Redeye Update- Patch Notes

(Gaspoline) #21

will I ever be able to bedazzle my redeye’s grandeur again? I miss that

And competitive matches missions not removed. Why not?

What’s actually in the patch is really good imo.

(Gi.Am) #23

Gotta have to take everything back, I said about Arty. SD was so bright to limit targeting per strike so no accidental artillery. Only bad thing about it.
Is that you really gotta know where the redtape is/ hitting the spot you want on the first try, targeting is so fast, no refunds.

Dreiss aswell might be coming from a Grandeur but firerate seems to be ok. More important the ROF decrease + accuracy buff means it has reasonable spread increase. No more 4 shots + going all over the place.

Best news of the patch

(x3H) #25

The Grandeur SR or “M14” is so sexy. Kukri too. Played RedEye for 6 matches.
Arty buff was needed, good job. But I can’t see why the changes to the Dreiss?
Anyway, please. Do something about Phantom, he’s still…unplayable and useless. :’(

Good change. :smiley:

(ttownjoe) #27

well here is my take…

  1. Arty reduction to targeting time was much needed thankyou will give him a try again. And a small buff in damage is good but an increase in total damage via duration of effect would have been better. (Buff) Score +2
    2)Reduction to rate of fire on pdp was needed, and penetration. However, snipers in general need much more recoil not less. Neutral Score -1
  2. Dreiss ROF was already too slow and is now slower -2, accuracy increase was strongly needed +1, small nerf. Score -1

•Fixed bug where weapons would sometimes not fire if the button was pressed a fraction before the weapon raise animation completed HUGE improvement thanks.
Mechanics, engineers Huge buff

Can someone explain to me why you would want to pick a Dreiss AR over the M4-10 BR now?
Or even over the Stark AR or BR-16? Every other gun mentioned outperforms it in both body and head DPS

People say that sights are weird.

Does this mean that there is elevator music in that elevator?

(Backuplight) #31

I completely forgot to check, I really hope so haha. The “ding” as the doors open will be satisfying enough if you’re waiting outside with a shotgun.

(fuzzel) #32

gg sd… dreiss AR is now unplayable…you made it…

(x3H) #33

To be honest, I have no idea why they did this change, but I have to disagree with you, tried this weapon, and it somehow looks the same, why unplayable? Maybe if you explain… :smiley:

M4, br15, and stark (with drilled) are the 3 best primaries in the game, dreiss keeps getting nerfed for some unknown reason, it was already one of the worst primaries and they nerfed it again, it is a mystery.

The dreiss was nerfed and buffed at the same time. I think the buff outweighs the nerf personally.

Battle Rifles are now useless. Awesome.

(nudels) #37

Good, less phantoms on the servers = better game play… He´s still annoying and pretty much as useless as the sniper character Vassili. :wink:

(Aerican) #38

I would like to note a bug where RedEye’s E abilty, his heat seeking sight, sometimes becomes unusable. Happens randomly after respawning. Fixes itself after death. Can happen multiple times within a game.

I don’t think the bug is exclusive to RedEye, as I had the same problem with phantom’s Q before RedEye came out.
