  1. This series has been re-created to facilitate the gameplay, metagame, and strategy discussion that often gets buried or lost in the abundance of others posts that flood this sub. The goal of this series is to not only give new players a primer on an operator, but also for midlevel or competitive players a chance to share the knowledge that they have accrued in their experiences and maybe let people know something that they did not know before. Today's operator is Tachanka. Iceycat's Tachanka Guide Tachanka Wiki The community has outlined a couple of things that they want to converse about with every operator, but feel free to branch out should you feel a piece of information warrants its own discussion. The operator’s primary or ideal role in the team. (DISCLAIMER: Operators can be played in a number of different ways. There is no single way to play an operator. This is probably the most subjective segment of the discussion series, and hopefully will spark debates or help us learn things we did not know before.) The operator’s gadget and how it will help the team achieve its goals. Please share any tidbits you may know to help expand discussion. The operator’s loadout, and how best to optimize it. This includes primaries, secondaries, and secondary gadgets. What maps and game modes does this operator do well on? What maps and game modes does this operator struggle with? What teammates synergize well with this operator? What opposing operators check or counter this operator? What strategies have you adopted while playing this operator? What is something that a new player should know when playing this operator, or what is something you know that would help a veteran player take that next step? What is your overall opinion of this operator? Where would you rank them among the other operators?
  2. Kanal is spawn killer central. Be very careful approaching the building and check every window. My favorite spawn is construction because you can take out both construction and sailboat cameras, but you can also peek from underneath the tractor and check for defending window peekers. Kanal is a roamer's dream. You can almost guarantee there will be a defender in the opposite building looking to pick off rappelers. This is one of the few maps where Glaz does well. Providing overwatch and window pressure on Server room is a huge threat. Boat room is one of the hardest objectives to attack. (Maybe Laundry on Oregon is harder?) Thermite is absolutely necessary for this offense because you don't want to be tunneled down Death Alley, nor do you want to enter from the northern door. Every route that doesn't involve Thermite makes you bottleneck in a predictable fashion, and you will be at a huge disadvantage. If you don't have Thermite or he dies from snipers from the eastern building, try blowing out the floor in coast guard. Buck and Sledge is especially good for attacking Boats since they can open up holes to drop grenades through (if it isn't Hostage.) To help on the boat room, rappel over the outside boat parked down from the death alley door and pop out the space over the reinforced doors. You can get some cheeky kills from there, but watch your left side for roamers coming from the other buildings garage.

  3. This new series has been created to facilitate the gameplay, metagame, and strategy discussion that often gets buried or lost in the abundance of others posts that flood this sub. The goal of this series is to not only give new players a primer on a specific map, but also for midlevel or competitive players a chance to share the knowledge that they have accrued in their experiences and maybe let people know something that they did not know before. Today's map is Kanal. Iceycat's Tips & Tricks Kanal Guide Kanal Wiki The community has outlined a couple of things that they want to converse about with every map, but feel free to branch out should you feel a piece of information warrants its own discussion. Overall map and team strategies for attacking & defending. Secret areas, kill holes, and other techniques that can be used on the map. The best operators to use on the map and different abilities that work & don't work with this map. What strategies have you adopted while playing this map? What is something that a new player should know when playing this map, or what is something you know that would help a veteran player take that next step? Does the map offer an unfair advantages to attackers or defenders? Will Epi ever give us a release date for Bartlett University? What is your overall opinion of this map?
  4. Chargeback time.
  5. I already have PES though? Right Phil?
  6. Isn't forza a total sim? I believe you asked about an arcade'y racer and NFS or DriveClub would be wonderful for you.
  7. It's like the Apple method. yearly release with a S version in the middle. Haha
  8. Steve, you work at the same pace that would put a Christmas Elf to shame. How are you this efficient?
  9. PS4 Pro is the Microsoft equivalent to the Scorpio. Both can output to 4k but not play games at that resolution.
  10. The fun part is the game has to be on, active on your phone. This is a cash grab.
  11. Who wants to be my partner?!
  12. Most likely I'll be picking it up about a month after release to see how it all plays out. I'm ready for diddums to say "this is the greatest game ever made" then 3 weeks later, "it's shite"
  13. It will, even the PS4 Pro has the capability to output at 4K but cannot actually run those games. I'll find that article. Most games will be running 1080p and 90hz
  14. http://www.cnet.com/products/apple-iphone-7/preview/ Size and feel: The iPhone 7 feels pretty much the same as the iPhone 6S, with the same 4.7-inch screen. Apple says the "HD Retina display" is 25 percent brighter than last year's model. It includes the pressure-sensitive 3D Touch layer that buzzes slightly when you press and hold the screen. Static home button: The home button is now solid state, which means you can't physically press or click it in -- kind of like the Motorola Moto Z and OnePlus 3. It's pressure-sensitive, including "taptic feedback", which just means that apps can give you three levels of pressure and haptic feedback, like a light or strong buzz. It doesn't feel like a button and definitely takes getting used to, but so far it seems to get the job done. Water-resistant: Yes, Virginia, it will be water-resistant (IP67), like several Samsung and Sony phones (IP68). No headphone jack: It's gone. Really. Instead, Apple's new EarPods headphones will connect through the Lightning connector port; you'll also get an adaptor in the box. Apple's also pushing new, funky-looking AirPods headset connects wirelessly through auto-pairing. These worked pretty well, actually, and sounded pretty good in a the loud demo room. AirPods retail for 160.00 USD New camera: The iPhone 7 keeps the 12-megapixel camera, but adds a larger aperture and -- this is a big deal -- optical image stabilization that keeps images steadier. We do notice that the camera sticks out more from the back. (The iPhone 7 Plus gets a second, 56mm telephoto lens on the back that works like a built-in zoom feature. Phones like the LG V20, Huawei P9 and Huawei Honor 8 have two cameras, too.) We have lots more detail below. New front-facing camera: The iPhone 7's 7-megapixel front-facing camera leaps up from 5 megapixels on the iPhone 6S, and includes auto-image stabilization (but not optical image stabilization). Stereo speakers: A second speaker joins the iPhone to give you stereo speakers. There's now one at the bottom and one at the top (this is brand-new for Apple). Longer battery life: Greater battery capacity for longer battery life. Apple estimates 12 hours of LTE browsing (the iPhone 7 Plus should clock about two more hours). Apple notoriously never tells us what the capacity is. Faster processor: The iPhone 7's new A10 Fusion chip is a 64-bit, quad-core processor that Apple says is 40 percent faster than last year's A9 processor. Two cores are high-performance, the other two are "high efficiency," which means they'll conserve battery while handling tasks. Take-away message: deeper visual graphics, especially with gaming. (Did we mention that Super Mario is coming to the iPhone?!?!) More storage: 32GB, 128GB, 256GB capacities Colors: Glossy jet black, matte black, gold, silver, rose gold (P.S.: New jet black is only available in 128GB and 256GB models.)
  15. I am in the same boat with you Phil, I don't see myself buying another console. When PS4 phases out I will be well on my way to pc master race
  16. I will link a dropbox with the raw images that you can scale to whichever size you want. If you want a few other assets like icons, or whatever let me know.
  17. The most important attacking operator. Try to play it as safe as possible until you get all of your charges down, and stay in cover until all spawn peekers are dealt with. Once all of your charges are down and detonated, his rifle is extremely good, despite its recoil pattern. You can play as aggressively as you want at this point, since your main job is done. Thermite is just plain essential. Maybe even too essential. There is literally no other operator that can interact with reinforced walls. If you don't take him or he dies you can lose the match. Main problem I frequently see is Thermites rushing toward the building and getting capped by a peeker. Gotta survive to place your charge. Hang back, watch your approach; 75% of the time, if Thermite gets peeked, the Defenders won Here are weapon and gadget picks from various pro players: Slashug: 556xi (Acog), USG, Stun Grenade BPandaa.ENX: 556xi (Acog), USG, Stun Grenade gBots.LioN: 556xi (Acog), USG, Stun Grenade ShooTeX: 556xi (Acog), M45, Stun Grenade dalycan.Fe: 556xi (Acog), M45, Stun Grenade TOPKEK.MiL: 556xi (Acog), USG, Breach Charge ePunks.Undead: 556xi (Holo), USG, Stun Grenade REAPZz.unK: 556xi (Reflex), M45, Stun Grenade

  19. It's nice of them to give credit to your channel.
  20. Hello and welcome. Feel free to add me on PSN, PlasticGaming.
  21. The same thing happened with Pokemon GO, being that you simply did not get what was advertised. They didn't have a leg to stand on for a rebuttal.
  22. Not a sport is the main reason I would reckon. Spike TV and TBS have broadcasted CS:GO recently in the states, and ESPN 3 has been doing League of Legends.
  23. Screw it Dave, the mobile version website works fine.
  24. 20.00 game, sure. Not at a Triple A price.
