>$50 skin
>Embark dewokeified female Medium not even a month after the shit they pulled in Arc
There is absolutely no way they are this desperate. Wasn't it stated on actual earnings reports that the game has grown in revenue? Feels like I'm missing something here.

Need tips. Is the ARN220 a good gun to use with Light? I like the V9S but I get a little tired always pressing M1. M11 sucks at range and the recoil is unwieldy for me. I am not that good at real close range fights.

>>3094495
The simple answer for the $50 skin is that this is a Light season. They're advertising to Lights, they're catering to Lights. Light gets a new playstyle and effectively had 90% of its arsenal buffed with only 10% of its weapons nerfed, and even then it's a localized nerf.

Lights have also always been tryhard faggots that always spent way more on edgy or tacticool cosmetics. It started back all the way in CB1 with every Light wearing the Urban Operative set. Then they were the quickest adopters of paying for the Metro Drifter set when it was one of the first big deluxe skins. Then they also all used the IVADA Stryker set, although that one's iffy because many also got it for free from Game Pass

Point being, it's all about the Lights this time, and the Lights are genuinely dumb enough to spend $50 on a grim reaper set

>>3094505
ARN is great but it's more of a medium range gun than close up.

>>3094527
That sounds good for me. I was trying the XN if that's what it's called. I don't think it jives with me.

Anyway is there a way to see all rewards of the new sponsors?

Can you not see what the sponsor track gives you before signing up for them anymore?
Also can you still leave that sponsor and sign up with another one like before? Or are you locked in?

just as I expected, this season sucks as a medium main

>>3094537
You can't see all the rewards, but you can preview the ones currently available. It's divided into challenges which aren't all currently available. I'm guessing as the season progresses more challenges will be unlocked to unlock more stuff.
But you can just sign up with one, see what's available and if you don't like it then leave and sign up with another.
A little weird but it seems Embark wants completing sponsors to feel like more of an actual challenge than something you passively do playing the game like before.

>>3094577
I think it's a good solution, but you just know eventually you'll run into some bullshit you don't want to play and have to slug through it. I picked iseult too and had a fun game flashing everyone on point break.

Slam a rama is the most dog shit gamemode wtf. Everyone just bounces on a big jump pad and hopes to get someone who's not also doing that.

>>3094560
M hasn't had a good season since their reign of terror in S1 and 2. it's always some version of L or H trading blows for most OP.

>>3094495
Embark said something like they wanted more bodytypes in the game, and the reason for the flat chested girls was because they didnt want to do gendered sculpts for the cosmetics (IE adding tits to every top in the game). Arc actually has the opposite issue, like half the cosmetics in the game have tits and it looks awkward on the male characters.

That's totally as significant as two new gadgets and a total revamp of Thermal Senses
Medium's totally eating: it got something back it should have 10 seasons ago, while also getting passed over in line for a Senses rework. WHOA.
>not to mention various buffs for their weapons
Uh, where?
They pretty much only got minor adjustments to be able to just barely keep a lot of the old breakpoints they used to have against Lights.

Ah wait, duh, I'm talking to a Light that unironically says "r*ddit heavy"
It's not like you can really grasp any of this anyways, and I'm wasting my time

>>3095397
I hope they at least consider making old sponsor rewards something you can gain through showtime tokens or whatever the fuck they are. Give something to the people who don't give a fuck about buying legacy passes.

And I say this as someone that's glad that my CNS Jacket is getting some exclusivity back

>>3095857
It's some bullshit. They give a minor buff to Heavy speed, take away health, and weapons are pretty much the same. The extra rpm on Lewis and M60 feels nice, but it's pretty much the same shit. I don't know about anybody else, but speed wasn't exactly an issue on Heavy. You're a big, easy target, tend to get jumped and the weapons you get don't really have the damage capability to fend off multiple back to back. Nobody is watching the Heavy or covering you. Most retards can't even be bothered to mark enemy locations. Could have at least tossed Heavy a new gun or something.

>>3096062
>I don't know about anybody else, but speed wasn't exactly an issue on Heavy
Yeah. The speed buff isn't really enough to really matter in a teamfight, and their own data showed meager gains (although they argue gains nonetheless) for cohesion. The ability to actually move a Heavy around quickly and as a team still depends far more on team loadout and choices to be cohesive.

Ironically, something the data also showed, given that Shockwave directly caused a decrease in cohesion, and Medium wasn't touched at all.

Similarly, Light also won't be affected by this change a lot. Their most powerful movement all comes from their specs, so slowing down means nothing. The change to the healthpool means that, at worst, they're only at the same breakpoints against unadjusted weapons, and stronger against those that weren't.

>>3096185
It seems like they just want Heavy to be a bitch class where all you're doing is making it easier for your lazy-fuck teammates to swoop in and clean up after you've already done the hard part. It's not really rewarding. They keep jerking off Lights and it's like, why shouldn't I just go do that since they get all kinds of neat shit, have great weapons and is a pretty easy class to play. I don't get it.

>>3096247
>Heavy to be a bitch class where all you're doing is making it easier for your lazy-fuck teammates to swoop in and clean up after you've already done the hard part
Kinda, but the fact does remain that it kind works

Like it's the bitch class in the sense that it's all about destruction, and destruction is just so strong in this game that even weapons that are objectively dogshit in all its other functions like the KS-23 is able to end up definitively meta because it has destruction slapped on top.

Although who knows. Light might actually have a shot at challenging Heavy in that regard too, thanks to using the mimic device with red barrels.

This update fucking sucks. Lights did not need more health. Turning this shit into COD.

Someone here give a new player the Ultimate pass. All the items there are my type.

Anyway I need help. I only play Point Break. What should be the specific gadgets to use in that mode for L/M/H?
I actually don't know how to properly help in this mode. I use Sonars for Lights. Any other gadgets I should be using? For medium I don't know which is better, Shockwave or Healing beam. Not sure about the gadgets there either.

How much do I have to play everyday to complete the battlepass?

>>3098505
Basically just do your 3 dailies and 2 optional contracts every day and you should have like 20ish days to spare at the end if you're just looking to complete the pass. That's how its been for the past 6 or 7 passes iirc

>>3098511
What I mean is basically all 14 pages complete. Like until level 106?

>>3098701
Yeah man, you'll be 106 by the end. You still want to be finishing your weeklies along the way for the full XP gains but you should be able to do 90% of them casually along the way. Not sure how extra xp from new sponsors factors in or if the total XP needed is changed. Just my experience since S1, the only one I didn't max out was the aztec one because I thought the green shit at the end was ugly.

That's good then. I feel I like the premium there so I will be doing the dailies and weeklies at least and maybe get them if I'm really interested later. As a new player the ones in the Ultimate look great especially the coin skins. Only if it wasn't that expensive.

Yes, in the ISEUL-T track
>later contracts are just way harder
In the second set of ISEUL-T contracts, one of them requires you to get 1,500 damage in one life. That's damage roughly equal to 4.5 Heavies, 6 Mediums, or 8.5 Lights (not actually 10 because of the Respec change)

Bit of an immediate jump, but ISEUL-T is also geared more towards Lights, so my guess is they expect you to do it with the Sniper Rifle.

>>3100153
>Yes, in the ISEUL-T track
I'm in the Iseul-T and I haven't seen any new shoes for it yet.
>one of them requires you to get 1,500 damage in one life
I did this using Medium and a Pike and it was horrendous because I was fucking hiding at the back so hard. I really did not like doing this one. That's why I was asking if the contracts now work with bot matches.

The KS-23 is what really gets me to hate Lights

Like, everything about the gun is objectively terrible. Shitty as fuck TTK. Shitty as fuck reload speed. Shitty as fuck kills per reload. Shitty as fuck range. So on and so forth. It has destruction, but then using it for destruction will eat into your ammo even further

But then it nevertheless became a godlike meta weapon because Heavies actually adapted to it. They played with its weaknesses in mind, and accepted that they'd have longer or potentially riskier engagements if it meant being able to play with all of its features, becoming gods of movement and mastering terrain navigation and map knowledge to get those slaps in with minimal risk to themselves

It's why even as it gets a ridiculous nerf down to its pre-S11 damage but with an infinitely worse damage falloff from S11, Heavies just buck up and deal with it. They still make it work.

But then conversely, whenever Light gets anything that's tweaked that allows them to just jump on people and magdump before jumping out, they screech to no end. You tell them "oh just use these tools to keep poking and repositioning to get damage in without risk to yourself" and they will unironically go "you don't need to ambush again if you just kill them, let us just immediately kill them no matter what!!!"

entitled children is what they are

>>3100285
You clearly got filtered by a high skill weapon

>>3100439
Damn Lights like you not even reading past the first sense

The whole point is that Heavies DIDN'T let themselves get filtered by a high skill weapon, whereas Lights hate putting the minimum effort in for anything beyond instant gratification

>>3100285
I agree. Started playing again since last season and it's pretty clear to me that the light class is pampered too much.

>>3100602
No but dude, Light has it so bad. The class only has
>the best movement speed
>the best hitbox
>the best regen delay
>the best regen rate
>the best repositioning tools
>recon tools it stole from Medium
>healing tools to outclass Medium
>destruction tools to challenge Heavy
>weapons that can insta-kill all the other classes
>weapons like the LH1 that still challenge or even outpace the meta weapons for other classes
>infinite ammo ranged weapons in a game about breakpoints and where counting shots is a strong strategy
>those weapons both having stable accuracy and no damage falloff
but like, Dash Sword got slapped a bit and Dagger got a little fucky, so like, it all evens out

does anyone else just play cashout half the time because ranked feels like unplayable cancer with how it attracts these useless and ironically lower skill more retarded players especially duos, while also attracting sweaty opponent teams who actually understand the game?

>>3100676

I'd say either that on Attack or MGL32 on Defense would do it pretty decently

That's more because the game is not using a hidden elo system alongside ranked points when matchmaking. Also there just isn't that many people playing ranked in general so no matter what, you're going to get fed to rubby poopsockers.

Heavy class is beginning to be so unrewarding to play. I've had multiple invis Lights rush me, mag dump me and they survive with just a chip of health. Why the fuck does Light need to be smaller, more agile and have piss-easy high damage weapons? I could just switch to Light and go Call of Duty style, too, but I used to like playing Heavy. They need to give it back some more health or buff the weapons, or something. Nobody actually stays and helps any Heavy players anyway. They wait until they hear the shit popping off and then they show up after you've already died and just pick up a bunch of easy, already mostly dead enemies and act like they did something.

Heavy. Took away health from the Tank class for negligible mobility gains. You're treated like en expendable torpedo and it's not worth it anymore. Went back to Medium.

>>3106007
You just know they only did it so lights wont get mad dying to heavies

>>3106052
The game is becoming way too Light-centric. I get it. It's the "gotta' go fast" class for kids that really like the feeling of being some pro gamer, but it didn't need more health as well as all the other benefits of playing it. A Light shouldn't see a Heavy as an easy tally mark and that's what it is now. They outright challenge you with full confidence because they know they'll probably out DPS you before you can hit/finish them. They're way too comfortable challenging what's supposed to be a tank. Fucking stupid. Light players cry over melee while they have the best fucking arsenal of weapons. It's going to get to a point where Heavy just doesn't matter.

Is there some exploit people are doing in bot matches? They leave and they're nowhere in the match anymore, but at the end they appear with kills and score. Me and a dude just ran it and the third dude left, but still showed up on the scoreboard like he was there.

>>3106007
Yeah, between respec and the ISEUL-T challenges wanting you to play Light, I've pretty much switched away from playing Heavy.

Thanks to the health change, you REALLY want to keep your teammates around you now, but that's not happening because everyone's running Shockwave and Grapple and doing Mimic Superdashes or Translocating or whatever the fuck, and even when it sort comes together and you're nearby during fights, it's like, just because you're closer doesn't suddenly mean that randos play more like a team than before.

Like I'd rather just play Light where the ask is entirely personal: compensate what differences there are in TTK with ambushes, repositioning, constant movement, and deadeye accuracy. That's completely feasible, especially since I already had to do that as the other classes but with way less tools to do so.

Whereas with Heavy, the ask is "hope to god your teammates will work with you, help you get where you need, follow your movement, and give you backup as you park the bus." That's all outside of my control. I can't do anything about that. Worst of all, it'll never get addressed because people at the high level will have a team that will work together for ungodly effectiveness, and Heavies don't buy enough edgy cosmetics to be catered to in spite of that, so it might never be fixed

>>3106495
Yeah. Most people don't even give a shit about team work. They're only interested in trying to fluff their KD by playing like rats. I lost a match earlier because I'm holding off 2 Heavies and covering an OBJ. Somebody slipped in and stole the OBJ about 10 feet away and I have both of these Heavies on the ropes and can't let off the gas or I'm fucked. Other 2 dudes fucked off who knows where. Do they show up and try to take the OBJ? No. They immediately rush enemies I've almost killed, both of these idiots die, I kill the heavies and we lose. Playing as a Heavy, that's the entire experience. People would rather swoop in just to steal your kills instead of doing anything productive. It's a total rarity to even get people to mark target movements. You have to do way too much while everybody else gets to fuck around. Hopefully, they do something to improve it.

Sweating my ass off trying to get this. 6 kills, 2 assists with sniper light in power shift then I step on a random ass landmine and die. FUCK ME

>>3106628
Point Break is the key. Grenade Launchers and Sniper Rifles on there are a great way to get it without just playing naturally and waiting for that big elim streak you need. Especially since you don't need to keep moving with the platform + you oddly often don't get counter-sniped on Point Break as much

It's a weird roadblock though. Same for the challenge set after, which is the 10 Elims, 3 First Elims one. After that though, it gets super easy.

>>3106652
Sniper might be the way to go. Just hang back and harass the enemy team. Wouldn't even go for headshots if it's just damage you have to stack up.

>>3106652
>>3106695
You were right, point break was the way to do it. I did it in one game with MGL Heavy and just playing really defensively. Not that hard at all

I wish people would keep their issues with the ultimate pass from tanking the regular battle pass this season.

Like aside from a couple of dud pages that yeah, would've benefited from something like the Sai being there instead of the mimic device, it's a really good set of outfits, skins, and models.

Just feels like you can complain about the size of the gap in quality between the Regular and Ultimate Pass as being a problem without saying that the regular pass is outright shit. It being a B-Grade pass that could've been S-Tier if basic versions of the Ultimate Pass items were in it is already scandalous enough. Trying to pretend it's a D-Tier one when certifiably cool shit like the outback dude or the marble outfit exist really comes across as a whole "don't believe your lying eyes" sorta shit when calling it lame

I am not having a good day on this shit. Consistently doing "well" but losing left and right. I can't seem to get teammates who aren't retarded. This is fucking brutal man.

>>3106830
I feel that. It's why I'm glad they added the Stay as a Party shit. The minute I find a competent team, I hang onto them like a fukken lifeline.

Where to do this? It sucks.

>>3107511
I'd try Quick Cash. Everybody should be running straight to a vault so your odds of fighting early are there. If you don't get it, at least the matches can be short and you don't have to quit. Almost wonder if you can play Light, book ass to a vault and strap a bomb to it and leave without activating the vault so another dumbass Light runs up to it thinking they got there first.

I've been at it for a day now. And I just can't get it. Honestly one of the worst challenges.

>>3107756
Thing that sucks is that you'll be locked into whatever because you can't just back out and try again without getting a temporary suspension. You could try the solo mode. First time I played it, I got One In The Chamber. I don't know what other modes are in there because they have that stupid Easter mode reskinned with grenade launchers, but you can basically just try and then fuck around and fail to get cut from the game.

Nah light is too strong, I played a few matches and the translocator alone is busted, especially in super tight quarters, you can just set it and then have an immediate exit the second you are at a disadvantage. not to mention that the XP, V9S and LH1 are still super op. Heavy got the shaft right up the ass

>>3107782
This is the one that is stupid amongst everything else. You cannot do any other group of challenges at all if you are hard stuck at this. I was wondering why people were leaving immediately after games where there was only one dead at the beginning of the match. Now I know why. This challenge basically destroys casual games.

>>3107830
Yeah. That's a bullshit challenge. One time would be fine, but 3 times? You could maybe Quick Cash it and hope you get Monoco. Get to the rooftops fast and try to pop a Light in the head with a sniper rifle. Everybody rushes rooftops and one of those fuckers is almost always up there.

>>3107511
>>3107756
I did it super quickly in Power Shift. You can go Light, zip over to where the enemy team spawns, dive someone, and get it. It helps that people usually spread out pretty quickly in that mode too.

I wouldn't call myself good, but aside from a few matches where I kept dealing with accidentally dropping onto a queued-together duo, I got it near-immediately

>>3107825
It's really strong as an opener too. Being able to just suddenly appear over people and drop in behind them because you had someone throw a prop far enough above them. Like before at least movement like Grapple you had to do the swing safely, it had a sound, and you didn't launch up so high (and the translocator being a gadget grapple but arguably better is a mess in and of itself)

>>3106495
Worst of all, if you solo Q is a heavy, you WILL get a duo both playing light, and they will play like a duo (at best, otherwise, just mindlessly) and ignore your existence until you are dead an then they run in and try and revive you or steal cashbox while the enemy team is right above with demat

I did it but man it was so unfun.

I basically left every game I joined within the first few seconds if I wasn't able to get the 1st kill. I think left like 50+ games? Give or take. I really do not like doing that.
These challenges are making me not actually play the game.

Now I'm stuck with the 10 elims per round. This can be done in Point Break. As a shitty player this is hard for me but at least now I can fucking play the game because this is a natural gameplay challenge.

Now what the fuck is this in the picture? I didn't even know I did it.

whats the best video explaining how to consistently use shockwave with jumppad? its like i cant time it anymore unless im going straight up

Not sure if it's my potato graphics but the smoke/dust when a building collapses is extremely obnoxious

Why all my skins look so washed out now in the loadout menu?

>>3109068
If 10 kills a round is hard, you could probably rat that one. Steal people's kills and maybe keep a sentry deployed so it has a chance to get you a kill or two. Just don't leave it if it's getting no action. Call it back and redeploy it to spots where it can shoot people. Sentry will kind of give you a heads-up on fighting, too. It even marks targets now.

IM SO FUCKING SICK OF DUOS

Picrel is a perfect example. I eliminated the entire Purple team Solo. Notice the dude in the right. That's my teammate. Who literally ran up the stairs BRUSHING ELBOWS WITH AN ENEMY and didn't even try to fight him. He literally ran in from behind the enemy, up the stairs while brushing an enemy and never even thought, "Hey. Maybe I should punch this purple dude" or anything.

Ok, i admit it...
It's my fault, not the visibly braindead duo, one, the other or both are total noobs yet INSIST on skipping straight to the mode that people who more or less know what they are doing like to play.
No no, i should be grateful they chose this gamemode, because just like battle royale, it makes these shitters think they're the ones steering the ship, controlling the character, putting the triangle through the triangle shaped hole, when in reality it's their older brother (me). They gave me the opportunity to shine, to prove to the world that i am the THE FINALS Jesus, here on earth to uplift the broken, sinful, retarded masses and consoletard ways...
It wouldn't be fun if i got an actually decent duo or fellow soloq warriors in 2/10 matches. What i really deserve is a minimum of 90% fresh installs and weakminded/delusional hardstuck retards, because as the skill based matchmaking system knows, my win ratio, kill ratio, support score is 0/0/0/00/0/0/0/0 in every match so i DESERVE this. It would be a shame if i won too many matches and decided to stop tweaking my loadout and going back to roll the dice on another match, 'casual' or ranked queue.
I guess i should equip the heal gun and hide behind two light players. Or 1v3 a LLL/HLM team with two mediums both using turret or healbeam (or shockwave for the 5 dmg) because they deep down know they can't aim at all, even with their shitty AKMs or p90's.
And i suppose it's also kind of my fault for playing at the start of the season, i should just wait another few weeks for the tourists to get bored and moved on to MW4 or eventually GTA6.

I play the OBJ, but some of the people they give you are just dumb fucks that you have to babysit. You have to do everything. You have to mark targets, you have to shoot targets, you have to lay traps or support items you have to cover the OBJ and you look at your teammates and they're playing fucking COD trying to camp corners and shit. Me and this dude earlier were practically dragging this Heavy to the finish line because he wanted to run a fucking sledgehammer and we're trying to tell him switch to a fucking gun and he just insisted on using the hammer. From the start he was weighing us down. Had a big-ass skirmish and I'm laying down fire on everything I can see and this retard couldn't secure one kill. People need to spend some time in bot modes before coming in to real shit. It will actually make you better.

Yeah. And you barely even notice them being just a smidge slower. They're still challenging you head-on with their balls out using a gun that 9/10 times will melt you if you can't deal with them quick. You have to give just that extra bit of effort and it's like, why man?

>>3111129
OP here (other reply wasn't me), the objective is to either kill or not die to the other fucking team. If you kill them they cant do objective, if you dont die you can stop them.

At least the Mythic XP54 and the IseulT costumes look good.

>>3114103
Not sure if you meant to reply to the other guy but shockwave specialization does have a glitch effect as of recent, but medium also has a glitch mines that are in the gadget slot. Sure if you have both equipped you could rack stuff like that twice as fast. But yeah glitch mines are great because like the motion sensor they can trigger multiple times on the same target and count towards your mission.

So this was what you guys were saying? The bare feet thing? I was so confused a few days ago when someone said feet, feet, feet. I thought "what was so imprtant about shoes?" Turns out it's actually bare feet. The fuck is this for?
Anyway my actual question is what does the contract mean by "Play 5 tournaments?" Does that mean rank? I don't wanna play rank though.
The "open 5 vaults", that's quick cash right? The one where you run and activate the box to bring it to the cashbox?

>>3114287
>The fuck is this for?
foot fags devs injecting their fetishes into the finals

>"Play 5 tournaments?" Does that mean rank?
Both Cashouts (ranked and unranked) work. Not like you gotta win, you just gotta play them. I actually kinda wonder if the solo mode counts since technically thats using a tournament style bracket as well. If it does that might be the fastest way to grind it out since you can control how quickly you lose.

>The "open 5 vaults", that's quick cash right? The one where you run and activate the box to bring it to the cashbox?
Yeah it just means anything with a vault. Ranked cashout, cashout, or quickcash. I personally think for those its far easier to accomplish in cashout if only because 2 pop up at a time. So often times you're only competing against 1 other team rather than consistently 2 in quick cash.

I like the ruleset more. Coin timing is very important and counter picking a launchernigger with APS in the final round always feels amazing

>>3114382
The ruleset is fun enough. Not being able to swap from the reserve on wipe and there being a team wipe penalty is a pretty good alternative to how WT Cashout plays. I wouldn't say it's outright better, since counterpicking in WT is pretty fun and you also have the fact that Ranked lacks gameshow events, but it's still worth playing from time to time.

>>3114700
Wipes basically going unpunished in WT is why I don't play it. It changes how teams play a LOT and makes a huge difference

Spotlight is just Cashout on the maps that got the changes. It's all the same. Just pray you lose quickly enough.

>>3116936
It's not that bad. You'll probably lose and get cut early if you don't really try. That saves time.

Also. I'd like to add that these new challenges are really bad for the game because of the shit people are doing for them. I won't knock anybody for throwing or quitting once they complete one, but that's basically the door Embark opened when they made these changes. Regular fan progression was fine.

>>3117016
I agree. The type of challenges make it so people actually do not want to engage with the game properly. They really should not make it an ultimatum type of challenges where if you know you won't get it, just leave.

I've seen so many people immediately leave games and it makes it annoying for the rest of the team. It doesn't mean it's just casual it means it is fine to happen.

I just started Cashout. Do you get bot teammates here? I am not good at all. But I think I can actually do damage. I can get okay K/Ds in other modes for a shitty ass beginner. I get like .9KD most of the time.

But for some reason here in Cashout I am currently 1 kill and 40 deaths already in 6 games. My teammates are also the same 0 kills and at least 11 deaths always and I get to be always last place.

Yeah. You're gonna' get tards for sure. Lots of them. I did about 5 matches today and never even won despite putting it on them. 2 matches I had teammates who were all about comms, using their heads to strategize and they weren't crying and throwing tantrums went it didn't work out. They just didn't have the skill needed to do some of the shit we were trying. Use your mic and just be chill and that will help you a ton. It's a team game. Stay with your homies.

>>3117225
No bots, but there's definitely some SBMM involved, and there's also definitely some smurfs out there, so be ready to be matched with fellow retards against people that for some reason feel the need to stomp on retards for validation.

Best advice I'd give is that, if you're able to completely give up all desires, just follow your teammates around no matter what. No matter how fucking retarded they are. No matter how little they play the objective. If you aren't able to take the lead or carry, then you were already at the whim of what they were doing, so if they were already going to fuck off and not play the objective, you might as well go with them and get some damage in.

>>3117289
Accurate as all fuck. People will go along with a bad plan if that's the only plan on the table. I think we're all guilty of marching along on a suicide run know damn well the plan sucks. Lol

Was the nerf to Heavy's health pool really warranted considering he's still xbox huge and slow

>>3117560
Hell no. I understand that, ideally, Heavy will have people backing them up, but the smallest and most nimble class should not be able to melt a Heavy in a head to head.

>>3117560
Nah, not realy

>>3117570
Well the tricky issue is that Light still can't do that

To save on post size and posting some math, the average gap in TTK between Heavy and Light is about a 0.43s advantage on Headshots and a 0.64s advantage on bodyshots in the Heavy's favor. If it were just raw aimduels, then Heavy generally should still have the win in most fights.

The issue is more Light's ability to engage and disengage from just about anywhere on the map on a whim, and still has a 2s faster regen delay after the nerf. You're basically able to endlessly keep damage on your opponents while also being able to bug out at any time yourself to reload or try to top off. Given that the speed buff is so minor, Heavies are gonna be right around where you left them, so you're free to hop right back in and finish them off.

This HP change is just enough wiggle room taken away from Heavy and given to Light that you can't shoulder your way through the whittling anymore, and they can afford to be what basically feels absolutely brazen now.

Still find it crazy that embark threw heavy mains under the bus for light mains

>>3117688
We just gotta' be honest about it. People don't want to play the tank. People want to play the hotboy classes. The "gotta' go fast" speed demons zipping around doing ninja shit. Medium is for your average joe, Light is for the guy who free bases G-Fuel and Heavy is for people who just can't let it go. Lol I felt like I was really hitting my stride with Heavy before the changes and now I really don't want to touch it.

>>3117712
I'll put it this way. Medium and Light are the red and blue Power Ranges. Heavy is the black one. Nobody ever said: "Please buy me the black one."

>>3117688
Lights are easily the majority of the playerbase.
As long as they're able to delete someone in <1second and have panic buttons that prevent them from facing the consequences of misplays they're going to be the most popular and get favoritism patches.

>Nerf the winch
>Heavy is too strong at long range

>Heavy is too tanky

>Goo gun allows you to close the gap on lights
>Nerf it
They really just want you to be a stationary Lewis gun heal ball bot

>>3117736
That's what I'm saying. Heavy is just supposed to be a bitch class. You're expendable and your only job is to make everybody else look good. Players literally treat you like you're supposed to go in and make sure everything is nice and weak so they can hog all the glory.

>>3116261
But atleast it's a 5v5 mode. Yeah getting steamrolled sucks but it's nothing like getting royally fucked for 10 mins on quick cash

this season is a dud, the reworked maps are actually really good but everything else is meh at best. Respec order was a mistake and I wish every swede an allah ACKbhar

I think powershit is the worst game mode by far next to whenever they do the heavy hitters event. I usually love push cart modes in games, but somehow the finals take on it just feels horrible.

>>3117966
It's probably the maps accomodating for a lot of camping and taking potshots at range and having zero cover or ways to fight back that makes it unfun for you, which is honestly fair, those aspects suck ass.

Goo hammer was so fun. I'm still salty

>>3117688
I don't even mind lights being the annoying mosquito class, but it turned into the jack of all trades for momentary gain of the lowest rungs of gamers. They have explosives, utility, movement, and now more hp. They have the best melee weapons, the best long range weapons, the best cq weapons. The only thing they can't do at this point is sustained damage.
And now they'll continue going down this path because the season is the most popular in a long time. Invisibility has to be the most retarded shit ever in a shooter. Nobody has ever managed to make it work. Just steal the tf2 spy stealth if you MUST have that kind of degenerate gameplay in there.
And then instead of fixing the visibility issues, they just give the light class the ability to see through all the bullshit while they do it. How come lights get two options to turn invisible? Why doesn't the medium get the invis grenade? WHY WHY WHY

>>3117924
How the fuck did you know who the plushie and figurine were? I didn't know that was a mousepad, either. What the hell? Lol

>>3117688
Light has always had 'protagonist class' syndrome, all of the most gun gadgets and least amount of teamplay synergy with anyone else.

>>3118040
That's what I'm saying. Light is just overloaded with dope shit. Invis gotta' go. Just pull it or move it to Medium.

>decreased health given from 20 to 10
this proves there's a total drooling retard in charge of the balancing
50% reduction on pure numbers is indicative of a catastrophic understanding of the gameplay

Can someone teach me the mindset of Light? I only play TDM or Pointbreak. I always lost 1v1 fights. I'm not good obviously. But am I supposed to really just sometimes wait and then pounce when I am at an obvious advantage?

>>3118199
Light is a really stupid class to be playing on point break and just serve to be part of a weak defense or the reason a team blows through tokens quickly on attack. This goes for any mode, but if you're playing against idiots the high mobility and damage output will carry you far, but any level of turtling or group that knows to stick together will rip a light apart. Its just an opportunist class where you do damage and get out or ambush your targets. There are plenty of tools available that support this mindset. The recent update now has nearly every light carrying that stupid translocator to essentially get out of a fight free by just switching places with a marked object the moment they are showing signs of losing a fight. Lights have far less down time in fights with their faster health regen time, so its just a matter of putting constant pressure on a target.

>>3118199
buy kovakks or aimlabs and aim train
pick cloak and either XP, V9S or LH1
cloak somewhere high
pick potshots
when discovered flee
always wait for full regen (like 4 seconds anyways)
rinse and repeat

>>3118066
I can recognize the telltale signs of being a complete and utter faggot

>>3118116
healing beam is better

>>3118199
the best way to think of light is like Sombra or Spy from tf2 and overwatch, squishy dive class that is incredibly annoying when played well.

Genuinely one of the worst matches i've ever played where my team didn't intentionally throw or quit... and we qualified somehow..

(also just won the final 2-0, damn imagine playing ranked when this shits so chill)

>>3118746
I would say go point break and be that guy who stays at the back reviving everyone, looking for angles and just spamming whatever shit works into the direction of the objective
You are guaranteed to get atleast 2KD that way if your team doesn't get shitstomped (although if you want to finish it faster)

>>3118428
In a fight? No way, oftentimes while being heal beamed I wish the medium would just put it away and shoot. Burst healing of the infuser is amazing, dump it into your heavy and straight back into the fight

Just did a last minute double cashout steal for the first time.
Pretty cool... except i was the turret tard who stayed behind to guard the other box.
