    Please ignore the forward grip remark on the ghost. I forgot that straight pull bolt let's you scope in a bit faster and that FG increases weapon equip time slightly. For newer players, it's best to equip nothing until you build up the muscle memory to unscope unless in a totally safe situation (which you will learn is not often in PS2, especially for a CQC bolter!).

    about the cqc sniping without a straight pull. the reason its liked by many cqc snipers is that it lets you start aiming before its fully chambered letting you setup the shot right before being able to fire. its not a huge time save but it can get you that one last kill if you got spotted

    I just recently bought AF-6 Shadow and my K/D went from around 1.1 to 2.5. It's not great at close distances, but I find that in my play style I like to keep medium distance and often lost those 1v1's. Now with this weapon and heavy assault I can take multiple enemies that are shooting at me. After 1100hrs on this game I finally found a weapon that is perfect for me.

      @ApolloPS2  Рік тому

      While there have been some major updates I'd say all these choices are still pretty meta. I'd recommend aiming down sights when u can except for high horizontal recoil weapons. When aiming down sights I usually opt for forward grip/flash suppressor, and soft point ammo with a 1 or 2 x sight depending on the feel I get with the gun. For cqc high horizontal recoil I'll decide whether to replace anything with short barrel or laser sight for good hipfire or consider extended mags if the gun is very weak without extra ammo.

    • @ApolloPS2
      @ApolloPS2  Рік тому

      I'd say today I go back and forth since carbines benefit from midair hipfire quite a bit. The new prevalence of icarus makes it a harder choice. The logic still holds firmly for something like the hv45 where the horizontal recoil is ass and since its an AR you are not benefiting from midair hipfire. Some SMGs would be the same except their low damage per magazine make extended mags a usual requirement.

    Wouldnt the TR equivalent to the pulsar c be the cougar and not the t5?

    • @ApolloPS2
      @ApolloPS2  3 роки тому

      They are very closely related, but the T5 AMC was introduced alongside the Pulsar C and AC-X11. It stands for T5 Automatic MARKSMAN Carbine and is the TR's premier long range carbine. The cougar was added to the game alongside the Zenith and Bandit back in 2014. Those 3 weapons were introduced to fill in the holes of each faction's carbine arsenal. For example, the zenith fits between the default solstice ve3 and vx6-7. I actually meant to give the zenith an honorable mention for being a competitive carbine, but had already filmed the voice recording lol. I Def see that both the cougar and t5amc share characteristics with the Pulsar C but don't appear to marry them together. This isn't surprising as TR is not known for competitive longer range weapons, and it is often better to go with an NS variant (NS-11C and NSX Tanto here unless u r married to the 167 damage model).

    So I'm wondering why you would use a forward grip on the low optics bolts? Forward grips reduce horizontal recoil. But by the time you have un-scoped to re chamber the recoil would be reset. You literally only get the downside of longer un equip time when you need to switch to pistol.
