    Downloaded trial, people kept kicking me from group before round even started and this was in casual. I presume they took one look at my level and said "no way pal", as these guys were all mostly 50+. I had 2 games but the wait time to get into a game was nuts

    yeah, I had that my first few games as well. you'd be as well off trying to use a LFG or 'looking for group' thing.

    I've a feeling this weekend will probably be a bit of a car crash with constant teamkilling / rushing etc.

    but yeah, it can be rough playing solo. I got headshotted by a teammate for putting a castle barricade somewhere he didnt approve of.

    Amazing amount of smurfs playing the last 2 days.

    Easily spotted tho.

    Last night vs 3 smurfs they tried to run out every single time and we were waiting for them, killed them every single time.

    Is there not a bracket system where they group people by exp level or MMR?

    Sorry to hear that, can be a right pain. Hopefully you keep going, I think you'll find an amazing game at the end of it. I got teamkilled yesterday (I'm level 116 - Gold) as I didn't get the final kill in a 1v5. I had killed 4 by the way. Just some dickheads on there, but that's the internet for you.

    Yeah, Xbox is having similar problems due to the ease of setting up another account. Seen a level 14 yesterday who was wiping the floor on his own.

    Yes, in ranked only I believe. Casual is a free for all.

    I'm hoping to hit level 20 over the weekend and check out ranked.

    You can try ranked as long as one of your group is level 20+

    Sorry Stone, only seeing your message now. They were fine from 10.30 last night when I tried but I headed off early anyway.

    Played there for the first time in ages, new level is cool. Bit if team killing going on, sooner free weekend over the better. Is there ever any discount on the season pass?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,000 ✭✭✭Stone Deaf 4evr


    I'm in an Indian restaurant at the moment and found myself looking at the walls and thinking which ones are breakable and which aren't.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,327 ✭✭✭dunworth1


    redesign of the menu UI on the way

    Helloooooo Diamond rank!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,588 ✭✭✭KonFusion


    I've become too frustrated with this game to play it lately. Found myself playing ranked and coming away every time feeling angry - which kinda defeats the purpose of playing a game for fun :)

    I feel like it's missing the gameplay mechanics to really make it good.

    The biggest thing I wish for is some gameplay mechanic that abandons the game in ranked if somebody quits - like in CS:GO.

    I've gone from Gold to Bronze because I've had half my team in ranked abandon the game, yet I have to keep playing anyway only to inevitably lose and be demoted in rank. It's really made me loathe playing ranked, and I've reached a point where I don't really enjoy casual anymore.

    After getting to level 85 and putting in many hours, it's really disappointing.

    Edit: They also need to fix the ranked bug for new players. I had 3 people on my team in ranked the other day who were all level 1. Obviously we lost.

    I think I'll be restricting my play from here on to playing with a team of friends, or not at all. It's a shame.

    I came in to say how much I'm loving being back playing it and fuse just blew up our whole team, and we were attacking ha.

    I know what you mean. The problem with other fps games is it doesn't feel like it matters a **** what happens. I've gone through bf, cod & titanfall in the last 6 months and after a few weeks I'm just going through the motions where for instance today in r6 I was actually shaking after a game, planted a bomb 4 v 1, killed the 4 of them, and I'm ****e so that was glorious. It has plenty of flaws but it's certainly the closest thing to the perfect fps for me that's around

    Those last stats are fairly damning. They show how infrequently people actually play the game mode, the overwhelming majority of games just being team deathmatch.

    not really you on bomb, you set the charge, and wait in ambush, clear all defenders, you win even though planting the charge is what caused the rush and ended the game you win by defenders dying

    Ranked is totally broken, and pretty much disconnects every game, for either you or a team member. How it is still in Beta one year on I'll never know.

    Some changes from the latest patch -

    •IQ has grenades, Claymore for capitao instead of grenades


    •Mira gadget can be destroyed with the Twitch drone (It destroys the little gas canister below the window.)


    •New twitch headgear


    •Mira: Deployable Shield, C4


    •Jackal: Flash, breach charges


    •Vector has no ACOG


    •Jackal can scan the footsteps and see which operator left those footprints, then the operator gets spotted like with a drone


    •Jackal has 3 charges to spot with his gadget


    •Caveira's footsteps can't be seen from Jackal if she is in silent step

    I don't get the logic behind removing Capitao's grenades, he was overpowered but was always an excellent pick.


  • Administrators Posts: 53,843 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    I guess with the flaming arrows and the grenades he had too much AoE ability.
