apex

[little verge]

Eesh

[quaint karma]

arena pub enemies

nice

ok they didnt play mozam first round

facing them again

3stack, coolio

[teal moth]

dude

[fair trellis]

thats impressivec

if soloq

[near drift]

how was your mm experience in diamond?

[wintry cypress]

Cant wait for split 2

Relatively playable map

Maybe this time i can actually climb diamond

[white thicket]

Ehhh

You're jade and not diamond?

[wintry cypress]

I mean in apex lel

[teal moth]

fine

lobbies we're mixed

masters and preds

sometimes i get duo masters player on my team

sometimes d4 + p4

overall not bad

[teal moth]

Look name 💀

[near drift]

climb diamond

okay i want opinions

do yall think diamonds should be in pred lobbies?

seems like opinions are mixed on this

[teal moth]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[near drift]

on one hand, the point is to be better than your peers and move to the next rank no?

on the other hand, worse players would make it into masters

worse than rn anyway

[wintry cypress]

Idk, on one hand the extra experience of getting in pred lobbies is nice, but on the other getting stomped on and deranking is not ideal

But ig if u derank you dont actually belong in dia

[near drift]

i dont know man

[near drift]

if you derank from dying to preds does this make sense tho

[wintry cypress]

Idk i see it as a learning experience, but youre definitely right

[wintry cypress]

Technically no

[near drift]

you die to diamonds and derank

you dont belong in diamond

i agree

whatever, i solod so much last split i dont even want to touch ranked rn

[wintry cypress]

I mean ig as dia you should go against other dias, but im guessing there arent enough of them

[near drift]

there are enough diamonds

[wintry cypress]

Then wtf is respawn doing lmao

[near drift]

there arent enough masters/preds to make 2 min queues is the issue

[wintry cypress]

Oh

[near drift]

no idea

[wintry cypress]

Yeah i forgor

I mean ig i wouldnt mind getting into a master/pred game every once in a while

[near drift]

@teal moth how do you feel about queuing for 7+ minutes for tight ranked games?

[fair trellis]

matchmaking in brs will never satisfy everyone

just impossible due to lobby size

[near drift]

i think its possible

just not easy

if you stick to the fundamental point of ranked

its possible

this whole ranked affair in games im pretty sure was adopted from og chess ranking system

i just dont see how longer queue times are so scary for respawn, this is literally the only game where the highest rank can get instaqueues

[placid root]

Went to take a shower in another building, dont ask why. Slipped on wet grass and fell on concrete. I took 98 fall damage 😭

Left hand is fucked up

[near drift]

wasted

[placid root]

no Apex for a couple days 😭

[wintry cypress]

The alcohol hittin too hard

[teal moth]

that's fie with me

10 min queues?

20 min queues?

fine with me

[placid root]

no alcohol, that's the sad part

💀

[teal moth]

only issue is the way apex works

[wintry cypress]

Damn bro

[teal moth]

it kinda sucks dying off drop and getting sent back for a 20 min queue

[placid root]

was just cold as fuck getting out the shower, tried to run back. Didn't go well

Funny how I slipped right at the concrete part of the ground and fell on it

ran like 20 meters on wet grass and fell right at the end, fml

[near drift]

20min is a bit of a stretch

dont think apex mm can ever take that long

[teal moth]

yaeh

the nature of the game

dosen't allow that

[teal moth]

Best tip for solo q is to play like you have main characther syndrome

[white thicket]

ight imma take that tip to heart

I'm tryna solo to masters rn

is horizon the best character or just your favorite?

I'm in diamond

[alpine trail]

idk she is pretty insane ive been maining her for like 3 seasons

not sure if best but def top3 for solo q

[little verge]

She's def A tier. Good tactical, good passive, strong ult.

[teal moth]

Horizon is good for 1v9 if you have the mechanics for her

I've been maining her since i started

If you have an affinity for another legend use that, however i do think she's powerful for carrying fights

however you gotta remember you have little escape tools compared to pathy / octane

So you gotta win your fights

Check my vods if you want, maybe you can learn something

Mainly it's about how you pace the fights.

[white thicket]

ok will do

I think horizon is my best solo character

I main valk because I have played in some tourneys

[teal moth]

Then play horizon

[white thicket]

and my team needs it

but I usually solo with her but

this season

has been shit

soloing with valk lmao

[teal moth]

This season is fight meta

[white thicket]

what's your channel name?

[teal moth]

yeah valk is kinda troll

i think i have it linked

[white thicket]

twitch didn't load on the uhhh profile link

[teal moth]

https://www.twitch.tv/calamitousvx

[white thicket]

it's still linked under sewageddweller

[teal moth]

yeaaah

changed it

Another tip is go for explosive games don't go for consistency with this mm

+450 rp is better then going for consitent games

[white thicket]

Alright

[teal moth]

holy twitch vod quality can be so shit

[white thicket]

yeah lol

don't worry though I'm watching it

[teal moth]

ah yeah random tip your probably know

if you play evo

eva

put your 2x on it , i never ads it anyways

switch to 2x later into the game when 4x is bad or 3x

[white thicket]

that first game the teammates piss me off

third partying with no awareness

[teal moth]

Idk start of sesh was kinda scuffed on my aswell

was my 1st game on

the game on 2 hours 20 minute ssmth like that

i have plat diamond teammates

but we do pretty well because of simple gameplan

pred squad wipe and stuff

[white thicket]

no like actual start but yeah I'm watching this one now

you play on open mic?

[teal moth]

no

CAuse im shit talking my teammates mid-fight and stuff =]]

push to talk all the way

i insta mute open mics ussualy

[white thicket]

lol that's what i thought

[teal moth]

Lemme know if you learned something 💀

[placid root]

It kills me every time this shows up

[white thicket]

I learned a lot but can't fucking apply it

dude my teammate

literally no comms

hits a u turn on the map

and fucking flies to capacitator

we landed swamps

like

WTF

is this guy real

god I'm going to demote

I'm like -700 today

fml

died to a hacker

[urban hedge]

can someone give me some tips about how improve smooth track on apex? I m actualy gold on benchmarks and platinum on rev.. benchmarks

[white thicket]

Not very much better than you on benchmarks but in ranked I'm diamond. My tips are warm up and understand the recoil of your guns. Aka. if you're running volt know the recoil and how the gun feels. Be able to one clip with the gun in the range from 20,30,45m distances as a starter. On top of that, play the tracking exercises on kovaaks or aim labs without thinking too much so you can let your subconscious aim take over

You will track smoother on apex if you get into scenarios where you can focus on tracking

you have to play cover and limit your engagements to 1v1s where you can properly track without dying

then from there it should be subconscious

[urban hedge]

for me it is to hard position myself and make decisions very quickly, I came from CS and the game is not as difficult as apex

[white thicket]

Pretty decent clip where it happens

just try to play cover

[urban hedge]

i'm using translator i don't speak english much

[white thicket]

ok

postion yourself in a spot where you can hide after shooting

[urban hedge]

nice shots

[white thicket]

tracking is all about micro adjustment

and reacting to their movement

[urban hedge]

ok I ll put this tips in game

ty

[teal moth]

Wdym can't apply it

Are you NA?

💀

The simplest thing you can apply are my mentality and my movement / dodging

Play anti-controller strafes if you're solo q (long strafes)

[violet sphinx]

what should i do to work towards getting 4ks and 20 bombs

ik its just a badge but i need smth to grind for and im tryna grind for a 4k

[teal moth]

💀

What's your rank?

[violet sphinx]

like how to play/improve fighting

[violet sphinx]

p3 but i stopped playing ranked

[teal moth]

ah

It's hard to 4k / 20 bomb in plat

not impossible

[violet sphinx]

if all the pred squads are out of plat ima try to go for diamond

nah in pubs

[teal moth]

Pretty sure pubs are better for those badges

💀

[violet sphinx]

yeah i meant pubs

[teal moth]

There's like 0 pred squads in plat

i mean <plat it's easy to get 4k 20b

[violet sphinx]

during the season start when i played ranked i had a bunch of full pred squads in ranked

[teal moth]

Just run at people

[violet sphinx]

im talking about trying to farm atleast a 4k in pubs

[teal moth]

Your only problem are gonna be resources

4k is skill, 20 kills is rng

[violet sphinx]

running at people is inconsistent but sitting back can also be risky

[teal moth]

You just get a 301/flatline

and kill people

[violet sphinx]

double ar?

[teal moth]

land lava siphon

no

like 301/flatline + shotgun

Cause your problem is gonna be resources you need ammo efficent guns

[violet sphinx]

i usually run car/r99/volt and wm or pk

[teal moth]

but also you need spray

💀

[violet sphinx]

so r3 wm?

[teal moth]

Ok but why have 2 long range guns

r3 wm is trolling

[violet sphinx]

i use wm up close

[teal moth]

It's shit

Idk i mean if it's your best gun go ahead

but i reccomend spray AR + shotgun/smg

Or if you wanna be a bad boy

and cheat

drop off the map 10 times

[violet sphinx]

does that actually work

[teal moth]

Then kill AI

yes

[violet sphinx]

cause i just wanna fuck with my friend too

[teal moth]

well not off the map

but land

and do 0 dmg and die

[violet sphinx]

tbh ima try it

[white thicket]

yes lol

[quaint karma]

best gold gamer

you dont even have to die

you can just leave the game

after a while

i guess thats why i see so many shitters with 20bombs

[violet sphinx]

why can people not even kill someone strafing with their knife out

[white thicket]

ty I actually honestly could be plat

but am waiting on my gold complete rn

since I wanted to make sure

i could even out my aiming skills

before progressing

Lets go I avoided demoting

[simple narwhal]

🧢

4k is just dmg farming

20 kills definitely takes more skill

[alpine trail]

Neither of them are skill 4k is technique and 20k is rng lol

[wicked river]

Where the triple 4k20k huh

[mellow kestrel]

wow whole enemy team bought purple mozam after 1 round

who wouldve thought

arena meta very good !

[vague nexus]

maggie was legit made for arenas

[simple narwhal]

fxteacher was unbanned

[mellow kestrel]

from what

[wintry cypress]

Legit just spam click lmao

Fire rate of a fuckin rampage

Not much spread when ads

Literally does like 45 dmg at 60m range or some dumb shit

Hit 3 bullets and ur already cracked pretty much

[mellow kestrel]

yeah blue armor gone in 2 shots from like 50m out

ridiculous

"shotgun" btw

[wintry cypress]

For sure

Wingman is like second best weapon to counter it

But its a lot harder to use

[simple narwhal]

@mellow kestrel he was banned from apex

[wintry cypress]

And if ur up against good players ur fucked

[simple narwhal]

turns out it was for playing with cheaters not cheating himself

[mellow kestrel]

oh

tf

well glad hes unbanned ig

honestly guys ive changed my mind

r9 > volt

thought id never say this

[teal moth]

💀

you ok?

suffered a concussion?

[wintry cypress]

Sometimes r9 just hits diff

[quaint karma]

honestly car is still my favorite smg

[lone granite]

I love when I get absolutely melted by what feels like a cheater, and then I spectate and they're just standing still on my box

AA is so cringe

[quaint karma]

cant relate

i play EU

or maybe im just outaiming the assisted gamers

[lone granite]

I know it's necessary for roller at the end of the day, but it needs to be reduced to like 0.3 at least and add a delay on the rotational tracking

also there's 0 reason I should be getting 0.6 console bots in my lobbies, hate that so much

[quaint karma]

oh yeah it should be .3 console and .2 pc

no cap

[simple narwhal]

fr

I swear there’s barely any rollers eu

or maybe they just die too quick

[quaint karma]

i dont think roller turns everyone into an aimbot but they sure hit a hell of a lot more shots than theyre supposed to

i hit more shots tho ig

[little verge]

It's honestly not even necessary, rotational aim assist is a new aspect. Magnetism on ADS (with limits to reduce spam) and slowdown are plenty for controller, especially if they get gyro later on. Rotational is just to keep casuals playing and paying.

[simple narwhal]

I play too aggressive their joystick can’t handle it

[quaint karma]

yes

older games didnt have rotational AA

but i guess they gotta make the ultra casuals feel like theyre not actual dogshit

the inherent smoothness to roller should be enough to be good in apex

with just magnetism

[simple narwhal]

Controller is genuinely better than mnk at this point

they can tap strafe super glide

im gonna switch

[little verge]

Exactly, because live service model means the only way you make money is people staying, and if a casual gets shit on repeatedly they'll give up and leave before they hand out cash for cosmetics.

[white thicket]

Cap

[lone granite]

I can outaim 95% of mnk players I come across, but the number of people who can barely walk in a straight line absolutely frying my ass on roller is too much

[quaint karma]

controller 100% more consistent than mnk with a fraction of the time invested

[copper forge]

yup

[lone granite]

lmaooooo I have like 5 hours on roller and every time I plug it in I'm fucking shocked

[white thicket]

Peak mnk will always be better than controller

[quaint karma]

peak roler is better than peak mnk

on apex

[simple narwhal]

Peak controller is better

[white thicket]

Not at all

[little verge]

Yeah, but why should you have to be 5th percentile just to face 50th roller?

[copper forge]

yh good luck out aiming the best controller player

[simple narwhal]

have u seen genburten

name an mnk player who can contest

[white thicket]

Yes?

[quaint karma]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maWBhvXXzT8

[white thicket]

A lot of them can contest in actual tourney

[mellow kestrel]

yeah i think so

its just

[simple narwhal]

Name someone

[mellow kestrel]

it melts people so quick bro

and the volt feels so slow this season

idk

[white thicket]

Well obviously microcorrections are a lot better

[mellow kestrel]

r9 honestly feels more consistent

its just shit ammo efficiency

[white thicket]

In mechanical skill there is a lot of good mnk players

[quaint karma]

close and medium range roller is superior

[white thicket]

Nafen, Hardecki, YukaF

[simple narwhal]

they aren’t flat out contesting gen

[mellow kestrel]

gen would melt all of them

tbh

[quaint karma]

lmao

easily

[little verge]

Gen is already a crackhead aimer, give him roller and it's just silly

[simple narwhal]

they may be more useful in some scenarios but all in all

[quaint karma]

yeah hes insane on mnk as well

[simple narwhal]

Gen takes those

[quaint karma]

makes sense that hes also insane on roller since he has those mnk target reading skills and all that

[white thicket]

Braindead take as long as mnk has the armor swaps and movement it'll be better

[quaint karma]

that you HAVE to develop for mnk

with roller you dont

[simple narwhal]

That’s a brain dead take

Since u aren’t always being third partied instantly

[quaint karma]

good roller players armor swap just as fast as any mnk player

[placid root]

I love dying around a crate due to peeker's advantage

[simple narwhal]

U can pull off an armor swap on roller

And controller has movement now

[white thicket]

You can't move though

????

[simple narwhal]

U stand still for 1 second

[little verge]

Silky smooth 16hz with roller biased registration

[quaint karma]

on that note

how does extesyy keep walking when he armor swaps

like just forward but

he does

[simple narwhal]

there is a bypass

[white thicket]

Bopping maybe

[placid root]

turns out bro had high ping and shot literally everyone around walls

[mellow kestrel]

steam binds no?

[white thicket]

Bhop

[quaint karma]

i said he walks

[white thicket]

Or steam binds ye

[quaint karma]

i guess so

[white thicket]

Inputs wasd

For you

[mellow kestrel]

i played ranked with a roller tap strafer demon that used to do that

[white thicket]

That's how he tapstrafes too

[quaint karma]

im aware

but those same binds wont let you walk

you stutter

[little verge]

Yeah, once players get to 180+ms delay it's fucking awful.

[quaint karma]

if you ever set it up for your roller youll see

cuz i have

guess he has an extra bind just for that?

bit odd

[white thicket]

Maybe he has paddles

One is binded to inspect

Idk what the other is

[quaint karma]

i thought it was crouch

[white thicket]

The thing is though the fact that controller can't do long range as well will always hinder them

The top algs damage and kills fraggers

We're Hiswattson and Mande

Because there is more to apex than just close range engagements

[quaint karma]

tbh im not entirely sure how what any top player does applies to like your average game

only thing i get annoyed about is bot roller players damaging me for more than they should have

top roller players are obviously all very skilled

[white thicket]

It happens lol even bot mnk players can damage for you more

[quaint karma]

they usually dont

unless you run in a straight line

[white thicket]

In a game where hipfire is pretty much a norm

[quaint karma]

i mean idc as much anymore as i used to

guess my aim just got better so i outdamage them

[white thicket]

Recoil control is also much easier on mnk so

Speaking with experience on that

Since I played controller when I started apex

[urban hedge]

@white thicket hi can you help me to put the movement techniques in game? like wall jump, tap strafing

[white thicket]

Just look up a guide. From there learn the techniques and implement them in game when you have down time to try to get them habitual. For example, wall bounce when you're not fighting and just running around the map. Tap strafing you should bind W to scroll wheel down or up

and practice them in firing range

Aceu, Faide, and Dazs have good movement guides

by the way

yesterday you said you speak with a translator

what is your main language?

[quaint karma]

its portuguese

[teal moth]

I feel like all movement guides are out-dated

And don't include basic evasive strafing

[white thicket]

yeah

https://youtu.be/0MVzZ06q5AQ

that's honestly why

i think this one is pretty good though

3months ago

and he talks about things like

no climb

[quaint karma]

no climb?

what does that mean

[white thicket]

you wall bounce and tapstrafe over objects

so you don't have to climb it

[quaint karma]

never heard anyone call that no climb

you dont have to tapstrafe btw

[white thicket]

yeah ik

[quaint karma]

you can just use wasd for it

its just a forward redirect

[white thicket]

but the tapstrafe can make it more significant and allow for better air lurching

[quaint karma]

just faced the same arena pred mozam maggie threestack in pub arenas twice in a row

with literal garbage teammates

what does this game expect me to do

im not a miracle worker

[white thicket]

just wait to queue

[night plume]

its funny when you shit talk a random teammate when the game ends and then you get qd up with them the next match

[quaint karma]

i dont shittalk teammates

[night plume]

i dont either

my friend does

and i laugh

[quaint karma]

i would love to shittalk enemies tho

game doesnt let me

[night plume]

apex should release hot mics bro!!

thatll be great!

[white thicket]

imagie pro scene lmao

SHIT ON

GET OUT OF MY LOBBY

[night plume]

LMFAO

imagine hal just baby raging when he dies

except the enemy gets earraped by it

[white thicket]

you're just looting the box and hear

"FUCK JORDAN"

"YOU GUYS ARE FUCKING IDIOTS. WE ARE PLAYING LIKE FUCKING IDIOTS"

[night plume]

😭

[white thicket]

or like

this clip:

https://youtu.be/WOTjlA8NWow

[night plume]

"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU GUYS DOING"

i actually had no idea until that clip just now that hal played fortnite

😭

[quaint karma]

he mustve played something before apex

he still sounds the same

[white thicket]

he played h1z1 for c9 then fortnite then apex

[quaint karma]

deleting a lot of shadowplay files

💀

[night plume]

damn!

i hate learning how to superglide

😭

cant get the damn timing right

YES

ALL THE TIME

AS SOON AS I BOOT UP THE GAME IT FREEZES 1 SECOND IN

AND THEN I NEED TO FORCE CLOSE IT

ITS SO ANNOYING

[white thicket]

Triple A game

[night plume]

what res is this

it looks really nice

[quaint karma]

legit have a loba doing 1/8 of my damage in arenas

shittalking me

[placid root]

1728x1080

[quaint karma]

cool

[night plume]

wtf

my 1728 x 1080 doesnt look like that

😭

[placid root]

Are you using the launch options?

[night plume]

arenas is so scuffed

wdym?

[placid root]

And doing the ALT + ENTER thing?

Search up a video

[urban hedge]

i can do the movement techniques but i cant use during a fight @white thicket

[placid root]

for Apex specifically

[night plume]

alright

[white thicket]

Bullet slow maybe?

[night plume]

is it forced display scaling

[white thicket]

or they are not habitual enough

[night plume]

@placid root

[night plume]

just gotta keep trying to implement it

[urban hedge]

i feel like I'm playing cs

and just shoot

[night plume]

i could hardly use wall bounces when i was in a fight

now i try to use them all the time

[white thicket]

it's a hard shift

[placid root]

Yeah, you have to use the fill scaling or whatever it's called in NVIDIA control panel

that too

[night plume]

okay thanks

[white thicket]

you don't always have to move when fighting though

you can use it to disengage or to chase

[urban hedge]

i know it, i learn it on a movent guide on portuguense with clips for each technique

[white thicket]

Just keep trying it in fights and see what works

Do you play arenas?

[urban hedge]

but i watching my vods i think that the better option to scape alive or just kill then more easyer n faster is doing a simple wall jump

n my reaction is like " what fuck i did" or why i dont wall jump on this guy

[urban hedge]

i play 4 or 5 as warm up

[white thicket]

Yeah it's good to look at vods and see what you do wrong then try it again next time

[urban hedge]

using pk n wingman

n in late game arenas i use r 301 or flatline to practice recoil

another thing that i do wrong is dont use wraith faze

or dont use to fast than i needed

[white thicket]

yeah often time when I played wraith i found out that i could faze out of a lot of scenarios

i like to faze and ras strafe so i can dodge when being in the animation

if I'm caught out in the open

[urban hedge]

today i will use the faze to get out n reset n i did a wall jump n cancel my faze

[candid sparrow]

Just me or is cortex absolutely dogshit and causes me to lag in apex

?

[night plume]

what is cortex

[candid sparrow]

Razer cortex

[night plume]

i mean mine is fine

i have a razer keyboard

[candid sparrow]

Causes lag spikes for me

I don’t get it

[night plume]

oh

i mean it could just be the actual apex

server

[candid sparrow]

Nah it’s fps spikes

[night plume]

oh

[candid sparrow]

Micro stutters

[night plume]

idk man im not getting that problem

sorry

[candid sparrow]

Damn

[ember wagon]

what did everyone score of scout of action?

[white thicket]

111

[placid root]

Who this

Feel like I've seen this guy before

[night plume]

no idea but tell him to slide me his heirloom

[placid root]

lmfao

[night plume]

im so washed on my sens

i feel like ass

time to find a new one

[night plume]

all my friends diss on the bocek

shit is insane

i think you should slide me your sens rayn

[placid root]

uhhh, in a sec

[night plume]

[placid root]

800 DPI

[wintry cypress]

37cm

Switched to that like 4 days ago

[placid root]

lol

Literally re-learning to focus well on whatever I'm doing. Fucked up my brain like 2 years ago by picking up a habit to not have tunnelvision in games

[night plume]

thanks

[placid root]

So far it's been doing wonders for my aim

[placid root]

np

[night plume]

i have good aim on valorant but this game is different for me

😭

never been good too good at tracking

gotta get better at it

[placid root]

I don't play valorant because I've never been good at static aim

💀

[night plume]

valorant was my first pc fps

i played apex on console but only season 2-5

[quaint karma]

be prepared to invest a lot of time

[night plume]

yeahhh

[placid root]

I played Fortnite for 600 hours, R6S for 1400 hours, Rust for 1000 hours

[night plume]

i mean

[placid root]

before Apex

[night plume]

i dont think im too bad at apex

[wintry cypress]

Not a sens issue, but i know what u mean

[night plume]

it feels too slow but so fast at the same time

i have no idea

usually when i get this problem i adjust it and im good for the next week

LMFAO

[wintry cypress]

So u dont have much mouse control im guessing

[night plume]

then i end up switching back to the original

probably not

[wintry cypress]

[night plume]

it amazes me how long you can play rust

havent tried it but it just looks so

[placid root]

I played like 600 hours on 40 fps

[night plume]

it looks like im going to break my monitor

[placid root]

And then took 400 hours to realize I'm not going to get any better

took 1.4k hours in R6 to realize the 1-shot headshot mechanic is catering too hard to shitters

[bright elm]

yea r6 is like 80% game sense

i feel

[placid root]

Actually just died to the most braindead 13k kill Octane

Lands on me and just punches me for 90% of my health

[hollow garden]

Is anybody down to play ranked on eu servers? currently in plat with my younger brother going for diamond. he's on console if anybody cares

[placid root]

How do you guys not lose the warmed up feel when you take a break

[alpine trail]

how is ranked matchmakinge ven worse than pubs?

teammates in ranked are way worse than the average player of the lobby were in

im basically alone havent had a random win a single 1v1 all day

[honest heron]

The better you get, the better your baseline skill level is

So you could be rusty and still outperform a lot of people due to experience

You can just play some warmup games though, it usually takes me a game or two to remember how to play

Talking to another person from Voltaic, I'm back to the conclusion that I might have undiagnosed ADHD

Not the first time I've thought of this

[teal moth]

Dosen't matter

Shitty label that is irrelevant

[white thicket]

Holy fuck 💀

[teal moth]

Im just tryna be supportive

[white thicket]

Brutally honest

[teal moth]

?

[white thicket]

The way you're supportive

Very blunt and to the point

Is that the right way how to describe it?

[teal moth]

I mean it is, i had friends that got mental health diagnosis and shit like that can really put you down.

Until you realize it's not gonna prevent you from succeding

[teal moth]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[white thicket]

What if it will prevent you from succeeding though

Actually nvm let's not go there

[teal moth]

💀

Leviathan got me watching valorant pro play

[white thicket]

Dang so you're getting ready to sleep then?

[bright elm]

val esports is pretty fun to watch

doesn't beat csgo esports tho

[teal moth]

Caught me

idk i watched them vs fanatic randomly one time

and they we're underdogs and had this

just ape mode style

[white thicket]

Yeah idk I'm not really into tac fps but sometimes it can be interesting

[placid root]

Would explain why the more I try to improve, the more I notice the moments where I zone out and can't focus

[white thicket]

This is actually better for you though when it comes to aim training

You want your aim to become subconsciously better

[teal moth]

I mean, it's give and take i imagine

some benefits

some downsides

[placid root]

I see no benefits 💀

[white thicket]

I have adhd and the way i control it is to just remove distractions

[placid root]

I just randomly zone out while playing against way worse players and miss a whole mag, lose

[white thicket]

try to get my brain to focus on one thing at a time

Are you sleeping properly?

[placid root]

Yes

[white thicket]

weird idk I don't really zone out in games

[placid root]

huh

Interesting

[white thicket]

I always just kinda keep thinking about the game

and honestly

when I do zone out

is when I hit clips

because subconsciously i just aim

and hit something crazy

and I'm like

wtf just happened

[placid root]

Maybe I just fucked up my brain by picking up a bad habit and just need to fix it

[teal moth]

What habit tho

[white thicket]

maybe

[placid root]

Somewhere along the way, I feel like I picked up a habit of just shaking myself out of focus

[white thicket]

do you oftentimes daydream or go out of focus in normal activities?

For example like Eating, Studying, Working, etc.

[placid root]

Like going downstairs to notice that you don't know what you wanted to do?

Reading a whole page and not remembering a thing

Making impulsive decisions 💀

Could just be me though

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[white thicket]

I do the 2nd thing

Usually for me I have learnt

to focus my brain on one thing

so when I go downstairs I'm like

ah

I know what i want to do

i definitely still have moments

but it's not as bad

there is also a lot of natural solutions to help you focus

[placid root]

hmmm

[white thicket]

Caffeine, Gingko, etc.

[placid root]

If you don't have the problems I have, I'm honestly relieved

That just means it could be bad habits

[white thicket]

The 3rd thing everyone has

we all make impulsive decisions sometimes

Yeah it's probably just bad habits

[placid root]

👍

[white thicket]

you can overcome it by rewiring yourself

Also if you're into books uhhh there is one really good bbook on it

[placid root]

I massively appreciate the info you're giving me

[bright elm]

if you really think

[white thicket]

Atomic Habits

[bright elm]

you have adhd

[white thicket]

that's the name of it

[placid root]

I read a lot of manga, used to read books when I was in like 7th grade

[bright elm]

why dont you stop talking in here and go get diagnosed (unless of course it costs money)

[honest heron]

voltaic apex chat

[placid root]

idk if it's worth bothering my family doctor

[placid root]

fr

[bright elm]

your family doctor is there to help your problems

[white thicket]

Mental health is 90% of the battle in apex

[quaint karma]

the going into another room thing and forgetting is totally normal

[white thicket]

[bright elm]

why would they be bothered trying to help you

[honest heron]

If you think you have it, it's absolutely worth getting checked out

[quaint karma]

sometimes i think of something and then something else pops up and i instantly forgot

forget*

[bright elm]

they make money by you coming in with health related problems

so they absolutely want you to come in

[honest heron]

Old man 💀

[bright elm]

they get paid, you get saved

[white thicket]

Psychologists are usually the ones who diagnose attention disease I think?

or at least how i got diagnosed

[quaint karma]

yes

[bright elm]

psychologists are just mental doctors

[placid root]

I'm getting sentimental for this chat 💀

[bright elm]

all of them went to med school

[quaint karma]

sentimental

[placid root]

yeah lmao

Getting to know that I'm not the only one having these problems 💀

[bright elm]

we all have our own issues lmao

i dont like sharing them tho

[placid root]

https://tenor.com/view/blackie-gif-25635440

[bright elm]

unless ur absolutely close with me

just ruins the vibe

[honest heron]

you know what else ruins the vibe

[bright elm]

u

jk

ily

[honest heron]

Playing apex on 60hz

[bright elm]

true

[quaint karma]

who does that

[honest heron]

I want to unalive

[placid root]

true

[bright elm]

what

[placid root]

I have to cap my fps at 144 even thought I have a 240hz monitor 💀

[white thicket]

console player moment

[honest heron]

I couldn't find the screws for my monitor arm when I was moving

[white thicket]

that's what most people do actually

[honest heron]

So I have to use another monitor

[bright elm]

same here

[placid root]

144 feels so much less responsive

[bright elm]

doesn't feel bad actually

[honest heron]

And my old HDMI cable can't push 120hz or more

[quaint karma]

my new monitor didnt come with screws

for the vesa mount

[honest heron]

So it's stuck on 60 for now

[white thicket]

I have a 144hz monitor and play on a 144hz laptop so

[bright elm]

@honest heron when u going back

[quaint karma]

but i found some random screws and they fit

💀

[bright elm]

to 240

[placid root]

I was playing with 144 in Kovaak's 'cause I forgor 💀 and it felt weird

[honest heron]

Today thank god

I just left the screws in someone's car I think

I'm gonna get them later

[quaint karma]

[bright elm]

wtf

give me ur 3080

[honest heron]

I have a displayport cable but the point on my old monitor is broken

[bright elm]

bitch

[honest heron]

And I can't put one in

The game is playable

It's just

[bright elm]

console player

[honest heron]

I can see the individual frames with my eyes

Deadass bruh I should just plug in the roller and larp as a console Andy

[white thicket]

don't forget the beanbag chair

[bright elm]

are you at least

hitting consistent superglides

oh wait ur not capped at 60

i forgot

lol

[honest heron]

I hit them consistently anyway

Like 3/5

[bright elm]

god

i hit 1/100000

[honest heron]

You just get a feel for it

[white thicket]

I just don't superglide

:)

[honest heron]

I superglide everywhere

[quaint karma]

turned my tv on as well but it didnt connect for some reason

very odd

[bright elm]

have u tried

turning it off

[honest heron]

It's just fun

[bright elm]

and turning it back on

[quaint karma]

it was off in the first place

[bright elm]

[quaint karma]

but i can try again

[bright elm]

[honest heron]

I cap to 144 cos it's the highest fps I can hit 100% of the time

I keep it that way so my frame times are consistent

[white thicket]

oh for me I can only hit consistent on 60 so like

It wasn't worth it

[honest heron]

Game feels way smoother than 180+ uncapped

[bright elm]

apex is the only game where i cap fps

[white thicket]

I'd rather play at 144 and just not superglide

[bright elm]

every other game i leave uncapped

[honest heron]

Cos if you look at the stats you'll see your frame times bounce all over the place

[bright elm]

yeah

[honest heron]

That's why it feels so bad at high fps

[quaint karma]

oh

i am stupid

[white thicket]

Yeah it's better to cap at 144

[bright elm]

apex is the only game i've played where frame pacing is ass

[bright elm]

?

[honest heron]

Cap to the highest frames you can hit without any dips

[bright elm]

did u try putting the tv in rice

[honest heron]

I should mess around with accel curves more today

[bright elm]

mouse accel

[quaint karma]

i just wanted to do this

[bright elm]

[honest heron]

Mouse accel is actually based in apex

[quaint karma]

turning it off again

[honest heron]

Like srs

[quaint karma]

i had my monitor settings on 'only show on display 1'

no wo nder tv doesnt show shit

[quaint karma]

i capped to 200 now

seems to work

could possible push 210 but eh

w/e

[bright elm]

nowosh must be rich

[quaint karma]

also my bunnyhopping is broken on 220 fps

i capped at 200

[honest heron]

I could push higher if I OCd

[quaint karma]

instantly back to being able to bunnyhop without issues

[mellow kestrel]

got a letter in the mail today from a fibre company saying they're gonna start digging in my neighbourhood the next few days

[bright elm]

W

[honest heron]

W

[mellow kestrel]

finally real internet 🙏

[honest heron]

I wish I had fiber

[quaint karma]

they did that here too except it somehow doesnt reach our house

just every other house around here

👍

[mellow kestrel]

pain

i feel for you truly

ive been waiting for this for 8y

or so

[bright elm]

8 years???!?!

[quaint karma]

ive had shit internet up until half a year ago

more recently actually

[honest heron]

My internet sucks but it's okay for Australian standards

Could be worse

Just sucks that business and higher education get access to fiber

But the people do not

[quaint karma]

95% of this comes from mobile internet tho

works tho so w/e

i literally play video games over 4g

💀

actually get 5g here but ig the router doesnt do it yet

[bright elm]

higher education as in unis?

[quaint karma]

whats your internet @honest heron

[honest heron]

yeah

[placid root]

oh shit

almost the same internet speeds

[quaint karma]

thats decent

i had 16 down 3 up

up until a few months ago

[honest heron]

its considered good consumer speeds here

[quaint karma]

for more than a decade

[quaint karma]

oh

[honest heron]

i used to be 20 up 5 down

[quaint karma]

yeah that aint great ngl

[placid root]

oh god 💀

But if it's stable, not that bad

[quaint karma]

honestly this

150 down 40 up is all i need

[placid root]

I used to have horribly unstable internet that always went down

[honest heron]

its annoying because people have tried to come in and supply us with better internet but the govt shut them down

[quaint karma]

but sure ill take gigabit if i can get it

💀

[placid root]

I ended up malding because I was playing Rust back them

[honest heron]

this really doesnt feel that slow

unless im downloading a big game

then it takes an hour or two

[quaint karma]

iim amazed every time i download shit now

it used to take me 10h

big games

or more

my internet is literally 10x faster than it used to be

the other day

new house of the dragon episode

downloaded that in an instant

just had to wait for peopel to actually start seeding the whole thing

[warped lake]

I upgraded to 800 down 50 up and it’s pretty solid

Too bad I live in the middle of nowhere so my ping is always going to be bad.

Living in Florida is great but then you get all of the South Americans lol…

[placid root]

Everyone has 200 up and 200 down in Latvia as long as they live in apartments 😩

I live in the middle of nowhere and have 40-50 down, 20 up

clearly just a skill issue

[bright elm]

canada has a monopoly on their internet service

so its overpriced as shit here

for what you get

[placid root]

ah, that sucks

[bright elm]

teah

yeah

last month the biggest ISP and phone service company

rogers

had all their services down

for a week

[placid root]

Pretty sure it's same price as what we pay for 200 down and up

in apartments

[bright elm]

so i had no internet or phone service during that time

[placid root]

in the capital

[bright elm]

damn

[bright elm]

this fucked up everyone

most businesses had to clise

close

during that week

[placid root]

Actually sucks that I gotta move out the drippiest house into an apartment built in like 1980 💀

[bright elm]

either close or do cash only

[placid root]

for good internet

[bright elm]

yeah thats dumb

lmao

[placid root]

Shit is built back when Russians were occupying the country 💀

Living conditions: 💀
Internet: 💪

[night plume]

anything for better internet

🙏

[placid root]

exactly

[night plume]

i wish i had better in game ping

[placid root]

for that fps game grind

[night plume]

i get 60-70

🙁

[placid root]

I get like 60-70 in Apex

everywhere else, 20-40

[night plume]

ive been playing mid-high ping for every game

shits a pain

[placid root]

Apex just always gives me bad ping for whatever reason

[night plume]

yeah the servers are so unstable

after so long you think apex would put any effort into fixing it

haha respawn!

[placid root]

Apex def has the worst servers of any game I've ever played

[night plume]

100% agree

[placid root]

poverty servers

Some dude has better servers in his basement, bro 💀
