Ooh, that Castle rumor.
That's a pretty good buff, and I like that as I play him a good bit. He's really underrated as he is.

Not really... the Ela skin was delayed out of the previous season into the start of this one. There was only one elite skin release that season because of it.
new defender is either going to be completely broken or completely useless... I suspect the latter but I can't wait to find out which lol
I also hope they don't fucking break Oregon with this rework. It wasn't broken before, so hopefully it's just tweaks like Consulate/Club House to keep it viable with new ops.
No more client side barricades is probably the biggest change coming this season lol

I can see the new defender working. Even if that charge isn't used as much but the ability to jump up hatches? I know we have Amaru on attack and she's not as effective but that is probably in part to how loud her gadget is whereas the defender seems like he can do it stealthily. And a hard counter to shields.
As for Oregon. I love Oregon but I can definitely see why this map has been reworked. Bottom floor is heavily defender sided. Then you have the tower sites and kitchen which are horrible to defend. And the map is very linear to move around. I'm not asking for a big map (far from it!) but it needs more ways to get from one part of the building to another. I think Coastline is a good example of a map that isn't big but not linear. Here's hoping they don't fuck it up and stick to what they did to improve Kafe and Club House.
The debris stuff is massive. I don't usually go for peaks often so it's frustrating when I do try to flank and melee a barricaded window only for the wooden panel to barely move!
Yeah depends on how much sound he makes when jumping (though any shotgun blast to open a hatch is very loud in general). Everything he does just leaves him so incredibly exposed and in a game that's built around pixel angles, either Ubi has buffed him like crazy (Lion/Ela-level broken lol) or he's a casual-only pick. Which tbh is totally fine by me. Amaru is a super fun operator even if she doesn't impact the meta at all.
Yes, this map buff seems like it could be Club House-like, which might be the best map in the game right now (Border is getting a little long in the tooth, I think) and was a phenomenal rework. In particular, connecting the bedroom to small tower is exactly what they did with Club House. Imo, the strongest site on a map also needs to be the funnest to play (since you'll be playing it the most!) and Cash/CCTV might be my favorite site in the game. Very fun to attack, very fun to defend.
All Club House needed was that hallway + the extra stairwell, and that was enough to relieve pressure on some of the choke points. Hopefully Oregon buff is similar.
I can't believe it's been a year since burnt horizon. I was just browsing my shit and noticed I had a recording of this, forgot I had posted it last March. Still my best clutch last year :(
I was just watching some old videos and completely forgot how much random stuff in Clubhouse changed, the hatch over Gym etc. Clubhouse is still the best Map Buff they've done. This looks more extensive than that, but I'm excited. Oregon really is the most boring comp map, even more than Chalet, due to the lack of maneuverability anywhere. I think that the memories of old club house exemplify what a rework should do: It should NOT make me ever long for the old map. Like, it would be fun to play old clubhouse once in a blue moon, but I never once play the new one and go 'y'know, I kinda wish this was old CH still' which isn't necessarily the case for most of the other reworks (which I still think are largely improvements, but I can at least miss the occasional different tactic on them). If this revamped Oregon doesn't just make it 'win downstairs defense' 'hopefully win upstairs' and 'lose your third site' that will be a big improvement.

Chin up, you just gave yourself an opportunity to reinstall Siege.
To SSD, of course.
Pfftt we all know we'll still be waiting on that one player that takes forever to load.
These last few days have been some of the best Siege games I've ever seen. The added UI info, and the great casting make a very complete package.
Yep, I'm always in for SI but this year has been something else. Great games, the new ui is fantastic, everything is good
Panel news: rework of House in S2, then Skyscraper, then Chalet.
At season 3 only one OP released going forward.
One Special event per season and arcade playlists coming (limited time events, first going to be Golden Gun/one shot deagles)
Player reputation system coming with rewards.
Drones can ping defense gadgets. Attacking OPs too! (Coming 1st half Y5)
Perhaps Armor/Speed reworks.
Unknown DMR changes.
Small hard breach gadget coming as rumored. Example: use to open one hatch.
Proximity alarm secondary gadget. OP gets one.
Match replay. Including the new special UI for all player equipment.
Tachanka rework coming. LMG primary weapon, showed use making rotate holes. Special gadget is incendiary grenade launcher.
Map bans coming, 3 offered, teams each ban one, play the remaining.
5-player squad tournaments coming. Sounds short term weekends availability.
Ash - Lara Croft Elite set. LOL!

Also coming to next gen confirmed.
The only thing I was expecting that hasn't happened is cross play.. Strange given ubi implied it would come to all their games. Very happy with the changes though.
Fuck yes at house rework, love that map. I actually think the rework method they're using is a better way of doing exactly what is being done in overwatch 2.. Quite a lot of the maps not in competitive need work, especially visually (plane, I'm looking at you)
I expect that as part of the next gen versions, but we'll see
Yes I hope so - would make sense.
Will be interested to see what the gameplay changes end up entailing as well.
Solid changes. This game has made such immense progress. Im ready for next gen, and I just hope that means the engine limitations theyve had are finally gone next gen. I also love the more arcadey modes they're adding. In fact, Im completely down for a GoldenEye multiplayer with respawns and running around the map without any ATK or DEF roles. Just have fun with it
The pinging system sounds great, though Im not sure I like how accurate it is.
I also like the idea of a pocket thermite. Ideally frees up a hard meta. Also frees up having to pick a Thatcher/Twitch. Proximity alarm sounds pretty good, pretty big buff already for Iana.
IDK how I feel about map voting. I dont want to play the same stale map, and the map curation already makes ranked stale. Tachanka sounds pretty crazy, Im a bit disappointed they moved away from his initial unique role because his rework sounds like a major power creep on Smoke and Goyo
A bit of both I would assume, like Destiny on the PS3. Cut off updates at some point and keep it running a couple years.
I want to see a super limited mode on April 1st that flips the operators sides(Attackers defend against attacking Defenders)

They also touched on looking at other things attackers can do in the set up phase instead of just droning which could be interesting.
So call me a bandwagon jumper. I ended up watching the invitational over the weekend and installed. I'm only about 6 games in and having a great time, even if I'm pretty garbage. I read that the "newcomers" playlist is to be avoided so I've just been doing quick play. I love hacking the phones and setting up bear traps!
Any major beginner tips that could help my early learning?
Any major beginner tips that could help my early learning?
Super shorty for Castle confirmed.
Twitch's F2 recoil increased again. I bet it's now going to be on Bearing 9 levels of difficult for me.
DMRs will open hatches and barricades more easily. I wonder if it's 3 shots like Glaz. They will also have increased soft destruction.
This year is shaping up to be great.
Welcome! Generally, don't reinforce between bomb sites. Running makes a LOT of noise and you can't bring your gun up. Don't do it often. When I learn a new map I say the room names at the bottom of the screen as I drone around. It helps me learn the layout and calls faster. Maybe it will work for you. Have fun!
It has the room names at the bottom of the screen? That's super helpful! I guess I've been too busy glued to looking for people to notice! The layouts are so complex I feel like it would be forever before I have the maps memorized.
They have completely destroyed lesion.. Feels like he was too powerful before but now he does no initial damage AND can't be used for recon outside of noise?!
Twitch also battered, but not as badly.
I mean, the noise is largely all you need. The ability to plant them anywhere on the map and basically get pings when people wander around is a bit absurd. He'll still be fantastic.
Taking the icon away makes sense to me. The thing with no initial damage is that you have a chance of winning a low health clutch instead of dying to an invisible trap. But, if you want to avoid damage you have to pull it out as soon as you get stung. If you walk behind cover you're taking the hit. It's a bit like barbed wire. Put it in a place that they will be exposed to melee it and they won't have time to back off before you can capitalize. If the gu goes off in the middle of the hallway the attacker is still in a vulnerable position.
They might as well have said season 2 then. Seems like pretty much everything they showed won't be included in this season.
It's not going to be season 2, is what I got from that. They're moving to features not being tied to seasons, just characters/maps.
And...I mean the season 1 panel was saturday, the panel Yday was literally the Y5 roadmap, they always do that.
I expect the replay stuff to be mid season 1
I just feel it is strange to make both changes simultaneously, I guess there will be feedback from tts. On the plus side it does make Kapken/Fuse much more feasible.
On another note that end of invitational video is amazing.
