the type of guy to land on the cover a love novel

What was the rule of thumb for barrel attachments? I know DMR's should have the muzzle break but what about automatic weapons?

compensator, duh

Drawfriend here; important question to all interested:
I've noticed a lot more requests for the Echo /ss/ pic than the POV sequel to the Frost smut I promised a couple threads back.
I want a quick vote on how many of you want which one first. I can definitely do the /ss/ first for variety if enough people want me to, because I'm getting both done eventually anyways.

And as for the /ss/, I need more feedback on what you want with it. Never drawn shota before, so I need to know your tastes so I can make it as pleasing as possible, no matter when I end up getting started on it.

hey guys, how is everyone today

You might as well just finish the frost one, then start working on the echo.

Well I remember somebody saying that you should use the flash hider if it was under a certain rpm and if it was over said rpm you should use the compensator. Couldn't remember what it was.

>domed by shield hipfire across the map through a wall

I'm ready to murder someone at Ubi for this elo glitch

but shields are completely balanced now ignore the fact that they can do that while being invincible to everything

Flash hiders on SMGs most of the time since they reduce horizontal recoil and help more with bursts, Muzzle Brakes for most ARs since most of them have more significant first shot recoil, and Muzzle brakes help a lot with easing into the recoil of the shots following the first and make control feel more consistent.
If you don't have an issue with first shot recoil on a rifle though, Flash hider is the way to go due to the slight horizontal recoil reduction, plus no more muzzle flash means it's easier to track your targets.
I never use compensators since the early shots in a burst are always the most important, and comps take way too long to start having an effect.
Use what you find works best, but this is where I start for each gun.

Go away, terrorist

I haven't gotten started on either yet, so I was just asking so I don't start getting pressured to do the Echo piece while I'm already working on the other. I know at least one user was already getting impatient, so if people want it more I'd rather work on that since I've already pleased the Frost fans long enough to hold them over (I think).

Just finish the Frost one first since it seems like you've been working on it for a bit anyways.

As for the /ss/ maybe do cowgirl, one with Mira and one with IQ. Unless you can think of a creative way of including them both in one pic with Echo.

see Also I was thinking of having IQ and Mira fighting over little Echo, in some degenerate, sexual way.
Also I might have to keep this one in the booru only, I just realized it might not be 100% legal or some shit

That's an interesting idea. Also, do you live in France or some shit?

>Mira
Mira is pure

Which Thermite hat to buy? Cost isn't an issue but they all look like shit
Maybe the Red Crow one

I just went with the rock star one. It isn't just a recolor and it doesn't look TOO terrible.

mandible

Do you NEED to buy a hat?

No, I'm a burger, I just haven't read up on the legality of Shota and assume it's practically considered child porn.
Also even if it is legal it's a step above just normal smut and I might not necessarily want my future employers to see it, but maybe I should just stop giving a shit.

Mira may be pure in your mind, but she can be lots of other things in anyone else's. That's what the imagination is for ya dingus.

Red Crow is his best seasonal imo, but the rockstar one actually grew on me since I first saw it. At least it's designed fairly well despite being more on the gaudy side. I still use Orbit though.

too bad gsg9 has the worst attackers

If legality is a concern wherever you may live, then maybe you could make Echo just an awkward lanky 18 year old or something. Kinda like Hachiman from Oreigaru - something like that. The girls would still be quite a bit older than him.

Not really, but I've been sitting on a fat pile of renown for a while now. Went with Buck's touque, 200 ping Ash gear, few others. I play Themite a lot too so why not?

Yeah, I'm stuck between Red Crow and Orbit. Orbit's not bad, but it just looks so cheesy

You missed the pro league one thats like the best one

>sitting at 240,000 renown
>have $16 in my steam wallet with nothing to spend it on
>eagerly waiting for ubisoft to inevitably release some really gaudy kawaii universal weapon skin or elite uniform so i can use it and trigger people

Which guns should I bother upgrading? Which are the best?

>"See look his bio says he's 37"
>"Then why'd you draw him like he's 13?"
>"I fucked his proportions, oops."

Just like Headcrusher (or whatever it's called) grew on me, i've liked Orbit less and less since I bought it. I'm thinking of making the switch over to the rockstar headgear, but Red Crow is a good choice regardless.

pic related is unironically my favorite skin in the game, and I almost feel bad for it since I normally only like the simpler ones like the new Grey and Black skins, and the older cold war universals.

Vague question. It depends on who you play, but you should honestly be upgrading all of the guns you think you'll ever use.

Well I usually play Rook, Mute, Pulse, Thermite, and Twitch.

All of them? I can't think of a gun that performs best naked. Even if you prefer iron sights, vert grips are always a plus with no downsides, and you'd always want some muzzle device over nothing.

I forgot pic related.

MP5 for rook, F2 for Twitch, and the automatic choices for all of the other ones.

Shotguns don't need attachments to be usable so no need to waste renown if you're still low level. Twitch's F2 is great but the 417 is still viable so do whichever you prefer.

I really wish that skin was a universal one. It's very colorful and pleasing to me.

give it to me straight r6g
can i use semi-auto on every gun and succeed?

YES

Theoretically, if you can land headshots like a fucking machine, absolutely.
Given liability of human error though, probably not. More bullets per second gives you more chances to kill and more room for error, which pretty much everyone needs.

What are the best shotguns? Don't some characters have beetter shotguns than everyone else?

SPAS-15 is p much the best in game right now.

I fucking hate Montange so much.

SAS shotgun

It should've been one of the Japanese universals.
It's colorful, while still being clean and well designed, unlike pic related and other cancer skins the game has.

Most of the shotguns are viable, there are only a couple that perform significantly worse than others. Everyone will give you a different answer, but just know the FBI shotgun and GEO secondary shotgun are probably the weakest of them all currently.

>As a Newby to R6S

I've finally unlocked all the OG OP's but something I don't understand is how is it that there are SOOO many ppl that own most yr 1 OP's and now yr 2 OP's??

Where the hell do you get the money to get them? You get hardly and Reknown from playing, and it's hard to believe THAT many players just outright bought them with ubishekles??

what does single shot recoil thingy even do

Play more, its not hard to unlock them. uplay says I have 600+ hours in pvp horwever

>but just know the FBI shotgun and GEO secondary shotgun are probably the weakest of them all currently.
I'd argue the Supernova is the most underwhelming shotgun currently.
You need ~3 shots just to drop someone in the same room. That' unacceptable in a game where you die in half a second to anything else.

>You need ~3 shots just to drop someone in the same room
Not true.
It has one of the longest shotgun kill ranges in the game if you aim for center mass like you're supposed to, right next to the Frenchie shotgun. Are you aiming for the head? that doesn't deal any additional damage anymore.
Having a tighter spread with slightly lower damage just means you have to really center your aim on the enemy, and you can't kill as easily with only half of the crosshair over their mass.

>unlike pic related
Go away

I hate shotguns in general. They always seem to be worthless or broken. (Or worthless outside of a 5 foot range.)

People get them from buying the season passes. Playing a ton is another way to unlock them.

If you bought the starter edition don't expect to pretty much ever purchase all of the characters in game, because they increased the grinding so much.

Montagne is a toxic kit in general. Basically the only way deal with him is to waste ALL of your explosives and hope he's low enough, to abuse the ping/latency to knife him, or to run.

I really love when the game decides not to count towards my challenges, its not annoying at all haha

Is it even possible to listen to music while playing Siege?

where's trap echo?

>toxic
Hey buddy, I think you got the wrong door. The Reddit club's two blocks down...

Most of the time that just means it's delayed. Annoying as shit, but for some reason it'll just take a minute (or ten) to actually process that you did something.
Only time it was genuinly broken is when the SAT challenge first rolled in, and none of the round wins registered at all since the SAT themselves were bugged and didn't even track stats.

Not really.

Fuck you.

What's wrong? No seriously, you've given me no substantial context as to why you're upset.

Who wins?

What happened to Blitz that he's trash now?

Same boat. Just got 4 shotgun kills in a single round, nothing.

mira is a sexually frustrated christmas cake there is nothing pure about her

echo has good taste

we win

Stalemate:
They both get boners

I seriously just played with some retard who used his black mirrors just to make murder holes

YOU TAKE THAT BACK


RIGHT NOW

Ash isn't able to break black mirrors?

Only if they're on unreinforced walls

she's an exhibitionist too

only heebana and therm can if its on a reinforced meme

>only heebana and therm can if its on a reinforced meme
Speak English for fuck's sake.

>Doesn't like the Cramoisi skin
I bet your hate the purple skin too

Sorry, I don't have shit taste

Toxic isn't the right word, but he's right.

Even though Montagne isn't good, he's still an annoyance.

>tfw some 14 year old picks Blitz on my team and then we all get spawn peeked by Tachanka on Presidential Plane

Fucking ebin. I can't even tell if Ranked or Casual is worse anymore.

im just speaking the truth
thats why she made black mirrors. so she could put them on the mens shower in hereford and spy on them

her gadget was literally made for exhibitionism

Montagne is good, people just don't play him right. He's annoying, but how threatening he is depends on a lot of factors that can't be as easily abused without good coordination on the defense.
Barbed wire, Smoke, and Echo can all deal with him pretty well, but in lower skill-levels you don't see as much Echo or razor wire, and low-level Smokes love to blow their loads early instead of saving them for when they're needed.

...

>game puts up us against a smurfing clan in casual

Kill me.

I know which is what pisses me off.

He's just another "new player killer" character.

People like me aren't ever going to be good enough to deal with him or be placed with teammates that can deal with him, so he's always going to be an annoying cunt to me.
