    that ADS hasto be super slow. if it's not great long range anyways then use it for mid-short and replace the grip tape with a tac laser or no stock (no stock would = nickmerc m4)

    Looks like the pros are running a Bruen with a SMG secondary. I need to switch things up from the grau.

    I started running a Fal as a secondary and the ttk from around 20 meters in is pretty ridiculous if you hit your shots

    Spent the past 3 days working for the bruen. Hope they don’t nerf it.

    I just can’t bring myself to do it. Pretty happy when I pick one up though.

    Bruen is just ridiculous. I was using an M13 primarily. Trying to switch up from the Grau/M4 meta stuff but damn the bruen is too good not to run. It just deletes people.

    I wish they would just buff other guns instead of nerfing guns.

    I have mine maxed out but I haven’t even unlocked it yet. Snagged The Glitch blueprint and was running that before it became meta. I just don’t get to play enough to waste my time trying to get smoke kills with an LMG to unlock it. Think I’ve accidentally gotten 7 of the 15.

    Gotten ~8 solo wins in the past week. Kinda liking that game mode more and more since you can change it up and use guns that aren't that practical in Trios/Quads, ie - Fennec.
    Short Range FAL is a beast in solos. mono/13"barrell/tac laser/stippled tape/no stock. Favorite gun to clear stair well buildings and residential houses. Anything under ~30m

    I used the FAL when the game dropped. Thought it had potential but wasn’t consistent. Ever since the buff “chef’s kiss”. I have 2 CQB FALs, one like yours for multiplayer but I swap out the tac laser for slight of hand. Dropped 92 kills on Shipment and 3 off my first nuke on Shoothouse (got cocky with my drop shots)

    What’s your solo strat? Play it slow? Land hot and try to get load out?

    I’ve been running a bruen/mp5 loadout.

    PKM is superior to Bruen in every aspect besides reload speed.
    It is known.

    Probably only land in 4 areas based on which one is in the middle of the 1st circle and if it has a buy station, prioritized in this order:
    1) Quarry
    2) "Hot Town" - Business park NW of stadium and below and TV that has warehouse/pub/ihop/bank
    3) Lumber
    4) Rectangle residential part of Promenade

    Land somewhere that has enough loot for your to hold down with decent weapons if 3-4 people drop by you
    Q - the two rows of long buildings connected by the 3rd floor bridge. land on the end of one building and get to the 3rd floor
    HT - Bank or Warehouse
    L - Same building as Q but there's only 1 of them in Lumber
    Prom - 2 story office building with the room in each corner / mid stairwell

    Grab a bounty/flag/scav if you see them but don't pursue if you have to leave the area. All 4 places you can loot and get over $10K. Loadout + Ghost. UAV if possible.

    Main strategy post-loadout is running as little as possible outside of buildings. Hopefully the circle is good to you and the area you picked is still okay in late circles. If the next circle is something you have to run to, go immediately when you see you're gonna have to move, pick a building near the dead center and clear it in stealth mode. Might try to grab 1-2 flags during circles 3-4. But mostly it's just having the patience to not abandon an area you've got control of out of boredom. At least a half dozen solo wins started and ended and Quarry and I never left my main buildings except to buy/flag nearby. Circles 2-3 sometimes you may have to sit and wait to see where the next circle goes for 2-3 minutes so be it.

    TL;DR - jump hot into an area you know well and get a loadout. Lay low and pick off randoms (maybe poach your buy station esp if it's the only one in the area) until there's ~25 people left. Try to get a spot in the middle of circle 5/6.

    Normally end up with 4-6 kills before the end of circle 1 and finish with 8-15 depending on where I place. Probably only average ~3 kills a game total for circles 3-5

    I got 5 kills, then started messing with a sniper in a radio tower. I then was pinched between 2 snipers. Hung around too long and got caught in the storm. Would have survived if these assholes could climb 3 foot rocks.

    Trios and quads generally have a lot of action throughout so I can play slow at the end of those without getting antsy. It seems like I look up on the second circle and there are 30 people left in solos with almost the whole map left. Then I start running somewhere and get shot by someone I never saw. It’s a real bummer.

    stadium is aight. good to open it up just to keep people from winning by getting onto the roof and everyone else dying in gas.
    mini-warzone is fun as shit if you need a quick game that's more fast paced. imagine most people ITT like that mode since it's about as anti-campy as you get

    new blue/purple/orange guns I found in ~3 games this afternoon were pretty badass and much better than last season

    went twice yesterday. 1st was a drop in the middle tents and there were ~30 people and it was about what you'd expect with a field full of people. 2nd was in the 2nd-3rd circle and there was no loot anywhere + maybe 5 snipers camping in random upper deck/roof spots. It's pretty much what everyone hates about downtown but much worse

    The Mainboard regiment still currently at 4 people. We do get a 2x XP happy hour every evening if you want to join. You do have the choice whether to take T-MB clan tag or keep your own from before, and you can switch them back and forth. So really no reason not to send me a DM with your Xbox gamertag/activision ID and I'll add you to it. When you send the DM just clarify if it's your gamertag or Activision ID, it's easier for me if you send your xbox gamertag but either way works fine.

    Handcuffed ill probably be on later tonight, will try and connect with you after I get the kids down.

    Side note does anyone know if they merged the MP7? Feels a lot less affective after the update.

    TLAU whats the SMG of choice right now?

    Bruen / MP5 is still meta. I’ll run origin shotty in trios or quads with people I know for really close range.

    I actually replaced my Bruen with the Ram and I really really really like it. The recoil pattern I guess just fits me better. Probably done with Bruen for now.

    I wish I was better with the Kar. It’s such a satisfying feeling when you connect with someone’s dome with It. I’m just not a good sniper, unfortunately.

    I made a similar post in the PC thread but I just switched from Xbox to PC for warzone and I play a little almost every night so let me know if anyone wants to squad up this week.

    I use the FAL as an SMG with an AR/LMG as primary in trios/quads
    I use the FAL as long range with MP5 as secondary in solos/duos
    And I actually used the long range and short range FAL the other day together (2nd loadout) in a Quad for fun and fucked people up with it.

    MP5 vs. FALsmg is just a preference and whether or not you hit upperchest/head shots. Also probably if you're using triggers for shooting then smgFAL is a little tougher. You can fire it real damn fast with mouse or using right bumper to fire.

    Bruen nerfed (TBD how much, it was so overpowered it might still be meta), FAL nerfed as short range class, buffed at long range.

    Holger buffed, I may actually try and make that into a class. It’s been buffed twice now.

    Also, sadly a .7 k/d checking in. Was .9 until around the time the Bruen buzz saw came about. Probably about 20 wins. Play mostly duos.

    Bruens damage drop off was increased at range but it’s still a beam mid range. Most still running Bruen/MP5. You just can’t laser kids across map anymore.
