They were able to interrogate a downed person. Seems pretty good from that perspective. Sneaking will probably be a bit harder though

The free weekend on PC is great and awful at the same time. The new players think that all modes are team deathmatch.

I lost countless rounds of Bomb mode where we had one point completely in control and instead of planting the damn defuser the idiot decided to go hunting for the enemy.
 
Yooooo Caveria looks badass

lots of people panicking/teamkilling each other hahahaha
 
Ended up picking this up on PC. Despite my frustration last night with not performing how I hoped I would, I still had a blast. Convinced a friend to jump in with me. Here. We. Go!
 
Despite my skepticism, these operators look pretty good.

Interrogation seems fine, and the main draw seems to be the silent steps.

Hoping the patch notes for the balance changes are good
 
One thing I hadn't realized is Caviera's sidearm is non-lethal, specifically to set up downed players you can interrogate, so it shouldn't be this thing you can only pull off once in a blue moon

Anyone having really bad matchmaking today?XB1 here, not sure why but casual is taking forever. Consistent estimates of 2-3 mins even.



Tuesday.
Yes terrible atm, was considering buying the game but 6-7 minutes waiting time is a bit annoying

Edit: enemy team declined message, another 7 minutes atleast of waiting. It was working fine this morning.

Checked reddit. XB1 servers are down. They went down about thirty mins ago, got them back up, now they're down again.

To be fair, this rarely happens... but it sucks it's happening on free weekend with double XP.

Trying to play now and it's saying my estimated wait time is 15:00 for casual.

Ranked is working fine.

If anyone has a VPN with a UK-based server, the PC version of the game is $10, while the Gold Edition comes out to about $19 on the UK Ubishop! $10 would be the cheapest the base game has ever been. I bought the Gold Edition myself essentially as a cheap season pass.

Anyone have Bright House in Florida getting this 2-0x0000C003 error? Seems to be affecting only us. Cannot play the game at all. Did port forwarding with ISP, Ubisoft Support, etc. Annoying.

Damn, I guess I missed this.

edit: Actually got it to work. Wouldn't work with Paypal but worked fine with my CC. Price only shows up in the basket too.

People that angrily message you in game wondering why you're on the other side of Kanal (I picked off 3 enemies from the window) and then blaming the L on me because my 4 teammates somehow got overran by 2 people.

Logic. Lol.

I get this every now and then. Sometimes it's amusing, others it's just tiring.

Have they changed the way Casual matchmaking works? I seem to encounter far more people of my rank/level than I used to some three weeks ago with only two matches this weekend being the exception.

It's hilarious. Him and his buddy kept spamming me the whole game so I made it my duty to fuck up the game for them. I was petty. Oh well. Just leave me alone I'm clearly doing fine lol.

I'm only 24 on Xbox and I encounter players 1-100. Maybe it's just your luck.

words cannot describe how excited I am for this update. cool-sounding operators, improvements to killcam, FUCKING BATTLEYE etc. siege continues to be my favorite game by far this generation

I would give up all that if they would just fix the hostage rescue. Damn thing is still broken. Played it on Xbox One during the free weekend never had an issue with it. Go back to PS4 and the damn thing is still broken.

Was thinking about this the other day how I haven't been hearing much about it. I don't have the energy for learning to play a shooter like I did with CS/COD4...but... downloading to at least give it a shot, £15 seems real cheap.

Huh? Where's that, all I see is £14.97.

The issue I always have with hostage rescue is. When you pick up the hostage, he or she will just run in place. And you can no longer interact with them. The only way to end the round is to either kill the hostage or have everyone else die.

These semi automatic shotties (saiga is an exception) are dumb. No reason for the SAS/GIGN pump action to be so much weaker than the M10, 90 (they got nerfed but it's apparent they keep fucking up these faster firing shotguns) & the 12.

Fix this shit Ubi.

I feel like I'm so bad at defense, during preparation phase. I have no idea what to do or how to be most efficient but I guess that comes with time. I'm covering walls, putting up traps and the likes though. I really have to learn these maps.

Which were the two DLC maps?

Bought this game yesterday for £7.49 off of uplay. It seems really cool, reminds me of Counterstrike in that it's very twitchy and I am bad at it.

Will continue playing!

Reinforcing the walls and settings traps is good but make sure you don't block possible paths (destroy the walls/hatches if you can) between objectives in Bomb.

Border and Yacht(?) we're the maps iirc
