bahahahaha nah I bet it's some kind of lag related model glitch. He probably got stuck in a trap and a friendly got him out but for you he still looked like he was in a trap

It's not like you say.I didn't recorded the full clip but i know how it happens.That enemy was caught(and was the last enemy)in my trap in the big window in the left(not the tiny) and look in the video where he is.He moves to that position in like 50 seconds.
It's impossible to move when you are in a trap. But maybe with an exploit/glitch you can...and it was the last enemy when he gets caught in my trap so the possibility of a friend tried to revive him is impossible.
Funny is xddd
I never actually tried crawling with the trap on me. Maybe that works?
Or maybe a friendly tried to pick up him up and stopped and that allows him to shuffle again?
I don't know man, it's just funny XD
If you rappel through a window into a trap,it's an instant kill
So this is on sale at Best Buy and I'm thinking of grabbing it due to the positive reception around these parts.
Thing is, I don't take MP games seriously at all. I'll always have a podcast or something in the background, and I never use a mic. In fact, I always immediately mute all players when given the option.
Is Siege for me, or should I stick to Black Ops and Rocket League?

It's certainly possible to play without communicating - I do it often. However, the game has designed around working as a team and communicating with teammates, and it really shines when played as such. Also, immediately muting all players is a pretty bad idea in this game.
I suppose if it's on sale you might as well give it a go.
Edit: Oh wow, I somehow missed the podcast bit. You really need to devote your full attention to both the visuals and sound in this game, or you could end up being a detriment to your team.
Siege is an intense game that requires your full attention. You can do fine without a mic in non-ranked mode but sound is a fundamental part of this game.
Game needs your full attention at all times and not communicating with your team can completely lose you a round you would have otherwise won.
I'd say skip it if you need to play games like you describe.
its weird because if that really was the last ennemy, the round would have ended as soon as he got in the trap or when the second to last ennemy died.
you cannot be "down but not out" as the last player of the team.

He can be dbno as last enemy if he's in the secure room. As for moving while down due to a frost trap, i doubt it's possible.
In case anyone's interested there should be a "Go4R6 Cup" ESL tournament starting in about 15 minutes [3 PM eastern] today. This is for North America, PC. I watched a bit last week and there were some good high level matches without the nonsense people come across playing against random people. There's no official stream but many of the players stream themselves anyway. I watched FPSzed last week, he's probably the most popular streamer that's playing in the tournament at this level [plays for LiT which is ranked #1 right now.] Hopefully he'll stream again today.
How do you join this? I am guessing all games are custom matches with a spectator?
Didn't see any spectators last week. They use ESL Wire to check for cheats and such. They do use custom matches with a 3 minute time limit instead of 4. As for signing up, you sign up as a team I think but I don't know too much. There should be more info on their site.

I have major issues with at least one teammate leaving or getting disconnected mid-match. It's happened about every other match now and it puts a serious damper on holding a chance to win the match. Worst case was when we were winning, 2-0, but one of our teammates dropped and immediately lost all following rounds.
Matchmaking not playing very nice at all to refill the gap.

I like to watch Jinji http://www.twitch.tv/jinjilive
He restreams streams and commentates them with his friend EzPz.
Once you can properly have 2 spectators in the game they will use that mode to cast matches properly live.
Guy knows a lot of the pro players so he has access to them and they both have good insight into the tactics of the high level plays
Cool, I'll keep an eye on this, looks like the way to go. Some teams got a bye but things are finally getting started. Brackets for the NA tournament: http://play.eslgaming.com/rainbowsi...ege/major/go4r6-north-america/cup-4/rankings/

yeah. im shooting for that platinum now so i really only have TH left. I usually just join a normal TH and just stomp right through it in a few minutes with other people instead of alone (cuz im a big baby who doesnt like doing it alone lol)
It will unlock once you reach level 20 by playing casual matches, terrorist hunt, and situations.

It'd be cool of they had a stat for how often rounds were won by completing the objective versus eliminating the enemy team. Sometimes the game just feels too death match-y.
Wish I could find the quote, it may have been from a podcast interview, but I remember hearing the developers expected the main goal of the game, based on the premise, is to eliminate the enemy team and the objectives were ancillary to that. It also explains why there aren't a slew of online modes at this stage.
Not saying I wouldn't like more emphasis on PTFO, especially since you can steal wins from the other team when they aren't focused.
is there anyway to access a map or overlay during play? It amazes me how poorly the game does a job of teaching you the map layouts. I know of playing a private game with no bots as a method (albeit weird and timed shortly) but is there anything else that can help? I've logged in 30+ hours and I still have a very poor idea of how the maps are structured.
Exactly how I'm feeling. I'm very new to the game and it should teach you a better way of learning these intricate maps. There really should be a map overlay button or something.
make a custom game where you change the playtime to 10 minutes.
otherwise, you learn pretty quickly by just playing.
there is also this

make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
Well I'll give them credit, they created unique nomenclature for every room, hallway, space in every map. Keep an eye on the area names whilst piloting your drone during recon phase, and it will help you learn the maps. Same with cameras, they give you the location.
This also helps with call outs, with everyone knowing the location names.

Is there a way, in game, to view the personal stats that are available on the R6 ubisoft website?

Any good console streamers? Everyone I watch is PC but the game plays so much faster, it's not quite as useful if you're trying to watch someone for their habits.

See, I actually DO like the HDR/bloom lighting and how it is an actual element of the game. It fits perfectly with Attackers/Intruders vs. Defenders--I like that the outer walls of the building become a kind of "dividing line" and it's mostly balanced, for both Attackers and Defenders.
Attackers can't see inside very well and Defenders can't see outside very well.
However, I was asking just because I noticed that the "problem" seems nonexistent on a lot of my YT channels--but it's likely because it's an effect you can turn off.
I appreciate that they made HDR a gameplay concern and not JUST a "we're going to throw this in our game because it's how eyes kinda work, without any consideration on how it affects the game". I really like that Glaz's scope is designed to equalize the lighting range difference.
Related to that--it seems to be based on balancing the overall "light" on the screen. Using an ACOG can actually mitigate the dynamic range difference, because you're filling the screen with the area you want to see, so your player's eyes eyes "normalize" better. Works for looking out and in.

Nice--I figured Feb would be a bug/exploit/network fix-up month. It's even more exciting that they're taking ESL seriously for Siege.

EDIT: Clipping now fixed?
I've gotten some cheeky kills from clipping.

LOL. I've had people actually chuck nitro cells off the reading room balcony onto our whole team as we walked by.
