On the other side of that, being a shield dude and rubbing your face against those firing ports never gets unfunny, then don't know what to do, then eat hot pistol death.

Opinions on Fuze's cluster charge breaching thing?

You'll either whiff twice or kill half the team reliably, always have a Fuze, always have a Thermite.

It really does seem like the operatives are wither completely necessary or near useless. There needs to be a themite on every team but the lady with the shock drone (and bright pink running shoes, wtf) is worse than a recruit

Her saving grace is the DMR rifle rifle rifle rifle that does shotgun levels of damage with each bullet

They have good weapons tho.

I think twitch may become usefull once people start to put ECM and Car battery on every reinforced walls. Problem is the drone is very vulnerable.

Bright pink running shoes woman runs faster than other attackers and can detect cameras and traps, and the shock drone woman gets a hk417

I'm actually really looking forward to this game after having watched a few streams and videos. Any of you going on console for that one? Normally for a game like this I'd go PC but since the console release is at 60 fps I might just get it on PS4 instead (or Xbox one, I'll see which has the most goons on it)

Most of us in beta are on the PC but I can't account for how many will buy for console other than myself

Getting hit by a dude swinging through a window is a 1-shot kill, the more you know.

65 damage per shot apparently, more than a shotgun. Also i killed a guy with her drone last night.

Does anyone take the AUG instead of the other rifle for GSG-9? The AUG seems worse in every way, and for some reason the recoil compensator actually increases the recoil spread.

So does putting bandit's car battery shocker thing on walls or placed cover just damage people touching it? I was hoping a shocked wall prevents thermite charge placement but I don't know.

I'll play same games in ~2 hours, but this game constantly crashes in the menus so I don't know if I'll actually be able to party up. At least it's stable once a game gets going!

And of course, after installing the game I find the servers are toast? After a dozen tries, I haven't been able to play once!

Does the HK417 go through reinforced walls? What about deployable shields? Concrete?

Also what is really the point of LMGs? It doesn't seem like it's ever worth bringing one over an AR.

A large clip size can be pretty useful in several situations. One is when they assume you have an AR and charge in during the "reload". Also tearing apart walls and people behind them, suppression fire, etc

The wild pubbie cannot resist from peeking, he HAS to see what is going on, even in the face of gunfire.

With the LMG you simply pop a window panel and then hold down the trigger.

Normally with a rifle or pistol you'd get one or two short bursts and then have to move to reload, the LMG allows you to sustain that fire and hopefully catch them popping up to surprise you

Trying it on PS4, similar quality but a lot harder to get matches it seems. Plus crashing more

Also look at all these dumb goons wanting to play with other goons but not offering their psn names
