AUSTRALIAN OPERATORS WHEN

Bad game

thoughts on capitao in ranked?

Not as bad as people say, although not >>>Meta

If you pick Tachanka in ranked on the other hand, I might have to come over to your house to woop your ass.

>Haven't played in ages
>Didn't have much map knowledge then to begin with
>Play Skyscraper for the first time just now
>Get to witness the power of 0 map knowledge.

I was useless as fuck

Don't worry, it's a shit map anyway

Bad post

Tachanka should be reworked to, rather than deploying his machine gun, carry it but move really slowly when he does, and obviously he can't aim down sights with it but it should be fairly accurate in short bursts and break through cover as well as Glaz's gun at least. I dunno if that would make him viable, but I'd like to see it tried.

You could just speed up teardown and deployment times so that he can actually reposition his MG. Buff damage, allow for 360 degree rotation and you've got yourself a viable operator for holding down sections of map.

I have a question regarding Chalet

Is there any way to kill a defender that is watching the ladder outside library through a hole in the barricaded window? Or are you absolutely forced to flank around or kill him from Game Room?

Because as you climb up the ranks, that ladder seems like suicide.

theres a ladder for the ledge to the room your talking about thats a safer place to climb to that area and you can vault from there either into the room or the balcony without climbing the ladder your talking about.
but obviously just drone it out first.

Emu warfare

>pick p90
>guns aims itself at heads by himself

vatican city operators when?

Schlange, pls

shoot open the window and follow up with a frag
also there's an angle from the ground from where you can prefire his head

...

>he doesnt know basically military tactics

Well, not if you want to clear out EVERYONE per se

its called the run and cum tactic. what that guy has there isnt a standard rpg, its a rpcg (rocket propelled cum grenade). basically the guy with the with the rpcg goes in and fires it then they all leave, the enemy too confused to do anything.

Buck or Hibana?
Is Hibana just a faster Thermite?

OP FAQ boyo
DLC ops have a "unlock him if" section to help you choose

...

What are some sounds in Siege that just feel good for you?

For me it's the sound of reloading the MP7.

the pool area on clubhouse where the music plays, pretty comfy.

Although it's the complete opposite of what you said, I fucking hate the reload sound of Glaz's gun. Sounds like glass or some shit.

I do however like the firing sound of Fuze's MG, really sounds like A Big Gun.

The silenced SR25.

Its very tacticool.

fuck i mean coastline not clubhouse, clubhouse music is aids.

The sound that plays when someone takes out their phone to look at cameras/drones
I don't know why but I love it, and I can't quite figure out what they did to make it in real life

Anyone know?

The reloading sound for Buck's C8-SFW, specially when it's a full reload. It sounds so particularly mechanical and rackety, I love it

the firing sound of the MP7 with a suppressor

IQs footsteps

Stop

Silver queue sure is fun

Oh my god this tweet is so sad

What is your opinion on Smoke's smg?

...

FMG is meh
SMG-11 is still god tier
Pick the shotgun as primary

A mac-11 with an acog scope was stupid, let's be honest
In real life it can barely hit the broad side of a barn from a distance, so it makes zero sense to put magnified scopes on it

not saying it wasn't stupid but it sure was what made smoke fun.

Only for mucking about. Go for shotty

How many hours til i get good

When are they going to remove ACOGs from the GSG9 defenders?

They really shouldn't have access to firepower of that tier when they already have absolutely instrumental special abilities.

it's like that for me with the skeleton key full reload.

Depends how willing you are to learn from your mistakes.

Most people I know got decent at around level 70.

>lets make the game even more attack favored
nah

>BUT MUH ACOG
fuck off already

The game is defender favored. The fact proleague don't do ez run outs for kills, but still win says it all
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DaYg83vI5ZwwyMxj85bhl5FAUuCA7wETFTxfC921BGw/pubhtml#

Pro league is irrelevant to 99% of the player base.

Just because something works in the proleague does not mean it will work or hold true in the rest of the game.

Please stop for a second and consider just how retarded that statement is.

The game is balanced around proleague players, not shitters. So the data the devs get from them is relevant to the game

in the finals the only time BD managed to win a round was on attack

>Balancing a game around an absurdly small minority

But thats idiotic.

Proleauge is full of circlejerk anyway.

>Brought to you by the company that gave you Predator Glaz and Action Completed
Its ubi, what do you expect?

>Balancing the game around the 99% shitter majority is better

found this on reddit

Of course it is, they're easier to balance for and make you far more money.

Its an objectively better decision.

Those two are just a facet of a larger problem. There are several characters in this game who are just way too much good shit piled into one person, and who are picked way more often than others because of that.

Very useful/multifunctional primary gadget
Good secondary gadget
Light armor
High RoF gun
ACOG

Ash, Hibana, Jager and Bandit are the worst offenders by far in this regard, and their pickrate in both pub and pro games reflects that.

EMP removing a whole room full of defender gadgets

If you could only have one:
1. Shirtless Tachanka.
2. Swimsuits for all female operators.

Since this isn't reddit, number 2

>barefoot IQ or reddit
hmm

I fucking hate the Deagle. Useless piece of shit.

>Degenerate Footfag
commit suicide

you gay user?

SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU FILTHY DEGENERATE KEK FAGGOT FLAT IS JUSTICE

leave

I'm married to IQ

>degenerate
leave

Just got put into Silver 1. Does this make me the average shitter? Or the below average shitter.

just climb one rank to gold 4 than you are okay

the latter

I will now try to achieve gold.

T H U N K

IIRC silver+gold is the most populated bracket among active players. So yeah, somewhere near average.

Why cant I login to ubisoft club in a browser? Why cant I add a profile picture in the uplay program?

If I am gold 1 or 2 am I just above the average shitter or a bit above the average shitter?

where the drawfags at?

Was scroll wheel pistol spam ever fixed?

nope, and probably never will be.
only work around atm is to disable the scroll wheel while playing if it bothers you that much.

How do I disable your scroll wheel

if you have a non poorfag mouse you can disable via software.

What is this "Action Completed" you fucks are memeing about?

It's hard to say for sure. There's a lot of variance among similar ranks.

Since Platinum is generally considered good, and Gold 1 is very close to it, you can probably rest easy.

Have you launched the game and looked in the top right hand corner
Have you ever opened then closed uplay and then look in the top right hand corner
because then ACTION COMPLETED

k sending RAT

console fag detected

nope

What is he trying to say?

Action Completed

That he does not respect the modern meme phenomenon that is Filthy Frank.

No, I mean the footsniffer in the image.

caviera pins his head down with her feet and interrogates, jackal enjoying feet on his face is happy to oblige.

its the guy from the mgs5 prologue

Oh I'm dumb, forgot her heavy accent. Lucky guy.

Those are some disgusting feet, and I'm not even a footfag.

heres some nice ones then

>accidentally fell
>teammates nearby, all of them very low
>carried them more than one round
>ask for help
>slowly bleed out as I see them walking close to me
>get salty and call them morons
>one of them, the shittiest of them all starts calling me an idiot and telling me it is "my fault for falling"

How are people this uncooperative and stupid? what would've R6G done?
