R99 is still mostly a streamer/good aim haver gun. You need to really nail a burst to one clip someone. The volt has like an extra 150+ damage of leeway or so.

71.89GB update on Xbox Series X. Is that normal for a new map/season?

double tap trigger is in the crafting rotation, but it was "removed" so there are no guns that can use it

Download kept slowing to a crawl after a while until I paused and unpaused it. Glad I noticed and did that a few times to get it done before work ended. Did anyone else’s battle pass start out at lvl 2? My first impression of the gravity cannons is that they’re a great new way for your squad mates to get separated faster than ever before.

The new map is absolutely loving huge, it takes forever to get anywhere even with the Gravity Cannons. I have a feeling Valk is going to be a premium pick on SP just for the mobility from her ultimate. The upshot is it cuts down pretty noticeably on being third partied. Maybe this will change as people get more familiar with the map (and the streamers collectively agree on a particular spot to drop to die in the first 2 minutes) but I was seeing Round 3 with 5+ squads pretty consistently. I really like the lack of jump towers and think it changes the play dynamics for the better. All the impassable cliff faces help with that as well. I had multiple games where my squad greased 2-3 other squads but still had plenty of upgrades remaining on our kits so it was encouraged to go seek out other POIs/squads instead of finding a spot and sitting tight until the final ring. e: it also feels like they did some performance optimization with this patch

l star is still extremely good, not quite as good at medium longish range but still a beast. the circle aiming trick doesn't seem to be affected by barrel stabs significantly anyway - it kicks more, sure, and the projectiles need a little more precision and maybe one more hit but it's still extremely solid and a beast at anything closer. valk seems good but man the map is clearly actually designed for her which is not fair imo, lol. no balloons, super high walls everywhere which limits both her movement and scouting abilities. map seems very vertical though so her jumpjets are super good. every time an ash would ping a death box of ours we'd turn around and probably kill them.

they should retroactively count every single game you didnt win from prior seasons as a death too

Any CAR trip reports? Didn't have time to do a match last night but firing range fuckery made it seem like an R99 For Bads (me) 301/CAR with a couple of boxes of heavy to avoid eating into the 301's ammo pool might be a good shout for pretty much every encounter

# ? Nov 3, 2021 11:42 |

It's cool but my muscle memory is all r99 so that's all i'm using still. It does kinda own though, wish it'd swap ammo types automatically when i'm out. Hearing an empty click because i'm out of heavy but i've got 400 light that the game hasn't just gone "yeah use this" is a little annoying and definitely cost me a fight with it early on.

It's a good way of getting rid of heavy ammo, yes. I like the dual ammo thing though, especially seeing how the magazines work. Cos you can replace a blue heavy with a purple light, for example, and the benefit carries over to both types of ammo.

# ? Nov 3, 2021 12:23 |

I wish it was a little smarter about mag upgrades. I had a blue light equipped and it refused to switch to a purple heavy
|
# ? Nov 3, 2021 12:32 |

It seemed to upgrade to a better heavy/light mag regardless of what I had when playing yesterday? Pretty nice running it together with a light/heavy weapon and swapping mags between them as you go. The spray still feels a bit rough but maybe it just needs some getting used to.

The one trap I've noticed is it won't automatically balance your magazines out e.g. if you have a CAR with a white light mag and a Flatline with no mag, picking up a blue heavy mag with the CAR drawn will put the mag on the CAR and leave the Flatline still with no mag

I went to the firing range and it seems like a slightly slower R99 with better handling (and maybe a bigger clip... I forgot to check, but I noticed I was downing the dummies with rounds leftover opposed to an empty R99 clip each time). On dropping when down- people even did it during Shadow Royale. My gf and I were playing with random 3rds and about 10% of them would log off if they got knocked. Like, wtf, you get to be a shadow which is, imo, way more fun than being the person that has to survive. Wall run, double jump, 2x running speed, distance melee, infinite knocks until the final round? No thanks, I'm logging... The new map is gorgeous, but SO big. There are so many nooks and crannies. It's going to take awhile to get used to.

it's somewhere between the r99 and volt. it has a slower TTK than the r99 and slightly less damage per clip than the volt.

I kind of like it more than the others (new-map-smell pending), it feels much closer to Battle Royale/Hunger Games type "survive and win", whereas the other maps are significantly more open and smaller so it feels like you're just being funneled into the grinder.
