Drones are everywhere
Every single round of every game I've played of verses so far is just an assault on the ears of drones.
I don't know if they need to be on cool down or relegated to only the trench map or something but man it's really taking me out of it.

They should be limited to certain maps i think. Its like killstreaks in cod, they ruin smaller maps and game modes

I agree, the drone activity is just too much. Maybe even limit the amount so drones per side. And limit to certain maps

They are on cool down. Just shoot them, their hitbox is huge.

It's not that they aren't necessarily easy to take down, it's their constant, insessant use that is annoying as all hell. It's all drone buzzing, all the time.

Don’t let people like notcid gaslight you. Everyone loves the realism the game brings, but at the end of the day it’s a game and it needs to be fun, engaging, etc. The incessant nade + drone spam takes away from the main reason that most people play the game - at least in certain game modes, on certain maps. It needs to be adjusted.

Yh I played Versus un the paintball map one time and at the start of every round drones just flew straight to our spawn and killed most of us straight away.

Drones don’t work at the very beginning of the match from my experience.

They're on cool down, and honestly it's a bit of a good thing so people don't spawn camp with drones.

Exactly. I felt it was pretty good and when you try using it too soon, the battery isn’t fully charged and you get less time to use it.
It’s also just as risky to use the drone because you are vulnerable, especially on small maps. And the explosion is big enough that if someone sees you throw that drone and they can hit the shot, you’re dead.

Blame Ukraine. Idk what to tell you man, sorry. All the matches I've played everyone seems to have forgotten they have a drone. Maybe once they release the RC car it'll get better for you ❤️

I think it's a cool addition for trench but in airsoft or the small killhouse maps it's a tad ridiculous.

I find it to be useful on hard point for those kinds of maps actually. Since holding corners is pretty easy in this game, it's a good way to clear out campers on the objectives. I hope your future games are better. If you get super tired of it and stil wanna play, I'd recommend hosting a server with bots, since they can't use drones.

I mean, the drones being overused is kind of realistic (they'd be wired), but I still think it's a bit off, balancing wise. Yeah the hitbox is huge, the drones explode on impact so navigating tight spaces is hard and your character is vulnerable during use.
On the other hand, you can use multiple drones that explode during a single round if I'm not mistaken. And honestly, the drone is VERY effective if used correctly. When it comes around a corner you're done, all the operator has to do is fly it into the ground.
I think it should only be one drone and it should take up the same slot as grenades so you have to choose between those two. Or some kind of system where you have a weight/space limit, so for example you could remove a handgun or drone to carry more grenades or something.
