First for sniper waifu

So, the Stim and Phase pilots are simulacrums, like Ash?

>>169292170
Yes. They are a consciousness placed in a full-body prosthetic.

So what was in that patch? Didn't even know it was happening.

nth for all prime titans are butt ugly. Cool executions are their only redeeming feature. Anyone who thought Legion and Northstar would look cool after Ion and Scorch was delusional. Ronin and Tone will be ugly as well. Search your feelings, you know it's true.

>ronin prime is coming last
>pulse execution never
What would they even do for awall execution? I'm thinking something with the big robot arm, but it needs to be for all classes so I don't fucking know

to be honest I think the only reason overwatch has a 'diverse' cast is in order to throw the scent off having at least 4 female player characters wearing skintight bodysuits

They had to have a model that shows all bodytypes can be high-speed low-drag effective combat units despite their BMI(which is just a number!).

>>169293150
stay away shes mine

>>169293272

I think moreso was that they were trying to make the pilots as distinquishable as possible, this is why the female/male models are almost the same on most pilot models.

They clearly wanted you to be able to easily tell what tactical a pilot is using at a glance, even when it's A-Wall/Cloak that are quite similar, they're still pretty easy to distinquish.

Do you think they need sleep? How often do they need a recharge? Or are they nuclear powered and they basically never need a recharge? Do you live forever if you're in this full body prosthetic? Is your aim perfect?

I wish I could put my mind in a FAST robot body, it would be so radical.

>>169293650
Not sure about the rest but they probably don't need sleep just some basic maintenance. They're not brains in jars, they're the memories, knowledge, and experience downloaded to a robot body.

Ash, for example, got fucked up pretty bad when she was a pilot so a lot of her memories were lost but they downloaded what they could.

>>169293838
What is the soul though? How do you think transfering your mind to the full body prostehtic would feel like? Would it be like going to sleep and then waking up in a new body, or would your consciousness as you know it shut down and be reborn in the new body? At that point would it still be you? Would you die in the process only to have a carbon copy of your mind be implanted into the robot body?

If memes are the DNA of the soul, what is the soul of DNA?

>>169293838
>thinking machines have souls just because they're made of organic molecules instead of inorganic molecules
You militia-men lose more braincells every Regeneration, i fucking swear.

>>169293650

Not to get too woo-woo but it might not even end up being 'you' judging by it, but by all practical means, it simply wouldn't matter to anyone, including you, either way.

They're pretty much recovered memories from pilots that couldn't afford to be lost due to their skill/experience etc. Pilots which are just 2good2lose.

>>169293990

Short answer is we don't know.
Long answer is we don't even know what consciousness is outside of nebulous definitions so, we don't know.

It'd be a cool alternative to just dying though, If we can simulate a human brain to a T I'd say that simulated brain is a human regardless of it's chassis.

>>169293990
Who knows. Theres probably some lag-time from your perception going from a brain to a computer so maybe its like coming-to from being unconscious, just a clear line from point A to B and no feeling of lost time unlike sleep.
We don't know what the process entails but if its just a download of info you wouldn't die. They'd just being making a new (You) and popping it into a robot. Your actual brain death is probably going to happen so the original (You) will die cause they only do this to pilots that got all fucked up. I don't get why they don't just make 80 billion copies of the best pilot ever but, again, the process isn't really explained so maybe they need a fresh brain to make a decent copy of.

No. Those buffs came in the January server patch.

Didn't they nerf devotion and hemlock?

>>169298847
Yes, both Devotion and Hemlock were nerfed. Devotion's damage tapers off at long range, and it has more recoil to fight. Hemlock can no longer kill you in a single burst to the body.

Day one impressions say the Devotion STILL isn't nerfed enough.

>>169299007
Firerate is king. Devotion will never be bad unless they increase the windup time substantially.

>>169299007
They "nerfed" them in the smae vein that they "nerfed" tone.

>Are the new faction leader intros be silent half the time?
It depends. I played a couple of rounds today with Vinson dynamics. So far, I've spotted 3 different intros: the clasic one, an alternate one and one where she just points with her hand towards the battlefield. In the alternate one, she stood up, put here hands together and said "Vinson Dynamics thanks you for your work,"

FROTHY JUST MADE A """MASTERING TONE"""" VIDEO REEEEEEEEEE

>>169299252
I haven't seen anything like that rip

>>169299109
The anti-tone shit is old. It's really not specifically better than the others; any time the enemy has half-decent players, their titans do fine against tone. Suck it up and learn to counter.

>>169299341
I'm pretty sure the new intros are just the beta intros.

>>169299324

So? It's basically his job at this point to report on the different aspects of the game. How's he going to do that by skipping one of the titans?

>>169299341
>silent pointing
I'll upload barker's new ones in a bit, I'm mobile now.

>>169299427
It's not that it's difficult to counter. It's that it's so fucking easy for shitters to use to farm the other shitters on my team. They can have no effort to score well.

I roast Tones on the daily, but those tones blast the shit out of /adv/ on my team every match.

>not better than the others

>>169299108
And that's not a bad thing. Devotion is still good, but so are a bunch of other guns now, and all of them are fully capable of killing enemy Pilots. Some are slightly stronger than others, but none of them are truly useless, like pre-buff Spitfire was.

lately all ive played is softball, cold war and epg. im looking to add a new weapon into my rotation. already tried the mastiff, but it just doesnt feel right. what would be a good weapon based on what ive been playing?

is the double take any fun? the gun looks cool, but i think ive read that its damage is inconsistent similar to the mastiff, since its actually 3 projectiles instead of 2. other than the doubletake, i dont have any ideas on what to level next.

>>169300398
The Double Take is basically a semi-auto Kraber. There's some finagling about how it uses three projectiles (two visible and one invisible in the middle), but don't worry about that so much. Just know that you're effectively trading the Kraber's one-hit-kills-anywhere behavior for semi-auto fire.

SMR maybe? I also like running with the Wingman Elite as if it was my primary.

>>169299863
Basically this, though I don't have the issue as much because I mostly play stacked, when I play solo I notice it's always one or two tones on the enemy teams whos players are absolute dogshit but since they have Tone they just wreck the other ADVs on my team who are either not in a titan yet or using anything other than tone.

The problem with Tone is that it's TOO EASY TO USE, not that it's "too strong". I'd say Ion and Scorch can be stronger than Tone when played correctly.

But yeah it's just annoying that [RDDT] iLoveDevotion blocks your teams path with his Tone and just shitfucks other shit players with zero effort.

>>169300538
i was gonna try that, but im total shit with anything that has a small hitbox. if its the same size/similar to the wingman elite hitbox, ill never be good with it. thanks for the suggestion though.
>>169300556
is it fun? i rememer some anon a few months ago doing mspaint drawings on how to get kills with ricochet(shooting the ground behind the pilot rather than leading your shot ahead of them).
mostly i just need something that my grenadier "skills" will transfer over a bit with. when i tried the mastiff, i was a total anchor and dragged the team down, barely getting any kills with it.

>>169301348

posted by jayfresh about the new mixtape and how to switch modes during queue:

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

We have tools in place to gather player data for this and the team will be watching player behavior. We’ll use that information along with community feedback to find best solutions for improving the experience. This is not the final version of Mixtape Matchmaking. This is our first step into our grand experiment. We need data and that means getting in out there for players to start banging on it.

Fortunately, we’ll be making many changes to Mixtape Matching on the server side that do not require going through cert so we won't need to do a full patch any time we want to make changes. These changes will be ongoing.

A quick tip: Are you having an issue with it searching too long for a match? Reminder that you can press Triangle or Y to skip to the next mode you have selected and search that.

Some feedback that would be helpful for us beyond the functionality of searching one mode at a time:

How do you feel about having to select or deselect modes?
What modes do you turn off?
What modes do you turn on?
What do you prefer? To find a match quick or have more variety?

what does triangle or Y translate to on PC?

This just reaffirms what was mentioned in the last thread: this is the first draft of the new matchmaker, and so now they're gathering data to start iterating on it. That said, I didn't know about that "push a button to skip to the next mode" feature. I don't know what that button is on PC.

>>169302307
I get that but they still made matchmaking worse than at launch with this update. Its frustrating, and hopefully they resolve it with the server sided changes soon. I just want mixtape matchmaking that searches everything at once like the original mixtape playlist did.

>>169302460
The original mixtape didn't search everything at once. Mixtape was its own queue separate from all the other modes. Once a bunch of people were matched together in that queue, it randomly selects a mode from the mixtape list and starts that game. The old Mixtape queue was no different that queueing for any individual mode: you will only be matched with people in that same playlist.

Old mixtape isn't as versatile as you think it was.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRFJhTS4Npc

This is exactly what we needed, more people knowing how to properly use Tone.

Fucking FrostyWomen!

>>169302460
I havent really looked into it, since Ive only played two games of attrition since update, but is that what it does?
That blows. I was under the impression it would fix some of the unplayed gamemodes since it would search for all at once.

>>169302605
It selected a mode and then periodically changed the mode it selected. Which is the most simplistic way to search everything at once. The new one sticks you in one mode and if the queue is dead you either manually change it or exit the queue, drop that mode from your mixtape, and requeue. Which makes it less likely than original mixtape for you to get something other than attrition.

I was really hoping they would just give the devotion a massive amount of recoil. It would have made for an enormously fun gun.
Hemlock is right where it should be.

So since the xbone stack last night we had a problem getting our normal 8 stack going since no one wants to play dumb fucking pvp. Is there still anyway to play skirmish at all in matchmaking?

Hemlock can no longer one shot without a head shot. Which is exactly where it should be; a headshot is a crit and should be dealing much more damage.
Hemlock is a poor close quarters weapon and you know it, since the hipfire is poor. It makes up for its range capabilities.
People dont like it for the same reason they dont like G2; because when youre jumping around the map like an idiot and not watching where you are youll get killed.

>reapers are worth the same as a pilot or a titan

but that really is part of it

the main reason to kill pilots isn't strictly points, but rather to deny the enemy from being able to farm points

>>169291664
>>169299124
Is this a JoJo reference

>>169306286
reapers are practically only killable in titans, and they are no weaklings. you will lose HP killing them unless you are sniping them from far off. even then you are focusing your attention on AI, giving enemy titans an advantage to get the drop on you

>>169306210
I don't know mang, Stalker and Reaper focus really brings in the bread.

>>169306286
reapers help but will not win you a game. titans and pilots are by far what will certainly win you a game.

>>169306408

I completely cede that to you, but efficient bot farming is what gets you a win when equally skilled players are up against each other.

That being said PVP and LTS are basically nonexistant, so free shrugs.

Notice that the only synth pilot given any characterization is Ash, who's not exactly stable, both being a fairly sadistic killer, and doesn't act like she's right in the head otherwise; she pretty much ignores Cooper until Blisk shouts her down, and is easily sidetracked in the middle of a job. It seems to me that there could be a flaw in the process, that may not always occur.

My guesses are that either it can enhance negative psychological traits or disorders, it can be a sort of rejection to the transfer, like a rejected organ but your mind rejecting a digitized existence, or it has a chance of simply corrupting some of the data as it's processed during the transfer. Or they could have shorter lifespans, before dementia starts to take place.

lel really? thats funny but also sad

>>169306469
Reaper kills will definitely give you a needed boost to win. They give you the same points as a pilot kill, and late in the match, there can be quite a few of them. If you are half decent with your titan, you can get an easy quick 10+ points killing them as you look for titans. I've stolen several games last-second by killing them.

>>169307561
I feel the same way. Honest to god I think TF2 is the best shooter since the old cods.......but hell I'll try playing some IW if it's free :3 just sucks so bad for Respawn that it happened literally right during livefire and 2XP. It's almost hilarious at this point.

There isn't a cod general in /vg/ or anything is there? Currently:

I saw it all too. Utterly disgusting.gif HiRez can go fuck themselves, you don't change something fundamental about the game to appeal to the people that are bad at your game. This is a bad example because I don't like the game and because it's dark souls, but its the only one that comes to mind: Dark Souls never got easier even when shitters complained about it being too hard for them.

But Tribes and Hirez? Yeah lets pander to the bad players.

Many games have been ruined by this mindset, and honestly despite all the flak Dota 2 gets, I actually appreciate how Icefrog has made absolutely no effort or intent to dumb down the game, in fact with patches some things have actually gotten more complex than before.

I wish more games took this approach to their game design, I understand devs want to catch players of all skill levels and retain as many as they can, but what is the point of making a game that is inherently unfun because of imposed limitations on the gameplay "You can be good but not too good". What is the purpose of such a thing? There is a difference between having improperly balanced elements in your game (Tone) and simply removing game mechanics or changing them dramatically because only a few players can use them (reload animation cancelling in Overwatch).
So many examples, it really makes me sad to see complexity and appreciation for skill and knowledge go the way of the dinosaur when it comes to videogames.

When was the last time we had a game like Quake that massively encouraged you to get good to win with strafe jumping and rocketjumping (and designing maps around it). Titanfall 2 and it's movement system comes to mind, but that's why we all love the game!

Sad times.

Market sales

A good but complex game can sell well, but shitters eventually migrate to something else if they get their asses kicked too much by good players

Look at rainbow six siege, it's community is largely built around people who know how to play the game, but it's servers are about as populated as ours, because when the dust settled and people who learned to play started using strategy, the braindead shitters who never learned how to play correctly started getting their asses handed to them, stopped playing and went somewhere else.

Stuff like Overwatch and For Honor has entry level gameplay as well as high level gameplay for those who can play well enough (Reload cancel, team stacking in overwatch and ability combos and feint/heavy in for honor) but the regular shitter can just pic an easy hero and spam bullshit, which to us is how tone is the shitters tool of destruction, instead in For Honor, they just spam Heavy attack and in overwatch, they choose easy as fuck champs to use like Junkrat

it's a shame, but a game can do as well as AAA EA blockbuster games do all the time in it's starting week, but if it proves too difficult for the mind of an average 16 year old COD loving faggot then they abandon the game to play something not so complex where they can do relatively OK, so games like Titanfall and Siege that require you to learn how to play correctly are usually low on players a few months after release because of this, the only workaround being gutting the game to make it easier for shitters to play, but that makes the game boring and stale.

WHERE IS THE FLEET?

>>169312314
I'd recommend an SMG, but those are pretty straightforward, so I'd suggest taking a crack at the sniper rifles.

>>169312314
Alternator

The one true underdog

>>169308485
>>169309454

They did it because they had created a meta where the only two parts of a team that mattered once the flag was off the stand were the flag runner and the defending sniper. They tried alternative ways to allow defenders to effectively chase (the boost pack for Pathfinder and Rage, for example), but ultimately they failed to find a way for defenders to build up enough speed to chase down and kill a capper who grabbed the flag at speed before he made it back to his base.

What they tried to do before implementing the speed cap was just buffing snipers, but that added a whole new host of problems because snipers don't *just* shoot flag carriers, and suddenly every open area became a no-man's land.

So then, having utterly given up on their game, they implemented the speed cap because they were absolutely out of ideas.

It was a stupid design decision, but they didn't do it because of shitters on the forums. They did it because Hi-Rez is a company incapable of meaningfully balancing a competitive game, and T:A was a wonderful mistake that they lucked into before utterly destroying.

The only way to phase shift ingame is to either have immense protection (a titan) or being entirely robotic. It might not be entirely possible to do this.

>>169318537
My simulacrum is a special prototype that had his dick saved along with his memories according to his will and organ donor restrictions.
Also his name is Mr.Roboto and he was the best pilot in pilot training and was the only pilot good enough to phase as a human. Now that he doesn't have a weak flesh body to hold him back his powers have only grown.

>amped weapons stacks quick reload?
what? all it does is reload your weapon and boost damage, thats it.

>>169319557
Using amped weapons will instantly reload your currently equipped weapon. And activating the boost is faster than reloading most weapons. It can serve as a quick reload if you want it to. If you stack up a bunch of amped weapon boosts, say you're running around in pilots v pilots without dying, you can use them to reload in a pinch.

it is fine
just dont use it in hipfire mode
it is pretty nice when you fire accurately

>>169327316
I never tested the difference between ADS and hipfire. I figured it mattered at distance, but is it also something to consider close?

G2 still needs a nerf. You can fire it way too quickly with no recoil at all. I'm okay with its rate of fire, as long as it has proportional accuracy loss like you would get when you fire a rifle at 6 rounds per second

>>169327316
Its perfectly fine to hipfire at close to average distance. And beyond that you should seek cover because the smr sucks shit at long range.

>>169327658
People can use macros on their kbms and elite controllers to have tapfire on full auto. They sound ridiculously weird. G2 and Alternator are favourites for people running macros.

>>169327608
most my shots seem to miss on hipfire

it takes just a few hits to get a kill. Just aim a bit further on moving enemies and you get the kill really fast

You can always try your chance on long range. I am not sure on damage output but it only takes like 2 rockets to get a kill. you never know if an enemy decides to stay still for 1-2 seconds

also, I use cloak on my build cause game started before I could customize it and it worked pretty well and I kept it that way. Give it a go if u want

and now, my work complete, i can finally try out the new mode. for anyone curious, the "smaller sunflares" mod should still work without the need for any changes since the files they modify haven't been changed with this patch.

Not him but no, Softball takes considerably less skill than the EPG, is way more spammable and has more ammo.
It's very easy to just spam all your Softball mag in the general direction of your opponent for a much easier kill than with the EPG.

EPG was 1 shot per second and the projectiles both travelled much slower AND had a ton less splash damage.

Softball in coliseum just ruins it.
EPG and Charge Rifle was like Quake (Rocket Launcher and Railgun), now it feels like ass with Sotball and Wingman Elite. The Wingman I don't have to much but fuck me the Softball absolutely ruins the game mode.

It went from a skill test of who could predict movement better with the EPG to who can spam better with the Softball.
Absolutely massive change that is UNWELCOME by literally everyone who plays the game mode.

I have no fucking clue what Respawn were thinking when they made this change.

>>169330485
just wrong, they're all worth it as of now.

>>169330916

Archer is worse than useless vs Ion, which is probably the 2nd most common Titan.

Charged Rifle is slow and awkward with mediocre dps.

That plasma shit is even slower and screams "HERE I AM" to anyone within 80 feet.

MGL isn't cartoonishly broken now, but I just can't find a reason to stop using it.

>>169330726
I can't hit fucking anything with the softball

>>169331107
this ion thing is pretty overrated

if you're forcing it to pay attention to you and waste energy then you're doing your job

>>169331245
Git gud because it's the easiest of all grenadier weapons to get kills with.

Seriously it's SO MUCH EASIER to use than the Cold War and EPG that it's insane how there aren't more people using it. You just have to get used to it, after like 15 minutes of playing with it you'll probably get it down.
3 Attrition matches and you'll be landing most of your softball shots.

>>169330685
>because why isn't it there to begin with
because they didnt design it to have one

>>169331107
you are only ever supposed to use archer on engaged titans. even an ion is less likely to time the shield correctly when they are also trying to balance offense and defense against an eneny titan. charge rifle is still pretty powerful and useful if you can consistently score crits, and it is easy to pop in and out of sight so you can be free from retaliation if you are sneaky. plasma ball is the same, don't peak the same window. shoot, and by the time a titan sees where it came from, you are on the other side of the map.

>>169331423
i feel the exact opposite. i use softball/cw/epg exclusively and i feel the softball is the hardest to use. imo in terms of reliability its: cold war>epg>softball.

>>169331359

Good job, you do zero damage and force it to pop a vortex for 4-5 seconds, which it may have been doing anyway.

>>169331532
> if you are sneaky

Same can be said of any anti-Titan weapon.

If you outplay the other guy, they're all viable.

You're probably using the wrong mindset with the Softball, you have to remember projectile time on it is much much faster than the EPG and Cold War, so you don't need to learn the lead as much as just the drop.
When you're close it's considerably easier to get kills with than the other grenadier weapons, especially since it's splash damage is much higher making it much more forgiving of close misses, it's also more spammable so even if you miss in the time it takes you to shoot the EPG and Cold War once you can shoot the Softball like 3 times.

>>169291484
How can Northstar get such a cool prime skill while Legion looks like shit ?

>>169332074
>You're probably using the wrong mindset with the Softball, you have to remember projectile time on it is much much faster than the EPG and Cold War,
cold war is the fastest projectile of all grenadier weapons. softball kinda sits in the middle. faster than the epg, but slower than the cw and smr.
dont mean to sound like an ass or anything, but the way you describe it is like the guy last thread. it sounds like you read about the weapon but actually have not played it for any considerable amount of time.
it has high splash damage, but it has a fuse giving enemies time to escape. that fuse is also time for enemies to destroy you, which in this game is easy when everyone has an SMG and the ttk is low.
the softball is more reliable if you aim your shots and go for sticks. spamming is too much of a gamble; your opponent has so many ways to get away from the grenade before it explodes, and if that happens then you just wasted time and ammo and probably got yourself killed.

>>169330726
y r u complaining about having access to an easier to use weapon? if you're that good with epg you'll destroy everyone else just as easy. quit getting salty over nubs scoring lucky kills on you. I haven't played it yet but it sounds fun.

I know, legion looks like a shitty concept car from the early 2000s

>>169332480
I have the Softball at G6 I think and the EPG at G12
I have zero issues using it vs slows in pub matches.

>>169332509
Because in Colisseum you can only use the Sotball now, it's a less fun weapon to play with and play against and takes less skill than the EPG.

>>169332165
Northstar's prime silhouette is pretty much the same. Bah they're just adding a smooth layer of armor on prime titans and calling it a day.

>>169332715
Softball is by far the easiest of all the grenadier weapons.

>>169332654
>I have zero issues using it vs slows in pub matches.
wait are we talking about the softball in general gameplay or in the coliseum?
i never said it was a bad weapon, it is good. youll definitely be able to blow up slows by spamming grenades, but if you encounter a good player, that strategy is not likely going to work(talking about regular gameplay here).
if youre talking about coliseum then i have no input. i have not played the new version since it looks retarded.

>>169332654
I dunnno man I think you're holding yourself back from having fun in a videogame getting mad about that stuff.

>>169332940
Both in regular gameplay and coliseum. In the new coliseum map where there's columns it's very easy to get softball kills. In general it just makes the game mode annoying.

All I'm trying to say is that Respawn ruined Coliseum by changing the EPG for the softball.

>>169333131
>ruined
>trying this hard to spoil things for other people.

>>169332715
did adding an arc to the mgl involve doing anything different than changing the crosshairs?

>>169333112
I'm not mad.

>>169333306
Me saying the game mode is ruined is spoiling things for other people? What the heck?

It's clear to me none of you play the coliseum so you don't know why I'm bothered by the change, literally every other person I know that plays coliseum also hates the change by the way.

>>169333454
"show_grenade_indicator" "1"
"grenade_arc_indicator_effect" "P_grenade_arc_proto"
"grenade_arc_impact_indicator_effect" "grenade_arc_impact_proto"
"grenade_arc_indicator_show_from_hip" "0"
and to save you some time, it only works with weapons that fire grenades apparently. i'm not sure what it is that makes it work properly on the thermite launcher, probably something deeper than i have access to.

>>169333306
He's right though? The mode's shit now.

>>169333619
wait, so is this adding the trajectories you normally need the perk for?

>We are currently looking into the issue reported of PS4 crashes at title screen. We'll be posting update here as we learn more.
t. respawn

>>169333804
yep; you could probably just throw them into the grenade base properties to have it always on if you wanted to, making them the second "but that's cheating" thing you can do that i know of so far

Haven't played in a little over a month, came back today to try Live Fire. I don't like the new mode so I tried some Attrition, has the matchmaking gotten worse? Seems like every game is dominated by one guy and the losing team doesn't even come close.

>>169333804
I think the perk only applies to your ordinance thrown

>>169330220
The Double Take is kind of similar to grenadier weapons in that it takes a long time to get competent with it. I spent many matches barely being able to hit the broadside of a barn and getting more melee kills than primary before getting into the swing of things.

i guess i just dont know how to use it. how do you move with it? from vantage point to vantage point? should i always be staying as far away from engagements as i can?
i know where to go and what to do with other weapons, but since the doubletake zooms in so much, i feel like i cant safely engage in anything near close combat.

I keep playing cause the game doesnt pretend its competitive and its just for fun. Competitive scene in this game is laughable though.

>>169339480
If you're dying to hitscan idiots so much, you're going too slow. It's nobody's fault but yours.

Tried using Scorch again. Still completely useless with it.

>>169339540

>>169339878
>Are we playing the same game?
Yes, but apparently you're just not a very good player.

>>169339943
Alright ill just get good so i can dodge the hitscan. You're right.

>>169339540
If two equal opponents are facing each other the hitscan will always win. Especially with how low the TTK is on them. Throw in amped weapons and you have a two tap.

>>169340128
This, the only reason projectile players can get away with so much is because 90% of the players in this game are just plain dogshit. The few times you find a remotely competent hitscan player you're basically forced to try real hard to outplay them to even have a chance to fight back with your grenadier weapons.

Luckily for all of us, those happen very very rarely.

>>169340128
If anyones interested in seeing this themselves just fucking play Livefire. Holy shit that mode is ruined already.

>>169339878
>>169340128

>>169340604
The game is built around hitscan. If you want a projectile game find something else and quit complaining.
Seriously, it would be warranted if most of the guns were projectile and the few hitscan were the meta gimmick guns, but thats not how it is. Over 75% of the primaries are hitscan.
Its like complaining about hitscan in a CoD game.
Even so, what your saying is a sack of bullshit. A direct hit with an EPG or Softball will easily kill a hitscan faster. SMR has one of the fastest DPS in the game.
Hit your shots, quit being bad, and quit acting like a baby.
