After watching some montages i realise I still have not master the launcher.

Do any launcher veterans have any input?

What are your best tips on using it?

For me its a hard choice between the launcher or crossbow but lately I have to go with crossbow + hawk eye 2 cus its less effort less set up but way more entertaining watching the scramble while wincing in pain and marking them for that extra few seconds to stress them out even more.

First off and I am anxious if Please someone can finally put this 1st question to rest..

1. Is it possible to stay invisible in listen mode without covertraining i know the infamous "footsplashes" happen but ime this is inconclusive sometimes when staying still you can see them and other times I have managed to stay hidden for over 5 minutes during last man standing. I wonder if pushing the analog stick slightly forward instead of all the way affects it? Does crouching make a difference instead of standing?

2. Does anyone have a full list of every action or move that makes you visible in listen mode along with the range, for example I believe a sprinting enemy can be seen at a greater distance in listen mode instead of walking.

And before anyone asks yes.. I have seen nickehs video and it did not fully answer these questions although it did help.

Peace

I regularly trash whole teams of br, ts gunners and ct campers I down snipers halfway across the map and execute them before they even hit the floor feeling like a jack Bauer type professional type of guy.

How do I do this? With a 9mm and NOTHING else I love the 9mm it is potentially the most powerful gun and no you dont have to get headshots(but they do help ofc) if you can shoot it right and get those hits consistent their is almost nothing they can do i love this gun so much that I happily run gunslinger 2 to ensure I start off the game with almost 3 full clips I have noticed other players that are better than average with it but after practicing for years with it I really do feel like dental Washington in training day or Jack Bauer taking down the bad guys.

By the way I have recorded quite a lot of matches on my ps4 I am just trying to work out how to upload them to YouTube as I intend to become a gaming streamer, I tried to start a YouTube career years ago and had some good gameplay and fire montages but to this day those videos have ZERO views.. I dont understand how people manage to get views when they start a YouTube channel because you are essentially at the back of the queue of thousands maybe hundreds of thousands of other videos and the bottom of the algorithms at the time I was playing cod and mgs5tpp online multilayer, anyway I am hoping the last of us factions will give me a more unique amd exclusive gaming channels for tlou fans we will see..

Anyway getting back on topic the 9mm is incredibly slept on its crazy I will concede that facing more than 2 experienced players with it your odds of winning is nil if you have no throwables in those situation I usually choose yo flee and try to funnel them in and hopefully picking off the spearhead lions (ya'l know the types that act like a lion where as soon as you run away they run after you usually with 1 of their team mates if they all choose to chase me I will just try to lose them and "done see if i can get the angle on em"

By the way I have been a long time lurker in this sub reddit about this brilliant game that i love its an honour to be posting here myself I am also hoping to join one of those fn rules tournament things to. Nice to meet you all i just wanted to express my love for the 9mm and this game.

PS im on ps4 my psn is xXS-SHOOTERxX i am from east midlands uk and i am always looking for experienced professionals players to play or chill with my mic is broke at the moment but i hope to replace it soon. Im just chilling at the moment having a nice smoke and listening to some gangster podcasts but I might have a late night sesh depending on how I feel.

Feel free to discuss the 9mm the pros and cons but just know burst scrubs are not welcome, tac noobs are welcome but they are not allowed to post only lurk as I do not consider them equal to myself, nothing personal its just how I was brought up. Peace 😉
