So uh, yeah. the G-Rail's pretty nice, assuming you let the thing fully charge. A one-burst kill, but you must fully charge the thing. Stock's essential, Foregrip's great on it, and I got the Mk2 Rare variant which has increased damage range in my bundle drops. I also got ETH.3N as my first Hero Rig. And also I refuse to use the .44 until I get Akimbo. It might be good as an aiming weapon, but gently caress that I wanna be the robot cowboy with two of the fuckin' things that has a faster hipfire fire rate.

60 no dupe crates haul: - NV-4 Flatline - Type-2 Butcher - DMR-1 Spectacle - EBR Osiris - .44 Marshall (legendary new pistol) Also got a dupe smoothbore from the 6 or so rare boxes I had. Only got the rare G-Rail so I’m kinda annoyed but it’s something to play with for now. Flatline and Butcher are great because I was just about ready to craft them and now I’m up to 18k salvage for other poo poo.

Mister Facetious posted:What about that Erad variant that does basically the same thing? It doesn't actually have homing; if you turn while aiming, the beam can "bend" in ways that make it look like it does. Also the Steel Dragon can target multiple enemies simultaneously, which is the strongest parallel.

No it can't, the Steel Dragon has to kill one at a time, it's just very fast at it because it switches targets by itself once they're dead. Yeah, they're both closer to Zarya's gun in beam mode.

Holy poo poo, it happened. I had a game with noticeable lag and skipping in IW. Still smashed the other team to the ground and cycled wardens before the first one was done and it was fun as gently caress because this game rules. Gauss rifle is... not really worth in this hyperfuck normal gameplay. it should be real nice in HC.

As the guy who wants to love every gun, particularly this one, I don't say this lightly: the Gauss Rifle is total butt right now. It can get one-hit charge shot kills up close, but the requirement to plant your feet for an extended time means any remotely mobile enemy can blunt that advantage. The charge damage dissipates too quickly at range, the recharge time is too long, and the scope sway is too exaggerated to make it viable as a lite sniper. Its rate of fire cap and low recoil means it can land follow-up shots okay, but the scope sway will gently caress you every few shots, and the damage on uncharged shots is crap even at middle range, so expect 5+ hits to kill if you whiff a charge shot. The revolver seems okay but it loses points for being insufficiently stylish. E: Also, this is almost certainly confirmation bias, but after the games we had tonight it felt like they accidentally flipped the negative sign on the parameter that's supposed to keep you from spawning near enemies. Every game was just a ball of people from both teams spawning on the same half of the map. JackGeneric fucked around with this message at 04:33 on Jul 26, 2017 |

I'm trying to get the Man Cave renovations finished so I can CoD it up with you all. Had the guy come in a fix the wall only to find out water is getting into the basement from a busted gutter downpipe. Getting that replaced tomorrow and then hopefully the drywall can get finished this weekend. Being a homeowner is expensive.

water getting into basements loving suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks. I dealt with that like 4 years ago and the water sealing treatment on the walls was all hosed and we had to give the entire basement a couple of coats before putting everything back to where it was.JackGeneric posted:As the guy who wants to love every gun, particularly this one, I don't say this lightly: the Gauss Rifle is total butt right now.

Yeah the gauss definitely needs some work. Epic variant should just have it automatically charge while not in ADS (this would probably make it super loving OP but the current perk kinda sucks). I think if they tweak the damage range and lower the charge up time a little it'd be usable. As it is, it takes just too many bullets to kill uncharged and the risk vs reward of charged isn't there.

The controls are actually really good and it's super fun and charming in its own way but if you're even thinking of playing this in ranked/competitively then it's a huge time skink to grind out all the arms (then upgrading all of said arms). It's really fun for local play with friends, though. I've gotten plenty of fun from it. But what the Switch really needs is IW.

yo so like me and my dudebros used to go play modern warfare 2 back when that first hit and it was awesome because we would be so sweaty from the gym and poo poo and modern warfare 2 was like the premier chill game at the time. i mean you could just bring a 30 pack of natty ice and some friends and some old-rear end tvs and if you got on the multiplayer it was just fuckin awesome because theres all this cool poo poo like two shotguns like the fuckin terminator and rocket launchers and poo poo and balance wasnt a fuckin issue because it was fun as poo poo to just do the cool poo poo. but now i have a job and some bros and like, call of duty just sucks man, you gotta actually put together a class and poo poo and you got some nerds who give a poo poo about their kills and deaths and i- a fuckin responsible adult who still buys natty ice- just wanna fuckin shoot the men with my bros. i mean the space cod could be good but it feels fuckin weird with those nerd guys who can't have fun and want some poo poo like five kills per death or somethin and it's just not fun to focus on killin poo poo man. and now we go to world war 2 with some straight edge and semi gritty poo poo and i'm just like "can i still drink my natty ice and shoot the guys with my bros" and i fuckin doubt it because like you have those same nerds going solo and like quitting mid match because they suck and apparently some poo poo about internet codes and ten hertz? can i just get a game where i shoot the guys without these weird-rear end terms like "meta" and "overpowered" and "loving trash noob kill yourself use a real gun" i just wanna have fun while drinkin with my bros man and i think we're all burning out on doing some poo poo called "charging our JO crystals". i mean it feels good but its just not enough anymore man

He's dropped a little weight and I have him being super active now. A tired dog is a happy dog after all.

So... uh... yeah. There's a reason any CODs work with full parties. Because if you have less than 6, you're probably getting the braindead pubs. And to make matters worse, tonight felt like the bullshit factor went up to a point where I said "Let's just stop playing, game's poo poo with poo poo-minded pubs". I mean, you should not be able to one-burst kill someone with a loving Hailstorm Culling Mk 2. Like, no. It's a poo poo pistol that didn't need the R3K damage range. To make matters worse, cheesy sweaty pubs is something going BOTG is NEVER GONNA FIX. People WILL find the cheese, and people WILL ruin the game. You either roll with the punches or leave, sadly. Which sucks because like, some of the poo poo I saw with WW2's classes seemed fun. Like, fuckin' sign me up for whatever that one perk was that made scorestreaks easier to get. But if it gets nerfed, well GG fuckers. Long story short, I'm shackled to this dead gay series because it at least is there on PS4. And maybe PC, assuming I ever go back to FPSes on PC.
