Cheater gets banned by the new Overwatch system in round two, then receives literal VAC bans (not VACnet cooldowns) on multiple accounts live on stream. “What? What did I do wrong, bro? I’m completely innocent.” Completely crashes out and blames it on Valve.

We’re back with the same genius. First, he receives another VACnet cooldown. Then he switches to a different account, reaches the second round, and gets Overwatch banned mid-game. Later, multiple accounts receive actual VAC bans. Not VACnet cooldowns. Not temporary flags. Literal VAC bans. He then starts laughing like an anime villain.

His response? “What did I even do, bro? I’m completely innocent. I have done nothing wrong, bro.” He starts screaming, “I’m gonna *censored* them, bro,” rage quits the stream, and then crashes out in his Discord server blaming Valve employees for everything.

According to him, a Valve employee must be watching his stream and personally hunting down his accounts. Of course. It couldn’t possibly have anything to do with the rage cheating he publicly broadcasts.

VACnet cooldown. Overwatch ban. Multiple actual VAC bans. Bro collected the entire CS2 enforcement pipeline on stream and still insists he has done nothing wrong.

The state of BF6's team balancing and other frustrations...

This game needed persistent servers yesterday. The casual social aspect of playing with familiar names is entirely absent. Teamplay seems like more of an afterthought than ever. And half if not sometimes nearly all of the server on the actual "Battlefield" maps are the same Class.

The entire matchmaking system, the cheating [Bots] and current team balancing make BF6 significantly more unrewarding to play than prior Battlefield games. Not only does that suck the fun out of the experience, but also the obscure and convoluted Conquest comeback mechanic that dynamically warps the ticket bleeding. Close games and comebacks just feel inorganic and unearned. All that said, the worst is when one team is able to All-Cap the other before 5 minutes of game time have even gone by.

I can still enjoy the game, but I have to completely disregard the competitive aspect and solely focus on my own performance to do so. BF6 has content and it's reasonably polished, but as an interactive digital game, it has a long way to go before it's even half as well designed as the best Battlefield games. Realistically, it will never be and maybe I should instead be hoping EA sells the IP and studios to another Publisher on the off chance that that they could do better. I wish the best to all the devs still working on BF. At the very least, hopefully they apply the lessons they learn from BF6 onto the next BF game.

The M45A1 with Subsonic rounds is the perfect Spec-Ops secondary.

The 1911 was updated in the latest patch to have it's .45 ammunition share the same effect as Subsonic rounds available to other guns. This means that with a Suppressor, enemy players have to be within 9m of you to see you show up on the mini-map. While other handguns have subsonic ammo, this saves the 1911 5 attachment points that could be allocated elsewhere. And between all the handguns with subsonic rounds, the M45A1 has the fastest TTKs within 9m

I've settled on Suppressed 1911 optimized for hipfire and sprint recovery. This could be used on any class, but Spec-Ops has quieter crouch walking and crouch running speeds. This makes it more likely that you'll have the awareness advantage against enemy players in CQB. Even if you do run into each other at the same time, the combined 67ms Sprint Recovery and 367ms 3 BTK of the M45A1 is competitive against most primary weapons besides SMGs, Carbines or Shotguns. Assault Rifles with Fast Mags and without handling enhancing grips almost all lose this TTK contest. Regardless, you'll have the hipfire mobility advantage with full walking speeds and jumps to throw off their aim.

Now I've noticed that the killstreaks I can go on with this secondary are easier to manage with the reduced spotting range. With a good Primary, this sidearm, motion sensors, better audio and C4 traps, Spec-Ops can be difficult to contest with.
