dogstile posted:Lol, why would they punish you for it? It's not like you're abusing a glitch, if you've had time to hit up every replicator on the map, not get ganked and survive that long in the final circle, you've probably earned the win, tbh. To runchild's point before, you'd be cheesing a new item in an unintended method (that, again, probably wouldn't even work to get you the win) versus people that actually 'played the game' to get to the final circle. Not saying it would be easy by any means but it still seems somewhat lovely to attempt..

I think it’s lame, but I don’t think it’s to the level that Respawn would actually punish people for it. Way back in the day it was possible to pull off basically the same thing with Lifeline and a ton of healing items. They didn’t punish anyone for doing it AFAIK, but they did put a stop to it by adjusting ring damage numbers and making D.O.C. stop working outside the ring.

I'm not sure wraith battles was intended for final circles either, but same thing, they're not gonna punish you because they didn't think about it. You're not abusing a glitch, giving yourself extra health/hiding off the map, etc. As a Dev you'd never want to punish people because you didn't think your hot (heh) new item is as good as it is. Imagine banning caustics because using their gas isn't "playing the game" because the other people wanted to shoot. Weird, arbitrary line. Worth noting that i'm fairly sure this is entirely possible, getting 75 per location + 5 per box + an extra five for lifeline if someone else opens the box first and then she uses her passive on it, then three squadmates each having two charges. Then I suppose you can grab an extra couple of seconds by letting yourself take a little bit of ring damage before deploying the next one and lifeline healing/syringing. Super lame, but i'm willing to bet if I bothered to try tonight I could cheese out a few wins.

Frankly I would applaud anyone who beat me with heat shield spam. Instead of camping near a replicator, during the LTM you could just hang out in a place with a dozen death boxes. I had a great win last night where I chained heat shields together, looting them from death boxes as I went, to rescue a banner and respawn them. I think I used 10 heat shields in total lol

Does anyone know the voice actor behind Maggie? She sounds very much like Rachel House from Hunt for the Wilderpeople, Soul, and others.

I like the Maggie line is "what're you waiting for, go take his arm" because it implies that her blowing off Fuse's arm was, in fact, a go to move and something she does just as one of her things.

I dunno, i kinda hate it because now it seems like literally everyone is dropping straight away because otherwise you see nobody for 10+ minutes. It's a cool experiment but i'm sad its continuing on further than today.

Was looking forward to the next game mode since the giant ring is kinda bad and ended up losing a game to a endgame flare popping instantly on our revenant totem which might of created some resentment for it. I still don't understand why they couldn't of just deleted that audiofile for the heat shield, it's way too loud and unnecessary even if it wasn't MAX VOLUME FOR THE ENTIRE SERVER and why a fix for this bug would take a full week.

I don't understand how they make such decent audio clips (all the guns sound great, most of the ques are great) but they suck so badly at equalisation. Like, do they not have an audio guy on the team? Or do they load the game up, hear the menu music being 50x louder than the loading music and go "COOL WE DID IT" I r no audio man, I know it's not trivial in general, but I feel like they get all the difficult audio stuff right then gently caress up the easy stuff?

Their sound engine has something wrong with it, remember that you can crank up the volume and hear all heals being applied to all players. I have no idea how it's so hosed up but it's been hosed up since launch.

Anyway I decided to play ranked this season to avoid the flare bullshit and having no placements feels kinda unfair. Here's a 22 kill game cut up into the kills https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InXu1xOzPvA E: And this is just me stamping on someones head with the kraber because lol https://streamable.com/h5324n

These flare modes are the worst thing I think maybe ever added to this game. Respawn have had an impressive run of not really missing the mark on any updates but this is the first one where I'm actively thinking I'd rather play ranked to avoid it

Feels like the flares are a solution to a problem that doesn't exist in unranked. If the game was excessively campy and nobody ever moved, then yeah I could see the flares maybe being interesting to force some action but as it is now like dogstile said if you don't jump early you never loving see anybody it's absurd.

They need to test multiple drop ships on different sides of the map at the start of the game to more evenly spread out the people who only know how to drop straight down to a named area beneath them. Then maybe unranked games would see more then 3 squads alive by the time the first ring is closing.

By the way Mirage is being slept on as a Actual Good Character now that his bamboozlements are through the roof, clones having footstep noises fools so many people and makes it so there are very few ways to actually tell which is the fake one and what few ways there are to tell can be used by Mirage to pretend to be a clone walking into a wall.

I really like the flares since it forces you to keep moving and get creative with how you approach the rings. Always closing ring with flares would be a dream.

The flares slow the game down, not speed it up. I think the small flares could be fun for removing PoI, but they're horrible when they cut off rotations.

Just had a final ring in Caustic Treatment with all 3 squads actively using heat shields to duck in, out, and through various doorways and the flare. A heck of a lot more engaging than most final rings usually are. We won in large part thanks to the Caustic on our team (even in the heavily nerfed state, the gas damage does add up).

I've been enjoying the flares. I like the big single ring better than smaller ones, though I wish it would appear in a random place instead of the center of the circle every time.
