So my friend and I just got voted out of the match because we didn't accept these kids chat invitation. We were at the last kill and boom i was voted and kicked. They are even streaming it. http://www.twitch.tv/maniacs_the_legend
Yup, becoming more and more prevalent...and it really breaks the delicate balance between attackers and defenders.
My man. Screw those hostages, looking all innocent...

It fundamentally breaks the map design, so yeah.
Sometimes a doorway can be the only way, and if that's been glitched so you can't enter it... well, they might as well have glitched out the house and killed you at your spawn.
If they do it to two doors on the freezer hostage defense on Cafe, the hostage is almost impossible to acquire without grenading the shields, something that's not always even possible, as not many players take frags on hostage.

Well I guess I learned two things today. Not sure if it's an intentional feature. Seems a bit game breaking to an extent sort of since it limits entrances. Almost cheating maybe(definitely not as bad as those XIM things)
It's a glitch that Ubisoft said should be fixed in patch 2.0 on february 2nd

Gunned down four members of a fairly clueless team yesterday. All huddled together behind a shield.

Had to quit ranked because a party of 3 decided to teamkill. Fuck this shit. There should be a way of detecting and banning these fuckers

I picked up the game this past Sunday and everything was fine up until tonight. A friend of mine got it today and we decided to play some games together, so it was me as a level 24 and him as a level 1. We were constantly being paired with people around our levels, but always going against people who were 60+. Hard to learn the game when you're getting your head kicked in the whole time.
Still having fun though.

Sometimes that's the best way to learn.
Eh man up and try to study their tactics. I learned the best stuff from teams that kicked our ass. Or go play ranked, casual doesn't have skill based matchmaking as it shouldn't.
Get on discord, it's where PC gaf is.

Great games with Rukia, Bezerk, Vorheeze, Heavy_Hushed, Johny_Park and Recipe4Disastr today.
Had some really good moments, both as a team and individually.

If you can't deal with the roamer that's shooting at Glaz and Fuse with a pistol at 30 feet, then you don't deserve to step inside the plane.
Seriously though I don't mind outdoor roaming. I think it's fair with the two second mark mechanics as they are. It adequately punishes defenders while allowing them some flexibility, at a trade off. I actually think it's a well designed mechanic as it stands.

I generally play with friends but had a punt on my own one day and had the exact same thing happen to my team. I took control of the drone again when the mission started to locate the objective and my team were wiped out on the stairs within about 10 seconds.
I was quickly dispatched thereafter.

Yeah yours wasn't too bad as it was by the door.
It's the ones who camp near spawn points.

I agree. So many players sprint to the building because they think it will be safe on the way there, but they still need to be watching their back.

I like the plane level though. I like how claustrophobic it is but it's silly when they go up the civilian enterances. Rookies

It also gives you opportunities to counter super-effective plays like rappeling after a bomb plant. Realistically that's almost undefusable in a 1 vs 1 as he can simply sit next to the bomb on the other side of the wall, then kill you when he hears you hitting it.
Thanks to the outdoor system you can flank the side of the wall he's on, and deal with it. Of course, that in itself isn't easy, as you can't guarantee he's even there, and put yourself at a pretty significant risk of being killed. That's what balances the mechanic though.
That Mute running outside to get you....just.....just why?
hahaha
The defenders had 5 guys left, they could have just sat in the room and waited you out XD

Haha, that's what we were saying while it was happening. For sure that dude made a huge mistake, lol.

Speaking of huge mistakes we watched a guy barricade himself into a closet with Castle earlier, as the last man alive on his team.
We just kinda looked at it and laughed, turned to the hostage and left. He burst out randomly like 20 seconds later. Of course, by which point, the hostage was already outside.
I'm not sure what he was expecting to happen...

Were you also there when a guy cooked a frag grenade till he exploded? That was a questionable moment too...

Yes, it was the snow house. We both watched it on camera
Found a picture of the new US operator that'll come in Season 2 on Reddit (as always leaked from 4 chan)
Wonder what CTU that will be? The hell is up with the long sleeve shirt pattern? I would think they would have chosen Navy SEALS or something but for some reason that doesnt seem like a SEAL to me.
I have a incredibly funny death to share that I will have to grab from a video that I saved on PS4 last night. Somehow Sledge died in mid air somewhat leaping over the hostage with a full extension of the legs. My buddy and I saw it on a death replay for the end of the match and just died laughing. When I get off work tonight Ill grab it.
Also, we won a round with one person alive on both sides where they each emptied an entire clip into and around each other as the seconds wound down and we won because we were defending. Pretty incredible shooting

I wonder if you can trick bear traps:
Use drones, grenades, to activate the trap and get frost to come to you
Maybe if you move fast enough, you can get away unharmed.

I'm wondering why she doesn't have the American flag on her cheeks instead of the black facepaint.

Now now--those look like polynesian tattoos. Each character actually has a bio that explains their background, so it could be related to her heritage.
In other news--patch 1.03 is deploying to consoles (well, PS4 confirmed):
Note that it SAYS 1.05, but that's just how the PS5 increments its patch numbers, apparently. It's the rest of 1.03 from last week.
Should be coming to X1 very soon:
This is the "rest" of 1.3 that is deploying to consoles today:
