Best out of 71?

I have, yeah. The issue is that its mobility and ADS stats suck and it can't lay fire like an LMG due to the small mags and low RoF, which puts it in an awkward position. I have no issue with it once you actually start shooting people, but it's getting to that point that's a problem.

IMO the solution would be to give the short barrel a steeper range penalty (apparently it's only 10%!) but a better ADS boost so that it can hit average AR ADS speeds if you stack ADS-boosting attachments. That way your choice is between an LMG that can only get 60-round magazines in exchange for consistency at range, or an AR conversion that actually converts the gun into a slow-firing, long-range AR.

Mostly, I want this because I want to have an L85 that's competitive with the actual in-game ARs. :v:

Yeah that one was ok, it was the MG-34 that got me during the lmgs. It hit like a truck but the reload and overall handling of the gun was rough. Not to mention by far the worst iron sights in the game, for the reptile camos.

The BLOWtorch blueprint for the MG34 changes it to have modern ironsights instead of the vintage WW2 rangefinder so you no longer have a giant metal plate blocking the left of your field of view. I think it was a season 2 blueprint but I'm sure there are other MG34 blueprints that use the same sights.

It's triple-double-xp weekend, don't use boosts, they do nothing, they don't stack.

For some reason it doesn’t apply to the trials, so to get the best exp out of it you need to burn a EXP boost. Burning the 50 odd tickets took less than ten minutes. So the exp gained clearly can have a big effect on battlepass level, considering I gained 7 battlepass levels in ten minutes.

This for trash tickets I was never going to use, was a fun way to unlock a few of the officer challenges so I can start working on them early.

So from what I gather the thing that everyone uses as a meme is in fact, not a meme because it's a slogan that existed before the internet? Got it.

I don't even understand what is making everyone freak out here. Saying that an international corporation like Activision isn't going to look at ACAB in the same way as BLM is just common sense. You don't have to approve of it, but if you honestly think the general public isn't going to find it inflammatory you are delusional. Everyone keeps trying to peg this as some personal opinion I have when I am just stating the fact that the mainstream gets pissed off over it. People got pissed off over BLM 6 months ago too, but now it's widely accepted. Do I think that's going to be the case with ACAB? Probably not, because it's a slogan that is meant to be divisive in it's nature, where BLM is not, unless you twist it around like the "all lives matter" people.

I'm not even passing judgement on it. I'm just stating why a mainstream audience, and therefore COD moderation aren't going to see it as the same thing. If they are actually temp banning people for it I think it's dumb as gently caress, but I was originally addressing a guy that didn't seem to grasp why COD would see any sort of distinction between the two.

I mean, fair I guess. I use LMGs a lot so the slower handling doesn't bother me as much since all the other (good) LMGs also have poo poo handling anyway.

My point is I don't really have problems with its default stats, but the attachments that should convert it into an AR just, don't. They're equivalent to slapping a snatch grip and CQB stock on the PKM - it just makes for an LMG with slightly better handling. Basically, there's no way to actually convert it into an L85, stat-wise.

It's especially silly since the only difference between the L85 and L86 is that the L86 has a longer barrel and a bipod, otherwise they're literally the same gun. :v: Meanwhile, the attachments that make the MG36 into a G36C actually do give it AR handling/movespeed, so that's what I wish they would do with the short barrel on the L86.

Correct. The Russian means “or we’re bound to repeat it” or something close enough to it. This is in addition to the new intel which hints that an unnamed operative is locked in the Gulag.

And I think the crates sent to streamers are meant to open today so I expect the first WZ event to take place this week, hopefully.

EDIT: Crates sent to streamers are opening today at noon EST so keep an eye to see what that is all about.

I posted this on the discord but if you're playing WZ on controller on PC, set this up:



If you're on PS4 or Xbox you can plug in a USB keyboard to enable this option.

You can press and hold the plate button until you start plating and then release it, and you will continue to plate until you're full or out of plates, or cancel by retapping the plate button, which means your thumb can go back to helping you move while you run up a stairwell.
