Arcella posted:This is the biggest oversight with removing lobbies and restarting matchmaking after every round, is flipping the coin and repeatedly getting heads. It's compounded by the fact that Rust lobbies are essentially act like black holes that forever to launch because of the sheer number of people joining into them and immediately leaving because rust is such a poo poo map, so you just get dumped into one of the dozen never-launching rust lobbies over and over until you luck into a shipment lobby that isn't full

Yeah i figured I'd level some guns last night while the XP bump was still in effect and was just dropping from every Rust lobby and I quit after it was rust probably 25 times in a row. I'm pretty much at the point where I won't even play it anymore. I think it's just about the worst map I've ever seen in a video game. That post was for you Jase

I didn't have too much trouble getting Shipment games, but I still didn't get enough out of my double XP tokens as I would have liked. Still not great they continue to tick down outside of matches. Love to get hit markers on shipment with the 680 with range increasing mods both with and without slugs.

It's not that I mind Rust so much as I just love Shoothouse and losing that 24/7 lobby really makes it harder for me to play for more than a game or two without getting frustrated. There should be a feature where you can choose your favorite X(where X is a number that is reasonably high so that you have to be good at more than just one or two maps) maps and don't have to worry about avoiding the ones you hate.

Still not great they continue to tick down outside of matches. Like the other guy said; slugs are dog poo poo. Just accept that you'll need to get closer than you would like to kill a motherfucker. And use the R9-0. Having a second follow-up shot helps make sure they go down quick.

I'm almost done with it anyway, I've unlocked most of the camos too just playing shipment.

I think the challenge generator is broken. One of my daily challenges is to get 45 kills with an enemy weapon shortly after picking it up.

And?

Every other occurrence of that type of challenge is 5 or less. Edit: And the daily is broken and doesn't track kills anyway. Aphrodite fucked around with this message at 02:20 on Feb 25, 2020 |

whats the deal with Rust only allowing one field specialist? the last 2 days I have played it defaults to only 1 field specialist slot.

Playing ground war with the solitary and express purpose of running people over in cars, trucks, tanks and whatever else for that stupid ribbon is quite fun

Decided I've had enough of sweating and built a full kit dedicated to running as fast as humanly possible, equipped only with 2 throwing knives and a melee knife. Shipment is fun again!

Just a PSA to say that if you haven’t tried playing Ground War as a GTA clone you absolutely owe it to yourself to do so, it’s way more fun than it has any right to be The farm and port maps are ideal for this, find yourself either a jeep or a cargo truck and hoon around the side of the map then back up the flanks to splat people sniping from the sidelines Even on farmland I was driving slaloms through the middle because most players don’t bother to waste bullets on a speeding jeep, and then when my jeep got hosed I bailed, sniped a dude, jumped into the nearest window and came out the other side of the house into a fresh jeep to continue my vehicular manslaughter. I was contributing pretty well to the team too as my squad mates kept spawning in on me while I was well behind enemy lines to cap flags Had the biggest blue balls on port as I was driving a truck down the loading bay next to D flag, bearing down on a totally oblivious dude running away from me, metres from pancaking him when from from nowhere a cruise missile nailed me and saved the guy. The killcam was awesome

CJacobs posted:Maaan, "Run over 50 enemies with vehicles" kinda sucks as a rank challenge. Does the wheelson count? Can you even mow people down with it? That's the only way I could see it not being a really annoying grind. Wheelsons count, and it sucks as a challenge.

Running over people in shipment with the wheelson is the only way I can think of to do it

Is it possible to go past 100% move speed if you're using a high mobility SMG with movement speed mods? There are a few that theoretically could get over 100 using short barrels and no-stock

Well at least sometimes this week we'll have Shoothouse instead of Rust after rounds of Shipment.

Odd question but does anyone know of a blueprint for a version of the EBR-14 with no stock? I swear I've seen someone using one but I can't think of what blueprint it could be to save my life.

There isn't a no-stock mod for the EBR

Butterfly Valley posted:There isn't a no-stock mod for the EBR I know I just didn't know if there were any blueprints that had weapon changes that couldn't be achieved from having all the unlocks, and it seems there aren't. Best I can figure is I was just seeing someone using a no-stock GRAU with the long barrel + suppressor and no extended mag so it looked like an EBR.

Ive been playing COD games since the OG MW and it still drives me insane that there is OHK snipers on body shots in core mode, and that the scope in speed for the largest scopes in the game is as fast as the fastest iron sights. you could immediately fix the biggest complaints from non-snipers in this game by fixing that poo poo.

Laserface posted:and that the scope in speed for the largest scopes in the game is as fast as the fastest iron sights. What? Pretty sure this is not true, I mean, if quick scoping is what you're referring to then yeah I guess it counts, but you're still not fully scoped in, past a certain distance it's unreliable for most people.

Eh, It's really not the scope speed being the fastest, it's that they are quickscoping (i.e abusing the auto aim by quickly tapping ADS) and if snipers were a two body shot kill they would be literal garbage considering how many other weapons are a 1 shot kill or TTK equivalent in this game. It's annoying as hell and I sure wouldn't complain if it was gone, but it's pretty much always been part of COD and I don't even see it that much compared to other ones. E: beaten
