You're not supposed to hit ops as soon as you see them, it's used to stall as they push numb-nuts.
And no shit he's slow, you're not supposed to roam with him, he's a point defender.
Don't tell me you're that fuckboy that thinks he should be 3 speed...

How about they make his gadget more potent or flexible instead of fucking with his speed?
Yeah sure his mp5 could use buffs, but his gadget's designed around Echo essentially acting as a stationary turret controller. He needs to sit still to use his gadget anyways, and that's when he has the most powerful effect on the round. His speed doesn't need to be changed.

Except his turret does nothing but spooks the operators to safety. I see potential in him as an ambusher where he can hide in a room with his drone and quickly pop out while the enemy is stunned. That is impossible to do with his slow speed.
You are sort of agreeing with me here, because I said smg buff or speed increase. His gun is way too weak to take on an attacker with basically twice the dmg they do with his gun. If they buffed his smg, he would be somewhat good defender.

It provides intel, and in a perfect world he'd be a more flexible/stealthy version of Valk that has the drawbacks of needing to stay alive for full effect and needing to use voice callouts for good communication. Ability to stall pushes and disrupt hearing (which is the most important of Yokai's effects) are additional supplements to his kit, the sonic burst isn't the core of it.

I don't think intel is what ubi was going for. If it was also supposed to be what ubi wanted, the lack of a ping option says that ubi was not necessarily thinking of it being used for intel.
When the trailer came out for red crow, it said otherwise as it showed echo popping out right after he stunned someone.

At the end of the day, I think I see what he could potentially become and I really want it compared to what ubi is going for.

>>170367406
>the lack of a ping option says that ubi was not necessarily thinking of it being used for intel
I think that was for balance and playstyle diversity, not to shoehorn his role. (Also you have to assume that they made him a 3 armor consciously, and not "just because, lol")
Since his drone has stealth capabilities and additional utility, it was a decision made to force Echos to be more passive compared to a Valk or Pulse, and to make his playstyle more distinct. They even gave him a fancy comms headset so you can assume that has some relationship with his inability to spot, and soft-requirement of vocal communication to be effective.
His major weakness comes from, being a point defender and only having one drone to watch his flanks or immediate surroundings. The amount of flexibility with where you should put your drone is reduced since you need to defend yourself in the point unless your teammates have your back.
His burst is powerful, especially because of the animation cancel capabilities, but it mostly shines outside of bomb due to how it makes attackers super deaf, leaving them open to roamer ambushes.

At the end of the day I see him as an intel and coordination operator that fills a unique role. I don't want them to change him into another ambush op that focuses on getting kills, his passive playstyle is what makes him stand out and it'd be a waste of potential to just make him focused on independent killing power.
>>
>>170367830
no the "buff" is hot garbage, his recoil is astronomical and the whole turret gimmick is not useful in most situations. Just get rid of the tripod
>>
>>170368124
This. Give him the LMG as his only primary and a bipod to set up in certain spots if the player wants to.
>>
>>170368164
>>170368124
>>170368297
>>170368004
He could keep his current tripod if he could deploy and pick it up much, much faster, How stuck in place he is when using it is his number one weakness. Pushing his playstyle from a braindead "I sit one place ooga booga" into a constantly repositioning surprise/ambush Op would make him much stronger, and possibly fun to play.

Interesting, but how different would that be from standard machine guns already in the game?
>>170368162
Interesting theory, but I kind of find it hard that the "soft-requirement" for using Echo is a mic. Ubisoft should know that not all people have that requirement so I find it hard to believe that this was their idea.
The reason I believe is too overdesigned is because that you need intricate communication to be effective with him. How would that exactly translate into casual where people do not take it seriously with little communication? If you can't practice it in casual, how would u do in ranked?
>>
>>170368447

>>
>>170368635
cowabunga dude
>>
>>170368938
You shouldn't be designing operators for all level of play. He's already stronger at higher levels, where communication is generally higher, and Ubi has already been known to design around pro level play with Siege, so arguing that they didn't intend to give him that limitation doesn't really hold up. Making him simpler just because he's hard to play on a casual level just removes the finesse and fun for people that enjoy playing him at a higher level, like me. I enjoy being forced to use vocal communication, and more than anything if I'm playing ranked with pubs I prefer not having a spotting ability for my teammates to fuck over my one and only drone with. Letting teammates not look through or operate your drone forces him to want to stay alive, which like I said before is a limitation I think they should build around instead of abandoning.
He's not overdesigned by any means, he should honestly be given more depth somehow, since currently once his one and only drone is dead he's just a fatty with a mixed-quality gun selection.
If what you enjoy of him is ambushing people in mid range and roaming outside of the objective with him, there are other ops that can do that already, and better. They shouldn't redesign Echo to make him fit that role when Smoke and Valkyrie are already capable of that playstyle.

>>170368938
The point of a firearm bipod is that, by making a point of contact with an immovable surface, the gun is much more accurate and has much more managable recoil. His current tripod should help with this also, but it has large recoil for seemingly balance reason. Making it powerful, have high recoil when shoulder fired, and very little recoil on bipod (just like Red Orchestra), would make sense.

Shield could work either way, it's just the lack of mobility that's the killer. Tachanka's turret could have a Montagne-type shield, and it'd still be weaker than if he simply wasn't anchored in place while using his turret.

Not either of them, but having the shield would be fine since it'd give Tachanka a reason to put his turret in a more exposed area, and more options are always good when you're as weak as he is.

I agree, but it's important not to make anyone completely useless in, say, silver. Don't ever take anyone below that into account, though

That said, expecting players to have a mic for Echo isn't unreasonable at all. He would be better if he could mark, but at the end of the day it's just a fact that this game is MEANT to be played with a mic.

>I'm playing ranked with pubs I prefer not having a spotting ability for my teammates to fuck over my one and only drone with
Teammates can't look through it, though.

I think Echo would be a lot more viable in solo casual if they let teammates look through his drone and let him (but not his teammates) mark with it. I don't think either of these changes would reduce his skill ceiling.

>>170372805
That was when you could hard aim with a shield and INSTANTLY get full accuracy. They slowed it down a ton so players actually have a chance.


This is why I want shields to stay bad. As soon as they're good they ruin the game for everyone.

I figured you were implying that should be changed, which is part of what I'm disagreeing with.

I don't think they would either, but my point remains that they should increase his potency in other ways and use his current limitations as balancing factors for more power or flexibility over Valk.

The ADS accuracy delay only came months after the game's release. What gave the shields in beta their power was being able to ADS without exposing their head, only sticking out their arm in front of the shield's viewport.

I believe they may have also had 100% hipfire accuracy with a laser sight on the first shot, but I'm not sure if this was only in the alpha.

Yeah but half the playerbase is plebbit tier and can't deal with shields so it's kind of needed, I've learned that if you play your cards right with blitz it doesn't matter. It's as simple as not getting into long distance firefights and flashing as soon as possible but waiting for the right moment.
>>
>>170373685
That wasn't me, I just joined this conversation.

I agree that teammates shouldn't be able to spot through his drone, but I think it's a good idea to make him more viable in casual, and letting teammates look through it without spotting would help a great deal with that. People use Casual to practice for Ranked, and some people like me don't play Ranked at all.
Letting him (and only him) spot through the drone would also help a great deal and make him playable for people who don't have mics. Like I said, I don't think it's a huge deal that he practically requires a mic, but I think it would be a net benefit for the game to make him more viable without it, especially since there are challenges that require you to play either him or Hibana.

Letting him spot would be fine, letting teammates look through his drone wouldn't be as good but would help, and both would be ideal.

Capitao. Echo is a bit lackluster atm. I guess Capitao is too since he got his nades taken away, but he is still viable.
>>
>>170374929
Use the nova/bearing combo on Echo, it's more fun, but the MP5 sd has an acog so it's immeadiately better at holding tighter angles anyways, so it's fine to pick if you're in a bigger site/map too. I'd go for Echo personally, but they're both kind of in the "almost really good" territory right now.

Echo is just an aggressively mediocre op. He's really held back by his pointless heavy armor status, and the fact that his drone's stun is unreliable as hell if the enemy is moving at all.
His MP5 is a piece of shit too, but at least he has a pocket SMG better than it and a good shotgun, so that alone doesn't completely fuck him.
>>
>>170375103
>>170375194
Hmm, using echo as a makeshift smoke sounds interesting. Pick shotgun to make holes, use bering as primary and barbed wire to slow attackers. Not too sure if you are supposed to use the yokai like smokes beauties tho (to stop attackers push once the time is ending)
>>
>>170374929

Having a shit primary doesn't mean that much for Echo since the Bearing 9 is great, and apparently the Supernova is an upper tier shotgun. The only thing that sucks about him is Yokai's fragility, since a single bullet turns him into a glorified Recruit. It's a little dangerous now that IQ is actually getting picked now.
>>
>>170375551
Not really. All they do is disorientate your enemy and 9/10 times they will just run away safetly making u lose their position. Also "slowing attackers" who can 3 shot you does not sound too fun.

I've never seen anyone call deployable shield useless. It's plenty useful, especially on Echo since it gives him more places to drone safely on objective.

U dont like caveira m8? She thicc as fuck. What are you, gay?

>>170375873
Deployable shield? It's good for blocking doorways, especially if Kapkan or Frost puts a trap behind it, and you can use it to block lines of sight when you're camping in the objective.

She's B tier at best and easily baited.
>>
>>170375873
Any smart player will know if there is a deployable shield there is usually someone behind it.
>>
>>170376130
You can block lines of sight or give yourself cover in rooms that don't normally have much, like 1st floor bathroom on Consulate. If you place it in doorways it needs to be vaulted over.

>Its just a "theres a guy behind this" sign.
Except when there's no guy behind it and it just makes the other team paranoid.

It makes entering a room riskier since they have to commit to it instead of peeking a corner quickly and running out. Also blocks Twitch drones as a small extra. And more cover is always good.

That does make individual gun stats a lot less important, but it's still important since there are a lot of angles that you can kill people with but not have access to the head.

They are useless

>>170376053
They're not good for blocking doors

I /H A T E/ it when people put shields in doors, it's as annoying as Castle barricades. They stop fast rotation and fast peeking in and out of the objective and give the attackers chest high cover. Barbed wire slows down attackers and lets you know when an attacker is moving through it or trying to destroy it. A piece of barbed wire on the inside of a door with a Jager ADS beside it does the same thing as a shield in the door except it doesn't slow down defenders. Take it from someone with 1000 hours in this game, never put shields in doors, never even pick shields, barb or impact nades is preferable 100% of the time.
>>
>>170375551
>to stop attackers push once the time is ending
It's useful to delay pushes a little eariler on if they're being aggressive, but since it doesn't deal damage it doesn't deter pushes the same way Smoke does. If it's close to the end of the round they can still push through it without as much penalty.
It's more useful to delay pushes either into areas the Attackers will think are dangerous, and/or if they're entering an area with a lot of potential angles. The biggest benefit it has is that it renders attackers almost entirely deaf for its duration, leaving them open for ambushes from patient roamers you communicate with since anticipation of such becomes extremely hard with no hearing.

>>170376053
>>170375995
>>170375873
Shield is perfect for Echo especially, unless you know the site you're playing on is already going to have good cover, like a few spots on Skyscraper.

>>170376130
>>170376180
Barbed wire is normally better, but it all depends on the site, and honestly too many barbed wire and they start to lose their potency since you can frag or Ash big clusters of it at a time.
Shields are just underutilized, and if you pick it based on the site you're playing and mix it up, you can get some pretty good results.
If you're just slapping them in corners and sitting directly behind them you're using them wrong.

>>170376340
>Also blocks Twitch drones as a small extra
When Mira's in play this is especially useful too.

>>170376378
Generally, yeah fire rate and recoil are much more important. Only guns I really think have high DPS being potent in more situations are the Type-89 and C8

I should have said put it somewhere between the middle and the inside, if it's too far out then they can just safely melee it from cover. You still want a piece of it in the door frame.

When Caveira holds F next to an incapacitated enemy she can interrogate them. After the interrogation her entire team has wallhacks on the entire enemy team for several seconds.

Jackal's isn't straight wallhacks like Caveira, though. It just leaves a marker at your location once every 10 seconds.

Remember America's Army, where enough teamkills would put you in an ingame jail cell?

Let's do that. After enough TKs or friendly fire, you're forced to play several hours (incrementing higher for successive infractions) of sitting in a plain room, with button prompts or simple minigames coming up at random intervals to make sure you aren't AFK or botting. Until you play through your timeout, you can't access any other game mode, including local games or single-player terrorist hunt.

Yes, I'm often on the receiving end of them. Maybe this will make my team mates stop shooting me in the back while trying to "help" shoot my target, or looks twice before using explosives.

If you can shoot the downed team mate, you can shoot slightly over their back to kill Caveria.

You're blaming your teammates because you strafe into their line of fire, run blindly into their grenades, and sometimes through sheer RNG get hit by a Fuze puck through a drone hole.

>If you can shoot the downed team mate, you can shoot slightly over their back to kill Caveria.

>>
>>170392469
>If you can shoot the downed team mate, you can shoot slightly over their back to kill Caveira
Not in practice. I've killed teammates getting interrogated so many times because she grabs their wrist and pulls it close close to her stomach. You shoot someone in the wrist while they're downed and that's liable to kill them, it's fucking ridiculous.
Not to mention sometimes you have to wallbang to prevent an interrogation, and if you don't have outlines on (which you shouldn't) you probably won't be able to perfectly avoid a single bullet hitting your buddy.

What he's saying is that if you're teammate pipes up with either
>I'm being interrogated
Or
>Caveira Caveira Caveira!
And you and said teammate are separated by a destructible wall, then you can infer that by aiming slightly higher than your teammate and firing you can possibly clip or kill caveira.
What anon failed to realize was that sometimes a clean angle can't be made, like when you're looking at your teammate through the floor/ceiling.

It doesn't matter if you aim for Cav's center of mass, you can still clip your teammate's model since their limbs are being intertwined with Cav's.
You can aim for Caveira's center of mass all you want, accidents will still happen.

Besides, at the end of the day, a Halo 2 style forgive/punish system would 'fix' the issue of accidental teamkills.
>>
>>170393021
This doesn't stop you from hitting them with a stray bullet, and it also means a higher degree of risk that you'll miss because you're firing blind. Teamkilling is always better than letting an interrogation go through.
>>
>>170393392
Never thought about an odd angle, but aiming right above them is near-guarunteed to get her assuming you're at the same height. If it kills your teammate in the process, so be it, but directly killing your teammate only circumvents the issue. I'm not saying people don't panic and think irrationally (hell, I've done it as well) but it's still very easy, especially considering she's always right above your teammate.

As has been said, a 9x39 rifle. His gadget is the magnifier, not the rifle itself. There's no reason why he can't have an alternate primary that's still also intended to be used at fairly long ranges but not as gimped indoors as the SVU.

I don't play Glaz. What kind of disadvantage does he actually have indoors? His damage is significantly higher.
>>
>>170400423
Like shotguns, damage doesn't mean anything unless it'll down the enemy in one shot. The disadvantage of all DMRs is the fire rate being too slow against someone with a SMG.
>>
>>170400423
DMRs work indoors because they fire as fast as you click. The SVU is the exception because it has an artificially restricted rate of fire. You'll often die in a trade before you can fire twice, whilst any of the three other DMRs would have killed the target.
>>
>>170397796
May have dropped in the middle of the conversation but at such ranges, simply being able to kill people witha singe headshot and Glaz being a large target just means that jager can go out and shoot him easier than a glaz can, since jager will not get downed

>>170397808
The gun isn't the problem here, it's the gadget. Glaz's gadget is a magnifier. Big woop. All the other DMR operators have a far more useful gadget, the most notorious of the bunch being Blackbeard's rifle shield. Why bother using a plain Jane DMR when you can use one with a shield? Not to mention that the SR-25 has twice the mag capacity, allowing for better suppressive fire.
>But the SVU does almost 100 damage!
As we can see in >>170397796, this is only the case in extreme CQB, and if you're using a DMR in close quarters, you're gonna get quickly outpaced by a faster firing weapon (or a shotgun, which doesn't even need to be aimed).

I don't understand why people get kicked so early as last man standing. I watched those two players get trapped and killed (they didn't have mics) so I held back and thought about another route for at most, 10 seconds, while always moving and I got kicked with 1 minute to go vs 3 enemies. What is the logic behind it? They clearly weren't clanfags otherwise the first frost death would have warned the second guy, but I'm the last hope they have of winning the round and the fact I wasn't stupid enough to run blindly around a corner into a fucking trap is surely enough evidence to know I kind of know what I'm doing. It's fucking stupid, and I bet they lost that match because they played like run n gun CoD fags.
>>
>>170403925
I've one shot a 3 armor without Rook plates from the leftmost garage door to the top of garage stairs in Favelas, so in close enough range you can definitely one shot 3 armors, and I think they're simply guaranteed an injure if they're wearing Rook sweaters.
>>
>>170403925
What's the multiplier for 2/3 armor?
And how does Rook work? I've heard it's like having an extra point of armor but I'm not sure what "4 armor" would be like.

>Only the arms have had their multipliers removed.
That's good to know.

>>170404008
So at exactly 5m it does max damage?

>so definitely after they removed the multipliers.
According to >>170403925 there is still a leg multiplier, and if that didn't matter I don't know why the image would specify it.

Why is Echo the only character that has one preset defined playstyle, when other characters are far more versatile or not limited by arbitrary "LOL THIS IS HOW HE IS MEANT TO BE PLAYED"

Even Monty has two or three really well defined strategies with him. But any time someone brings up how Echo is shit, you guys all argue that you are in fact playing Echo wrong, and there is only really one true way to play as him... Lack of versatility isn't a feature. Having a gun that can only get headshot kills isn't a "good thing"

I'm tired of you Ubisoft Dickriders not allowing progress by feeding back to the dev team everything is good, please add more headgear to the game we love you!!!
>>
>>170404408
It's fantastic to have in tandem with Doc, and it's definitely saved my skin on a number of instances. General rule of thumb is that it increases the amount of damage you can take by 1 bullet, which is great when up against an enemy Glaz.
>>
Echo should be 2 speed to increase his versatility.
Same with kapkan.
>>
>>170404535
Is this true? First time I've heard this

I was under the belief that because it reduces overall damage, you are more likely to go into an incapacitation, since if more bullets are less likely to put you over the 120HP threshold since they don't do enough damage, you'll see a dramatic increase in downs over straight deaths.
>>
>>170404538
>I'm tired of you Ubisoft Dickriders not allowing progress by feeding back to the dev team everything is good, please add more headgear to the game we love you!!!

Fuck off.
>>
>>170405163
Its true if the last bullet you fire before they go DBNO doesnt make them go past -20hp. Then they will go DBNO and you can only kill them once the falling animation is over. However if they have like 1hp and your bullet does 22dmg, they die. At least as far as i know.

Leg multipliers are still 0.75 for each armor class.

Rook armor does a certain percentage of damage negation per armor class:
1 armor = 0.85
2 armor = 0.83
3 armor = 0.80

Also as you might already know, it guarantees you to be injured instead of killed unless you're hit in the head.

Right, but what about bodyshots?

>>170405163
>>170405352
Finding an exact source is harder than I thought. I found a Reddit thread from December where no one seems to have any clue how it works:
>It doesn't do anything to 1,2,3 armor/speed..nothing like that. It grants an extra 20 HP. Which is why headshot do 120 damage, because even with Rook armor, you still die one shot. It always grants an injured state, except for headshots. But that's it.

But that's objectively wrong. You can observe it yourself immediately. Every Operator receives less damage per bullet. Someone had a spreadsheet awhile back charting damage but I'll have to find it.

Yeah, I know, that's why I quoted him. He's so wrong it's hilarious. He thinks headshots deal 120 damage just in case you're wearing Rook armor and not because taking less than that won't kill you.

This became widely known a few months after release. I'm sure you'd be able to find out where they test it in that 'Siege Mythbusters' series on youtube.

You can also test this easily in a custom game with a friend. It's impossible to kill someone with rook armor without first injuring them unless it's a headshot.

>You're just arguing for the sake of argument faggot

Way to dismiss valid criticisms. Every other character has suggested styles of play lightly enforced via their equipment. Echo not only has hard design choices on very specific gameplay, but some of those design choices are even contradictory (slow speed + low damage and short range weaponry)

I'm trying to think of other Operators who are as very, very specifically enforced to play one very specific way, and I'm coming up with Tachanka. MAYBE Doc?

Someone above said Echo was over designed, and I agree. But anytime someone brings up criticisms the response is always

>sit on the objective
>tell your teammates to get kills

There are tons of criticisms about Echo, including the fact he's literally useless if you aren't using a microphone. But, any time discussion comes up, the retort is

Fucking give up dude. Echo isn't designed for poor coordination, and his weaknesses aren't related to him not being good enough at roaming or being a one-man-band.
If you want intel+movement and killing power, you play Valk or Pulse, you don't tweak Echo to bleed into that role. It's redundant and it's bad design. Echo's limitations are fine, he just needs more potency within those limitations to complement that him NOT being able to do things actually makes him more interesting.
But I don't know, I've only argued that fucking five times in the last 4 threads.

>>170407926
Valk isn't OP, she doesn't fucking squash Attacker's winrates. She's picked because theirs no competition for her potency of intel, which Echo having 2 drones with his current limitations would create.
>>
memes aside, they really need to nerf rook armor. there is literally no reason to ever not use him. maybe make it so that taking an armour pack increases your armor rating by one but decreases you speed rating by one.

there is literally no downside to his gadget. at least with other ops like frost or jager they can be destroyed but once armor is taken it's practically a straight upgrade. it's honestly broken as fuck.

>>170408740
>Echo isn't designed for poor coordination

See this is where you are 100% fucked. Everything in this game is designed around limitations on communication. The game has all these redundancies in place, like marking targets, manual pings, automatically identifying enemies and displaying them above

If you want to do an experiment to prove this, you can literally play this game on casual and even mid level ranked, with no microphones at all. Period. As long as everyone kind of understands and KNOWS their role, you can use the tools in the game to supplement the lack of a microphone. It sucks ass, but it was clear Casual gameplay and accessibility was one of the core pillars of this games design.

So having a character whose ability, from a design standpoint, pretty much requires MLG tier communication with a mandatory microphone, goes against some of the core design philosophies of the game.

When you start breaking into his actual other design traits, he breaks down. He was poorly thought through. He could use improvements, he needs improvements, but he also needs flexibility, because he's one of the only characters in the game with such a rigid, inflexible playstyle.

Even in optimal circumstances where all that communication is in place, in the invitational he had... what? Sub 20% pick rate? Castle was picked more than him??? CASTLE?

To try and argue he's perfect or just needs to be slightly more optimized is the same shit arguments we saw with Blackbeard for months when he was roaming around shitting up the game. It's just this time the character isn't game breaking, he's just kind of shit.

There isn't supposed to be "downsides" to gadgets. The downside is not picking another operator. The downside is the potential counters.

If you choose Rook over Jager, and Fuze assfucks the objective room, that's the downside.

Are you that stupid that you haven't seen me argue that he needs buff this entire time?
I'm the fucker saying
>2 drones
>both can be active at the same time
>2 bursts per drone
>longer bursts cooldown to compensate

I just completely disagree that he "needs" spotting or teammate viewing to be viable, and if anything those limitations are what make him interesting to play compared to Valk's "set it and forget it, let your teammates that die first call out and ping for you" playstyle, and him being a mobile turret controller that sits either on site or in a concealed, coverable area, would be much more interesting than just removing the communication skill floor by letting his dipshit teammates in casual spot on his drone that's supposed to be stealthy.

If you read any of the shit you butted into you would know half of that by now though, so how about you read the (you) train before you start arguing with the beginning of a 7 hour dead conversation?

ADS block 2 grenades or pucks. A single fuze charge deploys 5 grenades. It takes 3 ADS in a single room to negate a single fuze charge. Fuze has 3 charges total.

If anything Jager is Countered by Fuze, since Fuze's charges, in the grand scheme of things, are a relativley cheap way to expend the Magpies.
Mitigation is closer to what Jager does, but the amount of time you buy completely depends on where the pucks want to bounce, so their relationship is mostly against Jager's favor.

all of their gadgets can be destroyed/countered in some way. bandits batteries can be shock droned, shot , EMP'd etc. with rook all you can do is "shoot more". fucking amazing what a counter.

also as far as drawbacks go looks at hibana and thermite. while thermite may make bigger holes quicker, he has to get close. hibana on the other hand can have a longer range, but it takes more time (and makes smaller holes). there's is no drawback/weakness/counter to it in any other way (unless you want to be a moron and say put more bullet sin them).

>>170409526
>There isn't supposed to be "downsides" to gadgets.

i didn't think it was possible to be this dumb. 99% of gadgets have a downside. for fuze it's how friendly fire is a liability, for thermite it's that he exposes himself, for kapkan it's that massive glowing laser is a dead giveaway. there's literally no downside to taking more bullets.

>>170409983
it can be easily destroyed in multiple ways
>>
>>170410732
If you think the enemy is going to pick Fuze, and you _counter_ that by picking Jaeger, you've made a poor decision. Rook or Doc could help everyone on your team survive a cluster charge, Pulse and Valk can see Fuze trying to plant, Smoke can force Fuze off a barriade, and Mute actually functions as a proper "counter" by stopping the cluster charge from going off at multiple spots. Unless your definition of "counter" involves shooting everyone with the 416, then no, Jaeger does not count as a Fuze counter.

Hold on, lets go and explain your "downsides"

>Fuze
>Friendly fire

Friendly fire is a universal constant in this game. Fuze is not disproportionately more prone to friendly firing a team mate than, lets say, shooting them in the back, or throwing a frag grenade into a room occupied by your team mates. If your Fuze blows up a room your team mates are in, that's not a downside of the gadget.

>Thermite
>Exposes himself

Please explain in what way Thermite disproportionately exposes himself over the games status quo of breaching charges?

>Kapkan
>Glowing Laser

How does this negatively impact Kapkan, other than his gadget might not get a kill. What way does this hinder Kapkan, or your team.

There are very few Operators with a downside in the game. Mira is one of them, because the attackers can flip Mira's dynamic on it's head and give them a MASSIVE advantage, negatively impacting the entire team and potentially costing you the match. None of the people you listed have this problem.

I simply said they could, quote, "see Fuze", which they undeniably can. This, as I was arguing, makes them a better decision to pick than Jaeger, if you care about stopping cluster charges from hitting your team. I never, ever, called anyone but Mute a counter in that discussion. With different spellings and meanings, "decision" and "counter" are very different words, please learn them.

If you start ignoring the definitions of words behind the fragile excuse of "semantics lol" then you've basically admitted your argument didn't hold up, or you used the wrong words to describe your original statement/point.
Rather than argue about semantics, why don't you just admit you meant "mitigate" instead of "counter" like a grown fucking man?

If you still want to insist that Jager is a counter to Fuze, I'll give you some real examples of counters in Siege:
>Mute and Bandit counter Thermite and Hibana
>Thatcher counters Bandit and Mute
>IQ counters Kapkan, Valkyrie, Echo, and Pulse
>Ash and Sledge counter Castle
>Mute combined with Castle counter Fuze
You should get the idea now

No detonation, no hole. The hole is produced by the tube the shoots the grenades into the room, and that tube doesn't extend unless you trigger the cluster charge. Test it yourself sometime. Place a cluster charge anywhere, then pick it back up, there shouldn't be a hole.
>>
>>170414150
You are arguing semantics. You are trying to apply a hard definition to a word that has a wide and flexible definition. Yes, counters can not be 1:1 proportional. Yes, Jager diminishing the effectiveness of Fuzes's device so they don't immediately fuck your team is an appropriate use of the term "counter" - you denied intent.

And yes Fuze can be an effective counter to Jager as well depending on how your team is set up. Siege has a reasonably complex meta that is non binary in nature and counters - while many are binary, some are not, and some are counters to team compositions and strategies rather than very specific traits (ie Jackal countering "roamers" - a style of play - and not just a specific operator or two)

So instead of trying to claim victory by redefining words like some SJW cuck going all "RACISM ACTUALLY MEANS THIS", maybe just shut the fuck up :)
>>
>>170414801
>"So instead of trying to claim victory by redefining words"
But that's what you're doing, retard.
Within the context of game design, counter is widely accepted to be a 1:1 or more relationship, with the "more" going against the side getting its effects removed or nullified.
"Mitigation" is the common term for partially removing an effect without completely nullifying it.
Also:
>"like some SJW cuck going all "RACISM ACTUALLY MEANS THIS", maybe just shut the fuck up :)"

Why is it I went through 4 years of college majoring in English and I never once seen someone argue bullshit semantics of synonymous words like you are?

The fact you are mitigating his effectiveness is countering him. Doesn't matter if it's 1:1 proportional, because a lot of "counters" you listed aren't even 1:1 proportions. Thatcher isn't a 1:1 denial of Mute, because Mute now has an early warning signal for the defenders, keeping them in an advantageous position (more time to defend) and still denies alternative entry points, potential drone access, etc.

And yes you keep trying, desperately, to turn this into some sort of semantic trap, and then try to defend that you are not. I can make a flow chart if you want of how simply this is, but I can really summarize it below

>Can Jager deny and/or delay Fuze's intent in a predictable way?

It's really that simple. If yes, he is somewhat of a counter pick, and actually WAS a counter up until the third charge was a hard yes.

If you answer no, you are literally wrong and just shitposting.

Boi I just tried this shit and it didn't work. Made myself look like a dunce. Maybe I'm supposed to aim somewhere else and not directly on the mirror?
>>
Did some testing with a friend.

Contrary to what I and at least one other person in this thread claimed, Rook's armor does NOT guarantee an incap.

If you throw a grenade at someone's feet, he's going to die.
If he walks in front of a claymore, he's going to die.
If he gets shot in the back twice by Glaz at point-blank range, he's going to die.

However, I did find some strange results:
>Rook's shotgun (50x8 damage) at point blank will incap Pulse but not kill him
>a nitro cell at point blank will not kill Rook with armor (I didn't test this on a 1 armor)
>two shots from Rook's revolver on Pulse with armor (observed 65 damage) will NOT kill him, despite adding up to 130 damage
>after being revived and taking another plate from the bag, these oddities were NOT observed

There could be some kind of allowance for friendly fire. More testing needs to be done. However, it seems to me that rook armor increases your DBNO health pool by some amount.

If it's possible to determine the exact damage values of frag grenades and nitro cells, that would help.

Jaeger blows all his resources to waste 1/3 of Fuze's.
He is weak as a counterpick and not at all an actual counter.

On the other hand, Fuze only has to use one of his three charges to eliminate 5 of Jaeger's 6 ADS charges.

Fuze counters Jaeger much, much more than Jaeger counters Fuze.

>>170408871

It's a meager 20 health, he's only worth picking if the point already has its bases covered, and even then there are plenty of other operators that are worth considering just for their superior firepower and roaming.

What?
Rook is always a good pick.
I think his pro league pick rate was something like 75%.
>>
>>170416472
This is the problem you get into when you only quantify the actual gadgets themselves - there is other quantifiable data you can research if you cared enough to track data (Fuze damage and/or kill rate with vs without Jager present), and then there is qualitative data such as how objectives are set up and the fact if gives you time to reorganize and change your game plan.

If Fuze eats up your Jager charges, and you haven't done anything different and continue to sit in the room to get hit with the remaining 9 pucks that aren't Fuzeable, you are dumb.

But this is the problem with the analysis on the whole - it substantially under values surviving the first charge + now having the knowledge Fuze is present + giving you time to adapt. We have to assign those sorts of things a value before we can say whether or not it's a good decision.

But we could agree that, sure, Fuze has the edge over Jager, but the debate really is by just how much?
>>
>>170416804
>but the debate really is by just how much?
No, it's not. You claim Jaeger is a counter to Fuze but he clearly isn't. He is a counterpick, in that you can pick him to mitigate the effect Fuze has on the objective, but he's one of the weakest counterpicks because he only stops one charge.

>if gives you time to reorganize and change your game plan.
It also gobbles up all but one ADS charge, leaving the objective pretty vulnerable to any other grenade: flashes, frags, EMPs, even smokes. Fuze, on the other hand, still has 2/3 cluster charges, which he can deploy on any room at any time.

>>
>>170417138
>he only stops one charge

Stopping one charge is significant. I think you are downplaying just how much damage one charge can do.

Do we really need to begin a long term study to complete this debate? Cause I can record game clips and damage received to the team every time a Fuze is used in a match, but to get a really good analysis even started I'm going to need 100

But as an example:
If one charge can stop someone down and two people receiving 30% damage, isn't that actually a really good use? Does your team not come out ahead not receiving that damage and now knowing Fuze can meme on the objective? And this example doesn't even count someone dying from a Fuze charge.

Once again it all comes back to, can Jager deny intent in a predictable manner.

But atleast we agree. He's a counterpick, but he's a weak one. But you aren't picking him exclusively for Fuze, you are picking him for all the "if they didn't pick Fuze" benefits plus the perks you get from him IF they picked Fuze. It's a package deal.

We could also argue that since Fuze now has 3 charges and it's effect on the meta (even more people doing off point defense now) that Jager's "counter pick" for Fuze isn't as big of a deal, because most people aren't even going to be in the room anymore.

>>170416730

Because it's a passive buff and having a slight advantage over your enemies is always good, but rook's armor isn't going to do anything most of the time due to the high ttk and instant death headshots. In no situation is he almost essential, it's just that his ability is consistently useful regardless of map or objective.

The argument is literally

"Can Jager provide a team benefit vs Fuze"

Or what I have above, can he reliably deny intent?

Shit it all comes back to that, all the other shit is either semantics, or ignoring objective truths about Siege. It's just funny to call someone stubborn when you are either actually arguing, or heavily implying, there is no benefit to denying a cluster charge.

On defence, barbed wire is the most important tool utilized. Barb wire is a counter to Ash rushing the point, or anyone for that matter. However, Ash can use her gadget to destroy one piece of barbed wire per gadget (2). The counter to a grenade destroying barbed wire is guarding the barbed wire with an ADS. To counter the guarding of barbed wire with an ADS the attackers bring operators with flashbangs or smoke grenades. Ash can either use her smoke grenades to smoke off doorways or sight lines, or Ash can burn out the ADSs. All of this revolves around the ADSs that cannot remove more than two grenades/throwables from play.

If Jager does not gaurd barbed wire he is putting his team at a disadvantage. ADSs used as denial from a Fuze charge is only viable if there is not a third point of attack that needs its barbed wire guarded.

Even then, if Jager puts all three ADSs in the point it will only stop 6 of the 15 total pucks. 9 pucks will still enter the objective. And only one puck is required to down someone.

Jager is not the counter to Fuze as there is no counter play after Fuze makes his play. Blindly shooting at the ceiling or wall is not unique to a character and does not eliminate the grenades from play.

Fuze is cheese character. Anyone can press [gadget deployment] key and hope that their pucks pick up an easy kill.

The only reliable counter to fuzing is to roam and do run outs. I hope you're in favor of these tactics.

>>170419597
All of this is great and all, but you completely overlook that:

>more pucks entering the objective means higher liklihood of receiving damage, getting downed, or getting killed
>so less pucks = still a net benefit

>the ADS system grants time, and information, even if it's used up by Fuze

While I agree that effective policy for Fuze is prevention, rather than curative since it's mostly impossible to deal with him once that charge is planted... but if all else fails, at the very least you have a temporary inoculation against getting fucked. As you said, if those pucks are going to come in ANYWAYS, and they are likely going to fuck up everything in the room regardless, how is the ADS acting like an early warning system not a net benefit to your team?

Or, look at it this way, even if you could set ADS to not intercept those pucks... Would you? Probably not, because they are going to get all over the fucking room and destroy that shit anyways. So it's better you gain something out of the equation, than nothing. And what you are gaining is time, damage mitigation, and information.

As I said above, Siege's meta is non binary, and has many factors. Yes, two characters can actually be countering each other at the same time. Think like Chess, sometimes you have to sacrifice a piece to gain a piece, or a better position on the board.

I'm just tired of people trying to make this a quantifiable argument, but not including all quantifiable statistics and ignoring all the qualitative points.

You can only do that against bad players. You can't spawnpeek or rush good players, you just die. Obviously there are exceptions but the average player has really bad situational awareness. Diamonds have good aim and game sense while the average casual player is exactly that, a casual player who isn't very good.

let's talk about shotguns on attackers.

in particular, Thermite, Sledge and Buck.

I'm a flanker kind of guy and would prefer to attack from above or below than from the same floor.

This usually lets me 1v1 the roamer, but usually you have the advantage with drones, which I have two because I usually pick the first drone up outside after spotting everything I need to spot.

I am partial to Thermite bringing shotguns as a breach-oriented specialist. He can go to the top floor and breach any hatches.
if it's reinforced, he can breach it with the thermite.
if it's not, he can just shotgun through it.
this would work with a teammate flanking with you and armed with a rifle, but since you are attacking from an unexpected angle, even a pistol can kill them.

now, we can talk about Sledge and Buck.
these operators can breach from below the objective.
with their shotguns, they can shoot open the hatches from below and lob grenades in for some easy kills.
naturally, Jager will neuter this strat but if you don't see a Jager in the beginning it's very viable.
Sledge has his machine pistol and Buck has his rifle primary for normal killing.

Shotguns on attackers are a bad idea in general, they can work but you don't have the freedom most defenders have when it comes to picking or getting favorable positions.

>>170427000
Agreed. If your team comp doesn't have a way to easily get rid of Castlecades, and depending on where it is, removing a Castlecade + 2 pellet hole is effectively opening up two routes of access.

It's all circumstantial, but as a Hibana main, I've done it multiple times, and it usually works out well.

I like utility.
I pick Smoke on defense and use the shotgun to make crouch holes between bombs (don't need impact grenades),

also, with a shotgun you can close off the objective room and open the hatches leading down.

the machine pistol is still good even without ACOG.

while Smoke is pretty much the only defender who can be this versatile, other people with a shotgun can help too.

Caveira actually doesn't really want to kill with her shotgun as much as she wants to kill with interrogation.

>>170427274
Blackbeard is literally a non-issue. I kill Blackbeards flanking with pistols.

Blackbeard players have horrible tunnel vision and are prone to getting killed from something as simple as just jumping out a window from the next room.

>tfw I pick the 1014 as Thermite

Do you know how great it is for a Defender to try and get the jump on you, thinking you have the 99% of the time rifle, only to get pumped full of rapid fire 12 gauge?

>>170427000
If time is against you, it's not a horrible idea if your breachers are already dead or too split from you, it's just sub-optimal.
When you're running Thermite+Hibana you can easily afford it, especially if you already have all hatches and major walls breached.

>>170427392
I think it's circumstantial at the end of the day. Sometimes a Castle'd door being open can be more beneficial than a hatch.

It all comes down to circumstance and what the situation dictates... But even if you don't do it 9 out of 10 times, that 1 out of 10 times you DO do it? HUGE plus for her to add to her resume of Swiss Army Knife shit

let's just say, if the Castle barricade not important you can just melee it and the Castle player is an absolute moron

but the game is a terrible mess Anon. The game is in continued development by a dev team that has zero sense of design and balance, important issues are not being targeted in favor of selling new hats, and communication with the community is horrible and tightly scripted by corporate overlords.

It's a mess of a game and the only reason to pick ranked is the added complexity of picking spawn points. If you could choose spawns in casual there would be 0 reason to ever play ranked matches.
>>
>>170427550
there is a distinct difference between playing solo and with friends.

in solo you can do whatever. I mostly flank alone and that usually makes me do well.

in friends you're more inclined to go with your team. and this means if you're used to flanking and not good with attacking head-on, your play will suffer.

>>170427618
>>170427652
why don't you go cry about your rank on reddit where people will actually give you highfives and hugs for it

you're going to cry and care about rank here where we don't even know who you are

let's be completely honest, if this was CSGO rank you'd be a bit more respectable. but rank in R6 Siege is like rank in Overwatch. literally no one cares.
>>
>>170427550
Don't worry about it, just play some solo queue ranked with music on. If you stress out you play a lot worse
I actually like playing by myself a little moreso than in a group. Whenever I play with others I tend to play support roles, barely break even in kills, and tank my ranked KDR. If you soloq you can play Ash/Jaeger/Twitch/whatever and not worry about there not being a Thatcher or Mute

They aren't going to fix hit registration. It's not possible with their skillset. It's clear with how they have handled patches on the whole they are incapable of making small and minor changes to the game without fucking everything up... OR even basic play testing. A tester with half a brain would have identified the melee glitch and had repro steps typed up in 10 minutes. The patch still somehow went live.

The dev team doesn't have the fucking skill to implement things properly, let alone the common sense to do basic checks on shit they are patching.

It's never going to happen, get over it.

What's wrong with that? You're not blaring music out from your headphones, it's something light in the background.
If you play anyone with a good gun you don't really have to worry about positioning, just outaim everyone. I'm not that good at the game, but I'm not gold shitter either. Maybe if you wanted to break into diamond you wouldn't do this, but it's workable anywhere else.
