Snipers having something to do that can help the team. Imagine.

next onyx
#

I know of a better sniper.

#

A recoilless.

eager spire
#

cool and all but that doesn't mean they'll do that

still vault
#

I get killed so rarely by the Vulcan I cannot imagine it being an issue.

arctic grove
#

what do you guys recommend for a new player

#

Wich gamemode

eager spire
#

run

still vault
# arctic grove Wich gamemode

Tbh. Try them all and see what you like best. Can't think of a gamemode that is more or less new player friendly than others.

arctic grove
#

Hm, ok thanks.

solid imp
#

Reference to "Pac" from Tombstone Squad?

foggy halo
hearty flame
#

vs ai is pretty new player friendly

still vault
tacit sphinx
#

its more likely to be pan-asia coalition, but no confirmation/definitive evidence of that either and it could just be a random other acronym

foggy halo
tacit sphinx
#

i dont think 2042 is less welcoming to new players than any other game in the franchise

still vault
tacit sphinx
#

not in enough ways that others aren't

#

like almost any fps is going to be a little hard for completely new fps players to pick up and be good at lol

foggy halo
chilly jacinth
#

if there's little to learn

#

that sounds very beginner friendly to me

dusk fern
#

There’s very little to learn lol

#

Danny on his rant again, now against more xp boosters

#

At least he brought it to light, now I can come back and complete my bp

dusk fern
royal swan
#

The resupply gives 20xp now people are using it to boost xp

tacit sphinx
hearty flame
#

and to think dice was worried about bot farming on portal and then bp farming comes along

royal swan
dusk fern
#

They made the bp grindy af on purpose. Likely to force an increase in play time.

tacit sphinx
#

it is not that grindy lmao

royal swan
#

Bingo

dusk fern
royal swan
#

To increase player hours

hearty flame
#

grindy bp means people play more often to try to finish it means they build a habit of playing 2042

royal swan
#

No terrible skins tho

solid imp
#

It really isn't... the T1 badge for the season is grindy. The BP itself isn't grindy.

royal swan
#

The battlefield bp has more decent skins than cod bp

arctic grove
#

if you care about skins

tacit sphinx
#

like that kind of goes for any battle pass, it encourages playing while its active, but even if you just play to complete the challenges each week you'll get well over halfway through lol

arctic grove
#

once you unlock the actual gameplay content it doesn't actually matter

hearty flame
#

at least this isnt ow2s bp where the gameplay content is more than halfway through the bp

dusk fern
#

Just seems lackluster to play 4-6 full matches and being like: gg I unlocked a black and white vehicle decal that’s 2x2 inches on it lol

hearty flame
dusk fern

#

Vanguard

royal swan
#

Vanguard bp was disgusting

arctic grove
#

vanguard is disgusting, and a whole other level beyond other COD games

royal swan
#

The entire game was just disgusting

dusk fern
#

In V you could still unlock/buy uniform components which was nice for the custom character for each faction.

arctic grove
#

I gotta say I do like the mil-sim characters in MW19

#

hopefully they make that a standard option in MW2

royal swan
#

The camping Ghost from bo1 is back

#

I thought it was fixed

#

It's in mw2 2022 by the reactions of many very angry cod players

dusk fern
royal swan
#

In bo1 ghost was a perk that makes you invisible from radar or any gadget no matter what, so it supports camping, after that it was fixed to only work when moving

dusk fern
#

Oh gotcha, that’s why you gotta check those corners lol

royal swan
#

Oh and they brought the get killed but can come back perk

#

I forgot the name

eager spire
#

It’s weird

dusk fern
#

Last stand? Or?

royal swan
#

Two perks from bo1 that was hated

#

Removed after bo2

#

Now came back

hearty flame
tacit sphinx
#

yeah i saw last stand but idk if it actually has a gun? looked like just the warzone down state

arctic grove
#

they probably think ghost is balanced because of the extreme UAV spam in every match

royal swan
#

I think you just get down lol

#

It's a downgrade version but it's there

#

Dead silence is still not a perk but that is a more controversial topic

lilac dust
#

That TTK ain't it in MW2 ..... How are you supposed to feel the uniqueness of every gun if they all just one shot 🤣

dusk fern
arctic grove
#

the sound whoring thing is hilarious

royal swan
#

Lol

arctic grove
#

complaining that footsteps are too loud, and people are just gonna be sitting around with headsets listening for movement

royal swan
#

More of a paranoid camper than a run and gun guy that complains about everything a camping person does

#

Bf1 and bfv got me all shaken up

arctic grove
#

I always took a calm approach to MW19 MP, the pacing was just right for me most of the time

#

still had people pulling the usual COD stuff, bunny hopping, slide-cancelling, shotguns etc

#

but most people seemed to actually play it more casual and it was nice

dusk fern
#

I’m excited that there seems to be less of that style of gameplay for MW2. More grounded and I’m into it.

#

Though the shotgun seems op lol

silk surge
#

Remember back when your entire vehicle loadouts would hard reset after every 3rd game? I miss those days.

royal swan
#

Still having the sbmm. Warm up games no longer exist

#

All anxiety

arctic grove
#

yeah im hoping that the SBMM is toned down a bit, but I bet it won't be

#

honestly if I wanna really chill i'll play that invasion game mode

chilly jacinth
#

play ground war and youll barely notice it

arctic grove
royal swan
#

The no slide cancellation is nice.

#

Back to the classic bunny hops and dolphin dive

arctic grove
#

depending on whether you normal sprint or tac-sprint you can achieve either the slide-cancel or dolphin dive

eager spire
#

I personally don’t agree that slide cancelling should’ve been removed.

arctic grove
#

tho that may just be a beta bug, not sure if its been confirmed

eager spire
#

Lacking any other form of advanced movement, it seems like a step back.

chilly jacinth
#

the new slide cancelling is a bug

royal swan
#

Nice little reality

arctic grove
#

thought it might be

#

I mean to be fair slide-cancelling started out as just an engine bug that became a staple for COD tryhards for a long time

eager spire
#

Yeah. As is most advanced movement tech.

arctic grove
#

they just embraced it as a feature

royal swan
#

Now it's back to the bunny hops and dolphin dives like the ogs have done

dusk fern
#

what do yall think of the wall hang animation? think it'll get used a lot?

eager spire
#

No

arctic grove
royal swan
#

It's nice

arctic grove
#

honestly, its a gimmick, but there's nothing wrong with having it

chilly jacinth
#

its way better than just vaulting over a super high wall

eager spire
chilly jacinth
#

like in mw2019

arctic grove
#

probably good for climbing as it means higher chance of successfully jumping on something

dusk fern
#

hoping I can see fingertips on the edge and I'll go melee em for the rp effect lol

royal swan
#

Just on the wall taking a shit on the dead body below

royal swan
chilly jacinth
#

the real ogs had wall bouncing

eager spire
#

Yeah. I feel like the nerfing of movement in MW22 is a mistake.

#

Made only to appease the casual player base.

arctic grove
#

the game sells to mostly casuals

royal swan
#

Nothing wrong with casual

arctic grove
#

lol

dusk fern
royal swan
#

Casual is fun for people that don't want to break things

chilly jacinth
#

not like slide cancelling was skillful in anyway

#

so

#

doesnt matter that its gone

royal swan
#

Lol

still vault
chilly jacinth
#

change the name of this channel to other games

royal swan
#

Nah, I think we should end it

eager spire
dusk fern
#

lmao

royal swan
#

Was originally talking about the bp

#

Not sure how it ended with cod again

dusk fern
#

I wish there was more to talk about 2042 tbh

arctic grove
urban nimbus
#

question to anyone that can answer, I went on singleplayer to up my kills for attachments and I can't even use it. Is it a bug or?

still vault
#

I will drown MW talk in this spreadsheet and all will be good

chilly jacinth
#

3 points per day

#

thats nothing

royal swan
#

That's casual play

still vault
#

Hmm, actually only need 42 points for being level 100 in the BattlePass if I do all the weekly dailies

dusk fern
#

Is the S1 badge gonna get fixed or?

still vault
#

and 3 points still takes a while when you go up into the 20k range per point, but still doable.

arctic grove
royal swan
#

Yo carbonic is behind 50 on the bp

still vault
royal swan
#

I'm directly on 50 and I haven't played for a bit now

arctic grove
#

I don't even remember where im at on the BP

#

maybe like tier 46

dusk fern
arctic grove
#

I stopped caring after I got the avancys

#

lol

royal swan
#

Lol

#

I'm t2 on the avancys

#

Just need a few more bot matches on breakthrough

still vault
dusk fern
#

ah okay, still it's only on T4 for me

#

and not even unlocked T4

still vault
#

And now I have to double-check that what I wrote was correct 😄

still vault
arctic grove
#

its pretty great, far better than the other LMGs

royal swan
#

Absolutely, they should buff the vault one tho

arctic grove
#

I got all the attachments unlocked but thats it so far I think

royal swan
#

Make it do more damage for it's low rate of fire

#

Or just increase the rate of fire

arctic grove
#

the vault weapons are just kinda mediocre

#

they really need to rethink before they add any more

dusk fern
arctic grove
placid echo
#

It probably stands for something like "Personal Audio Communicator"

arctic grove
#

yeeeah my top g

#

wish dice would just admit they screwed up

placid echo
#

PAC also exists as the Pan-Asian Coalition in 2142

still vault
radiant prism
#

M60 I agree is mediocre, but the M16 hits like a truck

tacit sphinx
#

ive barely used either of them tbh

next onyx
#

M16 needs a proper tune up before I can properly judge it.

#

I got it to tier 1 but I felt I was fighting the gun in specific instances.

#

M60 does suck though.

tacit sphinx
#

neither feels quite right and idk the whole reinforcement of "these are just portal guns" with them not having unlocks/2042 attachments and skins just put me off, idk

next onyx
#

Yeah it sucks with no skins. At least the badges exist.

tacit sphinx
#

i wouldnt mind as much if that was just how they were presented to us but the initial announcement was like "yeah they'll have 2042 attachments and skins and thats why it might take a bit for them to make it to the game" and then like a day before theyre added we find out that actually they have nothing new

arctic grove
tacit sphinx
#

and then they kinda suck to use lol

arctic grove
#

the underbarrel GL is strong af tho

next onyx
#

They need to fix the fore grip since it's non functional.

radiant prism
#

I agree the M16 is very bouncy, but it hits like a damn truck

next onyx
#

800 rpm 8m 4HK it's a bit whatever. I need to look at it's 5hk and all that shit.

arctic grove
#

nothing wrong with it there

next onyx
#

I'm going off as if the ranges haven't been changed at all.

#

Not through heavy barrel or tuning.

tacit sphinx
#

the recoil feels weirdly floaty, its the same issue as the svk high power

arctic grove
#

and yeah I agree with the SVK, I like that gun with the HP rounds but yeah it doesn't feel right

next onyx
#

The m16 is a 4hk to 8 metres.
It's 5hk extends to 40 metres and beyond that its a 6 hk.

#

I dunno. Its other weakness is the fact it doesn't have an extended mag.

#

35+1 would help it in the longer run.

arctic grove
#

I hate this game alreayd

#

already

next onyx
#

Sorry to hear that.

shut oar
#

havent played in ages, what are meta gun currently? Wanna start unlockin attach for em

next onyx
#

Sfar.

#

PBX.

#

Avancys

#

And the bsv m.

shut oar
#

Gotcha dope, seems like ive been leveling right guns lol. already maxed my bsv, sfar is close, and avancys just started. What muzzle you run on the sfar? & same for avancys muzzle/grip

next onyx
#

PBX close combat is what you need.

arctic grove
#

Can't even kill somebody

shut oar
#

havent touched the pbx yet ill have to check that out

arctic grove
#

got a huge disatvantage

next onyx
#

I run 6ku/basic barrel, fusion holo and drums.

shut oar
#

gotcha ill have to try basic barrel again, had a muzzle on it for ages but it just feels off lol

radiant prism
arctic grove
#

I'm new to the game

#

And I feel like im not doing any dmg

#

to my enemys

#

feels like warzone

radiant prism
#

I mean theres no major difference between you and someone who knows the game besides attachments

#

And you'll unlock that by just getting kills

#

What gun are you using?

arctic grove
#

then I prob suck

#

M5

radiant prism
#

Yeah the M5 can be kinda spongy sometimes IMO

#

Try the PBX if you don't mind going a bit more close range

arctic grove
#

alright

radiant prism
#

Although, the high power and close combat magazines for the M5 are excellent

oh i mistook when each one starts and ends

arctic grove
#

so i noticed the called conquest large now in lobby huh

#

(guess for the people dont know conquest is large)

radiant prism
#

I mean there's generally conquest large and conquest small

chilly jacinth
#

well conquest 64 player exists

radiant prism
#

I think in this game it refers to 128p vs 64p

#

yeah

frank rain
#

The fourth deal at stranded ship remember it's an arms deal reznov from future bf 2121 got fed up of hinds he told all specialist to deal with them he told us to rank up reach s 2 target those hinds and say fire the nebuta

tacit sphinx
#

it shows up as conquest large on last gen as well though lol

arctic grove
tacit sphinx
#

what

copper fulcrum
#

Stranded on 64 and 128 is the same layout

lilac dust
#

Conquest large includes the all maps conquest playlist and stranded 24/7... Stranded has nothing to do with the name change

lone void
#

128 player El Alamein would make it playable

#

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk

lilac dust
#

I'd love 128 conquest on exodus maps. IDGAF about balance. I just want more 128 maps to play on

lone void
#

That's why 128 player rush is so good, because it's on the same maps as 64

#

Literally hell

lilac dust
#

To be clear though. Not interested in the 64 conquest layouts of maps like exposure and kailedoscope e.c.t but i'd love to play a 128 valapriso, el alamein, battle of the buldge e.c.t

lone void
#

Yeah ofc

#

Tbh the 1942 maps are the worst

#

They feel too big for 64 players and too small for 128

#

Just feels odd

arctic grove
copper fulcrum
#

PS4 only has 64 Conquest

#

PS5 can support 128

arctic grove
#

yeah yeah i got that. play it on pc too 😆

#

i mean. on the ps4 64 conquest its now called conquest large with 64 people

hallow sierra
#

its the same on the xbox one

arctic grove
#

lets see if the maps are bigger 😆

copper fulcrum
#

Likely not for PS4

arctic grove
#

definally not lol

#

xbox one not to xd

#

but ps4 hardware wise suffer faster then xbox one to render the same stuff

#

even on bf 2042 noticed on s1 with that new map. it didnt render good the tunnels. putted a wall where you can run trough on enter and exit 😆

#

so you needed to be in the tunnel or get rekt. till it fully loaded 😆

#

tomorrow nvidia announce new gpu WoahTea

what grip/barrel yall r un on avancys

Does it even support 8K or is it upsampling?

solar obsidian
#

it does support 8k

shut oar
#

also, is there any fix for attachments not unlocking when you get the mastery? ATM have that for my extended avancys mag, and both LWG and bcg grips on avancys. SUPER annoying

#

knew it was an issue at release... shocked its still existing, might as well not use avancys at this point if i cant use any of the attach lmao

uncut bay
#

get to the next mastery rank

shut oar
#

wack ok, cuz im missing multiple masteries lol, at like 230 kills rn and still dont have the 180 or 210

#

maybe 240 will do it copium

lilac dust
#

I think that happens because the game jumps ahead by like 30 kills on the tracker but you're actually 30 kills behind. Happened to me a few times but I just got more kills and it fixed itself

shut oar
#

ye small dev team, i get it

hes on pc im on old gen

keen loom
quaint wigeon
#

how can i add him

tame cobalt
#

irish aps is actually so busted

#

just place this thing down and you counter like 80% of everything in the game

#

i think it should be nerfed to just reduce explosive damage instead of nullifying it

next onyx
#

Oh shit I forgot support had a mini aps in bf4.

#

But it was a bit different.

#

Had a cool down and worked in a certain direction.

#

Was largely useless and unused.

tame cobalt
#

you know what, combine the two Irish gadgets into 1

#

a cover that has aps ability but merely reduces explosive damage a bit and can be shot down more easily sackboythumbsup

#

or just nerf his aps

next onyx
#

..or take it down in one direction only.

tame cobalt
#

idk, just feels like too much of a "hard counter" to so many things, would prefer if it's just a "soft counter"

#

but idk WideAngel1

night vessel
#

any new market items on listing

arctic grove
#

Well, just bought the game

low timber
next onyx
#

Yeah this game doesn't need more cheese.

tame cobalt
#

If they don't want people to use explosives then they shouldn't have made them a central game mechanic WideAngel1

wide shore
#

Irish’s shield should contribute to his T1. He should get assists for people getting kills behind cover, the same way Crawford gets assists for people getting kills with his Minigun.

chilly jacinth
#

why

next onyx
#

When you realise launchers and c5 are important for vehicles.

#

Gl and frags for flushing enemies behind cover.

#

People will abuse them to the Max.

tame cobalt
#

irish aps turns a fun part of bf gameplay into a wet fart

next onyx
#

Getting blown up by explosives is not fun.

tame cobalt
#

it is

next onyx
#

Especially in this game.

low timber
#

The C5 does have a way too long throw distance with a massive blast radius as well, pretty much a better frag as you can detonate it mid air, while frags explode almost on impact.

next onyx
#

You might find it fun getting instantly killed.

#

I don't.

arctic grove
#

I don’t like the idea of asking for all these meat grinder infantry maps then asking to nerf what makes them barely tolerable

next onyx
#

Oh yeah marse grenades have an anti stuck measure.

wide shore
# chilly jacinth why

Because the shield doesn’t serve a huge purpose point wise. Irish players should be rewarded for using them strategically instead of selfishly.

Right now there’s almost no point in using the cover over using the APS. Other than using it for yourself in a place with little cover. One rewards you, the other does not.

low timber
#

Way, remember, not everyone are as skillful as you to just use bullets LULW

low timber
next onyx
#

If they hit a surface multiple times within a small period of times they will instantly explode.

#

Lemme share an example.

chilly jacinth
#

it rewards me with cover

#

which this game lacks

#

c5 is pretty fun to use and a good backup when reloading ect

next onyx
#

Frags and c5 are instant. They have a larger explosive radius.

full burrow
#

can get sneaky bois in corners without revealing yourseld

next onyx
#

A larger kill radius if you might.

low timber
next onyx
#

Fucked if I know.

tame cobalt
next onyx
#

Well guess what. They don't.

wide shore
#

I almost never use grenades. I’ve been using the motion sensor since I unlocked it. Only use frags for weekly challenges if needed.

next onyx
#

And aps still should block them out.

#

Opposite here. I main frags and I need that killing power.

tame cobalt
next onyx
#

They're good if you throw them just right into an area.

low timber
#

I’ve used the concussion for two days now, well didn’t have opportunity to use them today, but yesterday I did clean the green barrack on the Kaleidoscope FOB as an attacker in BT.

next onyx
#

I think I'm at 650 kills for them?

#

Nice!

wide shore
#

I mostly play 128cq and knowing where people are is IMO more important than killing someone.

next onyx
#

I can hear people so I don't have that problem.

wide shore
#

I mean, I use a headset too. But the footstep audio is weird in this game.

next onyx
#

Yeah it's a fucky.

low timber
#

Today I was a bit bored and thought

let’s try Hardcore and Lis

next onyx
#

Try 3d headphones option

#

Oh no.

teal talon
wide shore
#

I’d love to. But am broke and trying to save for a PS5. Lol

low timber
#

And we’ll, the server I hopped on had a 5x global damage multiplier

#

So the Lis rockets did ohk even super hinds haHAA

tame cobalt
#

just turn the dumb aps into an explosive damage reducer

low timber
#

No

tame cobalt
low timber
#

Maybe the night mode or something?

#

Because I had that on in BFV

next onyx
#

I spent so long trying to find a good audio setting.

#

In this game.

tame cobalt
#

3d headphone setting superiority

low timber
#

Shame that there isn’t a separate volume slider for background ambience and footsteps

wide shore
next onyx
#

I think I just gave up. Tried the 3d headphone mode and didn't touch it.

#

Grab I always wondered that marse.

tame cobalt
#

3d headphone setting in BFV is fucking phenomenal

low timber
#

What kind of a headset you have?

next onyx
#

Hyper x alpha.

low timber
#

Can’t remember mine other than it’s a Turtle Beach, an old one as well.

next onyx
#

3d audio makes no sense because audio has been 3d for a very long time.

#

For context.

#

Back on doom if you awoke an imp on your right it'd sound on the dead centre.

#

Now with how games are done sounds are more accurate.

low timber
#

I did get a new headset for my PC last Christmas but my PC has a headset and mic separate so it’s not gonna work, so I could try it on my XBSX Thonk

tame cobalt
#

still not 3d until this tech is used

#

The difference is

low timber
#

4D Audio CursedCat

next onyx
#

7.1.

tame cobalt
#

It simulates the way sounds hit your ears at different times

next onyx
#

7.1 is weird.

#

The sound range is larger.

tame cobalt
next onyx
#

Maybe just that then.

tame cobalt
#

That's what they did super well in bfv 3d audio setting

#

Works with any headphones, phenomenal full 3d audio immersion

#

it was one coder at criterion that made it

#

i think bfv may be the best in the industry at this

#

or at least was at that time

#

Short segment

#

@hexed mango LEAK COVER OF NEXT BATTLEFIELD GAME**

tame cobalt
#

to me it's just crazy that bfv had this phenomenal 3d audio but it's hidden in the settings menu and most people won't use it because they'll think "my headphones aren't 3d"

so probably almost no one used it

wide shore
#

I certainly didn’t. Cause I had no idea it was a thing

#

Only audio setting i fuck with in Battlefield is usually switching audio sounds to WarTapes

not a fan of 3d audio, every time i've tried it's just not been great

but then you get that one game that just sounds like it was mixed horribly

portal people are trying to recreate airborne. it's pretty neat. basically increased transport air vehicles with nerfed guns so you can constantly drop from the sky and the enemies aren't spammed to death by their presence. i miss bfv's mode

frail sparrow
# fiery shoal https://youtu.be/sYDJq5e6spw?t=203

ah yeah, that explains it. it's an interesting way, but rather confusing i feel while playing. does mean, you just gotta spend more time aiming towards doorways or windows where you can hear noises from then

fiery shoal
#

yea, i mean, it is different to every other shooter afaik

#

doesnt help the directional audio changes depending on your distance to said openings too

frail sparrow
#

true

#

you're expecting the noise being made from the location of the players, not from the room they're coming from. which bfv did rather well imo

# arctic grove BF 2042 2: Revenge of Containers

If you want to enjoy BF 2042 : Running Simulator, come join me, I created a portal experience called "Battlefield Running Simulator 2042" for the people that really understand Battlefield 2042 to its core !
I'm curently running a server on NextGen/PC if you want to try.
(Code : AAZDTM, in case I'm not playing anymore...)

summer finch
#

I found a hardcore server. 🙌

edgy oriole
#

congrats you found the only servers open on portal

keen loom
arctic grove
royal swan
#

Ha

somber ore
arctic grove
#

True

#

DICE removed the only good bug in the game

#

had 1 good match in portal today, on the second go around our team got steamrolled in rush, partly because the game didn't put people in fucking squads properly

#

good portal servers are hard to come by, and they're fine until the game balance gets fucked and everyone leaves

#

guess im going back to AOW now

somber ore
arctic grove
#

nah im good

#

I like my video-game characters to be as unfit and lazy as I am

somber ore
#

ahah

arctic grove
#

its sad that theres barely any good portal servers, its all hardcore or XP farms

#

I always come on to check and see if the 2 rush all maps custom servers I like are active or not, only seems to be a certain time in the evening and sometimes not at all

#

one of them is Squid-Gs but that seems to come on only semi-regularly

somber ore
#

yes... Also I tried creating portal experiences but after this how do you get players in your server ? Beaucause no one join an empty server lost in all the empty servers (I don't do it either so I understand why)

#

I don't know what could change this...

edgy oriole
#

you used to be able to get people into a full xp rush game but they moved that to aow. i am biased bc portal is boring af. so i dont go near it

arctic grove
#

the servers I play on are 128 player rush chaos, the only 128 player mode I actually like

#

can't really get the same experience in the AOW version

#

they also have the underbarrel grenade launchers disabled so it helps at least a little with the ridiculous explosive spam

calm bison
#

Damnit one of my dining halls removed the root beer from their soda fountains

#

Instant -2 stars on yelp

arctic grove
#

oh and theres also the thing where you can move when you're downed, so you can crawl your way to a medic or a safe spot. You have like 100 seconds, and you can still be hit by an enemy to take off like 20 secs of the cooldown per bullet, or an explosion will just send you to the respawn screen.

Man I hate it when

shut oar
#

what attach yall like best for pbx? Got most my guns setup how I like, just need a good cqb gun now

#

and hear its better than the k30

fiery shoal
#

depends what you want really

#

if you want CQC domination id argue any other smg is better

#

k30 and mp9 are mag dumb high weapons, not really much to learn other than effective ranges, pp29 is basically the ar of smgs but with moderate VREC, so learn to control pp29 and its good all around

shut oar
#

yeah primarily been using mp9/k30 atm

fiery shoal
#

if you want a weapon thats as easy to use as those, but are a little more well rounded at the cost of cqc prowess, thats the pbx

keen loom
fiery shoal
#

even though sub 10m the pbx is the fastest ttk smg, thats a rather niche range to be concerned about especially when ttk difference is like.. .1 seconds

shut oar
#

alrighty ill give it a shot, k30/mp9 are awesome, jsut the rpm so high you blow through so much ammo lol

#

so if pbx is similar ttk im fine w not having to worry about ammo so often

or you learn the pp29 and challenge smgs and ars

With the recent wipes the game is very Grindy and there’s not a lot of point in starting now

which i kinda assume is down to hitreg stuff with detecting a bunch of pellets at once, a lot less obvious on the 12m

It’s already pretty much late wipe and everyone’s just running Meta kits lul

and why are shotguns necessary for proper CQC?

the 12m is already plenty good at cqc anyway lol

@keen loom what system do you not play on?

fiery shoal
gloomy wyvern

A sniper shouldn't be the main for CQC
and it isn't unless the person with the sniper is very accurate, in which case they deserve that
An Assault Rifle shouldn't be the main for CQC
Why not?
An SMG should be acceptable for CQC but not the main
Why not?

# hexed mango https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Georgian_SOF_commence_an_entry_during_raid_dr...

Close-quarters combat (CQC) or close-quarters battle (CQB) is a tactical situation that involves a physical fight with firearms involved between multiple combatants at quite short range. It can occur between military units, police/corrections officers and criminal elements, and in other similar situations. In warfare, it usually consists of unit...

and i would like to note the type of weapons they are using

they should make trailers playing the game, and not make good quality cinematics like battlefield 2042, once you enter to play it seems like you are playing a 2005 game on ps2
