[honest heron]

Gotta head to work but I'll grind later today

[mellow kestrel]

i find volt on drop instantly every game so far but not a single energy mag anywhere

[honest heron]

Volt doesn't need one rly

But that is weird

[bright elm]

lighting is sick

aim feels crispy

B)

[honest heron]

How is relic

I never got to play og skulltown

[mellow kestrel]

from the little i saw of it in my pub it seems nice

[bright elm]

a lot of caustics

= not fun

but fun at the same time

[true ravine]

there is so many volts on the ground now, finally a good weapon 🙏

[mellow kestrel]

^^

[mellow kestrel]

have you found an energy mag or no

i played a few matches and found 0

but alot of volts

my RNG just trippin right

[brisk talon]

Feel like that’s how it be though lol there’s always at least 1 thing a day it just says no to

[true ravine]

yep

im always with purple mag

[mellow kestrel]

yeah i finally found a grey one just now

tf is the loot

looted a bunch and killed like 7 ppl

that had volt

not a single mag 💀

was actually starting to wonder

[vague nexus]

is this normal?

[stone kite]

yes very

[strange schooner]

Anyone that's tried both Dyac and Gsync for Apex, which do you prefer? Or none?

[hasty cedar]

Gsync + Nvidia Control Panel vsync + Capping frames by RTSS

no vsync enabled in game

[dusky summit]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/778431352831868946/1006648909558448209/unknown.png

[mellow kestrel]

what skin is this

[mellow kestrel]

this is what i used to do but idk man

RTSS adds a fair bit of input lag

though its very smooth

i used to shill RTSS for a long time but Torje convinced me otherwise

mouse feel is so much better with ingame cap

regardless of slight stutters

but its a tradeoff either way tho, smoothness vs responsiveness

[strange schooner]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zv2UTb1BllM&t=2689s this video claims that NVCP Framerate cap is better than RTSS, but he doesn't talk about the forced frametiming so I'm unsure, if you're interested in trying that instead.

[dusky summit]

hunter event

[mellow kestrel]

ty

and dont let anyone tell you gsync bad

gsync adds like 1ms inputlag at most

[strange schooner]

That's...not what I said at all lol

[mellow kestrel]

when did i say you did

[strange schooner]

The video i linked actually vouches for using Gsync, that's why I'm asking

Sorry i thought you implied it

I've been experimenting with Dyac on and off

The motion clarity when it works is really good, but i think it's fatiguing on the eyes

So i'm exploring Gsync for better motion clarity + cleaning up stutter/tearing better + not being so fatiguing on the eyes

[hasty cedar]

I have a gsync monitor and nvidia reflex; it doesn't feel too bad. I got a mid cpu so getting consistent frame times on average is a better choice.

[violet sphinx]

what are the best ranked legends to rank up quickly on rn?

preferably not a bulky legend like gibby or caustic

[hasty cedar]

can't go wrong with scan legends seer, bloodhound, valk

valk just got huge nerfs to movement though

[violet sphinx]

ive been trying to run seer

[mellow kestrel]

yeah with ingame cap you're gonna notice framedrops more

even with gsync

RTSS is really nice for that

180 ingame cap + gsync + reflex enabled atm feels nice

[teal moth]

AJAHAHAH

[mellow kestrel]

too accurate

when in doubt Q to labs portal 👍

[white thicket]

So I hit gold on voltaic benchmarks

Anyone have an opinion on whether I should keep doing voltaics fundamentals or switch to the apex specific routine to improve the most at apex

[true ravine]

keep doing fundamentals

until diamond

[white thicket]

Ok thanks

[violet sphinx]

why are all my teammates so dogshit

im trying ranked out and this game out in general again so im in bronze but nobody can do more than 100 dmg

[strange schooner]

That's how it goes homie. Apex's design breeds complacency and mediocrity. It's also the first day and a ranks were reset.

[mellow kestrel]

ok mastiff is still beyond busted good to know

[teal moth]

I already wanna shoot myself in the head

after 2 games of KC ranked

[mellow kestrel]

same but pub

[teal moth]

None of the poi's feel fun to fight in

legit none

i can't think of 1

[mellow kestrel]

i used to like market

[teal moth]

every single one of them is akward

[mellow kestrel]

but idk how it is now

[teal moth]

besides like crash site

and maybe spotted lake

[violet sphinx]

i keep getting shit on while my teammates cant even kill 1 person who was already cracked

[bright elm]

im going crazy rn

holy fuck

[nimble stag]

Eva still blows lol

How you buff it likr 4 times

[proven pulsar]

nooooo kris dont go crazy

[teal moth]

yeah ranked is fucked

casual +400

cause why not

[stray valley]

You're smoking dic

[mellow kestrel]

rip 1v1s

[bright elm]

she's so fat

[bright elm]

b-but

women being fat?! i-impossible

[teal moth]

??

[bright elm]

nah u right, her hitbox is fat as shit

[teal moth]

i forgor how bad apex players are

Or maybe the game is hard

Guy couldn't EVEN CRACK

A GUY STANDING STILL ON A FKN DOOR DUDE

And out valk was in jaking off

while we 2v3'd

[true ravine]

stop complaining about randoms

[teal moth]

Dud if i 1 clip hardeki

and this guy can't kill a guy sitting still on a door

let alone crack him

somehow he got masters

[true ravine]

everybody have bad days

[teal moth]

:copeium:

[bright elm]

we all whiff

happens

[white thicket]

S12?

Lots of people got masters ratting it out lol

Either that or they could just have a bad day

Rank isn't a good representation of skill level imo

[teal moth]

probs

[white thicket]

Just remember at the end of the day if you're playing with randoms

All you can control is your own gameplay

And that's that

[astral pebble]

yes I got that one out of crafting mats. I mean, ive gotten shards since then and I have nothing to spend them on

[white thicket]

So instead of analyzing the mistakes of others us, the solo players must analyze ourselves

[teal moth]

Mmm yes

My bad for relying on my teammate to kill a guy sitting still on my door

I guess i'll pretend teammates don't exist they are just dummys to absord damage

[white thicket]

I mean that's how most solo players play LOL

Use your teammates to distract the enemies then find an angle in which you can shoot the enemy and they can't react in time

[mellow kestrel]

you cant 1v1 in range anymore btw for those who havent realized

you respawn with nothing if you die

due to no self res

very sad

[quaint karma]

saw it coming

💀 💀 💀

[unborn spear]

you can just change legends

and ur back to full hp with your loadout

[white thicket]

Huh

I'll try it later

[unborn spear]

or wait I might be dumb

if you dont have self res

do you not go down?

[white thicket]

Does anyone have any tips how to practice team fights like 3v3 with a squad

Since I usually solo but this ranked I think I'm going to try to get a team and we have no synergy

[bright elm]

no u just die

[unborn spear]

oh thats dumb

[bright elm]

play with your teammates, try not to get isolated into a 1v1 if possible unless you know for sure you'll win

[astral pebble]

lol!!

fucking rekt

[bright elm]

dongie

thoughts on volt being back on ground

[near drift]

40% more hackers

[teal moth]

40% more hackers

❤️

i love ASSISTED GAMING

LOOOOVE

[white thicket]

I have a lot of confidence in my 1v1's the issue is that I don't do the first part and play with my teammates

It's probably bad but I have a solo mindset

where I just play the game to keep myself alive and limit encounters to 1v1s

[teal moth]

Don't play with your team

[nimble stag]

this season pass suqs

[teal moth]

at this point if u solo q

I dont trust anyone that's not a pro

[nimble stag]

TT skins?

Who uses that trash gun

[teal moth]

pred trail smoking me off angles and shit

[nimble stag]

when 3030 is omega buffed and g7 is back

[white thicket]

No i mean I want to start playing with a team

I have good teammates available I just can't properly play with them

[placid root]

😳

Uploading so I don't have to slam the clip into Streamable

[nimble stag]

did you put your game under a paper weight

why is it so squished

[placid root]

I'm a stretched res enjoyer 😎

[bright elm]

damn they're fucking terrible

[placid root]

ye lmao

[bright elm]

1v2 in their face

[placid root]

I played that terribly and still won

[bright elm]

yet u took minimal damage for the most part

💀

good job

show these shitters whats up

[teal moth]

damn i forgot how bad scout ironsights is

[bright elm]

yea they're fat as fuck

havent picked up a scout yet

[little verge]

Oh god, is the BP G7 still bugged?

I better change it so I don't blow out my eardrums.

[mellow kestrel]

2tap eva 😩

bro melted

also

"oh, kraber"

picks up a mastiff XD

[placid root]

yeah, I know

My brain was shitting itself

[teal moth]

i guess you can't fight on KC

every fight it just a 4th party

5th party sometimes

[mellow kestrel]

bro hit the biggest bot strafe but we like r9 200's 👍

[placid root]

Niiiiice

[teal moth]

Play KC ranked and keep your sanity challenge (impossible)

i can't dude

I'm losing it

WHO THE FUCK

THOUGHT KC RANKED WAS A GOOD IDEEA

[placid root]

Actually impossible

[mellow kestrel]

reminder that strafe aiming is mega underrated

learning strafe aim beyond just strictly mirror/antimirror is almost essential tbh

i see so many apex players just trying to antimirror 24/7, learning all forms of strafe aim is much better to me

[hasty cedar]

zone closes way too quick

[bright elm]

of course

the basis of strafe aim is to maximize damage output

above all else

but that really isn't viable in most situations

where you're going to be in multiple fights

learning how to dodge

by implementing forms of bias

is important if you want to become a great aimer

[mellow kestrel]

yep

or well

important if you wanna aim well and not take as much damage as you're giving

[bright elm]

yea

the one i love doing the most to people

is just going diagonal and backwards

[mellow kestrel]

LMAO yes

[bright elm]

diagonal to anti mirror and when they switch to mirror me

i just go backwards

shits gas

[mellow kestrel]

+1

99.99% of mnk players in apex lose their shit if you do that

[wicked river]

Or controller

[mellow kestrel]

as long as you dont randomly meet some quake demon you're fine

[wicked river]

Hit em with the stop

[mellow kestrel]

"the stop" is more effective against mnk imo

controller players dont react anyways 4head

[little verge]

I love how many times I see someone with the S12 master badge and the previous rank is rookie

[wicked river]

Anyway does anyone even actually care about the laser attachment

[mellow kestrel]

meh

[wicked river]

Inb4 we get gold laser turning guns into smart pistols

[mellow kestrel]

i dont really see the point of it, SMG hipfire was fine how it was

but its not the end of the world imo

like it wont make that much of a difference

in a fight

[wicked river]

Is car still the curbstomper

Or is it volt now

[mellow kestrel]

volt

[wicked river]

Ez

[mellow kestrel]

CAR is good ofc but id take the volt over it fs

[wicked river]

Respawn nerfing car in the most irrelevant way possible

[mellow kestrel]

yeah

or well

a lot of ppl actually struggled with the recoil i think 💀

[wicked river]

Smoothing tho

[mellow kestrel]

yep

[wicked river]

Also they replaced barrel with laser anyway

Outstanding move

[mellow kestrel]

and regardless if you just pull a little harder than normal the sprays end up nearly the same anyways

CAR doesnt take laser btw

incase you didnt know

it's the only smg that doesnt

[wicked river]

Yeah since barrel got removed

Like it mattered because you ads

Shrimply confusion

[mellow kestrel]

tho if you dont want to ADS, laser alternator/prowler lets you hipfire in essentially any situation now

[wicked river]

How about I just hipfire with piercer wingman

[mellow kestrel]

running laser alternator and just hipfiring for minimal visual clutter might be the play idk

[wicked river]

Laser re45 with the hammers

[mellow kestrel]

scary stuff

also its nice hearing the piercer wingman again

sounds so sick

[wicked river]

They didn't nerf the base headshot on any of the piercer guns

[mellow kestrel]

nah but its somewhat fine now

its not as busted as old skullpiercer

wingman

[true ravine]

volt is op and wingman needs a nerf on headshot %

[mellow kestrel]

volt isnt OP

[wicked river]

They just gave it piercer

And it still has boosted so that's funny

Senti with piercer wingman

Start griefing

Is senti tempo the same or nerfed

[teal moth]

everything is broken rn

even the map

[mellow kestrel]

i think its the same, just included in the gun now

[wicked river]

When is the map not broken

[wicked river]

Omw to become senti main

[mellow kestrel]

based

W gun

[astral pebble]

OK what teh fuck. i updated the game last night. today I click paly apex, it goes to verifying game files

then goes back to play button

[wicked river]

Senti rampart doing 151 heads on drop

[astral pebble]

been doing this shit for 3 times already

[teal moth]

i think KC needs to be removed

that's what im thinking

Instead of pouring resources into saving a dead beat map

maybe make a new one

[teal moth]

i really wanna shake the had of the guy who added KC to the ranked pool

such an amazing human being

[mellow kestrel]

it seems that ranked KC will always be ranked KC

no matter how much they change it

💀

[honest heron]

New map next season tho maybe

Well no idea when it releases, but it shouldn't be too far off

[little verge]

New map now with 50x more ambient noises for whatever reason that absolutely no one cares about and all the things you hate about most maps!

[honest heron]

How fast are rotates on new kc

[little verge]

Honestly zero difference really. Only a few spots are less likely to get shot at by multiple angles now.

The redeploys, map size and density of POIs is still 90% of the reason it's fast.

[honest heron]

Unlucky

Well, valk nerf should slow it down a bit at least

[hasty cedar]

I think the ring changes were overtuned

also

via reddit 🤣

[floral crag]

jesus

[hasty cedar]

pred is going to be 30-40k minimum mid split

[honest heron]

oh my god

3030 charged headshot with skullpiercer is 120 dmg

ewwww

[astral pebble]

imagine picking up 3030

actually i grabbed one earlier hoping to pickup a charge rifle next but got aimbotted before that happened

[mellow kestrel]

Jesus

[honest heron]

138 after vantage mark

:DDD

[wicked river]

Where rampart wall

[honest heron]

need 2 people

wall despawns after switching legend

[wicked river]

Fuck

What about mark

[honest heron]

138 with mark

[wicked river]

I mean does mark clear

When changing

[honest heron]

oh

probably

it doesnt last long

[wicked river]

10s ez

Just speedrun it

[honest heron]

164

jesus fucking christ

[wicked river]

214 total

[honest heron]

164 for wall + mark i mean

148 with just wall

why does the kraber exist again

[wicked river]

Marking shot does 50 🗿

[honest heron]

oh

true

[wicked river]

Almost enough to budget krab a red evo no helmet

[honest heron]

also smgs are just lmfao

busted beyond belief

[wicked river]

Full charge piercer does 79 to purple helm

[hasty cedar]

cheeky is a beast

haha

[honest heron]

hasnt even been 24 hrs

[hasty cedar]

this season is hilarious

[honest heron]

lmao

[wicked river]

1.54m legend tokens

Pov you removing scaling on kill rp

[honest heron]

oh yea that dmg is with no helmet since it was on dummies

would have to apply helm resistances

[wicked river]

Rampart amp and vantage mark are both 15% right

[honest heron]

think so

first match of the day i land on a car

how i've missed you

[wicked river]

Ok ramp is 20%

[honest heron]

hahaha

[wicked river]

Mark is 15%

[honest heron]

relic is nuts

absolute chaos

i had 4 teams in my building

[wicked river]

also vantage rifle does 75 headshot you fuckin wot

[honest heron]

yep

150 on second shot

[wicked river]

🗿

[honest heron]

[wicked river]

Ok so unless this maths is completely wrong

Charged piercer 30 with mark and amp does 108 to purple helmet

[honest heron]

sounds about right

[little verge]

So I got two kills, end of match screen shows 0 kills 680 damage

I sincerely don't know what's even going on with this season lol

[honest heron]

bro this map is chaos rn

i got 6th partied in containment

i also got domed by a skullpiercer wingman shortly after

[astral pebble]

i picked up wingman for 5 seconds then I found sniper rifle next to it

ez decision

[wicked river]

Senti > wingman

[astral pebble]

senti = nice carrier for sniper scope and stock, nothign else

[wicked river]

Wow

Not a gamer

Shoulda given senti piercer

Woulda been funni

[astral pebble]

should have put it in care package

so I dont have to see it

[wicked river]

Inb4 they switch senti and kraber

[astral pebble]

bocek and rampage in box, not even gonna miss them

[proven pulsar]

anyone else getting this error

[astral pebble]

where are the packs in game UI now?

i leveld up level 1->2 and it said I got one pack

i dont see it anywhere? lol

also what about all the packs promised from > lv 500

[hasty cedar]

Yeah I can't open my packs

I'm not really feeling the smg changes and ARs feel slightly more clunky on the hip fire

[astral pebble]

the whole game is fucked, hacks are already out since day fucking 1, my lobbies are full bullet-avoiding aimbots again

[alpine trail]

They aren’t cheating

[honest heron]

Read the bio, friend

[wicked river]

[alpine trail]

Pathfinder new passive finally

[floral crag]

its about time

[alpine trail]

bug causing legends getting their abilities swapped around in pubs rn

i need to see gibby with stim

[honest heron]

I am imagining Gibby yelling "HAHA, THAT'S GOT A KICK" in his accent

[wicked river]

That's traumatising

Also how like didn't gibby and path get 0 changes

[sonic pasture]

yeah, either a hack or a one in a million visual glitch

[oak veldt]

is ranked better this season

[wicked river]

You get +900 and don't rank up

[oak veldt]

serious answer tho

[astral pebble]

yeah totally. thats why none of my bullets land, despite firing them right at them. yeah ok.

[stray valley]

@astral pebble Did you ever fix your game verifying over and over? Friend is getting the same issue

[astral pebble]

yeah i installed the dumb EA Play app

it worked there

im hoping they will fix origin client so I can delete this shit

or maybe I'll delete origin, apex is literally the only game I have installed

someone said it worked when changing DNS t o google

i find that absolutely bullshit because that makes no sense lol

cuz what the hell would DNS have to do with file checking.

[nimble stag]

I don't even know what i can learn at this point. Solo Q feels impossible

[sonic pasture]

someone on reddit said that reinstalling origin helped

[nimble stag]

Like actually idk anymore

Game jist feels like luck

[sonic pasture]

My goal this season is to do good at no-fill duos

in asia, which server is good and alive when it comes to duo lobbies?

[nimble stag]

I don't think I've improved in the last 100 hours

[sonic pasture]

but while playing at 50 fps and a broken scroll wheel. so no tap strafing and zip line techs 😦

[sonic pasture]

what rank do you place yourself in?

[near drift]

opinions on eye focus training?

[bright elm]

not a huge difference

[nimble stag]

Fucking recruit probably

[sonic pasture]

don't be too hard on yourself, mate 🙂

[nimble stag]

Idk probably silver

I just don't see how you can get out of silver

[sonic pasture]

let me know if you wnat to do 1vs1 in apex anytime. i want to get better too

[nimble stag]

1v1s now suck

Have to rekit everytime

[sonic pasture]

wait, did they change something this season? in s13, you just ahve to switch legends and you will be back to ful health

[nimble stag]

It just feels like all i lesrn is that situatiom suck

[bright elm]

self res removed

[nimble stag]

Like especislly on KC

I don't lesrn anything getting 5th partied

[sonic pasture]

wow. thanks respawn

[bright elm]

it's good

lol

the only downside is 1v1's

being fucked

but idc

[sonic pasture]

on one hand i am glad it got removed but 1vs1 has gone to shit

[nimble stag]

I just feel like every game i play isn't my fault lol
Or that i couldn't have done anything better

[sonic pasture]

may i know how many hours you have in apex?

[nimble stag]

280

[bright elm]

probably false

[sonic pasture]

that is why. you will start to embrace the third party legends soon. you will have to play legends that can counter that if it really bothers you

[wicked river]

Good change

Don't need to give gibby the gold bag anymore

[sonic pasture]

how will you give gibby the gold bag when there aren't any gibby players left

[nimble stag]

I mean probably but i don't see how moving slightly betyer

Or shooting slightly better

Means anything lol

[wicked river]

Think better

[nimble stag]

Ok

[sonic pasture]

people hate kc for a reason. i don't know how the current map looks but third partying in kc is easy af

[bright elm]

do you hot drop

because if you do

maybe avoid landing in the middle of everyone

[sonic pasture]

so, don't worry. not every death is because of your own mistake 🙂 @nimble stag

[near drift]

are you speaking from experience?

[bright elm]

yea

didn't really do anything if im being realistic

[near drift]

okay then, was about to hop on that

[bright elm]

@near drift like unless you have a really hard time focusing

[wicked river]

Don't land hot

Land next to hot

[bright elm]

no point in doing them

[wicked river]

Shrimple

Want to fight like 1 or 2 squads on drop then wkey to fights

[bright elm]

^^

like i said

don't land in the middle between all squads within the area

[wicked river]

Unless you're good

[bright elm]

that's just asking to get third, fourth, and fifth partied

[bright elm]

if u have aimbot

go ahead

[wicked river]

Just be aceu

[sonic pasture]

*unless you don't care about dying million times... because being good isn't going to help a lot when you are fighting 5 teams

[wicked river]

Thats where your braincells come in

Or yk volt

[nimble stag]

Not by choice

[bright elm]

being good means you can avoid that from happening 85% of the time

lol

[sonic pasture]

tell your teammates during lobby selection time that you are still learning the game and that you don't want to hot drop. if they still want to hot drop either quit the game or land next to hot and try your best. don't follow your teammates and die in 10 seconds. it is a waste of time imo

[nimble stag]

I just don't want to waste my time ya know. A loss is useful

Just this game really feels like i'm never lesrning

Which

Is because i refuse to let myself coolnoff

Which helps

My bad

[sonic pasture]

you said that you aren't learning anything. so how is a loss useful if you aren't learning anything?

[nimble stag]

Because I can learn something from it

I just am too tilted to try

That is the core of the issue

Apex is just a really hard game too

[honest heron]

taiwan

im oce and i no fill duo there

[sonic pasture]

thanks

[bright elm]

you can watch this video and determine if you want to eye train or not

https://youtu.be/hRDtU1PQ8Eg

personally i didn't really see a difference but that's me

[bold swan]

the fifth party in kc 💀

[bright elm]

it's crazy how many third parties i've experienced

hell even 4th parties

today

[nimble stag]

what would you all suggest to focus on to low elo players

[bright elm]

mechanics

focusing on mechanics can get you pretty far

[nimble stag]

Not just aim? I assume

[bright elm]

nope

aim + using movement effectively in fights

i also said mechanics because as you play, you'll gain the experience and knowledge for more and more situations

and what to do

since you're new

it's easier to develop mechanics

imo

[wicked river]

Mechanics won't save you from a deadslide tho

[bright elm]

deadslide in wraith q max velocity

[nimble stag]

ngl

I haven't deadslided in awhile

[wicked river]

Deadslide because the vantage decides to poke me

[nimble stag]

I always be hitting 3

[bright elm]

i always deadslide

[frigid bramble]

please guys i’m on vacation rn i can’t play the new season so somebody tell me…. how’s the volt ?!?!?!?!

[bright elm]

as good as before

[frigid bramble]

it’s what i’m most fuxkin excited for holy shhhhit

[bright elm]

i always picked up the volt

every game

[frigid bramble]

fuck yeah!!!!

[bright elm]

[frigid bramble]

i’m so keen it’s my favourite weapon

[bright elm]

so far

really fun season

just based off the first day alone

[frigid bramble]

volt over r9 every day tbh

[bright elm]

a lot more weapon variety as well

[frigid bramble]

that’s really good then, i’m very excited to play it. how’s the new legend too

[bright elm]

vantage is strong

but the people i went against

don't know how to play her

so

she seems pretty weak

her ult is something else tho

https://youtu.be/3vYDpkN2eD8

[vestal axle]

she seems decent. i wish she had better air control out of her q but it's fine

https://youtu.be/obVGuJpsNds

i've been enjoying her kit so far tho

[sonic pasture]

Guys, are you guys still able to do instant slide jump?

I never tried doing it in the previous seasons. i am following mokey's guide but I just can't seem to be able to do it

[honest heron]

yes

[honest heron]

dunno if u already knew this but when double jumping she just moves in the direction you look

so you can 180 and shit

no need to really tap strafe out of it

[vestal axle]

ohh

gotta try that out

no i didnt know thx

[honest heron]

ye its really good

npnp

lots of untapped potential here i think

[sonic pasture]

Don't know what I am doing wrong then

hold one gun out.
start running
immediately swap to the other gun
crouch + jump (basically crouch slide)

[honest heron]

you dont need to swap to a gun

[wicked river]

Crouch and hold sprint

W for the required time

[honest heron]

you just press crouch and jump when at a high enough velocity

unless you mean the one where you start crouched

[wicked river]

O that

Wait which one

Confusion

[honest heron]

there's the instant "faide" slide jump and just a normal instant slide jump

which allows you to skip the anim

[sonic pasture]

not talking about crouch slide jump. i tried that too. but i am not able to do it like him. that guy does it so instant which is bonkers

[honest heron]

ok so

hold crouch, w and sprint

after half a second, let go of crouch then press crouch + jump

the timing is pretty tight

but that's all there is to it

you have to be sprinting as you stop crouching

[sonic pasture]

i have auto-sprint on. will that mess this up?

[honest heron]

not sure, possibly

try turning it off and check

i can do it consistently with auto sprint off

[wicked river]

Auto sprint is ass in apex anyway

[honest heron]

unless you are talking about skip jumping

https://youtu.be/WKQcYCRg_lo

this one

in which case i cant help you, because its frame perfect lol

nobody uses this

[wicked river]

🗿

[honest heron]

i have never seen a scenario where this would be preferred over any other form of slide jump

[sonic pasture]

yeah talking about this.

[honest heron]

i see

well yes auto sprint would probably break it

https://clips.twitch.tv/FaintRichKoupreyGivePLZ-X3uNFruLthBmq5tP

bro LMAO

[wicked river]

Valk ult looking kinda different ngl

Also doesn't that mean her first jump functions like ash ult

[honest heron]

sort of

its infinite vertical height as long as echo has something to collide on, i think

not sure

[cunning crane]

can someone help me??

Last season I didn't play for the first split, so it just gave me gold, second split I got to diamond, now it's only given me the season 13 gold badge and not the diamond badge, why is this?? Wtf is going on?

[honest heron]

bug

[cunning crane]

it's a bug?

how do I undo it?

[honest heron]

you dont

[cunning crane]

what the fuck??

[honest heron]

many people are not getting their rewards

just have to wait

[cunning crane]

oh

[wicked river]

[wicked river]

Yeah so same as ash ult

[sonic pasture]

i really need to stop playing this game. the audio is doing me in

[viscid hare]

any1 just randomly have terrible stutters on kings canyon

[sonic pasture]

i get around 100 fps average normally but when I engage in a fight it drops to around 50 fps. how do i solve this?

[viscid hare]

never stuttered before in apex

and now it'll happen like 5-6+times a minute

[sonic pasture]

i had this issue but it was because of background slideshow in windows. do you have that enabled?

[viscid hare]

no

also its literally just this map

ive played other maps in unranked before

but never played this map

and its just fucking awful

any other time im basically locked at my fps cap

and do not stutter

[frigid bramble]

my friend when trying to update apex ir says game files missing

anyone else had this problem?

[viscid hare]

verify integrity then

or just uninstall reinstall

[woven helm]

jeje https://youtu.be/9fprJe_8d-s

[shrewd sapphire]

its a good way to initiate a wallbounce

[sonic pasture]

Yeah, i had it. You have to reinstall Origin

I really think that the audio in this season is the worst ever. I couldn't even make out which floor my enemies were in

[sudden owl]

kc ranked third parties

shoot ur gun and u get sandwiched by 10 teams

[quaint karma]

yup

[mellow kestrel]

server shutting down in the middle of a decent game

sick

[tidal bough]

solo pubs right now

[quaint karma]

saw so many 3stacks yesterday in pubs

even running seer and shit

all 20bomb players too

[mellow kestrel]

i just met those guys

my teammate literally aped and 1v2ed them

[quaint karma]

sounds like roller

[mellow kestrel]

they are roller aswell

i missed a single bullet in my volt spray against that guys teammate and died

[quaint karma]

💀 💀 💀 💀 💀

fair and balanced input

[mellow kestrel]

yeah

[quaint karma]

i gotta be like the best player in the world

they gotta be decent

its stupid

gotta outposition them ig

[mellow kestrel]

yeah

like if i dont perfectly predict him i die

can't even react as it doesnt keep DPS high enough

[alpine trail]

fory isn't controller

the ash

unless he went back to controller for some reason

[abstract thunder]

would appreciate opinions on this https://youtu.be/2ry93ei7Frk

[mellow kestrel]

yeah his friend was

i didnt fight fory so idk

[alpine trail]

yea scotty is a usual low sens abuser

fory moved to mnk he was doing p good in ranked when i played w him

[mellow kestrel]

yep i saw that first hand

💀

nice

respect that

[lethal wraith]

damn people so colorful now

[teal moth]

🤓 but you have your whle arm

bet top 20 preds are gonna be like

15 assisted gamers

and 5 pcs

[mellow kestrel]

I never got this argument tbh

Like yeah thats why we have like 12 extra muscles or some shit that needs to be trained

[proven pulsar]

anyone else with brightness issues

just took a fight inside a building

it was super dark

couldnt see shit

[mellow kestrel]

Idk KC lighting seems fine to me

Decent visual clarity

[bold swan]

ring changes do be molesting my ass 💀

[alpine trail]

anyone here play apex on stretch res?

[teal moth]

cause it makes no sense that argument

[alpine trail]

a lot of people i think

i do

[honest heron]

i tried it

it fun sometimes but i always go back to native cos more info

[turbid condor]

anyone stuck loading

[honest heron]

yeah i was about to ask the same

just stuck at splash screen

[turbid condor]

SO CRINGE

KralRindo (@kralrindo)

Steam Apex down, it's not just you

Twitter · Aug 10, 2022, 5:11 PM

[honest heron]

lmao

[bright elm]

lighting seems better

i was able to see yesterday

for the first time

[little verge]

Yeah, I've been mad beaming in ranked. Something feels different.

[honest heron]

its much easier to see ppl now cos its so bright

[little verge]

Plus the ground loot feels a lot better too, so that helps lol

Now unless I land P2020/G7 without a sight I'm pretty content.

[honest heron]

volt on floor is amazing

everyone was saying the laser sight would make roller op

but idk

i feel like thanks to lasers i am winning a lot more duels

cos smg strafe speed is so good

[nimble stag]

Anyone use package rampage

How is it

[little verge]

I actually think laser is an indirect roller nerf actually

Wider FOV, less slowdown to work with the rotational to keep on target

[honest heron]

i thought i would miss barel stabilisers but volt is so good it doesnt even need one

yeah thats true

volt with 2x and purple laser is so versatile

[little verge]

Stabs have always been weird on SMGs because 99% of the time you're fighting up close and moving so you'll likely negate all of the recoil with smoothing

Plus that strafe speed works really well with recoil smoothing

[honest heron]

It was always good on the car

[nimble stag]

Volt'a fire rate helps wirh range

[little verge]

Yeah, CAR was a bit tougher to manage mid range without. Now that it can't take a laser either I'm hoping all the R99 needs is a little buff.

[nimble stag]

I should test volt recoil and car now

[honest heron]

cp rampage is fine

[little verge]

SMG pool feels better, but not perfect yet

[nimble stag]

I feel like i have a handle on r99

[honest heron]

its not that broken

[nimble stag]

Recoil

[honest heron]

r99 needs a buff

[nimble stag]

Alternator laser is pretty funny

[honest heron]

volt is just superior in every way

[nimble stag]

I know the alt gets outclassed but it's hard to deny how far a laser makes you able to hipfire

[bright elm]

alternator gets outclassed so fast

[nimble stag]

It do

[bright elm]

but early game its a beast

[honest heron]

Volt off rip

[nimble stag]

Yall think the prowler will be a decent pick now?

[honest heron]

I win the poi

[nimble stag]

It always felt more likena shotty

[honest heron]

Prowler was always good

[nimble stag]

But now with a laser

True

[honest heron]

It's a sleeper

[nimble stag]

I bet ig you could use custom crosshairs people would use it more

[little verge]

Alt is ol' reliable

[honest heron]

Reshade crosshair

[little verge]

Nothing stellar but just good enough in every way to still be useful

[nimble stag]

I meant like make the crosshair small

[honest heron]

Yes

You can do that

Idk what my loadout is gonna be this season

Maybe senti/volt

[nimble stag]

Wtf

How

My loadout will depend if i'm Maggster or not

[honest heron]

Wdym how

[stray valley]

https://streamable.com/l00470

[nimble stag]

How can you make it smaller
All i saw was color change

[stray valley]

Skip to 0:15 ^

[nimble stag]

Also if i play Maggs my loadout will probably be old reliable
301/PK maybe G7/EVA

[honest heron]

By using reshade crosshairs

You can make custom ones

[teal moth]

It's controller season ong

Smg + ape meta

yay

i lov eva

its so balanced

[ashen trench]

takes a while dont it

[whole dagger]

lasersights need to be reworked asap
i am op now

[vague nexus]

need to level the battlepass to get the xp bonus

[violet sphinx]

i hate this wraith nerf so much

i wanna refund my heirloom atp im tired of wraith

takes 5 seconds for me to run away like by that time i couldve already gotten one magged

[teal moth]

i mean you legit walked into his shots

by pressing W

Eva's rly hard to use idk i think it's balanced

But yeah you just got roller strafed =]]

[violet sphinx]

also u need to cap ur frames cause the game looks choppy af

[teal moth]

That's the recording

[violet sphinx]

tf is controller strafe

oh

[teal moth]

30 fps type beat

[violet sphinx]

is it like fn where controller has better strafe in a way

[teal moth]

They are so bad at it

they are good

best way to explain it

[violet sphinx]

so unpredictable

[teal moth]

Like there if he aims in 1 spot he just hits all his shots

[violet sphinx]

who should be my 2nd main cause im done maining wraith when her abilities dont even help me and by the time they do im dead

[violet sphinx]

ohhh

i like horizon rn but i need someone else for ranked

i wish there was a way to refund heirloom cause i regret wraiths

like a day after i got it i got tired of wriath

[teal moth]

seer

[nimble stag]

Can yall hit anyone with wing iron

[teal moth]

or new castle

[nimble stag]

I xan't see with it

[teal moth]

same

[turbid condor]

eh

[quaint karma]

eva is busted ngl

id take eva over mastiff

purple bolt eva is insane

shit just melts people

[violet sphinx]

i need to figure out my loadout rn

for ranked

i hate these low ranks tho my teammates cant do shit

not a single person can hold their own and its getting annoying

[ashen trench]

???????

[quaint karma]

he means her Q nerf from 50 seasons ago ig

[sudden owl]

Car is really good honestly despite the nerf the recoil is a lot easier to control

[teal moth]

How do you even buff the r99?

DMG buff?

recoil reduction?

Hipfire acc?

those are i think all the options they have

Fire-rate buff would just be silly i think

Also PRO-TIP

Disable ur fuckin diamond trail if you dont wanna be landed on

[violet sphinx]

dmg buff imo

car takes less practice to get good with and be consistent with while doing more dpm

volt and alternator both have no recoil yet still can p much 1 mag like the r9

[violet sphinx]

car recoil throws me off in such a weird way

[violet sphinx]

yeah its still annoying to me

[dusky summit]

for nvidia

users

[little verge]

R99 should either have a slight damage or slight ROF tweak to make it CQC spray machine, CAR should have moderate DPS comparably but better capacity. The real problem is what do we do with the Hemlock now that Prowler is basically better in every way?

[alpine trail]

prowler can’t 3 burst from 100m away

but i agree hemlok worse in everything but range

[little verge]

Yeah, though once you get to that range you're basically better off with Flatty/301/3030

Plus the Hemmy already had bad hipfire and ARs getting a slight reduction again just hurts it further lol

[teal moth]

launch volt

was legit AR

with smg speed

[little verge]

Launch volt also during a time of 25 less EHP and low profile, Christ that was awful

Imagine if the community didn't shoot that change down, roller would be even more insane at this stage.

[amber holly]

akguem tem treino para apexx?

[honest heron]

So nice not seeing a billion master trails this season

The skies are clean again

[wicked river]

[vague nexus]

even diamond trails are rare

or uncommon

[turbid condor]

wing pk r3 pk flat pk

what's what I'm running

maybe sometimes volt pk

[wicked river]

Volt g7 on vantage

[frigid bramble]

haven’t played yet, but my combo is 100% volt eva, volt wingman, or volt r9. so keennnn

volt city baby

[stone kite]

Lucky i have either masters or preds in every game

And im not even good

Im the bot of the bot lobbies

[honest heron]

Then you don't have them every game

Because the odds of you seeing them regularly is very low

[quaint karma]

thats not how you use that word

nvm actually

LMAO

i thought he said luckily

[honest heron]

Statistically it cannot happen, there aren't enough preds and masters from last season to populate servers

Unless your server pop is like zero or something

[stone kite]

Im over exaggerating

But i still meet them a lot

[honest heron]

I doubt it

Odds are they are using old S3 trails, last season there was only a couple thousand masters in the world

[quaint karma]

havent really played pubs but i see a lot of diamond trails in gold rn

[honest heron]

No trails in pubs so far

Makes sense for gold because all the diamonds are there

[quaint karma]

gold is so fucking easy rn

literally gained 1000+ rp today

[honest heron]

Is it free

I gotta try it

[quaint karma]

well my duo is really good

we just stomping servers

[honest heron]

I have been hesitant to try cos I suck at kc

[quaint karma]

yeah kc is terrible

[cunning crane]

just got back from work

time to aim train

[quaint karma]

you have to finish your fights instantly

[honest heron]

Maybe if I find someone to grind with regularly

[quaint karma]

rampart and newcastle cringe comp

👍

[honest heron]

I've just been farming pubs with vantage

So many charge riflers

[quaint karma]

imma play pubs when i get to diamond

[honest heron]

So cringe

[quaint karma]

yeah theres a lot of aids shit rn

i cant stand the scout

[honest heron]

The volt feels great

[quaint karma]

yeah if i use an smg its a volt

always

usually i just have an eva as secondary

gun is way too good to not use

[honest heron]

Volt with 2x is basically an AR

[dull falcon]

i need to fix my tracking

[random thistle]

It didn't break, it's a feature :^)

[astral pebble]

https://clips.twitch.tv/SuspiciousAuspiciousInternStoneLightning-QLYx1YZttF39BC3O
https://clips.twitch.tv/ObedientAwkwardCrowArgieB8-CVnoDOVl0xQVTprU

wow, amazing. fucking poor indie studio with no staff to take care of the hacker problem

[violet sphinx]

respawn is such a small indie studio

[astral pebble]

I know, unbelievable

[violet sphinx]

might try running volt eva compared to r3 eva

[astral pebble]

volt is back on the floor? I guess one more gun I have to actively avoid

[violet sphinx]

yeah i avoid every gun except for the p20 and sentinel tbh

only viable guns are p20 sentinel and charge rifle

[alpine trail]

3 stack preds in pubs diff breed

kings canyon unplayable

[teal moth]

?????

wtf did you post dude

[astral pebble]

my typical match, and hackers downing me

[teal moth]

no one was cheating there 💀

[alpine trail]

bro said hacks after missing a whole mag

[teal moth]

I think he's trollin'

[violet sphinx]

nah its just dongie

[alpine trail]

no jokes tho kings canyon is unplayable

[teal moth]

my guy looks like Artificial inteligence

[alpine trail]

theres 3 teams around every corner

[teal moth]

openAI type shit

[alpine trail]

might have to skip this split on ranked

my mind cant handle kc

[astral pebble]

yeah why do you think it missed, because they were hacking. yesterday I played for 2 hours, literally everyone I ever come across was actively avoiding my bullets or they weren't even registering despite hitting right in the center of whoever.

[teal moth]

Legit keep sanity on KC ranked challenge (impossible)

[astral pebble]

i emptied like 4 mags into someone at fucking face to face close range and none of hte bullets hit, they punched me down to death
