Two new guns are both good. Just don't put the 300mm barrel on the not-UMP, it decreases the range by 10% instead of increasing it :downs: The ADS is so quick with a stippled grip equivalent I don't think you'd want anything but the 400mm anyway

Finally saw my first cheater. His snap to people was far too consistent and good every time even if it wasn't locking on for headshots. Guy was consistently getting 5+ kills back to back and aiming at people with very little notice. Not the obvious pre aim or headshots but way too consistent over and over

Dataminers have picked up on BR weekly challenges and missions. In addition to this, there 9 weeks worth of MP challenges (compared to 8 weeks of BR weekly challenges) so it looks like next tuesday is going to be the BR drop.

drat, the Gilded Holger is one ballin rear end gun. Leveling up the battle pass was worth it for this skin alone.







Look at this thing, it's like Deus Ex Human Revolution in gun form. :whatup:

The new AR is broken in such a good way. Been abusing it because the nerf will come either tomorrow or soon after.

My favorite feature of this game is when you get frozen at the menu for 15 seconds straight once every minute.

It's honestly fine? Worse than the TAR/M4 up close, but with better dropoff ranges, so it's better midrange.

Once you get the AK recoil control attachments it’s a fun gun.

I haven’t even been able to play for like three days and I’m frankly concerned about whether I will even be able to unlock both guns before the battle pass ends :(

The guns are at tiers 15 and 31 and you still have over 50 days for the season to end. You're fine. And if last season is any indication if for some reason you can't get the guns / play at all, they become unlockable via challenges once the season ends

It has abnormally long damage falloff ranges for a 5.56 AR combined with very good movement speed and ADS stats, and you can slap +40% range on it basically for free once you have the medium barrel unlocked.

Rust is great, especially when people spawn directly in view of the tower while someone (you) is sitting on it and you can just kill them in the 0.5 seconds it takes to realize they've respawned. The ruins also have lots of great little parkour spots like on top of the house next to the ladder and the pipe at the very far end.

Did you try restarting the game? That usually fixed busted challenge counts.

I was really hating Rust because I'm an older player so I tend to get poo poo on by the teens that run all over the map with SMG's/725's and just insta-gib but I've started to love it by just backing out until I get an objective game mode and sitting on the top of the tower with my weapon of choice + fully loaded and getting a chopper gunner/gunship at least once a game or so.

Am I a bad person? Yeah

Am I having fun? Also yeah

Will I stop any time soon? No

After playing it more my opinion on Rust is I think it might actually have more spawnkilling than Shipment does between the tower and how much of the map is open sightlines.

I wouldn't say it's more, but it's more annoying because you are more likely to get repeatedly spawn killed without being able to take anyone with you. At least in shipment your just as likely to get a free triple kill as getting spawn killed.

I was having fun with it at first, and in a good game you can get a ton of kills but it can just be so obnoxious especially if you are stuck on the bad team.

As far as completely idiotic grindy maps go, I'll take shipment over rust, and as far as actual good close quarters maps go I'll take shoot house. Rust is a turd.

I am a spectacularly bad poster and everyone in the Schadenfreude thread hates my guts.
Just finished a tournament in runner up position and now it's stuck on the post tourney bracket still saying 'waiting for other players to ready up' and threatens me with a penalty if I quit?

I want that charm reward, will I still get it if I quit or should I wait or what

Edit: I quit and still had the rewards

we all thought they got rid of loot boxes from games but COD has just made the maps themselves the lootbox. sometimes you spawn and win (get some kills) most of the time you spawn and lose (just die again)

It’s the amount you sway when you ADS in general. Scope or not.

Yeah outside of maybe pistols, aim stabilization/aim walking stability are useless. I will always give up aim stability for recoil control.

Everything on Rust is dumb. I haven't played a single game on it that wasn't a huge clusterfuck.
