Luminesca 102 Posted July 10, 2018 (edited) So I just got done playing a mission in citadel. Mission which started in variety of guns on both sides ended in 4 HVRs and 1 obeya 1aces due to long range points. I'm an oldie ( 2012-2016 mainly) and I don't remember the HVR meta being so dominating. I tried to play manic or ntec, but eventually was forced to use HVR. If this mission was 2015 it wouldn't have ended in qs peeing contest. So what happened? Is it the russian majority who forces us to this meta, or something else?

Is it the russian majority who forces us to this meta, or something else? the gradual nerfing of all the direct competitors to the hvr has brought us to this point back in obt trying to kill an obeya with an hvr was suicide - i dont think we should get back to that specific balance, but currently theres really nothing that threatens an hvr much Edited July 10, 2018 by BXNNXD typo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nanometic 265 Posted July 10, 2018 If you were playing solo I understand, if you were in a team, simply stepping back for a moment, regrouping and coordinating will usually work. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quite a few people find this difficult to do. It's surprisingly easy to get into the trap of rushing the same location over and over again with little to no plan and hoping that reflexes and skill compensates for the lack of any tactics.

And in 2015 Aspasia would've qs'ed the shit out of you so it's not an excuse. Back in 2015 aspacia would be using CSGs and Scout Jumpshot (much like everyone). Which, honestly was a far more fun time than the hvr snooze fest it comes to nowadays. Edited July 12, 2018 by Shini Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
