As an addition of Megafun Freon, tactical shadows are your new best friend in terms of gameplay. Skrilax will be your assistant throughout this guide.







How do I become stealthy? (Click)

Moral of the story: Watch out for black people who might jump you.

Thats a pretty cool addition. Would it shadow the nanoblade? Just wondering.

Character visibility which was one of our concerns for quite a while reduced greatly. I'm against this. Just in case anybody cares.

Nope, since it glows. This goes for weapons with shaders.

I know, you guys lightened some characters and I just shit all over your work BW OLDZ is for the weekend only.

I think it should stay. Especially in the current conditions regarding update frequency. Made me actually consider my positioning (against the one hiding) instead of routinely jumping around avoiding bullets. And the flashlight on the MRS will finally get some use. Can we do a poll?

I agree with Aberiu. From my experience last night it made the best players better and the worst players worse - you're practically invisible in some places. Nice idea however.

So people wants to make BW Pro a camping fest ?
You know this is supposed to be a fast paced fighting game, not a hide and seek ....

Experienced players currently can do whatever the hell they want while simply walking around the target. Some strategy may appear in tryhard matches with in-team voice communication, but otherwise its just chaotic wandering with occasional aiming contests. While complex strategies are excluded, all we have is some common pattens of coordination known to every player that provide some competitive value for the less skilled (crowding, shield thawing, machine guns etc.). All of these let the smart but not-so-good-at-aiming player to win vs sharpshooters who put zero effort into tactics but can get away with it just by bursting the enemy down in any 1v1 situation. Look at, lets say, dk. He is clearly realising whats going on around him, making good decisions and overall knowing his strong sides. But all of it ends up neraly useless because as soon as any of the top players wanders by with an assault rifle, he gets clicked on and eliminated. Not much effort was put into the kill, just mechanical skills. Such fight is not fun for the averages and not challenging for the tops. Thats basically competitive farming against the top guns of the other team. Some extra space for tactical maneuvers can fix it.

And as long as it can be easily countered, its not going to be OP or excessively annoying. One MRS with flashlight in the group of 3 is as real as a healing tool in this group, and we can see a corresponding percent of players picking them for this purpose without extra reminders.

By the way, i got rekt every time i fought someone in the shadow yesterday, if that matters.

You guys won't believe it! I was hiding in a shadow, and [SAS]Lt.Hamish who was on the other team had his MRS-138 flashlight on, looking for me Tactics are slowly returning to BW
