glacial solar
Nvvy explain how OWI thinks new player friendly
tulip crypt
What does that sentence even mean
glacial solar
OWI said we want to change inf
To make it not so impactful of killing each other so easy
To let the new player not frustrate so quick and leave the game
Now please don’t lie
You can search it up
The whole comment section on YouTube and discord laughed about this ICO statement
After all played 2-3 hours of ICO
After release
tulip crypt
Here, let me grab a few quotes from the ICO posts and you can tell me what you want to talk about, because you're just rambling
tulip crypt
In addition, we are striving to make combat more approachable for players of all skill levels. We understand the importance of creating an inclusive environment where new players can feel useful and contribute to the overall success of the squad. By providing opportunities for newcomers to engage in suppressive fire or support roles, while experienced players execute flanking maneuvers and decisive pushes, we aim to strike a balance that promotes both learning and effective teamwork.
We aim to add depth while making it easier for new players to be useful and live longer.
Among other insights, we also found our changes to the infantry role have a major benefit to new players. The overhaul finds these newer players no longer need advanced spotting skills to make a meaningful contribution to their team. Instead, they can actively cooperate and positively impact their Squad by providing suppressing fire where teammates direct. This level of approachability allows newcomers to dive into the action and feel like valuable squadmates from the get-go, making the new user experience much more welcoming.
Just a few quotes I could find by searching for "new player"
tulip crypt
I'm just posting the quotes so you can tell me what you want to talk about
tulip crypt
You're not very clear, I don't know if it's a language thing
glacial solar
it’s a language thing don’t be a c**** English is not my native language
tulip crypt
I'm being genuine with you
glacial solar
Yes fine
tulip crypt
I don't know what point you're trying to make
glacial solar
I try my best
tulip crypt
So I posted the quotes so you could directly reference them
tulip crypt
I try to understand you, I'm just being honest that I don't understand you right now 🙂
glacial solar
They said they want to make longer fights
They added sway
Extreme sway
Recoil
And blind suppression
Like you blind for 40 sec
Let’s talk about this
gleaming peak
Did ... Anyone else see that bot pop up or was that a thing on my end?
tulip crypt
Yeah Islambek said a nono word
glacial solar
Did ... Anyone else see that bot pop up or was that a thing on my end?
You wanna call the police now ?
Omg
tulip crypt
bot autoremoves the message and then disappears
gleaming peak
You wanna call the police now ?
No I'm just wondering if I saw that right, mobile Discord is buggy as hell so I didn't know if it was just me.
glacial solar
I am chilly af but the thing is why you react like this when people post facts about ICO
tulip crypt
OK, so what exactly do you want to talk about? Are you taking issue that OWI made the game new player friendly? That the changes they made didn't actually make it new player friendly? IDK what point you're making
glacial solar
These new guys came by and suggested or spoke about particular issues
Split seconds you guys replied
Like you camping here filtering
tulip crypt
I'm chillin, I finished work a bit ago.
glacial solar
You and poaw
glacial solar
You maybe clean toilettes for OWI that’s what I really think nobody ever defended ICO so sickening like you
For you ICO is perfect and you said it
You again if you scroll up ⬆️ you said to guys skill issue
tulip crypt
lmao
I have never said ICO is perfect Islambek.
You really gotta come correct here, you keep calling me paow or just making shit up entirely
glacial solar
If you wanna talk about skill you talk with me … not with these who don’t know *** about inf
Then it was poaw
I asked one of you
seriously
tulip crypt
You have to stop grouping us together lol
glacial solar
You are together
tulip crypt
I don't agree with everything poaw says and vice versa I'm sure
glacial solar
And this fruit guy arnodildo
He talks so much about ICO suppression and dispersion
And says it has to be like it
Not to hit with a mg at all just suppress
tulip crypt
I love it when you call arno "fruit guy" or "raspberry man"
tulip crypt
I'm pretty sure arno has agreed with me about MGs tho
gleaming peak
I love it when you call arno "fruit guy" or "raspberry man"
It is admittedly kinda funny
glacial solar
Nah man but this ain’t it trust me
This ain’t it they can make it better
They maybe can bring us rope extracting from helis
Instead of all that EMOTE crap
tulip crypt
IIRC I think arno specifically said he wishes the MGs were more like the MG3
in terms of handling
glacial solar
Mg3 is fine
tulip crypt
Exactly
tulip crypt
I think even poaw has said the MGs suck
glacial solar
You are not that accurate with the mg3
tulip crypt
I don't think you'll really find anyone defending how MGs work rn
tulip crypt
Yeah I mean MGs in general are not particularly accurate irl, but it's all relative. They're much more accurate than they are in game, but they're not designed to be precise rifles
gleaming peak
We can all agree that the current dispersion is way too bad, yes?
tulip crypt
Yeah, I can't think of anyone I've seen that thinks MGs are in a good state rn
glacial solar
Ok let’s say Pikachu boi sitting or laying on ground well fed full health full mental health bi podded clear sight enemy 200m MG 240B bipodded
And you shoot 5-7 shots
Or let’s make it 3 for you because you don’t have muscular shoulders like me
So you don’t get hurt
tulip crypt
roflmao
glacial solar
You really wanna tell
Me you won’t hit ?
tulip crypt
@glacial solar bro nobody thinks the MGs are good we can move on
glacial solar
With that weapon
???????
A controlled burst
Like a real man holding it onto it
tulip crypt
What is it you even want to talk about
glacial solar
Squeezing the trigger and concentrating on the shots
tulip crypt
do you just rant like this irl
glacial solar
You have to go shoot man I told you many times then we can talk
It’s not about making ICO to realism
But it’s about bringing it a bit closer
And not how they went away from it
Poaw said before the barrel has point shooting right ?
Bullet go where barrel shows
?
tulip crypt
Yeah, it does.
tulip crypt
ok
glacial solar
Like you must have 2 fingers maybe only in your hand to shoot a ak like this how it is in ICO rn
Each hand 2 fingers and holding a 4kg rifle
You know a hand with only 2 fingers like index and thumb
tulip crypt
It is pretty weird given it should be shouldered about the same as it is when ADS/cheekwelding
it's a bit floppy rn for sure
I think the recoil should be pretty similar to ADS tbh
glacial solar
Nvvy would you add a bit of a deeper zoom for IRON SIGHTS ONLY when you hold shift ?
glacial solar
No no more
There is I know but more zoom
Like zooming in
Picture
Only for IRON SIGHT
Weapons
tulip crypt
Maybe. Depends on how much, at a certain point it can just outdo scopes
glacial solar
You ever played Dayz ?
tulip crypt
I like how in Arma/Sq44 and similar games you can shift-zoom just in general, not even just irons
It's nice bc monitor resolutions are pretty small compared to how it would look with real eyeballs
You can do it while just standing, and I think maybe even with scope up in those games
glacial solar
Yes you can
But idk 50/50 for me
Yes and no
In squad the iron sight zoom could be more
tulip crypt
Yeah. It's something that I could see being added but I'm not desperate for it either
glacial solar
And you see you immediately thought about it can outdo scopes
tulip crypt
Maybe. I think it's ok rn but I wouldn't lose my mind if it was a little more zoom, ig
glacial solar
Your mind is always negative
glacial solar
Look in Dayz you have it also
tulip crypt
it's just worse than a scope, no
glacial solar
And it doesn’t mean you hit where you aim
So my point is in Dayz there is body temperature
And you can miss shots because of cold 🥶 body core
So I don’t want it in squad
It don’t make sense by all that all slowmo running we do
But the accuracy can be variable
Not hitting straight like you have a bit of windage
But I must say idk I am not a programming expert but the hit box of squad is the most precise one
I can explain what I mean … if you have open field like talil running people at 300-400 m or more iron sight or scoped
And you hold it in front and estimate the bullet path and shoot couple shots single fire and you get the feel and see if you hit
Sometimes you can just be like let’s say just grazing him and not hitting him deadly or hurt
There is in no other game rn this is so satisfying
Not to have a easy pattern of hitting people 300-400m
200m … 300m

If you think people working together to improve mobility is something someone would have to invent it wholesale then that certainly explains something about how you have arrived at your opinions about gameplay.
I play Squad a lot.
static oriole
I wrote whole essays on why exactly MGs are bad, and how MG3 is the only one that fits the rest of the rifles comparatively. So m240 and PKM and the derivatives should have less recoil.
small mesa
We have really similar play time.
And i say ico sucks. 
That is proof that playtime doesnt give you good taste.

Same here 4700 h playtime , Playing squad since 2016 xD . And i think some more tweaks and everone will be happy

Playtime means jack indeed. With my rate, in 8 years i would have 7500 hours. And im not even playing obsesivelly. I remember a time when me and my friends put in 8-10 hrs into a game every damn day non stop.

That was a response to @pseudo magnet saying this:
"Looking at the number and size of his posts, I get the impression that he is more engaged in writing them than playing the game he is discussing"
Which is something that I don't think actually matters when discussing mechanics. Opinions might change based on play time or not, but I'm not about to sit her and try to vet play hours or gatekeep having opinions. The only cost to ignoring it is that you might get a people who are ignorant of game mechanics.
...And guess what we get anyway?
