Anyone else get the shakes when you play siege? I get really bad anxiety shakes for my first few matches and it messes up my aim a bit

I used to get that a lot when playing fighting games against strangers. It'll stop happening once you get more confident in your gameplay and stop taking every match so seriously.

Kept playing some more games today. Eventually I got used to the desync and it seemed to have calmed down a bit, noticeable but not so disorienting and crippling. Enough that I managed to get 10 kills in a match and pull off some pretty sweet plays and clutches. Mira is good. Shotgun secondary is good. Wallbanging is good. That is all.

Had some really good rounds today, owing it all to playing with a 5 stack. It's fun to show people who've missed a season all of the new mechanics and changes. Went 11-2 coastline and I feel like I know that map pretty well at this point, and I'm "comfortable" on it. Wish I could say the same for some other maps

Basically I will endlessly post about how APAC goons should play together, even to people who already do so because apparently having your SA name match your Uplay or Discord names is an abomination, and they should all be both different and endlessly changing. (Come play with us, and hear me remind everyone every night the PMM is loving nuts and legitimately better than most primary guns.)

Huh, I've had a match simply not count. At the end of it there was some server hiccup, and we all got 0 renown, the party system fell apart and our chances for alpha packs were all dropped to zero. After restarting the game it appeared we kept out rank, renown and alpha pack chance like the match didn't count. Which was cool cause we got owned

Gets those juices flowing and I can't aim the next round. You'll get over it eventually.

keyframe posted:New charm challenge is to win 2 pandemic missions.. Actually managed that in three tries. Every so often you get pubbies who are actually pretty capable. A useful thing (that the game apparently forgets to mention) is that if you fail in the last section and hit "Retry", you restart the mission from the halfway point (where the level change is). Particularly the mission where you save Jäger can be done pretty quickly that way.

They seriously reset the event challenges this week? Are the old charm challenges just gone? Guess I can go gently caress myself for not getting around to it.

Yeah I didn't get Blackbeard's Birthday charm, which is a shame because the new birthday charms are pretty cool. But destroying 20 gadgets was hard for me in Casual, where a lot of the times your opponents don't set up anything in any predictable places!

Not to get all smuggo but I'm pretty disappointed with the difficulty on pandemic. Left 4 Dead at the higher difficulties feels like an entirely different game that's immensely more threatening. Outbreak just feels mostly the same but with friendly fire. I mean it's still not easy, but I haven't once felt the need to adjust how I play it--maybe feeling incentivized to make use of stealth or something, or stick together more or something.

The real challenge is that most of the matchmaking dumps you with level 11 people who are clearly not up to any challenge.

Apparently there's already been a possible leak/datamining for the next two ops: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qU0Hp2CaLQI Not a lot of detail yet, but the gadget IDs are apparently "BulletproofCamera" and "DecoyProjectile". Supposedly the latter one can spawn some sort of hologram.

There are Vigil lines referring to a decoy, so who knows if that'll be an actual Italian ability or not. Still, bulletproof cams sound sweet.

I just want vigil to be able to cloak during lions scan and not be detected. It would give his ability (which is ok) at least one really good thing.

Lion's ability is a big rear end sound wave, vigil's got optic camo, I don't get it Even from a gameplay only perspective I want less situations where there's one op who can can counter something, like echo not being called by dokkebei. I don't want the game to become like dota where there's a bunch of one off, weird counters in a laaarge pool of characters

I think the next two ops will have one Lion counter. It's probably the decoy op

So basically everybody just needs to blast Darude's Standstorm on full volume and they'll be safe from Lion.
