maybe a 40mm underbarrel like the m203 or gp-30, also underbarrel shotgun.

noob tube and shotgun eww

thy won't add anything that could be used to cheese or have its own skill crutch.... meanwhile

Compare that to a free under barrel attachment without some sort of downside that would actually matter… huge difference imo

#

Still would overlap with rpg frag’s intended use case, both effectively would serve the same purpose.

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

#

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

#

I just know to look up when I hear the sound what can I say?

#

something team fortress players cant do HyperXD

#

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

quiet geode
#

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

chrome island
#

Ok so indicators are coming.... I'll stop ranting on that...

chrome island
#

but if it was a bit bigger yea, it wouldn't be as easy

quiet geode
#

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

chrome island
#

(Yes I'm being serious since I rarely touch trophies)

quiet geode
#

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

chrome island
#

true, but you can manage by flying low into them

quiet geode
#

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

chrome island
#

tunnel vision is rare for me, it's this damn sound space

quiet geode
#

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

chrome island
#

sounds like people are behind me even though it's infront

quiet geode
#

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.)

chrome island
#

Also the other thing I mentioned with corner popping delay is there going to be a fix for that?

quiet geode
#

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

chrome island

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
