I dont really think the gun meta is that important since i regularly out-gun people using the 'wrong' weapons. There is definitely a few best in class but you are always going to win a gun fight if you have positioning and the element of surprise. picking something that works to your playstyle is far better than stacking attachments for a 2 frame ADS advantage.


They gotta do something about jump-shooters though holy gently caress it is annoying.

God yes, every FPS I’ve ever played has annoying jump shooters. Just make it so you can’t hold your aim when landing or something, jeez.

I like sliding around corners but it is riskier because I seem to get headshot more when I do it, being down lower. Jumping has no real risk other than looking like a complete tool.

Man, how do you guys even play this game on PC? I have a really high end machine, and the BR mode hitches to the point unplayabaility when there's a gunfight.

Anyway, Rumble was disappointing, it's just Ground War TDM where you parachute in. I thought it was going to be like the Blackout 50v50 which was amazing.

Yes, the further away from the skill ceiling you get the less relevant 'meta' becomes, but that's true of any game and it doesn't make the meta not important as a whole. It's less relevant in core because you'll naturally find your SBMM cap. If you're running off-meta your cap will just adjust accordingly. If anything it's a good selling point for SBMM. But typically "meta" discussions are centered around people playing at a professional level and what they're using to win, not what the average casual is using.

Make it no ADS while jumping, there. So it might have a use hip-firing around a corner or something, but it's useless beyond 10 meters.

I would also add no ads while dropping to prone. Obviously ads during prone is fine, but not during the transition.

does aim assist vary depending on what gun you are using?

I get the feeling that the OHK sniper/Kar98 would be a lot more balanced if they didnt get the same aim assist as every other gun in the game. the AA varied on weapons in halo MP which made the sniper an actual skill to use instead of the quick-scoping bullshit you see in COD.

combine that with the no jumpy shooty rule and we got something.

Yeah I noticed a lot of people suddenly go prone in the middle of a firefight (that's called dolphindiving right?). Did some streamers recommend this tactic? Anyways I don't mind, makes them easier targets :D

Dolphin diving was a thing you could do in the older games where you jumped and then went prone in the air, which made your hitbox smaller. If you try to do that in this game you just do a power-slide to prone as soon as you land. Going prone from standing is called dropshotting and it's good because it forces the enemy to adjust to aim down at you if you do it fast enough. Not so useful with controller aim assist though because it'll just suck their aim down to ground level with you because controllers are lame and a crutch

Head on prone folks are almost always headshotted so it seems more dangerous to go prone now especially with the slow changing to rotate the body left/right.. I don't see a lot of divers tbh it's mostly psychics who can lock on to your noggin 0.3 milliseconds after turning a corner.

It's funny now how easy the gunfights become in warzone/plunder after playing a lot of core mp though.

Yeah a lot of the time when I try to dropshot I just end up getting killed with a headshot because it turns out the other guy was aiming at center mass and so I just ducked down into his bullets. :shepface:

Back when we played Battlefield 4, there was this 10 year old kid that somehow ended up infiltrating the goon PS4 group and we played with him for a while, because a bunch of people thought it was funny and he was pretty chill for the most part so it was nbd. Anyways, one day I remember watching him fall of a cliff and splat on the rocky beach below and scream "the rocks in this game are so op!"

I know it's barely related to this at all but it still makes me laugh when I think about it.

The issue isn't the rocks, it's all the operators high-speed low-dragging too many tactical doritos.

You go horizontally much faster when you cut the parachute and have your gun out. Tell me why I shouldn’t immediately be cutting, go sideways, open again right when the gun goes away, cut again. Am I losing 9 milliseconds by doing this? I need hard data or I cannot be the best gamer I can be.

Yes the auto-aim assist ranges are by weapon class. In previous CODs snipers did not get any assist and now they get it. The ranges go from least to most by weapon class as you’d expect, but I’m not sure if snipers get any hipfire assist.
