Good luck getting 6.66 kdr in ranked

#

You wont find enough ppl to kill on this shit map

idle warren
#

what do u guys think of nvidia reflex? does it have a big advantage? bc if not im sticking to buy amd 6600xt

sharp nova
#

yes

#

reflex is a big diff from no reflex

#

but amd has their own equivalent

#

not sure how they compare but id imagine similarly

fringe girder
#

dont matter i was like VT silver-gold and was already masters in apex for a few seasons

#

before

dawn burrow
#

where can i find apex voltaic routine?

wet skiff
#

yea especially for apex. Aim matters ofc but there's a lot of other important factors like macro, teamwork, positioning, and decision making that are going to give you better results than just insane raw aim. You don't really need great aim, for example, if you're always playing zone from a power position just shooting players with a scout to farm up your shields and steal knocks while other teams are fighting. That's kinda boring and you'll still lose to teams rolling up on you but it's an easy way to maintain positive RP.

My aim was a trocious yesterday and I still managed to average 3.5k damage in control as well as managed to squeeze out a win in diamond.
Aim is a big factor sure but I agree, many many factors come into effect.

quaint karma
#

oh no

#

we traded

I'm d3 atm. My regular squad plays pretty sparsly, like once every few days. I made masters last split. Anyone here looking to grind to masters or play more regularly? I'd like to hit masters again this split

#

I'm not the best but I'm improving all around, actively working on getting better, and am pretty chill and no raging or anything.

torn oyster
#

People are just playing so weird this season on top of ranked just being in a awful state

wet skiff
#

Agreed. Seer + controller meta is pretty tough.

torn oyster
#

I'm like borderline d3 into d2 (again) and there's like a week and some change left.

wet skiff
#

Uncapped rank kp was definitely a mistake as well, it's really weird and I'm not a fan

torn oyster
#

I know I'll eventually get it but I'm just cutting it close.
I've significantly cut down my apex time this season

wet skiff
#

Yea that's why I'm worried I can't hit masters with my regular squad, just cus they are barely playing. I could try solo queuing but it's kinda a crapshoot, I prefer duo at least

i want a new crosshair color

#

what should i use

#

currently using cyan

wet skiff

#2550255 aka pink

#

the pinkest pink

Purple, pink, green, all work good.

wet skiff

#FF00FF I guess is better way

quaint karma

@wet skiffyo watch this

#

sec

night plume
#

i guess pink isnt the greatest since i have purple outline colors

wet skiff
#

well fuck you how dare you insult pink

night plume
#

😒

#

im not insulting!

wet skiff
#

pink is the greatest

uh just 16:9

#

oh ok

night plume
#

time for the hexcode to rgb slider conversion

wet skiff
#

nice. I've noticed I hit way better with the wingman if I try to treat it like a tracking weapon instead of flicking it.

#

that's the first one I put

night plume
#

nvm

#

thats the same thing

wet skiff
#

max red 0 green max blue

night plume
#

im just braindamaged

wet skiff
#

lmao

#

but I think that's just because I'm better at tracking than flicking, one of the reasons I'm here practicing my aim on kovaaks lul

dull falcon
quaint karma
wet skiff
#

I see a lot of people flick the wingman, glad to know I've been doing it right, at least

#

I spent so much time practicing recoil smoothing that my flicking/clicking fell way behind my tracking, backwards from most other players

quaint karma
#

i never use clicking guns tbh

#

ever

wet skiff
#

though I wasn't really able to apply that to smoothly tracking a target until recently. So glad to be seeing improvement

quaint karma
#

i can whiff a wingman mag and then switch to car and oneclip the guy

#

it happens

#

πŸ’€

night plume
#

just modify the wingman to shoot like a car

#

simple

dull falcon
wet skiff
#

yea my wingman is super inconsistent on a day to day basis. Some days my wingman absolutely fucking slaps, other days I may as well nade myself and have a higher chance of damaging an opponent lol

dull falcon
#

which is why i feel like i dont make progress

wet skiff
#

That's what you're supposed to do with aiming - put it in the back of your mind and set it to autopilot, then think instead about ingame stuff like positioning and what your opponent is doing

dull falcon
#

i have a wingman clip let me find it

quaint karma
#

dude i love control

wet skiff
#

I struggled with that for a long time because adhd makes it harder to go into autopilot mode than normal people, so I was trying really hard to focus on aim and couldn't focus on anything else, or the other way around, I tried focusing on other stuff and suddenly my aim was non-existent . And ofc because of ADHD I couldn't focus on either really even when I tried so I was just going in circles lol

quaint karma
#

i notice that when im really unfocused or tired

#

my aim can be way worse

#

like a good step down

#

idk why that happens

dull falcon
#

this one i couldn’t find the other one

wet skiff
#

Yea that's likely cus you can't focus on the game at all. Even with your aim on autopilot if you aren't focusing on tracking the target with your eyes cus you're tired you won't hit them

#

or distracted. You aren't thinking about positioning and stuff and are reacting slower to opponents, as well, so you are likely caught at disadvantage or slow to react and then have to panic or rush your shots so you have even more trouble

dull falcon
#

but i fond if im not conscious ab it im not applying my kovaaks experience

wet skiff
#

I can't help you there, I'm still working on that myself. I think it's just practice and breaking old habits, so takes time. Especially something like smoothly tracking an opponent

random thistleBOT
#

Stop breaking things! :C

dull falcon
#

since i do kovaaks shorter and apex for a longer time i feel that it might override my kovaaks practice

#

if i am on apex with bad habits for like 4 hrs or something then that hour of kovaaks will feel useless

wet skiff
#

if you're trying to improve smooth tracking maybe do a few minutes of smooth tracking scenarios between every couple of hours of apex just to reinforce that and look for it

wet skiff
#

yea I doubt you're losing experience, most likely you're just not practiced enough yet to apply it automatically all the time. I've been playing fps for 10 years without practicing my aim so I have a lot of bad habits I need to work on breaking, such as crutching my movement to help my aim

dull falcon
#

nah strafes help sometimes with the adjustment to crosair placement , mirror strafes be hitting different

wet skiff
#

I definitely feel you, though, I'm struggling with same things. Especially crutching movement, I think that's going to take me a really long time to break. I rely on my movement to correct my aim instead of using my movement to remain hard to hit and using my aim to correct for that movement. There's times when it's ok to mirror an opponent but I used it as a crutch for a long time

quaint karma
#

strafeaiming is an important skill

#

i do it a lot

#

and especially at longer ranges as well

#

you can give yourself extra smoothness by just moving in the same direction as they do

wet skiff
#

I agree. But if you crutch it, you don't improve then struggle when you can't afford to crutch it. It's not a one size solution fits all

#

If you have a huge HP advantage in a 1v1 then it's great, for example, but if you're in a potential 1v2 it's definitely better to focus on using your movement to position in a way to LOS 1 opponent while reducing your damage taken instead of trying to mirror and HP trade, you'll never have a chance vs the second opponent because you'll be out of cover/position AND making yourself easy to hit for both opponents

#

also great at longer range or if an opponent isn't actively focusing you. So using it isn't bad, but crutching it and relying on it to hit your shots definitely can be, and that's what I was doing. Nothing but mirroring to try and hit my opponents because I wasn't confident in my aim, which in turn led to me having terrible positioning and doing nothing but HP trades in all my fights

#

I've been using control to try and work on it, and when I get it right, it lets me 1v2 or even 1v3 sometimes. I still get it wrong most of the time but it's good to know that my aim training is paying off because I don't feel like I have to crutch mirroring my opponent in every fight now

dull falcon
#

yall got a any smoothness scens that isnt just purely horizontal,i just want to get used to other mouse movements

@proven pulsar when ever u see this should i move on to the next level or keep going to max out

proven pulsar
#

I'd try to get the graduation score in at least half those scenarios before moving to the next one

(the blue score that is)

#

Only as a high score tho cba to deal with average

who plays control are legit bots

gentle mantle
#

any proficient ras strafers here?

wet skiff
#

bro I just made my aim a good chunk more consistent. Turns out I had some scope specific sens multipliers left in there from like s0 when there was some sens bug

#

there's still technically a minor bug but now you can get 1:1 uniform aiming with scope sens 1.009258, so 1.0 is basically perfect and functional and imperceptible

should i play apex and do kovaaks routine first or vice versa

what is that strafe?

dull falcon
#

raw input or cfg?

silver seal
#

why would u need a cfg for a ras strafing 😭

native nimbus
#

is it even possible? the movement is kinda hard to put into a cfg no?

wet skiff
#

there's a config that spams ras strafing that's actually insane

silver seal
#

Yea that's neo/meme strafing

wet skiff
#

oh yea idk why I got the mconfused

silver seal
#

Ras strafing is the foundation for neo strafing

dull falcon
#

mfs come up with anything and add strafe after it and they use configs

#

ive seen like 3-4 weird ass strafe names

silver seal
#

With a cfg it lets u stack more lurches

dull falcon
#

i understand lurch and stuff

mellow kestrel
#

imagine if control matchmaking actually tried to make the teams balanced

#

🀯

#

one team is always 50% sweats (minimum) while other team is only bots except for like 1-2 ppl

carmine viper
#

Is there a bug where jump master cant dive and just floats in the air?

devout tusk
#

Theyre way more balanced this time than the last 3 controls

#

Where it was 1 sweat and 17 bots

dull falcon
#

how do i convince my friend that 1000 dpi and 1.7 sens is bad on apex bc he has no aim

wet skiff
#

that's not that bad for apex

#

just convince him to do a bit of practice for aim training and it'll catchup

dull falcon
#

he dont like kovaaks too much either

#

@quaint karmawanna run some ranked? im lf1

#

or @torn oyster

candid wolf
#

anyone know how to make my game stop feeling so sluggish

#

i get like 200 fps (capped at 144 with rtss for my monitor) but i feel like im running in mud

wet skiff
#

all graphics lowest settings, reflex enabled. Go to nvidia control panel and make sure everything is set for performance. If you use GSYNC, cap your FPS at 3 below your monitors refresh rate, so 141

#

Make sure you are on fullscreen as well, and if you have multiple monitors with different refresh rate, turn off all hardware acceleration or close/minimize everything so you see nothing but desktop on the other two monitors. There's a bug with nvidia that's been around for years that can cause your monitors to sync to whichever has the lowest refresh rate if there's a window with an animation or program with hardware acceleration on that monitor(discord included)

#

Lastly, using MSI afterburner/RTSS, monitor both your CPU and GPU usage and make sure it's below 90% at all times. If it goes higher, you might get input lag even with high / stable frames. You can also use afterburners built in overclock feature if you haven't overclocked at all. It's 1 button press and it does all the OC checking and stability stuff that you'd normally do manually for you, full auto. Very good imo. Then if your processor isn't overclocked, do that as well. Free performance!

#

If you're experiencing stutters, try using display driver uninstaller to uninstall your current drivers, then use NVCleaninstall to install 516.94 version - it's the most stable driver for Apex that I know about.

That's everything I can think of. Good luck

candid wolf
#

Should I use gsync

wet skiff
#

It's up to you, afaik there's no added input delay so there's no reason to not use it. It's all benefits to the absolute best of my knowledge.

#

Some people say to use VSYNC with it(in nvidia control panel, use FAST setting) but it makes no difference as long as you are FPS capped at 141 fps for your 144 hz monitor.

candid wolf
#

Yeah I've been getting a lot of input lag and stuttering in game and it's been super frustrating

#

And really bad movement lag it feels

#

Like all my timings for wall bounces and superglides feel delayed and I am deadsliding a ridiculous amount

#

And my slide jumps feel like they are slowing me down not speeding me up

wet skiff
#

I guess you can also check your monitors settings, most have a response setting that can be adjusted

#

That sounds like internet lag based on what you're describing. Are you experiencing packet loss, unstable ping, or high ping? Make sure you have netstats enabled. I've been getting placed on high ping servers a lot lately and that messes with movement a lot

candid wolf
#

My ping is steady at 30 and it says I have no packet loss

wet skiff
#

no idea then. I guess try the things I typed out and hope for the best, that's all I got lol

what are the best scenarios to get your wingman better

#

i play waveshot but any other scenes that are fundementally better

devout tusk
#

Popcorn for me

wet skiff
#

fuck, why you do this to me. I hate popcorn with a burning passion 😦

quaint karma
#

never played a clicking scenario in my life

#

but i can see popcorn working

wet skiff
#

you don't think clicking scenarios could help with things like pathing? Accurate flicks are still really useful even for tracking heavy games like apex, lets you get on target quicker and more accurately, no?

devout tusk
#

Wym pathing

#

Popcorn is good to me cause it trains reading and timing

#

More than like bounceshot

#

And they are somewhat realistically sized targets

wet skiff
#

pathing like, you spot a target and draw a straight line with your mouse there instead of making a loopy S on the way lol. Or you don't overshoot and have to correct backwards, instead you land on or undershoot the target and correct in the same direction.

devout tusk
#

Oh i do loopy s aiming exclusively

#

I aim like a rubber band is connecting enemy and my crosshair lmao

wet skiff
#

I vod reviewed a friend and his target swapping wasn't straight lines at all and he would sometimes circle the target on micro-adjustments

#

So pathing practice would dramatically help him for example. Helped me a ton too I think

#

but still a work in progress lol

dull falcon
wet skiff
#

If you have MSI afterburner, there is a 1 click button for it. I would highly recommend MSI afterburner, it is the single best GPU tool on the market. It comes packaged with Rivatunerstatistics that'll display anything about your cpu/gpu that you set it too, and you can use it to frame limit your games or draw a crosshair.

You don't have to do anything for MSI afterburner besides hit that OC button and give it a few minutes, and it's really solid for getting your card in a spot that's stable but still better than base clocks by a mile.

bro I have like a legit mental block for using the PK, I don't get it at all. Why can't I click on players when that gun is equipped lmao

proven pulsar
#

Same happened to me when I started using it

#

IMO it has a bit of a weird timing or something like that. Once I got used to it I started hitting hard though

wet skiff
#

I've been trying to use it for like 1k hours lol

#

ik it's best to aim at the torso and be chill on the followup but there's legit just like a mental block I have where I get nervous when I pick it up and instead of aiming I just don't.

torn oyster
#

I find myself better not ads at close range than using ads.
I'll ads if I'm walking up on someone or using momentum to get to them.
It would be a lie if I said I didn't struggle using it.
I can't use mozams with 1x. But 2x no problem

Hello, I just got past 1000 hours (on apex) and my aim still sucks, I started doing voltaic a week ago and I was wondering how long it should take to see decent improvement (i'm iron rn)

torn oyster
#

Depends on how much effort you put in.
It won't happen over night and it's just a gradual improvement overtime. I wouldn't rush it and go at your own pace.

north midwest is out of luck

yea something with apex is def fucked up it places me in servers I have no business belonging in

I get so many 100 ping games when I should be at aroudn 20-24 ping in my east coast servers

the best server for me is st louis apparently and i live in minnesota

cuz thats definitely right

then i pop into a game

bam 90 ping

#

apex servers are so dogass

#

hate how i play this game

wet skiff

yea that's cus it's not placing you in st louis. They changed something, it barely prioritizes ping rn. The game quality is awful as a result

ngl i feel like im dogass at apex

#

like my aim is fine but my movement feels so stiff

#

idk what it is

wet skiff
#

learn to tapstrafe

#

ez

night plume
#

can u still do that even

#

im so outdated with movement

#

i can only wb and superglide

wet skiff
#

learn superglide + tapstrafe to start with, and practice the 2 second slide rule(4 seconds after superglide) and that's really all you need. You can have great movement just knowing all that

#

ras strafing and other stuff is mostly a meme you'll get fried by controllers most of the time if you try them

#

I also use auto-sprint and have a "hold to walk" button instead to make movement a bit smoother. Takes a bit getting used to using semi auto's or shotguns, though

night plume
#

do you happen to have any guides for superglide tapstrafe

#

i use toggle sprint

#

hated it at first

#

but im used to it now

proven pulsar
#

or well it used to be on gibby meta

wet skiff
#

yea it was good for gibby bubble fights

#

but doesn't do much vs controller unless you're bubble fighting lol the movement isn't far enough to get out of aim assist bubble

#

it'll track you without any input from the controller player

stray valley
#

If used properly it 100% breaks aim assist

wet skiff
#

how do yall remain consistent with your aim? Mine is so all over the place on a day to day basis, the swings are completely wild.

#

like on my good days for smoothsphere easy I'm getting almost 70% accuracy, today I can barely get 50%. And it shows a lot in game, too. It's making it so hard to feel confident in my aim

People are inconsistent. Food, sleep, and so many things affect us on the daily level.

dodging against roller the goal is pretty much to just shake off the AA

#

Well, let's not get too carried away. There's definitely bad days. It just so happens that all of them occur the day I choose to boot up Apex at all.

tepid salmon
#

Probably sounds stupid though

minor root
#

you can use the bad day and good day thing as motivation

#

on the bad days think to yourself im gonna improve myself so my worst performance is gonna be good

#

and on the good days you also think to yourself im gonna be the best that i can be

#

at least thats what i do

tepid salmon
#

Yeah, I agree, it can backlash though thats what I mean

minor root
#

yeah i think the most important thing tho is just not using a bad day as an excuse for a bad performance

tepid salmon
#

True, once you cope with that shit itβ€˜ll turn into a habit

#

If you can make use of bad performance to get yourself motivated and to improve its great tho ngl, just hard to do imo

wet skiff
#

ya I guess my bad days are just so noticeably low atm that it's a bit too much. Maybe with more time and practice my bad days will still be "good enough" so I can do well in game

not as invested into apex as i used to be.

#

honestly im looking for the 13th reason why to have my foot out the door. but there isnt a better BR right now.

wet skiff
#

i have less kills on my entire account than you do on lifeline

#

😦

torn oyster
#

and there isnt a FPS game i know more about than apex.

#

but most information in competative is universal for br's

wet skiff
#

yea another high TTK, movement based shooter could topple apex real quick. It's a good game but the devs haven't addressed the most glaring issues, some of them since the day the game released

torn oyster
#

the best QOL in all honesty isnt even the core game

#

its the queue system.
if you queue for trios, unqueue and queue into duos, youll still get put in trios

#

on a limb youll get duos but

wet skiff
#

simple example, no perma game mode where you can login and just practice, like TDM. Control is here sometimes, and gun run, but both are new and not perm. Instead we got arenas which is a dumpster fire.

Then ofc, target visibility and things are insane, the aim assist is so overtuned that like 90% of player on PC have swapped to controller, audio untouched since S0, servers are barely functioning. At least they did eventually remove the flashbang muzzle flash after like 5 seasons of people complaining lol

torn oyster
#

honestly, even rotating LTM's

#

would be nice

#

just to have other options

wet skiff
#

Yea. Really just anything where you can respawn and get back into the fight quickly

#

Guy separates from his team and I hit him for 210, but gotta reload and I get 85% headshot roller'd while my two teammates still can't finish this guy.

#

visibility is notoriously bad in apex

little verge
#

Oh man, Apex has the worst visibility. The occlusion and lighting indoors, the blinding effects, the effects that are way larger than they need to be, particle/dust effects are overdone to hell, and every filter serves to blind you.

#

Like I played BFV and I still have -way- easier times shooting people in that game, and people can literally blend into the terrain.

Thank god, I thought I was just having skill issues, but it feels awful in comparison to other games

yea and I recently learned i got sensory overload issues so it's worse for me

tepid salmon
#

:/

wet skiff
#

Legit thought I was going blind or hard of hearing some days but it's just a result of that

tepid salmon
#

Yeah, I feel you though, not as bad as you, but I have ADD and it can be quite hard to focus in apex, so I canβ€˜t imagine how bad it has to be for you

tepid salmon
wet skiff
#

oh no, it's everything. It's just sometimes a side effect of adhd. Basically every little movement or sound captures my attention for a microsecond, so when there's too many things I can't process it all

#

simple example is if I'm talking with someone, and there's a TV is in the background and like maybe another audible conversation, it's like I can't hear what they're saying. Even though I can hear them just fine. It's really weird. But my attention is just basically going between all 3 rapidly and I can't force focus it on the person talking to me as a result of the adhd.

tepid salmon
#

Oh yeah, its similar then I guess? Im not certain what the detailed differences are of adhd and add, but it just generally gets hard to β€žtuneβ€œ back in

tepid salmon
#

Not sure how to call it, but daydream fits I guess?

wet skiff
#

in a way, but to me it's more like I can hear them just fine, but can't hear what they're saying, is the best I can describe it.

yo i think recoil control is fucking up my tracking idk how to explain it

wet skiff
#

I definitely struggle in games with bad visibility or a ton of screenshake and particles and stuff. I couldn't play modern warfare at all, the opponents were basically completely invisible. I would swear on my life they didn't render on my screen at all, then check the replay and they're just there, in the middle of my screen lmao

#

Hmm, I mean, recoil smoothing id probably the easiest solution

wet skiff
#

Focus on smooth tracking so you get recoil smoothing, no recoil at all.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jERapU6mpo

Apex Legends recoil smoothing explained but also how and why when paired with jitter aiming it is so effective.

I want to apologize that in my Jitter Aiming video I could of done it way better and explained recoil smoothing and just how closely tied to jitter aiming it is. While these are two separate mechanics, why they get confused and tied t...

β–Ά Play video
#

you can ignore jitter aiming though it's kind of a meme

tepid salmon
#

Idk, its just frustrating, cause you know that theyβ€˜ll probably ignore it until theres a boycott for it or something lol

little verge
#

There's no one to boycott it these days, and they wouldn't do anything about it anyways even if there was.

#

M&K players are too much the minority for Apex now, they got their business from the casuals now and they don't care about anything beyond that. Anything they say throughout the year is basically just trying to qualm doubts but ultimately by not actually doing anything either.

#

They say they're working on audio, nothing happens. They "get into talks" with pros like PVPX to say they're looking into visual clutter, nothing happens. They say they're doing big top secret stuff for cheating and it turns out to be Hyperion which also gets removed like two months later because of Roblox.

#

And now we're fast approaching the end of the year where they promised cross-progression.

tepid salmon
#

Hyperion?

little verge
#

Anti-tampering software, not really anti-cheat but still another layer at least.

tepid salmon
#

Guessing its an anti cheat, but howβ€˜d it get removed cause of Roblox?

#

Or was that sarcasm and I failed to understand? sadge

little verge
#

The tech company that developed Hyperion and other tools got acquired by Roblox in an exclusivity deal.

#

So now any games that use Hyperion gotta stop using it, including the recently added Apex Legends.

tepid salmon
#

Lmao

proven pulsar
#

roblox cucked apex big time

tepid salmon
#

Well, I guess theyβ€˜re trying?

proven pulsar
tepid salmon
#

Theres not much to expect from games anymore tbh

#

Sadly

little verge
#

It's even worse when you consider EA has actually created kernal level anticheat now. But right now they're only using it for their next FIFA game pepeLaff

tepid salmon
#

Well, idk I havenβ€˜t encountered too many cheaters yet, but im eu ig

#

Not the biggest priority

#

Back when it released I saw a few, now the worst thing Ive seen was someone using a cronus in control lol

devout tusk
#

like cata ic long strafes invincible for 15

#

then cfsi or something like that for 10

#

or just play overwatch

wet skiff
#

ofc I warmup every day lol. Just guessing that my avg isn't really high enough yet. So if I'm like, 10% off I miss my entire mag, versus if I get better 10% off means I'll shoot them two pixels to the left of center, instead

#

lul

devout tusk
#

yeah, when you aimtrain what fov do you use

wet skiff
#

either 103 or 110, not sure. I set it and forget it for fov

#

I use 110 in apex, which is really like 108.5 because of their rounding error, but I have no idea what that translates to for kovaaks

devout tusk
#

I was noticing bigger improvements with my apex aim when using my ow settings 103ow, 37cm even though my apex ads settings are 109, 41cm which is what i was training with for a while before

#

i think just being able to see your mistakes better since its bigger helps

little verge
#

Yeah, 103OW is much better unless you're doing TS scenarios and need the wider FOV to see the next target.

#

The source FOV ends up making the bot feel much farther away, which also makes it easier to track even though it's a smaller target.

#

Also a lot better for learning your centering because you'll have a better idea how often you stray from that middle.

devout tusk
#

yeah, also lower fov makes me be less lazy with corrections because the bot is moving faster/bigger distances across my screen

#

and darting my eyes around can be tiring

wet skiff
#

i will give it a try

#

i'm trusting you

#

omg the bots are s obig

#

potential for 50. seemed like a pipe dream to get that high but with the respawn beacon, its easy to farm those

fringe girder

ppl really play control to play point

mellow kestrel

nothing wrong with playing the objective imo

minor root

until its full of caustics and wattsons

fringe girder
#

mellow kestrel
#

real indeed

#

wish they would just disable defensive legends for control tbh

#

or atleast caustic + wattson

#

lol

minor root
#

delete caustic and wattson in general

lethal wraith
#

TDM will probably be shit exactly for the same reasons

#

if they release it

wet skiff
#

I think they're much more manageable now than they used to be. Wattson fences are strong but you can counterplay them easily, and now that you can destroy caustic barrels he's much more reasonable.

I still hate playing against them, though

native nimbus
#

r5 is dead already? Waaa

wet skiff
#

only in the mornings

#

after like noon there's usually a decent chunk of people in the DM

native nimbus
#

NA isnt dead

#

EU is

wet skiff
#

oh yea that's true sorry, didn't think of other regions. Being American does that to you

#

πŸ™‚

#

might also be because they released an update recently and some ppl haven't updated + control means you can just login normal apex and still have a place to practice that stuff

wet skiff
#

Does anyone have any insight on how to avoid rubberbanding while tracking a target that changes direction a lot? Basically, when they change direction, you go to correct, but before you're back on target they've changed back so you overshoot, go to correct, and it changes direction again before you really get any damage in and it just goes back and forth?

ashen trench
#

Don’t move mouse do they are strafeing that short

wet skiff
#

that's fine if you know they're going to do that, but you can't always know. I'll see if I can get a quick recording to show exactly what I mean.

#

Trying on Close Fast Strafes Invincible, scenario says to track like this:
Focus on the target so that you can read its movement and react quickly to its direction changes. Commit to the direction the bot is going and track it in one smooth motion rather than multiple small ones. Do not predict direction changes

https://gfycat.com/fortunateportlycardinal

So I'm trying to do that, but you can see I get stuck in that loop where I'm rubberbanding back and forth as the target changes direction before I can get back onto target and tracking smoothly

#

For scenarios where there's a bit less directional changes, I can get on target and track pretty well, but when they change direction a lot I get completely frazzled and start that rubberbanding thing and can't even get close to anything looking smooth

#

In apex if they're adading in place and I have a single fire weapon I can destroy them usually, by holding mouse still as you said. But if I have an automatic like R99 and they have a bias while strafing I struggle

little verge
#

I think you're just not used to the speed. Either use the time scale option in the menu or try the easy version of the scenario and just focus on being smooth to avoid that issue of falling out of sync and playing catch up.

#

The more you end up trying to regain ground by the time it's changing direction again it becomes 10x harder to track since you'll be going opposite to the bots movement.

brain: Hey playing apex inthe morning sounds great
Apex:

vague nexus
#

reminds me of this

torn oyster
#

i see photoshop in the future

granite geode
#

when i put apex on 4:3 or 5:4 why do i have black bars on top and bottom of the screen

torn oyster
#

do you have an nvidia card

#

i have a simple solution if so. idk what its like on amd

wet skiff
#

for 4:3 the black bars should be on side, not on top, though. Then that would stretch it to the side, to make targets wider

torn oyster
#

yeah. you could also set a manual override to your displays height and width to match it but not ideal

#

and then fullscreen

wet skiff
#

if he's got them on top/bottom it's an apex thing, I'm pretty sure there was 4:3 specific thing you had to do in your videosettings cfg file to get it to work properly

torn oyster
#

but thats also if your monitors not native to 4:3

#

(PSA: always best to play on native) and have the application rescale itself

#

but some things have work arounds

granite geode
wet skiff
#

I would love to play stretched, but apex doesn't have seperate x/y sens so you can't compensate for it and "square" your aim. Your horizontal sense will be higher than vertical as a result which I think is bad

granite geode
#

its the same

#

its just fov difference

#

not sens difference

alpine trail
#

no it’s fov difference lol

#

sens*

#

fk my brain

wet skiff
#

for 16:9 and 4:3 yes, but if you take the 4:3 then stretch it, it makes the horizontal sens different

torn oyster
#

im 1920x1080 and i play on 1680x1050

#

16:10 gang

wet skiff
#

you're moving same pixels up and down, but your horzontal pixels are longer than your vertical pixels as a result of stretching it

alpine trail
#

they’re all over yt

#

it’s not like 16:10

torn oyster
#

its a huge difference ik

wet skiff
#

in cs:go if you want square aim in stretch, as an example, you have to change either your hor or vert height to a 1.33 or 1.33 multipler or something similar.

If you want to play in 4:3 without stretch you don't need to do anything, though, but you'll have black bars left/right and that would be pointless to actually do

alpine trail
#

No one does that tho

#

changing m_yaw to make it 1:1 that is

wet skiff
#

it only matters in diagonal aim, straight up or straight down is ez to compensate, but for diagonals it's really hard as a result. I struggle with PUBG for a long time as a result until they fixed it to allow "square" aiming

torn oyster
#

you could prob find a guide and play something like 1440x1080 which is 4:3

wet skiff
#

yea 1440x1080 is best 4:3 resolution for sure

torn oyster
#

which is video config edits and making it read-only

devout tusk
#

you can use rawaccel

#

for different x/y

#

if you want

wet skiff
#

that is true actually, that would work.

devout tusk
#

but it will apply to desktop

torn oyster
#

saw someone who had 1680x1050 desktop res because they wanted a faster tab out when playing

devout tusk
#

my desktop res is 2304x1296 unscaled lmao

#

got a black box round my shit

torn oyster
#

which in heinsight isnt an awful idea? but pixel mapping making the screen blurry in and out of games becomes a problem

wet skiff
#

what the fuck is wrong with you

devout tusk
#

i want it to be 24"

#

lol

wet skiff
#

ok, I can accept that reasoning

torn oyster
#

elitists lurking: Than just buy a 24" 5head

wet skiff
#

on a bigger monitor that makes sense

#

I always use 24" so I wrongly assumed that you were, too

torn oyster
#

i've played apex on 1680x1050 since season 2 i believe

wet skiff
#

I've been dying to get myself a 1440p monitor again, there's a really sick one out with proper response time and 270 hz I really want. But it's 27" and that is really hard to play FPS games on imo

torn oyster
#

yeah. my Zowie XL2540k is 24.5"

#

and its perfect.

#

its honestly the best monitor ive ever owned.

#

240hz w/ a small base.

wet skiff
#

1080p, right? I got an MSI one, 240 hz 1080p. Really good but I have a 3090 so it's kind of a waste not having a higher resolution for better visual clarity. I've just been waiting for 1440p monitors to catchup to 1080p for FPS games.

torn oyster
#

yes.

wet skiff
#

yea imo if you want to really be competitive or push yourself for FPS games 240 hz or higher is the way to go depending on your budget. It's just so smooth if you get your performance to match it

night plume
#

copy and paste that

#

then when you load into the main menu before u actually entire hte lobby

#

do alt + enter

#

twice

#

itll create a gap at the bottom but fill the rest of your screen

#

then entire the game

#

and youll be good

wet skiff
#

ticks me off that that a lot of games took the massive performance increases in hardware as a hint they don't have to work on getting their games to perform well, though.

night plume
#

what do u guys think is better

#

1728x1080 or 1440x1080

#

ive been going back and forth

#

be my deciding factor

wet skiff
#

I can't think of a reason one is better than the other, aside from preference

#

imo, especially for apex, I would think about which one makes you feel like you have better target clarity

night plume
#

i hate how this little thing is such a hard decision for me

#

😭

#

im so indecisive

wet skiff
#

since that's really the hard bottleneck for apex unfortunately

#

don't worry, I struggle with that as well. Very indecisive and second guess everything

#

well, I guess saying don't worry is wrong. Do worry about it lol. Must try to build confidence so you can say "I can play on both no problem"

#

and be confident that no matter which one you choose its the right choice

torn oyster
#

now that i think about it.
you could just set a custom resolution, keeping your native resolution, and then go to config and set it to that custom resolution and set it to read-only

#

w/ fullscreen enabled on primary monitor

#

idk how well that will work with 4:3 but

devout tusk
#

id much rather have that

wet skiff

if one existed

that would have a weird response time

devout tusk

27 is too big yeah, i tried for a year and ended up just making the custom res

but

the colors are great

its kind of intense though, idk how to describe it, its not brightness

sometimes its too much

for some, its like pulling teeth to play apex these days and i would agree. its in a very stale state.

#

olympus control, let enemy get B

alpine trail
#

crypto is so boring in pubs

torn oyster
#

just EMP spam

alpine trail
#

ya

torn oyster
#

i might try that and go for dmg grinding

#

drop an 8k like yourself

devout tusk
#

i think he said he was using double flatline

alpine trail
#

i had volt flatline in mine i think

torn oyster
#

a menace.

alpine trail
#

for most of it

torn oyster
#

volt no optic + pk

devout tusk
#

i just run wing and find an r9 to pick up every game, or the reverse

#

stuck in my ways since season 0

torn oyster
#

the menu UI changes are nice but im waiting for them to have rotating LTM's

devout tusk
#

ya i dont really even play br anymore

#

just come back for ltms

torn oyster
#

i feel like cod was successful in a game sense due to how many different types of gamemodes it had

#

we finally started getting more and the activity grew a bit

alpine trail
#

i dont think they care enough

#

why use more resources when you are already heavily profiting

devout tusk
#

i just like to fight, but pubs just arent what they used to be

torn oyster
#

i havnt played pubs in quite some time it feels like

#

either ranked or ltms in the past few weeks

quaint karma
#

i think im doing something wrong

#

maybe i play objective too much

alpine trail
#

reminder: ea only put 0.0025% of their revenue into y3 of ALGS

quaint karma
#

idk how you guys are getting 8k damage games

torn oyster
#

i never play objective in control

#

i just pewpew

#

i got 8 other people to do that for me

alpine trail
#

do you die a lot nosh

quaint karma
#

no

devout tusk
#

i just stand between B and their spawn

alpine trail
#

i literally

#

run to their spawn

devout tusk
#

and kill people from there

alpine trail
#

and just sit in their spawn for as long as i can

#

no b site

quaint karma
#

thats it?

#

i only do that rarely

#

idk

torn oyster
#

honestly you can cheese the crap out of it more now than before

#

via their respawn

quaint karma
#

usually i even go back if theyre capping our home point

#

and shit

alpine trail
#

nah idc about that who cares about winning in non stat mode

devout tusk
#

Usually i just camp b on barometer cause its the most fun

alpine trail
#

yea barometer b is fun

#

but sometimes no1 goes there for like full minute straight

quaint karma
#

nah you dont understand, i have to be at the top of the leaderboard at all times

#

πŸ’€

devout tusk
#

yeah but when someone finally does im there waiting

alpine trail
#

lmao

torn oyster
#

play for the W, i can respect it

quaint karma
#

plus sometimes teammates are braindead so like if i dont cap myself well just lose tbh

#

and then i cant farm kills anyways

torn oyster
#

but top of the leader boards with the 2nd to last amount of kills

#

kinda meh

quaint karma
#

idk, imma try just going to their spawn for a few games

#

lets see how it goes

torn oyster
#

or tied for last with half the other team

devout tusk
#

also to get high stat games you have to make the game even

torn oyster
#

i played a game where half of the enemy team had 0 kills

devout tusk
#

so you gotta lose on purpose for a while

torn oyster
#

you can do really well all you want, just know it gets paired up with others who are also doing very well

alpine trail
#

aint no way

devout tusk
#

yeah this time feels like theres sbmm

alpine trail
#

everyone sucks in my games

#

it feels a bit harder than last time but theyre still bad

torn oyster
#

than youre just built diff morgan

devout tusk
#

nah man theres like 4 sweats every time for me now

alpine trail
#

thats fkd

devout tusk
#

its fun though

alpine trail
#

i think last game i played there was someone with same kills as me on enemy team but i didnt run into him for the whole game

torn oyster
#

im sure i could load up pubs and get maybe 7 kills after not seeing anybody

#

and then get like

#

2

devout tusk
#

except today im playing so bad for whatever reason, got rolled a couple times lmao

#

feels like 300 ping between my brain and fingers

alpine trail
#

feel that

torn oyster
#

id like to concider myself above average but this wrist injury got me playing like a hardstuck plat on console

devout tusk
#

"why am i still crouching" believe it or not its because im still pressing the crouch button

torn oyster
#

i had a teamate who played toggle crouch

#

i wanted to lose it

devout tusk
#

i use both for different stuff

#

hold for 1v1s though

alpine trail
#

i use both as well

torn oyster
#

i just cant do it personally.

alpine trail
#

do u just have it unbound?

devout tusk
#

like slide jumping i use toggle

quaint karma
#

nah people on control are all dogshit

alpine trail
#

slide jumping feels weird without toggle

torn oyster
#

i just have your standard hold to left ctrl

quaint karma
#

theres usually like 2 or 3 good players on enemy team

#

but theyre also bad

torn oyster
#

my C is weapon inspect

devout tusk
#

thats way more than before

torn oyster
#

used to be n but i re-adjusted how i have my keyboard

#

for hand cramping problems in the past

devout tusk
#

it used to be like a decent player every 5 games

quaint karma
#

like i often have enemies getting 20 kills

torn oyster
#

since i got an L desk as well its been easier to have it at a slight degree

quaint karma
#

but theres also tons of low levels

torn oyster
#

rather than basically playing upside down

devout tusk
#

i just have my keyboard straight like a normal person

#

i dont get the crazy angles lol

torn oyster
#

i have it at like a slight tilt for comfortability

#

but people who have theirs at almost a 90o angel

#

i just cant

devout tusk
#

i guess its a little tilted but like 5 degrees

#

yeah that shit bothers me fr

#

like why

torn oyster
#

i get why, you have access to more keys that way

alpine trail
#

bad posture maybe

torn oyster
#

having it in resting position reaching others with 1 hand is harder

#

rather having it at an angle where u can reach the other half of the keyboard

#

with the same hand

quaint karma
#

idk my keyboard is literally straight

#

anything else is just hella weird

alpine trail
#

mine is tilted i think

#

when i play

torn oyster
#

mines at like 35 when i play

#

straight when im not

quaint karma
devout tusk
#

i just need to be sitting in a super specific way to aim well so tilting the keyboard is not compatible

#

bros gonna go crazy with the kraber

torn oyster
#

i feel like once u get used to a specific way the keyboard is

#

even a slight change in direction ruins you

devout tusk
#

muscle memory lul

#

(they dont want you to know its really real)

torn oyster
#

i need to stop changing perifs because of it lol

#

i swapped from my glorious model o to my g703 and wanted to die

devout tusk
#

i KEEP buying mice and every time

torn oyster
#

changed my pads

devout tusk
#

i just go back to g305

#

every time

torn oyster
#

from slow to fast

devout tusk
#

slow pad makes my arm hurt

#

after a while

alpine trail
#

i cant use slow pads

torn oyster
#

#

quaint karma
#

i went from g703 to superlight like last year

torn oyster
#

i was going the cheap route

alpine trail
#

model o- is horrible bro

#

you saved yourself

quaint karma
#

then i went from superlight to sl12 and then i just bought a bunch of mice

#

πŸ’€

devout tusk
#

viper mini is just a better model o-

#

i bought a fantech aria cause people said its like a better g305, feels nothing like it :( i just want a good sensor in g305 shape

torn oyster
#

i like the feel of the 703 superlight

alpine trail
#

average glorious qc

torn oyster
#

but its still just to heavy for me

quaint karma
devout tusk
#

wtf happened

alpine trail
#

i wish i knew i dropped it and that happened

#

#

the shell cracked at first before that

#

torn oyster
quaint karma
#

alpine trail
#

devout tusk
#

quaint karma
#

#

i have like 3 g403s here

#

torn oyster
#

i had a g502 and that was a chonker to use

#

i had it for about 5 minutes and put it back in the box

alpine trail
#

g703 is 95 grams

#

😭

devout tusk
#

i used to use g700 OMEGALUL

torn oyster
#

the weight for the g703 is somewhere

#

that shit is not going in the mouse πŸ’€

alpine trail
#

i have a friend who uses g502 with weights

torn oyster
#

i do too. shes cracked at teh game but

devout tusk
#

chad

torn oyster
#

youre using a cinderblock

#

to aim

#

think she said her mouse is like

#

120g or something stupid

devout tusk
#

i dont get why heavy mice used to be the thing

alpine trail
#

zowie fk1 was what i used back then

#

was goat mouse for a while

torn oyster
#

i cant use mice with the thumbrest

#

i thought it would be a good switch but nah

alpine trail
#

thumbrest

torn oyster
#

that was all rounds uncomfortable to use

alpine trail
#

wym by that

#

like ergo mouse?

devout tusk
#

g700 is 130 either with or without battery, cant remember

#

like a little curve that goes under your thumb

torn oyster
#

alpine trail
#

this is the real aimer mouse

torn oyster
#

what is that LOL

alpine trail
#

it eeven has a stick for aim assist

torn oyster
#

devout tusk
#

wtf

torn oyster
#

no shot anyone is using that besides to meme

alpine trail
#

it has 147 ratings on amazon

#

somehow

devout tusk
#

you think that is algs legal

quaint karma
#

it has the gamer aesthetic but i dont think its meant

#

for games

torn oyster
#

theres oddly enough

#

147 videos on youtube for monetary value

#

how would you even use it for max performance

#

im looking at it and my brain already hurts

alpine trail
#

plug it into one of those mouse and keyboard converters and play on xbox one handed

devout tusk
#

my friend used to use this

alpine trail
#

thats so fire

devout tusk
#

it was so comfortable to palm

#

would meld with your hand
