hahaha wooow, that's so bad! I mean, the 'removing MFA' bit isn't so bad, since I had to log a req to have it removed when my phone died a while ago. But the rest of it? So bad, hahaha

Me: $60 for a new video game? I dunno, man, that's steep

Also me: $60 for a set of kick-rear end art-deco/dieselpunk/retro-sci-fi themed operator skins? Fuckin' sick *whips out credit card*

also the new event game mode owns, it's a retro-scifi version of tower, secure area with two points to secure, no prep phase, when attackers switch to drone, they actually leave the map and when they exit the drone they pop up where the drone was but can only use their own drone. Defender's gadgets are all replaced with bullet proof cams that they can basically use as teleports, and they can use all the cams freely. I think each defender gets two.

I think museli is my new favorite defence operator. I like her gadget, its coverage, and she's a three speed, which I rarely play.

Yeah, Ace and Melusi are both really good ops. They make a lot of the other ops released in the last 12 months look like stinkers.

Can the Mute Protocol cameras actually be destroyed by anything other than destroying the wall they are placed on (if said wall is destructible)?

I've tried shooting the sides, melee, sledge's hammer, and frag nades and nothing destroys them, but I do get hit markers indicating damage, which is odd.

Loving the running gag on the video comments of having operators from other Ubisoft games (as opposed to Clancyverse) showing up.

So is there any reason to pick Thermite now? Hibana and Ace at least have some range for hard breaches.

Dead weight, just like this post.



Thermite is better for bigger holes on multiple walls faster than either Ace or Hibana , Hibana is better for hatches/making lots of kill holes.

hard breachers in general can be such game changers that i think they're all always going to be viable regardless of whatever the current top tier esports pickrate it

and like all operators, experiment with using their ability in unorthodox ways and you'll probably have more fun than you initially expected

i've had way too much luck just using thermite charges as distractions because people always assume he's within melee distance of the detonation

Yeah I guess with shared reinforcements there's more need for hard breaching. There's always gonna be that one guy who reinforces everything. Mira mains are not gonna have a good time.

I mean, they're already using checkerboard rendering on the PS4 and XB1 to achieve minimum framerates of 60fps, so I can see them doing the same to achieve 120fps average at 4K on the PS5/SeXbox.

I admit, I just got the season and battle passes because I'm a Sam Fisher (Zero) fan. So far he seems a good op that turns great on a communicating team (just like Iana).

An important tip for him is to put cams on rotation routes too and not only on objectives. In some maps you can do this from spawn.

So glad vote to kick is gone as a guy who started a new ps4 account in august and got matched with level 200+ players after 5 games.

Not sure why though as I'm getting my rear end kicked.

Newcomer mode is still a thing, right? Stick with that, you might still get smurfs, but hopefully not as bad.

Votekick was never really a 'kick good people' thing, it's so you can remove trolls (which rarely works since all you need is another shithead friend to queue with to prevent getting kicked. It usually just got used by 4-stacks to kick a solo queuer repeatedly)

Newcomer play list is abandoned in Australia. Vote to kick in my experience was used by trolls and idiots only and clearly ubi agreed.

I moved here in 2019 so I don't have any gamer friends. Nor do I play frequently or long enough to ever make one.

The best meta game is to play hostage and switch who fuze is. The rest of your team has to extract the hostage or kill the other team before fuze can partypop the room.
