Best Season Ever?

Hi Community, 

I've been playing since this game first came out, I took a couple of breaks here and there but have played a game in every season at least! 

I have to say, at the start of S6 I didn't really like it but now they have changed the shields back to the way they were I think it has got to be the best season. I think all of the characters are balanced as well as the guns. 

There are obviously some areas that need to be to be improved like the matchmaking, the in game audio from enemies (has nothing on games like COD, Fortnite, PUBG) and then this game will well and truly be popping off. 

I'm interested to know what people like / don't like about S6!

    @rockyboy1998 I fear that if the high end PCs arent able to fix many of the issues with sound and stuff, new consoles will not do so.

    This being said I'm enjoying the hell out of this season. The evo armor change has been excellent. Now just give us a p2020 to start.

    @BaldWraithSimp I have to say, I'm going to disagree with you here.

    On all FPS games the benefit of having a burst fire weapon is lower recoil, critical hits but the disadvantage is from close engagements.

    I think they have made the Hemlok and the Prowler great this season and them two guns are actually two of my favourites to use especially when I have the Prowler with a select fire.

    I always have been fond of using burst weapons and was quite baffled when first coming to this game to notice that the Hemlok had some really weird vertical recoil so instead I decided to use the gun in single fire mode and loved it.

    I think all of the guns are in a great place, the only thing that I would say is that the Triple Take is by far the best sniper out there and the others just cannot compete so they need to be looked at and also the Volt is pretty much the only SMG in the game people defo prefer it to the Prowler...

    Also, people use the Volt over using the R301 now which is a shame because I am a big lover of the OG R301!
  • @hayhor I'm not sure I want a P2020 to start... I like the idea of dropping with empty armour and I am glad that this is the case however I am not a big fan of dropping with a weapon.

    I get that it can be extremely annoying to drop and open 4 bins and not find a gun but I would say that 80% of the time I do drop and find something.

    I would hate to be dropping straight away in an area and then being shot from behind by someone with a P2020 and instantly being on lower health no matter what gun I find.

    I do think they should show more love to weapons like the P2020 and Mozam to make people actually not mind picking them up. Maybe make them do some more damage or in the case of the Mozam they should defo give it a bigger mag, a insanely quick reload time and already give it a level 3 bolt IMO.
  • @rockyboy1998  To be fair the prowler never needed a further buff. I've been using it in burst mode primarily for a number of seasons and its always been a monster.

    It's high cycle rate made up for the fact it's a burst weapon, and the fact its burst is almost entirely vertical recoil meant that it was extremely easy to control even during hipfire.

    I agree with the hemlok though, the reduced TTK is what overpowered it earlier in the season, now its in a nice place.
