opfor has the defuser:

Just moved over to PC Seej

What sensitivity do you guys roll with?
Which AA setting looks best?

Tachanka complete rework/removal WHEN?

First for FUCKING ROASTIES IN BEANIES REEEEEE

2nd for tactical turbans

female ops

...

low.
35 vertical sens
25 horizontal

AA - the best is the highest settings, but most roll with none or TTA with some text setting tweaks.

The big, dumb male?

fuck off farah, your oc is shit neck yourself.

So she is some sort of hacker op right? Only way to justify that hairstyle.

UM THEY LOOK NOTHING ALIKE, JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE A HAT AND GLASSES DOESNT MEAN ANYTHING WAH DONT INSULT MY WAIFU VIRGIN >:(

She actually is, she can 'hack' a camera to get access to all other cameras.

So Lotte World Tower is the new korean map right? They leaked that it will be in Seoul and it fits the theme "Don't look down", because the tower has glass floors.

I'm trying to dislike this operator, so you better be lying because that would be kinda useful

Guys, I've been away for last two weeks, can you give me a quick rundown on all these operator leaks? Is Ela's sister meme officially confirmed?

Camera hacking is the worst idea outside of fucking ladders

So she's basically useless

...

Inside it.

N Seoul tower, retard. It says observation tower in the article

Only /r6g/ would come up with a fucking useless gadget idea like this

Obviously I'm lying, but based on the season't title we are getting a surveillance gadget of some kind.

those tactical titties aren't big enough

Literally straight from Xcom 2

...

No the daring girl who dyes her hair and isn't afraid of anything.

>attackers can rappel shoot the floor and make defenders fall

I'm placing my bets on the defenders being a Mute alternative like Hibana to Thermite since Mute is the only jammer in the game right now and the attacker to be some kind of 3 armor with a choice for a shield like Fuze since there are no other 3 armor non shield attackers

Except Lotte World Tower aka Seoul Sky is also considered an Observation Tower. Now don't you feel retarded?

>IT'S NOT OVER
>NOT YET

>stronk women with shield
>shield with pistol that has sight
that might be just progressive enough to work

>Defenders shoot out the floors underneath their own teammates for epin trolling
Not happening

>Glass walls

just breaking the glass ceilings :^)

No, she can hack any defending gadget to turn it to the attackers' side. Things like ADS, jammers, bandit batteries, kapkan traps, etc, and cameras of course. 3 charges though so make it count.

>buff IQ to make her viable
>introduce a strictly better OP
Sounds like Ubi alright

we have also yet to get a DLC attacker that is 3 armor

so a shield could very well be possible, even if they're probably not gonna get picked a lot

Women have been trying for years.

That doesn't seem like a bad idea, like a reverse Cav, that punishes roamers more.

and now they can, literally

Wow that's really deep and meaningful, the new map has glass ceilings meant to be broken just like Ubisoft is breaking the glass ceiling by representing women and minorities in positions of power. Bravo Ubisoft that's beautiful.

No, it sounds like /r6g/

kek

>Break glass ceiling
>Falling shards of glass kill the hostage

pottery

i think the point is no one (including r6g and reddit) can come up with good operator ideas without them being severely imbalanced or generally very stupid

HEY, coo-laid man Blitz is not stupid nor overpowered

Yeah he's just shit

actually sounds more likely to get him killed
but it would be fun

How about an operator with that magic wand camera thing that lets him peek around corners without deploying an easily noticed and destroyed drone?

>We’re also bringing you a new GROM Operative in the mix, known for their resilience and bravery.
>THEIR

That's it lads, the leak was true.

what leak

Tachanka works perfectly fine if you know the maps and your team doesn't fuck you over.
You find a good wall.
You place your machine gun.
You make a pee pee hole.
You kill whatever catches your eye.

This one?

I don't get it, was there ever any doubt we're getting another GROM?

Literally known since day 1

You mean this camera thing from SWAT 4?

It would work maybe, but knowing Ubi, the 'balance' / negative effect of it would be it'll have some weird glow to the end of the camera to notify the person on the other end of it that they're being watched.

plus it would make you just as vulnerable as pulse is with his heartbeat sensor.

Why the hell is doc a 3 armor? He would be a much better operator as a 3 speed defender with a shotgun and smg secondary

kys

Yeah that's the one.

In this context, "their" could refer to GROM as a whole, or they could be using "their" as a gender-neutral pronoun to avoid revealing the specific operator's gender.
In the later case, it could mean that they don't want people to know that GROM gets two female operators.

>mfw only glaz can shoot through the floor

A friendly reminder that we will never get a two males DLC because discrimination by gender is unacceptable.

>We will never get cool looking operators with sensible outfits and unit-appropriate guns again

>thinking we ever had appropriate weapons

For the most part the vanilla ops had appropriate weapons.

everybody gets an mp5

>vertical grip is pretty much mandatory on every weapon
>but it makes guns look super ugly
Truly the worst meme. Why didn't they make grips reskins of each other like sights? Literally who needs a 0.5 second faster ADS time in a game where you should be ADSed long before an enemy even appears on your screen?

The weapon attachment system sucks and is gay anyway. I'm seriously considering buying Tarkov just for the gun porn.

>only two DLC ops got masks
>they still release headgears with masks from time to time
>but never for DLC ops except for Buck and that one season pass exclusive Hibana

POST OPERATOR IDEAS THAT ARE THOUGHT OUT ENOUGH TO BE PROPERLY CRITICIZED

In the Red Crow reinforcements, there was this bug fixt:
FIXED – Players sometimes see a “Press F to enhance” prompt.
It got me thinking about a defender that could upgrade the gadgets of other operators. I posted it here a couple times before. I've listed all the possible interactions below and updated it for the currently released defenders.

Mute: Enhance deployed jammer radius
Smoke: Enhance the range of deployed toxic babes
Pulse: Passive range or scanning frequency bonus
Castle: Enhance the durability of reinforced barricades
Rook: Enhances the protection of the armor plates (would be tricky to do this before someone picks it up)
Doc: Passive stim healing bonus from 40 to 60
Bandit: Enhance damage of electrified gadgets (at least double)
Jager: Enhance the charges of the ADS from 2 to 3
Kapkan: Enhance deployed EDDs by making them lethal (originally I had wrote making the laser invisible)
Tachanka: Enhance deployed DP28 with a lower body shield
Frost: Enhance deployed welcome mats with a coat of spray paint matching the dominant colour of the texture it's set on
Valkyrie: Enhance deployed Black Eye cameras to disable the blue light when active
Caveira: Passive noise reduction on Silent Step, interrogation marks last twice as long
Echo: Enhance deployed Yokai drone to allow marking
Mira: Enhance deployed Black Mirror by armoring the canister, now taking two shots
Lesion: Enhance deployed Gu mines by increasing the rate at which poison damage is inflicted
Ela: Enhance deployed Grzmot mines by increasing the detonation range and effective range

Pulse, Doc, and Caveira are the only defenders without a deployable, so you would either press F on them or have it be passive. An operator like this would have limited upgrades, because with Lesion, Kapkan, Bandit, and Mute you have 20 deployable gadgets.

blitz busting through walls

i agree, pisses me off to no end every time they reveal another dlc op barefaced.

why does this game feel like a f2p game in certain aspects? The DLC operators and cosmetics are priced way over base operators and attachments, just like what you'd see in a f2p game

because ubisoft

>an operator that makes other operators overpowered and can't be countered
What a great idea

>why does this game feel like a f2p game
Because of f2p-tier development team

>vanilla ops had appropriate weapons
I don't think any of the vanilla ops actually use any of the guns they have in game

Lmao

>that feel when you double check whether you accidentally muted yourself because your team doesnt react to you telling them Fuze is raining down death upon them from piano

probably just have some really bad map sense

I'm lazy, so I never bothered to look into it, but it always baffles me that Ubisoft allegedly lets Siege run on a skeleton crew. It's one of their most played titles, the playerbase is still growing, and yet they need to resort to these F2P tactics like packs, outrageously priced items or characters, or the fucking abortion that "starter edition" is.

Just remind them we need less females and more blacks
>Instead we get a black woman with an afro

which I'm totally fine with when I just got some newbies on my team, good way to learn common calls like that
but someone at level 150 should know better, even if they're, I dont know, silver 3 or something.

Nice.

>two niggers in the game
>both useless
Sure we need more of them. A tall strong (not stronk) amazon woman fucking when?

I mean, I'm level 80 and 3/4 of it is from grinding THunt

>a black Korean
I don't know if Siege is popular in SK, but if Koreans found out about it, they would go berzerk.

a shield operator with a shotgun instead of a pistol. could be a lever action that they flip around terminator style, a super shotty or one of those revolvers that use shotgun rounds.

Who has more autistic rage the Poles or the Koreans?

>All these ops who still don't have any good masked cosmetics
>Twitch can only have the same silly balaclava in different colors, or that one silly blue fly mask
>Hibana has no face concealment aside from the weird season pass thing
>No helmet for Ying to match the massive armor plating
>Only face concealing cosmetic for Valkyrie is the stupid meme saw mask
>Nothing masked for Mira/Jackal, but at least they have helmets. Sorta.

>blood orchid is going to end and I won't have every BO outfit I wanted

Why are people obsessed with masks?

>Mira doesn't use her helmet visor
Always boggles me. Imagine how badass would she look with only her lips visible

Its not like they're removing them form the game

Masks are tacticool as fuck, user.

when will ubikek stop beating around and just give us Sheva?

you're objectively wrong

Most masks make you look like a fag paintballer.
