Just got a 15 from Battleye for using AHK, which is the only way for Shadowplay to record your mic with PTT on a mouse button. I hate everything.

That's downloading for an upcoming patch. I assume they thought 100k/s wouldn't disrupt anyone's Internet. I just removed the cap.

Not sure if cheaping out is the right choice of words, In limited environment like MP or consoles, coding realistic water ( reflection, physics, new set of animations if you can go swim etc) can be super costly. Sometimes devs prefer investing that memory somewhere else.

Not talking about whether this particular pool will have water or not it was just a FYI about the :pcgaming: Marvellous World Of Game Design :pcgaming: and why so many ''none watery'' games lacks it or make it inaccessible.

So can we disable the secret ocean on favela? because that map still runs like doodoo.

Also new map looks fantastic, can't wait. You have to add swim trunks and sandal cosmetics for all operators now

Yeah, I'm well well aware of the effort it takes to implement water, but I still get disappointed every time I come across an empty pool.

I did this and could have stopped it, but nothing in nature ever follows a gaussian curve. Sure, they'll tell you that it does. They say that every five minutes someone dies in a car accident, but how often are there seven hundred and sixty one armless and legless corpses in one hangar?
Is there a setup for my guns that's considered ideal? Do I want a certain sight over another, or is it just whichever I think would be best for looking at the bad guys? Do the other players see my laser sight?

Don't use laser sights as everyone sees the dot (and I don't really notice much of an increase in hip-fire accuracy anyway, in all honesty), aside from maybe if you're a shield user.
In any case, I normally use the red dot sight on all guns aside from the semi-auto DMRs as well as Thermite+Hibana's rifles (which I use ACOG sights on). This is because I don't think you really need the added magnification for the vast majority of guns as most combat will take place in CQB scenarios, and I find the added peripheral with red dot sights is more useful.

Oh, I hadn't noticed that (although I rarely use shotguns, so no surprise there), although I did hear in this thread that aiming down the sight actually makes the pellet grouping tighter/smaller as well. If so, do both advantages stack, and make an ultra-tight grouping? :D

One bonus plus another bonus equals two bonuses (or rather, one larger bonus)? :D I wasn't being serious when I said that, though - frankly there shouldn't be bonuses to how tight your buckshot grouping is, aside from distance to target.

If laser dots were a general accuracy improvement instead of just useless firing then people might use it

I use ACOGs on every gun that will take them because it makes it easier for my lovely old man eyes to pick out assholes hiding in the shadows with just their little ski mask peeking out. I still die to that way too often.

When I get back to playing, I need to turn down my settings people have been saying to see if that helps.

Yeah, I use ACOGs not for the zoom really but just because its makes it easier to find guys heads hiding behind a desk between two lamps and a pile of books.

The ACOG is good, but I still prefer the others most of the time. If I need to pick a head out of noise then they're probably waiting for me and I'm already dead. I don't like losing so much peripheral vision most of the time. I think the ACOG is more valuable for defenders.

Yeah, I totally agree with this. I particularly like the ACOG on Jager, and being the aforementioned defender hiding behind a desk between two lamps and a pile of books. (Although normally I find myself using Bandit, in which case I'm going 100% CQB, so I use the red dot sight on him, anyway.)

Yeah, it gets pretty annoying after the first couple of times. I can accept it being slow for the first round (since sometimes my PC takes a little longer than the average time for round one even, and I don't have issues with other games), but if it's like that every round? Yeah nah, it's time to buy a new machine
