It's an accuracy penalty. Not a headshot damage penalty. Not exactly punishment for spamming hipfire into a hallway or wall at medium range. Just saying.

Just ran into my first Kapkan glitch.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsF89Fe6XBs
And then this shit happened. This is a new one for me. I got stuck to a wall and had some kind of out of body experience. Is this a known bug or did I just discover something new?

Fucking game is broken as shit right now.

There's been an update on the Terrorist Hunt XP/Renown nerf on the official forums:
Good to see that they consider it a bug. Having to run ~450 missions to unlock a single DLC operator is a bit much ;p
And for those who haven't run into this, its only an issue with non-matchmaking Terrorist Hunt matches - so when you run as lone wolf or squad-only you get far less renown and XP since the latest update.

Has anyone else on consoles had a issue with the prompt for setting a door barricade? It seems like I have to keep moving the stick to get the prompt for the barricade and it's really slowing me down. I have no issue with getting the wall barricade button prompt.
It almost seems too sensitive. I haven't made any controller adjustments.

Pretty much anything with prompts, besides walls is difficult on the Xbox. Putting down your shield is a chore with absolutely nothing in the way. Same with Kapkan's traps, it takes forever sometimes to maneuver around and figure out which angle will give you the prompts.

I'd say even "Sensible" is a too kind, even if it's a hypothetical title.
I was pretty annoyed by how he deliberately recut a promotional video Microsoft had released on Halo 5's Warzone REQs (which was made to explain that players are matched based on acquired REQs and such, so whales fight whales and so on), and made it look like Microsoft was treating their consumer base like idiots and wallets. Oh, and if it took him four hours to beat the game, then he was playing on Easy with friends, because it's most definitely not four hours long unless you're terrible (which he is, as he placed in Bronze).
I'm not actually surprised that he called Siege a disappointment based on it not having a campaign. The guy wants every game to appeal to what he thinks the game should have, instead of recognizing what the game set out to achieve. Not every game needs a campaign, and Siege shows how you can make a satisfying multiplayer experience that doesn't feel lacking in content so they can justify a $60 price tag. But Joe? He'll just focus on the game's microtransactions and lack of a campaign, because that's what he does.
Make the nail grey, and have the laser be "faded" (like laser sights normally are for guns). Then take away one trap of Kapkan's. There's a potential balancing alternative that makes his traps more viable while still making them identifiable; to compensate, he only gets two, as the new focus on identifying them makes them more dangerous than before.
A lot of folks think the blast radius and number of grenades Thatcher gets should be toned down.
Frost has less armor and weaker weapons than Kapkan. Plus, they serve similar-yet-different roles. Pick them based on the situation. People don't seem to realize that Kapkan's loadout is pretty damn amazing, and his three armor make him an excellent roamer. He's better at roaming than Frost in many regards.

I agree. I love PC for high framerates, but it sucks to wonder every time you die if its a hacker. And I didn't even think about the bloom and such for this game, which is a big deal sometimes for seeing the enemy. I'm glad the PS4 version runs at a solid 60.

That shotgun fires faster and hits harder than pretty much every other shotgun in the game. I've been downed from across the room by that sucker. It is infuriating.

The kapkan fix is in the Feb 14th patch. (consoles)
The headshots not registering and the t-pose bug are not even in that patch. Have fun waiting for March.
Why are you teabagging people in 2016.

That's the t-pose bug.
Officially listed as "reported" but no word on progress. The next patch, I get the impression is done and about to roll out on PC, but consoles lag on cert. So if it's mid Feb for this one (which doesn't address ghostman) who the fuck knows when they fix it. Not looking too good for this month.
Didn't realise that was what you were referring to. That isn't good to hear
To assert his dominance. So funny how you guys get so worked up over tea bagging, its not a disrespect thing more of a like 'holy shit that was amazing' thing.
Please, I'm pretty good at interneting and I don't think the purpose of teabagging got magically changed.
I do it all the time but only if it's the last kill of a round, and only for the reason I stated. Who are you to judge how someone celebrates their good plays anyways, it's just a game lighten up.

People getting upset over T-Bagging now? lol
It's long standing FPS tradition and will not go away unless there is no way to crouch or prone.
It's one thing that doesn't go out of style.

Even in a game like The Division where you can't bag, people find a new bag. I jump jack all day on people I down when I'm rogue lol.
I experienced the jesus glitch my first night last night after buying the game. Sucks I couldn't see shit while in prone due to black all obstructing my screen.
Only happened once. Game is smooth otherwise. WAY better than beta for sure.
Best $40.00 I've spent in a while on a shooter. Idk how much attention it'll keep from me once SF5 and The Division drop, but it's nice to have a FPS on deck I can come back to throughout the year since no FPS' are announced coming this year I give two shits about.

How is it 'in style'? You don't see respectable players doing it.
I don't think anyone expects it to go away, but that doesn't make it any less scummy.
It's even worse when it doesn't even make sense. Like in the gif above, the guy is playing a casual game against two people that he shot in the side of the head with a shotgun. They'd already penned themselves into the freezer, and lost there remaining 3 teammates. The mistakes they made, and those of their team, came far before the instance in which they were killed, yet the person who killed them (at that point it could have been anyone) and you decide to use something that's something that references sexual abuse as a sort of 'taunt'.
Seems juvenile to me, and just because all of the degenerates of the online multiplayer gaming are doing it, doesn't really make me think it's 'in style'. It always makes me cringe.

Glad you are here to be the morale compass of the online gaming community.
It doesn't have to make sense. What makes t-bagging so damned great is it can come out of nowhere and slap you in the face; doesn't have to be after a great play.
We are playing games to have fun. If having fun means I can act "juvenile" a few times a night then so be it. Sorry the t-bagger ruined your night.

Seriously, I'm sure the guy who posted the gif wasn't even doing it as a taunt, but as a simple celebration for getting the round ending kill.
Like what do you guys do when you clutch a round or get the game winning kill? Do you just stand there and look at the dead body? Lol that's so boring. I bet you guys are also against celebrating after a touchdown in football or hitting a game winning shot in basketball. Like cmon dude.
Also wtf does 'respectable' player even mean? Your not a professional who is supposed to be a role model to the community, your a person sitting on a couch playing a game.
Nice breakdown of the situation and player's psyche there. I wouldn't mind having a diagnosis of what is mentally wrong with me for shooting a bunch or looking up in the the air and spinning around for the kill cam if you could spare the time.
Sometimes people just enjoy letting loose and being a bit juvenile after having to be responsible and mature the rest of the day; games are good for that. Personally, when someone bags me at the end of a round, it gets me motivated to kick ass in the next round.

I really hope Ubisoft hits all of these asshats using the Kap glitch in Ranked with a ranked play ban.
What is GAF's opinion on players that are using mouse adapters like XIM4 for console play? I ran into an entire team in ranked that was using it, and we were getting killed at spawn often and couldn't hold our own in any gun battle against them. Having mouse aim is inherently a massive advantage over aiming with a pad, so I have a hard time seeing this as legitimate play. Why would you even buy something specifically to bring a mouse to a console game when you could just play the game on PC against players on a level playing field? It isn't as if they're fooling other players, and I would hate to think that they're actually fooling themselves.
With tournaments being held that feature cash prizes, should this be acceptable? Microsoft officially manufactures a controller that is meant to provide a slight advantage, so should this be considered different? It seems like a more serious issue than any invisible Kapkan laser, especially since this can't be patched or likely even properly detected.

They don't have mouse aim. XIM-like adapters don't work that way. They still have the limitations of an analog stick because that's all the game and console will accept. They just have a really wide movement range which can allow for more precision and no stick-like resistance.
NullPointer

I thought it was meant to work people up, and that's why people do it.
I suppose I should have said mouse-like behavior rather than just mouse aim. One of the guys I played against said it isn't 1:1, but I would still certainly call it a rather large advantage. The ability to be that quick and accurate doesn't happen on the sticks, especially with the aiming mechanics of this game.
Also, explosives never get old to me.

What a fucking joke. Have Ubisoft got the interns working on this game or what?
Shit like this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOC7Wtf5kOQ
is completely unacceptable in a competitive 1st person shooter. I'm getting tempted to trade this broken piece of shit in for Street Fighter V if the ridiculous amount of bugs and game ruining glitches aren't fixed in the next 2 weeks.
Oh, we've gone back to t-bagging being "sexual abuse"? And this time it's combined with "respectable players"? I'm glad we have others who can keep us in check with what buttons we can and can't press in a videogame, because otherwise we'd all be depraved assholes in real life, apparently.

I think they do it because they want to feel superior by degrading the person so that they feel better about themselves.
There's always someone who wants to be alpha.

It's not to degrade anyone. It's just a funny little animation to do in celebration rather than stare blankly at a wall... And it's certainly not engaging necrophilia, as Chrono seems to think.
I cannot believe this was said with regards to teabagging.
Anyway I don't understand why you're so worked up. I won the round with a good flank by breaking the door they thought they were smart to hide behind and took them both out without them even knowing what happened.
Not sure what's relevant about "mistakes" or how they played, I just significantly out played them in that instance and celebrated for it.
If it makes you feel any better, when I'm playing with my friends and they get the final kill, I'll teabag my friends and hold RT in their face. But I guess according to you this represents sexual murderous behaviour so I had better go get my emotions checked...
