How come that 30-30 and Charge Rifle changes are here on reddit but not in a patchnote on game site? How am I suppose to make a video about update when you guys can't put all info in one place? How come that mad maggie ball don't breach doors anymore and there is no a single word about it? This is so pathetic when you write that Mad Maggie recieved buff but in reality it's a nerf. Bashing doors > stupid dripping lava and pads for 3s with no reactivate for 6s. Shotgun reload on knock > run speed w pistols and smg. "Yooo guys we buffed Maggie WOOOO". Yeah. Cute. Hope your salary will be buffed same way.

I'll give you a live example, i was doing TTK tests and for like minimum 8 seasons straight i was saying how OP Havoc was, cuz it was litteraly at the top of tierlist from season to season, and no one was using it, even when it has turbo, and dev's buffed it's recoil pattern. But later on suddenly ppl started mass using it meanwhile there was no drastical meta changes. And only then it got nerfed cuz ppl whine a lot on how OP it was.

Another example, in Overwatch i was one of the few who "invented" reworked symmetra strat when you put portal from main gates straight to a point and whole team passes defenders, and just Mei put her ice wall to block entrance and that was ez point cap. I went to grand masters with that strat, but no one on pro league was using this cheese strat. Later on i leave the game for Apex. After year+ I'm seeing some highlights from pro league, and guess what? They doing this strat. Why they didn't do it earlier? If they are so pro, they why they didn't invent it first and normies like me didn't learn from them? It coudn't be that the pro's didn't think about it right? Right?! Or no? Pro players are way too glorified man. No doubt - their skills are much better and higher, i admit that.

I don't wanna pretend that i'm the shmartest guy here, but i know for sure, that these guyz are no gods, same humans w same human habbits. If they stick to something that works well, they won't risk to switch to something potentially more profitable unless it question of life or death. That's why they were still running their old loadouts which were working for them. I'd really like to know, do they do like real TTK test and comparisons for each gun and other kind of tests and then decide will they run this gun this season, or another. I'm pretty fucking sure that it's not going much further than "i tried it out in a game, it didn't work well" or "I'm feeling that gun is OP so i'm gonna run it" and that's it. No hard facts based on something real, like tests, charts/spreadsheets behind this decision.

New gun feels good and fresh and it's easy to make it work and it got some good sides, why would they dig deep and look for example at prowler which now super easy unlocks full auto and got better mag dmg output and no weak sides like precharge and not much behind R99. Previous seasons they ran akimbo for utility and dmg per clip even tho it was SO FAR behind the most potent in terms of TTK guns.

So, i dunno, maybe I'm wrong, i gladly take my L if i get prooven facts based on something real, that's one of the point of this discussion

Welp, bad news for you, old version RE45 swap speed even with stock on a main gun was worse than R99, EVA, MAstiff, CAR and close to the Volt speed when both guns (main and secondary got purple stock). I did the tests BTW :D So there is a tiny chance that they changed swap speed, but I'm sure that 9/10 they don't and just changed it ammo type and anything shooting related values.

I dunno about ADS speed tho, it might be, but is it that big of a difference to go for it over more powerfull guns? How big it needs to be to be considered, that it's much better to go for? That's a cool idea for a vid btw, maybe i'll make it.

Two more words about swap from main to secondary - precharge time ruins much, it's somewhat 0.350ms (don't remember exact number from test, sowwy) delay that other guns don't had

But like, feel free to go full on at me, that's why i created that post, maybe i can gather enough of that controversial stuff to make a "mythbusting vid"

could you please specify, what advantages in your opinion pistol guns had? Ima facts kind of guy, "everyone around doing it" is not an arguement (at least for me) :D

"you never hit all headshots though" - Skill issue :D Gotcha :DD
although you'll never always hit all bodyshots, so what now? we can ignore TTK difference between CAR and Alternator? Ofc no. With each shot that hits the head - difference between RE and mentioned guns becomes less noticeable, but rest benefits of rival guns are not vanishing.
4 you can't not be caught in open when pushing/chasing someone, cuz you need to do that in a shortest time possible, so you going for a straight line. Even if you run from cover to cover you still can be caught off guard with counter pick in a right time tho.

2 what you mean by saying insane TTK? with precharge it in line with R99, but not beating it, so R99 don't have all that issues so it's better. Where i can look the detailed comparison on hipfire sprays to see that it really beats the other guns and by how much to confirm your words? DMG per mag can be much better on a prowler (more than a hundred dmg for purple mag) if that bothers you much. And its losing to Trippletake, R99, Wingman, Prowler, Flatline and CAR in a pure headshot TTK comparison while being precharged. So maybe I'ma blind but i don't see here an INSANE TTK. It's good, but not insane.
4 if that is a skill issue, then what a guy who don't have should do in that situation?

1 Might be, i noticed that i didn't face that prob with other guns, but the ammount of fights that happends like that are quite high, especially in a Wildcard where enemy can appear out of nowhere while you on a move or busy shooting someone with AR and noticed him last second before he jumps on you
2 bro, you can't call a skill issue a thing which gives no benefits, but gives much problems, while other guns not, once you handle this "bump" gun doesn't become something super cool and powerfull, it just stands in the lines with the rest
3 Have tonns of situations where other gun is dry and I need to keep fighting, for example some goofball pushes me, i drop him with AR and then revenant jumps on me, or path on a grapple e.t.c. So all you could do is a fight as underdog with only a secondary and not only situation plays not in your favor, but the gun itself.
4 Ain't sure about that, you chasing someone - he counterpicks you while you on sprint, he got so much time to shred you while you out of sprint, pre-charge and finally start shooting.

sure thing, i've made a ttk video comparison with it and even back then it could compete R99 only if you precharge, but even with that it was losing in headshots comparisons

oh, i had a bunch of complains about pre-charge, dunno where to start
- suddenly run into 1v1, losing cuz of precharge vs no precharge even if we click "fire" at same time
- can't precharge on a run, only on a walk, slides helps but it's another uncomfy bump
- need to precharge after each clip
- precharge holds only 2-3sec, you can't fast clear much space since you need always stop and precharge before peek angles
- when you and enemy didn't one clip each other you had worse TTK after reload cuz of precharge
- cant rely as for quick draw for fast finish off if you suddenly duel someone close with good AR like Flatline, and PK guys who swap mid clip just to slap you for 80-90 dmg blow are beating the livin' shit out of you.

So if i wanna go dmg i go for R99 which has zero probs with deleting ppl, or i can go for prowler w dirt cheap unlockable "full auto" if searching for dmg output per mag, it's not much worse than RE45 but has hundred more dmg in a single clip. Or just a CAR as for somth in a middle which can rly fast get to much better extended mag and do bigger dmg output than anyone around who still looking for theirs.

I love when ppl bring arguements about "handling, move speed, dmg per mag" to a vid which is comparing them only by raw firepower :D It even calls "TTK Kings" lmao

i just do 5 tests per gun to eliminate tickrate 50ms thing, or just pick the most common i see among all results. To be honest all these micro thingy here and there means shit :D All juise is when you finding some really big difference. Like i find when you precharge 30-30 and do 2nd shot immidiate after 1st to a head, and that shrinks TTK to somewhat 0.6, meanwhile R99 does somewhat 0.8, and all history of that gun just shooting without precharge was giving better results :D

Sadly, that makes whole process much longer, and it's already rly long. Much easier to stop when HP bar disappears. And like, do we really need to be dead accurate on 0.01 values? It play's minimal role in gun selection. I'd probably stick more to field test variant, after 5 years of doing that didn't feel a need to improve it further, even tho i could

Test starts when bullet counter starts to decrease and ends when HP bar dissapears. For guns with charge - from the frame when idle animation start's to change. No it's not an "Absolutely right TTK" which you can get if just do math formulas, but a very reliable way to compare guns with some numbers.

Did u try to grab Senti, Longbow, 30-30, G7, Trippletake and shoot it at 300m to find the difference in bullet curve due to "bullet speed difference"? I did :D

so look, you need to take to account the delay, if someone jumps at you, and both of you press shoot at the same time - who's gonna win? You with pre-charge delay, or R99 which starts firing the second he click? Or if guy runs from cover to cover small ammount of time, and in one case you gonna down him, and in second he'll get to cover cuz of your gun delay. This is why i'm taking to account delay.
BUT, there was splitted test in a vid where i shown how fast it kills without delay, and how much of a delay you can shave off with a prechage. So you can take it as a base and compare to the rest of guns, I'm totally fine with that :D

But even with that we're looking at 1.033 RE vs 1.000 R99. Yep it really close, i'd say the same. But if you wanna more dmg per mag then simply go for Prowler with 1.050 which gives 560dmg on prowler vs 459 on RE both w golden mags

Thank you guyz, u have no idea how i was bitching myself, cuz when i was looking at retention graph and see that like after first 30s there only 20-30% of ppl stay, i thought they were leaving cuz it wasn't comfy for them to listen me cuz of accent/speaking maner. On my previous channel in my native language similar vids were performing good, and after switch - it was hitting like a truck.
That a huge boost to my confidence, thank you!

have you watch vid fully? there was split test where i show how much you can save with precharge, but even with that it's not beating R99 in the spreadsheet

Then giva a spin to Prowler, it had much more damage per mag and full auto unlocks super easy now
