If the last team is housecamping it generally means they are either really bad or have very low confidence in their ability to win a fight. Just toss a bunch of nades in there and prove them right

Grenades are really good in this game. Like if you had a hero who didn't have weapons but could carry more grenades, they would probably be overpowered. Also there is nothing quite like the "gently caress you" factor of throwing thermite on a downed opponent.

If they're posted up in a small house with no room to maneuver then they probably suck, but defending a large house with strong sightlines and plenty of room to get away from nades is strong as hell and there's no way to get in that the caustic won't know about. Caustic is like a defensive recon hero in the final circle and it's nearly impossible to flank them.

Yeah, it's hard to disassociate the abbreviation when it's been shorthand for Team Fortress 2 for over a decade.

You basically just set up so that the enemy takes the initiative in the fight against your advantageous position, but you still push out when appropriate.

The hologram is incredibly fun and good, but his ult is incredibly situational and his passive is near worthless.

Bohemian Nights posted:I'll grant you that it's probably possible to play around a good caustic player in a defensive fashion, but in all my games I have yet to see this mythical unicorn or even lose against a team playing static defense Caustic is also good in linear/claustrophobic hot drops like swamps (decent), bunker (omg just shut down the entire central map chokepoint why dontcha), and supply ship (vince mcmahon gif). Or, as was mentioned, if you're fighting around a location like a house or whatever. In a game where flanking is one of the most powerful things you can do, Caustic shuts down flanks. When you embrace that, its great. He is also just a shooting man with a fat hitbox in open space, and his ult can absolutely buddyfuck your entire squad if used when pushing aggressively. I started slampicking bloodhound in pubs specifically because of One lovely Caustic Ult screwed our vision right as we pushed into a squad in Cascades. Usually in games "situational" is a diplomatic way to say "fuckin awful" but Caustic genuinely is situationally good, it's just that he's situational in a game in which it is also possible to select Bangalore, Lifeline, Bloodhound, or Wraith.

At least you can sit behind a corner and throw out holo to see if it gets shot. The ult is "HEY EVERYBODY! I'M DISENGAGING! JUST THOUGHT YOU'D LIKE TO KNOW THAT I'M USING WRAITH'S TACTICAL RIGHT NOW, OKAY THANKS BTW YOU CAN STILL FOLLOW ME IF YOU WANT.

In a game in which you can die in under a second, making someone look the wrong way is incredibly powerful. His ability requires nuance tho, so most people are just terrible with it.

His ult is best when the enemy doesn't see it happen and he moves to flank. He's a lot harder to spot when you aren't looking for him.

I think you'd be better served using his ult to attack than to run away. He's not really hard to see in any normal situation or if someone is chasing him, but if people are preoccupied in a fight, using the ult to get in close without being seen can be a real killer- just don't pop it somewhere where everyone can see the bunch of holograms

Guys I am just the worst scrub ever at this game. I'm a much more casual gamer than the majority of posters in this thread to start with, and when I played heavy I only played 3rd person action games. I've actually platinum'ed dark souls and bloodbourne, but haven't played an online shooter since halo 2, and I'm on the PS4, which I know is already a major sin in online shooting. But it's a level playing field with other PS4 users, and I'm averaging like 80 dmg per round, and I'm just barely managing to get 1 kill per level played. I love the tactile feeling of playing this game, but drat getting smoked over and over is discouraging. I feel like my aim is bad and I get killed a lot when I'm distracted by something like looting. I get jumped often, or get in firefights with one party and get shot in the back by another all the time, or just feeling like I'm missing the majority of my shots in a panic in tense firefights. The only equity I'd wish for this game is age-restricted queue matchmaking, even though I know that will never ever happen and it's not even on anyones radar. I'm mid 30s, I'd love to be placed in a matchmaker queue that grouped similar ages together so I don't feel like I'm being aced by nimbly-bimbly 12-year-olds every round. I accept my failures as my own, any significant input from you guys beyond "git gud"?

Olaf The Stout posted:I accept my failures as my own, any significant input from you guys beyond "git gud"? I guess this can be construed as a "git gud", but it sounds like the only solution to your problem is to just play more. Sure you're on a level playing field, but you're still up against other people who likely have a lot more experience playing shooters with a controller, and the only way to remedy this is to play more shooters with a controller- I don't think there's some magical fix that'll make you get better other than to just grind it out for a while. It sucks to get constantly stomped, but eventually you'll get better through sheer osmosis and experience Also, I'm nearing your age dangerously fast, and due to extremely poor life choices and priorities I can still run through all these 12 year olds, so it's definitely not your old age that's stopping you! We're all grandpa gamers here

For example, looting; you’ll start to understand exactly what you want out of a pack, and you’ll scroll to where it is (or notice it’s not there) and select it rather than spending ages looking at everything.

priznat posted:For a lifeline newblet is it best to call down the ult as quick as possible? Short answer: mostly, yea, as long as you call it down in cover you can defend. Long answer: The pod is visible from everywhere on the map and is a sign to every single team that a) there's a squad right where the bright burning beacon is touching down b) they aren't going to be moving for about 20-30 seconds c) they have at least a couple level 3 items, probably more So just realize that her ult, while massively valuable, is also an irresistible dinner bell for every remaining squad. Using it in the center of the ring is a really good way to get tag-teamed by like 3 other squads converging on you. e; vvvv this is High Tier Bigbrain lifeline play, good wisdom in the next post Willie Tomg fucked around with this message at 22:02 on Mar 3, 2019 |
