Someone was playing ashkandar earlier, probably cowd. His AK freq was so absurdly high it would only play like bits and pieces of the sound file. He was probably on this other tank that also had a ridiculously high frequency on an EOF.
everyone saw it, nothing new.
The other one that is great is when people AOE at really close range with weapons like doombeamer, and do tons of damage to everyone else but almost none to them.
Now, anyone who actually plays this game legit knows that your own AOE bypasses all your resists from skills and armor etc. A doombeamer fired in a furball will do catastrophic damage to you. This is why no one ever used them.
Until now...the new soad tactic is when overwhelmed or frustrated to pull out the old doombeamer and start firing into the ground pretty much right at their feet. Imagine the rocket launcher from quake 3, using it that way.
Obvious idea but with the self aoe damage also obviously quite stupid. So for years no body did it. Now we can either assume that in the 4 or 5 years that this game hasnt changed at all nobody discovered whatever revolutionary tactic soad has worked out to avoid this self aoe damage...or its simply another one of their sandwhiches.
Ofc we'll hear all the generic excuses "lol 500 base enr con lol" and the GMs wont do a thing.
