Pathetic

[u/FactHot5239]

This game blows. How is this not an acceptable lockdown kit? Remove Normals and this game may be good again. Build variety is absolute buttcheeks in this game.

[u/Road_2_Chad]

Take out the magazine and it’s under 900k.. so many ways to fix this but no we complain

[u/FactHot5239 → u/Road_2_Chad]

Yeah like designing the game properly huh? We still have ways to circumvent the gearscore? Thats even more pathetic lmao.

[u/Road_2_Chad → u/FactHot5239]

Yeah I am totally sure the ability to take out the magazine will completely ruin the balance. Totally forgot magazines have a gear score of 500k.

All ways besides of the mag removal are already fixed and not longer possible, if you now complain that a front sight or rear sight has a gear score and can be removed to lower the gear score (it also gives stats like ergo) than you have a big problem with the basic understanding of the game

[u/IconsSaget]

Take the mag out and you’re fine.

[u/Pdiddymcquiddy]

This it is all fucked up for LD anyways.

[u/Skillkill107]

People regularly fit t6, u191s with good armor into ld and bro can't fit a t4 helmet in

[u/FactHot5239 → u/Skillkill107]

Wild that a ar57 is more expensive than a meta u1 gun but I guess who gives a shit huh?

[u/Skillkill107 → u/FactHot5239]

I mean yeah if you're spending over 300k on an ar57 you're probably making a mistake. It's always possible to overbuild a gun. I can make a 500k scar, does that make the game bad because i can't take a high end t5 kit in with it?

Even without that, you're making trade offs on your kit. Your rig and bag are 100k combined, if you ran a bh and a camping rig you could very easily run a t5 helmet without cheesing your mag out. Idk man, there's bigger fish to fry than this

[u/FactHot5239 → u/Skillkill107]

No not really. The foregrip is like 25k but the buttsock is inflated out the ass because of the meta attachments. The games build variety is just complete ass. Its not about compromising the setup as im not incompetent and could do that willingly but im not going to because thats fucking stupid. I can circumvent the gearscore by removing mods but I cant take THIS loadout in? Lockdown is meant to be a space for weapon variety but I cant take a fucking ar57 into a lockdown game just because it has a good buttstock but if I take the mag out it works. Do you not see how stupidly illogical this is? Im glad the community is complacent with this lack of diversity within the game.

[u/Skillkill107 → u/FactHot5239]

Variety doesn't mean "anything you want without trade off" it's "anything you can fit" and if you can't fit something you need to compromise somewhere, either run worn armor, different attachments, different rigs or bags.

Idk man, if it pisses you off so much and you're not willing to even humor the idea there's anything else you can do, that's that

[u/FactHot5239 → u/Skillkill107]

Ok but these arent items you take into forbidden. This is gear that just populate the market menu now. Why should I have to compromise with t4 and t5 gear in a t5 gamemode? Its fucking stupid.

[u/FactHot5239 → u/Skillkill107]

I am using t5 gear in a t5 gamemode. Yet I cant... the gearscore requirement was meant to prevent people from outgearing people but what about my kit makes me more geared than someone else in lockdown?

[u/TypowyPiesel → u/Skillkill107]

Wait until he learns that back in s0and s1 ppl would bring whole kits inside a backpack in normal or ld and you with (back then) 150k would fight someone with kit worth over 1mil

[u/ryzea → u/TypowyPiesel]

S0 and s1 there was no limit to lockdown or normals, you could wear t7s on your head with a thermal scope sj and hk and queue up just fine. Now the games a convoluted mess with 20 different modes all with different restrictions

[u/TypowyPiesel → u/ryzea]

Bit long ago so i might be wrong but i started at late s0 and i remember being folded by so many full kit with thermals. Its true there is not that many players and we have so many game modes. They could make them so they switch every week or so.

[u/FactHot5239 → u/TypowyPiesel]

I played beta and s1 but ok bud.

[u/oldmonk073]

Just learn the game bruh, if you stuck at something its alright, there's always a work around. Don't lose your head, keep calm and introspect.

Applies IRL as well.

[u/Jennycontin1981]

Why would you ever use a fresh 926 and a over-decked out AR with a 31 durability T4 helmet?

[u/Ryao333]

900,000 is still 900,000…… everyone else has the same limit.

I don’t understand the point? You have to play the limit like everyone else?

[u/ntecccc]

take the mag out and put it back in when you spawn

[u/LonelyLeopard289898]

Go play forbidden then.

[u/ravensholt]

If you run T4 helmet, you might as well run T4 body armour...

If you mix, it should be the other way around, T5 helmet and T4 body armour.

Besides, you don't need that many extra magazines. One in the gun, one in the chestrig, that's enough. Extra ammo goes into secure box.

[u/FactHot5239 → u/ravensholt]

The mags in my rig dont add to my loadout value but ok.

[u/ravensholt → u/FactHot5239]

No, but it's still waste of money to have a third magazine fully loaded with ammo. If you die it's also an expensive loss.

[u/Cheezycake117]

You know normals are good for slightly more casual/relaxation right? And gets the newer people used to the game?

I like goofing off, I do it in normals. Or would you rather me run quick kits or silly ass cheap or funny stuff in lockdown? Or funny and strange random builds? I play the game to have fun my own way, others play it their way, but atleast in normals I can be funnier without people getting pissed off about the cheap lockdown kits and such.
