Yeah, you do a bit more than just shoot stuff.

I think most of the Rainbow Six team have this except for Stu now and I hope he'll join in soon.

I didn't get the impression you like this Pete. Or was it just bounty hunt that cheesed you off?

I still don't particularly like this but it seems like it's the only game that everyone's going to be playing but yes bounty hunt can strawberry float right off.

I can empathise. It's annoying when the bank is busy.

Bounty Hunt is best, followed by Amped Hardpoint.

The problem is the games I played I was unable to bank any of my money as I was constantly being killed on the way to the bank and the game kept putting me further and further away each time I died which was stupid. I may as well have constantly had zero money for all the good it did me.
I managed to get to the bank once in two games due to both banks having campers blocking me.

Game types where camping is advantageous are not fun in a game focused so highly on mobility in my opinion. They are at odds with the game systems.

Bounty hunt is so good damn random. Attrition is best.

Attrition and Skirmish are best, pilot v pilot and bounty hunt are worst.

I'd agree.

Last night I played pilot v pilot on the canyon map (don't know the real name) and it devolved into a sniper match.

Which is basically the opposite of what the game should be

We're you using a wall or phase shift?

Haven't unlocked phase shift and only just unlocked A-Wall, I switched to stim after trying out grapple to begin with and haven't changed since.

I am too attached to being a speedy robot

If you're playing Bounty Hunt or Hardpoint as camping you're doing it wrong - especially if you're losing to campers

It's about using your movement, thinking where enemies (and/or NPCs are) and risk reward.

Objectives modes are much more fun than kill fests

Also who the hell switches away from Grapple? You lot are monsters. It's the best for rapid movement.

Grapple/Hover/Ticks/Volt/Archer/Electric Gas Grenade :datass:

But that's what objective modes are about, controlling space, and the best way to do that is hide in a safe spot. I haven't played a single bounty hunt match where someone didn't camp in the corner of the bank room. Yeah it's not hard to counter, but it's annoying to play against.

Also why does anyone think hover is good? It's atrocious. Hmm would I rather be a floating target in the middle of the sky or be almost silent and basically be immune to electric smoke.

Ticks are fun though.

But I'm not going to listen to someone who thinks hover is good :lol:

Bounty hunt is dumb, you can literally win by banking off of other people's hard work. It's a casual mode.

Bounty Hunt is shite.

Because it's good? And it can really muck with players who are expecting rapid motion and aiming ahead on that basis

Why would they be aiming ahead with a hitscan weapon.

Standing still on the ground is a bad idea so why would you think standing still in the air would be useful? It's only use is if you have trouble aiming in the air.

Making yourself not move while simultaneously being extremely visible is not good.

If people are having trouble hitting you when you use it you're playing bad players.

Grapple and ticks are alright, just not amazing. And electric smoke is really good for clearing out rooms, and AI.

Guys, this weekend the multiplayer is free for everyone!

So we should be able to get a bunch of people together for a private game, even if they don't own it
