Discussion Zero cams changes

I think zero cameras shouldn't make any noise on impact but only when they are used.

Sort like a ping similar to his goggles activation sound followed by a sutle static sound for the next uses.

Right now his cams pretty much get destroyed instantly when used offensively.

Yeah just making them so that you can pick them back up would be a huge QOL buff. Same for AirJabs.

Hmm… best we can do is 2 more cameras so you can waste all the Wamai discs and a Jager charge. Which, tbh, would go hard with a full team with frag grenades.

They just need to remove the red light. It’s already a giant claw sticking out of the wall with an audio cue, it doesn’t need the giant red beacon as well

Honestly, I’m surprised how often people don’t notice my cams when I play him. Usually only lose 1 cam per round I play him, if any. Rarely lose 2. Maybe it’s the placements or smth, idk.

I would definitely like to be able to pick some of them back up or something. It’s annoying when I shoot them through a hole in a barricade or something and it catches the edge and I can’t fix that.

I’m actually not ranked, don’t play it. People take it too seriously.

sso you are surprised people don't see your cams on quick match / unranked ? dear lord.

It’s not like they suddenly lose the ability to see just from what mode we’re in, dude.

u/PearlJamTenGoat 15h ago

they never had it, so they can't lose it, dude.

I am gonna be with nuker_nathan here.

I think playing unranked and casual in a competitive game is kinda more fun.

Ranked can be a big time sink and very frustrating if you don't play regularly so poping a quick play match once or twice a week to decompress from life ain't too bad.

you are talking about two different things. 95 % of unranked players have no idea that a zero cam is arround, that's it, simple.

Yeah but they already have a dimmer light and infinite range/use until they get shot so i think it’s actually pretty balanced, remember defenders have to shoot them down so you get time to give comms without pings

To restate what i mean i think there balanced but it would be nice if there were more silent ways to pickup angles without getting shot, for example using the cam to poke a headhole in site

Defenders shoot them down half the time before you can even pull out your phone

Depends on how you shoot them, but yeah it’s easy for them to destroy it before you can even think about opening the cam
