As an infil main (battle/scout rifle) I hate stalker infil too... with deep operative they can be right in front of me and I still can't spot them. And I guess most players don't have the patience to hunter them down even when they are aware that the stalker is in the area.
I don't like using Deep Operative because I usually play faster and I enjoy running around. It seems useful for a more methodical approach and I've died to DO users many times where I can't see them.
Dying to a stalker infil is like dying to a landmine. They both just sit there and do nothing meaningful until you run by and/or are distracted. Imagine coming home from work to play as a landmine 😂
Apparently I just suck lol. Still curious because they chased me like they were following my footsteps on the floor and ran exactly where I was pretty much exactly.
4 NS pistols and one NC pistol were mastered for this? Man, shame on you. I loved the Mag shot, Mag scatter, and rebel. I struggled with the desperado some times but ultimately i loved the NC pistols more than the soulless NS pistol spam. For shame. I trusted you. lol
I had those other ones from buying them with DBC years ago I've only ever used the Mag Shot, not really any other faction specific on any other factions either. :(
@@ThankYouForComing Shame. personally, I made it a mission to learn every single gun on TR. It was mostly to see why people complained about them being bad or worse than others, i found the complaints to be pretty baseless, with a few exceptions (looking at you Dragoon). Give them a try. They arent the instant-win buttons that the revolvers offer, but they are fun to use.
@@HPmcDoogle You don't like the Dragoon? That's the last gun I was working on with my Connery TR character hahaha. I'm sure I'll try them all someday. I did like 40% of them already. I still need to try the pistols but I'm really bad with every single sidearm and try to avoid using them if possible.
@@ThankYouForComing The solution to being bad with any weapon is to force yourself to adapt to them, you'd honestly be surprised how many weapons are in this games's arsenal that are a ton of fun.
@@HPmcDoogle I have messed up hands due to breaking them multiple times from severe bone loss and I can't hold my mouse correctly anymore so using things that require single clicks is difficult and not worth trying most of the time
This isn't as effective as it was when there wasn't a killcam to give away your position. I always liked the Hunter QCX crossbow for it's one shot headshot kill ability. You were dead if you missed your headshot but no risk no reward.😊😊
@@ThankYouForComing Used to be a power knife but now just about any "knife" will do and then the blackhand for mid range or the emissary if I was going to do lots of close up work like in a biolab :)
@@ThankYouForComing I'm a big fan of the emissary, it was the first sidearm I arx'd. Yeah, RIP old power knives, you could almost see the confusion on your enemies face as you ran full speed, materialized half a meter in front of them then dropped them with a single swing as they scramble to back away.
I don't get the hate it gets, I mean, as an infil your armor is literaly paper, and cardboard at best with the nano armor cloaking thing, with the stalker skill is limited to only secondaries! Is just an intel operative/hacker/saboteur, that's the role for the infil, of course thanks to the cloaking modules he can get some kills but is entirely as an opportunistic, but still fun if you like the wary playstyle lol
It's because the "goal" of PS2 has shifted from just a large scale war game into a competitive FPS where most players who are still active play it a hypercompetitive sweaty way and think that Infil detracts from that. PS2 was never meant to be played that way which is why so many of the design choices cater to "cheesy" or "noob" playstyles.
@@ThankYouForComing Oh ya, hypercompetitive, I saw the beef you have with that player on the vid 🤣🤣 Btw, for you hand (and in general) just try to stop eating everything that causes iflammation avoid grains, get un-processed sources of calcium (ask some really old people, farmers) and eat more eggs and meat, maybe you don't know but that is the only way to keep our tissues, muscles, tendons in the best possible shape, also there's some shops that sells raw stuff for cake shops, check for some unflavored jello (that thing will make you feel like you are 12 again lol) And get some sun! Source: 20 years ago I worked my ass in a tech-cave that I called my pc repair shop for 10 years without getting anything healty just the fast food from the mall and no sun, I got similar problems as you described in another comment below.
that class is my main i run but not same gun sadly i use the auto pistal its not 2 hits and gives others a decent chance to kill me mainly cuz i cant hit my shots xD
for sure your skill is op, but in my server the enemy in fight never stop in aim, repair and heal. 10/8 player are old player. as a noob like me without your skill, sometime feel sad as can't kill and even get killed XD anyway thks for good video.
I've mained stalker for years. Yet blackhand is op, I only use blackhand once awhile. I wouldn't overuse blackhand gives Infils bad rep. It's ok to toy with however. Hunter crossbow is more fair. I don't believe anyone should call themselves a stalker if they don't knife half the time tbh.
& I mean full equip melee. Not just pistol whip & melee slash. 2 hits with a close range melee knife type, half the time you play or else you're not truly a real stalker.
tbh I only use blackhand if I'm dueling a sniper or scout rifle vet who just killed me 4 times and he has +40 more fps than my laptop has. If not you're just gonna make more " nerf infil nerf cloak " threads. or worst get new players to quit.
One of the most Infamous Infil users on my server is a Stalker Main. I think he auraxed every single knife, so there's definitely fun to be had playing Stalker! Lol
I just think it's a funny reference. th-cam.com/video/prw3C59-bjE/w-d-xo.html I used to use a clip from Soul Calibur 3 for years. I'll probably change it again at some point.
I've heard a lot about Stalker Infiltrator as well, especially if they're in the middle of a fight and just randomly kill you then go back to sneaking around without anyone noticing.
@ThankYouForComing you can do that with silenced smg too. Just keep moving and shooting people in your way while avoiding being in to many people's line of sight. Really fun hit and run play style. Works especially well in player bases 😉
@@ThankYouForComing my aim too, but it's really give u adrenaline, when u can kill 2-4 enemy in one situation, even if this happened one time from 10. Also use amaterasu at once after stars, it's faster than pistol. And run as z-trajectory to make close combat, if enemy see u and start fire (often not working with HA - too big mag).
I quite like stalker infil, though I do understand those who may "hate" it. I did the same thing to get the Executive, being that I'm not really a sidearm user but that may depend on what sidearm
It's the most interesting way for me to focus on pistol kills. I usually never play it for any other reason ever. I did occasionally use it for Power Knifing a while back for Halloween events, but since the nerf I haven't bothered as much.
@@ThankYouForComing agreed, this play style is definitely different when playing infil generally when doing something specific. Even with power knifing as you said, but I haven't done it myself. I usually do a "run-and-gun" style with SMGs on infil
@@soksocks Oh same haha, I have so many videos like that, mostly centered around getting various Auraxium medals with a ton of SMGs. Most of the NC ones were done a long time ago though so most of my videos are about TR and VS. I do have a few about the Tempest and also the other NC SMGs if you would like some links. Honestly the NC SMG video is one of my favorites I've made.
@ThankYouForComing yea I've been getting wreck so much that I made a new character just to join the winning side. It's nearly impossible for new players to help the weakest side without getting farmed.
Most hated is stalker cloack + deepoperative implant
I should maybe try it out more, I haven't messed with Deep Operative.
@ThankYouForComing it's very situational I've found, but if you can pull it off more power to ya! 👍
Ah, yes, the DOS infil.

i really love the "dying 5 meters around the corner" in this game :)
Hasn't happened to me much due to me having decent ping. When higher ping players are on the server it happens way more.
The only play style where you can auraxium T-Bag Consistently.
You're not wrong. Maybe I should have taken advantage of that more.
Dying to a stalker infil is like dying to a landmine.
They both just sit there and do nothing meaningful until you run by and/or are distracted.
Imagine coming home from work to play as a landmine 😂
Nice loadout! I use the Blackhand too, just with a hunter cloak and the Armstice. It's pretty fun
The Armistice is one of my favorite SMGS, it's amazing. I did an entire video on that gun haha.

@@ThankYouForComing Oh nice!, I'll definitely check that out!
@@TheWingman-v4u Let me know what you think :D
As a fellow NC, I approve of this infiltrator. Now for the TR... and don't even get me started on those spandex fairies!
You're just jealous because our spandex suits emphasise how good our physique is. ;)
Amazing shots wow
stalker infil is high risk/high reward so it can be fun at times
I miss the power knives :(
High risk low reward tbh. You get good killstreaks, sure, but kills/minute is still fairly low.
I haven't play for a little bit but is that cloud camo on those pistols? Cloud camo my beloved.
it's from some summer event, I think 2019 or 2020

Maybe. I've been using it a bit but I don't think it's that fun.
@@ThankYouForComing I just like the style of the weapon, true it's not op but it is a unique weapon of it's kind.

How's it going so far?
Weirdly, same???? What are the odds
going rly well actualy, finaly geting a positive kd xd@@ThankYouForComing
When using the Blackhand don't use the deafult scope. Any other scope let's you see the recticle while cloaked.
This and catlike to climb up where most classes can't reach is a blast. Takes a lot of practice to get a feel for climb exploiting, though.
Does Deep Operative really do anything on a stalker?
Yes, but with the way I play I don't generally use it. I'm way too aggressive most of the time.
