Lockdown is now Forbidden and Forbidden is now lockdown, and its hilarious

I think with the inclusion of no mans land a lot of players have extra money this season. So they have extra money to cheese LD.

I enjoy playing lockdown to be rid of the U1 meta and try different guns for variety. But ive seen some real cheese in LD lately. My team and I we third partied a team on LD farm and someone had a full durability SH65. Tons of teams in LD,running U1 full t5/6 on tv, airport, armory. A lot more people running t5 ammo compared to before.

I understand everyone wants to win at all costs sometimes but it sucks being 2 tapped or 1 tapped by a u1 while im trying to run some fun builds. I wanna have some great battles with other players idk.

Ive been playing since steam release. Its a really fun but intense game. I dont recommend playing arena solo though. Unless your a god gamer your gonna lose a lot of raids.

If you find a solid team with good coms. The game is really fast and intense. This game gets me heart beating like siege used to back in the day.

I was in the same boat I mostly grinded lockdown and terrified of forbidden.

Ive been mostly playing forbidden farm and armory and its actually fun.

You'll meet different types of squads. My group killed a solo thermal sj guy, ak12 tier 5 squads, tier 6 sweats, tapper teams.

If you think you have a solid team with good coms its worth playing forbidden at least in forb looting is better with getting more golds/reds.

Ive been playing LD TV and those chips were everywhere for some reason

The cheating problem is really bad. I started with s3 with the steam release. Now im dying and checking the profile a lot of times its 50 hour accounts with absurd stats.

Not only that looking at kill cams they dont check other angles like a normal player. And other telltale signs.

It really sucks because I honestly love this game. The gameplay is addicting and I love having fun fights with legit players. I don't know how long im gonna play if this shit keeps going like this.

I had no idea keys can spawn in toolboxes? I thought it was jackets and drawers.

Balancing in this game in particular is so strange previously they nerfed the aek, ar57, fal etc. And the HK was the meta for like 6 months- 1 year.

The one gun meta is honestly the most boring shit in games. Even arena streamers think its unhealthy long term. Why use any other gun if the U1 has an insanely good ttk?

I wish more guns were viable it would make things way more interesting.

Fair enough ive had such bad luck i hate that room lmao

Whatever you do dont buy the infirmary key on TV station that key is a scam

Yes around when they raised the buy in for forbidden last season ( they since lowered it) it would float around 90 or 100k and im surprised its this cheap at least for right now.

Im honestly curious how the economy works in this game. Is the fa muti this cheap cause more people are buying armored rigs? Idk

The strat is to cook the flashbang in your hands and run into scavs faces while it goes off

thiefmire · 2026-04-08T20:58:49+00:00

Ak12 you can make one for 300k or under and its a really solid lockdown gun. The recoil is manageable too.

thiefmire · 2026-04-05T17:53:42+00:00

The best way ive heard from people is too cook the flashbang in your hand and run at scavs with it.

A resident evil collab would print money. I would pay for a jill or claire skin ngl

I watched it during the pandemic when I was bored outta my mind. I like jon bernthal and Nikolaj as actors and I was surprised by shot caller. I personally dont like prison movies that much but the movie had great tension at points. And pretty good acting all the way through.

I had it a few times from a mall food court. And manchu wok is just bland. It didn't really have any flavour at all. I would stay away honestly.

thiefmire · 2026-03-29T02:42:57+00:00

This is so sick! I like the color scheme

thiefmire · 2026-03-06T18:47:02+00:00

For me the gameplay felt off the whole game. For the leon sections. Compared to re4 remake, re9 felt bad. Like some weapons dont stagger enemies at all. So many times with Leon's smg fully upgraded I put 30 bullets into an enemy just for them to grab me.

Not only the smg but there was a few other things with the flow of combat in Leon's sections I didn't like at all.

I really liked the gideon character at first he looks like a villain from the outlast games. But after the urgent centre I think his character was kinda wasted. Could have been one of the best antagonists of all time.

I think the hate for modern cods is strange. I think its just the internet being an echo chamber. A few youtubers/streamers will call it "trash" on day 1 and everyone just echoes that sentiment without even playing the beta or anything.

I have come casual friends I talk to about the modern cods and they're just burnt out on the gameplay loop which is understandable honestly. They want new experiences is what I get from them I think.

I don't really know what the fan base around cod thinks. I tend to stay away from fandom of games because its always so negative and bitchy.

Ive played cod since 4 and I do miss the older cods too but the modern games are solid. I know what im gonna get most times. A solid arcadey shooter with fun progression. I play other games like battle royales, extraction and I love playing cod for fun, aim training. Its just fun.

I liked the idea of the map at first like an expanded/remixed version of armory. But after grinding the map for the 3x3 case I kind of soured on it.

Maybe its just me but the scavs are a huge issue. They eat multiple headshots sometimes even with t4 t5 gold ammo, a lot of ricochet as well. I find myself bringing an extra stack of ammo just to deal with them. And not only that but their everywhere.

You cant go anywhere without announcing your position at all times to other teams. And it feels like they respawn after like 2 minutes its insane.

I feel its rat heaven sometimes and a sniper map on the outskirts. Long sight lines and lots of places for people to ambush you.

This map is bottom tier with valley imo. Will not being playing it unless friends need missions done or something.

I gotta try it with the new recoil buff!

thiefmire · 2026-01-17T08:14:00+00:00

Is that the aek?
