radio audio being increased by 2.5x is a huge change and will definitely effect raas and aas massively. will make small scouting teams for radios so much more effective and everyone will think everyone is ghosting for a few months 😂
With the FOB creation circle being 150m and audio heard at 50m, the meta is going to be walking 100m away from the HAB/50m away from the edge of the circle, and doing one loop around. It’ll be quick to find the radio that way, like less than a minute.
I almost got a heart attack when reading usmc patch notes, I thought they gonna take away my beloved humvees and mk 153 until I realized its only for one group not entire faction😂
Found your content when i started playing, and then met you in the 1stRB Server a while back and loved playing with you guys! Love your content, and love listening to your voice. Super relaxing on my drive home from work! Thanks for all this info in a small, effecient, digestible package.
@@Slay3Kilo Love to hear it. Im pretty sure i heard leadership talking about a comp scrim with you guys at some point, feel free to reach out of they havent already!
Getting a lot better on handling a rifle I see. As an avid gun enthusiast, I've shot most of the guns we play with in Squad, and a lot of them IRL barely have any recoil at all. I get why they do it, they want your avatar to react as if it is under pressure... but this isn't really the way.
Really nice update, I like the promised changes overall, the slightly tweaked ICO recoil looks much nicer. I like ICO a lot but some guns just felt very bad at times, especially LMGs and ESPECIALLY pistols.
Amazing video, met you on the 1stRB once, I later met you again during the OWI pub server event, forgot what it was called. You deserve all the love you get. Keep it up, love these patch note/update videos!! P.S. I also find it funny im not the only 1stRB guy to comment, see you saw my buddy zryahs comment, didnt even realize he watches you lol
I have made 3 tickets to OWI over the past year about Logar Valley Seed being broken with the northern team being bale to access the southern teams hab, a simple missing "warning barrier". I had it acknowledged by two separate devs and it still hasent been fixed even after 4 updates since then.
idk games such as Tarkov almost only use camera shake to make their recoil. It feels heavy but at least you get to have more control over your weapons unlike with random heavy recoil.
tbh it does feel like there is still way too much sideways jumping recoil, i rly dont mind the gun going stright upwards but it still feels like from what i see, having full stamina and crouched still makes it imposstible to fast tap or full auto a guy that is 10m away from you. This has and will still be the bigest problem i assume
would be cool if the tanks were less arcady and actually had the ammo in the places the irl tank has them + blowout panels. The Leo has the ammo in the front next to the driver and a ready rack at the back of the turret.
i'd like some changes to the SVD on the irregular militia. currently is inusable and doesnt have any advantage over the enemy's standard rifle. the lack of bipod, x4 scope and not being a 1 shot to the chest makes it terrible.
I want to know if there is any ADS speed difference to ARs when compared to iron sight and scoped kind. I really want to they make Iron sight faster and powerful.
this is all great, but my biggest problems with scopes is preformance. Especially on maps like goose bay, Harju and Fallujah scopes are a detrement cause my game slows down to 10-20 FPS per second when looking down them. So I ussually just tend to go for CQB dots or iron sights on those maps even though my PC is absolutely far above the mininum spec. I even have my stuff put to where it should prioritize performance over pretiness but even then its my biggest issue with scopes in this game.
The minimum specs don't matter. The recommended specs are the minimum to actually play. Also, you can tweak the PIP render to have more performance, its just going to look bad when you look through it.
The amount of recoil on 5.56 and 5.45 guns in this game is so absurd it makes me wonder if any of the devs ever shot one irl. Also time to ads on them is absurd. Like cmon m4 weights 6 pounds.
Exactly so many times it happened that an enemy shoots at me fully auto from 5.56 or 5.45 and they miss every single shot from a close distance, and i know for a fact its due to recoil and not because they suck. It happened to me as well, its absurd, glad they changed it
Is it just me or do the Rifles, the bread and butter gun that the vast majority of players are using every round, look exactly the same? Whats the point of trying to finally fix the noodle arms and then not make significant changes? 5:49
Placebo effect. When there are less than 60 fps, things look choppy and that changes how you perceive weapon performance, regardless of if there's any actual difference or not.
From the visuals it looks like they are doing a good job finding a sweet spot between the ICO and original weapon handling. The ICO saves the game from being taken over by brainless twitch shooter players (thank you OWI). However the insane weapon sway is very frustrating even when moving tactically so I'm glad they're reworking it a bit. Fingers crossed that we land in a place that makes the game as fun as possible while still punishing no-brain run and gun players.
I mean if most people want to play as US Army (and USMC almost as often) then… that’s what people want. There are a few servers that don’t do voting though. I agree voting has sort of killed the factions.
@ Its boring playing the exact same factions over and over. And some servers feel like they dont even play the unconventional factions like Militia or INS!
@@chris-zt7eo gee what a compelling argument. I’d argue that the class is useless anyway when you can just play rifle man and be useful if the scoped lmg role is taken
@notme7486 The reason you take the M27 kit is because it's exactly like a rifleman except you get 13 mags instead of 7 and no ammo bag. It's different to an M16, because it fires full auto, has a bipod, better irons with the iron sight equipped ones, better recoil and accuracy overall, and a slower firerate.
Havent played squad since the massive change of guns. PiP scopes are awesome, but suppression and shitty recoils was just to much to be enjoyable. Cant believe its that long that i havent played one of my favourite games.
@sprocastersprocaster i believe it is. But everytime i come back, the movement and gunplay is just boring and random. I know squad is about tactical gameplay, but its also FPS game and gunplay and skill should matter also. Before changes it was a lot more interesting.
Will the rate of fire of the AS VAL be changed? Or will it remain 650 rounds per minute in the game files, and not 900 as it should be? The recoil also needs to be reduced for this assault rifle. Give a bunch of cool grenadier kits for the Americans, but still not make it possible for the VDV to walk around with a loaded grenade launcher? Will the optical sight on the AK-101 still work incorrectly for PMCs? Incorrectly sighted in reticle. Add Mosin rifles to the insurgents to counter the new PMC? Seriously? Bad small arms, bad tanks, bad IPV's, bad APC, no deployable ATGMs, now this is one of the worst factions in the game. How fun it was to play them before. We need to add TNT blocks to the some insurgent kits. And some powerful technics for the mechanized brigade. For example ZSU-23-4 Shilka.
FINALLY. They shouldve reworked ico ages ago, better late than never i guess. Hopefully they learned their lesson. Hopefully theyll do more to fix imfantry at and tows. Glad gunplay isnt something to be coped through (hopefully we'll see how it plays) to get to teamwork.
@ same, I used to play so much before the change. All the long time players hated it and they were too stubborn to revert it so they are slowly doing so now
@@MrWinchester1995 we lost 95% of the core player base in Australia. The numbers are coming up but they are new players. All the good sl's and players are gone so public matches are just choas with no organization.
I got Squad about this time last year and when reading the patch notes more often than not I keep saying to myself: Why did they implement this now? This is a game that's almost 10 years old. This game still has a lot of potential, I hope they can keep delivering updates like this or even better
People don’t just replace games with sequels anymore like they used to as a rule. If they can update squad to UE5, why make a new game entirely? It’s just a waste of resources
@@justasplanned4834 Yeah I hope they can use UE5 to their advantage and provide updates that can make the game even better. I'ts just that sometimes it's like: why didn't they think this in the past? although the ICO already meant a big update and we're still dealing with a lot of changes on that
This game is losing itself trying to cater to a different audience, the overall player quality is so low there’s way less teamwork than before too many cod players trying to be a one man army
this is actually...a good point. The whole point of removing the Marines tanks was to give Army stuff to shoot. Now we lost our tank, and no Army tankers are with us. Joy.
@Slay3Kilo I seen it was only one battle group, just wanted to add my two cents on the real life reqson, but why did they take the m27 away, its fielded by the grunts? NM, think the IAR is a variant of the m27, haven't played since ICO, i was shit before it and that just made it worse.
idk devs finally should move their asses and go to shooting range and see how weapons works and recoil, or maybe devs are 12 year old girl and cant hold weapon, thats should explain recoil going to space in this game, lmao.
Man, whats is this review, shooting a target from 10m from a static position, it wasnt the issue, issue was shooting/aiming after moving/running why not showing this? Again shows how dudes playing squas few hours a day create opinions about the game

on facebock they say it will release 8.2 on 2.12.2024
"Switching to your sidearm is faster than reloading"
Squad: "hold my animations"
Even then, switching to your sidearm is still faster than reloading
It is still faster
radio audio being increased by 2.5x is a huge change and will definitely effect raas and aas massively. will make small scouting teams for radios so much more effective and everyone will think everyone is ghosting for a few months 😂
I gotta feeling people will start putting the HAB's closer to Radios more than before
With the FOB creation circle being 150m and audio heard at 50m, the meta is going to be walking 100m away from the HAB/50m away from the edge of the circle, and doing one loop around. It’ll be quick to find the radio that way, like less than a minute.
Idk what they are thinking. I think derending fobs is already too difficult or not happening at all. Why would they make this horrible change
@@Time_flies_fast They made this massive change and returned machinegun accuracy back to being a laser. Its like we're progressing but backwards.
I’m glad they’re reworking the battle rifles. The current recoil is ridiculous and I wanna enjoy nations using 7.62
I almost got a heart attack when reading usmc patch notes, I thought they gonna take away my beloved humvees and mk 153 until I realized its only for one group not entire faction😂
Looool

I have made 3 tickets to OWI over the past year about Logar Valley Seed being broken with the northern team being bale to access the southern teams hab, a simple missing "warning barrier". I had it acknowledged by two separate devs and it still hasent been fixed even after 4 updates since then.
would it be possible for you to do a video comparing how weapons feel after moving?
Honestly any camera shake is annoying for me. I love battle rifles but that detail can be left out IMO
As a freakbob enthusiast, I wholeheartedly agree
The game tries to simulate war , a bomb going off near you will have a shockwave that will affect you
@@diogoribeiro3811exactly when a bullet flies by your head you’re going to flinch
@@GageNewman-s9c it breaks the sound barrier around you , I can agree

This has and will still be the bigest problem i assume
I noticed some but I also saw a little more consistency with it. So while it happens, it’s a tiny bit more predictable. Not certain though.
Then go play cod
@@DHell-n8i never heard that one before, not like i have invested 4k hours and just want the game to be less RNG based and more skill based
@@nablynxsquad Nothing about it is RNG, just learn how to preserve your stamina.
@@DHell-n8i🤡
I’m a big fan of how gunplay currently feels, but icl this got me excited
We need the HK58 back
FOV of PIP scopes needs drastically increased, tracking & shooting targets is hella frustrating.
No, because then there would be no downside to picking the PIP scopes.
Me when the G3 is finally usable
Adjust the recoil on MEA faction's gun. It is CRAZY 😂
would be cool if the tanks were less arcady and actually had the ammo in the places the irl tank has them + blowout panels. The Leo has the ammo in the front next to the driver and a ready rack at the back of the turret.
Everything looks fantastic but I hope they reduce the camera shake, seems like it would cause more motion sickness lol
i was realy hoping for that m14 to be like also with a x4 scope
i'd like some changes to the SVD on the irregular militia. currently is inusable and doesnt have any advantage over the enemy's standard rifle. the lack of bipod, x4 scope and not being a 1 shot to the chest makes it terrible.
I'll be happy when they add weapon mounting to every weapon. That and variable leaning.
First! Always appreciate a thorough explanation of everything that I can watch at work
Appreciate ya!
MEA kit updates feel significant to me. I LOVE the G3 but I think the new kits will make them more versatile as a faction.
Having the new AK for them is great
@@Slay3Kilofinally
After so many years we still don't have weapon resting
I want to know if there is any ADS speed difference to ARs when compared to iron sight and scoped kind. I really want to they make Iron sight faster and powerful.
That’s a great question, I think it’ll be relative. Iron sights is faster, scope a bit slower.
there is a speed difference on ads already on live game,irons already have the fastest
There is an ads difference. Kits that have weapons with foregrips have a faster ADS speed than other kits with the same attachments.
this is all great, but my biggest problems with scopes is preformance. Especially on maps like goose bay, Harju and Fallujah scopes are a detrement cause my game slows down to 10-20 FPS per second when looking down them.

Duuude, that updated M249 🥵
I just hope they fix the iron sights for the m4/m16 rifles. Your eye is like an inch away from the rear iron sight
That's how its supposed to be
"sankshan islands" is crazy @ 9:00
Not everyone works at temu or shein
I wonder if they are going to fix 'phantom shooting' issue someday.
Good video cheers
Thanks 👍
hopefully better fps too
the suppressed marksman kit is gonna be yuge
Could be fun!
looks playable again
Is it just me or do the Rifles, the bread and butter gun that the vast majority of players are using every round, look exactly the same?
Whats the point of trying to finally fix the noodle arms and then not make significant changes?
5:49
The game needs to update the 1p29, it feels so dificult to walk some meters, stop and shoot, took almost 3 seconds to stabilize
This game looks fun
You won’t like it. You should try farm sim tho 😂
i swear the fps difference in weapon performance is still in affect. the ones where it says current, they look way more accurate in almost all ways😞
Placebo effect. When there are less than 60 fps, things look choppy and that changes how you perceive weapon performance, regardless of if there's any actual difference or not.
Lord owi plz let me play the CTAS again I miss it
I miss it too!
Thank god they're making these changes because it was sluggish and nearly unplayable...
Leopard is broken with this update... you can engine it with rifle caliber rounds....
Im just wondering when you shot at each other bullets dont work anymore? that was the mechanics before thegreat infantry nerf, now its even worse
fixing the ICO is real? no way.
The only question i have is where you got that patchnote. I couldnt find it anywhere in net and i want to read it fully
Squad partners and server owners typically get them early and prior to the official release.
Good but they should focus on optimization
Where u getting these patch notes from? I couldn't find anything.
So we slowly moving back to pre infantry overhaul. And i like it. Playing with previous recoil feels like you gave a gun to a baby for the first time
The M110 is sick for US Army.
Pretty neat
From the visuals it looks like they are doing a good job finding a sweet spot between the ICO and original weapon handling.

Fingers crossed that we land in a place that makes the game as fun as possible while still punishing no-brain run and gun players.
Whats the point of adding new guns and factions if every game is just gonna be US vs RUS

friendly name tags and trained soldier recoil when ?
They should modernize the PLA infantry give them new weapons and equipment
Removing the M27 IAR from all but one battlegroup is actually fucking criminal. Usually I try not to question game devs but what the fuck.
It’s basically a reskinned m16 who cares 🤣

Not that anyone does it anyways as is
with this gun chances TLF and MEA gonna be much more fun specialy the TLF with tandem rpg
