They really need to start making more Medium skins than the FAMAS, because I've got like 50 of them for all different sponsors because of sponsorships and circuits and all the other shit

it's all famas and fcar

AK needs some love

>>2132960
AK needs some love in general. Is there any point in using it anymore when the P90 exists

>>2132977
AK has better range and better damage falloff
It just needs 4 bullets back at the very least

>>2132989
Yeah but at that point, it runs into the issue of being outclassed by the FCAR, with the distance being enough that the smaller mag size isn't as much of an issue. I guess the AKM might be able to be considered alright in the sense of being a jack-of-all-trades, but I dunno. I think it could use just a little something, like just a fractionally tightened up recoil pattern now that it's got much stiffer competition that's uber accurate in their respective ranges.

>is there any point in using the P90
It's extremely accurate and has a slight but noticeable edge over the rifles in terms of TTK and kills-per-mag. The range is limiting, but that's easily played around on most maps, and the damage per bullet is already low enough that max falloff doesn't actually hurt it that much.

>>2133100
Medium needs to be able to play midrange since other classes can't and putting distance between your enemies is key. Even the shotguns have better max ranges. You also don't have the mobility of a light or the health of a heavy so going in with the peashooter isn't too beneficial.

The only time P90s are threatening is when they're stacking 2 or 3 of them. That's like a pocket minigun but other than that, I'd take any other rifle any day of the week

>>2133120
>Medium needs to be able to play midrange
Which they're still able to threaten with the P90
>Even the shotguns have better max ranges
Stopped reading there. Not gonna reply anymore to anyone that's gonna be disingenuous. Do whatever little dance you want in reply to this, I do no care.

>>2133129
The model has a min range of 20 meters and max of 30
Granted, the cerberus has the same ranges as the p90 but the cerb does better burst damage and has the fire mechanic

What i'm trying to say is that sustained damage isn't as convenient as high bust damage, regardless of range. It's the same reason why the M60 is completly unused these days. It has better TTK than the lewis, basically across the board, but it's akin to a damage over time weapon. I know neither are really used anymore, but even when they were, the lewis was the more popular choice.

is defib a must pick?

>>2133816
probably

>>2133816
Nope, but Medium has no interesting gear anyway.

The new map is insanely shit.
There's a single quarter where you can actually push cashouts and fight without everything coming down to pixel peeking the billion slanted roofs.

Also fuck this pattern recognition captcha bullshit.
>>2133816
Are you good and can easily take engagements against more than one person? No.
Are you against good opponents? Maybe.
My friend vehemently refuses to use it and it's cost us games but he's pretty solid so it's not the end of the world.

>>2133816
>Is a fast on the spot revive a must pick?
Its not if you're retarded. Just play heavy or light, they have more flexibility in what gadgets they can pick, with medium, you're throwing if you don't have defib and jump pad/zipline.

>>2133816
YES.

Do NOT listen to any fucking morons trying to tell you that you don't need defib as Medium if you can just "kill everyone". Clutch revives are some of the absolute the biggest gamewinners, and in The Finals you can regularly get 3rd partied at virtually anytime.

You motherfuckers whine about Lights being selfish, kill-hungry morons and then play Medium with no defib, say "Fuck your teammates" and then LARP as a Light with an AKM.

Stay off Med, you douchebags. The YouTuber you're parroting the whole "No defib" argument from is not helpful. Kill yourselves.

>>2133905
> My friend vehemently refuses to use it and it's cost us games
Why would you argue in favor of not bringing the defib by pointing out your friend who refuses to use it has cost you countless games? You're basically saying "Yeah, my friend doesn't bring it and I've lost a lot specifically because of him not bringing it, but he gets kills sometimes so it's worth it! Epic!!! XD"

>>2133816
Yes, disregard anyone who says otherwise, they are retarded
>but the revive sickness
not an issue as long as your body was brought to cover
>buh the half health
between healbeam making a comeback and the light's infuser, the revived player will be at full health before he can move

>>2133905
>My friend vehemently refuses to use it and it's cost us games but he's pretty solid so it's not the end of the world.
utterly deranged statement. Why doesn't he play light if he clearly only cares about kills?

>>2134072
>has cost you countless games?
Just like your inability to read has cost you countless opportunities IRL.
It's like saying your heavy player using his RPG to kill a light and not having it off cooldown for stalling the cashout cost countless games, there's matches where someone having X over Y or Z loses and or wins it.
Is defib strong? Yeah, absolutely. Is it mandatory? not really.
>>2134124
Because having multiple lights a match is inting far harder than someone not bringing a defib.
90% of the +1 random players you'll get in diamond matches are roller lights and they sure as fuck aren't going to swap just because you've already got one.

>>2134152
>It's like saying your heavy player using his RPG to kill a light and not having it off cooldown for stalling the cashout cost countless games,
There are plenty stall items. Heavy even has a spec for it and can bring C4. No other gadget can passively revive a teammate.
>Is it mandatory? not really.
Yeah actually, you're kinda throwing if you don't bring it and none of the medium's remaining gadgets are worth having 2 flex spots over it. The single flex spot is already always filled by goo, a nade or zipline.

> you'll get in diamond matches
you don't get to diamond without a defib, nice larp

>>2134165
>There are plenty stall items. Heavy even has a spec for it and can bring C4. No other gadget can passively revive a teammate.
That's fantastic, not what I argued though.
>you don't get to diamond without a defib, nice larp
Cope.

>>2134174
>Cope
>shows no proof
hmmk

see this is why I disregard anything that's said here, there are people that unironically vouch to not bring defibs.

>>2134152
...So you're still basically saying: "Yeah, my friend doesn't bring defib and I've lost a lot specifically because of him not bringing it, but he gets kills sometimes so it's worth it! Epic!!! XD".
9/10 times defib is absolutely necessary, but you're staking your entire argument on the 1 time you might not need it. As far as I'm concerned, you have no right to complain about people going triple Light, because according to your autistic logic there's been triple Light teams that have won games before, so that means triple Light is viable and there's no need to adhere to a meta team composition to directly increase your chances of winning. Why bother with anything meta like bringing defib or sticking to MMH or MHL when you can just bruteforce a single win by sticking to the non-meta after innumerable losing streaks?

Yeah that's exactly what I said minus "lost a lot" hehe x3
Just like plenty of other times I've lost games because I didn't have the right gadget equipped for that situation, which was totally not epic, dude.

It's as mandatory as picking the famas and demat. Best option, yeah. Must have? nah.

OK then, so you don't get all pissy about getting called out for being retarded, since of course, you are retarded. :)

>>2134152
why would you use the heavy as a metaphorical comparison against the med
heavy has multiple tools for destruction but med only has one tool to rez people.
If you're honestly trying to pretend that you can't see why people would get angry over someone willingly playing med without the only tool that can revive his teammates, you're an absolute faggot that needs to uninstall the game desu :33

>>2134219

This entire time I've been quoting your gay argument back at you, and you've been getting really angry about it, kek. Idk what to tell you bro, maybe just don't say really dumb shit next time?

>>2134225
>why would you use the heavy as a metaphorical comparison against the med
I'm wondering how the example keeps going over peoples heads. Autism? The point that was being made is not having the right gadget at the right time can lose a game, it wasn't supposed to be
>lol you don't need a defib you have an RPG!
I'm not pretending I don't see why they're mad, I'm saying it's not mandatory.
They can seethe about it all they want.
>>2134229
>This entire time I've been quoting your gay argument back at you
That's right! You've been quoting it back incorrectly because you whipped yourself into a fit.
You only just then had the direct, unaltered quote and responded to it without warping it into something I didn't say.

I seriously suggest attending remedial English education if you genuinely did it unintentionally.
>>2134223
A solid half of the map is completely unplayable if you don't 3 man gateway drop onto the roofs because there's no way to actually approach the points without losing most of your life from people head glitching on the slanted rooftops.
The dense urban area with apartment blocks and stores are pretty alright but anything to do with the traditional chinese architecture zones are a nightmare if you don't instantly take the highground.

>>2134247
I've gotten pretty lucky when approaching the traditional structures from the nearby under construction building where the path between them is quite short, the path from the building with all of the windows to the temple is quite a bit more difficult though.

>>2134247
Sure, bro. And I've quoted back your entire argument so """incorrectly""" that you've gotten superbly butthurt and went on hysterical and entirely unrelated, unfunny tangents/quips about Ben Shapiro, phoneposting, and risperidone.
Hold the L, retard

>>2134263
Also- I think I see now why you're so hysterical. Because you've been contradicting and arguing against yourself this whole time. Tell me, retard: if your point is "not having the right gadget at the right time can lose a game", how does any of that disprove what I've said about the defib being essential? You can't just say that, and then whine about the defib being considered mandatory.
You're a terminal fag and your shit's all fucked up, man.
Rest in piss

>>2134252
Even if you get to them you can't really do anything unless all of you drop on a dude because if someone's smart they'll pull the cash outs into the street/middle of the fortress and turn it into a shooting gallery with the ample cover they're given. Had a match against a ruby stack earlier that would drag the vault there every time because they knew it was like pulling teeth to push.
Very clear that they designed the map to look cool before playability came to mind.
>>2134263
No seriously; you type like a retard.
Google run on sentence. You shouldn't be using commas that heavily in your fanfics and you genuinely misrepresented what I typed several times because your addled brain misread it.
>>2134273
>how does any of that disprove what I've said about the defib being essential?
Simply having a defib doesn't win every game, bro. That's why it's not mandatory. You can't defib in every fight, and at higher MMR brackets fights end so quickly that you're not given the opportunity to use it which is why I presume an anon earlier said
>The YouTuber you're parroting the whole "No defib" argument from is not helpful.
which I presume is some popular player because he most likely said the same thing. As I said earlier it's the best gadget akin to the famas and de-mat, none of them are mandatory.
Seriously dude stop seething, my opinion is factually correct and it's okay to be wrong. I know binary thinking is an issue for you autistics which is why I asked if you took your pills.

Goo is a good counter to the out in the open, shame they keep nerfing it

The season was such a flop it didn’t even get chinks playing they are now asking arc raiders players to play 3 matches for an outfit LOL

>>2134465
I think it's time we be honest with ourselves:
Arc Raiders was basically destined for mainstream success in a way The Finals was just somehow never created for. While I'm still not quite sure as to why The Finals has never gained that level of vast, mainstream popularity (Steamcharts over the years pretty much shows The Finals being about as popular as Hunt: Showdown, which is another niche but popular FPS within it's in-group), it cannot be denied that Arc Raiders was uniquely created, tweaked, and engineered from it's very inception to be a AAA game with enormous appeal and outreach. I just don't know how Embark did it, bros. They perfectly captured lightning-in-a-bottle with the wrong (Or perhaps, right?) game...

>>2134475
Like, even right now in hindsight I cannot fathom how from day 1 Arc Raiders was an immediate smash hit. It just doesn't make sense!

>>2134481
I'll chime in and say the extraction genre has still be woefully underexplored, and while a lot of fatigue has settled in around it, there's also a large number of people that want to see it competently done. Arc Raiders stood to fill that gap pretty well by
1) Listening to people pretty well over the course of its betas
2) Releasing in full right off the bat, no early access that took almost a decade
3) The $40 pricetag hits the right balance of being a "full premium product" while being reasonable

And then of course people quickly piled into it further when it turned out the gameplay was far less one-note, kill-on-site interactions like other extraction game

Finals was always to sweaty and light stomping and high TTK games filter people

the new maps cool

>>2134819
I like it, although some of the objective spawns are weird. Like the cashbox that spawns in the water.

It kinda baffles me, but in hindsight, they kinda capitalized on the extraction shooter being too inaccessible to the average joe. Tarkov is too complex and cheater filled, wasn't on steam until a little while ago and can be too complex for people. Marauders is dead in the water, Arena Breakout is f2p so it's also probably p2w.
All they had to do was make an extraction shooter for normies and make the game run well and actually release, no early access shit.

Granted, I don't like Arc Raiders, I played the betas and found it a snooze fest, but the production value was never in doubt. Everything else kinda was.
If it were 20 bucks, I'd have even bought it, but 40? Ehh, can't see the value there.

atleast thats the impression i get from random clips on youtube. i guess the average experience is more like any other game.

Starfield will just be another cyberpunk where in another year or two people will see it as some gold standard for 2020s AAA rpg slop despite it still being crap to actually play

>>2135728
one of my steam friends who plays it says it's pretty relaxed

The Finals was thrown to the wolves as a minimum viable product to allow Embark more time to work on Arc Raiders. The lack of content at launch ultimately killed the game.

You suck
BUT
If you are a lower RS than your teammates (say they're Plat 2 and you're bronze)
the game will assume that you're playing from an alt account/boosting and place you in lobbies with high tier players. The losses are greater, which is why it's ill advised to do this.
You also NEVER play ranked in the first week or so of the new season, rank doesn't through seasons so everyone starts from scratch, even previous rubies

>>2136270
speaking of apex, they do one good thing with their ranked system which is loss protection. If your score drops enough that you're about to drop to a previous rank tier, the game will give you 2-3 chances before actually doing so. I mean, the same applies when ranking up, but overall it's not a bad system.

Any specific gamemodes/playstyles that are good at grinding sponsor fans?

>>2141763
Idk if it still applies, but using healbeam was the best way to earn fans fast. This was back in Season 4, no clue if it's different. As for gamemode, idk, just play what you like, gonna guess that TDM and H2H reward the least

>>2141763
Pointbreak, matches are long and you can wreck up a ton of kills/revives

>>2141288
>>2141645
Really? I'm getting the opposite. People are actually playing smarter and getting better. I thought it was really attacker sided at first, but now it seems even. I get wins on both sides often. It's just about changing your play style and knowing where your teammates are and communicating even if it's just through the comms wheel

>>2142000
I notice a lot of the time defenders seem to intentionally neglect one or two points to not spread themselves too thin, just ignoring it if someone plants.

>>2143595
Yeah this is smart, you really have to pick your battles. It depends on the map but for sys$horizon for example, attackers spawn much closer to A than the defenders do
To the point it's almost not worth it for defenders to even contest it since attackers will just swarm it and get it every time at the start of the game, so it's better to just let them have it and focus on B and C.
Same thing with Bernal, attackers spawn so close to C.
It's important to learn when it's worth fighting for a point and when to just let them have it and retreat to defend the others. And it's important to communicate that to your teammates so you don't have someone just run into a 1v6 and die immediately.

Hammer continues to be the most fun(-niest) weapon in the game.

How do you even win as the attacker in a situation like this?

Turret needs a buff ASAP, even in pointbreak it's dogshit since a single smoke canister can counter it

>>2146527
Kill your opponents
>>2146529
I wouldn't be against them making the interaction between frags and smokes guaranteed, which could solve a lot of the issues. Rather than the current system where it basically just pushes the smoke object around if the explosion isn't close/strong enough.

I'll do you one better. We had 40+ coins before we got to this last point. With the power of anti grav + winch and orb they were able to drag it to the edge making this a perfect kill box. Once they got it into position their team switched to mostly heavies with MGL32s and lights with snipers. Because of the goo nerf and glitch nades there wasn't much anyone could do.

>>2146527
With that few respawns you straight up just don't. Defenders have full control over both of them simultaneously, you're just fucked.

>>2137077
>give you 2-3 chances before actually doing so
That's the exact opposite of a good system.

>>2143674
Its not smart. If they're taking a point and you're doing nothing but sitting on an empty point you're just wasting your time.

>Sniper keeps headshotting me
>Look at scoreboard
>Console
every time.

>>2147672
>You really have to pick your battles
This implies there's times to go and stop them and times to let them have it. If it's literally all of them on 1 point and there's nobody who's going to go with you, then fighting them is a bad idea because you're just going to die. It's better to regroup with your team and set up a defense on the remaining objectives.
If it's 1 guy who snuck around and captured it by himself then yeah go kill him and take it back.
The current meta is turning into swarming. Someone will call a point at the start and everyone runs towards it. If all of your fellow defenders aren't also all going there then it becomes really hard to stop them

>>2147772
Problem is, its usually 1 or 2 people who go off to one point and just AFK there, dooming their team to losing everywhere else.

>>2147790
Yeah, in 8v8 it feels like there's less opportunities to carry your team. You really need everyone firing on all cylinders if the opposing team is good. Especially as defenders because you can just get rolled over and if they end up with 40+ revives then you're not winning.

My bullshit situations reduced dramatically when I disable crossplay.

>>2148466
WHAT THE FUCK
That is disgusting. I'm turning off crossplay from now on. Why do console-shitters always have to ruin everything? Whatever happened to the wonderful days when consoles had their own popular, console-exclusive multiplayer games and never ended up crossplaying with those of us on PC?
Why can't we go back to that?

>>2149396
I think it's mostly selection bias. You'll notice that there are always less console players in a lobby than pc players. This is partially due to the game being more popular on pc, but I suspect it's also a result of average console players turning off crossplay. At the end of the day, pc still stomps console easily regardless of the aim assist handicaps console gets; nearly every competitive player uses pc. Console players may seem OP as a group because the only ones who choose to crossplay with pc are likely in the top quartile of skill.

>>2148125

>>2149405
>but I suspect it's also a result of average console players turning off crossplay.
I thought the original issue was they had no choice but to have cross play turned on. Did that get fixed in one of the seasons?

>>2149437
I believe it's gone back and forth, but console players have been able to turn off crossplay for awhile now.

MGL does not need a rework, it's a super fun skill cannon and the game would be super shit if you regularly met more than one in a single lobby.

>>2151394
Yeah, the MGL32 is a beast. If it needs anything, it's not a rework, it's just for the grenade to explode if it makes direct contact with a contestant. Otherwise, there's a lot of payoff to getting used to it. Being able to get damage while not in LOS is huge. Being able to deal damage with no falloff is huge. Being able to potentially mutli-hit contestants is huge. Being able to get some decent on-demand destruction is pretty alright.

The people asking for a rework are just goobers that should be playing Medium with the CL-40 if they want an easier to use GL that still hits pretty damn good.

Reminder that the lockbolt + healing emiter thing in point break isn't bannable as long as you don't pull it into your spawn. So just pulling it outside into the open is a very strong tactic.

>>2151482
go ahead

the game looks cool but I'm tired of being baited by shooters ALL being reduced to "how well can you point and click on the head of your enemy". Is this FPS any different?

>>2153611
Kinda, yeah. Like right now, the meta weapons aren't even the ones with the best TTK and kills-per-mag, as there's more than just being an aim god, and frankly being an aim god is pretty tough in this game anyways. There's a lot more to the design that pushes things towards teamplay and adapting your approach more than just jumping into an area and winning the aim duel, but that's a lotta words words words

>>2153710
This aligns with my experience as well. I've moved over to primarily playing this game after focusing on titanfall 2 for nine years. I was never that skilled in the realm of aiming, but both titanfall and finals allow me to do incredibly well despite that.

>>2153611
This game is more focused on controlling space than anything else.

>>2153611
Full Autos in the finals are by far the easiest thing to play but you could easily never touch them and be completely fine.
Lots of weapons are not about headshots at all.

>>2154435
Sledge and flame are ok, different playstyles but they can work. The rest just kinda suck.
funny how you didn't mention the MGL though

>>2154981
I'll never get gravcube for an mgl loadout. Hell, the gravcube in general.
gravcube is like the equivalent of stepping your toe, it's a nuisance at best

the real dealbreaker is no dome in any of them, I can get behind the goo since it's good but no dome is just insane

>>2154984
MGL is so garbage that i just forgot it existed.

>>2154976
That's my main loadout. The main idea is setting up one-way attacks that the enemy can't respond to (such as shooting through flame and antigrav) and staying on the move and being way too dangerous to for enemies to try to chase. This build dominates confined spaces.

Pyro allows me to deny vision especially against enemies on high ground; you can't kill dudes on high ground but if you pyro one side of the roof they're standing on and spam the other side, they will run for cover.

Pyro allows me to kill from out of sight; if I pyro one corner of a room then I can bounce grenades into the other corners, basically guaranteeing I get some hitmarkers. Also it lets me defend against enemies who are on a floor above; by pyroing once side of a ceiling hole and grenading the other, the enemy can't threaten us from up there. This is an excellent counter to any high ground cashout defense.

Antigrav lets me clear debris for easy shooting. Also, I can see enemies well enough to kill them with the MGL but they can't see me well enough to shoot back. It also makes seeing and dodging the grenades really hard. If you lift a cashout enemies go to the stairs and other chokepoints, you can murder them when they do that because it's a tight space. (nobody shoots the antigrav while there are grenades raining on them) Like the pyro it lets me reduce the number of corners enemies might be hiding in. Also lets me reposition and take high ground quickly.

Goo is a free bounce platform for the grenades, and gooing the side of an entrance means the enemy can only move in one direction so where to shoot my grenades becomes obvious. It also lets me take high ground and hold it; enemies can't even see where the grenades are coming from if they're too close to an antigrav or pyro grenade.

I keep Spear or KS23 and C4 in reserve in case of too many melee enemies mostly. Spear/KS23, C4 Pyro Goo is a good generic loadout, nothing special.

>>2154986
NTA but gravcube is great at stalling because it can go through ceilings. You can wait under a cash out, see that someone is stealing them chuck it on the floor directly underneath it and it'll push them off of it.
You can also use it to slow them down from entering doorways like how a medium can use jump pad.
Also in power shift you can throw it underneath the platform and it will push everyone off and that alone can win you the game in overtime if your team is ahead.
It gives Heavy solo upwards mobility that they otherwise lack.

It's a pretty versatile gadget.

>>2155397
>You can wait under a cash out, see that someone is stealing them chuck it on the floor directly underneath it and it'll push them off of it.
That seems liable to just have the demat problem of moving them in tandem unless you space it perfectly. I find it better to just preemptively place it when I expect them to start pushing in. They then either have to waste time and give away their position to break it, or they have to float up which just never ever actually works.

Using it for Heavy mobility is also kinda whatever. A lot of instances, you can just use Goonades to achieve the same results. I only ever liked it more for mobility in cases where you wanna post up outside of a window or otherwise be lifted up to an area where you want more side to side movement while you're up there, as Goo is better for ascension but only gives you a small perch.

Lus me Shak, undefeated since release. Literally the only gun that was never nerfed, it's perfect. I'd love the SA12 more if I had better aim and FPS, that gun relies hard on having both.

The strat for Point Break on Monaco defense is just to rush B, break the ceiling and pull the cash out outside. Defenders get such a great vantage point with all the high ground from the chapel, and attackers HAVE to approach out in the open. It makes it very fucking hard for them to ever steal it if your team is just watching it, with the occasional suicide to winch them off of it if they try to some shield their way in. Then you just run out their revives.
Other maps can do this but it's the best on this one.

Cool strat, will try it next year if it won't be patched

>>2158017
There's nothing to be patched. Moving the cash out is an intended gameplay mechanic. They already patched being able to move it out of bounds.

>>2156467
My build can pull off like 30x more tactics in any given situation than yours, and can synergize with a wide variety of allied builds. Meanwhile you're playing the same way every match with that build and if someone knows what to do about that you're screwed. (or more likely they just play whatever they want as normal to beat you instead of having to worry about anything you do)
Even swapping out Dome for Goo in your setup opens up a world of possibilities.

>>2158842
He says, while using the MGL, the gun that folds under the most miniscule pressure and provides basically zero use outside of like 3 use case scenarios. I have a lot more respect for flame users

>>2159013
Yeah the gun folds under the most miniscule pressure, that's why my kit is designed to fuck anyone who tries to pressure me by forcing them to move predictably or get caught in flame/gravity which lets me see their health bar and blow them up, and if they don't, they get rained on by grenades from out of sight.

>>2159051
I swear you must be playing in the baby retard lobbies because this shit doesn't happen in lobbies where the player has more than 2 hours ingame and knows that pressing the WASD keys lets him move around. Your KD is probably low but honestly, it's your W/L that worries me more. No way you can even pretend to be a credit to the team if you're running this shit

>>2159013
>>2159146
Come on anon. Do you really have nothing better to do other than to shitpost and stir the pot on /vm/?
It's not even noon

>>2159155
So? You're still a shitter

>>2159146
It's not baby retard lobbies man, it's fucking simple. An MGL user is a huge threat to any team because of how quickly it can destroy you if you misposition even a bit. This forces the enemy to go after me because they know they can't hide or play slow or my grenades will follow them whereever they go, and so the clear best way to build MGL is to maximize how dangerous it is for enemies to go after me, and funnel them to places where it's easy to blow them the fuck up.

The only problem MGLing at higher elos presents is the increased ubiquity of Dome Shield, which is a true counter... but that's when you pyro one side and when the shield drops the enemy will be in a predictable spot.

>>2159288
Is this what mental illness looks like? None of what you said is a problem against anyone, your weapon gets hard countered by standing on a high ledge or getting close to you, not to mention the billion ways to evade the slow and low damaging granades. Is this some kind of larp?

>>2159288
Also, as you said, it's countered by dome shield
the most picked gadget for heavy (second to the RPG)

>>2159428
I told you the solution to that but you'd rather play weapons that you don't have to think to use.

>>2159433
Yeah so that's a meta disadvantage but nobody ever talks about the meta when they call MGL bad.

>>2159441
>you'd rather play weapons that you don't have to think to use.
The MGL, even when applied to it's "best" as you describe it, brings absolutley minimal benefit to me or my team. It's a high "skill" ceiling weapon but for next to zero reward. In the time ir'd take someone to master the MGL, they could just master using an actual good gun that can help their team win instead of being the equivalent of a noisy mosquito. Seriously, it's on par with the dagger in terms of uselessness

>that's a meta disadvantage but nobody ever talks about the meta when they call MGL bad
????
The MGL is bad regardless of meta.

All of this is backed by the fact that nobody uses this trash tier weapon, even in casual games and the gun itself is on the chopping blovk for a rework. Why would they rework a gun if you claim it's so good?

>>2159499
It's certainly bad if used in the wrong hands, but if the other anons share positive results why argue against them using it?

>>2160327
Because their "positive results" are going 6/13 and losing the match. I dread to imagine their overall stats

>>2160347

>>2164420
Does exclusivity about a mode you don't even play get you that butthurt? I personally wouldn't like if someone gets a skin for a legacy gun.

>muh diamond AK to show off that I was in the OB
That's why you have the sticker :^)

Factually, the only people who have a right to complain are the closed beta players, since they don't have a sticker, only the charm that IIRC doesn't go up to diamond. They lose their diamond hammers they don't got nothin to properly show off with.

The V9S is strong but there are a trillion other guns that were even stronger to the point where the V9S was lacking in comparison. 93R ruled for 2 seasons. Embark's shitty balancing strategy is "never ever fucking touch up the class, nerf one and then buff another one into OP territory. Fuck you."

Bernal is like one of the worst ones, the highest building is like 2 stories, blow it down once and you're already in megarumble city and you can't really attack from any vantage point correctly, because they're all level. Don't even get me started on E site on SYSHorizon. Pull it out in the middle and it's near impossible to cap because it's so close to the defender spawn and you can't even flank them

>>2173110
Bernal really isn't that bad. There isn't as much verticality so it's not as easy to defend there as it is on Monaco.
Syshorizon is also mostly fine. It gets harder in the last phase, but the first two feel balanced other than defenders being able to pull B into the open in between those two big buildings. But if attackers let them do that then they deserve to lose.

The problem with Monaco is that B is just so easy to move outside by yourself and the cathedral is just way too strong. It's the first phase of the map too so attackers just don't get the chance to build momentum like with the other maps.

Funny how they promoted all of this esports garbage just for the game to decline even harder than before, all infested with cheaters, griefers and for some reason smurfs on fucking casual

>>2176427
Who would've guessed that promoting eSports for a game that has a mediocre, small, niche playerbase was a bad idea?

you can stragetically switch between sponsors for the XP reward and speedrun the battlepass btw

im nearly done already and only play 3 games a day

>>2178663
Well duh. It's not hard to ever complete the battle pass. A lot of people fall off midseason, come back, and then blast through all the challenges under a week with bonus XP active and still end up clearing through to the Bonus Pages.

Speaking of which, man the bonus pages are disappointing this season. Bonus Page items should never be feminine. Can't ever use them on my contestants as a result, whereas female contestants can easily wear all the male cosmetic pieces just fine

>>2178676
why is there so many female cosmetics, it has to be trannies, actual biological women barely exist on this game

Stupid fucking cerebus medium on my team kept shooting my gas when I was trying to stall and we fucking lost the cash out. Apparently he didn't know it was my gas and why it was there. I hate this faggot.

Anyone reached diamond yet? Contemplating pushing to ruby and wanted to know how different it is from the hell that grinding diamond was.

What goes through the mind of a defib medium who defibs you when you're already being revived by another teammate? I LOVE to be revived with half health and all my shit on cool down thanks a lot shitter.

I hope they start caring more about animations than skins, especially since they're so adamant about not giving new skins to anything aside from the same few weapons for each class.

I don't think there will be any players left in the game to see season 10, Embark clearly doesn't give a shit about the finals anymore, they want to make good shit only for arc raiders now

>>2190638
Yes, anon. Just like how people like you were here a year and half ago, saying the Season 3 was so doomed that part of the OST was a coded message of them accepting its death. Just like you'll be here in another 6 months saying the game will surely be over this time.

That by itself isn't it. It's the fact that the rest of his outfit is also a mishmash of random milestone pieces. The STS and Santa Hat don't fit the color scheme or OSPUZE theme of the CB2 pants at all, but they effectively say (or used to in the case of the Santa Hat) "Season 1," so they get thrown in there.

Like this is just thrown together (would probably use a different red/white top the more I look at it), but if you used the Closed Beta Hat in an outfit like this, then it shows off to those that know/notice but otherwise fits a color scheme nicely.

The only thing I don't like about my fit are the shoes, but every shoe I own just doesn't feel right.
Other than that, my style is something I haven't changed since, idk, season 2 by now, I only grab bits and bobs every battlepass but I'm more intrested in weapon skins and animations honestly, I don't really care to play dressup, I have 2 main sets one being this one

>besides, what's wrong with showing off
There's nothing inherently wrong with showing off or using exclusive items. Like I have two CNS outfits, and I use this one more specifically because the Sponsor Jacket and CNS Facepaint are exclusives that required you to earn them in specific seasons (and to a lesser extent the Skill Issue 1.0 pants, but I use those more since it feels like it goes with the hacker theme of CNS).

As stated in the post, it's more about when it's just gaudy. When everything's just thrown on like this >>2191309 with clashing colors and what not, while shoving such items into basically every slot, it kinda goes from saying "this is exclusive stuff, check me out" to "I really really want/NEED you to know I have exclusive stuff" while showing nothing else off about your personality and style. Like it's rude to say, but the most charitable thing I'd think while seeing that is instead
>man's been playing for years and aint found a good fit yet
like you don't need to play "dressup" to put Black/Yellow with Black/Yellow, and god knows Embark loves giving out more and more Black/Yellow items with each season

I mean, that's just my opinion, but if you care about showing off, that's what I'd say people are actually seeing in the process.

>>2191313
>>2191309
Also, I always wear santa hats whenever they're avaliable, pretty much in any game that has them. All year round, doesn't matter if they don't fit, the hat stays ON

>>2191356
>All year round, doesn't matter if they don't fit, the hat stays ON
This part I can respect then

>>2191355
I'm sorry but this post reeks of elitism
>"no you MUST adhere to whatever arbitrary rule I have about clothing"
I don't remember there being a strict rule that says I need to perfectly match every fit I have to a theme or rhyme or reason, it's my virtual contestant and I'll dress him however I damn please. The stuff I wear is unique clothing that cannot be obtained anymore, some of it being exclusive in a way, but most of all, it's a fit I enjoy.
I enjoy wearing stuff i've earned, even in TF2, I wouldn't go around buying keys and shit, i'd be happy being a mostly stock soldier with a poo coloured party hat and an eagle i found in a random drop

besides
>I mean, that's just my opinion, but if you care about showing off, that's what I'd say people are actually seeing in the process.
how's that any different from you making a tailor made fit? You also wanna show off with stuff you bought or obtained or whatever, how is that any different from me? Just because my stuff is personal milestone? We all wanna be seen as we please, and frankly, I couldn't give a rat's ass how people see my skin because I sure as hell don't pay attention to the enemie's (except lights with female bodies and frilly outfits. You know what you are)

I don't tell you how to dress and you don't tell me, simple as that

>>2191363
to add, it's also not like it's a matter of loadout where having the right weapon/gadget comes with pros and cons, we're literally talking about accessories, which are the definition of personal taste.

We're talking about showing off exclusive items, let alone looking good in them. Of course it reeks of elitism. Why even bring it up.

>>2191373
You're the one who's trying to impose people show off a particular type of coherent style in clothing. Are you gonna get mad that people show off bundle fits that cost them 20 real life bucks too? Just because they wanna show off exclusive items that they had to drop dosh for?

This response shows you're just being disingenuos about the whole thing, especially when there even exist paid limited time bundles that are about the same thing I do with my exclusive items.

>>2191378
another addendum, most of the exclusive stuff are also just recolours of already existing clothes. The STS vest is just a recolor of another vest and same goes for the cb2 pants. It's something you notice if you care, otherwise, you don't and that's it. I like wearing my shit because I didn't pay for it and it suites my tastes too.

>particular type of coherent style in clothing
My dude, the entire point point is that you are NOT showing off a coherent style. I clearly have zero qualms with exclusives or paid items, nor with showing them off, as I've stated exactly as such while proving it in the thread. The whole point is that you should have a coherent style WHILE showing off, as otherwise the clashing colors and gaudy looks makes the showing off backfire
>This response shows you're just being disingenuos about the whole thing
Okay buddy, whatever you say. I'm sure it's completely good-faith of you to try to force the conversation to end while I was otherwise being civil up until this point. If you wanted that so bad, you could've just asked, but either way, this will be the last reply you'll get out of me now.

I don't think you understand what "forcing a coherent style" means, because you're clearly trying to enforce how someone should show off his exclusive shit. Please, do tell, oh expert tailor of the finals, please tell me how I should combine the fucking things I own so I appease your idea of style, so the mother ducking colours aren't mismatched and how I MUST look for everyone to think that I'm not showing off while I am! I didn't know looking gaudy and however I damn want in a videogame became a faux pas because some random said so! Why didn't you say before?! I've been using this fit for 3 years now! What will the people think of me!

>I'm sure it's completely good-faith of you to try to force the conversation to end while I was otherwise being civil up until this point

i guess if you actually play the game for a bit more, you'll learn that just stealing those eliminations cover almost half that combat score, and the rest would easy be the pittance damage to cover the spread * 15

But argue more about how grenade launcher is great. Bigger noobs the plebbiters
