Love the new changes. Got back into the game 2 weeks ago. Not a fan of the new map either but the other changes are great. Love the impact grenades, they're a game changer for flanking as a defender. I didn't know about the Doc changes, I'll have to give him a try!
I love the changes especially the Blackbeard nerf. The one change I didn't like is they messed with thermite. He was so awesome before blowing down any wall but now only has two measly charges. Makes him an awkward player now
I don't know if anyone else caught the pro-league stream on the weekend but 5.0 is shaping up to be a massive patch.
- Two new Japanese operators Hibana (Atk) and Echo (Def).
- New map, Skyscraper. (patch 5.2 will also be introducing a reworked Bartlett University from the final Situation)
- New customization options. There will now be some different operator uniforms you can get.
- Caliber-based destruction. Firearms will now make different sized impact holes based on the weapon used.
Won't bother with the season pass this year but I have to give this game a lot of credit. I've found myself getting bored of games easier and easier lately and this is the one game I keep coming back too. So fun
I got the season pass for the first year but the only new operators I liked were Buck, Frost and Blackbeard. I'll wait and see how the new ones are first this time around
Neither of the Brazilians or Japanese operators interested me one bit. The two Seals are pretty good, and I liked the Canadians. So not bad I guess, but I'll just wait and see first this time instead of paying money for them. Have a lot of renown saved up anyway
Buck is probably my favourite of the non-original operators, ever since they dialed back the recoil on his C8.
New ops look good. Not sure I'll use Jackal much myself but he should be helpful in tracking down Caveira. Mira is potentially much more game changing. If her window gadget-thing is one way bullet resistant it will be very useful in protecting common breaching walls. Should aid in Bandit tricking walls as well.
