So fucking funny holy shit, I had to get myself checked because I wasn't sure you could take such a hilarious joke without suffering physical injuries.

Should I put a compensator on the Mk17? Shit has so much recoil even when burst firing but the magazine is so small I practically mag dump anyways.

>>170428758
Was the MK17 BB's Scar or DMR?
Regardless, slap a muzzle on both.

>>170428758
>Shit has so much recoil even when burst firing
Which would make a case for using the Flash hider or Muzzle Brake.
Most people I know have best luck using the Muzzle brake on it, since it reduces the major first-shot recoil the Mk17 has.
Compensator doesn't kick in until really far into a burst/spray, so it wouldn't help as much in that case.
As a good rule of thumb, Muzzle's on ARs and Flash hiders on SMGs, I really don't feel like Compensators help nearly enough with recoil in most cases to be worth using.

Are the weeklys still broken?

>>170428810
Why? He's not invincible window sniper man anymore.

Hey guys, I just picked this game up a week ago and I really like it.

I'm curious though if macros are a bannable offense. My mouse support macros and it helps my DMR play.
A friend of mine told me they weren't but he's been wrong before.

>>170428508
>not enjoying the thrill of not knowing what objective you are defending until you spawn into it and have to make the best of what could be a fucked situation

Shits fun tbqh

>>170428758
Muzzle brake, the spray is uncontrollable but the Mk17 fires so slowly that if you're in a situation that you're spraying at someone you'd be dead already

>>170428985
Unless a system has built in settings to make macros generally it's not allowed.

>>170428881
Doesn't matter, even just 2 bullets blocked creates a good window of time when you know how to pre-aim or predict enemy movement/positioning.
He's not a crutch op anymore, so a lot of shitters think he's useless now, but he still rewards good players just fine.

>>170428985
Ubi stepped out and said that Macros are a bannable offense a while ago. Since it's kind of a grey area, since not all macros are "exploits" of sorts, they said it's not guaranteed, but it might be judged on a case-by-case basis. Either way just don't risk anything that seems like it'd be obvious enough to get reported for. You're not going to get banned for just changing button functions.

>>170428881
The muzzlebreak makes sure your first couple of bullets hit their mark. It supports a controlled fire playstyle and with BB you will wanna stay at medium range and get those headshots while holding an angle.

Some anons will use literally anything they do differently from others as a means to justify their "superiority" over other people.
Just ignore them and move on, anything you say or do can and will be used against you in the court of "you're mad lol" with people like that.

>>170429095
>>170429075
Not the same guy but I've encountered a player playing ranked who was quite obvious with his macro.

He burstfired every weapon perfectly, also in situations he shouldn't have.

He started claiming that macros are bannable and started sperging when we said that it is.

At the end we all reported him but Ubi never lets you know if your report had any effect or not.

>>170429095
>He's not a crutch op anymore
I was playing casual and we all died leaving Blackbeard in a 1v3, he had absolutely shit aim and crosshair placement but managed to clutch simply because he tanked all the headshots.

>>170429475
What platform and when?
I wanna make fun of my friend if it was him

>>170429537
It was PC EU like a week ago

>>170429475
Then the players left alive were shit and held obvious angles, and/or didn't prefire him properly. His shield has always been bigger than his field of vision, and since he's effectively a 1 speed with his shield equipped, unless you're peeking into his line of sight you should be able to break his shield as he peeks unless you aren't calling him out properly and playing overly aggressive, since:
>leaving Blackbeard in a 1v3
most players get greedy in situations like that.

>>170429437
One of my old mouses (mice?) had a button on it programmed to triple-click. It's not complex, and could be handled pretty easily by a real person. It's that much of an advantage, so I don't think it should be a bannable offense.
Shit like >>170429305, on the other hand, isn't something that consistently be done by somebody (and that's without considering how OP that shit was to begin with) - that's worthy of a ban IMO.

>>170428873
Yep.

I know guns have different levels of penetration but sometimes it feels like the stronger rifles in this game don't properly pierce walls. It's really dumb when I know someone is behind a wall and mag dumping doesn't kill them.

>>170429795
With the one-shot headshot in place it's easy to forget how much of an effect falloff + armor values + wallbang reductions can have on final damage. Also accounting for how many potential misses you're making when you're firing blind through a wall, in the end the majority of successful wallbang kills are going to be with headshots, unless the enemy is already wounded.
At least just in my experience.

>>170429986
Two pumps from a shotgun not killing outright when shooting through walls is dumb, really, especially when you see it's shot through two walls with a 5m gap between them.
I fucking hate Sledge.

>>170429679
He used his macro to burstfire bucks DMR though, that sounds like a pretty nice advantage to me.

So what are the different drawfags working on now?

>>170430239
kys.jpg

>try to burst fire
>always lose peaks
>just spray with the slightest effort of mitigating recoil
>win every peak

>>170430192
I'm going to assume wallbang damage reductions are a percentage, just like all other reductions in the game. That's going to affect shotguns more than anything else since it's going to be calculated per-pellet rather than per-shot. It's unfortunate, but it's just how the game works.

>>170430385
No, but it's still a liability as your pic suggests.

>>170430305
>just spray with the slightest effort of mitigating recoil
more bullets = more chances to hit a head.
Burst firing only works if you have good timing and know how to aim. Otherwise, more dakka means enemies will have more pressure on them, and the dumb ones will peek you while you're firing and you'll end up headshotting them.

>>170430385
No, fixed in 2.1.1 two weeks ago

>>170430385
I had more luck using it on non-reinforced walls as a peek hole.

>>170430281

nah

>>170430220
You could triple click and do the exact same thing. Not difficult.

>>170430316
I'm talking about going against Sledge, not using him. Despite being a 2 armour, I've found he can sponge a huge amount of damage, but that's probably just because he's a large angry bald Scottish man.
>implying shotgun on Sledge is a bad thing
>he doesn't want to have the versatility of cheeky little killholes in addition to big fucking holes
If he had a shitty secondary I'd agree with you, but the SMG-11 is just as good as a primary.

>>170430617
Shotguns on attack in general just don't run well with me. Acogs are attackers' best friends since peeking is a common threat, and also since you're generally going to be holding longer angles as attackers than you will be defenders.
If the smg-11 still had an acog I'd say picking the shotgun on him is no big deal, but you lose too much flexibility and ammo, and since he is Sledge it ends up feeling a bit redundant.
I only find attack shotguns semi-effective on Hibana and Twitch, since theirs' have a couple of the longest kill-ranges of all shotguns, and even then using those is mostly just for fun.

>>170430707
With how common Ash is, it's best if you make sure you're only pulling that trick on walls that aren't optimal for attackers to have open early on. Walls closer to the edges of an objective, that won't give line of sight into the other point defenders are the best candidates for it.

>>170430809
Not gutter trash, but not great. Keep working on it though buddy, you're not far from breaking even.

A little unclear, but are you referring to the fact that there are more optimal bomb sites that most teams will run more often?
Because if so then yeah I don't think reworking bomb-sites or changing old maps significantly is something on their priority list unfortunately, what with them having the goal of releasing fresh new maps and operators every three months instead of focusing on fixing and improving upon what we already have.


I'm all for free new content, but god damn I just want to take a season off of new shit to get the preexisting shit improved, namely the fucking servers. Take that dosh for a new season of ops and just buy fucking servers with it, fuck. The "50-100 new ops" dream can die, all it's going to do is distract them from core content improvements.

It's also way easier to magdump with a DMR and always it to be played more like a regular rifle with higher damage and accuracy.

My bad

Is there a dedicated group of plat players to play with?

Quick question that I probably could find an answer to just by googling, but I'm lazy.

When I see gameplay-videos of r6, you can see your teammates through walls, is this in all modes? Is there a more realistic mode, where actual teamplay, communication etc is important, not just a cod-copy? Like r6 3?

>>170432050
Check the Discord :^)

>>170432338
Link?

>>170432295
You can choose to see teammates through walls. If it bothers you then you can turn off player outline, player icon and playername.

>>170432025
Dunno if it lands on glass but it does land above and you get flashed if you are under it. Doesn't happen 100% of the time but anyone can reproduce this in a few tries.

is there any way to remove the stupid gold character pick card you get when you use elite uniforms?

i just want to look the way I want, but having so much attention drawn to yourself makes it look like an attention seeking thing and now I don't want to buy at all

>>170432416
But this is not a server side selection?

>>170432512
The entire point of the elite skins is to be special butterfly. Let's be honest, the skins look like shit, the only reason people buy them is because they're different.

>>170432686
vympel looks alright

>>170432572
>he thinks there's server settings

>>170432572
No, there is no open multiplayer server that you can setup with a feature like that.

You can do custom matches with friends and play realistic mode, which is truely exclusive to custom matches.

>>170432754
Imagine a universe where all the operators had our current elite skins as the standard. Then imagine that Ubisoft released the regular as an elite skin.

I don't know about you but I think the feedback would be a lot better then "ok" and you'd also have bought it.

>>170432686
Sledge's Elite skin is fucking solid, special snowflake or not. If I were to buy any one Elite it'd be that one, almost just because I play so much of the SAS and I'd be able to use the weapons skins between them all.

>>170433279
Out of all of them I'd say that sledge has the best one, followed by Kapkan and then thermite.
Rooks elite is just ugly.

>>170433461
I think the body on Rook's Elite skin looks nice, but it's just that the helmet looks like shit

>>170433564
I like how cheeky his victory animation is, picking bullets off his chest.
It's basically a Sundowner moment, I love it.

>>170433461
>Rooks elite is just ugly
I thought so too, but in-game it's not as flashy as I thought it would be, and I actually think it's fitting, and pretty tasteful.
I'd say my list of preference is
>Sledge
>Thermite
>Rook
>Kapkan
I'd like Kapkan's a lot more if it weren't for the white and blue striped shirt. I know it's authentic for Russian Afghanistan operations, but the extra splash color just makes it stand out too much. I don't necessarily hate it, but I'd never consider buying it, even if it was available for a lot of renown.

>>170433564
I agree. If the visor wasn't so big I'd say it'd be on par with Thermite's.

>>170434463
APM isn't a good way to describe actions in an fps since your muscle memory isn't going to have as close of a relationship with your thought processes as it will with games like SC2.
You can aim, control bursts, tap fire, and/or control recoil without dipping into your critical thinking as much.

Shouldn't be happening. Spaz is one of the few good semi-auto shotguns leftover after the nerfs.
Are you aiming for the head? Because if you are, you shouldn't be, and the only other reason you wouldn't have killed him is if your aim was shit.

>>170436049
doesnt it do the same damage as a bodyshot or did they change that? last I heard it was 1x damage on a headshot.

>>170435845
Fair enough, I still feel like it's an advantage to have your dmr upgraded to a burstfire rifle but I can see how it won't affect your aiming if you put it like that.
>>170435757
I'm sorry for being so rude anon

>>170436203
Oh no I'm not arguing that tapping really quickly won't affect your aim, because it will, but that's more of a physical control issue that can be compensated for with practice.
I was just arguing that those physical processes, once practiced to be part of your muscle memory, aren't going to have as much cross-over into your mental processes in most FPS'.

It wouldn't be that hard to do, technically. Like the hats, just giveeach operator a half-dozen pallete swaps, like blue/back, jungle, desert, etc. camos, and then automatically use them depending on the map.

I'd say the downside is recognition, in that an enemy operator being different colors makes it hard to identify at a glance who it is, but Ubisoft's premium uniforms already do this so they clearly don't care.

>Defend this?
I won't.
It's bad design, but it's not nearly bad enough for me to complain about constantly since all of the operators can be earned with in game currency. The only part that seriously bugs me about it with the vanilla ops is the whole "every ctu member you buy bumps of the price of the next member of that ctu" thing, because it makes even less sense and seems so fucking arbitrary.

I'd much prefer if the game came with all operators and attachments unlocked, (with maybe some higher skill/higher liability operators behind a level limit) and all you ever earned currency for was a wider but more detailed/subtle pool of cosmetics. That'd be my dream system, but it'd have to be for a new/different game.

>>170438602
It's idiotic but don't worry anon, it's really fast to unlock all ops other than the DLC ops. Ubisoft made the game, so fuckawful business practices that make you develop tumors are bound to pop up. Just remember to rip off the tumours and enjoy the game, as hard as that can be these days. There are ways to cheesily gain renown over night so like, just don't worry or stress over renown. The point should be to have fun and not buy all ops.

I mean fuck, I have a lot of ops to unlock and I have 120k renown stored up. Fact of the matter is I don't want to buy Blackbeard at all so I won't. I have other ops.

LMG is pretty good for taking objectives solo. never reload, shit fury through walls, 3 speed peek advantage. Combo'd with crossbow to block additional lines of sight and shut down corners so you only have to focus one direction and you're pretty much unstoppable. its bretty gud tb.h

>>170440557
only problem is his new gadget options are complete shit, if he still had frags he would be an auto-pick

Is there some way to rebind the "drop defuser" command?
Having it on the same key you have to press to plant it is fucking ridiculous, especially when the context detection is so finicky.

Yes he's weaker since losing his grenades but he's still a great 3-speed.

Meanwhile, Caveira
>can choose between either a peashooter SMG or okay-tier shotgun, outclassed by Spas-12 and even Super 90
>has an ability that will more than likely get your stupid ass team killed
>can "bully" one of the weakest DLC operators
>suffers from an edgelord aesthetic

>>170440557
The lmg has slow ads and requires you to only make headshots. His smoke also seems smaller and won't properly cover to head height compared to a normal smoke.

Capitao might be the worst 3 speed in the game, atleast IQ has good guns and FRAGS.

>>170440557
The LMG literally has the same rate of fire as the PARA, but worse damage, worse horizontal recoil, and less attachment options.
The 100 rounds are nice in theory, but in practice, a light armor op usually won't survive long enough to make use of them when they're in a situation where they actually need them.

>>170440848

I mean, sure, his power is somewhat overrated, but if you're trying to say his guns aren't some of the best in the game, you must be deluded.

And I take issue with that shotgun comment too. The SPAS15 may suck at breaking walls, but it's way better at actually killing shit than the SPAS12 or the Spooper90

Valk is better, but Cav is really good too. Not a waste at all. Interrogations can literally win matches for you if you're effective at flanking and being in places where the enemy wouldn't expect you. Just don't use her in maps like House or Hereford where there's a lot less flanking potential.

Did they fix the challenges?

>>170442763
>>170443289
It was never stated anywhere that the devs "couldn't" fix the GSG9 hitboxes, just that they "wouldn't". One can only assume this would've been because they opted for a what-you-see-is-what-you-get approach for head hitboxes, but with Mira getting released with her earmuffs not counting as her head, it shows either someone else did her damn hitbox, or they're shit at holding onto their values.

I may get flak for this, but the WYSIWYG style for head hitboxes works well for Jager and Bandit, acting as balancing factors for their acogs, and generally high peeking-power.
IQ being a 3 speed with good guns also lets this work alright,
but Blitz? It only fucks him over. Making him 2 speed and making his shield bigger would probably let him get away with having ears-for-brains.
Though I honestly wish they would "fix" Mira's hitbox to at least have consistency with that bullshit. There's justification to having head hitboxes match up with models as long as you consider such for balance, but when you turn your back on your own standard anyways there's a problem.

I have a lot of success with Cav on Hereford.
The verticality really helps. There's just one staircase and a ladder to go up for defenders, which makes it a challenge getting up, but there are loads of options for going down.
Just be sure to remember where all the trapdoors are, and remember that almost every wall is destructible.

>>170445197
>also is there any difference in recoil behavior between barebones muzzle, silencer and extended barrel?
Barebones and silencer, no.
Extended barrel gets a teeny tiny bit of extra recoil.

>>170445891
What you see is what you get is a fine logic but it blows a hole in balance for Ash and Blitz. Blitz needs to have his headgear changed, but Ubi fucks themself over by releasing AWFUL-looking headgear that just solidifies his head's shape more. Like, Blitz is solely fucked over by the headbox.

It's either the head or the shield getting bigger. One or the other.

Oh and Ash is just so skinny it's bullshit how much she endures being three speed to boot.

yup. It's why supressors shouldn't reduce damage, it's a little overkill.

>Blitz needs to have his headgear changed
They already gave him a caveman head compared to what he had at launch, they just haven't touched his earmuffs yet.
My point was that if he was a 2 speed shield, and his shield was big enough to cover his ears entirely from the front, then maybe the big ears would feel more justified.
Also you raise a fair point. I already agree, Ash should have bigger shoulders and a bigger head. I was planning on sketching up a paint-over of Ash with a headset and Castle-styled should pads as a means of showcasing how they could 'fix' her hitbox, but it's on the backburner for now.

C tier at best

>>170445197
After playing since closed beta, here's the way I came to understand it:

Keep in mind that when ADS, your bullet will always land in the middle of your screen the moment it was fired. Right after a bullet fires, your view is kicked around, also moving the middle of your screen, usually upwards. Your weapon's sights will become inaccurate after a shot is fired, but every shot still lands perfectly in the middle of your screen. (This is why overlay sights are great for this game.)

Every gun has:
a GENERAL RECOIL FACTOR (how much kick per shot).
a FIRST SHOT MULTIPLIER (how much more kick the first shot has compared to others).
a SPREAD ZONE (The area where the middle of your screen can be kicked around randomly based on RNG. Generally shaped like a triangle standing on it's tip, but the actual length/width can vary wildly. Grows larger with every shot fired. How fast it grows depends on the gun.)
a "RECOIL CEILING" (The maximum size the spread zone can grow to.)

and also a RESET SPEED (How fast the spread zone returns to minimum after you stop firing.) and "VISUAL RECOIL" (How much the gun/sight model jitters around in addition to your view point moving.), but these are not as relevant to barrel attachments.

A muzzle brake drastically reduces the FIRST SHOT MULTIPLIER.
A flash hider reduces the GENERAL RECOIL FACTOR of the first ~4 shots.
A compensator lowers the "RECOIL CEILING".

A straight grip reduces the GENERAL RECOIL FACTOR of every shot ever.

>>170446952
What? I thought the sights were a accurate as to where your rounds are going, hence the importance of recoil control

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, anon.
It can be very obviously demonstrated by BB's Mk17, if you wanna see for yourself. Just tapfire it at a wall and you'll see.

>>170446952
>A muzzle brake drastically reduces the FIRST SHOT MULTIPLIER
Also, depending on fire rate of a weapon, Muzzle Brakes can reduce general recoil factor for the first 2-3 shots, not just the first.
>A flash hider reduces the GENERAL RECOIL FACTOR of the first ~4 shots.
Also, as far as I can tell, flash hiders reduce the horizontal size of the spread zone by an amount that varies from gun to gun. Just my observation.

>>170447161
The sights themselves can become offset from the center of your screen, but your guns will always be 100% accurate to the center of your screen despite this.
It's one of the reasons Irons are shit for most guns, since the slight tilting/movement from the recoil animation can occlude the center of your screen where as optics leave a more open sight picture and generally remain easy to read even when the sight goes off center for a brief moment between shots.

>>170447265
>#BuffBlitz
Get your reddit shit out of here. Instead of asking "How do we save Blitz?" and spewing reddit memes, how about you join one of the multiple ongoing conversations on the topic of fixing him that were already started?

>>170446746
Each new dlc operator brings something new to the game, often times it changes the meta, especially with defensive operators. Valk has cameras, giving defense info on the enemy even when they know where all the normal cam spawns are. Echo has a drone for defense, which can be used to stall the enemy team and for info like valk's cams, but instead he only has one and it's mobile. Cav provides a different approach to roaming with higher risk and higher reward playstyle, an operator that when played correctly can turn the tide of a round in seconds. Mira offers an incentive to hold the objective room by giving the defenders the option to see the enemy first. Frost has... traps, that can easily be predicted and avoided if the enemy team knows she's on the defenders. w0w

>>170448635
Is there one with Blitz?

>>170448853
that sounds fun as fuck. i'll definitely have to try him out cause it sounds like kapkan players always have a good time when things line up

>>170449154
Blitz is the only op that deserves it tßh

>>170448980
Fuze is okey but he has the problem of being always picked. Now that just means they managed to make a popular operator, but it's a chore being killed by stupidly long insta-kill ranges on the pucks. I feel the pucks could use an adjustment, it's silly how far they can instakill.

>>170449119
Problem with Kapkan is that he sounds more fun than he is. A trapper, a hunter, are all things I love to try and do but he's so fucking noisy it's a bit of a joke. And so slow too, he's designed to protect objective more than anything.

And the problem with that is that you kinda sorta might as well use other ops for that.

Still, I do pick him, because he's not a bad operator at all. But two speed would really help him. Or, maybe it'd upset the balance. I don't know.

>>170448829
I'm thinking that the Ubisoft employees each have their favorite operators, and subtly sabatoge the other ops to get their faves picked more.

So it's like the inverse of CS, instead of crosshair in middle bullets go up, its bullets in middle sights go up?

What's the point of barrel attachments then? Just to make the sights more accurate to where your gun is actually shooting?

Yeah it sometimes has free weekends, that's when I bought it. It's 5v5, Deathmatch with objectives.

It's a very good game but don't buy it at full price. It's Ubisoft too so expect retarded shit galore.

His weapons are pretty clearly some of the best in the game right now but his gadget is honestly pretty mediocre. He's a 2/2 with breaches or flashes, and i'd honestly rather play Sledge or Buck to be able to both breach walls and toss frags.

>>170451183
if you want to get him only because hes OP, then youre retarded and don't do that
if you want to get him because he seems fun to you then go ahead

>What's the point of barrel attachments then?
To reduce recoil and increase control, what kind of question is that?
Your sights don't just wobble around and go off center for seconds at a time, it's in line with the fire rate of the weapon, and on most guns it's not enough to keep the sights from being unusable by any means. The only weapons where you really see it really make a difference is on the C8 and MK17, since the kick is so high on them. Even then, the sights pretty much settle back down to the center of your screen between shots, it's just the visual lift of the model that could potentially throw your aim off if you don't have a good bearing on where the center of your screen is while firing.
You're drawing some odd conclusions from what we're telling you anon...

>>170450402
The sights are basically whatever if you use an overlay. The recoil reduction attachments are there to make it easier to hit things, since even if you technically "know" where your next shot will go, the random movement of your screen will still throw off your aim, and it can be hard to compensate adequtely in the short time between shots, especially with very high RoF weapons.

R6G is not one person and the cuck meme was funny the first three times but now it's just overdone. Joke will be directly unfunny if he keeps it up.

Also Tachanka memes are overdone, not funny, and never were funny in the first place. It's pretty much a "ripoff", if you can even call shitty memes that, from Dark Souls and its crappy community spamming about Solaire.

>>170451320
Do you think Jackal's OP? His marking is definitely a lazy roundabout from the whole "tracking" thing I thought they'd implement (but no it's just tagging. Fucking hell Ubi).

his ability is better than most people on /r6g/ seem to think, but his guns are whats really so good about him. he undeniably has the best assault rifle in the game, and his PDW is basically an LMG that doesnt suck.

Caveria is an even bigger counter to him since apparently if you are in silent step it can stop the pinging

Jackal's gadget is fine. It's free intel on defender positioning, at potentially next to no risk.
Even without the tracking, being able to see that an operator is on a certain side of the building, or upstairs/downstairs is pretty valuable information since most maps are designed around chokes that funnel roamers through certain avenues to initiate a flank.
I wouldn't label it as OP but it's not fun to play around or against in any way unless you're playing as Cav. If you're not her, the only winning move is to not move at all, otherwise you give free intel.
It's strongest use is actually for pinning down point defenders too, since the scan range is long as shit, and good point defenders will never actually sit in one spot for more than a minute and thirty seconds.
It's poorly designed at least.

>>170452238
Yeah, the ping gives him the potency that makes his gadget worth picking, but it should really have an additional limitation on its range or something. I'd rather them rework the spot mechanic entirely to be honest, so that it's a one-time ping with more charges or something along those lines.

I think the game doesn't need Jackal. I mean, you can say that about several operators but as a DLC op he's so underwhelming and even unnecessary. He really doesn't add anything but a ping and drones did that role completely fine.

On the note of Caviar, I don't really like her, she's a bit of a chore to deal with and her pistol's horseshit. Downs you fast, fires fast and you can just spam it. She plays really strongly with an extremely strong pistol that is practically a shotgun close range with how much damage it does.

When I play blitz, I get knifed through my shield.

Is that one of the bugs you guys keep talking about, or is that a latency issue?

I mained blitz during skull rain all the way to plat 1, almost diamond, and just now started playing again since then. Life has been meaningless ever since I found out that ubi pulled a sleight of hand maneuver on his shield.

Also, if you're suggesting that blitz should get a buff, you're not playing him right.
