Is that piece of shit worth my time?

Friend keeps begging me to buy it, so I can play with him.

I'm tired of cheap shooters and ubisoft crap in general but I have to admit it looks interesting.

Anyone played it?

I tried it on a free weekend and really enjoyed playing it with 2 friends, even as someone who's not great at FPS games. I think they found a good balance of realism and gamey-ness with the gameplay, and it looks pretty nice. I think it's at the very least worth picking up on sale.
>>
Just got out of a match.

If you're into OPERATORS OPERATING OPERATIONS the game is good.

It's fast paced enough on match points to keep it interesting. Teamwork is super fucking crucial and communication, but it's all good. The only Ubishit game that i've ever bought because i'm actually enjoying it.

Since it's a slow take on shooters it's a nice change, but it's not slow to a snail pace, it's more like "think your approach know your teammates and enviroment" kind of thing.

When all goes good:
>Find the enemy team on a sealed room
>Rappel into the nearest window
>Team understands shit's going down
>Tactical insertion of cluster grenades through enemy anus
>Tactical kick to the window frame
>Tactical entry into swift submission
>All good

When it all goes wrong
>One teammate goes by himself to the wrong floor
>One Fuze deploys grenades into the hostage's room
>Enemy tryhard know-all-the-corners camper kills you with Glaz sniper

You should probably look up what colloquial phrase actually means.
>>
Gonna recommend against. Good idea, bad execution. Movement, guns and damage are too much like CoD. Siege and breaching mechanics don't actually allow for much creativity or adaptability. Placing deployable equipment is shitty because the game WON'T let you place anything within 6 feet of any geometry. But sometimes it will, idk. Oh is consistency in what's supposed to be a competitive ranked game important?

Operators don't have very good chemistry with each other, just pick ones with the good abilities and go. Some are useless or redundant. Why pick IQ to scan for traps when you could use Thatcher and EMP them all at once?

>>321674154
There is plenty of different ways to breach and defend I feel. More so than any game which you can compare it to.

Half the fun is deconstructing the enemies defense like a puzzle.

The rest is pretty much true if a bit exaggerated.
IQ is the only weak link in the operators and They've made one fixed to the gun turret placement.
>>
>>321676178
Do you not have any connection issues?

I bought it yesterday but I couldn't fucking stop DC'ing from games.

I thought it was fun.

>>321675778
Well, the abilities that every operator have are pretty ridiculous and most of it is built around game balance rather than realism, and you have stupid shit like one-hit melee kills, and the ability to punch through drywall but I have to say that as far as movement and gun shooting goes, it's pretty fucking close to Rainbow Six 3. Not 100%, more like 75%, but you have lean buttons, no regenerating health, die in 3 shots, full prone and crouch, extensive rappel mechanics, etc.

I see people leaving all the time but I never DC myself. Happens every time before the round starts. Then again I'm playing on PS4

>>321675778
I'm similar, I don't play arcade FPS at all. The damage is arcadey. High TTK compared to games like Insurgency or Red Orchestra, and there's no much gun recoil. Headshots are always instant kills no matter the gun, so it becomes a game of who can one tap headshot fastest like Counter Strike. I think it's a nice blend between tactical shooters and arcade shooters, but it took me about 20 hours to get used to aiming for the head instead of center of mass.

Xbone player here.

Connection issues occur occasionally. Biggest has been squad members disconnecting when we start selecting characters for a match. Had it happen repeadidly till we switched hosts. DCing happens but with low to medium frequency. Most of the time it's host disconnect cause they didn't want to sit through the rest of the round while dead.

Very little of that.
Roaming is very much needed against experienced players.

A few defenders will hide out of the objective space in odd locations in order to sneak up on the attackers as they are focused on dealing with the people on the objective point. Shit attackers get wiped instantly by this.

That's all I could think which could be similar but roamers are easily countered by using drones correctly and dealing with them first

They need to remove stationary cameras, and add in placeable cameras. 1 per person. Attackers just know all the positions by now, and defenders lose a huge defense tool

Controversially, I think they should get rid of the drones aswell. 5 drones, there is ZERO chance of the Attackers not learning the exact room or atleast the floor the objective is on. It just makes rounds streamlined because there is few times you get killed far away from the objective. Instead, Attackers should vote for a location to "inspect" and if it happens to coincide with the location that Defenders picked they learn the location of the objective. Its super luck based but its better than Attackers always knowing the spot. It also checks off a location it cannot be, so they have a 3-4 other places to check.

You still learn where they are at, unless as Mute you run out and plant random Jammers.

If you get jammed, you know approximately where the objective is because of eliminating other rooms. They should let you spawn where you vote for, I'd like to vote for an objective room and spawn elsewhere to setup shit.

It's actually a really good game. Think of a cross between Counter-Strike and Bad Company 2.

40 bucks is a fair price for it I'd say. It's certainly not lacking in content. In fact, it's pretty amazing that a triple A game (from Ubisoft, of all people) comes out and respects a player's ability to problem solve and learn the game mechanics without having to hold you by the hand with a corridor shooter campaign.

Most of the problems you see of DCs and connection issues generally are from console plebs.
Mid December patch helped quite a bit in terms of the networking on PC, but don't expect anything more than a 60tickrate experience if you are used to 90+
>>
It's a very good game, with probably the best and fairest business model I've seen in a AAA from the last couple of years. I don't get why people complain so much about the entry price, considering that you would've been nickle and dimed with the new maps and operators otherwise, probably would've had an even smaller initial roster to begin with.

Though there are obviously some glaring issues, the most obviously being about the general network performance. Games can be quite hard to find at times (this varies a lot in itself even though there's still no lack of players, because the matchmaker can literally get invisibly stuck on several different stages of the matchmaking process. Some people also get disconnected from servers while playing, but this has probably never happened me personally.

You still need uplay to play it.
>>
>>321689351
The progression is pretty fast. If you play the Situations, which is basically a long tutorial (that you definitely should do) you earn enough in-game monies to buy a lot of operators. You also get daily challenges that earn you more renown, and just from buying the game you get 5 one-day renown boosters which help you earn even more.
>>
>>321689351
Operators are cheap and easy to unlock.

Weapon camo and other cosmetic shit is where you'll end up spending real money (assuming they don't change prices later on).
>>
>>321689726
I should have noted that "Renown" is the in-game money you use to buy operators and gun attachments.

I bought it for my friend and my self and I can say it's an awesome game I just wish that they didn't charge 60 bucks for the retail price because that's literally what's stopping people from buying the game, and because of this it sometimes takes more then a minute to find a game. Other then that they have a couple of bugs that they need to fix like where you get stuck and the only way to get unstuck is to lay down. They class system is great, and so is the gunplay. Id honestly recommend this game, but only if you have some friends to play with.

I know they up the tick rate but they said it was temporary on the patch note

did they lower it down yet?
>>
>>321689351

I've been playing it pretty casually since release and I have all of the operators even though I haven't played any of the situations.

It's likely that the 'DLC' operators will be more difficult to unlock - given that they'll be free. Apparently, they'll cost some 25k renown - but even that isn't an insurmountable amount given that you earn several hundred per match.

Don't sit there nicely unless you're montagne with shield fully extended. They can still shoot your hand.
There's still patience that goes in using the shield despite having great 1v1 advantage. You can't just drop it in the middle of a firefight and hope for the best. As montagne, I like to sit there and wait for the enemy to get bored and stare at me, then suddenly drop shield and pop a round in their face.
Blitz you'll probably be moving and shooting a lot more. Stand when you're point blank so they can't accidentally spray the top of your head. Flash on approach, observe their behavior, and decide whether to drop the shield and aim, run up and spray, or just melee. Stand a bit before doorways when you're being a distraction so they can't just throw a nitro cell at you from a sharp angle from inside the room. Be mindful of your flanks.

And never bite off more than you can chew. The shield is great 1v1, but taking on more than two people at once is a death sentence. All that needs to happen is for one person to step a few degrees over and shoot your flank.
>>
>>321695916
It's hard to say the exact player count since Uplay doesn't list the number of players for games like Steam does, but you get into games within 30 seconds usually so it must be sizable.

>>321696014
To add to your post: Also remember it's not your job to kill everyone, as a shield user you're a great distraction. It's even worth firing at enemies if you can't hit them just to scare them so your team can make a move. And always take the semi-automatic pistol as Montagne, the more shots the better especially since you're extra vulnerable when reloading without a secondary weapon.

>>
>>321689202
I don't think so. Once you unlock all the base operators, you're only spending ~300 per primary gun to fully customize it if you don't buy camos. Once you get everyone you're going to do nothing but stack money. You don't even get cosmetics to blow dosh on so once you get everyone and customize their guns you literally don't have to spend a single renown.

For attackers, Thatcher and Thermite are useful all the time and have decent armor/speed stats. If you're going to get a shield dude, I'd recommend Blitz from GSG 9. That flash shield is extremely useful.

For defenders the ones you want to go with are Rook, Castle, and Mute.

Then again, abilities don't matter all that much. Pick who you want and you'll probably like it.

Tachanka has a really good shotgun and armor stat though. If you are stuck between recruit and Tachanka, pick Tachanka.

You should change that to only. Without Rook's armor boost, the chance of teammates being in a down but not out state is extremely low. When that's taken away, his only strength boils down to his self-revive.

>There's no point in character customization if it's a first person perspective game
Except there is, because even when you cant see your character its something to do and enjoy outside of the gameplay itself. It also gives them a massive new revenue stream to support the game since their camo system is utter shit and no one in the right mind would pay for the horrid crap they are shitting out and calling camo.

I can tell them apart pretty easily.
You've only got two defenders per CTU.

It's easy enough to distinguish the CTUs from one another.

Castle is black pulse is white
Rook has black armour plates/ doc has white armour plates
Jaeger and bandit have different coloured tops and helmets and so on

Fairly easy to tell

I see you don't play with a high rank

>It just makes rounds streamlined because there is few times you get killed far away from the objective
If you don't approach carefully from the get go a good team will fuck you up with roamers. Everyone knows cameras yes, but destroying them gives info to the defenders. Without drones the game would be impossible for attackers

It's non-ranked where people lock themselves up to the container room and the attackers rush it senselessly. Try playing with a stack and get a high rank

only appears when you ID and is pretty useless info when you need to know who you are shooting at on screen.
