Leveling up in vanguard takes so long

[smoky pike]

Some of the attachments are interesting, but also, when I see an MG42 with a foregrip (or other shit like that,) I want to hurt myself.

[fervent rapids]

Time to sweat the mp40 till I unlock loadouts

[high haven]

time to sweat until the game works

[austere sonnet]

Garand with a front grip

[high haven]

can someone ban angra before dice gets any ideas for vanguard?

[austere sonnet]

Belt fed garand

type 5 rifle with drum mag

[high haven]

it would ping after every shot 😄

liberator belt fed

[austere sonnet]

Cod ww1 needs to happen

[scenic tree]

Some of these guns and attachments that I am seeing......lmao. LMAO.

[smoky pike]

.30 carbine STG

[high haven]

i feel super uncomfortable how the player hold the m1a1 as if it's a pssh

[austere sonnet]

You could tell vanguard watched the Star Wars

[high haven]

they prolly were lazy and just used the same animations ;D

haha

[stiff panther]

it is now 1PM

should be able to play for real

[high haven]

time to try

damnit

[austere sonnet]

[stiff panther]

[stiff panther]

let us in

please

[high haven]

by the time we get in, twee will have a flamethrower on his mp40 horse 😦

[scenic tree]

By the time we get to play, the beta will be over.

[fervent rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/charge-attack-battlefield-battlefield1-attack-charge-gif-7279044

Imagine this but with either the MP40 or the Volk as the flame trooper

Volk is a ttk monster

[high haven]

did activision confirm this pc situation or? 😦

[scenic tree]

Nope.

[fervent rapids]

Ok my internet is shit

i got a streak of lag symbols right on a fucking 8 kill streak

then died

i need to sort it out then ill go and play some more vanguard

[high haven]

get cable

[fervent rapids]

Cant in my current house but I will in a new house

[high haven]

🙂

[scenic tree]

Apparently even people who actually pre-ordered the game on BNET can't get in, lol.'

RIP

[stiff panther]

yeah

[fervent rapids]

This house has way too thick walls for cables and stuff

[high haven]

by the time i can play it's gonna be 00:00 am

[scenic tree]

I no longer want to hear the comments from anyone that Vanguard has a playable beta.

[high haven]

so twee is banned, huh?

[fervent rapids]

vanguard is fun

the maps are really good and its graphically good

gunplay and movement are both good as per usual for cod

[scenic tree]

😄

I just saw the dog killstreak teleport glitch.

I am dying of laughter.

Dog straight up teleported to the top of a building.

[high haven]

what happened?

ah xd

it's 20 minutes since official launch. still error

[scenic tree]

Yeah, I am about to just give up on it.

Go take a nap or something.

This is what the latest tweets are on Twitter if you search for "vanguard pc beta" and go to latest, lmao.

[high haven]

!!!!

[scenic tree]

WE'RE IN BOYS AND GIRLS

[stiff panther]

I'm in

Oh it crashed

[high haven]

yeah same

[high haven]

the moment it had to optimize shaders

[stiff panther]

Oh it was just restarting

Oh

[high haven]

IT'S WARZONE ALL OVER AGAIN XD

[stiff panther]

It crashed

[scenic tree]

And the game crashed.

Lolololololol.

Oh.

Never mind.

[high haven]

stable game, activision, maybe delay it too? :3

[scenic tree]

Game restarted itself.

[scenic tree]

My game just keeps restarting itself, lol.

[high haven]

mine's optimizing shaders atm, hopefully ig et the same menu, crafter gets xdx

[high haven]

crafter is now banned from other-games for working vanguard copy ;D

[stiff panther]

this is weird

its like an amalgamation of MW and CW

[nocturne badge]

It's returned

[ebon root]

oh them shader packs can fuck right off, everytime i go onto my game i have to wait 20 mins for them to install

[stiff panther]

wow this is pain

[spark oxide]

i love invert view

made me accurate

or, more accurate

[high haven]

ah ;D

i only use invert with planes tbh

[high haven]

historical accurate 😮

that gun xd

they still haven't fixed that since alpha xd

[stiff panther]

yeah.. an M17

yoinked from MW i assume

unused anim

[scenic tree]

M18, shorter version.

I crack up every time I see that though.

I broke even first game, lmao.

TTK is a bit absurd.

[high haven]

i can confirm corner jumping is still a thing lol

doing it so much

@fervent rapids mp40 is indeed a beast, don't even need to aim

[nocturne badge]

I am a mad-man

I don't know why there's two settings for level of detail

[high haven]

;p;

lol*

[nocturne badge]

btw this is default for one to be low and one to be high

[dark panther]

i like vanguard tbh

[scenic tree]

When you're the only one capping.

[high haven]

ok, already seeing people camping on that hotel map xD

[fervent rapids]

[dark panther]

the dogs require too many kills

[austere sonnet]

Is there a v1

[high haven]

that goliath is an easy kill machine

the bomb car basically

[high haven]

no just glide bombs i think

[fervent rapids]

rc-xd moment

[dark panther]

10 kills for dogs when deathmachine and flamenaut are 5 and 9

[austere sonnet]

somehow still hope that there’s a kamikaze kill streak for its jap side but knowing how based and cringe cod is most likely not

[dark panther]

theres no "sides"

its red v blue

which i think is lame

[high haven]

i asoultely haaate the sound design. i never hear enemies firing or walking RIGHT NEXT TO ME

also quite funny how you can tactical sprint with a mg42 xd

they even refuse to add axis forces, i doubt they add that angra xd

[scenic tree]

Okay.

Just a few things I notice so far.

Sound is fucking atrocious.

Everyone is using the STG44 or the MP40.

The dogs are ridiculous.

[fervent rapids]

My Team vs Enemy Team was a WW2 famous battle didnt you know?

[nocturne badge]

So far, okay

[scenic sentinel]

The sound in Vanguard is absolutely terrible, I was hyped for this game, but man, what a screw up this is

[nocturne badge]

Yeah the sound is weird, the announcer is also really annoying

[scenic tree]

Suppression sucks ass too.

I should not be punished for someone having bad aim.

[high haven]

also can we skip the kill replay?

[nocturne badge]

Oh so like, you can't turn off the announcer

[scenic tree]

Seriously?

[nocturne badge]

There's dialog volume but that'll probably turn off soldier voices too

[high haven]

gonna put it to 20 and report back

[scenic tree]

Yikes.

I can't hear shit when he is yelling at me every other second.

[high haven]

WTF, i didn't even hear the guy NEXT to me that was meleeing me. i saw i was getting hit but not from what

the sound design is absoultely dog crap

[scenic sentinel]

I do see potential in the game

But the visability, the damn sun thing, the sound man it's terrible

The glide bomb can't be controlled on mouse either

[nocturne badge]

Suppressors literally stop all noise lmao

[scenic sentinel]

At least I can't

[nocturne badge]

Turning off dialog turns off soldier voices

[high haven]

that sucks

[scenic tree]

Thompson slaps.

[scenic sentinel]

Game has potential, but in this state man...

Atleast I'm winning

[scenic tree]

To be honest.

The game does indeed have some potential.

I am actually surprised.

But I think they have a good bit to do before launch.

[scenic sentinel]

Agreed, my thoughts exactly

I also need to unlock all the sprint to fire attacthments before I can judge my playstyle.

[high haven]

i'd wait a year and till it drops below 20 before i consider it tbh.

[nocturne badge]

Soldier voices are annoying, your character and the announcer talks all the damn time. I got like 3 kills and my person said "It's just that easy" every single time.

[tribal crypt]

make it harder then so he shuts up

[high haven]

the smoke particles from firing obscure your screen a ton. makes it much harder to fire at what you're aiming

[stiff panther]

yeah every gunfight in doors is a disaster on your screen

[fervent rapids]

the power of the sun

[stiff panther]

Battlefield 3

[high haven]

dice pls

[stiff panther]

its decently fun, it's like a refresh of MW with a lot of weird but not necessarily bad elements

i 99% won't be buying it though, i do not want to support these companies

[scenic sentinel]

The sun is insnae

The only positive here is taht I can actually see potenial, with cold war, there was nothing.

[high haven]

the thing about cod games is that the moment they fixed it, they already moved on to the next cod game :3

[scenic tree]

A few more things.

People treat EVERY game mode like TDM.

I think the level requirements for some of the unlocks is ridiculous.

The "tink" sound from the Garand is the best sounding sound in the game.

All in all, I am having fun, but I doubt I will buy it.

[high haven]

with warzone being f2p and likely going ww2 thmed too, i dont see much reason to buy it so far xd

except maybe storage size? 🤔

[nocturne badge]

Iron Sights are the LAST optic you unlock for a Bolt Action Rifle, wtf

[high haven]

lol

i also noticed they placed the nydar on the ironsights part of a m1garand instead of in front of it like in bfv. it looks kinds awkward

[tribal crypt]

atleast its not on by default

[nocturne badge]

You do unlock factory iron sights later but why are Iron Sights the last one?

[spark oxide]

10 attachments?

[high haven]

i feel with a game where fast firing assault rifles can melt you in a second, ironsights on a slow firing sniper wouldn't be that op

[tribal crypt]

i didnt mean it would be op

[scenic tree]

The TTK is stil ridiculous.

[tribal crypt]

i mean iron sights are awful for bolt action rifles

[scenic tree]

STG44 needs to be toned down drastically.

[tribal crypt]

also why the hell does iron sights reduce your ads speed

[scenic tree]

I don't understand this. Lol.

[tribal crypt]

sledgehammers balancing is wack as hell

[high haven]

hehe, the finisher moves are louder than killing someone normally xd

[stiff panther]

wait WHAT

[scenic tree]

It seems like.

Everyone but the SMGs and the STG sucks, lmao.

[nocturne badge]

Large Iron Sights slow you down.

[stiff panther]

[nocturne badge]

I was really looking forward to a firing range tho

[high haven]

how does a flipping stg kill faster than a thompson 😫

[nocturne badge]

SBMM is pretty strong too

[fervent rapids]

s&d is kinda meh in vanguard

[scenic tree]

It really, really is.

[high haven]

just feels like tdm with one life. that's how everyone else seems to play it xd

the whole siege destruction of walls is kinda a lie. the moment you destroy more than 3 -4 pieces the entire wall goes poof

[scenic tree]

Game has potential, but it ain't for me, lol.

Everyone who had 20+ kills and less than 10 deaths are running around with the STG and SMGs. Seems like if you aren't using those guns, you get severely punished. Period.

I'll stick to my Battlefield, lol.

[high haven]

i think the lack of factions is a big mistakes. every once in a whole an enemy is right in my face due a corner, which doesnt let me see if he has a dot or not and thus i die :<

maybe i need to crick up my fov to max

[scenic tree]

I spend more time looking for red names than anything, lol.

No factions is definitely a mistake.

[high haven]

yeah it's a shame. no gun variety allowed :<

[graceful comet]

wow vanguard looks just like a reskin

looks awful..

[high haven]

going subsonic bullets + silencer. i wonder how op that will bwe with this sound design mess xd

[nocturne badge]

It's literally silent lol
My footsteps are louder than that

[high haven]

yeah im seeing enemies not even turning towards my diirection when im firing at them lol

[scenic tree]

In almost every game I played.

I had people barely contributing to the score while the enemy team had sweats.

[nocturne badge]

Sound design is just weird. I can barely hear the guns at full volume but the classic hit-marker sound effect is loud as all hell

[scenic tree]

I noticed that too.

Everything but the sounds that matter are far too loud.

[fervent rapids]

m1928 is op

[void bison]

Good god

Im so glad I never spent a single cent on this franchise

[fervent rapids]

lmao

spawns are very good on this map

[void bison]

hideous

[nocturne badge]

I actually like that map and Eagle's Nest

[scenic sentinel]

This shit is so bad I'm looking forward to BF2042...

[fervent rapids]

honestly some guns in vanguard have actual recoil which is such an odd notion for cod

e.g the m1928

[long mauve]

tbh the attachments make no sene

sense*

[scenic tree]

They actually make me laugh, tbh.

[long mauve]

ikr

[fervent rapids]

vanguard ttk is a joke

a literal joke

its so fucking fast

[scenic tree]

Yep.

It's pretty bad.

[stiff panther]

yeah and the sprint-to-fire mechanic, annoying enough in MW and CW, feels even worse here

it's literally just "gun won't fire, lol die"

all the time

:/

[tribal crypt]

just do as the noobs do

never sprint and pre aim and hold corners forever

[fervent rapids]

sigma grindset

anyways i have fallen in love with the stg

i dont like the m1928 on maps that aren't hotel royal

[scenic tree]

It was REALLY bad with the LMG.

[sacred iron]

When does the vanguard beta begin? I’m no cod fan but it’s something new to play so why not

[high haven]

i love the m1a1 so far tbh. it's rapid and easy to handle on pc. stg is a bit to slow for me with ts sprint to fire shit. and i feel like the damage just don't deal enough damage, whereas tommy would just erase the same targets.

[high haven]

open beta is from 18 to 20 i believe

[stiff panther]

Today for pre-orders and code-havers

Two days from now for everyone

[sacred iron]

How large is the download? And can I pre load now?

[high haven]

below 20 gigs or so

i think it was 14.10

[fervent rapids]

if you need the dmg grind for the sweet .30 cal coversion

[sacred iron]

Not bad then

[fervent rapids]

and for cqc power the 8mm kurz

[sacred iron]

I’m enjoying trying to improve at bfV and today has marked a huge leap in that, but I thought I’d see what all the fuss is about

[scenic sentinel]

I actually went and played some MW and BF V, that's how bad it was. Sound is completely broken, Visability is bad, I didn't even like the maps, many did. Sprint out time is terrible. Controller Aim assist is like cheating

[high haven]

honestly the only map i like is eagle's nest. the others feel mweh

[scenic sentinel]

I need a lot of ADS and Sprint to fire attatchment before I can judge. Sound is straight up not working atm.

[sacred iron]

I have a clip I recorded today where my crosshair was on an enemy but I couldn’t tell it was a player

Stupid taa

[scenic sentinel]

And I need Free for all, which is all I bother playing on cod

[sacred iron]

But I won’t buy cod either, my 6v6 fps shooter of choice is still titanfall 2

[scenic sentinel]

Titanfall is amazing

Gimme TF3

Honestly tho, I like Titanfall better without Titans 🤷

[sacred iron]

Same

I go full games where I just forget to call it down

Mostly because I’m terrible with them, but pilot gameplay is where it’s at

And that tbf is why I love the specialist system in 2042, it’s essentially the same as tf2 and that has so much freedom and fun

[fervent rapids]

I'm gonna get punished by SBMM so fucking hard

[stiff panther]

nice job

if you ever wanna hop into my matches as i play them, go ahead

we can compare skills

[fervent rapids]

I should add you as a friend first

ill get my activison code tommorow

since its 12am now

[stiff panther]

go to sleep then

[fervent rapids]

I will but not rn since I just wanna chill for a bit

so glad this is gone from vanguard tho

[tribal smelt]

ew

visual soup

[tribal crypt]

So they listened

Amazing

[sacred iron]

What’s even happening here

[weak hornet]

I didn't think Sledgehammer could make a game so atrociously bad like holy shit.

Duke Nukem Forever was more enjoyable than this awful diarrhea served on a cardboard plate

Banging an empty bottle of Dollar Store Soda sounds more menacing and damaging than the actual guns

[fervent rapids]

nah its good

it has some problems but its a beta

[weak hornet]

The problems are from the design standpoint and not from glitches

[fervent rapids]

im not saying its either

[weak hornet]

Beta isn't an excuse this lmfao

[fervent rapids]

for what?

[weak hornet]

People actually pre-ordered this shit

[fervent rapids]

people will like the game for being extremely fast paced with decent maps and a good gunsmith

[weak hornet]

[fervent rapids]

im never gonna pre order it but ill buy it on sale

[weak hornet]

Activision and sales, yes, mhm

Ghosts is still $60 btw

[fervent rapids]

they sell their current games alot

cw has been on free weekends and sales in its dev life uncountable times

[weak hornet]

SBMM is also extremely fucking strong. The moment I do okay in one match, the next match I get put up against 20 spawn camping, slide cancelling, bunny hopping STG-44s with level 100 guns with 10 attachments

The gun names get so long that the game can't even put out the entire name of it when I go to pick it up

[fervent rapids]

sbmm hasn't been a problem to me

i dropped a 53 kill game with top points and my next lobby from that wasn't just drop shotting faze members

[weak hornet]

I'm either in a match with total glue sniffers who use a wheelchair to play with or I'm in CoD World League

Thank God I didn't pay to get into this beta and the person who paid to get into the beta already cancelled their pre-order

[fervent rapids]

using a steering wheel to play cod

i got a code for the beta

[weak hornet]

I'd rather play CoD 1 than this lol

[fervent rapids]

i dislike the old cod ww2 games with a passion

[stiff panther]

old ones?

[fervent rapids]

series got good after cod 4 and with cod waw too

[stiff panther]

[fervent rapids]

cod 1, 2 and 3

hella outdated

[stiff panther]

well yeah they are

but even then they still feel decent

and they're good for what they are

[weak hornet]

The Sniper Rifles feel so fucking weirdly slow in Vanguard

Slapping my thighs together makes a louder sound than the default sniper

Also the voices are just so fucking cheesy like I'm at a paintball or laser tag arena, especially the announcer

[green crag]

They just had a sale at up to 70% off. Picked up BO, BO2 and BO3 fully loaded for a penny

[weak hornet]

The M1 Garand reloading somehow got even worse than CoD WWII's and I didn't even know you could fuck it up even more

The literal staple of World War 2 American Weapons and ya fuck it up in your World War 2 game. Even Overkill Studios made it okay

[weak hornet]

My screen is coated in vomit now thank you.

Would you like a picture?

[stiff panther]

No thank you

[pallid locust]

wtf that's so incorrect

it would be better to just waste ammo and eject the full clip and put in a new one

the clip would pop out immediately once that bolt goes back

not stay in until you pull it out yourself

[scarlet ermine]

anyone else excited for far cry 6 here?

[elfin lark]

You bet brother

[scarlet ermine]

eyy

[dark panther]

you cant refund vanguard pre orders lol

nvm i think i figured it out

they make it super hard though

i was liking the game but then i realized i payed 60$ for that and decided it wasnt worth it

[weak hornet]

Can't imagine paying that much money for it

[scenic tree]

I'll probably pick it up on sale, but I'm not going to pay full price for it, mhm.

[elfin lark]

In canada we gotta pay 80

Life is pain

[stiff panther]

ey..

[weak hornet]

I actually can't imagine any one spending money on it

[scenic tree]

I still laugh at the Sig M18. Every single time.

[worn anchor]

WAIT WTF

THATS REAL?

PLEASE TELL ME THATS A PLACEHOLDER

[stiff panther]

probably, but it hasn't changed since the first gameplay of the game

leftover from MW.. like 90% of the game :(

[fervent rapids]

my vanguard loadout in warzone is the kar98k and the m19

[high haven]

i mean.. beta is usually the phase where placeholders have been mostly taken out and it's focusing on bugs and polish...that it is still in, is a bit worrying xd

[scenic sentinel]

I have very little faith in Vanguard after playing it. Like the sound design is straight up completely not working at all. The visual/sun is terrible. The ADS and Sprint out seems slow(Now I'm not even close to unlocking everything, but I have access to see what I can put on in the future and it doesn't look good.

Aim assist and SBMM is just super strong. Like I win the games, but man do I feel just slightly above average... I can jump into a game like BF V which I've never played almost and do 10 times better.

[high haven]

wait, why is only champion hill duos available now?!

ah, they removed the lists but let you quickplay into different modes

silly.

[scenic sentinel]

Champions hill was kinda fun ish, got 2/3 wins there.

[high haven]

i'm not fond of these small numbers competititve modes tbh

*when i play solo

[scenic sentinel]

I did like the Gunfight thing a bit to be honest.

From MW

I'm not gonna judge this game until Audio is fixed and also the damn sun thing

Some said that the sound being removed when people shoot at you is an intended mechanic

But I choose to belive that nobody would be that stupid to add something like that

[high haven]

domination capture flags are so hard to read. you'd think you killed everyone on it, but turns out there's one more capping.

[high haven]

my god, i dont ever want to play that stupid ass csgo mode again in vanguard. just teammates looking for kills and completely forgetting about the bomb they have to defuse

it's excruciating to watch

[scenic sentinel]

Theres a bomb in that mode?

Jk 😂

[crisp knot]

Getting bombed in Hell Let Loose
https://www.reddit.com/r/HellLetLoose/comments/pb9ad9/reeeeeeeeeeeee/

[high haven]

xD

[high haven]

hahaha yeap. whoever posted that needs to turn down the saturation a notch of his game xd

[crisp knot]

It's a result of having HDR on, as the game doesn't support it. It only shows with captured footage, not in-game

[high haven]

ah! i see

[spark oxide]

Vanguard worth the download?

[tired shell]

Yes

[buoyant granite]

nah

[tired shell]

Beta is live till 20th.

Crossplay enabled

Give it a spin.

[scenic sentinel]

Crossplay ruins cod

https://mobile.twitter.com/EndersFPS/status/1438751055249031168

Look at this fucking shit

Dead game on PC

This guy has no idea what he's doing, you can literally see how confused he is after the kills

They need to either disable Crossplay or seriously tune the AA or I'm out. I fucking hate that BF2042 is getting crossplay too

[blissful harbor]

Anyone familiar with skulls and bones?

[sacred iron]

This channel is basically just cod discussion

[desert talon]

cod vanguard is

shxt

[spark oxide]

yes

[spark oxide]

yesn't

[high haven]

we can talk about other stuff if you want: )

[sacred iron]

Of course I don’t mind but every time I’ve checked out what’s happening it’s cod related

[high haven]

yeah, the beta started for pc so that's why

[vocal atlas]

I could only play the Vanguard Beta for 90 minutes

What a piece of crap holy smokes

I dont understand how a franchise will get worse and worse each year from a technical standpoint

Its amazing tbh

[high haven]

it's quite sunny in vanguard

[vocal atlas]

Love that as well

Sound pissed me off the most i think

[high haven]

sound apparently is acknowledged to be wrongly mixed

but it was also this bad in alpha

[vocal atlas]

The shouts as well?

Every one saying IM PINNED DOWN every 2 seconds?

ICH BIN FESTGENAGELT

SIE NAGELN MICH FEST

[high haven]

nah, they didn;t acknowledge that

[vocal atlas]

Well

[high haven]

the whole i'm pinned is annoying too true. it doesnt even make sense. you fire a fart at a guy and he says he's pinned xd

[vocal atlas]

Yeaah dude i swear if i hear this sound one more time im smacking my screen xD

I just dont know what to play atm

Last year was hard w/o CoD, bought every single release since MW2 but i cant deal with it anymore

[tribal crypt]

Imma just skip this if they dont fix the issues by launch

[vocal atlas]

Im skiping 100%

[tribal crypt]

And shitty design decisions

[vocal atlas]

Whats wrong with the gunsmith btw?

How did it get so bad since CW? It was soo good in MW

[tribal crypt]

They added pick 10 to the guns

Which means its a balancing nightmare

[vocal atlas]

Yeah but i dont even mean that

Just how it looks

Its laggy af

The attachments suck

[high haven]

i wouldn't mind gunsmith for vanguard if it made sense. they litterally slapping tommy grips on shit like kar98k or mp40s

[vocal atlas]

Exactly..

[tribal crypt]

That i could care less about

[vocal atlas]

Or just add fcking bandages to it and call it a day haha

I skiped CW as well so i dont know the balancing issues

But that would be my biggest problem as well if i would have played it i guess

[tribal crypt]

CW currently has an smg that 3 taps across the map

[blissful harbor]

They are working on it and they confirmed that they have enough of materials for it…so it means they will not cancel it again…lol

[high haven]

if there is one positive thing about vanguard it's the mounting system tho. i do like that you can strafe now

[tribal crypt]

and an AR that has literally 0 recoil

[vocal atlas]

I dislike mounting as a whole

[tribal crypt]

same

blindfire could stay

but mounting needs to go

[vocal atlas]

M4A1 from MW in CW? 😄

I cant even hit while mounted because it just feels weird having less recoil suddenly

If all you do is run n gun normally

Or snipe

[high haven]

i dont mind th emounting

[vocal atlas]

The worst part are the fcking challenges

I dont wanna get forced into mounting

[fervent rapids]

vanguards itra burst both sucks ass and is good at the same time

bad ads speed

[weak hornet]

ADS speed is weird, it's like they balance guns some guns off of it

[tribal crypt]

They balance most guns by sprint to fire speed and ads speed

[fervent rapids]

maybe cause its the one thing that can decide if you die in face to face combat or not?

[weak hornet]

It's another year of skipping an entry of the franchise 🤡

[fervent rapids]

good for you

[weak hornet]

Makes me wonder if CoD will ever be made with some form of competence ever

Probably never ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tribal crypt]

This is how theyve balanced guns since forever

[austere sonnet]

Cod ww1

[buoyant granite]

I would love to see that

[austere sonnet]

All I’m saying it’s fresh and can be a hit

make tryarch make that instead of sledgehammer

Prefer to see something based than a Michael bay film

[buoyant granite]

Best they can do is anime skins

[austere sonnet]

I mean zombies would probably be the most pog

[scenic tree]

The problem is that the devs don't play their own game.

[spark oxide]

perfect

[spark oxide]

wouldn't be surprised if i still see people running around with MP7s and M4A1s

[lethal dagger]

https://www.tweaktown.com/news/81661/new-duke-nukem-game-in-development-at-gearbox-software/index.html

NEW DUKE NUKEM!!!

[tribal sinew]

after the last train wreck im not too excited

not that it was gearbox's fault tho

but still

[trim kelp]

Titan Quest
Jagged Alliance 1: Gold Editio
Battlefield 1 ™ Shortcut Kit: Ultimate Bundle

Are Free on Steam Right now

[scenic tree]

Titan Quest, a real classic.

[trim kelp]

yea

played the mobile version and now i get to play on pc

[scenic tree]

Haven't played it in years but it was always fun. The mod support is neat too.

[trim kelp]

never tried mods, tbh i havent got to finish the game on mobile , i think there is huge land to cover

[scenic tree]

Yeah, lots of hours to put in.

[trim python]

Two of my team in siege is griefers

[tribal crypt]

Thats when you also start to grief

To throw the game faster

[austere sonnet]

Grief the griefers

[grand atlas]

Cheers, grabbed them

I had Jagged Alliance on some other launcher, but I legit forgot about it

Gotta play it before I get amnesia again

[trim kelp]

[grand atlas]

Which reminds me

I really hope System Shock remake will work out

...and come out within next couple years

I absolutely loved System Shock 2, but first one was too much to handle for me with its ancient controls

[scenic tree]

System Shock 2 was wonderful.

[grand atlas]

As much as I normally despise backtracking, that was one game where I was perfectly fine with it

[scenic tree]

Oh, I agree completely.

[grand atlas]

Well, I don't mind backtracking in itself as long as area isn't the same set of 3 rooms copypasted 30 times in a row

(hello, Halo: CE)

It's just that I don't have any sense of direction

But somehow in System Shock 2 I have managed to learn how to move around

[scenic tree]

Lol, I have a sense of direction, I just don't like copypasted content. If you're going to do it, at least make it different enough to make the player feel better.

[grand atlas]

Well, that game kinda forced you to go around from different directions, so that helped

I really liked the whole thing with audio logs too

I enjoy learning lore by exploring

Also why I loved Fallout games in the past

Including isometric ones

Except Tactics

We're not talking about Tactics

[trim kelp]

I also remember my first pc , i didnt know how to use one back then, and i was looking at movies folder and i saw call of duty, i thought it was a movie first time lol

The pc was belong to my cousin and he alreday played it, so there were lot of saves in save/load

Back then my english was 0, l

So every time i load a save i thought it was a new mission lol

[autumn finch]

oof

[trim kelp]

Do you know how i switched through saves?

[grand atlas]

First CoD, for 2003 was something

[trim kelp]

i deleted them, lmao

[grand atlas]

rip

[autumn finch]

thta makes me sad

[grand atlas]

You know, one thing from very first CoD stayed in my mind forever

[trim kelp]

Thats how the intetect bar went up abd down

[grand atlas]

Crossing the Volga

[trim kelp]

I thought it was normal

[grand atlas]

For an early 2000s game, Volga sequence was ridiculous

In a good way

[trim kelp]

And one day when i lost all saves i could noy play it for days

[grand atlas]

Yes, my old PC was having a seizure and 5 FPS during it, but idc

[trim kelp]

I didnt even know how to start a new game back then

Until one of my friends taught me

Those were golden days

[grand atlas]

I wonder one thing about myself to this day

So, my first game was Need for Speed 2

And somehow, my 5 year old brain guessed how to write cheats in

and guessed a cheat to drive a bus

[trim kelp]

And my pc was the only pc that playble left 4 dead and everydat my friends come to my house to play it, everytime someone dies next one get a round

[grand atlas]

Because back then you could just type things in the menu to race with other stuff than supercars

[trim kelp]

Haha nice

[grand atlas]

idk how I found it out

I didn't even have Internet until many years later

[trim kelp]

And the friend also gave me the my fav game of all time

Company of heroes 1

damn, they hated it because its a strategy game, but it was first game made me a gamer

But never did a 1v1 skirmish haha

[grand atlas]

Strategy games have a peculiar entry level

[trim kelp]

Yea

[grand atlas]

I remember Dawn of War being the one for me

Solo, I was absolute hot garbage

[trim kelp]

They loved age of empire but not company of heroes

[grand atlas]

In a duo, we wiped people out

[trim kelp]

Dawn of war

What's it about

Warhammer?

[grand atlas]

yeah

40k

[autumn finch]

yea

[trim kelp]

Oh neat

Good game

[grand atlas]

We mostly played Dark Crusade online

[trim kelp]

I always choose tau

[grand atlas]

My duo partner was Tau

[trim kelp]

They have long range gun ships haha

[grand atlas]

I usually played SM or Chaos

[autumn finch]

they made tau to apear to weeb

i cant spell

[trim kelp]

Always send scout to enemy base and snipe them with those big air ships

[grand atlas]

Our strategy was that he would spit out a complete Fire Warrior spam and give me energy to rush to dreadnaughts

[trim kelp]

Noice

[grand atlas]

Worked well

[trim kelp]

Tau and orcs were the ones I always played

[grand atlas]

Minus that one time he pressed something when we were loading

And crashed

[trim kelp]

Orcs have a big unstoppable tanks and tau got long range weapons

[grand atlas]

And I was playing a 5-star and 3-star with easy AI greenskin as my teammate

And by some bloody miracle I won

I don't know how to this day

Well, I half know

[trim kelp]

Haha

[grand atlas]

Essentially, they did what we did, but with different races

3-star was ork, 5-star was Necron

3-star spat out tons of basic melee and carried resources of 5-star

[trim kelp]

I played few war hammer games but don't remember which ones

[grand atlas]

By dumb luck, I attacked 3-star early not knowing it and knocked them out

[trim kelp]

One was all about taking a faction and wipe out all the other factions

[grand atlas]

And completely screwed with economy of 5-star as result

[trim kelp]

Remember the terminator look alike faction?

[grand atlas]

Necrons

[trim kelp]

They have a mobile pyramid as their top weapon

Lol yeah

[grand atlas]

Yep, Necrons

That Necron figured too late I was planning to win by key location control

[trim kelp]

I'm always about defence

I don't send troops

When I'm played tau

[grand atlas]

As one of available conditions was winning by holding 50%+ key locations for 7 minutes

[trim kelp]

Take two of those long range ships and send scounts and snipe

When playing orcs I just only send those tanks

Don't know their names

[grand atlas]

My strategy was what we jokingly called The Psyker

Killa Kans?

[trim kelp]

I don't remember much

[grand atlas]

And yeah, my strat was called The Psyker because it mostly involved using my (non-existent) telepathy skills to convince enemy into not attacking me until I got end game units

[trim kelp]

It's not their top weapon , that big jurasic tank

[grand atlas]

Killa Kan is basically the Dreadnaught, melee vehicle

[trim kelp]

Haha nice

[grand atlas]

Other than that, they had captured Leman Russ tanks

[trim kelp]

It's not meele

Just two sturdy tanks

I mean with the capacity

We can only make two of them

They have big health bar

[grand atlas]

DoW called it "Looted tank", I think

[trim kelp]

I never get those end units

[grand atlas]

It was essentially IG's Leman Russ stolen by the greenskins, lore-wise

[trim kelp]

Maybe don't remember their names

@autumn finch what are the orc tanks

[grand atlas]

Polish translation in Dark Crusade was... err

Creative

[trim kelp]

We can only make two of them due to capacity

[autumn finch]

i have no clue tbh

[trim kelp]

It's not end unitd

Just normal tanks,

[autumn finch]

i think theyre just imperium tanks with spikes

[grand atlas]

Instead of heads, Polish Gorgutz ended up telling his underlings to bring him... well, different body part

For his pointy stikk

I'll leave it to your imagination which one

[trim kelp]

Ah yes blasta tank

Blasta tank mk2

Have you played fox hole spitfire?

[grand atlas]

nope

Saw some videos of it, but never played

[trim kelp]

Or the other new game , well bit old

Don't remember the name

[grand atlas]

I don't play RTS much, really

[trim kelp]

It's about like steam punk type

[grand atlas]

shooters and singleplayer RPGs are my go-to

[trim kelp]

Oh I see, same only played coh , age of empire and war hammer

And that steam punk kinda game but only for few hours

@autumn finch

[autumn finch]

yea

?

[trim kelp]

That yoh tech tree is coming to wot

Probably next month

Blitz peeps say it's op

[autumn finch]

the what?

[trim kelp]

So I'm saving blue prints for them I guess

YoH

Usa heavy tech tree

[autumn finch]

oh

it is op

[trim kelp]

Pretty over power tank line in blitz right now

Yea

[autumn finch]

there is a us heaving tank in the same tier as the tiger and it cant pen on front or side

[trim kelp]

I think wot pc version don't include auto reloader system for them

And that turre t is ridiculous

We have one of that kind tank , called

Forgot the name lol

[autumn finch]

same

t90 i think

[trim kelp]

Nooo

T90 is a light

[autumn finch]

yea

im not sure tbh

it has a 105 with stpid damage

[trim kelp]

Ah yes

Concept 1 B

They were reward tanks of previous ranked

They were absolute monsters in rich lines

Because of that turrent, now the YoH line lol

[autumn finch]

idk

i deleted the game

it was stupid

[trim kelp]

Lol

Have you seen sprocket ?

[autumn finch]

?

[trim kelp]

It's a new tank game, graphics are almost like wot pc
The thing is you can create any tank you want ,you can add a 152 mm cannon to pz 1c , there are no limitations

Just you can create your own tanks and take them to battle also , no mp

[autumn finch]

oooooo

[trim kelp]

Yes if someone like tanks that is there game to play . No limitations

[trim kelp]

Heard thq Nordic is 10 anniversary and going live , will they unreveal something?

[tribal crypt]

A few games

[stiff panther]

[scenic tree]

Please don't put the thompson foregrip on it.

[austere sonnet]

Out the Thompson grip and the mg42 drum mag

[austere sonnet]

And a acog

[stiff panther]

this game isn't a real WW2 game, so i'm stopping caring

[scenic tree]

Please don't defile it, lmao.

[stiff panther]

feels good

[burnt pebble]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cl8fokvSrTw

[high haven]

🙂

[stiff panther]

why is your contrast better than mine

[scenic tree]

This hurts my soul, lol.

Minus the Thompson grip, the gun looks bitchin though.

[pallid locust]

Ugly suppressor and red dot

Why do they bother trying to port gunsmith to a WW2 game

[high haven]

ah yes, you need to kill somone with 2 bazooka shoots pointblank.

wtf vanguard

[austere sonnet]

[high haven]

it has a terrible reload speed, goes slow. and has a high ttk. compared to a puny pistol that kills within a second. how's that balanced, activsion? D:

[austere sonnet]

tbh can’t wait to see how the other operators skins looks like

[high haven]

tacticool ww2 grim reaper outfit

[pallid locust]

Ghillie suit with a knight helmet

[high haven]

japanese in german outfit with american equipment and british beret. also it's a cyborg

[pallid locust]

The robot woman in the bf5 trailer

[austere sonnet]

Tbh that can actually be a thing in vanguard

[high haven]

na that's too tame for vanguard

[pallid locust]

WH40K Space marine

[high haven]

we had judge dredd, warhammer stuff could be in vanguard

[clever plank]

Deltarune chapter 2 is releasing in a little over 4 hours

[austere sonnet]

Speaking of war hammer I found myself in there

[clever plank]

It's not the rest of the game, but still super hype

probably another 4 hour experience

[high haven]

ah?

[spark oxide]

Vanguard is hard

[stiff panther]

it feels particularly prone to the "cheesing the game is how you win" problem

doesn't feel like legitimate skill is rewarded all that much

[tribal crypt]

Cheesing the spawns on blitz is funny

Get like a 50 killstreak in 3 seconds

[nocturne badge]

These look like zombies weapons lol

If I do get the game I'll only play zombies tbh

[tribal crypt]

Ill only do that if they sell it without mp and campaign

[nocturne badge]

Yeah, I already knew I wasn't going to like multiplayer when I started the beta

[stiff panther]

🍞

[spark oxide]

i don't like that its Red v. Blue

give me nations

and/or fictional SF

[tribal crypt]

They are red vs blue the only true factions

To ever exist

[spark oxide]

gamer teams

[austere sonnet]

Purple v green

[scenic tree]

Uh-ohhhhhhh.

Hackers are starting to show up frequently in the Vanguard beta.

Cheating in a live game is one thing, but a beta? Lmao.

[noble pagoda]

Unsurprising.

[scenic tree]

Nope, not at all. If that is present in the live game, well dang. There's going to be a lot of upset folks.

[stiff panther]

The fact that they had to advertise that anti-cheat is coming to their games (later this year) is pretty bad

They can't handle the situation

And advertising it as a feature kinda nails that point

[scenic tree]

Aye, that's very true too.

[stiff panther]

best helicopter

This is the state of CoD.... Pro players teaching the rest of the community how to activate legal aimbot... well done activison, well done. 👏

[scenic tree]

Also teaching them how to reverse boost.

cod22 finna have the snap aim from modern warfare singleplayer as aim assist

[hardy spear]

https://twitter.com/_tom_henderson_/status/1438990072557223939?s=21

Beta has only been out for 2 days

Cheats already

[tribal crypt]

Its to be expected sadly when it runs on the same engine as MW2019

[dry wigeon]

@empty ivy

mfw I just dropped a 57 bomb on vanguard

[stiff panther]

hey

i did good too

also Champion Hill = best

[empty ivy]

Good shit!

[dry wigeon]

but i dont like champion hill

[stiff panther]

why

[chilly meadow]

I don't like it either

[stiff panther]

why

i think it's really good, playing it with a friend/partner is the best

It's basically Gunfight 2

i'll need to try it with more people

well, another*

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/567028376544477214/888629681077776395/Vanguard_2021.09.16_-_14.09.03.02.mp4

[nocturne badge]

I haven't tried Champion Hill

I will say that sniping is satisfying on Vanguard, only problem is the gun sounds

[chilly meadow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qz4y6-PpyDg

😂

[scenic tree]

Champion Hill is actually a good time.

[trim kelp]

Which games?

[south cipher]

I'm having an amazing weekend nuking grandmas in fallout 4

[spark oxide]

i'm glad

[trim kelp]

jaged alliance 3 kinda pog

anyone heard about the new game Bitcraft ?

[half wren]

random question

i want to either buy lego marvel superheroes 2 and lego avengers or age of empires 2 definitive edition. What should I buy (for Pc)?

[trim kelp]

i would go for age of empire , idk about the other two

[half wren]

i kinda have a feeling for lego games, so age of empires can wait

[fervent rapids]

dp27 in vanguard is literally god tier

[graceful comet]

downloaded warzone because im bored, first match camper in roze skin kills me

uninstall

[ashen notch]

age of empires 4 is doing a stress test right now you might be able to sign up for it and get to try it free

[trim kelp]

how?

[ashen notch]

Go to steam page for age of empires 4 the new one

Scroll below

Below the two price tags should say something like "sign up to beta"

or sign up to test

Or request access I can't remember

also marvel superheroes 2 is better than avengers i think

if your going for lego games

[trim kelp]

thanks

[onyx nest]

vanguard open beta?

[limpid jetty]

how's vanguard?

Im not gonna buy it but I wonder what people think about it

[tribal crypt]

It has many issues and stupid design choices

[spark oxide]

it's alright, nothing special but being special is hard to achieve in MW's shadow, it has decent gunplay, decent maps, but it's all-round mediocre in truth

[limpid jetty]

its pretty ugly for a 2021 game tbh

looks like it came out in 2016 or 2017

[spark oxide]

it looks great on PS5, better than Cold War and Modern Warfare

the lighting and reflections are beautiful

it's a pretty game

[buoyant granite]

Cold war looks good if you use nvidia game filters

[spark oxide]

Cold War looked good anyway

[limpid jetty]

warzone looks wierd

the game itself looks good most of the time but the ground textures are wack

[spark oxide]

true

and glass doors aren't see-through, but the window walls that surround them are

[fervent rapids]

blueprint blitz in warzone is fun

ez blueprints

i already have the m16 blueprint

going for the grau blueprint

[spark oxide]

i got one yesterday, i canny remember what it was

ahhh

MP7 Mud Drauber

[fervent rapids]

was gonna get that but my teammate that got the contraband was a shitter who didn't know what he was doing

guy was camping with the contraband

[spark oxide]

ew

[fervent rapids]

[trim python]

hm big UBOAT update

[buoyant granite]

in siege?

[trim python]

no

its a submarine game

[nocturne badge]

The fuck did they put in this STG-44?

[austere sonnet]

Explosive rounds

[nocturne badge]

btw this map had the worst spawning

[autumn finch]

the immersion

[scenic tree]

Yep, explosive rounds.

[autumn finch]

f

[nocturne badge]

In that match I had 3 consecutive spawns where I spawn at like half health

[austere sonnet]

How many maps are there

[nocturne badge]

idk

Then again CoD always had some weird spawn problems

[ebon root]

im installing the beta

https://tenor.com/view/reddit-evil-hehe-gif-3562526

[buoyant granite]

[autumn finch]

poor you

[buoyant granite]

I was too lazy to redeem a beta code

[ebon root]

anyone can download it cant they ?

[buoyant granite]

yee

[ebon root]

do you know when the beta ends btw heaven ?

[stiff panther]

it ends on the 20th

dont know specific time though

[buoyant granite]

already? damn

[stiff panther]

but probably 1pm EST if they match when it started

(it's 1:16PM EST now)

[ebon root]

bruh what the fuck it ends in 2 days

i mainly just want to see what its like i dont plan on sweating it

[nocturne badge]

It's meh. I do wish it were better because the sniping is pretty fun

But the sounds feel muffled, I don't like the announcer, map design for the bigger maps feels strange, spawns are fucky and SBMM is pretty strong

I did also run into a hacker in one of my games

[buoyant granite]

The weapon sounds are weird imo, just like in cod ww2

[languid wave]

Anyone play valorant?

[ebon root]

i remember the sounds from WW2, i think it was the PPSH i thought sounded real weird

[nocturne badge]

My first match I had fun getting triple kills and double kills with the starter Thompson and then the SBMM kicked in and I realized that was the only time I was going to have fun in the game lol

[buoyant granite]

cold war moment

[fervent rapids]

vanguard beta got increased (?)

@stiff panther @high haven @nocturne badge

[scenic tree]

Open beta.

[fervent rapids]

not my pic

[stiff panther]

it did get increased then

[fervent rapids]

the open beta was till Monday

[high haven]

It has, been increased, surely

[fervent rapids]

Very swag

I like vanguard

Biggest problem with it is TTK and spawn issues on some maps

[high haven]

Im not too fond of it, but glad you enjoy it :) moar tiem for you!

[nocturne badge]

Why is that picture moving at warp speed?

[fervent rapids]

Person who i stole the pic off was going into the game

[nocturne badge]

That's a pot handle

[scenic tree]

"SMLE" pistol grip.

Lulz

[high haven]

Or maybe in reality, the picture is made on horseback while someone uses a flamethrower

[nocturne badge]

Not again

[scenic tree]

Is Rainbow Six still plagued with a bunch of hackers?

[fervent rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/charge-attack-battlefield-battlefield1-attack-charge-gif-7279044

Gonna grind for the 8MM Kurz mags on the StG 44

I already have the 7.62 tokarev and .30 russian short 30 mag

.30 has too many disadvantages

and so does 7.62

7.62 gives up the amazing damage of the stg 44 for a boosted firerrate, better mobility and MUCH more recoil control

best for long range builds when the launch drops but for now its kinda meh

[stiff panther]

I guess it is extended

btw the 'warp speed' thing is when the animation resets

[buoyant granite]

They will change every attachment anyway once the beta is over

[ebon root]

i think they always extend the beta dont they ? i remember the CW beta was extended for like another week

[fervent rapids]

whats your Activision tag?

im on vg rn and i think requests wont break ingame

[stiff panther]

does this help

[nocturne badge]

I would love to just fuck around with the gun customization when the game comes out and I pick it up on a free weekend

But I am not willing to spend money on this game, I admit.

[fervent rapids]

Is your account private?

keeps saying friend request sending failed

[nocturne badge]

The social stuff was weird when I tried playing with Crafter earlier

[fervent rapids]

twee2e#9463513

[stiff panther]

uhh that's never happened before

[fervent rapids]

try me then

[stiff panther]

i shall

[fervent rapids]

[fervent rapids]

Accepted

You hit lvl 20 already?

Poggers

[nocturne badge]

At one point Crafter sent me a party invite but it was set to private which for some reason invites still don't work lol

I could probably reinstall the beta, it smol

[buoyant granite]

whats the size

[stiff panther]

14gb

[buoyant granite]

hmm

[nocturne badge]

I didn't try it with friends yet, maybe that might change my view on it like how it did with Insurgency and HLL

[merry shadow]

What is the name of the blizzard app again

[nocturne badge]

battle.net

[ebon root]

i loaded up vanguard for the first time and its already crashed

i now have a dent in the top of my computer because of it

[stiff panther]

oh no

[merry shadow]

Beta is open for everyone right?

[ebon root]

yh

[nocturne badge]

I don't really like the name of the launcher because putting "Battle.net" in the search bar takes you to the website itself instead of the download page or whatever

[merry shadow]

cool cool cool

[buoyant granite]

nah you still need a code

[ebon root]

wait what

[nocturne badge]

It's open now

[buoyant granite]

oh

[merry shadow]

pog

[buoyant granite]

the charlie intel account dropped hundreds of beta codes yesterday, i thought it's not gonna be free

[stiff panther]

it was for the 2 days early access

[buoyant granite]

ah alright

[merry shadow]

[nocturne badge]

Nacho not work?

[merry shadow]

I'm trying to login into Battle.net but it doesn't recognize my e-mail.

[nocturne badge]

I also don't really understand if you can change your name for CoD... My name on Overwatch and Battle.net is Riptor but on CoD it's still Mac McMillan

[merry shadow]

which is weird because I have an account

[tribal crypt]

Does it say enter mail or account name

[buoyant granite]

name

as you can see

[merry shadow]

oh nvm I'm just stupid

Got the wrong e-mail

[tribal crypt]

Some can do both

[trim kelp]

so for 4 days vanguard is free to play?

[tribal crypt]

Ye

[trim kelp]

pog

[tribal crypt]

Well beta is open

[buoyant granite]

Wish i could try vanguard zombies in the beta
