    is there anyone considered kinda strong at the moment. TBH the new characters dont appeal to me at all. Lots of small crappy traps? Even if they're good just seems boring.

    my go to characters would be: in no particular order

    Ash, hibana, Fuze, Thermite, Twitch on attack

    Pulse, Jager, Ela, Lesion, Valkyrie, Rook on defense.

    Its always myself that lets me down though, although I've been trying to play a little more agressively lately. Its still hard to get out of the 'find a corner and wait to die/surive' mentality.

    Ela's gun is amazing. And I'm finding lesions traps very handy. Plant far enough away from a room entrance that they feel safe taking it off and pounce then.

    I don't like the new attacker at all. The gun has too much recoil.

    I have started playing with Buck again. The problem is that on ranked you always need someone more than buck. Ash, Thermite, Thatcher etc are all better picks for your team. But I'm loving Buck on casual.

    Hibana more often then not for me on attack. The ability to open up a room with those charges is great.

    Liesion 95% of the time on defense. The traps are great audio cues. Put it by a door. Barricade the door. Hide. Trap goes off. Shoot through the door!

    If you complete all the situations you will have enough renown to get 4 or so characters.

    I have not played this in so long, the new operators dropped the last time I played it.

    Must try to get back into it but the new operators dont seem that appealing as was said, going very COD with electrical gadgets and stuff hope its not a new trend.

    Thing is they still only have the one gadget and each time they introduce someone it mixes up the meta a bit. Just a bit though. They don't want to mess it up too much.

    Do a few terrorist hunts too. Just to get the feel for a few of the maps.

    Just a warning though. This game has a huge learning curve. I think it's about 100 hours of play before you can go into a ranked match and not be slaughtered. having said that, it's a lot of fun playing casual. Just try not to get too frustrated in those games where you get 0 kills and 5 deaths :)

    I've played it a few times since, it's still a great game, but it's true that the new operators dampened my enthusiasm a bit. Not a fan of them and they have changed the dynamic. Part of it would also be the fact that I played the **** out of this.

    Roger Wilco.

    I surprised myself in my first plane training, accidental headshots on 9 of 11 terorists.
    Had to buy Ash after that :cool:

    Also, try not to get frustrated with the team killing in casual.

    In Matimo's latest video he mentions that they might be bring in a report toxicity button so you can report abusive players. If they do, it'll be a welcome move.

    I believe that has gone live in the PC test server.

    TBH, if they did mirror damage it would be a lot better , its way too easy to just make another account and troll away to your hearts content.

    I tried a few online matches and got creamed.

    I also fell off the roof.
    Got revived.
    Somehow killed myself with an explosive trying to enter a window 30 seconds later.

    Once you unlock Fuze remember to use his special on the hostage room for easy wins.

    been there, done that.... last week.

    And I'm over level 200.

    I also unloaded a clip of an LMG into a team mate because he stepped in front of me and I got spooked.

    theres nothing quite like the 'woops' feeling when you perfectly nail a 1 bullet headshot.


    on your teammate who decided to peek the same corner you were covering.

    Then the nervous start to the next round when you know you might have to get it on in spawn

    When I shoot a teammate by accident, I tend to crouch and look at the ground subserviently. Normally gets me away with it! :pac:

    Will have a few games tonight I think.

    If anyone new to PC would like to play with others send us an invite kdjac on uplay.


    I may have mentioned once or 300 times that this game needs to be played with others on comms. I dont play random on my own with others ever and i have it since it came out 2 years ago.

    I've actually mostly played with randomers. Maybe not ideal, but what can you do?
