I object to using LMG silencer because the fun for me is spraying at a wall for 10+ seconds then getting shot from the side by someone whose footsteps I didn't hear. Without that, I might as well just use some kind of normal gun with only 30 round magazines!

How is this game on the PS4 for solo play if I’m completely fine solo queueing CoD/BF/every other mp game? This didn’t catch my interest early on but I’ve been searching everywhere for a new shooter and can’t avoid the Siege hype.

There's a bunch of ps4 goons playing. Also siege is like CSGO were it's single rounds no respawn

CoD and BF1 is essentially deathmatch, siege is not

You can solo easily, the game is good and you'll enjoy it, but it's a lot better with a crew

It does reduce the stk on Forst, but it makes it laser accurate and it also removes tracers, so the person you're shooting at doesn't get an idea of your location until you hit them.

There is a dope-looking SWAT clone coming out in the future called Ready or Not. They're putting a ton of work in enemy AI:

quote:

Artificial Intelligence

For the last year, we’ve been writing Suspect and SWAT AI that will challenge the player and act realistically. Our suspect AI can be surprisingly spontaneous and very lethal. For example, failure to restrain a suspect may result in them getting up when the SWAT are no longer around, and finding something to defend themselves with. Players will have to be strategic and mindful of their surroundings, and use the tools provided to ensure rooms are safe before and during entry

For single-player, players will be placed in the shoes of the SWAT team leader with four officers under your command. The AI for our SWAT needed to be both robust and independent, in the sense that they will act in a manner that conveys a high level of tactical training whilst also being able to act dynamically if needed. This means realistic entry techniques, holding smart angles when waiting for commands, and so on. SWAT will drop chem-lights in cleared rooms, make arrests and collect evidence in their vicinity upon command if the area is clear.



Oh yea there is also supposed to be a crazy gore system :nws::nws::

Not necessarily.
That kind of realistic gore might be there to disincentive you from killing the suspects.

I on the other hand am super-down to see just how graphic a realistic game can get.

I'm not sure if they're going to be focusing on making it exactly like SWAT but they do have less-lethal stuff and you can arrest dudes. They seem to be trying to make a CQB simulator as much as they want to make a spiritual successor to the SWAT games.

I’ll still consider Siege. I hate no respawn shooters but if this game is really something special it might be worth giving it a shot. I wonder if there’s going to be another free weekend? I missed the last one.

It's worth mentioning that since a huge part of this game is about intel from watching cameras and stuff, the round doesn't really just end for you once you die, there's still a bunch you can do by observing and giving callouts and stuff. I hate no respawn in CS but it pretty much never even crosses my mind in Siege, you nearly always feel busy. YMMV in solo queue though, I don't do that much and I bet people don't bother listening to your callouts as much.


also yeah there will definitely be another free weekend at some point, they seem to happen every few months or so.

Yeah that’s the thing, I don’t mic up or play in groups soooooo. Might be boned on that end.

I’m absolutely going to play the next free weekend and try to get into it. The love this game gets is refreshing since the gaming community usually just shits on everything.

Tried booting this game up and playing a casual match for the first time since the update.

Completely unplayable. Constant rubberbanding that would face me in a completely different direction. Totally disorienting, every 3rd shot was a noreg, despite having 17 ping the network icons were flashing like crazy along the top of my screen. I don't know what the gently caress happened or if it's on my end, somehow, but it's the worst the game has ever been.

Also three of the people on my team got zero kills.
