I got it for 20$ on PC during Black Friday sale. You can still find Uplay keys for 16$ and year 1/2 gold editions for 10 more bucks.
fuck overwatch
I think they should take away fuze shield and make him 2/2
They also should’ve made ela smg 30 rounds
50 rounds is insanely good
So far I think I played every operator but the German defenders, Capitão, Frost, Mira, Ela, Doc and Montagne. I know Bandit, Jäger, Mira, Ela and Doc are good to extremely good picks but I didn’t try them because I feel I don’t get how to use their gadgets effectively. Anyone can provide a basic insight on them and how you play them? I only know that Ela is a roamer and that Bandit/Jäger like to fuck around the map as well.
Ela is all rounded due to traps, but mainly roaming (not much of a reason to keep 3-speed users at obj). I’d imagine that placing 1-2 gadgets at objective entries is mandatory, while you use at least 1 for roaming or even near-entry spawn kill purposes. In the theme park stage for example, there is a one-line entry lane to 2f (has a ramp, “not” the one that puts you right at the mid-train area) that is perfect to deploy it, and you can just rush outside once it detonates and get 1 or more people at the very least.
Bandit Jager self-explanatory, mainly roamers. Jager is relatively easy, put some gadgets at sites where an enemy can’t initially see (while being close to the entry point) where grenades/smokes (or Fuze’s cluster charges, but he’s not as strong of a pick in most cases) and play the basic game from there. Bandit, however, has a few roles. In some maps where the objective is upstairs, you can deploy barbed wire + electric charge at the peak of upper stairways so drones can get destroyed. Bandit also plays a role in electrocuting Thermite/Hibana charges from “outside” infiltrators (garages usually), which may require listening/Mira’s gadget to react and deploy the gadget upon their breach placement (to prevent Thatcher from destroying the gadget preemptively)… in some cases, you can go autopilot and just spend a bit of time putting charge on one side, removing it, placing it to “another” side, removing it, and repeat.
Capitao is supposedly underwhelming to some people due to his weapon, but he’s decent. For one, with the buff in smoke effects, it incredibly makes his gadget a lot strong for that purpose. Him + Glaz (maybe mandatory Thermite/Hibana + Thatcher) for outside infiltration is really strong, since you can lock out some regions of entry from the Flame ammo gadget, and cover the user planting the defuser from sights by the smoke gadget. The character is a 3-speed also, so can make out to be a good rusher.
Frost is debatable for use, but can work. Can work okay in some cases with Bandit to electrify shield/barbed wire next to her trap for instant kill… or can also work with Cav for interrogation via communication. What I usually like to do for aligning the shield setup is to do a 1/4 second quick barricade on the door → quick release (you don’t put the barricade, instead you just align yourself), and move up slightly and plant the shield (and of course, the trap just behind it). Counters mindless roaming, and can also theoretically be used to cover your back from a good spot in defense (example, curvy stairways such as Skyscraper… the one where you can peak the outside from the bottom door while being at the stairs):
Spoiler
May post more stuff at another time : … shortening Mira and Doc parts:
Mira’s gadget can assist Bandit’s line of sight for gadget placements, and her gadget can be used for peak advantages that the opponent don’t have (as well as nitro charge detonation advantages)… but the team needs to know the setup (fortify one side of the wall, but leaving the one just on the side NOT fortified… helps to have a Jager cover special breach projectiles). Also, you cannot deploy a Mira gadget on a fortified wall from the back end (if someone fortified the wall AT THE HALLWAY, but you wanted to deploy the gadget AT THE FREEZER, it will not deploy at all since it only deploys on the side of the wall that it was fortified.)
Doc imo is meh, great for being one of the few users with an ACOG (at high light it might not make a difference), and… well can heal users who are hurt.
ur right i dont. playing cod
Who the fuck plays Call of Duty in 2017?
White Noise cannot come fast enough.
i do
The Siege School videos from VarsityGaming are really well written, easy to understand and enjoyable to watch. They are all relatively recent which means there won’t be many outdated informations or advices in there. It’s really great to clean up your knowledge of the game. I’m happy I got almost every correct answer to the quizzes so far.
its pathetic that this game has been out 2 years and theres no report function for toxic/tk
and when you say something about it on ubi forums the reply is “record the footage and submit a ticket”
the fuck?
Isn’t the function to report toxic players gonna come out with next patch? It was up on TTS at least.
yea it took them 2 years lol
it wont solve tk problems though
tk problems would be solved if they killed the reponsible player next round and suspend them if they leave 5 min within tking
in casuals of course
Lawl double post
I got my renown ready for the 3 ops
I will probably play zofia a lot
I don’t mind 2 speed and stun grenade launcher is pretty op
Another club challenge that gives you a charm. This time with the Canadians. Sigh.
Hopefully people will be too busy instalocking the new ops and will just let me play Buck and Frost.
I’m glad the other ones involve the Germans and the Polish sisters because I wanted to invest more time in those operators.
Also White Noise patch downloading right now. Hype
Zofia stun triggering through proximity is a bit op
Also the smokes discussion
new map is way too big
Zofia gun is really really strong
Dokke is pretty good
Vigil is a bit underwhelming on gadget side but his guns are good
Zofia gun with her gadget is definitely top tier
Especially with the concussion grenades triggering through proximity and not impact
What attachments do you use on the new operators’ guns? People said Dok/Vigil’s shotgun is OP but I find the SMG more effective and easier to use in most cases.
Also I got the Buck keychain. Man the Canadian weapons suck ass
