i mostly play this game to space out while high and my matchmaking reflects that so if i have a blue or purple heavy mag i'll drop a flatline for a spitfire just for the ability to down multiple people in a single mag while aggro rushing as third party no doubt the low dps and slow reload cripple it in duels if you're playing at the highest levels where people can laser you with other guns, but even then as dogstile posted, sometimes a bottomless well of bullets is just what you need it's pretty bad with no extended mag tho

Devs saw fit to give us two gun slots, after all. Which basically means r99/prowler and then whatever the gently caress I fancy using that game. But it's the triple take, I always end up using it.

just had a really weird game with some try hard rev who just made a b line for ever enemy but it kinda felt like he was hacking? Just constantly on someone's heel. The weird part is after he leads us into a giant clusterfuck like 6 squad battle in the heart of the city on WE and gets knocked for the third time he was telling us to just leave?!? He dropped us right into the BH event thing too and managed to suck up all the loot so me and the lifeline were always a little behind him because we had nothing.

The hipfire spread is pretty bad and gently caress if I'm going to take the movement penalty from ADSing with that paltry DPS but yes, there are a few cases where it's an alright weapon. e: I don't have a problem with it having high recoil/poor hipfire accuracy if it also has high DPS to compensate. I really like the L-Star for certain situations. Regrettable fucked around with this message at 01:59 on Aug 13, 2020 |

Even people with guns don’t have that many mods for them in hot drops most of the time. Someone can get a 99 off the drop but without a mag it’s almost a crap shoot if they one clip you or not. The spitfire needs nothing to be a squad ending machine.

I find spitifre has its uses but I've definitely come off it since the beginning. The huge mag really helps wreck fools that blow their load too early and get caught out reloading. If you catch someone out of position you can pretty much end them on a single magazine no matter how much they flop around. Con: You're pretty much standing still so if they're not an idiot they can just click your head.

urrrrgghh landed on 7199 rank. yay, got it the game after. So, Prowler is a complete beast, eh? Went from solo-queue bouncing off the bottom of Plat IV to solo queue breaking Diamond in about five days of only Prowler and Scout. Still can't use the R99 for poo poo, but burst-fire Prowler totally clicked.

Full auto prowler is insane. Just a laser. Pretty much the only time I'm not an anchor for my team is when I get one.

Prowler/Scout has been arguably the strongest pairing in the game for awhile, even after the scout nerfs, the only downside is the ammo space needed if you want to not run out of prowler food when nobody you kill might have any heavy or you want to plink away with the scout wildly. Though you can fix the ammo concerns by swapping the scout for a shotgun/golden gun/wingman/a second prowler because why not.

Has anyone noticed a distant thumping noise sometimes in the current limited time event? It doesn't seem to line up with any particular game event that I've noticed, at first I thought it was spitfire kills but this is just plain wrong Also do you use doubletap with the scout? I'm just starting to use it and can't work out if its a hinderance beyond short range

Sounds like someone bumping their mic to me, it's really irritating. Yeah double tap on the scout is questionable beyond close combat, I rarely bother cause if Im going scout im gonna have something else for close range.

I'm just starting to use it and can't work out if its a hinderance beyond short range You can always swap to single fire when your at the ranges where one bullet goes too low and the other too high, doubletap is amazing at that perfect range where you hit one in the body one in the head as fast as you can pull the trigger.

If you pull down as you fire you can double tap headshot both. Its a flicking motion so its a bit weird to get used to.

One good thing is that they showed who voiced those Rampart VMs on the Twitter account, and one of them is voiced by Danny Trejo (and another voiced by Niecy Nash who also did a good job)! Wouldn't it be cool to have a Legend voiced by a legend?

Sometimes I wonder if there’s a rendering error that hides nearby teams during the drop. Cause I spend the whole jump looking for them and I’m STILL constantly surprised. This post brought to you by being fourth partied 3 minutes in.

That's a constant thing for me, I just assumed it was normal that you don't actually see all of the squads near you during the drop due to some limitation or other

The whole "they're not near you until you land" is so consistent for me that i've kinda stopped bothering to do anything more than a quick sweep. I just grab a gun and hope nobody else got armour and a mastiff before me.

I'd be ok with it becoming prowler country, to be honest. Be interesting to see the streamers adjust from their comfort pick, which is all the r-99 is at this point.

 mirage voyageit's probably for the best though, it had the same energy as skulltown in that if the dropship started anywhere near it you'd end up with half the squads wiped in first minute of the game
