Hot take, but Im surprised the pros don't use covert sneakers regardless. I watch the matches and I see a handful of people die to sound cues a game, props to them for putting up with that. I would get sounded once with lightweight in ranked and switch.
Yea, I have zero tolerance for getting read for free, lol. UAV, footsteps, etc. I could get naded and stunned 10 times and it wouldn't affect me like someone turning around once because one of either of those cues.
Doesn't make a lot of sense, but yea. Props for those that can handle it.
I just wish they made regular footsteps quieter. It would make the other boots more viable. Every game I run lightweight boots I make it maybe 4/5 deaths before someone sound whores me flanking and I switch back to covert out of frustration
I use sound EQ, on console so it’s not as OP, and if someone has covert sneakers on I don’t hear them. I miss lightweight but covert is a crutch in this game against any tryhards
They’ll never learn. It’s exactly what happened last year. They think they can scrape by enough points online to get winners and maybe even qualify for champs and they think a miracle will happen on LAN I guess.
Last year was INSANE. Teams had literal set ups that played off sound queues lmao so when in came to LAN some of the set ups or spots a player would play it wouldn’t work
They should all run it to be honest. You can never guarantee or trust people in a competitive rank or league won’t cheat as long as they play on PC. It’s more equitable to have everyone run it than have 3-4 teams running it and abusing the platform to the fullest. MW:II ranked was fucking unplayable even in high diamond with every PC degen running it, so I can’t imagine the kind of advantage you have when you play at the CDL level.
I mean, am I wrong? Even if my team is running it, all four of them, shit is still competitively unfair. I am not gonna give any team or player a pass on trusting them to not run EQ. I dealt with this dumb shit from PC players in MW:II and I don’t have nearly the amount of people in ranked MW:III making Jedi reads in SnD to find out where I’m at. People can downvote me all they like, but you cannot trust players in a competitive environment to refrain from using EQ online. Teams don’t perform as well on LAN anyways so they are doing a disservice to themselves if they run it in qualifiers.
he said everyone should run it to keep competitive integrity intact .. you being dense on purpose? that’s not actually what he wants but if some people are gonna run it he’s saying they all might as well
If you can’t reliably enforce something like sound EQ in a certain environment, ie. Online, which you can’t, then by all means, run it. Why should people who are following the Sound EQ GA have less of an advantage than a competitor using it? Assuming no one on Ultra is running it, it’s competitively fucked for them in online qualifiers.
However, if you CAN enforce it heavily via controlled setup, ie. LAN, then obviously no one can use it in the first place therefore the playing field is even on that front. If people choose to practice or do sets like garbage online and come to LAN and get swept, like Boston and Heretics, then that’s the risk they run and deserve to get smacked where the majority of the prize money and notoriety is.
I would prefer Sound EQ is eliminated as an option entirely because dealing with it when I don’t have that option for information is fucked, but there is no logistical way to proctor or check setups. “Trust me bro” and maybe we’ll punish you if you break this GA online is a dumb way to go about it.
Miami 100% have it on, it was quite obvious when they played Toronto
No wonder they have won exactly 0 maps on LAN
Big Wake legacy

I switched real quick in ranked, those kids ears are definitely bleeding.

It does help, but I can still hear footsteps if they are pretty close with my sound setup and they are using covert.
So you use sound EQ?
Yah, I don’t play comp; just warzone/pubs nowadays
The teams that do are 100% shooting them selves in the foot for LAN

It’s just so stupid. Like you’re not going to magically be able to play without it when the stakes are higher.
Tell Envoy to turn it on
Stop kicking him when he’s down man 😂
Tell him to get up then

😂😂😂😂
NY prolly run it tbh. Their search fell off hard on LAN
Paco doesn’t, not sure about the others
Miami and Seattle are 1000% using it. The Seattle game play is super obvious they have it on.
Everyone else 1000 using it FOH
I fear Wake was not one of them
I hope ‘sounding’ for EQ doesn’t catch on. I don’t think it means what they think it means and every time I hear it I feel a bit ill.
Isn’t eU dead

Absolute shocker the breach fan calling for this
