apex

[devout tusk]

the players buying a gaming pc to play their videogames better dont need aa

[lethal wraith]

literally remove all AA and force people to use gyro

[worn bloom]

I keep seeing things about "just give mnk aim assist or bullet magnetism" but the fun is the raw aim

IDK if they never nerf aim assist, would giving MNK aim assistance be a good compromise for any of you?

Someone posted that Halo does it now

[devout tusk]

https://youtu.be/M5vkwgxi0Cw?t=406 aim assist was invented for this kind of player

[fringe girder]

just dont have AA for ranked oer something

i like how OW does it

but there isnt aim assist in competitive

[devout tusk]

i got recommended a short from this guy that was the most tilting thing in the world but he deleted it ig

this is his only apex vid

[worn bloom]

Imagine if Rev Q turned off aim assist lol. Would be the only reason I play Rev. Shhhhhiiii buy his heirloom too lul

[main merlin]

Blizzard wants ow comp to be huge again. Respawn doesn't care

So they won't nerf aa lol

[worn bloom]

Respawn is the most incompetent company with a big franchise and thats not hyperbole.

[weary mist]

They don't have to, just ban aa in comp

or limit it

leave casuals and ranked, cause aa is fine for the average joe

[lethal wraith]

should be crypto's passive

Off the Grid: Disable Aim Assist

[worn bloom]

They are so incompetent and they have to thank the OG devs for gifting them a great core because they can't do the bare minimum right

[worn bloom]

Lmfao I love it.

Buff abilities by turning off aim assist

[light rapids]

and i think all the warzone players that have been switching since wz2 is garbage also add lots of new somewhat decent controller players to the pool

[light rapids]

isnt there like one guy who got jade complete with gyro on controller

[little verge]

Yeah, pretty clean aim on gyro too.

[main merlin]

Wz2 bots crouch walk in apex unironically

Free 1 clip

Idk why bad cod players crouch walk

[zenith mulch]

no footsteps

in cod

[worn bloom]

The guy at the head of Respawn (JayBeibs or something) is a console pred. If he's anything like all these console players who think PC players give a damn about them than I see no hope in any changes.

People see Faide do crazy movement stuff and think everyone can do that lul

I can't even not deadslide!

[light rapids]

i disagree tbh
im somewhat of a casual since i dont really play ranked
or care about the pro scene
but its hella frustrating to die to aim assist still even tho you dont actually lose anything

[wintry cypress]

people see one person flick/jitteraim/have good recoil control/have good movement and immediately think mnk is OP

''but aim assist right?''

[little verge]

Yeah, insane rotational AA hurts casual gaming just as much as it does competitive. The only thing rotational is good for is stroking egos long enough to get people to buy cosmetics instead of get frustrated on getting repeatedly dunked and moving onto another game. Live service model monetization in a nutshell ruined FPS

[light rapids]

those kinda comments literally make my blood boil xD

[wintry cypress]

fr, its just ignorance thinking that everyone on mnk can do that

[light rapids]

bruh and when they comment like 'i play with it disabled bcs it throws my aim off' omfg

[copper forge]

Yh lol

[vague nexus]

lmao

[light rapids]

wahwah you have so many buttons + whole arm waaawahewe
at this point they are the crybabies that they make out mnk players to be

[wintry cypress]

i know someone that says the same thing, but he genuinely plays with aim assist off and hes pretty good

[light rapids]

people actually do that?

[vague nexus]

it like they think we use all of the buttons on our keyboard

[light rapids]

i mean for pubs its fine i guess
but ive yet to see someone turning it off when theres money on the line

[light rapids]

just get a 3rd hand

[wintry cypress]

not many, but he does

committed to the raw input grind

[worn bloom]

I was literally watching Albralalie play a few days ago on KBM and thought he looked cracked AF (never seen him really play on his stream), sad to see him switch but I dont think he looked as cracked as Lou did on roller

[vague nexus]

their joystick moves in all directions and they can select the speed they move in, and they can press to do an action

[little verge]

It's just competitive integrity. If everyone leaves M&K to play busted roller then everyone is on a level playing field. Balance achieved.

[worn bloom]

Whole arm aim BTW means more fatigue so more prone to mistakes and less time to grind lol

[wintry cypress]

alb switched to roller?

[little verge]

He's experimenting now apparently.

[wintry cypress]

bro lou is fucking CRACKED on roller

its wild

[light rapids]

nonono whole arm means superior control and nothing else !!11!1!!!1!

[worn bloom]

When I was on Roller for FN I swear I would play like 10 hours and I could keep going but the only thing stopping me was school lmfao

[worn bloom]

Yeah I think thats how this impromptu aim assist is broken argument started

[wintry cypress]

same but now i play on mnk for 3 hours and i get tired and i need water and food and 30 mins break and therapy

[light rapids]

i tried roller too and im fucking ass unironically
like <20m i can somewhat hit my shots
but having my middle finger press shoot while the thumb has to aim i dont got the coordination for that xD

i literally cant

[wintry cypress]

ye same i tried roller once, but my shit is broken

though i used to play bo2 on the ps3

so maybe i got some skill

[light rapids]

left stick workds fine tho
maybe i shoud just aim with left stick bcs like walking from left to right should be managable even with my braindamaged right thumb xD

[light rapids]

ive never really used roller wasnt allowed to have consoles n stuff like that as a child

i guess that also plays a role in how bad i am with roller

[worn bloom]

The only thing I miss from roller is the sound of all your hitmarkers

[zenith mulch]

same

[worn bloom]

And being super efficient with your shots

[wintry cypress]

bro hal is actually becoming nutty on roller

wtf

[worn bloom]

Hal is smooth AF on roller. I like him and Toosh. And Lou is nuts as well

[arctic violet]

I think i'm regretting switch to m&k 8 month ago after 3500h on pad omg

[thin raven]

gud

[wintry cypress]

Nah

Bad

[flint tartan]

Why would you swap after 3.5k

[zenith mulch]

aim assist

[arctic violet]

cause i was at my limit skill and i thought i couldn't improve anymore

[worn bloom]

Lowkey I regret switching 3.5 years ago. If I knew it was going to be the way it is now. But once you feel the freedom of MNK its hard to go back

[arctic violet]

also i was tired to buy joystick every 6 month for stick drift

[arctic violet]

yeah, m&k is so much fun and freedom and u really see ur skill

[worn bloom]

Thats how it should be for everyone but most ppl want to do the bare minimum.

Apex on roller is not the same game man. Just a walking turret

But I dont hate the player only the game. Once you lose enough 1v1's that you would have otherwise won on roller its hard not to think about switching

[devout tusk]

i hate the player

if they arent making money off the game but are on roller

extremely cringe behavior

[worn bloom]

Lol I only hate the player when they're delusional roller gang gang types

Playing on MNK is a handicap in this game. I dont blame for casual players just trying to have some ability to fight back in this game

I can't imagine how difficult this game is for anyone with little to no experience on MNK and no aim training

[flint tartan]

^^

if i had limited time to play id be on roller too

why waste time learning when i can just move thumb a little and track easily

[devout tusk]

yeah i dont hate the gamerdads and those guys but the nolifes that use roller like bruh

[unborn token]

small pb

but happy

[rustic creek]

gamerdad AA goes crazy ngl

[twin dirge]

Advanced VDIM pays off holy

[unborn token]

You doing advnced vdim

shit

gahdamn

[young pine]

I honestly think they could shadow nerf AA and no one will notice

[little verge]

Nah, they would. Because they already had.

AA accidentally got nerfed on console from 0.6 to 0.4 and it was a twitter dumpster fire of screaming at Respawn to fix it.

[young pine]

They think AA is nerfed every season and it never actually is

I don't think they did

[edgy crane]

How to say your reliant on aa without saying it

if you feel that its off

that means you have shit core aim

and just lets aa carry

[young pine]

That's 99.9% of apex players

They had to buff AA when crossplay came out cause they can't aim

Mnk casuals were winning

[main merlin]

Pretty sure AA has been the same since s0 just the good roller players started playing on pc around s5

[young pine]

I remember them changing AA and said they'd reverse it if they found it too strong

I'll see if I can dig it up

[edgy crane]

[elder fulcrum]

has anyone else been having pretty bad connection problems this season?\

[floral lodge]

just apex man

[twin dirge]

homie on the roller is missing people ad strafing

[arctic violet]

is that scenario too easy?

[unborn token]

31 cm satic

static

is pissing me off

[vague wind]

https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveApex/comments/13ifrfj/input_analysis_and_playerteam_performance_for/

once again another thread of lying with data

are you familiar with the concept of p-zombies, cause im starting to accept its credibility

"look guys, mnk can poke with charge rilfe, therefore, no differences between input" no difference you say, surely that must mean theres no difference in close quarters right? right?????

[light rapids]

holy thats a lot of graphs wtfffff

cba to read all of that tbh xD

[unborn token]

considering i suck hard at these scens

and i can barely grip mouse due to sweat

yes

its easy

i could get first but id have to grind it a bit more

[arctic violet]

okok it's not that difficult

[arctic violet]

me too i hate sweat

[unborn token]

this dogshit fucking scenario

i hate it'

[zenith mulch]

anyone elses game keep crashing when closing the opening ad thing

[unborn token]

dude im grinding static on 31 cm

am i mental or what

[zenith mulch]

I play all scenarios at about 30cm ish

[light rapids]

same xD

34cm on literally everything

[unborn token]

my acc is so shit

holy fuck

[unborn token]

balanced

[lethal wraith]

wait

the whistler actually missed

LMAO

that's uh, a nice pad right there, would be a shame if someone had a hitscan weapon with a 10x

[zenith mulch]

just had a teammate try to solo rat even though we were all up

[stray valley]

The top comment on this thread sums up the whole argument nicely
Anyone who's competent on both can agree that controller is objectively a better input in this game given how a majority of fights are played out
The issue is collecting relevant data that's specific to those fights

[unborn token]

Bro

i got the most ai

tdm game ever

every single enemy was a toddler on a roller

aint no way

[main merlin]

Bruh charge in pubs. 😈

[lethal wraith]

gotta do it for the mastery bruv

nah but I actually picked it up, because these freaks were just taking pot shots from up there

but we ended up fighting so long I never got to pop my ult and shoot back at them

[zenith mulch]

everyone is so sweaty now i swear

[lethal wraith]

https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/13ihs9e/i_probably_got_reported_for_this_lucky_spray/

[fair breach]

i dont understand how do you have 12k kills on wraith and peak only diamond

[lethal wraith]

yeah decent tracking, on PC this is literally celestial-tier

[fair breach]

how is that possible

[lethal wraith]

a lot of people play apex with their brain turned off

[fair breach]

does not add up

Br's really be rotting brains

[devout tusk]

nah i can do this people just dont practice antimovement scens

[quaint karma]

shut the fuck up

[worn bloom]

Lol last week I was on roller and I 1v1'd my friend (whose been playing roller since day 1 of apex) and I beat him 5-1 and he exited the gun range talking about "we warmed up bro lets play" 💀

[unborn token]

OF FUCKING COURSE

bro

[unborn token]

ALL THOSE

FUCKING

APES FO

DO

IS SAU

[worn bloom]

AND he still denies it being broken even though I picked it up after 3.5 years of not playing it and destroyed him

[unborn token]

IT DIDNT FO EVERYTHING FOR ME

I AM AT MY RUCKING

LIMIT

holy FUCKING SHIT

fucking

apes

[worn bloom]

And you know why? Because he wasnt playing 4-3 linear 104 FOV no deadzones

[quaint karma]

honestly whatever

bullet magnetism doesn’t mess with your aim

[ashen trench]

i feel attacked.

[quaint karma]

just your hit reg

[quaint karma]

giving mnk bullet magnetism would instantly make the game more fair

[worn bloom]

Whats the exact mechanism that Halo has? Is that bullet magnetism?

At this point, DO SOMETHING looooool

[quaint karma]

no

halo has straight up rotational aa and slowdown on mnk

[north gazelle]

theres like 50 entries

[worn bloom]

I think Destiny is the one with it maybe

[worn bloom]

Sounds awful tbh

[quaint karma]

yeah destiny has bullet magnetism

[north gazelle]

its aids

u will get hit behind walls

[quaint karma]

💀

[north gazelle]

sniping is beyond easy

u feel like a god tho

[main merlin]

destiny has different AA values on different weapon types too

[north gazelle]

lol

[quaint karma]

imagine it smgs had .1 AA

if

[main merlin]

my friend has like 4k+ hours on d2

Soloq is the worst

I need a team :/

[carmine viper]

Q into tokyo servers where the good teammate lottery is anecdotally better

[unborn token]

Dude

We decide to push some team

Then we get pinched and I am like oh we just go this way and valk ult out

We end up doing that

What does my random loba do midway? GO IN A BUILDING TO LOOT

WE ARE 3X PURPLE W 4 BATS EACH

No coms on if he needs anything

Next on the valk ult DUDE IS WONDERING AROUND ME LIKE A CREATURE

So I fucking left him

Like how tf where those people even masters in prev seasons 😭😭😭😭😭😭

And the cherry on top is the fact that we had a whole poi to ourselves but he landed on my friend :))))))))

[zenith mulch]

i love randos

they never split

[carmine viper]

Boosted or shared account

[unborn token]

3 am Greek snack of the day

Gyros with fries

[unborn token]

Yes

[carmine viper]

And if you dont show a pic you are cheating 100 percent

[unborn token]

It's called skepasth

It's gyros but like a sandwich

[rustic creek]

Greek spot right next to we’re I live

So good

[unborn token]

[carmine viper]

Do you eat it with tzatziki sauce ?

[unborn token]

It comes w other sauce

Chicken and tzatziki r kinda

Weird combo

[rustic creek]

Wha

[unborn token]

[lethal wraith]

this game is so fucking bad with audio

I'm so tired of dying, because someone got to 1clip me in the back

[wintry cypress]

i will always wonder how theres people 100 levels above me that dont even know how to shoot their gun

[unborn token]

Speaking of which

Some horizon literally pulled up NEXT TO ME

And I didn't hear a fucking thing

By the time I realised there was a dude on me I was half hp

And I hit him for 100 and died

Aaa game

My Valo friend literally goes like dude how can you play this game competitive

[carmine viper]

I don't even hear octane pads anymore

It's like prenerf again

[unborn token]

Game is just so fucking bad

[worn bloom]

Guys HisWattson has toggle ADS

Is that the norm? Its always the default on every game

But I change it to hold ADS

It makes sense having it on toggle tho. So youre not putting extra force while aiming

Thoughts?

[zenith mulch]

hold is snappier and more responsive

imo

most people use hold that's for sure

[unborn token]

It's preference

It doesn't matter

[lethal wraith]

toggle feels way too slow for apex, at least for me

especially for shotguns

classic move, tbh I find that barely anyone does stuff like this

or when dropping on people no one hits the mountains

[devout tusk]

toggle gang

[lethal wraith]

Horizon's audio is pretty fucked I think

the fact that her footsteps are synced with her low grav stride is so dumb too

I bet that's part of it

[unborn token]

Propably ye

[lethal wraith]

LMAO

delusional

[unborn token]

DUDE I JUST WANT TO KNOW HOW TF IS IT ALMOST 5 AGAIN AND I AM STILL AWAKE

[unborn token]

Which the ai FUCKING DOES FOR HIM

Like are they all fucking dumb or what

I cannot fucking stand the shitty casual community

[misty ferry]

when she hits a fat slide jump on you there is literally zero audio until she lands and it's hushed on her passive

[unborn token]

Yeah

Horizons full swinging you is the dumbest shit ever

You literally have no fucking idea

[lethal wraith]

browse r/apexlegends for a bit to get braindamage

[unborn token]

Until you have visible confirmation

[unborn token]

No dude

I will fucking lose my mind

[misty ferry]

honestly it's hilarious how much of an advantage certain characters have that isn't completely tangible

[unborn token]

I wanna get up and play overwatch

[misty ferry]

like shit how wraith's hitbox and strafe is still significantly harder than like a pathfinder

[unborn token]

But I don't wanna play alone

[unborn token]

Tbh all these stuff don't matter anymore

If you play the game

Like daily

[misty ferry]

yeah i agree

[unborn token]

For a significant time

There is no real diff

Propably to the average shitter

That touches the game every 2 moon rises

Yeah

I saw average mnk player btw today

From my fuse random

I wanted to bleach my eyes

[misty ferry]

omg

you reminded me

[unborn token]

Dude missed half of his mag at a guy looting still almost

[misty ferry]

i had the worst fucking teammate ever clutch out a 1v5 in pubs

and i was losing my mind

[unborn token]

Then ran with his gun out like a bot for

Idfk how long

And proceeded to miss every single fucking shot on the dude right next to him going in a straight line

[lethal wraith]

bro he's farming weapon mastery clearly

[unborn token]

Like

It's fucking insane

Those people

[misty ferry]

the fucker looked like a controller player in smoke but got a fucking team wipe

[unborn token]

Have no

And I really mean

NO

Fucking chance

To compete

Against the roller

Dude

You know they are bad

When they reload more than 3 times on a single person

And set person is already low

It isn't like they r trading dmg

Like the guy can genuinely be 50 HP the dude will hit 10 dmg out of an entire mag and reload and do the same shit again

[misty ferry]

the life of a casual player

[unborn token]

I had the brilliant idea to

Play w people from the apex server

[misty ferry]

lmao

[unborn token]

Homie coms nothing for an entire fight

Is dead with 72 dmg

[devout tusk]

i did that once and it actually went p well

prob got lucky

[misty ferry]

i've really only ever solo queued

[unborn token]

And I'm on 700 ish

On a single fight

-_

[unborn token]

I've had insane people

Throughout

[misty ferry]

need to find some small community of actually good players

[unborn token]

But

They r so rare

It's like a fucking gem istg

The majority is like complete fucking ai

[misty ferry]

and then just barge my way in there so i can actually improve

[unborn token]

And the ones that are " good "

Are like

Just bad

I cannot stand soloq

I mean I can definitely pull my own weight and I am fully able to 1v3 but like

It's a team game at the end of the day

If your team consists of billy the 10 year old toddler on the roller and Mr I have 50 kids in the oil fields

You are fucking done for

[vivid socket]

can someone help me i need some help chaging ads to hipfire sense

Super satisfying to use

[lethal wraith]

just keep doing smoothness basically

[surreal bough]

Ya great weapon to challenge those roller smg users

[lethal wraith]

PK always one of the most satisfying guns

this tracking is still peak for me

[surreal bough]

damn nice tracking, he almost gave you that 5 meter deleter

[carmine viper]

This is facts

[lethal wraith]

ye he was basically full hp after shield swapping

[torn oyster]

i hate ranked so much

[dull falcon]

yessir even tho its like 100 points

[calm shuttle]

how to use these things

how to start

[dull falcon]

[calm shuttle]

how to practice, a software or a webpage? I just came here and I'm not very familiar with English

@quaint karma if you had to pick like 2 of the accuracy corrections for each distance( far , mid , close) which is better

[dull falcon]

pj can you 1v1 rn ( just practice)

also if anyone else is free for 1v1s ( practice ) im desperate uh hmu

[calm shuttle]

[fair breach]

My teammates always tell not never spilt but when i watch high lvl guys they always do. Why?

[worn bloom]

If the place is contested you hold hands but if its empty than splitting is more efficient

This guy barely strafed but i'm overcompensating my aim and I am whiffing a lot of easy shots. This should have been a one clip tbh and this is something I noticed while playing roller that people end up looking very stationary. So when I'm on KBM its not the players that are moving a lot, its me that is. I need to learn how to stop that. Working against myself.

Anybody have advice on this?

[unborn token]

Oh god

[unborn token]

6*

About to be 7 soon

[calm shuttle]

used to keyboard or game handles,Is there a big difference

I mean, in terms of shooting accuracy

[calm shuttle]

This guy's movements are so impressive. If it were for me, I wouldn't be able to kill him

[torn oyster]

gainin.

such a long ranked sesh today

[turbid cape]

I know if you get into an SMG fight against a roller at 10m range you're fucked, but if you do find yourself in this situation, is anti mirror the best way to try compete against their aim assist?

and what about jumping? How well does aim assist track against that if the roller player has "bad aim"

[dull falcon]

he just got 20kills in ranked

but idk if anyone he killed was above like diamond rank

[pallid horizon]

@floral lodge bonuses for kp are calculated after the game

I think

[floral lodge]

yeah ik its just so weird seeing all that and still minus tho

[lethal wraith]

damn I forgot how fun Titanfall is, should play it more

[fair trellis]

is northstar still alive?

[lethal wraith]

should be yeah

[floral lodge]

average solo q team mates

[lethal wraith]

join them

[fair trellis]

the ranked system is fine

[lapis moat]

announcing r5 is dead

With the new update the game now:

Crashes on round end (15 players, 10 gets kicked on round end)

Forced gibby on the china server, this means whatever strafes you learn on their arent applicable in game cuz of the hitbox diff, and also the skill gap is lower so expect to get 3pumped by bots

Removed controllersummary, can no longer check who's on controller

And 2/3 of the playerbase is now gone

back to control for us

[fair trellis]

so the permanent mixtape gamemode thats being announced on the 18th will that be removed from the main rotation?

into a separate gamelist

its getting boring getting gun run and wanting to alt f4 or go into firing range

or is it even permanent lol

Vote and you might be able to play it to your heart's content throughout the duration of the event.

nvm im fucking uninstalling

cant play what i want im gone

[twilit hawk]

Don’t they just need to roll back to an earlier 1v1 version? Didn’t all the issues appear with the new version (lifeline as character etc.) or is something else causing issues?

[floral lodge]

this was a good ranked ending

zone 5 8 squads

these kinda games are really fun

and I had some solo q team mates that had limbs also thats a plus

[fair trellis]

did they fight or did people rat until end

[floral lodge]

a lot of poking and trades

but no one really pushes knocks

cause at that point you're just giving yourself up

like its just not worth pushing knocks sometimes in zones like that most times another team will do it for you anyway

[lethal wraith]

that's why if you can get into an ending like that with legends like fuse/maggie/rampart you can destroy people so hard

[floral lodge]

true

I just wanna get 1k kills on valk rn

idk who to play after I will see

[lethal wraith]

rampart p fun rn, especially with evacs

[light rapids]

pathfinder

[floral lodge]

already finished getting 1k on path

[light rapids]

get moreeeee

literally the most fun legend in the whole game

[floral lodge]

yeah I might I got kinda bored of wraith after such a long time and in comp I played bang mainly

but for pubs and just messing around I will stay with path for a while

[light rapids]

been maining bang since last season too

the remove aim assist passive ist just too good xD

[floral lodge]

or I might try learn a zone legend in ranked or something idk cause I won't be playing comp much longer

or apex in general

[edgy crane]

Just dont take rampart from me 🙃

[hollow anchor]

everyones a wannabe sweet now

[lethal wraith]

I mean

it works

[hollow anchor]

yea I know people who are hardstuck diamonds that have touched pred this szn

crazy\

[lethal wraith]

probably won't last long

pred cap will probably go high

[hollow anchor]

yea 2 1/2 months of this = pred cap at 3 million+

its alr 40k

[lethal wraith]

and the gains are pretty crippled too lmao

[hollow anchor]

yea I fucked my placements so I got placed silver but I went from silver-d3 in like 1 1/2 days lmao

the system is like oh you had a bad match this next match will be a bot lobby with +400 have fun buddy

[lethal wraith]

ngl I just ape

[hollow anchor]

same

the amount of 20 squad kill games ive had this szn alr is insane

[lethal wraith]

I guess it's a really decent time if you want to learn to teamfight

because you lose nothing + wherever you go you're always at your skill level

[hollow anchor]

yea the static -35 was a real botch move

[zenith mulch]

Facts

[zenith mulch]

Same but my teammates never back me up enough

What's insane is how everyone is playing the long game now

The only time I had less than 10 squads in circle 3 was when my team killed 3 of them

[light rapids]

[zenith mulch]

facts

[vague nexus]

😂😂😂

[worn bloom]

These are the best games!

Anytime the final circle ends on Gardens in Olympus = those games are bangers

[misty ferry]

i can see it

ngl

took me 12 hours to get masters from d4 after not being d1 my entire career 💀

[devout tusk]

Love gardens

Olympus pois are just so fun to fight in generally

Those yellow buldings

Sheesh

[hollow anchor]

My battlecord randoms are actually braindead. Guess I gotta wait til my squad gets on lmao

[thin raven]

https://youtu.be/imIEEzXFy_U?t=100
cracked gameplay

[zenith mulch]

it started where the guy missed every shot

idk if that's you or not but rip

[wary star]

those are some

sad kraber shots

3:30

i cringed so hard

[zenith mulch]

Better than me unfortunately :(

I picked up a kraber once in this game and whiffed every shot

Is it whiffed? Wiffed? Idk

[thin raven]

not me haha

[zenith mulch]

good lol

[thin raven]

guys has insane ego

[zenith mulch]

yea lol

I was like, cracked gameplay? sharing among top aimers? not cracked at all compared to what I've seen here

[edgy crane]

• hes roller

[zenith mulch]

I guesed as much

[shrewd pollen]

Now that im back on mnk and i bought a new mousepad

Oof

Sad

[lethal wraith]

wtf is this audio

literally nothing into some slide noise when Valk is already there

[zenith mulch]

billion dollar game

[young pine]

They're saving all the audio for a legends that will have enhanced audio abilities

[lethal wraith]

aqrw35AEWdszc vcvbgfiuk [fgipuv789./bjk, m

this game is actually fucking unplayable nofill

I 1v3 a squad

and then I don't hear the 3rd party walking up on me

actually braindead game for kids

[worn bloom]

When do you guys think they will add a legend that has a flash bang? Or a legend that has a Ana from OW anti-throwable that doesnt let you heal? Its only a matter of time lol

[young pine]

I think they should change bangs smoke to a flash bang

[worn bloom]

Just to be clear THERE SHOULD BE NO FLASH BANGS IN THIS GAME LOL

[young pine]

Or take digis out of the game, because having 1 item negate a whole ability without you even knowing is some hot ass

[lethal wraith]

where audio? someone tell me

[shrewd pollen]

Here there was

[young pine]

Too much audio clutter. The looting and kill leader take up too much noise

[lethal wraith]

I mean actual audio btw not like a millisecond of a noise

[shrewd pollen]

I Heard the foots sound

[young pine]

It's there it's just over shadowed by other shit is what I'm saying

[shrewd pollen]

Agree, for the reason i removed the voiceline

[lethal wraith]

where do you hear the footstep sounds?

what time

[wintry cypress]

yikes wtf

[lethal wraith]

literally can't hear anything and I'm rewatching it

also it's much easier to tell now too, because of hindsight and paying like 10 times the attention

[shrewd pollen]

Just u started looting the 2nd box

[worn bloom]

You can hear footsteps as soon as 9 seconds and upto the point where you got shot BUT during a game things like that arent super obvious honestly. Your looting sounds are loud for no reason too

[young pine]

Between the kill leader and looting

[wintry cypress]

i heard the footsteps like 1 second before u got shot at

[young pine]

You can faintly hear it

[wintry cypress]

but the audio clutter is unreal

[worn bloom]

Like we need settings to turn off unnecessary sound effects, ambience, and other things

[young pine]

I don't even know why looting has audio tbh

[wintry cypress]

''satisfaction''

[shrewd pollen]

I mean its just impossible to be reactive in 2 secs unless u arent a very good player

[wintry cypress]

why do u think mfs loot all game

[worn bloom]

OMG GOLD SCAR

[wintry cypress]

exactly lol

*click

satisfying sound

dopamine

[lethal wraith]

even if that's the case that's way too late

I'm hearing maybe a pad sound?

[worn bloom]

No loot ever felt better to have than the legendary GOLD SCAR

[lethal wraith]

barely audible though

ballistic ult and kill leader audio clutter is unreal

but I guess that's what you get when your devs are thumb twiddling casuals

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[shrewd pollen]

Yeh i know, apex has a terribile sound. I mean u can hear perfectly a few shots from the other side of the map but u cant hear the people that is coming to fight

[worn bloom]

There TVs probably get bass boosted audio steps FR FR

[shrewd pollen]

I think they Just entered from the Window on first floor

[shrewd pollen]

@lethal wraith

Then they come down to kill u

[lethal wraith]

that's where the door entryway is

https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveApex/comments/13jahmp/36_days_left_in_the_season_and_this_is_the/

🤔

really need a better game to play

[wintry cypress]

pubs and ltms

lol

[lethal wraith]

Apex is basically a meme for solo play

[main merlin]

Casual mnk is dying soo hard in this game rn

[wintry cypress]

and thats why you dont play this shit competitively

[minor birch]

1v1 warmup

[worn bloom]

Honestly OW2 looking good

[wintry cypress]

the only place for skill expression in apex rn seems to be pubs

[worn bloom]

Fun weapons, high TTK is all I want

[main merlin]

You run into 3 stack handholders on roller in pubs who hold buildings now

[lethal wraith]

yeah

maybe if this game wasn't full of fucking controller players

and people actually had to aim

maybe then it would be fun to play as an mnk player

[worn bloom]

I'm becoming a mixtape main but highkey they need to remove gun run or reduce its time so I dont have to play it twice in a row

[lethal wraith]

but nah, literally every enemy I meet has to be celestial-reactivity

because why the fuck not

[worn bloom]

Also that portal map is awful for TDM

[main merlin]

Usually roller players who handhold that hard are garbage tbh

[wintry cypress]

yeah fr

and remove WE control

that shit is ass

[young pine]

Apex is so bad. It's so good at the same time tho. No other game feels as good mechinically

[wintry cypress]

gunrun is cool but i dont wanna play it back to back

[young pine]

I tired ow2 and it's just boring

[wintry cypress]

yeah but the fact that it feels good mechanically is overshadowed by SO MANY problems

[wintry cypress]

i liked ow2 but i hated the hero balancing

thats why i stopped playing it tbh

[thin raven]

what happened to the finals?

[young pine]

Also ow2 is toxic af. I get flamed in quick play or w/e

[flint tartan]

swapping from shitty eaclient to steam

does apex use steam name?

[wintry cypress]

honestly with cs2 releasing this summer its looking nice, 1 taps look satisfying af

but its not the same as apex

[thin raven]

ye

[flint tartan]

ty

they cant force name change me now then

[wintry cypress]

i need something thats really fcking satysfying like apex, with good gunplay and higher ttk so i can reactively track

[young pine]

That's the dream

Don't think it's ever gonna happen tho

[wary star]

did you play xdefiant?

i really liked xdefiant

[wintry cypress]

i did

yeah i liked it in the beginning but it started becoming annoying towards the end

people learning how to play

at one point everyone was just crouch slidejumping at you

and they just insta kill u cause the servers were bad

but yeah the ttk is too low for my liking

other than that pretty fun tho

ill prob still play it from time to time when it comes out

[wary star]

yeah

servers were really bad

[worn bloom]

Xdefiant was fun but let me tell you. It was better on roller

[wary star]

and so was the net code

but some dev told me it's going to get better

i found a new good fps game

[worn bloom]

SO I was surprised to hear ppl complaining that aim assist was weak on their when all my lobbies at roller top fragging and I started doing better on roller

[wary star]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uywWQTuVqw4

but it will be a while

till it's out

[worn bloom]

But thankfully they have input based matchmaking

Xdefiant wont replace Apex but it will replace COD for me at least

Not buying a yearly game anymore

[wintry cypress]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/907484009360162846/1100570812618129511/Desktop_2023.04.26_-_00.51.11.02.DVR-00.02.21.499-00.02.28.499.mp4

look at this

LMAO

[wary star]

LOL

jubfadsf;lkasz

that was me

first day

[zenith mulch]

I love getting killed by players much better than me

[young pine]

It was weak compared to the AAA titles

[wintry cypress]

i unpeeked for like 2 whole seconds

[wary star]

fortnite is working on a FPS perspective

[worn bloom]

Thats the thing tho.. it still felt strong and sticky lol

Fortnite new ranked mode looking good. Warzone has a ranked mode looks fun. BR needs a shakeup

[young pine]

controller players are idiots man. They're so used to the game aiming for them

[wary star]

i don't want to play warzone tbh

i've heard aa is worse there

than apex

[wintry cypress]

neither do i

[worn bloom]

Warzone has a lower TTK so high aim assist isnt that strong but yeah its magnetic I heard

[zenith mulch]

wrong

[young pine]

It is worse. Specially since the ttk is so quick

[zenith mulch]

warzone has stronger AA than apex

[wary star]

i like how warzone looks and the gunplay but i've just started hating forced input mixed matchmaking with one input having a script that aims for them

[zenith mulch]

you can touch neither stick, and if someone drops in front of you, it will pull crosshair all the way down

[worn bloom]

No im saying lower TTK makes the stronger aim assist not as a problem

Aim assist is 'stronger' or more effective in games with higher TTK

[zenith mulch]

true

[young pine]

Also you cannot play warzone solo. If you think 3 stacking is rough, everyone on warzone is nut to butt sweating their asses off

[wary star]

overwatch 2 comp doesn't have aim assist on pc lobbies right?

[worn bloom]

Unless they changed the Warzone TTK

[wintry cypress]

no

i dont think so

[wary star]

i might reinstall it

[worn bloom]

Its trios only? Dang one thing I miss about FN is solos

[little verge]

That may be the case but Warzone rotational is also far scarier than Apex. Like Apex is soft aimbot but CoD is straight up aimbot.

[zenith mulch]

wz has solos usually

[wary star]

but me and some of my friends are probably going to play fortnite ranked LOL

[young pine]

I wouldn't wish warzone solos on anyone. No one moves. They just sit in random spots and next thing you know you're dead

[zenith mulch]

yea warzone is one of the worst BR's out there

am I the only one who hates kings canyon?

[worn bloom]

If I was still cracked I would play FN ranked. Those tourneys were always fun AF when you get stacked lobbies with like 40-60 ppl final circle

[wintry cypress]

i love KC for pubs cause of the action

but the loot is still kinda shit

[zenith mulch]

ranked

[wintry cypress]

oh yeah nah

ranked KC is horrible

[zenith mulch]

it's so bad

like worse than stormpoint and broken moon by far

[young pine]

Kc ranked is bad. Not as bad as Olympus

But bad

[zenith mulch]

no way

[wintry cypress]

nah oly is better man

[zenith mulch]

KC ranked is the worst I've played

[young pine]

No shot

[zenith mulch]

smallest map, smallest first circle, no loot

no loot anywhere I swear

squads everywhere

I'm not a great player

[young pine]

Olympus if you go anywhere near the middle of the map you'll get like 15TH partied

Its too small

[worn bloom]

Olympus needs to change Hammond labs area. Its a 8 party fight every match

[young pine]

^

[worn bloom]

I tell ppl avoid that area but everyone always goes towards the sounds.

[young pine]

💯

[worn bloom]

Its too EZ to get flanked

[young pine]

Everyone avoids it until they can 3rd

And it snowballs

[wintry cypress]

yup

people pouring in from literally all sides of the map

[worn bloom]

Not even kidding. Most problematic area and the fights arent fun at all

[wary star]

nobody lands here

free estate

literally land there, loot fast and clean up energy, take balloon to gardens

you will have decent amount of kills and placement

then play positioning

if zone pulls west, clear energy and take rift

[wintry cypress]

fuck bro

static makes my hand and arm so tired

shit feels numb

[slim zenith]

I will get plat in everything before I get gold static lol

[zenith mulch]

thank god it's not just me

meant the one below it but earlier i did static and was dying

[wintry cypress]

Bro fr

Everything feels fine but then i get to static and my aim start breaking down and my arm and hand start shriveling up

[wintry cypress]

I'll prob get nova plaza before master pasu lol

Im like 7 kills off master actually for pasu

But i fuckin suck at pasu

[wintry cypress]

Yeah man, i do like 20 mins of static but half of the way through i just start dying

Doesnt help that i have an insane amount of brainfog today either

[slim zenith]

My hand starts shaking if I concentrate on aiming for too long

I can do like 2 tracking scens at a time

[wintry cypress]

Bruh im convinced i did half my static on autopilot today

I was just looking at my screen

Barely even remember the individual runs

[slim zenith]

All I know is I got plat reactive tracking before gold static

kekw

[zenith mulch]

I shake so much on tracking I swear

[slim zenith]

I feel you

[zenith mulch]

I had nearly full gold tracking before I had bronze static lol

[slim zenith]

lol

[zenith mulch]

that was my first bench tho lol

[slim zenith]

I'm only like 3 days into aim training though, so I'm not too worried rn

[zenith mulch]

haven't you been in this server for weeks/months?

[slim zenith]

I have

But not done benches

More or less just hanging around here

[vale lynx]

Hello im a little overhelmed by the benchmark system. I have been only playing the voltaic apex playlist on kovaak so far. Where can I find this "static" training for example?

And are there benchmarks for the playlist aswell?

[wintry cypress]

I had the same last couple weeks cause i took a break but now my scores are going up again

And my shit feels good

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/982096553550446655/1108072306019934291/Replay_2023-05-16_02-44-51-00.01.25.417-00.01.29.341-50mb.mp4

This was pretty clean

[zenith mulch]

I've been practicing lol

[wintry cypress]

Same same

Less apex more kovaaks

Since ranked pissing me off

[zenith mulch]

fair

I want to get plat complete lol

[wintry cypress]

U got that

My goal since i started vt has been GM lol

And im kinda close?

At least on vt plaza i am

[inland spruce]

What do you guys cap your fps at in apex?

[slim zenith]

I cap it at 120
(I don't get over 50)

[inland spruce]

O hey icedcoffee

im abandoning ow2 for a while

That game is so bad rn

[wintry cypress]

At my refresh rate so 165

[slim zenith]

It is

Fucking shit game

[wintry cypress]

But apparently theres performance issues atm with above 165

[slim zenith]

I've been jumping around the 4 main shooter games

[inland spruce]

Oh it's above 165? I had mine capped at 180 so maybe that's why I'm getting random stutters

[wintry cypress]

Yep

Its broken atm

Itll prob get fixed but its happened in the past where above a certain fps the game just doesnt wanna work

[inland spruce]

If only blizzard would remove 1-shot heroes and balance proj. Dps before randomly buffing tank heroes to inorganically force meta shifts

[inland spruce]

Thx gamer I'll cap mine at 165

It's weird, 180fps in ow feels horrible but it feels fine in apex

So I'm sure 165 will feel alr in apex too

Need 10 more levels to unlock ranked

[slim zenith]

I need to optimize my apex

[inland spruce]

Im just playing tdm and control maps to get used to the gunplay rn. Is there a weapons meta?

[slim zenith]

It is a fun game

[wintry cypress]

Sometimes

[slim zenith]

I actually enjoy apex

Like if I get my fps up shit would be my main game

[wintry cypress]

I do mostly as well, but when it comes to ranked all that enjoyment goes out the window 💀

[slim zenith]

I just ape in ranked

But yeah

[wintry cypress]

Same

[inland spruce]

Is apex ranked unfun in all ranks or just high ranks?

[wintry cypress]

Not doable with current system tbh

Even if ur lp is up, your mental is down

[slim zenith]

There is no mm

You can get preds as a silver

[wintry cypress]

Theres MMR in ranked rn

So if the game thinks you have dia skill level youll face those people in ANY rank

[inland spruce]

Damn that's weird

But that's how mm works in ow so...

[slim zenith]

Bro I played a game today and got killed by pred #10

Shit wasn't fun

But bro also sucked

[wintry cypress]

Yeah i feel that

[slim zenith]

Like he had red evo and I had blue and somehow I almost killed him

[wintry cypress]

Idk theres just no reason to have MMR in a ranked playlist imo

[slim zenith]

In a BR game that seems kinda stupid

[inland spruce]

Ye ranked br is kind of a meme lol

At least mechanics matter tho

[wintry cypress]

Kinda

[inland spruce]

If apex had a ranked tdm or control game mode that would be fun

[inland spruce]

At least i don't get randomly 1-shot by hanzo players who aren't even aiming at me

O yeah, I almost have enough coins to unlock a new character, which one would you guys suggest I buy?

I think I only have the basic characters and octane

I usually run bloodhound

[slim zenith]

Seer

[inland spruce]

I'll look into seer

Thx gamer

Seer sounds pretty op

[slim zenith]

He has been meta for a while

[inland spruce]

I'll definitely pick him up next, thx again gamer, it should be an ez transition considering I main bloodhound atm

[slim zenith]

Bloodhound is pretty fun

I am currently enjoying doing some toomfoolery with balistic

[wintry cypress]

AHAHAHA

True

I havent even put that much time into ow and i feel that

[slim zenith]

I've put too much time into it

[half salmon]

mmr in ranked?

never heard of it

still watching bronze players getting slaughtered by preds

[floral lodge]

yeah

and thats a product of the new mmr system

[wintry cypress]

yup

[slim zenith]

I do find pubs kinda fun though

[torn oyster]

Leaving work early while higher market team is here

Let's gooo

[slim zenith]

Sheeesh

[wintry cypress]

Yeah pubs are nice most of the time

[slim zenith]

I've been playing balistic without using tac

[half salmon]

huh why

his q can easily win you 1v1s and apply pressure

ur just shooting urself in the foot if ur not utilizing it at all

[slim zenith]

Idk

I just don't feel like it is as fun to fight someone who can't shoot

[half salmon]

[zenith mulch]

5 kills + 2k damage and a win, I only get 231, the bonus was only 31 for 5 kills, plus some assists I forgot how many

Im silver 1 so it's not like it was super below my rank

like wtf

whats the point of getting kills if it barely helps

I also revived both teammates

[half salmon]

well if you dont go for kills then end zone is gonna be absolutely hell with 20 rats

[slim zenith]

Only thing I like is end zone

It is kinda fun when there are more than 2 squads zone 2

[zenith mulch]

facts

[half salmon]

ive been playing way more endzones this season just because everyone is a sweet wannabe nowadays

its really fun but like they gotta do something abt rats

[zenith mulch]

they need to make kills factor into it

2nd place no kills shouldn't net gain LP

anyone can do that

[half salmon]

just top 10 is already +20
