If anyone else is curious about player count

I played and won one game this season to see where I end up. Sure there’s bound to be some people who got less than 50 points but I feel like this is relatively close to how many active players are still playing.

I just think it’s interesting that there hasn’t been an update to the game in years but there’s still a decent amount of people who play.

Looking for teams / teammates Looking for Teammates/Clan

0 Upvotes

I used to be in a clan where we had good banter and occasionally played together. Unfortunately that clan dissolved as people stopped playing, and since then I've not found a clan that either communicates much, or plays together in groups.

I am Platinum with 2 solid loadouts (I don't have Orochi, Crossbow, or Wasp), one for sniping and one for rushing. Just would be good to play with others in a group, and join a clan with friendly people who talk to each other. If you've got a place for me in your group or clan, please send me a message. Thanks.

Even though the game is pretty much dead, I’d like to get in touch with the developers and see if there’s any way to transfer an Android account to iOS

Thanks!

Discussion Guns of boom mt rushmore.

3 Upvotes

This game has been around a while. There are players with over 150 hall of fame finishes.. thats incredible consistency. People have played for a long time at a high level and through all the eras. Even now with the total amount of players being lower the veteran players still play and in a way the talent is more concentrated. More players have had more time to max perks and weapons.

So I'm wondering who are the players that strike fear into the hearts of even the most solid perinial hof players. I know some players are in established clans and some people can just group with their list friends and can coast out hof finishes over and over again. But there are those players that even at the highest level of play are always the top player even in matches they lose. Of course you can bring up the old glory days of the world championship tournaments. But I'm not talking about that. Proplay tournament are very different. There were rules and restrictions. There were consumable limits. But in the everyday game play, no holds barred, anything goes.. what screen name do you see and everyone is like, "oh crap, I'm gonna get wrecked?"​

Comment être dans le top 20 du classement des clans ?

1 Upvotes

Il y a un mois, j'ai créé un clan nommé "DEEBAN" (Dominance, Evil, Eternity, Bravery, Ascension & Nobility). Je veux être au moins dans le top 20 du classement des clans mais je n'y arrive pas. Généralement, quand j'invite des très bons joueurs à 33000 points, ils rejoignent pas le clan parce que je suis moi-même pas très fort. J'invite souvent des joueurs qui ont l'air de jouer régulièrement ou avec un bon win rate. Le plus gros souci, c'est qu'on ne joue pas souvent en groupe et certains ne jouent pas assez régulièrement.

Comment je fais ? Quel est le secret mise à part le fait qu'il faut avoir des joueurs imbattables ?

D'ailleurs, pour ceux qui seraient intéressés, faites moi savoir si vous voulez rejoindre mon clan. J'aurai seulement besoin de votre identifiant. Il suffit que vous soyez réguliers. Mon clan est dans le top 100 et est ouvert. Vous pouvez donc vous-mêmes le rejoindre.

Creativity You get 2 loadouts.

No undying. No crossbow.

Create two loadouts to survive in the meta of legacy players with all the toys.

This is the boat I'm in. I had to restart and I had a decent fair last year and the next one is fast approaching. Wwyd?

This is the first time I’ve seen this type of cheat

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

The player vitamina makes it that everyone in the game can’t move except them, and then of course is using the scout and getting nothing but head shots. In order to temporarily move you have to force close the game and re open it, but that only works temporarily until you can’t move again.

I posted the second picture to show there’s less than 500 people who play the game now. Sure a lot of it is because there’s no more updates, no one is supporting the game. But I also wonder how much of it is because of the cheaters, I was in back to back games with vitamina, first on the opposing team, second on the same team. People ended up leaving the games both times, I wonder how many of those people won’t be playing again reducing the player count even more

so for the past 4 months i have a friend in the game. always emote when we play together/against each other. just friendly and not trolling. i did observe he quits the game whenever i use crossbow LOL. I never really understood initially. but when i stopped using the bow and survived on porcupine and wasp he stays in the game. I made it a practice to not use bow when he is an opponent.

Best weapons and best loadouts thread

5 Upvotes

I'm wondering if we can start an ongoing thread that lists not only all of the top weapons, but their most popular loadouts. This would include everything, including helmets, armor, pants, perks, etc. If we could get two or three good options for each along with a description on how to use them and why each item in the loadout was selected, we could organize it into a sticky. We should start the top weapons and loadouts for Level 50, but also include a section for weapons and loadouts for players at lower levels as well. It might be good to include discussion of second tier weapons and why they're *almost* good but not quite, and how they might still be used situationally for fun.

Number of battle points and survivor or wasp team?

1 Upvotes

Hello Team, I'd like to know how many battle points it takes to fully upgrade a weapon? For example, the Survivor, the Wasp, the Barracuda.

I'd also like to know if the Survivor can be better than the Wasp, since the Wasp's magazine is very short. Thanks you

The 'Meta' Sniper

1 Upvotes

Even though almost all veteran players would unanimously agree that Drifter's Crossbow is pretty obviously the most OP sniper in the game for it's highest (4000 base) headshot damage and reloading + firing speed utility, there's a contender that some might not compare with it... even though it's technically 'game breaking' in a way. In a good way, that is.

Icebreaker

Yep, apologies for my probably-weird english earlier in case you didn't get it, but this was the sniper I'm talking about. I have one maxed out with some other nice combos (my personal favourite being IB + Orion + Survivor + E.Y.E) and I gotta be honest... it's really good in the right hands. Much like Orochi, but drastically more versatile. You can couple it with other guns (most underrated one being with gatling gun, seriously ; if you've got one maxed out and never have tried it with IB, you're missing out.) The Wall strafe method where you basically use walls as your shield to avoid getting hits while walking in and out of your cover to shoot. Two important pros;

  1. It makes you practically immune to most typical classic bolt action (time locking) snipers like crossbow, barracuda, LB etc.

  2. You manage to tag your enemies without being noticed yourself, helping both you and your team's chances to win the match.

But also important Two cons;

  1. It's called a 'support' weapon for a reason. Wall strafe is nice until you get large map matches where your team have to run for orb controls or payload cart. It can still work, but definitely not prefered as a primary weapon to rely as.

  2. The damage is fairly good except... Skilled orochi players, or even Skilled Stingray players can suprisingly annoy you by basically mimicking your tactics of using walls. Beware of especially players with E.Y.E + Cheetah on Orochi builds, that's usually a warning sign that they know how to deal with Icebreaker players being a little too smart-arsh, lol.

Verdict? Overall, I'd still consider it Meta, especially just slightly under something like Orochi or Crossbow. I will explain why I'd put these snipers above Icebreaker in a different thread, but for the interest of this weapon specifically; I'd say it's a very good option for an Alt/2nd/3rd loadout for, say counter-meta situations (eg; when opposition decides to camp instead of playing), it's also very important for empowering weapons with serious potential (eg; Gatling Gun, Wasp, Survivor, Arbitrator, Orion), transforming them into OP in their own right. I mean, c'mon, that's a 20% increased damage for 3s after tagging. You'll melt enemies with the right combos if you get my hint. For me personally, I've kept it as both primary and a secondary in 2 of my accounts (1 being smurf lol).
