The outside cameras on this map give defence such an advantage. ( I marked the whole team when they busted through the windows)
Even got the guy to TK...that's just beautiful!

Using CS tactics in this game felt so good lol. Smoking the defuser while guarding it was enough to protect it from getting destroyed.

It seems to take forever to find a match if you have a squad of 4 in ranked. Anyone know a good work around or want to come be our 5th on Xbox right now? GT Downcrashing

Using the defender's mounted machinegun against them...God is real.

What FOV do you play at on PC?

Max, of course. It's tricky using a shield though, since what looks covered at 90 degrees isn't actually covered in the game's default FOV.

Tonight I learned you can shoot bottles and other shit to create noise-making debris. Glass crunches under foot, etc.

Didn't know that. Awesome!
I still don't know what could they possibly expect, when they plant the grenade cluster.
Killcam lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smoEIrfuuHE
I just don't understand how he killed me if he even never had target on me at all in that killcam.
I love this game but sometimes that kind of bullshit makes me throw keyboard and mouse against monitor. I watching all my yesterdays game recordings and 2/3 of all my death I facepalm and can't explain what's happening there.

Died early in a round last night and watched two teammates hide behind the hostage in a freezer. They were so close to the hostage that one of them would shoot in order to make the hostage start ducking in order to have line of sight at the door. I watched as two members of the other team slowly approached, one shielding the other, all the way up to the hostage and then coordinated shots to take out both of my teammates without hurting the hostage. It was inspiring.

On offense you can access your already active drone. On defense I believe it lets you access cameras in the house/wherever you are.
I don't use them as much as I should.
Yes, as a defender you have to press down or right on the d-pad to go into live feed. You can mark enemies via the camers. L1/R1 to cycle through camers, and triangle to mark enemies. Attackers can shoot the cameras.
I didn't know this at all. Thanks for it! I'll keep an eye out for these cameras in the future.
Most of them will be already destroyed. On ranked games players pretty much know every camera position and as they enter the room they shoot them down as they move through.
I'm really loving it so far. I'v been playing CS for the last few years and R6 really got me hooked.
As I'm new to console shooters, the controls are a big problem for me. It's simply the lack of precision. I've seen myself and others wasting dozens of bullets just to hit invading drones.
So I'm thinking about switching to PC.
Can someone tell me if it'll run well on a Phenom II X4 955 with a gtx660?
The list from the OT also indicates that there a quite a few EUs playing it on PC, so I was wondering if you would take me in?

Omg The last situation before multi-player really shows up the AI issues - they are simultaneous dumb and yet their guns are always aimed at you - and the hostage extradition part is bonkers I don't believe anyone would do it first time

It's left on the D-pad. It only stays up for 3 seconds.

I have fond memories of earlier R6 titles (primarily RavenShield).
Is this game more of a CoD clone, or is it a slower-paced tactical shooter?

It a slower-paced tactical shooter. Well you can try to run and gun but most likely will die unless you are really with great aim and lucky enough not to catch a random bullet to your head.
This game might have some of the worst players I've ever seen in a game. Like these people probably need to whistle to know which end of shit out of in a morning. If it's not the rampant mouth breathing it's the walking through traps when I'm blatantly trying to destroy them!
This game makes me more angry than Dota 2. That's a fucking amazing achievement.

It really does. People doing the oddest shit on attack but mostly defend. Totally forgetting to/not knowing to reinforce walls or use their "special" ability/equipment. Those running outside from the start... some still teamkilling at random... others wanting to all hole up, all 5 guys in the small objective room. Ugh... i do not like playing this game without a full party lol.
Do you guys sometimes encounter the bug where everyone finished loading but you can not select an operator and end up being a recruit ingame?
Yeah.
Only had it happen twice though.

I've had great success using his cluster charges on offset rooms next to the hostage.
Anyone Feel free to add me. I play with 2 other military friends of mine on the reg. We use good communication and strategy, for the most part.
MAX-PAYMENT on PSN
Lol this describes one of my games yesterday perfectly. Had a guy pick Fuse and kill the hostage (like I didn't see that one coming), then the same guy shot me at the start of the round and had to revive me, finally they all bunkered into a tiny room (upstairs in the strip club, you know the room) as if that wasn't a recipe for disaster. With that being said, even with randoms, when there's communication it's awesome.
I played the
final hidden
Played it with 4 randoms, but we all had mics. It was awesome coordinating everything, and no one took it too seriously (we were laughing quite a bit). After the first bomb diffuse a terrorist blew himself up taking 3 of our teammates with him, so it was just me and another guy (both low on health). We got the objective done, but there was a LOT of tense moments and planning of execution.
EDIT: Added you MAX-PAYMENT

Not his biggest fan, but LevelCap has a video covering what is fixed in the new patch, which is supposed to launch within 1-2 weeks.
Big one: "Pawn rotation latency" bug is being fixed. This is the difference being player action vs server perception vs other players' perception and probably accounts for a lot of the cheap kills, especially when you're inexplicably killed when using the shield.
Also, from Ubi:

Fuze has the best DPS in the game with his gun. As long as your team has Thatcher and Thermite taken it doesn't really matter that much what the rest are.

I really like the game. Hope that soon patch will roll in and like Levelcap said many things will be fixed.
What I dislike right now is health/armor/damage system. I tried to look around the web for some info but there's literally none.
Basicly when you pick a weapon in loadout it shows you stats like 38 or 45 damage etc. I expect these numbers to work like they do in CS or BF - players have 100 hp, legs/arms count for less and headshot is instakill. Yet after being killed on the deathcam there's a damage log and it often has figures like 20 or 15 damage when enemy is equiped with AR or PWD. I usually use guys with armor, so that might be the effect of armor? yet the game shows no real stats for it at all. All I wanna know - does armor mean really anything? I'm ok with being slow, but I don't use some operators without it.
Man I wish levelcap and matimio did a video about armor and damage systems in the game.

that's why good players on the attacking team will take those cameras out immediately. It's the stuff you learn along the way
Sounds great. Love how they're listening to the community. Also, damn it now I wish those were avatars available for PSN!

Some clips from last night, playing with four squadmates (including my brother, LdrPierce):
Sometimes people are hard to see
Clearing the match coordinating with my brother (wish X1 recorded party chat)
Felt like a badass here
Love the ragdolls in this sometimes
Yeah, the armor impact is a little obscure. Three dots don't really tell us much
EDIT: Also, patch can't come soon enough. It's not so much connecting to a (Casual) match--it's connecting with your whole party. Frequently had 1-2 people who got dropped during matchmaking.
And yeah, REALLY hope Ranked gets fixed with the patch, too.
Glad they have committed to releasing at least one patch per month.

ok so here are some stats men were able to gather. 1,2 and 3 are levels of armor. damage reduction is almost non-excistant for less then 20 meters. I wonder why there's damage drop at all in a game like this but whatever Ubi... I mean look at this - AR does 3 shot kills no matter what armor one has if you shoot good enough. Well I guess its time to unlock operators without armor for it doesn't really matter.

Didn't realize pistols were so lethal.
They can be pretty effective at times. One hit headshots if you can play it accordingly. I'm glad its not a peashooter.
