Everyone tells me to use ACOG in every gun, but I don't know if I like it.

I doubt I'll play enough of this game to ever learn the maps, zooming in so far seems to make it difficult for me to see enemies when I'm in faster situations. I've been using a holo instead.

I've played like 5 hours so far so... Not much.

I was like that at first too, then I started to engage people from further away because I learned which parts of the map people tend to roam in and which parts they hunker down and try to defend. At that point it's useful to have a bit of magnification so you can pick people apart easier.

But use the reflex sight it's the best one outside of the ACOG. The holographic is ugly.

I really am disappointed by the red dot. It looks like it's painted on lol

What are good operators to pick up for ranked? I have Smoke and Mute on defense, Ash and Sledge on attack.

I try to play mute or ash every time if possible.

Oh yeah, whilst I was on the 'what the gently caress are you smoking?' bandwagon, we already have several Defenders who make Shields incredibly sad (Smoke & Lesion, for starters, as well as ELA who makes everyone sad), whilst still being good Operators in their own right, so that makes the desire for a shield wrecking Operator extra wacky.

tbh its annoying that some of the shield ops can get into a corner and unless you have the counter you just have to literally watch them forever.

and if you go with hibana - idk why but i swear to got her main rifle (Type 89?) actually somehow loving works better with a silencer than any other attachment

Don't suppressors lower damage? seems bad

insignificant DPS loss compared to how much better the weapon handles. if you're that worried about dps you can just use a flash hider but from my experiences the suppressor+acog on this particular rifle makes cheesing headshots much easier than any other options it has

fwiw she's my #3 most played attacker w/over 20 nerdy hours experimenting so i'm not just quoting some esports chart i found on reddit

I thought all a silencer did was lower the damage and sound, I didn't know it increased handling. BTW what's the difference between flash hider and compensator? Ingame it says the comp is much better but everyone is using flash hider from what I can tell.

To sort of reiterate again what everyone is saying. Don't get the starter edition. No joke the grind is really really hideous and I can't imagine the frustration later if you want to actually play unique operators, you know a sort of key element of the whole game. It is basically a trap and there are very few cases where it makes any sense. The standard basically makes it easy to unlock all the year 1 OPs in a reasonable amount of time.

i heard if you buy the starter and then a year X pass it unlocks standard rates but i have no clue if that's true. I got starter because I only had $15 so

That's not true. I had the Starter Edition, bought a pass and still had to pay 12,500 for base ops (I just bought the Attacker/Defender bundles).

that's unfortunate.

People on Reddit are literally saying dumb poo poo like "you script kiddies wouldn't understand, they need to store 2 years worth of renown activity and retrieve it"

and it's like no, all the info they need to do it is right there whenever you check an operator's loadout. Complete bullshit.

These are the same people who call you an idiot if you buy the starter edition after a free weekend and then want to upgrade to standard. It's always you being a dumb idiot and never ubi trying to mislead you with the free weekend experience.
