Along the same lines they added some depth behind the cliffs that overlook estates on the edge of the map. That had become a choke point where two players could pretty easily control a huge amount of territory. Now you have to worry about the area behind you. Haven’t used the ARAV yet. An armored vehicle with a turret seems like it could be way overpowered.
I don't think it's on Xbox yet so I haven't had a chance to try it but I've seen it on streams and the gun can overheat, I think it can break completely if you try to use it while it's overheated and the spray is pretty inaccurate. Seems they did a good job of introducing that without it being able to be abused.
For all the cool things they did with this update, they really really fucked up the sound. It's 10x worse than it was, and it was already pretty bad. I can't hear people 90% of the time even at the beginning of the game (I can land on the boat,see people right by me but not hear them running), shots sound like they're close but really they're half a map away (or vice versa).
Also, if anyone has trouble with constant connection interrupted, I read somewhere that if you equip a non player created emblem and leave your clan tag blank it will fix it. Was getting 5-10 disconnects in blackout a night, and I haven't gotten one in the 3 or 4 days since I changed those.
Core seems to be nothing but dudes spamming SMGs, HC can be won running around with pistols. Game needs some serious balancing.
I find way more balance in core than hc. Especially in kill confirm and domination. I pretty much stick to kc because it takes away from people camping.
Played one game where everyone who killed me with an SMG kept aiming down sites real quick. Like spamming the button.
Anybody play any blackout with the new update? Trying to decide if it's worth coming back. A game being decided by who has lvl 3 and concussions got old fast, especially when you're max level with nothing to play for.
Been pretty stale lately to watch the killcam and it is some guy jumping around looking for you with a concussion pulled. Glad they’re getting a rework along with clusters and armor. Really looking forward to seeing how the game plays when people don’t relu on equipment and armor as much.
Hot pursuit is pretty fun. Love how they incorporated Buried in it. If they made just a Buried game it would be all I ever played
I prestige’s to level 2. This game is decent. I like the old maps. I’m trying to play blackout to get the nomad outfit. I feel it may be impossible.
