UPDATE NOTE WTF 1/27/16

(Yeezus) #1

so im recently i took a 5 day break, upon returning i also changed my sensitivity BUT for some reason my jumpshots arent landing where i aim, my main guy is vassili, im not a bad sniper and i know how to hit shots, but i cant land an accurate jumpshot. there was a downed enemy, i calculated where my crosshair would go if i wanted to jumpshot and finish the guy, upon executing my shots were not landing. somebody help me out, am i super bad or was there an update that swayed my aim when i jump?

Most recent update added RNG to ads and scoped jump shots, overall reaction is pretty bad, so just tough it out for a little while till it gets reverted.

This is a real Signature.

^That.

Hopefully they change it back as there was no need for it, specifically with Snipers or really any gun other than shotguns. People weren’t liking the jumping shotgun tactics everyone uses so they nerfed it. However, they also decided to mess up jump shots with snipers and I think other weapons, which wasn’t needed at all.

OMG, THANKS GOD, I THOUGHT I BECAME RETARDED AND COULDN’T DO JUMP SHOTS ANYMORE. I was jumpshotting around on a wall and noticed that the shot went everywhere. I though my hand was twitching like a retard but apparently they freakin nerfed it. T_T That caused so many deaths for me.

Yup, they did this once and it didn’t go over well. I like the change for regular guns but I don’t like the change for sniper rifles. It has to be an oversight because they tried to nerf snipers once like this and it made them awful and the game worse and they reverted it. I can’t imagine that Exedore tried to put it in again. So I’d wager it was an oversight but who knows if it will get fixed anytime soon.

I did everything there is to do in this game, except bolt-action sniping. I even played Rhino for the last couple days, he’s actually kinda in certain (pub) situations. Today I was going to buy Vassili, the last merc I don’t own. And he got a nerf. FML.

Enjoy your new overlord RNG, we’ll be getting random crits next because luck should be the deciding factor in a fight.

(Backuplight) #9

New? It’s been so successful in loadouts, I’m surprised we haven’t had more RNG elsewhere sooner! Maybe our squads should be randomly picked for us each game too. I can’t really comment on how significant this is to sniping since I’ve not played since the patch dropped, but sounds like it’s going down super well.

(nokiII) #10

There actually is an option to randomize your squad. Don’t know why anyone would want to use it though.

(Sterling) #11

I think I’ve heard somewhere that the changes are being balanced around comp players’ opinions. I wonder how bad someone has to be to want them to nerf jump sniping that much.

(LifeupOmega) #12

Literally no one in comp had a problem with Vas when I was talking with teams. Sparks and Redeye were always the issue post-instagib.

(Maverix) #13

They should also add random gun jams and bullet duds.

(LifeupOmega) #14

What a good idea, I’ll pass it along. We need more luck, rng, and realism in our games.

Next patch snipers will only be allowed one kill a match, due to the average set up time of sniping in real life.

Not to mention randomly tripping and falling over debris and having the sun reflect off of things so at times you can’t see.

I’m already getting seemingly randomly stuck on various map elements, I think that part is already done.

(darlingClaymore) #17

good we don’t need that csgo #!@$ in here, we want twitch reactions, not bunnies.

My stark often jams already

(LifeupOmega) #19

CS has twitch reactions though. A lot of fights come down to a few bullets shot with crazy reaction times.

I can’t recall the last time CS had bunnyhopping either, wasn’t that back in the old one?

(N8o) #20

This. SoloQ never had any issue with Vas until people started using the PDP and then switching over to RedEye. Did you see fE and Zuppehw? It was a massacre.
