Yes, we are

No, Dust Line ops just temporarily killed the game. In a couple weeks when they get nerfed once Ubisoft isn't making money off of them we should be fine.

No Valk is practically pre-patch Frost with an ability that is much more powerful than a couple easy to spot mats.
>>144193138
Mats are fucking harder to see than the goddamn kapkan traps
They are so shit their only use is to force enemy to waste breaching charges and explosives
And even only if you are facing an wasteful dumb enemy, because normal people lean and shoot it with a pistol
I've gotten literally one kill using trapkan and it was from a guy who shot the trap and I was waiting for him on the other side with saiga

Flanking and c4 isn't a counter to BB it's a counter to literally every operator.
There are no counters for bb like there are for other operators

>>144195929
>I don't know how to flank a guy often being invulnerable behind his tiny shield pinning down everyone in LOS surrounded by his entire team on the lookout for anyone flanking
>>144196242
BB is an operator with tunnel vision, he's only covered from the front, is slow when moving around, and has a random recoil pattern when his shield is on.
Flanking is doubly effective against him. You get even a bit of an angle on him and he's dead, because his rifle shield is extremely flat. A little angle from above or below will also do the trick
C4 against him is what a retard would do, and would only work in very limited scenarios.
The counter to BB is literally intel and using your brain to flank, not going against him head on
>>144196242
Good luck getting c4 in. Unless it's a rare situation where they break in and are oblivious to you while you are standing within the 3ft tossing range.
BB is just broken.
Other shields have severe downsides to being frontally unkillable and they are still hard to kill
BB has no downsides other than having to lean to become completely invulnerable
Even something like limited visibility or slower aiming movement would help a lot but no, you get better stability on your weapon with shield on
>>144196409

Flat out untrue. The recoil pattern becomes randomized.

Slow and tunnel vision when shield is up
>>144196646
This is on pub players, not on balance concerns. Play with buddies for actual operating and good intel for sick flanks

Reducing the number of bullets it takes to break his shield would make sense, except you don't want to be shooting at the shield in the first place and risk "oh, are these couple of bullets going to finally break it or am I gonna die?" If you have to ask that, you'll be dead, even if they reduce the number of bullets it takes
Increasing the recoil when the shield is on and taking damage would be a good idea, although not seriously game changing
Like Serenity suggested, making it so that he can only hold his rifle up for limited periods of time before having to put it back down would nerf his ability to hold down a defuser once it's planted. Which I think is the most OP and silliest part about him (once the defuser is down and BB is watching it, it's GG)
>>144197217
>momma, people disagree with me on the internet!
>>144197319
Know what I've always agreed with you
I've always wanted to nerf BB by making shield easier to see for others to make his identification easier and reducing his FOV while the shield is off, say making outside the black markings area solid or making his aiming slower.
But the reduced hold up time makes so much sense and I love it.
>>144197217
You know what you did and it didn't work since you quoted all the 3 people on this thread as yourself
>>144196460
He is just as vulnerable to being shot from behind as any other operator. It isn't doubly effective you retard.
Again, there is no counter to black beard that isn't a flat counter to everyone
>>144197415
>>144197569
whoa
so this is the power...

>>144197628
except when he corners himself and leans from behind an unpenetrable wall, meaning he's literally invincible
Yeah some of his head peeks out but good fucking luck finding these pixels while you're reacting to a random enemy shooting at you and trying to see the faint change of color to identify it's blackbeard so you know how to look.
Good luck doing all that sub 1 second, keep in mind you allready wasted third of that reacting to the fact you're not alone
>>144197628
Asking for a direct counter for Blackbeard is like asking for a direct counter for Buck. There isn't one. Just good intel and flanking, ie, the soft counters to everyone.
A direct counter to operators with gadgets like Thermite's make sense, but when it's literally just a gun attachment that you're dealing with, how would you deal with implementing a counter? A fucking special laser gun that can shoot through his shield?
I'm glad you're not a game designer
>>144197932
lol thats like saying buck is actually a problem
>>144197932
Im not asking for a direct counter, im saying "flank him" isn't good response when people complain.
Try not strawmanning
>>144197985
>Implying he can't fuck your shit up
>>144198013
It is a good response. It is the response you give to anyone who insists on whining about this topic because they haven't learned what it's like to play with a coordinated team that calls out shit and plays mind games with their opponent
>>144198167
Furthermore, BB is the ultimate pub stomp pick. This is not debatable, because to beat him you need communication and intel.
To balance shit tailored to pubs is a terrible idea, however. You never want to do that. It just dumbs the game down

>>144196540
>Other shields have severe downsides to being frontally unkillable and they are still hard to kill
You can shoot shileds in the hand while fucking up their hipfire accuracy, works for medium/long range. You can't do anything similar with shitbeard. Even if you encounter him when he just crouches, you will get killed anyway, because you aim and shoot in the invincible head, everyone does it in this game, including that BB you are shooting at, so he'll just either headshot you instantly or bodyshot you to death while you are changing your aim from head to body.
>>144198853
>majority of people say he's broken
>majority of BB players say he's broken

Gee I wonder who I'll side with.
>>144200639
>Let me go with what the majority of people say instead of thinking for myself and listening to disagreeing arguments
>Least played in a pool of operators played for 400 hours, which is still a fair chunk to form an informed opinion when using BB and far more than enough going AGAINST BB as Defenders
A+
I just wanted to add to the whole Blackbeard argument: his shield increases his accuracy. By a lot. As in it looks like he has the same recoil that consoles have. There are literally no penalties for having shield out; in fact, it gives so many benefits you'd have to be retarded not be having it out all the time once inside the building.
>but he's slow
No one gives a shit since most operators tend to go through buildings slowly to reduce noise and cover corners properly.
>just flank him
Good job giving advice that applies to every operator available. Good luck trying to do that when his team is alive.
>just shoot his body, not his head
This is where the accuracy thing becomes a problem. Most people in this game aim for the head, no debating about it. Even the worst players can get a headshot because the almost nonexistent recoil allows BB to heashot people incredibly fast. Faster than you're able to identify him mid encounter and switch to body shotting him. If everybody goes for the head first, how the fuck are you supposed to contest BB? Do you honestly believe you're fast enough to switch your aim while BB just keeps shooting your head off? This is not even taking to account you TRYING to flank him, but get spotted because a decent team would be covering each other, so now you have to deal with BB and whoever was covering him.
>>144200945
OOOH classy, taking "think for yourself" argument out for people who regularly experience black beards big bong
>>144200945
>Let me go against the vast majority of people who sunk hundreds of hours into this game and play at a variety of ranks because I'm a special snowflake.
>Let's balance the game around me and me alone, hire me Ubisoft!
You're not thinking for yourself, you're thinking obnoxiously.
>>144201229
>His shield increases his accuracy
Go and test it in an empty house map. Spray against a wall with the SCAR-H with compensator on and no shield. Strafe to the side, fire it again with the shield on, full spray. Compare results a couple of times for reference. Post screenshots.
His shield randomizes recoil. You cannot compensate for it, as you can with other guns.
If you don't see the advantage in speed and the hindrance that is 1 speed versus the constant danger of flankers, specially indoors, then I don't know what to tell you.
Flanking him is doubly important because of his frontal advantage. This applies to all attackers but more so to him, which is why you need solid intel and good Valk camera placement is more important than ever for informed call outs.
Encountering a BB head on is almost always going to be a death sentence precisely because of how he works. You're not supposed to fight him head on. If you're forced to, then he's played you and you weren't good enough to get positions on him and his team.
Like I said, his shield is extremely flat. Even a bit of an angle on him, up, down, or from the sides, means it's a clean headshot for you.
When all else fails, shotgunning a blackbeard is often a guaranteed kill since the bullet spread will often go where his shield isn't and get you that one to two shot kill
>>144201846
Nobody sprays anyway, really short bursts or semi auto is viable
Especially with BB when you have the time to aim and know it
>>144202363
>Backpedalling
His guns are not more accurate with the shield on. Their recoil is higher and it's randomized. Go try it.

Did ps4 get new headgears?
>>144201229
The strength of BB's shield is that he can see, shoot, and block bullets all at the same time. If you can mitigate one or two of those factors, you can remove his total dominance while still making him viable.
The idea that I've seen a few times is "horse blinders," sort of. If you divide the shield into three parts, but make it so that you can only see through the middle third, all of a sudden, there's a real drawback to having it on all the time.
I've included a microsoft paint simulation for your convenience.
>>144202912
Please read the points made above, nobody feels like repeating them for you.
>people still haven't learned that the secret to a dead blackbeard 9 times outta 10 is to shotgun him, even if you encounter him head on indoors, because the spread at close to close-mid range fucks him up and his shield doesn't matter
I've gotten so many clutches off like this, people seriously underestimate shotguns
>>144203101
If you make the black parts take more damage while the front takes less, I could get on board with this idea.
I don't think it's what they're going to do though.
They're much more likely to make accuracy go nuts when you're getting shot at, or implement the "hold up shield for limited time" thing that was mentioned before.
We should seriously rename the next OP to "Blackbeard General"
This is getting out of control
>>144203828

I've been here since the beta and it hasn't ever been this bad to be honest.
Besides it's much better than the huge amount of waifu faggotry (it's not as bad over here) or the name calling there is in the other generals.

Ash is fun, I need to stop picking people just because no-one else will.
>>144205817
Yes, yes you do. Specially if it's casual. It literally does not matter, you can fuck around. Thermite isn't as vital as everyone makes him out to be
Okay so I know everybody's getting tired of the BB discussion (although really it did keep the general alive for a while) I still feel obligated to post these webms since the anon asked for it.
So I tested BB shooting a full magazine from his SCAR in this first webm. The first two windows show off no compensation, meaning I let them spray at their own will. Of course this is not ideal, it does sort of back up my previous statement of bad players being able to get easier headshots, but you have to be brain dead to not try and compensate
Next to windows show off compensation. There is nothing here nor the previous times I did this on other maps (before I settled with this one as I liked the windows being good targets) that show off a drastic increase in accuracy. Likewise, there is nothing here showing that you can't compensate the shield. There are no real drawbacks to accuracy when you use the shield.
Of course, this is style of emptying the magazine is unrealistic in a high level match. Next webm will show off bursts.
>eGe clan
>>144203083
They did, but the devs removed them. Apparently they were accidentally released too early.
>>144206986
wow you proved everyhting, BB is most underpowered class in the world because all siege players are too stupid to compensate for recoil. Thanks for proving that every single siege player always full auto magdumps to get kills, always!
>>144207628
Looks like we're finally getting rook headgear now. And twitch.
Sorry it took a while. Webm converter kept cutting it off too short. Anyways, for these bursts, I followed the same trails as the first webm: first two windows no attempt compensate, next two windows attempting to compensate.
The first trail with no compensation shows a small advantage to shield. I take it because for the horizontal recoil to kick in like the last webm, you have to be continuously shooting with shield. Still, the no shield bursts are nothing bad, meaning there is only a small increase in accuracy for shield.
Next one I'm debating on whether it is accurate or not. I had a slightly more difficult time compensating the no shield bursts as the recoil would jack up the sight really quick, and I wanted to reset and fire continuous bursts quickly. Shield bursting was more easier and accurate for me, but I feel that compensation in general is an individual skill based thing and not based on the gun's accuracy. For that reason you can take the last trail with a grain a of salt.
Next and final webm will cover strafing while shooting.
>>144207923
If you take that stick out of your ass for a second, you'd know I'm mainly posting these because I was asked to. Whether you want to use them to be anti-BB or pro-BB is up to you, but I don't know why you're surprised to see me follow up on someone telling me to do this.
Hey fags, I'm planning to get the starter edition, and I wanted to hear the general consensus of this thread, is it worth it?
>>144209031
You should buy it, it's really fun if you think about what you're doing and going to do.
Also, this thread is kind of a bad indicator since it's pretty much just 10 people wanking each other off about how one operator is overpowered. It's not usually like this.
Final webm: strafing. First two windows show off a typical scenario for most people, which is to shoot from cover like this. Because this is in burst, once again I feel that the shield gets the edge, but it's barely noticeable. If anything the only true advantage here is the shield itself.
Next set of windows is firing a full magazine while walking across. This is to mimic prefiring open areas while moving across the room, something that is done pretty commonly in games. Result was shield has a clear advantage. This is mostly due to how recoil for shield tends to go horizontal, so moving across like this favors the shield, whereas without it you now also have to control its upward movement which is made much more difficult while moving.
Final thoughts: well he's certainly not game breaking like people tend to picture him as, but he does require some nerfing. Thermite got nerfed. Kapkan got nerfed. Frost got nerfed. I see no reason why Blackbeard would not get nerfed.
>>144209031
It's a good game, buy it. As for people claiming this is a bad thread, don't worry about it too much. Discussion of a video game is not bad, whether it's criticism or blogposting (just keep both low). If you want to see a truly bad thread, go to one of the big ones. They're overrun with shitposters and waifufags. We keep both fairly low, honestly.

Get it as cheap as possible tho
I think they should make the sound the cluster charge makes when it's about to be placed should be softer. I can clearly hear it being placed and headshot fuze through the wall.
I never play him but it just feels kind of underpowered to me.
>>144216913
Idunno, never had people spot me as fuze.
Today I was sitting right under a hatch and suddenly heard "FOMP FOMP FOMP FOMP"
I didn't hear a thing and I hadn't moved at all.
Even if its audible fuze can ask people to generate noise while he does it.
An new operator whose gimmic is they make noise would be great.

I managed to get my second ever trap kill by kapkan
I hid it in a barbed wire.
After I died to a similiar trapkan. I swear I didn't see any lasers or anything.
I now have 2 trapkan kills after playing it the most as defence for in my 10 hours of playtime. Even if the traps don't work he's still a great roamer
How do I get more trapkan kills, what are best meta kapkan strats
I think my biggest weakness is not knowing the maps
>>144209031
I got it a couple days ago and I do not regret it, it's a lot of fun once you get used to the games pace. As for >>144216562 I picked it up for like 25 from a key site. It was a Uplay key but you're forced to use it anyway so it doesn't matter.

>>144217470
Use traps as bait for the most part. If you really want trap kills, you need to mind game the opponent by fucking around with barricades. I'm sure there's some anons around here who can tell you their preferred setup.
Or you can try to cheese them with the unhooking glitch, but it's a hassle to get it done right during a match. I don't recommend it unless you have the time and get it on the first try in matches. It's not something you should spend your prep phase trying to achieve.

ive tried using blitz to flash guys shooting at me then headshotting them but honestly it has only wokred when I've been first one in and enemy wasn't expecting me so they look elsewhere while I take aim. Whenever I flash someone I get face full of magdump and die despite never leaving shield cover
Gonna pick up Siege's starter edition tonight. Who are two must-have operators? Just asking so I know who to pick and not ruin my first impressions of the game just because I made a shitty choice.
>>144225878
Montagne and Tachanka
>>144225878
atk:
-therm
-tatcher
-blackbeard
def:
-rook
-mute
-valkyrie
>>144225779
Don't try to have a gunfight with them.
Use flash to get closer, and then just just shoot without leaving the shield cover of melee them.
>>144225878
Thermite is a must have since he breaches through armored walls and fuze is great for panicking defenders
But honestly must haves and fun to haves are different things.
I enjoy fuze shitton but never play thermite or sledge, another often reccomended operator.
If you like playing medics tho, don't bother with doc. He's extremely luck based.
I'd reccomend going ash and fuze and for defence rook or mute, who are not neccesarily fun but are really useful to team.
Or do what I did and pick guys with the guns you want.
I guess I'm too new
I did exacly that and was shooting at them and they recovered and just meleed the shit out of me while I was panicking and fumbling.
Still, just checked stats and my blitz KD ratio is 1.5 somehow
>>144225878
Check
http://rainbow6.ubi.com/siege/en-us/community/stats.aspx
to see how often operators get picked.
>shoot at enemy
>he kills me
>there is bloodstain on the wall behind him
>he is at full hp>killcam shows that he misses all of the shots but still manages to headshot me
Why do even try shooting fair 1v1 when it's not fair at all
>on pc win ratio betwen A and D is 50% 50%
holy shit how did they do that
>>144228112
don't even bother bringing killcam into this, it is as accurate as real time video feed in 4k on 56k connection.
But yeah, I've had that happen a lot, or
>shoot enemy
>clearly only I shot
>we both die
It's the garbage netcode
>>144228223
I actually want to know why attack seems to have an advantage over defense on console, and why console prefer Castle and Jager over Smoke and Bandit.
>>144228801
probs because aiming is harder so grenades are more useful. As for operators, your guess is as good as mine
>>144188684

All the time friend. Last week we got a 5v5 inhouse game together; was pretty fun.
>>144229781
Are consolefriends allowed on teamspeak?
>>144228801
I believe it has to do with window peaking and drones. On PC you're lucky to have your drone out for more than a second inside a room with defenders. On console, I think they struggle to hit a small, fast moving target. As a result, they'll get pinged constantly which gives ATK a chance to peak from a window not being covered and shoot them up. With joystick I'd imagine it must be difficult to be able to quickly change your aim fast and accurately enough to contest a window peaker.

Can we get a Xbox one console group started? every thread there is no info.
I haven't played since right before they released new map + canadian waifu. Are there any big changes I should know about?
I'm thinking of getting the starter pack, does the fact that I will only have 2 operators and buying them will cost more be any problem? or operators don't really matter much?
>>144231743
Do it yourself faggot
>join room
>have no idea what they're saying
>disconnect
So I never used TeamSpeak before. How exactly do you guys organize anything and get a game started? Are these rooms seperated by language or what?
>>144231743
I'll Xbone when I get my copy, we can try to get a nice community going.
>>144233064
Look at rooms if there are less than 5 bam you can join them. If there are 5 or more I just join a room and chill in there until people join and we split off and make our own squad. Nice job joining the Germans though
>>144233320
Yeah, I assumed I should go to the room with less people and make it a 5v5. I just got confused when I my name, followed by a barrage of gibberish.
>>144233495
Ich bin ein seiger.
>>144232858

>>144232858
Depends. There's three big things to purchase:
-weapon mods. These are cheap. 1-2 games will get you enough for a mod
-aethestic stuff. Same prices in both versions and don't technically do anything.
-Operators.
Now, with the starter pack, you get 2 operators and enough credits for 2 more. Not counting DLC operators, who cost the same between versions, that's 4/20. So 16 remain.
In the base game, it'll take you about 20 hours to get all 20 base operators, but I'm gonna round that up to 24 for simplicity.
In the starter pack, it costs much more renown per operator. About 12 hours an operator, actually. However, this might still be cheaper. It's $5 for 600 credits, enough for 2 operators, or $40 for the 16 you need to complete the base roster.
So, using that math, here are your options:
$60 + 24 hours: base game at retail plus time to unlock original operators
$15 for the starter pack + $40 for enough credits = $55 for all original operators
So, to summarise:
-Cheaper than retail cost to buy the starter kit
-You save $5 for every 2 base game operators you grind out
-Would still probably be cheaper to just buy the base game on sale, even with grinding.
>>144232858
You'll have to grind like two weeks or one week of tons of play to get one operator. As a Siege player I'd say just buy the normal game
So this game just technically went F2P? With this starter edition?
>>144235228
>$15
>free
>>144235149
>>144235221
thanks, I guess I'll wait for the steam sale hoping for it to not die soonish
>>144235461
It wont.
>>144235228
It's not free since it still costs money. There also comes the penalty of having to grind even harder for most operators. Just to give you an idea: to buy all operators from a CTU in standard edition with Renown, you must pay 500, 1000, 1500, and 2000, respectively. With starter edition you need to pay 12,500 for each individual operator. Both of these editions do not even take into account the DLC operators, which go for 25,000 Renown each.
Please consider each one as you might get a bad impression of the game if you're stuck with only two operators and realize all the unlockables being released are also high price, pretty much forcing you to commit to unlocking new operators or buying skins/headgear.
Overall I'd say if you're really wanting to buy the game cheap and don't mind the grind, go for it. If you want to play most of the operators rather quickly or want to invest in yolo swag skins early, then standard is more reasonable. Season Pass is overkill and mainly bought by people who can't be bothered to grind for anything.
>>144205442
>He missed out on 2 straight threads of reddit witch hunting.
>>144235461
You can get a key from shady chinamen for like $25, that's what I did. Cheapest I've seen it go on sale for is like $40
Should I get the Starter Pack for PC and the Standard Edition for console?
>>144237694
Standard for PC, skip console
What kind of terrorist hunt mission do you play to grind credits?
I've literally never touched the mode and I don't know.
>>144237694
Standard if on sale. Starter if the former is not possible and you're not looking to unlock all the operators and just want like half of them (which can be purchased with real money individually, which would total to something less than the Standard edition). Only get Gold edition if you don't see yourself sinking enough hours to unlock anything any time soon and you'd prefer to get them fast.
So I just found out I can't refund Overwatch despite not putting that many hours into it. Since I feel fucked for throwing money away, I might as well do it for a game I actually like. What premium bundle should I get and how noticeable is it in game?
i played the free weekend a few weeks back and unlocked a bunch of operators, will i still have those if i buy the starter edition?
>>144239772
Were not really sure but it did if you bought the standard if I recall
Wait if the games $15 would there be more hackers or?
>>144239973
eh, its only $20 so i bought it, will report back in when im finished installing
Why did the decide to make IQ so fucking old (37?), is this some kind of mistake?
She looks like she's supposed to be lower twenties, considering her face and style.
>>144239092
For me the Starter edition costs around 13$
Thats a good fucking deal if i ever seen one, the problem is buying the operators.
I dont see the game dropping below 33% off or at most 40% of the initial price.
Its so hard to decide, if i buy it now i save a fuck ton of money but i will be Recruit 24/7 probably

You get 2 ops gratis, then enough Siegebucks to buy two more. So you get 4 operators unlocked right off the bat. The main problem is grinding for more since they'll be 12,500 each versus the 500→1000→1500→2000 price scaling. It's up to you on how you decide to unlock the operators. If it makes you feel better, you can always just buy some operators if you get tired of grinding all of them; you would still be saving money compared to just buying Standard. Standard only saves you time in the long run, honestly.
You know what would be cool
Old operators getting new guns
>Thermite gets an AR-15
>SAS get an actual MP5
>Mosin or VSS for Glaz
>>144240449
Have you seen a 20-some year old? They don't look that old. IQ would probably be in her early 30s, realistically.
>>144240449
She's a /fit/ operator, of course she looks young.
>>144241549
>>144241930
I don't know, I don't buy that. But even ignoring her (in my opinion) youthful face, she's still got the style of somebody much younger. Like, she's almost 40 years old and has purple sneakers and hair sticking out of her balaclava?
Does this look like concept art for somebody that's supposed to be that old?
Maybe I'm crazy, but I get the feeling that the age was slapped on way later without much thought. Kind of like some of the operators almost being kids, even though they're supposed to be the best of their respective units.
>>144237875
I primarily play console, my friends stick to f2p stuff on PC. That and if I have to play another multiplayer game on PC listening to kids bragging about their master race rigs, I might TK the team.
>>144239092
Thanks friend. Was considering gold just because it is the price of a new console game right now, and has that damn fine gold sheen to the case. Might go standard though.
>>144240197
Hopefully not.
>>144240449
She looks like a milf friend I have who is forty. Seems, and hardly "old" to me. That's a grand total of nine years away for me..10/10 would cover her six while on ops. (And not in a purely sexual manner.)
>>144242760
Strange, I don't think I've ever encountered people bragging like that but I would say the ease of access to a good PC in the last few years has brought down the overall quality of PC multiplayer gaming (at least in these big games)
>>144242724
If they were going full realistic operators, it would be like Rainbox Six 1-3. Nothing but heavy armor and silenced MP5s. A bit of color and style makes her stick out, but no so much that she would be a sore thumb on the battlefield.
>>144242946
It's not every match, but happens enough to make the PC community seem very toxic. It was very common in Payday 2 and that sort of game, where people would openly hack and act like hot shit. But I suppose it is less about the platform and more about the players in the long run. I want to go PC, if standard or starter, just to play with the chill folks in this general.
>>144240895
I'm still waiting for the red communist star Glaz headgear
>>144243338
>Toxic
You do understand where you are right now right?
>>144243529
Yep. I've been here for a decade now, but generally 4chan communities are mostly reasonable and decent. You get chucklefucks and a lot of banter, sure. But at the end of the day you still have bros who have your back. Neckbeards and the occasional rager over toxic kids and normies anyday.
>>144243751

>>144243338
R6S has nothing to do with Payday, though. Nobody brags about their rig in Siege because everybody's busy making callouts and other stuff. The most you'll hear about a PC is when someone's loading and they say the guy has a toaster, but that's pretty much it.
>>144244589
Fair enough. I'll probably drop some cash on copies for console and PC in that case. After that video Literalshill dropped of the teamspeak and whatnot, it seems far too fun to be missed out on.
>>144244386
Sorry, but that desync makes it unwatchable for me. Farthest I got was the one minute mark. Also:

>still shot him
>>144245625
Yea, I looked up the reason and it was because of the way the footage was saved. I would have to convert all the footage and re-cut everything. I thought it was just premiere being a bit slow while in editor but after exporting it stayed.

>>144250686
Okay, I could honestly understand maybe buying a weapon skin or two that can be applied to all weapons that costs 2 or 3 bucks. That's not too crazy. But you do realize these fucking overpriced "premium" cosmetics aren't justifiable in any sense? If I recall correctly, that French operator weapon skin bundle is like 20 fucking bucks, and that's just for weapons for the Frenchies. How can you justify spending 5+ bucks for a mediocre-looking cosmetic for ONE, I repeat, ONE operator?
