#Underbarrel attachments

noob tube and shotgun eww
thy won't add anything that could be used to cheese or have its own skill crutch.... meanwhile
C4 and rpg heat blast radius is getting nerfed
RPG frag is useless in its current state and when it does get buffed will still have enough downsides to keep it from being busted
Compare that to a free under barrel attachment without some sort of downside that would actually matter… huge difference imo
the attachment could be the gadget
Still would overlap with rpg frag’s intended use case, both effectively would serve the same purpose.

Could work like in this suggestion
literally already have the m320.
both could server their own niches but it would take some work to get them going
Its got smoke nades tho
itsa GL that can be attached underbarrel. if they want to, easy to do. pretty sure BF already had it as a gadget and it worked out well.
Insurgency has both as an option for the rocketer class and both have use cases
Ok that's radius,
meanwhile I'm throwing shade at stuff like c4 an personal mines on a drone that can ignore map restrictions an is easily spammable allowing the player to stay remotely safe.... kinda like arma 3, an spawn camping.....
also being able to wedge the ammo box or med bag on landmines to conceal them better around corners
plus coming around corners has a player end delay allowing the opposition to have the upper hand when corner jumping
the best way to compare what I just said would be a example from cod...
Drones are loud as hell to make up for that strategy though, nevermind the upcoming indicators for it. Yeah I get it the audio isn’t great but you can still hear a loud as hell buzzing flying machine.
As for mines.. whilst it might be “cheap”… that’s kinda the best use case for mines? To catch enemies off guard? If anything concealing them like that is smart imo
Lets not forget that c4 is also getting indicators AND actual audio cues too
To add a few more things: drone also has a range limit + your ass is exposed while you are operating it
Think its up to 500m of usable distance before you have to move in order to actually see shit and have control over it
And the map restrictions part, pretty sure thats only really an issue on super small maps or something where you can slide the drone under the map, and mind you, is a very bannable offense if caught
Should be resolved to an extent next update idk
And like pepega said, hiding mines with ammo/med boxes is clever indeed
But not very reliable per say
Both ammo and med box despawn after your die, meaning that unless you are planning to put them back again, its a waste
this man has never seen the orbital drop strat
I just know to look up when I hear the sound what can I say?
something team fortress players cant do 
I mean, it comes from the sky, and when its got 2-3 explosies on it, it falls faster than the you will hear the audio
Realistically the only time you get caught off is if you’re tunnel visioned in my experience
And even then indicators are already being added for that reason
Soon™️ of course but yeah
Ok so indicators are coming.... I'll stop ranting on that...
It's cause on those small domination maps you can spam the drone up near mid point, especially on namak
but if it was a bit bigger yea, it wouldn't be as easy
Namak has a (imo bad) habit of people clumping for control in general, so naturally people are going to use explosives to multikill said clumps
And it’s not like you can’t react to a dive bombing you unless you’re at the top of F point or something akin to that (even then however, its important to check for that reason. Realistically enemies have to grapple or use the stairs to get to you up there, both of which can easily be caught out)
Any other situation I can think of is just “explosive spam” period drone or not, hence why its a good idea to bring trophies and not stack so many bodies together (think 8+ people on a single wall of sandbags) because that’s the exact situation in which people are using explosives for to catch you off guard in the first place
Ok do trophies destroy c4 an anti personal mines?
(Yes I'm being serious since I rarely touch trophies)
No but again, this is namak you are talking about. Most spaces where people clump aren’t open and for a drone to go through there someone basically will hear the sound.
C4 is getting nerfed + drone indicators for said “sky drop” stuff people were complaining about
true, but you can manage by flying low into them
Still would be visible and heard. Even after drone indicators the solution here is just “dont get tunnel visioned”
Because most of the time that’s what it is, people clump thinking they can use that to make up for bad positioning and awareness, then get shocked when they’re blown up to bits because nobody was paying attention
tunnel vision is rare for me, it's this damn sound space
Sound is being improved in the update so if that’s the only thing that complaint will be addressed
Again, whenever soon™️ is but sound will be redone and indicators will be added
sounds like people are behind me even though it's infront
I mean I use headphones and whilst I agree sound is wack, I never had issues that stopped me from determining where something is (although that could be just general map experience affecting it as well.)
Not sure how it is without headphones, but I will agree the audio pre-update was leagues better
In general though I mainly see people fail their drone bomb because at least 1-2 people notice it, and the times it does work its often when people were too tunnel visioned and probably would have died to any other explosive anyways
(Even with the “shoot the drone straight down from the sky” strat, I’ll be it that one does work more than other strats.)
Also the other thing I mentioned with corner popping delay is there going to be a fix for that?
I haven’t seen anything in the devcasts personally
Granted if it were to be changed I feel it would be more so because of a situation akin to claymores where people felt you couldn’t react to them in time
well though I know it's not a major issue, I just find it odd that a server sync issue From the ps3 Era of mw3 is here, it's also noticeable in other games today too, but it's is only like 3-4 frames of a head start
