[lethal hound]

[tulip hollow]

[tidal sonnet]

Tfla0029 error game not opening

[lethal hound]

Restart the game

[wind tinsel]

also just found out flames stick to trophies so double whammy

[onyx osprey]

Merry Christmas everyone !

[tidal sonnet]

Did it 3 times not working

[lethal hound]

Sounds like a Skill issue

[tidal sonnet]

Also verifed files integrity

[tulip hollow]

i just reset my router everytime this happens and it works

[lethal hound]

[tidal sonnet]

Ok let me try mate

[lethal hound]

Restart router contact isp

[copper dune]

The hit reg this season is so mickey mouse compared to previous seasons. Unlucky

[warm sierra]

I just clicked on "retry" and it actually logged in, now im playing!

[tulip hollow]

first time i heard mickey mouse used as an adjective lol, what does that mean

[wind tinsel]

there was a server outtage recently, its probably recuperating. hope it recovers soon

[lethal hound]

Cartoonish, giMICKEY

[compact pumice]

are we gonna address the fact that Point Break is rigged against defense?

[tulip hollow]

ok thanks, new word to my vocubulary

[wind tinsel]

embark give this guy like 6 multibucks

[copper dune]

Means its goofy basically. Not blatantly bad but not blatantly good and no clear pattern with it.

[compact pumice]

whenever I get defense, we ALWAYS lose, and when I get attack, we ALWAYS win

[lethal hound]

I don't understand point break 😔💔

[wind tinsel]

its that one battlefield gamemode but i forgot the name

[tulip hollow]

maybe if we make it 16v16

[lethal hound]

Is this hardpoint?? COD

[tulip hollow]

rush?

[tidal sonnet]

It worked 😄

[tulip hollow]

swag, merry christmas

[wind tinsel]

yes, its been so long i forgot. i wonder why its not included in present games now

[iron lion]

merry christmas to everyone to owner of the game as well all best to you all

[true pike]

i now have 3 winter skins for frag

[lethal hound]

O yea nice

Oww damn i got 2, one wrapped one ice

[distant mauve]

Kebab skewer skins for the sword and dual blades

[tulip hollow]

i think the "replacement" is that the finals style cashout ladder gamemode bf6 had. gauntlet i think

which is kind of funny

[compact pumice]

bring back Bank It

[wind tinsel]

aw but gauntlet is like multiple teams of 5, rather than just the two big ones. but at least its something

[compact pumice]

it's called Breakthrough, at least in BF1

[plush saffron]

Merry christ and jingle bell chat

[severe gale]

Whatt! I lost over 1,000 points for inactivity following the server outage, even though I just won the final.
Ce contenu est bloqué par ce serveur. De la part des modérateurs du serveur :

[wind tinsel]

like where you attack and hold an obj to unlock a new sector? idk tho ive never played bf1

[compact pumice]

yes

it's in BFV as well

[severe gale]

• suspension of matchmaking

[lethal hound]

Still sounds like hardpoint to me

You contest the area, after a timer you go to next area

Or a kill limit

[wind tinsel]

well if you put it that way then yes 😂

[lethal hound]

Time to touch some grass, or arc raiders

[true pike]

bro damn i got 8k combat score in snowball

[lethal hound]

Oww damn

[turbid delta]

snowball

[true pike]

9 elim 10 assist 3 deaths

this is because im drinking a can of ospuze rn, of course

[tulip hollow]

part of me wishes cod is a properly handled game, i still think under all that slop the core gamemodes are really fun

[lethal hound]

Is there any winter reward wheel ? After the update?

[true pike]

no idont tihnk so

[tulip hollow]

just contracts

[lethal hound]

Volpe contract stage 3 opened yayy

[true pike]

if only the dagger felt better to use 😔

[tulip hollow]

never really used dagger. is it true that you can facestab people tf2 style

[lethal hound]

I spent 500 hours or so in codm

[lethal hound]

Just dash on their face

[true pike]

except im NEVER the one with enough ping issues to do that

[lethal hound]

Still, dash on their faces, even with high ping

[distant mauve]

Tf2 melee hitreg is significantly worse than the finals so facestabs are more common

[true pike]

tf2 dead

[wind tinsel]

if your dashing towards them then might as well use sword

[lethal hound]

I hate lights (as a heavy main) so i join them 😄

[wind tinsel]

forward dash backstab tech is genuinely hard to learn

[true pike]

if only they didnt REMOVE my precious smoke thermal 😡

[tulip hollow]

all games that can be abbreviated to TF is either fated to die or low player count

[distant mauve]

Tasty farts 2 dead 💔

[wind tinsel]

The F

[near zenith]

too freaky

[wind tinsel]

or just F

[distant mauve]

Tf2 is more of a chore to play than actually fun because of the worst matchmaking system ever made

[blazing junco]

do i see destiny 2 thunderlord in this economy?

[lethal hound]

What in the nama tama is the TF or TF2 is?

[wind tinsel]

Titan Fortress 2

[distant mauve]

I'm return stroking it so good I'm an arc weapon man I got beacons man

[lethal hound]

First time seeing that name tbh

[tulip hollow]

return what

[lethal hound]

Not available in india ig

[blazing junco]

i am more of a stasis titan bc its better

[karmic valley]

Guys question of my life
Is the new bow in shop has any animations???

[tulip hollow]

no mr john pork

[wind tinsel]

Team Finals 2: the Fall

[lethal hound]

Tf2 : tf

[karmic valley]

Sadge but at least finally a new bow skin I'll take it

[wind tinsel]

ok youre pushing it

[true pike]

na

[karmic valley]

The fuck 2: the finals

[distant mauve]

Doomsday is a map not a mode and its literally just cashout

[tulip hollow]

same with the alien saucer delivery mode. we have the technology

[covert flax]

imagine a bow skin that shoots sparklers

[lethal hound]

Bow users are never satisfied with skins wth

[karmic valley]

Because we've been waiting for a proper skin on bow for a year smh

[true pike]

bro lowkey why is the virtual extension the greatest skin for the arn

[lethal hound]

They should update the game name in year 3

[cerulean frost]

do you guys recommend frame generation?

[karmic valley]

No

[zealous marten]

Okay, took me ONE game to find out this mode is completely unbalanced, what were they thinking???
Did they not playtest this mode at all?????

They gave mesh shield to heavy in this mode without any adjustments, and all snowballs deal same damage regardless of which class, so heavy is overwhelmingly broken over other classes and just makes playing medium or light straight up not fun and not even remotely playable.

Why didn't they just make it all one class and gave it dash or something?
What was the point of adding medium or light as an option if it's going to be like this??

[wind tinsel]

i might be tripping but did a dev say theyre working on bots for a practice range version of a full fledged quick cash mode

[tulip hollow]

its supposed to be fun (subjective) not balanced

[true pike]

bro fym light is busted as hell

[wind tinsel]

this was a while back btw

[zealous marten]

That's the THING it's NOT FUN if you're not playing heavy, and just fucking cockblocks everything else.

[true pike]

i do agree that medium is kinda balls but you can def use the jump pad for goofy shi

[random cypress]

Light is so good, easily 10+ kills each match

[inland crest]

They said that they were working towards something like that yeah

[acoustic swift]

I love seeing my enemies lose so badly that they have to start using explosives and melee

[lethal hound]

Valentine's skin was decent, season 3? Was masterpiece

[true pike]

bro you're just not that good at the game

[abstract juniper]

someone show me the event skins

[true pike]

you do realise that the light class has the q button?

[lethal hound]

Upscaling is a better choice if you ask me

[zealous marten]

Already most people figured this sht out when the mode hasn't been out that long, that my enemy lobby is 5 heavies on the 2nd game

[versed sail]

If you are 1hp and holding mesh in front of me, imma quick melee you

[wind tinsel]

ok cool idk when itll will be released or the very least announced but im excited for that

[tulip hollow]

literally dash through the shield

[true pike]

everyone is playing heavy because its the quest

[random cypress]

they probably doin their contract

[zealous marten]

shut up orange role

[cerulean frost]

kk ill use dlss

[true pike]

this is why you're stuck in silver my boy

[versed sail]

Just had a light go 11-4-3 but yes heavy is the only playable class

[wind tinsel]

ladies please, together we are the finals

[inland crest]

Well it might not be, there’s no guarantee it will be feasible to get it to a satisfactory standard

same goes for many things a dev team may attempt

[zealous marten]

Sounds like projection to me, I've never once been lower than gold in placements.
Don't act like you're better than other people, when you don't even know who you're even talking to. Randomly dissing others in chat to boost your ego is pathetic

[true pike]

bro i went 10-9-3 as light just a match ago

[tulip hollow]

green role might be all theyll ever have, cut them some slack lol

[brittle jasper]

together we're the finals indeed

[wind tinsel]

god i LOVE it when game companies try risky fun shit

[true pike]

bro send that as an email while you're at it unc

[versed sail]

My team was 2 L and 3 H, I was the only heavy with a good kd 💀

[zealous marten]

Exactly, most people are playing heavies for a reason

[abstract juniper]

this is why you're stuck in silver my boy

[true pike]

"block 10,000 damage"

[lethal hound]

Controller guy has 11 kills hmmm 🤔

[versed sail]

Literally the only class that has a challenge around it, that shit easy to do in a match tho

[lethal hound]

I use TAA 80-90% might work for you

[forest saddle]

pc gaming might be dying, chat. maybe console is gonna win now

[inland crest]

Why?

[tulip hollow]

why not dlss? (assuming you have nvidia)

[wind tinsel]

tdm dome shield and the muhfuckin uhhhhhh barricade thingymajig

[acoustic swift]

Uuh, wrong message (?)

[versed sail]

Consoles need ram and shit too so everyone is fucked tbh

[lethal hound]

Yeah i have 1650 and dlss sucks

[true pike]

"snowball blitz"

[brittle jolt]

From my family to yours merry christmas to everyone here! ❤️

[tulip hollow]

interesting

[wind tinsel]

ok yeah we're cooked

[lethal hound]

They eat up my pixels, make the images blurry etc etc

[acoustic swift]

BAHAHAH

[forest saddle]

ram prices, nvidia not willing to give us gpus. now on top of that, they are limiting their geforce now playtime. even players with subscriptions are gonna get 100 hours a month playtime

[versed sail]

Bronze is the best ranked to place in this season tho

The player card background

[true pike]

why are you digging through my messages lmao

[forest saddle]

so, even cloud gaming is not an option anymore

[cold karma]

lol

[wind tinsel]

crazy reciept

[cerulean frost]

nothing beats the dlss crispiness tho

[dawn barn]

y

[versed sail]

Huh? I'm not even placed but pop off ig

[inland crest]

Consoles need RAM in exactly the same way as a PC and NVIDIA is not the only option for GPUs. AMD would capitalise on that if they do want to withdraw from competing over the consumer market.

Geforce now seems unrelated.

[versed sail]

Ghost pings so creative lmao

[lethal hound]

Oww hell nah, i played rdr2 on fsr dlss couldn't keep up, it wasn't even close, I'm in love with either TAA or fsr since then

[tulip hollow]

is the word "bot" really automodded lol

nvm it isnt someone is just bored

[dawn barn]

i play fianls on my potato laptop outside using steam connect but i have to open my pc at home whcih bears all the load

[cerulean frost]

i think it really depends on the monitor and gpu you have

[forest saddle]

yeah but what if amd doesnt capitalise? what if they betray us too? and with no competition, what if they raise their prices too? that would not be good

[wind tinsel]

the next money spread is just gonna be a bunch of ram sticks

[quartz violet]

You're not special bro, just a quick way to see if the person shit talking about ranks has a leg to stand on

Just found it funny and memeable

[inland crest]

If there is a gap in the market then there is an incentive to fill it. Not sure what you mean by “betray”, but I just don’t think AMD is competitive with NVIDIA on the datacenter card front?

[tulip hollow]

they would never do that..... leave the multibillion dollar company alone......

[indigo smelt]

Merry Christmas fellow finalists!

[brittle jasper]

rdr2 has old dlss

[true pike]

the message itself is a joke but alr

[forest saddle]

yeah, i guess they arent

[brittle jasper]

the game is already very "blurry" even on native so i will never use dlss or fsr

[shy crown]

The solo q experience:

Your medium either doesn't doesn't bring defib, doesn't use it, or uses it in the middle of the teamfight and dies in the process

[cerulean frost]

oh yeah and that

[forest saddle]

try playing at 540p like me

[zealous marten]

They should've made the snowballs scale in damage depending on which class you're using

[shy crown]

Why is it such a hard concept to grasp that you can pick up the statue and take it somewhere same to res 😩

[karmic valley]

Yes and this event was almost a year ago duh

[brittle jasper]

i play rdr2 at 1440p TAA 100% looks okay

[tulip hollow]

tbf dlss perf mode runs at that res at 1080p and its still very good with excusable ghosting on outlines

[cerulean frost]

slower fire rate bigger snowball

[lethal hound]

1650 sucks in general but it's good enough to keep up 😃

[wind tinsel]

dont forget the rare occasion medium demat with 10k+ combat and 0 obj

[brittle jasper]

its really not

[forest saddle]

i see

[tulip hollow]

have heavy hold a big ass snowball with both hands

[lethal hound]

I don't play the title you're thinking of

[brittle jasper]

as much as i love 1650 and have spent time with its about time to let it rest

[true pike]

let the damage be constant and have the attack speed scale

[zealous marten]

Looking at the numbers all snowballs deal 125 regardless of class, which means light dies to 1 snowball + meele

[lethal hound]

I play fps games they don't need anything more than 4gb Vram

[brittle jasper]

even the finals on 1650 is borderline unplayable

[versed sail]

Or 1 headshot which is satisfying

[tulip hollow]

comp fps games sure

[zealous marten]

Takes 2 snowball to kill medium, and 3 to kill a heavy
So if you have 2 players that basically have same skill level, heavy always wins

[lethal hound]

It is not unplayable i play this game 400 hrs in

[runic inlet]

im on a GTX 1650 and its fine

[zealous marten]

Not to mention the post-buff mesh shield they gave heavy. Which just soaks in damage while your team deals free

Which has 800 health

[brittle jasper]

my friend gets like 55-60 fps on 1650

[tulip hollow]

game is cpu bound anyway youre bound to get a bigger perf leap by upgraded that

[runic inlet]

whats his CPU then?

[inland crest]

Not if your GPU is on the lower end

[lethal hound]

Exactly 💯

[tulip hollow]

as long as your frametimes are nice and flat even 60 fps feels nice

[brittle jasper]

i5 10th gen i think

[true pike]

my friend on his 2060s keeps having the game crash on him

guys why cant my 2600x 1050ti run the game on ultra setting 🥺

[runic inlet]

cant tell if thats better or worse than the ryzen 5 3600

[cerulean frost]

I'm still happy with my rtx 3050 🔥

[forest saddle]

the game's pretty optimised, man. my cousin can play on his 5600g, no gpu.

[tulip hollow]

embark does some ue5 black magic on their games

[zealous marten]

headshot is def satisfying but wich they made the snowball sound a bit more oomph

[brittle jasper]

the game is NOT optimised

any unreal engine title is not optimised except arc raiders prove me wrong

[covert flax]

"how can I overthink the fun out of this non-serious jolly LTM"

[cerulean frost]

apart from some rare game freezes it's really smooth

[zealous marten]

Also have the christmas music blasting within the mode because just sounds of snowball hitting in a a supposedly "For fun" chrsitmas mode just lacks soul

[true pike]

fortnite

[brittle jasper]

on performance mode sure

[hoary void]

I barely get any more frames on arc and that's cause the game doesn't have dynamic destruction.

[true pike]

roblox

[tulip hollow]

unironically. i love fortnite and how it runs on anything in the past 10 years

[wind tinsel]

is fps chess an unreal engine game i forgo

[zealous marten]

The issue I'm addressing is what makes the mode not-fun especially when playing medium.
Atleast light has a some movement speed, but heavies are just unbalanced in the mode

[covert flax]

let me guess, the new LTM is just one-to-one to the last year's one?

[true pike]

deep rock galactic

[cerulean frost]

fortnite and minecraft are the worst optimised games ever imo

[brittle jasper]

fair

[tulip hollow]

thats ue4

[versed sail]

Yeah basically

[zealous marten]

The game mode would've been MUCH more fun if they just made it all single class like they did with previous 2 event modes

[brittle jasper]

you know what else is actually optimised asf? battlefield 6.

[true pike]

he said any unreal engine title

[covert flax]

not even a reskin like heavy hitters-heaven hitters?

[tulip hollow]

ok fair

[brittle jasper]

you guys are comparing 19s graphics to lumen and ray tracing

[covert flax]

I LOVE BRINGING BACK OLD CONTENT!!!!!!!!!

[rancid schooner]

We're basically in maintenance mode lol

[tulip hollow]

computers are weird because i get worse perf on bf6 than the average point break match

[covert flax]

at least the rewards are new
I guess

[zealous marten]

Also they have christmas sweaters in the contracts, why not have all the charcters wear the sweaters, instead of just having one default skin that's not even customized to mode?

[versed sail]

The mode is really fun tbh, I already did the first set of challenges

[runic inlet]

dont worry, i had like 30-40 FPS on BF6
only reason i can tolerate that is because i own and play a PS3

[brittle jasper]

oh lord

[wind tinsel]

would this be a good time to check our drivers and chipset softwares

[zealous marten]

Like just seeing this in the lobby just takes out the festivities in a christmas gamemode

[brittle jasper]

having a good pc in this shortage feels like 2008 bitcoin

[zealous marten]

They seriously need to put in a playtest team of actual players or content creators with NDA,
So these things can be improved before release like PBE server in League, but smaller

[runic inlet]

to be fair it isnt bad once your used to the frame rate

red faction guerrilla went under 20 FPS when there was destruction anyway (sometimes)

[exotic wyvern]

Embark is lazy don’t u know by now?

[lethal hound]

Idc about those unless i play story games, i enjoy the finals even in 60fps, as long as I'm having fun no settings matter to me, as long as I'm queing with 2 other people the settings don't matter. It's that simple

[zealous marten]

Like you literally have a new sweater embark, all you needed to do was put it on

[abstract juniper]

why so many heal ball skins

[lethal hound]

I know they "enhance" your visual experience but idc when I can't afford it

[brittle jasper]

i never said you need more than 60fps to enjoy the game, i said "i" cant play with 55-65fps

[tulip hollow]

id argue for visibility reasons but just remembered we have enemy outlines

[abstract juniper]

how about 66-75 fps

[versed sail]

Tbh it is weird everyone looks the same when most ltm have a red vs blue theme

[brittle jasper]

even with a good enough pc i play the finals at the lowest settings with 100% textures so i can squeeze every bit of the fps

[lethal hound]

Because you've had the taste of "extra" right, going back to zero sounds foul anyways

[zealous marten]

I personally am happy with a healball skin for someone that mostly only spends money on BP, and twitch drops for skins.

Since I missed chuck the ball, I'm super happy they released another free healball skin :))

I'm going to call it Frosty

[lethal hound]

😂

[zealous marten]

Exactly. Atleast could've had it different color or something

Or just let people use their skin

[compact pumice]

frags are actually so good now wtf

[opaque belfry]

more fps = more fun

[brittle jasper]

anything after 70 is good enough for me honestly

[opaque umbra]

Did they change anything?

[brittle jasper]

60fps on controller feels smooth asf tho

[lethal hound]

On a gtx 1650 it's not possible 😔

[compact pumice]

buffed the damage and radius and reduced the cooldown

[abstract juniper]

i promise you'll never be able to tell the difference between 60 and 70 fps without slowing it down bro

[brittle jasper]

60fps on kbm feels so choppy

[zealous marten]

Oh yeah, frag grenade got double buff.

1. They increased the radius of the frag explosion.
2. Now Goo takes more damage from explosions : 1 Frag = Destroys Goo

[wind tinsel]

maybe the reason this update was server sided because the devs wanted to celebrate christmas or something but not before doing a lil something for us so they quickly put the gamemode together before clocking out idk its just speculation.

if it was a full fledged update then im sure that gamemode thing would look a lot better

[opaque umbra]

Ohh yeah still no place in loadout

[compact pumice]

21:12 says otherwise

[brittle jasper]

obv the game never stays at 70 forever

[lethal hound]

Fried rice anybody? I'm chopping onion rn

[versed sail]

I got a monitor that lets me get 120 fps on my Xbox and the animation looks so much better

[shy crown]

MMMM damn that's a clean machine

[opaque umbra]

21 very low for 3 rounds

[zealous marten]

Not really, people were taking Pyro grenades in pro scrims and some matches in order to counter Goo,
Since goo was everywhere in pro scene. But since frag now 1 shots goo, and destroys it faster, people will pick it up way more than before.

[brittle jasper]

oh yea 100% once you go high fps theres no coming back

[compact pumice]

yeah cuz', you aint Lasagna pipe down

unless you can pull out that ruby badge, cool it

[brittle jasper]

ive had the taste of an intel dual core no gpu too, i've gradually made my way up here and you will too.

[zealous marten]

Especially since gateway and glitch grenade got nerfed, the options have more variables now

[opaque umbra]

Well im in their club n ruby 2seasons so ye right

[zealous marten]

Although glitch will still be absolutely necessary especially after mesh buff and winch nerf

[distant mauve]

Finished a point break game with 20 revives wtf

[zealous marten]

Not sure about the gateway though the extra -20 meters is actually quite restricting in a lot of areas

[compact pumice]

just because youre in their team doesnt mean you were in TGM, hush now

[true pike]

take a look at the virtual extension

[rancid schooner]

SKULL is good I've had him in my team several times.

Though I will forever remember that time he wiped when we could have won and griefed out the best team. 👁️

[compact pumice]

not everybody plays comp, you dont need to flex, nobody is impressed by that shit

[covert flax]

I gotta give it a try once I get back to my apartment

[zealous marten]

Nah I'm better than both of you. My dad works for nintendo.
He can testify smh these ruby noobs

[opaque umbra]

Lol didnt say that

[zealous marten]

All I'm saying is : LET ME USE MY SANTA SKIN IN THE MODE EMBARK

[compact pumice]

All I did was make a comment about how frags are good now, you don't need to act all high and mighty about kill counts

[lethal hound]

You'll get your hands on 6090 one day too, it will be my 6090 😆🤭

[opaque umbra]

Thx but I don’t rly remember we playedyoure from NA so if we played together thats for sure on ranked I play both eu /na rank

[rancid schooner]

Ranked NA yeah.
And you're a Light.

[compact pumice]

imagine griefing, BTFO

[opaque umbra]

Who did I greif

[brittle jasper]

what are you on mate

[lethal hound]

I'm on stage 39 rn, can't wait to unlock this skin

[opaque umbra]

Correct

[compact pumice]

oh he's a light main? now I'm even less impressed

[tulip hollow]

i think hes talking about eventually hell have a 6090 through secondhand means

[lethal hound]

I hope i get my hands on 6090 😔

[compact pumice]

"guys I'm so good, look at how I crutch the meta"

[lethal hound]

Engimo 40th

[shy crown]

It's just an all black gun dawg

[zealous marten]

You know what would've been a wayyyyy better option for loadouts in the new mode for heavy :

Mesh -> Winch
Barricade -> Healing Orb, but make it deal damage when thrown like in Heaven & Hell with the new frosty head skin

[true pike]

brooo appreciate the DESIGN of it

[opaque umbra]

Thsts not me I play db im bad with arn

[lethal hound]

I'm one stage behind, i mean only one left to go

[compact pumice]

db is literally the easiest light gun 😭

[zealous marten]

Medium :

Demat -> Healbeam

So that you actually have a reason to use it

[wild acorn]

Happy Holiday everyone

Last night’s outage was nuts, it felt like half the gaming world broke at once across PC and console. Epic had major problems (Fortnite, Rocket League, etc), Steam was also having major issues, and a bunch of other titles were caught up too (ARC Raiders, Ready or Not, The Finals, Marvel Rivals, etc). AWS publicly said it wasn’t an AWS outage and hinted it was “elsewhere on the internet,” but there still hasn’t been a clear public root-cause write-up from anyone.

Hoping someone finds an official/credible explanation instead of this getting swept under the rug.

[rancid schooner]

I swear you were an ARN player I guess I have dementia.
Probably another European.

[compact pumice]

congrats, you can w key and left click twice, im so impressed

[opaque umbra]

Oh yeah go high rank play db see if its easy lmao why arent u ruby yet?

[compact pumice]

already told you i dont play ranked because I have better shit to do than sweat my life away

[opaque umbra]

Theres 3 skulls

[compact pumice]

https://tenor.com/view/touching-grass-touch-gif-21219969

[rancid schooner]

True.

[zealous marten]

I mean it's a super easy explanation if you just take second to look at the timing and logic

Christmas Eve -> Last minute buying games as gifts -> Server overload

[covert flax]

are we deadass we need balance changes in a "for fun" LTM

[opaque umbra]

Yeah exactly and not everyone have perfect aim db aint easy for everyone lmao theres shit players with it that even miss shots on someone standing still

[shy crown]

Imo top tier virtual extension is the guns with a bit of color to them like like the AK, Model, Repeater, Double Barrel, Lewis, etc

[compact pumice]

anyone with more than half a brain can get a kill with db

[opaque umbra]

In gold lobby sure

[covert flax]

bold of you to assume anyone in this game has even quarter of a brain.

[tulip hollow]

db is so weird to me. the shot timing and kickback on fire i can just never get used to

[sharp plaza]

was there new skins released with this update? Can someone screenshot I dont have access to a pc

[opaque umbra]

Go try higher rank dia/ruby u wont get near them w no iq

[rancid schooner]

SH1900 is like easy to use but if you're against some high rank that knows how to make it even better, it becomes hell.

[opaque umbra]

Its not that easy for everyone thats what I meant yeah

[covert flax]

obviously
skins every week
actual content, NEVER

[tulip hollow]

we got loooong p90

[shy crown]

Db is still viable at higher level play you do need to play smarter with it the higher up you go. You don't really see it in tournaments because those guys can beam you with 75% headshots and get better ttk at twice the range, but you can absolutely still use this thing all the way up to emerald.

[covert flax]

P90 the looong way

we need a V9S with a comically long silencer

[compact pumice]

guys im ruby. im ruby guys. hey did you know that im ruby? i'm ruby. did i tell you that im ruby yet?

[opaque umbra]

Thats what I meant I use it in ruby nor emerald its even harder to play with at that high rank for some ppl its not easy

[lunar cairn]

The only time DB gets extremely annoying is when they have invis. Cuz most ppl cant make sense of having to press one button to invis, then two more buttons to shoot and kill a whole med.
u cant blame them

[opaque umbra]

Jealous looser

[compact pumice]

jealous? lmfao

[shy crown]

Comparatively speaking though db is really easy to use. It has a built in reminder to be evasive in it needing to reload after your shots. And it requires 1/5th the aim of lights other weapons.

[covert flax]

DB feels like cheating because wdym it can two tap a heavy

[sharp plaza]

show me the loot

[compact pumice]

why would i be jealous of somebody who spends their entire life behind a computer screen

[sharp plaza]

what it look like

[tulip hollow]

its long, i dont got image perms cant show it lol

[shy crown]

Optimally playing db would be drastically easier than most of lights other weapons, but would be less effective.

[opaque umbra]

First u flex with 21 kills 3rounds i said its low then u started behave like a kid lol

[covert flax]

https://www.reachthefinals.com/patchnotes/920

[velvet aspen]

DB is more of a annoyance. Two shotting every class is pretty insane but you get blasted if the enemy team is decent.

[lunar cairn]

"bUt LiGHt HaVE lOWesT heAltH" is the only argument keeping embark from nerfing the shit out of db

[sharp plaza]

extended barrel from siege🥶

[runic inlet]

i would find whoever does that and steal their computer's RAM as a heavy

[compact pumice]

wasnt a flex, was simply showing you that frag isnt as bad as you said

but go off

[zealous marten]

Well ofc they're not going to make any patches, and doesn't really make sense to do so at the end of the year. But it's important to discuss what works and what makes the mode "Not Fun". Especially when it's a returning mode and for future mode references.

That's the whole point of discussion or game chats to exist to begin with. Otherwise they'll make the same mistake over and over.

[sharp plaza]

i like that bow and dress

[tulip hollow]

its a "your motherfucking life ends 5 minutes from now" situation since its just so predictable hearing that cloak

[opaque umbra]

Well u said u arent lasagna and shi started talking shi lol

[shy crown]

Frag is actually pretty good as an alternative to goo on demat class. Which, to be fair, is suboptimal when heal beam exists.

[forest saddle]

DB is not nice

[zealous marten]

Atm played 5 matches so far. Overwhelming amount of heavies, and around 1/3rd light players.
Barely any medium

[opaque umbra]

I didnt say its bad i said no place in my loadout (mine)

[lunar cairn]

anyone notice theyre slowly bringing "revealing" skins in the game. first it was opsuze crop top skin now its the purple skirt

[covert flax]

light can two tap a heavy (highest health in the game btw) = cool, awesome, wholesome, epic, balanced, even

heavy can two tap a light (lowest health in the game btw) = unbalanced, horrible, stupid, rigged, dead game

[zealous marten]

Just stat wise putting in the exact 125 damage weapon into all 3 classes. The one with the highest healthpool is obviously going to win if there's 100 matches

[rancid schooner]

I'd take an overwhelming amount of heavies tbh.. I haven't really played much this season bc every game was like 7 lights.

[abstract juniper]

ur the only person of all time that has thought about it this deep

[shy crown]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/327601708450709504/1453084480544702639/image.png?ex=694e2421&is=694cd2a1&hm=7a6e422023ac8ce85ed4ca5160e1fd27c86c14ef40595fc1d9085255c4b9f2ec&

[lunar cairn]

classic example of video game double standards

[compact pumice]

you said "in loadout" not "my loadout"

[velvet aspen]

Gotta appeal to the gooners. Look at Zenless Zone Zero, it's still going steady because of them.

[naive herald]

Merry Christmas,and enjoy getting rushed by 3 heavys !

[lunar cairn]

im the only person that has talked about it but we all know weve given thought at least once

[opaque umbra]

I meant mine its so obvious I meant mine tf lol

[compact pumice]

it was not to me

[tulip hollow]

"i guess bro" reaction image

[opaque umbra]

No 🧠 then?

[shy crown]

How to play light: appear behind your enemies while they're busy.
Dont get hit.

Congrats u can play light

[runic inlet]

i mean it isnt too revealing so ig im fine with it

[compact pumice]

no im just autistic, say what you mean

[opaque umbra]

Okay mb

[compact pumice]

dont have to insult my intelligence

[covert flax]

tbh, if DB was nerfed, it would be useless

but the problem is, it shouldn't be too powerful, "hold W and press M1 for instagib" shouldn't be a viable strategy in any game, EVER

[abstract juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/i-guess-bro-i-guess-bro-bro-what-whatever-you-say-gif-16572066316579867256

[gentle pier]

Ok snowball blitz: Fun

Event setup: meh

Could have done it like halloween only instead of pumpkins we get to open a present under the christmas tree each day

Just my opinion tho

[abstract juniper]

i promise noone has thought about how revealing cosmetics are in the finals bro 😭

[lunar cairn]

this kind of appealing is a bad strategy not gonna lie

[shy crown]

Its really not. The viable strategy is to pounce on busy opps. W+M1 towards them in the open just gets you killed

[sharp plaza]

W for us guuners

[lunar cairn]

good lets have it stay that way forever or sum

[abstract juniper]

whoever goons to the finals gotta seriously reconsider their decisions in life as a whole

[rancid schooner]

Should have been the wheel. The daily pumpkin was boring.

[gentle pier]

The wheel was ass

[covert flax]

hear me out
Q + W + M1 (invis moment)

[rancid schooner]

Gambling is fun when it's free lol

[shy crown]

Daily pumpkin drastically superior.

[lunar cairn]

https://tenor.com/view/thinking-lost-new-york-sigh-alone-gif-24949861

[velvet aspen]

Imo, there's too many skins and outfits already for it to be an actual problem for a few seasons.

[shy crown]

This works on blind and deaf gamers (Not one or the other blind AND deaf)

[lunar cairn]

i mean im not complaining i just dont want the game to become like fortnite where they have too many crop top skin every goddamn season

[forest saddle]

man, i hope this doesnt become like marvel rivals

[gentle pier]

Exactly

[lunar cairn]

same one marvel-rival like game (marvel rivals itself) is enough in this market

[gentle pier]

So daily christmas present would have been nice

[shy crown]

Why do you care what other gamers put on their virtual barbie

[zealous marten]

The Ospuze CL-40 event and the heaven and hell event was actually super fun, had skill ceiling, and even playground compared to this mode

[compact pumice]

skirts dont have to fall into the g**ner category

[orchid escarp]

its kinda weird wouldve been cooler if it was a supressor

[velvet aspen]

Twink death in a nutshell

[zealous marten]

So close to lightning ARN skin 😩

[compact pumice]

twink death isnt real, its just cope from homophobes

look up Mana-sama, hes almost 60

[lunar cairn]

idc but theres this point where one type of cosmetic becomes overkill and other types get forgotten. rn in fortnite more than half female skins have some kinda crop top, and ppl who dont want that get cut out with less options

basically there should be a balance

[tulip hollow]

average goth scottish

[compact pumice]

or really any vkei star, theyre almost all in their 30s

[velvet aspen]

Literally the only exception though 👀 👀

[zealous marten]

Think it would've been cooler if the lightning moved instead of the glow fluctuating like the charm that comes with it. But still goat skin

[compact pumice]

I'm german-irish

[shy crown]

Bro you can pick any cosmetic you want why are you so focused on other people picking crop tops.

[true pike]

we shoulda got one of these in sour core flavor if we bought one of the 24 packs

[lethal hound]

I thought it had a flow

[true pike]

bro im so smart that would be BALLER

[compact pumice]

if you actually care about your face and hair its a non issue

[lunar cairn]

when did i ever comment abt ppl picking crop tops what u on about mr detective

[shy crown]

This has to be bait lmao

[zealous marten]

Out-of-game merch exclusive cosmetic does sound dope, although most people won't be able to buy it.

But it'll become an issue of scalpers reselling codes if things like that existed

[rancid schooner]

As a girl it's nice to have clothes that actually look like girl clothes now tho.. leggings under every skirt and pair of shorts was overkill and lasted like 2 years lol

[true pike]

scalpers would have hella cans

[tall verge]

ospuze has the best weapon skins but that last outfit is dogwater concentrate

[zealous marten]

It has very light movement back and forth, but not actual movement.
what does change is the glow effect fluctuating, and there's also a static effect

[lunar cairn]

read everything the person said before getting raged. i commented on how they started to bring more "revealing" skins, not that ppl shouldnt buy them, or should buy them. but if u want to rage go on ur choice

[compact pumice]

Boogie from JILUKA is almost 30

[muted cargo]

Not having our own character skins in the LTM sad

[lunar cairn]

@shy crown it was this message lmao did u even bother before yapping

[velvet aspen]

he find as hell

[zealous marten]

Think the top piece is not that bad, and the gloves is actually sick.

But overall yeah it kind of lacks. But most sponsor outfits aren't really that great

[shy crown]

The bait is so obvious now. Yikes.

[muted cargo]

kinda hot tbh, especially with that beard haha

[zealous marten]

They just have good pieces within the set here and there for most sponsor outfits

[velvet aspen]

He can groom me. (I'm 25.)

[compact pumice]

Ralph Macchio is 62

[tall verge]

the whole thing makes my character look like a cheap Thai hooker

[lunar cairn]

its not nice to bait someone then blame it on that person. I shouldnt talk to a victim blamer. have a day mate

[zealous marten]

Like this new volpe top is REALLY good

[shy crown]

Yikesssss

[covert flax]

wouldn't make sense because the sound should be suppressed at that point

[zealous marten]

And half of the reason lots of people got trentila was for this gas mask

[lunar cairn]

Omd so much low iq ragebait

[tall verge]

irish ahh fit

[compact pumice]

kilts are not skirts

[orchid escarp]

dude 😭

[velvet aspen]

He wasn't a twink though. 👀

[covert flax]

[tall verge]

I hate this skin with a passion

[compact pumice]

tell any irishman a skirt is a kilt and you will have a wired jaw

[shy crown]

I wish this thing had good iron sights, because it looks so bad with a red dot 😭

[zealous marten]

Wish isuelt-T tier 2 actually gave us proper korean padding jacket instead of this

[orchid escarp]

the sights look so bad 😭

[zealous marten]

Nice :))

[tall verge]

the whole thing covers half of ur screen

[wide swallow]

some how V9S animation bug give you visual advantage

[lunar cairn]

Oh yeahh i forgot about fashion trends 🤦 lol

[runic inlet]

i instantly thought of the ray gun from CoD zombies when i read the text

[orchid escarp]

yeah i call it raygun specifically to reference cod

[runic inlet]

why didnt they make it that, or at least similar to that
i dunno

[compact pumice]

"twink death" is literally just cope from fragile men who feel emasculated by lookin a man in a skirt, NEW FLASH, EVERYBODY LOOKS OLD WHEN THEY GET OLD, ITS CALLED GETTING OLD

[shy crown]

I know bringing up call of duty is like saying hail satan in service but, it would've been a lot better if they had irons like the ray gun from cod on the finals raygun

[orchid escarp]

obvious reasons 👀

[zealous marten]

NGL this volpe LH1 is actually really clean

[golden oracle]

would be pay to win or pay to lose

[orchid escarp]

yea

[compact pumice]

that is actually clean as hell, im sad i missed it

[zealous marten]

Too bad the gun is hot ass to control

[lunar cairn]

ugliest skin to date icl the metallic look just feels old for some reason

[velvet aspen]

Twink death means losing your twinkness from age in my book.

[covert flax]

they can't really add different skin-specific sights

[golden oracle]

its still here

[zealous marten]

It's still available rn until end of the season

[thin wharf]

I prefer the pistol of the lh1

[shy crown]

Bro every skin has built in irons. You may not kno this but the snub nose revolvers have better irons than default

[stuck iron]

Not fond of snowball blitz forcing a default appearance, was going to wear the hoodie I got from It last year. 🙁

[covert flax]

oh right

[orchid escarp]

i never rlly like the lh1 ughh the recoil

[cedar flare]

Merry Christmas, gamers and Emma frost thicc thighs lovers

[tulip hollow]

except p90. god why

[thin wharf]

Me neither

[rancid schooner]

https://tenor.com/view/zoolander-forbidden-fruit-mugatu-must-be-tasted-gif-1386037298771066285

[orchid escarp]

it feels good to shoot but that recoil hurts

[shy crown]

I like P90's scope, but, I'm a chevron apologist.

[thin wharf]

I think P90 is my favourite gun in the game lowkey, with heal beam, perfect medic

[tulip hollow]

sound allowance??????????????????????????

[shy crown]

Ever since I learned how to rangefind without zeroing with the acog in pubg I have been a chevron apologist heh

[velvet aspen]

Can we make red dot even bigger? Reticle is honestly too small.

[abstract juniper]

so you dont damage your hearing

[zealous marten]

P90 definitely works well with healbeam.
Since the healbeam range cut off and P90's optimal range is the same

[cedar flare]

Big ass dot in the center for the buff

[tulip hollow]

i always thought its about volume. didnt think how long also mattered

[orchid escarp]

p90 is def the best support weapon

[shy crown]

Acog sights are just cool like that

[compact pumice]

thats okay, I'll just pull a Björn Andrésen

[glossy rune]

source?

[abstract juniper]

its about both

[velvet aspen]

Twink death hit him hard. His past is so sad though.

[orchid escarp]

thats not the same guy bro

[cedar flare]

That powershit contract still there? Bruh 😭

[shy crown]

That's how acog's work irl. That's why they have the lines the way they do

[empty salmon]

Is the finals have no idea about twitch drops? Cause we already get that skins why they did it again ?

[zealous marten]

The last page just unlocked today

[covert flax]

P90 is like the "made the enemy one tap for you" weapon

[glossy rune]

aha... but what about tf?

[orchid escarp]

mgl feels like that to me

[velvet aspen]

Flame too

[shy crown]

Guns are hitscan it doesn't matter lol, I still just like the chevron

[covert flax]

mgl is like "CL-40 but you don't küs or get a kill on close enemies, ever"

[shy crown]

Why charge and slam is mandatory on mgl

[glossy rune]

mgl is like cl40 but useless

[shy crown]

Goo might work too if your team is on the horn, you can permagoo someone while you wait for assistance lol

[tulip hollow]

dont let those rabid mgl enjoyers catch you

[cedar flare]

Yeah I saw it, but man that powershit contract brings me aids

[abstract juniper]

give sniper ironsights asap

[orchid escarp]

did you mean ks

[cedar flare]

It's useless cuz u don't know how to use it. Otherwise it's very underrated

[tulip hollow]

this would be so cool

[glossy rune]

100%! it is indeed a case of skill issue

[night rapids]

Anyone tryna play ranked been getting som of the worst teammates in solo queue

[covert flax]

you have not seen a mgl fivestack in TDM.

[zealous marten]

it's super easy though.

Just grab cloak with doublebarrel. Sit on platform until someone gets on in and kill them

[true pike]

which class u play

[orchid escarp]

mgl is awesome , just cuz a weapon isnt good at offense doesnt mean its bad

[shy crown]

Honestly there's no good reason not to. But, I'm going to be honest with you friend. The zoom in is an objective advantage, it widens your margin of error drastically. You're just not used to it.

[night rapids]

Light

[kindred lynx]

It's def the weapon that fucks my spear build the most along side gattlin

[true pike]

im lowkey buns at h n m so nvm

[glossy rune]

i hope i never do. but please, how is it superior to fivestack cl40?

[zealous marten]

Cocoa emote lets gooo

I should go buy some coco today

[orchid escarp]

we need some good defense/stalling weapons from time to time

👀

[zealous marten]

Oh damn it's frozen lol.

Nice emote embark

[true pike]

bro if only smoke thermal was still a thing so we could run LLL all with smoke thermal dagger 😩

[cedar flare]

Yeah, I also was getting shitted on when I tried it first time. Then it clicked that it's a weapon that requires a bit of brains and skill to use

[orchid escarp]

is that apart of the animation lol

[zealous marten]

Its the new event animation

[empty salmon]

Bro we already have Calvin the cube why they drop it again?

[fiery ore]

mgl is meta

[cedar flare]

I detest light, and I play light with only support like h+ infuser cuz fk u double barrel, u cancerous pos gun. I will use either arn or LH1

[zealous marten]

You can do the same strat with the dagger

[pine sage]

When we gonna get thermal vision it's been 2 seasons

[cedar flare]

I ain't got the mental fortitude for that man, respect to the dagger players honestly they hav it tuff, tho don't ask me to help u say to buff it.

[tulip hollow]

its getting the recon sense rework

[abstract juniper]

makes quickscopes harder

[smoky kestrel]

You learn something new everyday

[true pike]

i really liked using thermal on kyoto with arn

[pine sage]

Yeah but they are taking too long it's just a gadget

[cedar flare]

Being a thicc female heavy cosplaying as a ninja hardlight artillery cannon with the mgl will never not be fun

[shy crown]

It would be the same. And it still gives you a wider margin of error for hardscopes.

[pine sage]

I miss thermal and smoke with dagger it was hella funny

[heavy jay]

man snowball blitz I was going to grind the hell out of snowball blitz but it's only worth 1/10th of the cash now, feels pointless

[smoky kestrel]

Yes embark I know I didnt hit D4 btw

[shy crown]

Difference between finals and cod quickscoping is that your bloom doesn't linearly go down as you scope it, it instantly turns pinpoint once you see the crosshairs

[abstract juniper]

no
higher zoom scopes take longer to ads
and if you're offtarget its easier to make micro adjustments when you're not as zoomed in

[shy crown]

All sights have same ads time in the finals.

And, false. Having more zoom = wider margin of error. Your micro adjustments become easier.

Which boils down to my point of, the zoom is an objective benefit, it just takes practice to get used to it.

[cedar flare]

I didn't even know I hit silver 😂 🥲

[zealous marten]

This reminds of me those popsicles in plastic tubes

Mr.Freezies or something it was called

[edgy brook]

why did they remove custom contestants for snowball blitz?

[zealous marten]

Okay this nail paint is actually quite nice

[zealous marten]

They do it for all event modes, but they should've just kept it on if they weren't going to add in the christmas sweater from the event into it

[smoky kestrel]

Seasonal stuff can come back. No guarantee on what, but it can.

I think they were semi-custom last year

but apparently now they are all default skins?

[arctic apex]

Sometimes I play repeater and hit all my shots and sometimes I play repeater and hit 4 maybe 6 shots

[arctic apex]

They were fully custom last time

[zealous marten]

??? what the fk, I got my last win the contract didn't finish
It bugged out

[tulip hollow]

is that oscar

[zealous marten]

Oh nice new rpg skin, this wasn't in the trailer

Sparky headband and mask

[smoky kestrel]

I already got it last year, the effects are fuckin dope!

[versed ore]

i find it crazy how there's like 2 auras that you can buy with multibucks.

[zealous marten]

Oh didn't know it had custom effects

[smoky kestrel]

aaand we're done with bp!

[rancid schooner]

Yes.

[covert flax]

same from last year

[zealous marten]

It's a new thing they added in S7, and only made it seperate item in S8. They'll prob add more in the future.

[tall verge]

least tactical tactical pdw I've ever seen

[smoky kestrel]

It has actual pretty Firework VFX!

Colors are RNG

[versed ore]

still, kinda absurd that they added earrings and stuff without adding new auras (besides ultimate bp stuff but that's a standard at this point.) also esports auras don't count because they're boring!!! give me a cherry blossom or heart aura!!!

Just look at the Eclipse Shade M11

[smoky kestrel]

I cannot play without this thing anymore

[zealous marten]

dont diss my best skin in the game

[smoky kestrel]

this is probably neither tactical nor does it make sense but I like my version more

[covert flax]

tactical and modified lightweight-chassis skinline
looks inside
unconventional straps on a base model with an un-tactical barrel mod

[tall verge]

at least this makes a bit of sense the p90 getting a longer barrel just defeats the whole purpose of it's existence

[cerulean stratus]

I'm tired of hitting 3rd place and gettine like +44

[smoky kestrel]

This looks dope

[zealous marten]

embark def cooked wit hthis season's bp

[wooden kestrel]

So, did the chaos from last night settle down. Merry Christmas y’all I probably won’t be here long

[covert flax]

square suppressor and removed the thingy under the barrel

[cerulean stratus]

normally i kinda hate when games sellout to china and start flooding the game with far east cosmetics, but this BP kicks ass

[covert flax]

at least we don't get the actual chinese cosmetics

[wooden kestrel]

And china don’t even play this version of the game 😭

Disappointing that snowball event can't use my own skins like come on at least give us all a Christmas fit like they done with previous game modes

Also is it only in 1 map ???!

I don't remember how account level worked back in the day but you got a lot less xp, when I got back into the game I was level 8 with like 1k kills

He wasn't bad at the game, he got 18 kills and 2 deaths.
Im just finding it really sus how im finding people who are low level and in the thousands of kills.

But then a lvl 1 supporter background really threw me off because this persons playing for ages, they must be really high level with this many kills!

I am trying to buy the xmas barricade, and I have the money for it, but it keeps saying purchase cannot be completed. I have 750vbucks and it cost 600?

[lethal hound]

dewd, snowball blitz have a contract, instead of a wheel

[zealous marten]

Thanks

Had to get 13 kills, 8 assist, 4 deaths to finally win 3rd game holy sht

This mode balance sucks massive fucking balls

remove heavies from this mode I swear to god

[pine sage]

The contracts isnt that hard but you need to play like 7 games or more and ngl it's not funny I mean it's too easy to hit

[harsh dome]

Did they fix the servers

[pine sage]

I played 3 games only and won all of them

[wooden kestrel]

Vbucks 😭

[zealous marten]

I'm talking about the game class balance

[pine sage]

No need to ask bro the servers won't be fixed it's finals after all

[zealous marten]

What were they thinking giving heavy mesh shield in this mode, and having all snowballs deals 125 for all classes

[wooden kestrel]

Idk, I guess I’ll be running heavy

[pine sage]

Wait , so you can one shot a light ???

[harsh dome]

😂 true true

[zealous marten]

yes, 1 snowball + meele kills light.
2 snowball for medium, 3 snowball for heavy

Snowball to head 1 shots light.

[quartz temple]

Idk why but snowball blitz feels underwhelming and very slow compared to any other LTM or normal mode

[pine sage]

Thats not fair tbh everyone should have the same health

Plus light thermal bore and medium jumpad ain't useful in this mode

[zealous marten]

1. There's no audio except just you running around and throwing snowball for a holiday gamemode, when they have made a holiday ost they could use.

2. Classes are unbalanced, especially there is zero reason to use medium.

Light's mobility and hitbox actually make it pretty good, but stat wise heavy outclasses all due to taking 3 shots to die compared to all other classes AND having 800 health mesh shield.

3. There's no event-mode skins within the game and just forces everyone into basic default noob skin which makes it feel bland even more, when they in fact have a christmas sweater in the event contracts.

[forest saddle]

remove snowball blitz, bring back TA

[limpid comet]

i'm gonna be honest, I've barely watched streams for the drops.

just open it and leave it on in the background.

[compact pumice]

do you need a stepstool for that REACH?

[bronze shale]

Yeah, i know, but i didnt know you specifically meant free items

[covert flax]

imagine a healing emitter skin that's just a little snowglobe with three tiny mediums inside of it with heal beams

[zealous marten]

True, but that would be harder to make.

Atleast the blue healing rope matches the snow theme

[pine sage]

I don't think it will count will it ?

[covert flax]

you mean healing tether?

[zealous marten]

That'd be funny

[compact pumice]

literally

[versed ore]

twitch can be fussy but for me if I don't alt tab out of it, it'll work. I just have it muted in the tab too, since having the stream muted and unfocused doesn't count as watching it.

[compact pumice]

like fam do you bring a ladder to the grocery store so you can REACH the top shelf?

[bronze shale]

Looks like someone's been naughty

To the light pits with you

Never play medium, always pick either heavy or light.

Statistcally play heavy, but if you're cracked at aim and movement play light for the new game mode

[zealous marten]

Happy Halloween

Dumb question but what is the headshot multiplier for snowballs

[bronze shale]

All sniper as well 😭

[iron tapir]

where is cm marshall what did u do to him

[zealous marten]

It's pretty high, body shot + headshot on heavy put it at 15 health

[iron tapir]

i'm still convinced cm marshall isnt actually marshall

Looks like that 1 taxidermy lion

[compact pumice]

i have to play powershift to get the LH1 skin? guess im not getting it

[zealous marten]

each shot is 125

So 350 heavy health - > 225 - 15 = 215 % 125 = 1.72

So basically 1.7x multiplier for headshot

its ok, dont worry about it, lots of good players have bad kds, i just havent met any yet

[wet kelp]

Sure

[zealous marten]

Damn so much more deaths over kills.

My KDA isn't that great either but atleast its not in negatives

Despite most of my games being troll builds

[cinder quiver]

okay

[bronze shale]

Well, someone gotta have a negative k/d for others to have a positive one

Maybe you make up for it in cashout plays, revives or healing

But as long as you have fun, that doesnt matter anyways

[zealous marten]

The red glove is from S7 Bonus page

[wooden kestrel]

I’m 85% done with the cube twitch thing I just haven’t opened google and let it play in th background, I don’t watch streams so I just mute and minimize the window and leave it, I just wanted the multipad skin

[lethal hound]

v bucks?

[zealous marten]

If you completely mute it sometimes the ad runs forever or way longer than it should
So I put it at barely 1% volume and do other stuff while it runs in the background

[verbal cobalt]

I have it. xD

[zealous marten]

I just want the lockbolt )): Since I don't have a skin for it

[iron tapir]

my KD isn't actually all that bad if i'm playing ranked and trying, probably like 2kd or something, but most of my game time is me just messing around in casuals and having fun trying out different things

[lethal hound]

i cant even hit them im just bad :<

[wooden kestrel]

Ah, yea it worked fine for me until I left home it quit when my computer went to sleep or half off whatever but idc about the cube tbh, don’t use the grav cube and don’t like the skin very much, my standard is realistic skins or ones that look good enough to be an exception

[stray flume]

it felt nice to won against susbtance abuser double barrel troglodyte

[forest saddle]

chat, healing emitter or anti grav cube?

[sharp plaza]

kd doesnt matter

[stray flume]

anti grav

[pine sage]

Yeah it's strange at the beginning it's hard to hit , that doesn't mean you are bad you js need to play more at this mode

ive gained a new hatred for sledgehammer heavies in point break, because you know they are gonna try to collapse the buildings around the 2nd set of cashouts to make them "harder" to get, completely throw the 1st set, and then lose the 2nd set immediately anyway, thus screwing over their entire team and losing the game!
