apex

[quaint karma]

not sure what im looking at in the second clip tbh

why did that guy not heal

and why is his teammates first thought

seeing his buddy get hit for 195

to push

yeah nows the time to push!

bro

mfs dont have a brain

you just cant make it up

[torn oyster]

Pubs kinda wild tbh.

Ig bc I was cracked they switched out which isn't smart to do

[full sandal]

regardless of how bad they may have been, great beam. practice is clearly paying off

[torn oyster]

They could've killed me if they pushed together
But even so, being 5hp wouldn't have helped him if they did

Either way you look at it.
2v1 turns into a 1v1 very quickly.

[quaint karma]

controller brain tbh

my aim assist will take care of it for me

i just need to get in the range

[torn oyster]

💀 I've been called a hacker on multiple occasions and honestly it's not even insulting, it's more so a compliment.

[quaint karma]

by whom

[torn oyster]

Various players over the years, even own teammates.

[quaint karma]

well i mean no one else could call you a hacker in apex

[rose raptor]

getting accused of being on controller is the biggest compliment in this game

even better than being accused of cheating

[proven pulsar]

true

[torn oyster]

7000 hours on mnk
About 5hours on roller

[proven pulsar]

bro today i got beamed so hard i couldve sworn it was an aimbotter

turns out it was a .6

[torn oyster]

I'm actually very bad at roller

At distance

[rose raptor]

roller is a bad input

[quaint karma]

roller is a horrible input

for fps games

[torn oyster]

I call it the funny input

Right trigger simulator

[quaint karma]

although tbh

even with absolutely no aim assist

a good roller player would probably do really well on apex

cuz perfect smoothness

inherent to the input

[rose raptor]

nah lol

[quaint karma]

seen it on youtube

[rose raptor]

not unless u play stupid fast sens

[torn oyster]

Extecy is proof of that

[rose raptor]

extesy's gameplay without aa is mediocre at best

[quaint karma]

far as i know extesyy uses a sens that slows down af when hes on target

but otherwise is really fast

[torn oyster]

Per optic ads w/ alcs

Iirc

Idk I don't normally watch his content but most roller content creators use alc

[quaint karma]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJWLOFzE1h4

[torn oyster]

Yeah I think genburten uses something similar

[quaint karma]

idk but best roller sens is 4-3 anyways

[torn oyster]

I wanted to get good with roller to become a hybrid player since most people in comp are doing so
But I just can't see myself being good on the sticks any time soon

I've had a few pub games where I popped off but the consistsncy is not there

[quaint karma]

you can just practice roller on flowstate

an hour a day

should do it

[torn oyster]

My practice is firing range.

[quaint karma]

flowstate much better cuz you actually get to shoot at moving targets

[torn oyster]

I have like 4 hours max in aim labs I think and I don't own any other aim trainer

[quaint karma]

by flowstate i mean the apex aimtrainer on r5reloaded

its called flowstate

r5reloaded is just a modded version of s3 apex

[torn oyster]

Yes I'm aware of it.

I used to use it quite some time ago for fun.

I personally feel that the best way to practice, is to just jump In. For a game like apex that is

[quaint karma]

awful for a game like apex because theres barely any gunfights

in a 20m game you get to aim for like a minute

probably less

my aim is better than people who have played this game for 8000h

💀

[torn oyster]

I would like to say my aim is above average by a significant margin

But, there's always room for improvement.

[quaint karma]

idk this game makes me feel like

unless im literally the best mechanical player ever

[torn oyster]

I can shoot 100m+ with little to no recoil with ease

[quaint karma]

it wont be good enough

[torn oyster]

But it's a niche thing.

[quaint karma]

i mean r301 has no recoil anyways

[torn oyster]

Mhm. Any other gun and I prob would've done 60 dmg at best

[quaint karma]

well unless its a scout

💀

busted gun

[torn oyster]

Than it's 0

[quaint karma]

🥶

[torn oyster]

I dispise the scout

[quaint karma]

easiest gun in the game

[torn oyster]

Scout, l star, rampage and spitfire are the 4 guns I won't use

[quaint karma]

for longer ranges

[torn oyster]

I'd rather take a mozam with 0 ammo

[quaint karma]

rampage is terrible imo

you need perfect smoothness

to use it

i used to struggle with it so much

its mostly a roller gun tbh

i mean i do fine now but like yeah

r301 way better

[torn oyster]

Anytime I use it, I single fire tap it unless termite

Thermite

Octane stim w/ charged ramp. Kinda hit different

[proven pulsar]

cap shit is busted

[quaint karma]

eh

people used to think it was a TERRIBLE gun until every streamer and their mother started say ing it was OP

[torn oyster]

Busted things deserve to stay on the ground

[proven pulsar]

i do not enjoy it myself but whenever i get it from CP someone has to take it

[quaint karma]

legit

[proven pulsar]

its just too good to not take it

[quaint karma]

its literally just

[proven pulsar]

on floor loot shit was broken

50+ dmg in 2 hits

[quaint karma]

if it was why did no one use it

for the longest time

it was in that state

for SO LONG

no one used it

[torn oyster]

The recoil pattern is ridiculous at long range

You're drawing outlines

Or was

[quaint karma]

idk but you need flawless aim to use it

[torn oyster]

It used to be awful

[proven pulsar]

rampage is a gun to start fights, not to finish them

like get 3-4 hits and swap guns

if you get 4 hits thats a crack on purp shields already

[torn oyster]

The only good thing about the rampage is now my r301 has a 2x

💀

[quaint karma]

lol

[torn oyster]

When respawn steals ideas from the guy off reddit

[dull falcon]

I JUST got into a slomo server what causes this'

[quaint karma]

god knows

[torn oyster]

Some people claim its not server sided and its a player doing it intentionally for gain.
Typically by boosters

Either way, in apex current state. I'd believe both.

[vague nexus]

did they do something with the audio?

cause i was gone for like a day and everything is like 100 times worse

people who are behind walls sound like they are right next to me and people who are next to me sound like they are behind a wall

[wet skiff]

Any1 have any ideas how to improve visibility in apex? I noticed I can barely keep track of my target and center of screen during gunfights because I can barely see them. Especially hipfire.

[warped lake]

You can use an autoexec to make your graphics look like a potato. Visual clutter in general just sucks

[proven pulsar]

Apex visibility is trash, not much you can change

Best tip is aim with your heart, not with your eyes

[devout tusk]

you cant change anything really anymore other than removing shadows

[devout tusk]

so true, wish i could trust my heart

[dull falcon]

seer type beat

[wet skiff]

do you have an example of the auto exec? I have everything set to as low as I can but most of the autoexec commands got disabled by devs

[devout tusk]

find videosettings.cfg and do this and set read only

literally all you can do now

[wet skiff]

ok thanks. I added a giant pink ^ to my center screen and it seems to help me focus on center screen but obv the visibility issues still suck

yeah i had that issue literally 10 minutes ago

just randomly switched my weapon

i thought it was my 2 key so i sprayed it with air

[dull falcon]

but anyways yall mess up the graphics for more fps is crazy

[torn oyster]

i drop it to the ground

everything else is low or off

[dull falcon]

i used to play with tsaa enabled

[torn oyster]

im sorry for your loss

[dull falcon]

even when i max everything out it still looks foggy

so now its off

[torn oyster]

theres technically ways to get around it but its cfg edits

then lock videoconfig to read only

but make sure your ingames settings are where you want it in graphics because that will override anytime you launch the game

then theres various autoexecs but i dont like using them

theyre not aloud in competitive. so best to just not use em

[dull falcon]

something light.

but the video cfg things is insane

it wont make me better tbh

on full screen it doesn’t look as clear as id like

why do i go against the same arena pred maggie mozam 100 arena wins comming 3stack twice ina row

with randoms who are on default skins

sounds like boosters.

[quaint karma]

what are they boosting

im saying they were going for 100 arena wins

[torn oyster]

ive seen 2 cheaters on a single mans team boosting AP for em

oh then go off king.

dont think they were cheating

just scummy

oh and again

[torn oyster]

ill eventually go for arenas win streaks

[quaint karma]

with under level 100 randoms

if i had the choice to give away an heirloom vs play arenas, im about to ask who wants it

I would be on tonight if I wasn't intoxicated + headache

Decided to stream and my aim was all over the place with inconsistencies.
Got up from My desk and felt dizzy.

Apex wasn't the play lol

Perhaps tomorrow if I'm not busy @proven pulsar

If you play on Steam fill free to add.

[vast oak]

on the spred sheet there's these options and u can either start with the novice ones or go higher if u think u can u said u were masters in apex so id guess u would be fine to start intermediate

[dull falcon]

its in the google docs fam

[vast oak]

the instructions will fill u in on anythin i missed

[devout tusk]

????? its 100%

[torn oyster]

I think to trigger the passive

Regardless, I think it's fine as is.

you have to be sprinting for it to trigger

[dull falcon]

wrthcrw has a few on his channel , i aint bother watching it its an hour long or so i think and that one yt that does like apex tips he had this on vid ab like space or something idk

[tepid salmon]

alright, thank you ^^

[tepid salmon]

why do you focus on 1v1s this much if you dont mind the question? its a nice thing to practice, but these scenarios won't be too accurate ingame, no?

[dull falcon]

i like them it just helps me kinda like focus on the mechanics and like think about them while i shoot, i feel like it helps me

[tepid salmon]

hmm, alright ^^

[dull falcon]

also there are amazing ppl in the 1v1 space and i like practicing against their strafe

[tepid salmon]

well, maybe try out r5 if you havent already, has helped me alot already imo

[lethal wraith]

holy

I just drove with my team in a trident

through like 50% of the PoIs in Storm Point

and we didn't find a team until we made like a full loop

can't imagine doing that on foot

[dull falcon]

so literaLLY WHAT can i even do here i feel like my desiscion making is so messed u, i feel like we coulda survivd but i literally couldnt even see anything, This was all reactive and reflex

https://outplayed.tv/media/gaJk4Z

[wet skiff]

ok so that was not a good fight to take, you should've backed off and repositioned after the seer's Q wore off. Also not smoke yourself while you are seer q'd, wait till after or pop it as it ends, they can see you through it and you blind yourself and your teammates.

[dull falcon]

where to tho

first thing i did was go behind the wall after i got shot , this was also reactive not any real thought put into it

[wet skiff]

just back the way you came would have been fine, using your smoke. You can't do anything at all behind that rock, there's no angles to peek them from and they have seer who will see you coming, and horizon to get to top of rock. I'm not even sure you can climb up from that side

Maybe if you were able to get more aggressive off that initial damage and get a better angle to the left you could've kept the pressure up, but as soon as your two teammates joined you on that rock you lost the fight

you backing behind the rock to heal wasn't a mistake necessarily, so don't worry about that. But staying afterwards and your team coming to you to try and fight in that spot was a mistake

I'm not sure if you're in comms or not, if you're solo queuing I wouldn't worry too much about this one because it was basically not on you as an individual in that situation. Wraith could've portaled from building to you as well to give you guys an out which would've saved you and given you a chance to reset

[quaint karma]

personally as soon as you saw the seer ult

you shoulda got out there

[wet skiff]

that's still something i'm trying to teach my masters buddies

seer ult = fuck off immediately lol

[dull falcon]

how long did no fills take for u guys to see improvements

[proven pulsar]

😴

[torn oyster]

It takes time, and some patience if you're first starting out.
But the more you're forced In these situations, the more you see what works and what doesn't.
The term learn from your mistakes works wonders on the next attempt

[alpine trail]

Imma need that routine my guy

[knotty silo]

Just remember while youre reacting to their deacceleration/acceleration, then the aim assist would already have reacted

[fringe girder]

why do roller players still complain about mnk

and the ones who say mnk is easy never used one or literally used it in the firing range alone

[devout tusk]

insecure

[dull falcon]

i feel like i miss kraber shots way too much

idk why

[alpine trail]

u probably dont know how the bullet travel works properly

[devout tusk]

i miss cause i think they are way closer than they are

ive barely touched snipers still

[wet skiff]

controller players are all delusional. Touching a controller limits your IQ to room temperature for at 72h since you let go of it. So in order to have a discussion with them you need to separate them from the controller for a few days before they are capable of stringing together coherent thoughts

[torn oyster]

I just don't get the whole mnk is better than roller or Visa versa.
They both take hours to get good at. Both have positives and negatives over the other. They're just two separate inputs. And those gatekeeping that one is better than the other is as u said, delusional.

I have several thousands hours on mnk
And a small amount on roller and I can say with honesty. Someone not really using a roller for fps games ever. Is rather difficult

It isn't the pick up a roller and let AA do it for you.

[mellow kestrel]

the issue is that you can literally not ever beat roller up close

doesn't matter if you're celestial aimer

assuming the other guy is somewhat good

literally go in range and 1v1 your friend and pick up a wingman

on roller

[proven pulsar]

Having good aim on mnk requires a lot of effort and time, while on roller you automatically have it (requires very little time to get used to and start abusing AA)

[wet skiff]

It kind of is, it's really easy to pickup controller if you go in knowing how aim assist works and how to abuse it. As an MNK player your biggest mistake is most likely you were using right stick to aim. The trick to controller is to use left stick aim, not right stick. Right stick is there to turn around and initially get on target(and large range sniping), but once you are on target and in AA range, you swap over and focus on using your left stick to mirror their movement and let the aim assist do the actual tracking and correction for you.

Everything else transfers freely from MNK to controller, positioning, game sense, decision making, etc. Only movement and aim differ in how you approach them. For movement you are basically relegated to momentum shifts instead of tap strafing on controller, though everything else works fine and you can always just play valk so that advantage is effectively reduced to nothing.

[mellow kestrel]

if you strictly mirror you will get out strafed by other players tho

most likely

by better players i mean*

not other

[wet skiff]

When it comes to controller, the only mechanical aspect you need to master to start with are strafe fundamentals, specifically focusing on mirroring your opponent and not fighting the AA by using your right stick to aim. That is the entire skill gap for all controller players mechanically, up into the highest ranks you can get in the game, at which point there are other skills you can focus on.

Yea, but you won't find players that start out strafing you until much higher ranks, like masters+. Even in diamond there's like no strafe mechs. It's just who gets who in the crosshairs first with a CAR for controller v controller

I'm not saying you're gonna go toe to toe with naughty or anything, of course.

[torn oyster]

I feel like I'm bad on roller due to the state of my right stick. I would need to get a new one. But I'm alright until it comes to long range.

On mnk that's a strong point.

[little verge]

Not to mention as M&K there's some strafes you just can't even think to do against a controller. In a normal strafe fight you can add a brief crouch at the end of the strafe before you change directions and your player model shifts a bit. Against controller you just give them free headshots.

[torn oyster]

There's very few situations in a normal match where you would just ape up close. Just assume they're on roller if they're not and you're at a losing advantage

So it'd best to avoid those situations. Look for an angle at a distance

[wet skiff]

yes long range is absolutelyhard on controller, no doubt about that. No aim assist. It's also something you can largely ignore in apex, though lol

[torn oyster]

i know its apex but call me a pokemon master with how many symbols im collecting

[little verge]

Imagine playing gunrun and you just three stack rollers.

Why is it a fucking team mode?

[torn oyster]

it just queues up with people randomly. i had a duo console when im solo queueing

[little verge]

No, I mean enemy teams triple stacked.

[torn oyster]

ive witnessed 3 teams with 1 pc and 2 consoles. so i kinda get that feeling

It's like Respawn is incapable of making an LTM that's just about having fun.

They have to let the drooling masses three stack in a corner of a building even in a mode like gun run.

[wet skiff]

you do realize that's what like 90% of apex players find fun because they're trash right

why would respawn make a mode that's fun for only good players

that's not where the money is

[little verge]

I just can't fathom how people can legitimately find that "fun." Like legit, this team pulled up into the second floor of the building opposite zip building in fragment. Not even on the doors or the stairs, just inside the building and waiting the whole time.

Even when all the other teams were fighting at train and zip, they refused to budge.

[wet skiff]

because that's the only way they can win..

[minor root]

take the fight somewhere else, gunrun easily allows the lobby to take the fight anywhere in the map

if youre dying repeatedly to a team camping in a building thats partially a skill issue

[little verge]

That's not at all what I'm saying, that's the point. They got like two kills the entire match because occasionally someone would go there, die, and then they just ignored them and fought elsewhere.

Three people just sitting in a building waiting for something to happen while everyone else plays the game mode. How the fuck is that fun?

[minor root]

why is it a problem for you if theyre having fun or not if youre not actually affected by it as you said

[slate sedge]

anyone know what the base multiplier is for ADS in Apex?

like ironsights ads sens?

[quaint karma]

@slate sedgehttps://jscalc.io/embed/Q1gf45VCY4tmm2dq

[alpine trail]

You will notice a pattern of controller complainers = copers

[little verge]

I mean, you're still affected by it since the lobby becomes that much smaller due to their lack of participation. If they're so thrilled by just by rotting in a corner they could always play something more their speed. I just don't know why someone would bother to play a shooter just to ultimately avoid ever doing the shooting part.

"If it's so good, use it"
Almost every single M&K pro: "OK"

skittles is a great example of playing smart

his raw mechanics arent the best

in fact i think he would benefit greatly from just going back to roller

but ig mnk is more fun to him

[dull falcon]

suggestions, i swear im not bad at the game

https://outplayed.tv/media/b125vz

[devout tusk]

dont try to snap back onto target when tracking in apex

just try to go back the same speed

youre just overshooting her on both sides, tricking yourself into thinking shes moving faster

you might find better resulkts in r5

wait wtf my pc is in spanish or sumthin and says everythings spelled wrong

wtf

uh

[devout tusk]

honestly its just a big nerves thing, you feel a lot of pressure in apex and with the screen flashing and bouncing around things look like they are moving way more than they are

[vast oak]

is this a wndows bug

wtf

si going on

[wet skiff]

sir this is an apex discord not dualingo plz learn spanish elsehwere

no like its auto correcting to spanish words

[wet skiff]

god am I really that unfunny

[vast oak]

xD

no i was panicking and ignored joke tbh

❤️

[wet skiff]

bro I'd give anything for apex with cleaner visuals. Like half the time I can't see my target at all in cqc, just too much visual noise

[quaint karma]

takes a long time to learn to ignore it

[wet skiff]

I have like 1k hours and I cannot ignore it

[vast oak]

ok so tbh ive never had a problem with visuals and dont get what people are talkin about

@dull falcon that guy strafing earlier

ideally youd wanna aim like this

also ignore everything about that clip that isnt me positioning my crosshair 💀

you can practice doing this in r5 on the strafing dummy

its underaiming

that’s kind of a fire streamable url

one thing about the smoothness part of it ever since i went lower on my sens ofcmy smoothness improved but like what will happen is ill be smooth but ill be underaiming the etire path of the bot motion from point a to b

or maybe for like a moment ( i think I worded this right idk)

[wet skiff]

if you get a chance can you show an example in that r5 strafing dummy? not like, now. Just next time you're on r5. Like just 30 seconds of that kinda aim versus a couple dummy's

ALSO LMAO

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/v7nXRLfGSHQ

look at his fucking aim assist

just tracking the short strafe without him even doing anything

like this shit is hard to master on mnk

roller just gets it for free

actual rookie 4 player

these are the kinds of people that need aim assist ngl

[sharp nova]

try moving left then right then left again

never thought of that

[dull falcon]

i would want to switch to roller but im already into deep on mnk to even care or try

[quaint karma]

im sure i could get to my current mnk level on roller in like no time

since i used to play it and all

and knwoing how to actually aim is hugely beneficial, even for roller

but its just boring

and sluggish

[dull falcon]

u can be tho weirdos who do 6+ sens

idky they do this

[quaint karma]

i mean technically you could just run high hipfire sens

most shooting is done while ADS anyways

but its still sluggish

and the only reason it can even compete is because most of your aiming is done for you

and im not about that life

[dull falcon]

the most pc - setting is just max alc zero response curve

[quaint karma]

i mean you can easily run extesyy settings

where it just slows down next to enemies

idk why thats even a thing ngl

[dull falcon]

how tf he do that

[quaint karma]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJWLOFzE1h4

the extra stuff is when aim assist isnt engaged basically

so max sens

and the other stuff is when it is engaged

slower sens

on clue why thats a thing

but yeah

no*

this is still harder than 4-3 tho

cuz as soon as you leave aim assist bubble

itll go fast af

but much more viable than just crazy high sens

[dull falcon]

ill look into this it looks fun, unfair

honestly i just hate the analog stick i was on it for a week i was doing really well then i stopped and it didnt feel the same ever

[quaint karma]

also i really dislike my controller

if i was to play controller id buy a better roller and get some kontrolfreeks

basically a raised stick

gives you more precision

[dull falcon]

nah i have them i cant play without them at all

[quaint karma]

well yeah it makes sense

tbh i could probably find one of my old xbox 360 controllers

they must be somewhere

and im p sure like 3 of them have kontrolfreeks on them

💀

[dull falcon]

ive posted a few vids of me being really bad at controller like hipfire wise im horrible movement horrible aim bad if not close range

linear is amazing is all i gotta say

[proven pulsar]

gotcha lmk

[quaint karma]

in any case

im committed to mastering tracking on mnk

dont need roller

[granite geode]

does anyone has an issue where in lobby you have like 2 fps and than suddenly its working fine

[wet skiff]

not in lobby, but I have random fps spikes in game. I'll be at a steady 237, then drop down to like 100 for 1/2 a second. Happens like once every 2-3 minutes and feels like a big stutter. Really pissing me off

the best way to practice matching target movespeed is just smooth tracking scenarios right?

something like tamtargetswitch smooth

i think I do same thing villain did, where I trick myself into thinking everyone is moving much faster than they really are. For that should I be practicing smooth tracking or is it my precision snapping that I need to practice to get onto target instead of overshooting?

or is it the snapping itself that's the mistake, actually?

[torn oyster]

I have the same problem when it's like an octane stim or bang passive

Some weirdo stim neo strafing

My muscle memory has normal velocity so their strafe isn't matched with muscle memory

Happens a lot now since I switched sens. Was doing a stream challenge and one of them was set my sens. And I never switched back because it feels nice

[wet skiff]

haha

what sens did they give you

[torn oyster]

400 dpi 2.1 sens

From 1400 0.9

I hate how people are like "you have the (enter pros name here) sens. You're a copycat"

Could you imagine using a common sens for gaming that most people use like it's a foreign concept.

Prime example of the outcome. Trying to get used to it

[quaint karma]

sens doesnt matter

unless youre using something really high you should perform the same on most senses

[wet skiff]

yea I was just curious. I think I have a habit of crutching my movement to correct my aim, instead of focusing on moving to evade enemy fire and using my aim. Any ideas on how to break that habit?

[lethal wraith]

control is back

[wet skiff]

yea just bullied my first lobby

definitely fun

[little verge]

Control is fun when the lobbies are fairly balanced, but 99% of the time it's just a snowball where half of one team leaves and the other just outnumbers and steamrolls.

First match and the first couple of minutes the enemy team size was down to 1/3rd, and by the end it was just two people.

[wet skiff]

yea it happens. I killed like 4 players at the start of this previous round and they just straight quit lmao

[torn oyster]

yessir

but its the best for warmups

cant change my mind

[proven pulsar]

gun game was better tho

[torn oyster]

in realistic terms, of people sitting on buildings. yeah prob

[proven pulsar]

Respawn keeps grabbing normal game modes and somehow making them worse for Apex

[devout tusk]

gun game has better maps but control is more fun still to me

except the olympus map

that one was lame

[wet skiff]

the olympus map was fun after all the octanes and pathfinders got their ults and you have pads and ziplines from every direction to mid lmao

it sucks though before then

I disliked the fact gungame was white shields

I think if blue shields it would've been more fun. White shields just break so fast that you spend 9/10 of your gunfights being aimpunched

[mellow kestrel]

nice that control is back but holy how is this lava siphon map still in

its so horrible

[little verge]

Right? Like I prefer the fighting in control because of blue armour and loadouts, but it seems like every mode is fucking trashed by poor design choices they force on us. Gun run is probably the worst adaptation of gun game I've ever seen. Why white armour? Why is it a team mode? Why abilities? Why stupid cheese spots like bones in skull town? Why is the last weapon a throwing knife over a Kraber?

Thankfully I'm just glad I have Kovaaks, OW2, and Gundam to play now instead. Apex keeps getting worse somehow, even when I didn't think it was possible.

Not to mention the shit that happens in the background. I'm sure players will be thrilled when they find out cross progression isn't coming after the promise for it this year, and now even their latest anti cheat addition is lost to fucking Roblox.

God I hate these night maps lol. You can't even run the digi to help because sometimes it just breaks on control.

[wet skiff]

Yea I still really don't understand why so many FPS games lately have just flashbanged you when you get into a gun fight. Like how can any of the devs play that shit and think it's ok? It's awful

[little verge]

Probably because most of the devs that make games don't play on M&K and aren't aware of these issues, or are aware of it but can't do anything because crushing skill gaps makes money and project leads/studio heads/publisher execs will refuse to change those aspects knowingly.

[quaint karma]

hope i won’t suck ass on apex today cuz that’s what happened last time right after going to the gym

💀

[alpine trail]

my aim felt good after workout when i played some control games today

sometimes its the opposite though

[quaint karma]

yeah it was only like that once

maybe i was too exhausted

idk

normally i try to like be in best possible form when i play

at least 50mg of caffeine, full meal, having had enough water

well rested

[alpine trail]

i wish i only needed 50mg

😔

[quaint karma]

well, i usually have more like 150 in a day but 50 is enough for me

[alpine trail]

yeah the tolerance just creeps up real bad when ur intaking it frequently

[quaint karma]

but ik some people are caffeine enjoyers

yeah i don’t even drink coffee regularly, maybe a single cup

but i at least have a tiny bit of caffeine a day

[alpine trail]

better to b like that

[quaint karma]

150 is usually my hard cap, i mean it’s hard to drink more than that if you only drink coke for caffeine and no coffee

or if i do drink energy drink it’s either like one of the bigger cans or just a small one

big is only 150mg too

some people just drinking 10 cups of coffee a day tho

[alpine trail]

my prayers to their enamel 🙏

[vast oak]

bro my daily cup of gamersups is 400 wtf

[quaint karma]

far as i know up to 400 daily is considered fine

but it sounds like a lot to me

will probably make you more jittery

[vast oak]

ig it is like energy drink on steroids i just didn't realize how much that is compared to normal shit

wack

[quaint karma]

a big can of energy drink is 150

or 160 max

idk how much a cup of coffee has

maybe 70?

[vast oak]

damn

i thought that 1 cup of this shit was like a normal amount now it seems like a shit ton xD

[devout tusk]

coffee is like 100

[sharp nova]

400mg is the fda's recommended max intake

so

im like 150-250mg a day

but sometimes 0

habitual caffeine intake does seem to be a positive for me though

1-2 coffees in the morning is nice

sometimes tea as well/instead

[neon sandal]

I find that OD:ing on caffeine is unnecessary

You dont need more than 100-200mg to get the full effect

If you don't you are building resistance and you need to take a break from caffeine

If you go very big with doses because you start needing more it starts getting dangerous

I have seen my classmate go to the hospital after he drank 5 energy drinks at school and his heart started acting up

[quaint karma]

[wet skiff]

if by apex feeling gross you mean performance wise, do a clean uninstall of your drivers with Display Driver Uninstaller, then use NVCleaninstall to revert your drivers back to 516.94. You can cut out a lot of the bloat that comes with nvidia stuff with nvcleaninstall. But this completely solved my performance issues, I was having a ton of stutters and random FPS drops. I'm basically stuck to my FPS cap now and have very solid frame times, so game plays smooth

[little verge]

This patch is pretty bad though, lots of people are getting weird heavy frame drops and stuttering.

[alpine trail]

I was too, it was driving me completely nuts. Revert your drivers to the version I listed and it should fix it

[minor root]

i forgot how to move in this game

[quaint karma]

wasd

[wet skiff]

you can also jump and crouch. I use scroll wheel for jump, and spacebar for crouch because I am chad as fuck.

[minor root]

strafing with ars feels so slow after playing soldier 76

[minor root]

im more chad using spacebar to shoot

[wet skiff]

For ARs, you'll mostly want to rely on ADS/unads spam. So you start off ADS, then un-ads and go hipfire for a shortwhile, then ADS again.

When you do this, you maintain ADS accuracy for a couple of seconds while you are hipfiring, and can strafe more quickly. It's hard to master and there's a definite range where it doesn't work, and working with the ADS sens bug can be really hard with zoomed scopes, but it's definitely the best way to have good strafes with ARs

[minor root]

i unconsciously do that sometimes

but yeah its p hard to master

i usually just hit ras strafes when hipfiring but now i dont do it subconsciously anymore

[wet skiff]

yea it's even harder because I use toggle ads and not hold

found out when I use hold to ADS I start gripping the mouse tighter and tighter. I still do that for long sprays, been working on trying to maintain a relaxed grip for so long

using spacebar to shoot is def a bit weird lol. I think it's slower than clicking for me so I don't thinnk I'd be very good at it, would make timing harder

[minor root]

i use toggle as well

i moved shoot to spacebar bcs i really like the no pressure feeling when aiming

HOW TO I GET BETTER WITH 2X WINGMAN

[wet skiff]

step 1: don't use 2x wingman

[alpine trail]

wym 2x wingman goes hard

[wet skiff]

too bouncy. scope covers target after shooting sometimes. Same reason holo sucks on wingman

[alpine trail]

Ain’t gonna stop me from 2tapping with it

headshotting feels easier with it unironically

i barely run it now though

[dull falcon]

long range is where i cant use it

[alpine trail]

maybe ur leading ur shots wrong but yea it is a bit weird to get used to

[lethal wraith]

this is new

I haven't gotten fucked by the game like this before

[wet skiff]

deserved TBH

[lethal wraith]

yeah stuff like that is classic too

I haven't had an enemy just straight up phase through his teammate before

[lethal wraith]

[devout tusk]

you odnt collide with teammates

[wet skiff]

50/50ing is dumb change my mind

[lethal wraith]

I know you don't collide with teammates, but notice that lifeline is stuck with me

yet Horizon just walks through

[devout tusk]

yeah true kinda weird

[wet skiff]

https://giant.gfycat.com/InbornLimitedElkhound.mp4

Slowly getting there

also rate my crosshair

[lethal wraith]

pretty good crosshair

also surprised you have hitmarkers on

most people just disable that

[wet skiff]

I usually have it disabled, actually have no fucking idea why that's even on

I played without damage numbers for a bit too trying to help me focus on target but that was a bit too difficult because couldn't give accurate coms

[devout tusk]

yeah i feel like im hacking with numbers and markers off close range but mid range i just think im missing constantly because i sort of use the numbers as hit confirmation

[little verge]

Numbers just feel so important for good comms too.

[wet skiff]

really I want nothing more than for them to just cleanup the visuals, like a lot. It really shouldn't be this hard to visually track a target, there's so much stuff. I feel like I could come up with like a 30 page document worth of visual changes they could make that would leave the game looking great but clean up visual clutter

well, ok, that's #2 on my list, #1 being deleting rotational aim assist lmlao

[dull falcon]

i was pretty consistent in a bad spot

https://outplayed.tv/media/6478nD

is that bad?

[proven pulsar]

even in control i get turbo griefed by randoms LMFAO

[alpine trail]

It says the name of the program, outplayed

[dull falcon]

its just automatic , i use outplayed for recording clips

[wet skiff]

oh yea how is that. Any performance impact?

geforce is trash and doesn't work half the time, and I tried out steelseries gg which is ok, but kinda pointless as it can't cut/edit clips in the software so you need a third party tool to clip anyway

[slate sedge]

Thank you for that!!!

[dull falcon]

i dont notice any performance impact tbh with u

my pc can handle it i suppose

[wet skiff]

does it let you trim clips with the software? Like if you only want 15 secodns out of a minute or something

[dull falcon]

yea

its actually so simple

[mellow kestrel]

OBS + LosslessCut

Low performance impact, and trimming clips with llc takes 2 seconds

[little verge]

Sadly neither of those will happen.

At this stage I'm surprised Respawn hasn't gone "fine [reflashes your muzzle]"

[wet skiff]

PTSD INTENSIFIES

also fuck yea trying that out, fuck steelseries

[regal rose]

how do you export in lossless cut im confused nvmm i gott it

[devout tusk]

i honestly think back in season 0-1 with auto execs, before I'd even heard of aim training, I had more consistent tracking than now

[wet skiff]

yea it's a shame that shit messed up important things like bangalore smoke, otherwise maybe devs wouldn't have cared and kept it

[devout tusk]

i think they wouldve removed it eventually, like they removed the sound commands years later

smoke and gas removing command wasnt the same one as the muzzle flash and blood splatter one i dont think

cause i mained bang back then

and still had smokes

[wet skiff]

it was, you could put it on an autoexec and hita key to re-activate it which would get rid of all the smoke/gas particles

[devout tusk]

ohhh

interesting

i found some other way to get rid of the visual clutter back in season 4 i think but

it got rid of everything

completely

so it wasnt good

ill see if i can find a video

not talkin about the nvidia inspector texture stuff

[wet skiff]

lol even with all that it's still like a flashbang when you shoot that R9

i love the low poly gameplay though, does that actually help with visibility

[devout tusk]

ya lmao, idk why that one stayed because even grenades were invis

uh sometimes but mostly no and sometimes it fucks you over

cause it turns all particles into just transparent squares

so if they stack up like with havoc you just cant see at all

and sometimes the base model color of characters is the same as the environment so they blend in way too much

[wet skiff]

ahh too bad

I'd love to play apex low poly with clear visuals lmao

[devout tusk]

yeah same, i honestly think apex is extremely ugly and has terrible art direction

almost all the skins look ass

everything is mud colored and over detailed for how fast its moving

but mechanically just feels so good

[wet skiff]

yea, agreed. I think this game is the one that had the most potential out of all FPS games I've ever played but respawn kinda bungled it really fucking bad

[devout tusk]

that console money is hard to pass up I imagine

[wet skiff]

with the aim assist in particular being so strong that like 90% of players atm are controller players. So movement and all the stuff that really made the game so popular at the first place don't matter anymore

without aim assist this games skill gap would be so freaking massive. Instead it's just like, playing try to avoid the controller players and failing because they're all controller players lmao

[devout tusk]

ye, tbh i dont really mind getting fried by aa usually but they just play in such a boring way that forces you to do the same

which doesn't make use of the really unique parts of the game

just feels like a waste lol

[oak veldt]

how can i do this

[carmine viper]

It's like quakelive!

[devout tusk]

dont remember, i found it accidentally editing my video settings file

no textures is from nvidia inspector though

[candid plover]

what in game rank should be expected of a vt jade player?

[proven pulsar]

literally any rank

vt rank does not correlate with in-game rank

[leaden delta]

has the movement been tweaked with, it def feels funky

[quaint karma]

well realistically you probably will be at least gold

but beyond that, cant say much

[teal moth]

Nice

[placid root]

6.66 k/d?

Ranked player?
