First for wanting Valkyrie to roughly peg me while choking me with her perfect biceps

Which op has the best handgun?

spetsnaz

I'm not entirely sure why but I find the GSG-9 handgun far superior to all the other (non machine pistol) handguns. It's so much easier to get headshots with somehow.

>Yeah, you'll knock it back and leave the operator vulnerable. It doens't work on Montage when his shield is extended though

what do I do in that case?

Is Siege the first video game to legitimately consider removing maps from the game permanently? I've never heard about this.

Frost/Buck

It has best balanced stats

Oh, I forgot the spaznigger PMM. Maybe that, then, even though it shouldn't be half as strong as it is.

prone right in front of him if nobody's around and then shoot under it

t. monty main

Look at me
I use shotguns

>monty now has a three hole bandana
why would they do that, it looks terrible

*gives you a pat on the back*
I'm proud of you son.

>Ubisoft has to release OPs in 3s because of general fuckery
>We will literally have more Defenders available than Attackers to the next CTU update

>implying that matters when you can only pick five at a time

what?

>why would they give monty the type of balaclava he's had in his render since launch
good question

I get that. It's just something that amuses me. I'm still hype for the content though.

how do make aim the good?

>shoots random spray and headshot you across the map through walls
Remove this map from earth

A couple of nights ago some dumb nigger on my team in casual tried to argue that the defender/attacker imbalance was the reason they were getting rid of acogs on the GSG9 defenders, so he insisted it was a temporary change and they'd get them back with season 4 when the next 3 ops dropped.

i want to clean IQ's smelly feet after a sweaty tryhard overtime border match with my tongue!

Lower your sens, and use more of your arm and less of your wrist when you move your mouse.
Never lower your sens to the point where you can't 180 (or more) reliably though.
Make those adjustments and then drill for speed in THunt or some shit, unless you're brave enough to practice with new settings in casual.
That's about it for pure aim, but pre-aiming and pre-firing comes with experience, and in turn, game sense. Just keep that shit in mind whenever you get killed from a spot more than once.

I haven't followed the game in some time. GSG9 Defenders are losing ACOG? No more (not quite as many) spawn kills with those speedy fucks?

I need to see how they're treating bae in patch notes.

Ah I see, you're one of those "ask questions first, be autonomous and use google/learn to read later" kind of people.

tracking your IP

>Favela
>roaming as Kapkan after placing my traps; Castle locked me out of objective
>get headshot randomly through some wall
>a Thermite was shooting at his teammate and somehow killed me

just nomal difficulty thunt?

it really doesn't matter that much, but normal is better for not having to deal with as many bombers and late-spawning flanking terrorists.
Not getting shot doesn't really help you aim better, it just slows you down anyways.

>Favela
>2v1
>shoots black eye
>headshots last guy
I never snorted louder in my life

you can never know what will happen in the future, this patch is already extremely attacker favoured with double drone life, barbed wire nerf and removal of acog from non fats.
could be this patch turns the game extremely attacker sided and they will have to panic buff defenders during the reinforcements patch.
or it could be that the lightning change makes holo not absolute shit compared to acog.
its only in this game where 1x scopes are this bad, in BF4 targets are crystal clear long ranges with the 1x scopes, meanwhile here they are bearly noticeable in the next room due to retarded lightning.

I just mentioned that I'm going to read patch notes though. Do you understand that a question can be tongue in cheek?

I have never seen bigger ironsights than in this game

Why do you feel the need to tell people you're going to read something? Why can't you just read it?
And asking a rhetorical "tongue-in-cheek" question that puts all of its weight onto that you just haven't read something isn't very amusing desu.
3/10 try harder next time.

yes

Has anybody understood how a completely invisible trap that can only be countered by IQ is going to "slow" down the meta.

defenders just need better intel that isn't just Valk.
If there was a good way to buff stock cameras without relying on RNG then it'd probably be a good step in the right direction.
And 3 armors being shit doesn't help the defenders either, although the "acogs on 3 armors only" rule going forwards is a step in the right direction. Hopefully that means we get Russian acogs on more than just one operator some day soon.

>got the black Ice Skin for it in S1
>lol we said exclusive but really we meant we'll hand out black ice skins like candy, fuck you for playing the game since release lol

I'm gonna call it now and say that they're going to end up being more visible than people seem to think, and if it's not, they'll be nerfed in the mid-season reinforcements to be at least as visible as Echo's drone.

>when you meme the last enemy from the objective room with a regular barricade while they were busy killing your teammate with 15 seconds left on the clock and you blow them away through it as they desperately try to break it down

youtube.com/watch?v=xOsY6KFEHTY&feature=youtu.be&t=1m51s

You forgot its ubisoft.

It is not yet time to remove "you have been spotted"
We can take the safety wheels off now

>entire enemy team is ping abusers, have 3 ping abusing Ruskies for teammates.
They were surpisingly cool. Doesn't change the fact I'm still pissed off because they're ping abusers.

pinging should never be free intel. Letting people know that an enemy knows EXACTLY where they are in any given moment is much better balance than it would be otherwise.

I'm glad I started playing this game after august 7th

we'll have to wait and see how it actually looks in game, rather than relying on one single, isolated example.

Make half of the cameras immune to bullets

>last game before bed
>get so focused in game
>become an ultimate killing machine
>next game will probably return with no sense whatsoever
for once I knew what it felt like to carry a game

>tfw just had a wonderful evening of ping abusing
giving up and becoming part of the problem feels fucking great

>Be Blitz
>Spot an enemy, he sees me
>Goes apeshit shooting a whole mag at shield
>He then stands still and aims at my head waiting for me to ads
>I do it anyway and headshot him
Most satisfying operator

I disabled lens effect long ago and never had shit like on the left

>immune to bullets
no

I was merely making conversation. I haven't followed the game in a while. I saw a fairly drastic change. I made a comment, and it made me want to find out more.

Why is it THAT problematic that I asked an innocuous tongue in cheeck question, and even explicitly said that I was going to read the patch notes, mostly because of a comment that stuck out to me.

Why did you decide all on your own that I'm just begging to be spoonfed? Were you looking for an opportunity to police the thread from cancerous behavior? I get that you can't just ignore everything, but given what was originally stated, you literally could have.

Jesus this conversation is retarded.

DEFENDERS STOP RUNNING AROUND I CANT HEAR THE ENEMY FOOTSTEPS REEE

you havent played many games then

Is there anything worse than a player that feeds the enemy team info? It's even more petty than just a straight up TK because it's not like they aren't going to use that info. Fuck I'm mad.

The fuck's the point of removing ACOGs for defenders? They're at a disadvantage already.

Bravo ubisoft. bravo

ela looks like a 40year old tranny

That isn't remotely true. She has the facial structure of an early 00's emo.

Must be related to the Bogdanoffs.

got a pack at 2% boys, I've reached the peak of accomplishment

On that topic, I'd love to see irons and sights be more around Insurgency/Payday 2 levels. The spacing between your "eyes" and the sights in those games is comfy as fuck.

I got my first legit pack after the free one after just one game.

Now I average about 40-65% so I guess it evened out.

*cluster charge going live
*tsub *tsub *tsub *tsub

>peak of accomplishment
>taking responsibility for something that's out of your control

#bringbackinvaderzim

sounds like someone's jealous that they're not in the 2% club

What ever happened with that teaser, anyway? Have they said anything else?

>The lord can properly gaze upon us all

That joke is always going to pop up innit?

Unless it's a gay meme I've never seen, that misspells "aggressively".

Would it be a good improvement if a proper bore axis was modeled in the game?

I'd wager it's a typo that'd be parlayed into a meme if the creator was challenged on it.

Or they just didn't care.

Are my eyes shit or is this game really dark and messy
I swear all operators just blend in with the walls in oregon

the IQ needs to be changed to "why is there so much foot fetish porn of me?"

You're hardly the only one.

that does not change it looks fucking horrible and whoever thought it should be implemented into the in-game model should be shot

How many games do you lose to average a pack at 40-65%. On average I get one at 15-25% (100% casual winrate doe)

Hahahaha, man, there is nothing more disheartening than seeing a plus-50% roll fail 5 times.

I lose, yeah, but I have never been a lucky man.

it looks fine, your eyes are just shit mate.

...

Anyone feel like the more alpha packs you get the shittier the loot is? I've gotten like 25 in the last 2 days from just lucking out and the last 15+ have all been whites while everyone before was purple or gold with one blue.

My first batch of packs after they introduced them were all blues and legendary. After that, it's been shitty commons.

>Maps getting removed from ranked rotation
>Maps will be permanently removed from casual
>New maps only to casual
>ACOG removed from some defenders
>Defenders can now better see outside
>Attackers can now better see inside from outside
>Barbed wire easier to run over
>More magazines
Ubisoft, ladies and gentlemen

The acog will really change the meta, I mean there is no fov slider in this game i could just use. Well done ubisoft.

nah she cute

Fov 74 or 65?

90

t. moron

will the black ice skins still be in the loot pool in alpha packs when the new season starts?

>let me limit my side vision in favour of making my eyes bleed

90 or get the fuck out.

depends on aspect ratio, 16:9 use 75 for 90deg horizontal, 16:10 use 80 for 90deg horizontal.

fish eyed retard

>he doesn't know

Anything under 90 gives me motion sickness. So that is why i used 90 and the acog.

Enjoy your ayyy lmao vision
Ps. It is vertical fov and not horizontal

Calling it now, Ubi is removing maps to make room for a surprise Poland map mid-season to try and gain everyone's affection back.

Is your math correct?
65 should be 90 for 16:10

>tech illiterate retard uses ingame 90 because "pc master race xD"
>doesnt actually know siege uses vertical fov and hes actually playing at 122 degrees horizontal fov
the extreme fish eye should be enough of an indication that something isnt right, but you would rather cling to the numerical value because thats what some youtuber told you is best.

i think you might be using the bfbc2 calculator to get that result which is outdated for awhile now but no one fixed it.
BF4 has a slider thats shows both vertical and horizontal ingame thats correct for siege aswell.
74 is 90 at 16:9
80 is 90 at 16:10

They don't physically remove maps yet, so it doesn't make much sense
