apex

[quaint karma]

i mean 25h should be enough tbh

idk

when i played doom igot used to the binds within like an hour or 2

cuz theres like 10 guns

in bf3 i used to swap to my secondary on e

and primary was 1

idk what 2 was tbh

💀

cuz i got it from cod4

where you would swap weapons on e by defauly

default

and iwas so used to that i wanted to keep it

[devout tusk]

well its more that i was used to being able to do stuff that i cant if im pressing 1 or 2

like if im pressing 1 im taking my finger off a yknow

so id go to swap while strafing that way or redirecting

and be like wtf i cant press these at the same time thats wack

[true ravine]

any rankers on plat wanting to play?

[light rapids]

i used to scrollwheel weapon swap
before tapstrafing was discovered

[pastel garden]

I thought I was the only cycle on C user 👀 my friends all called me crazy for that bind

[light rapids]

rightfully so

how does one even get a habit like that

[edgy crane]

ikr

[edgy crane]

cus its a easy key to press

[light rapids]

but like isnt c default keybind for sliding in most games

i'd never get the idea to rebind slide so i can weapon swap on that key

[half salmon]

i always rebind crouch/slide to shift

minecraft habit

[light rapids]

i got hold crouch on shift cuz of that

[half salmon]

my pinky just naturally rests on shift

[light rapids]

but toggle crouch/slide always on c

[quaint karma]

i crouch on ctrl

[edgy crane]

same

[edgy crane]

i would if but i dont wanna fuck my superglide timing up

[light rapids]

double bind it then

[raven hull]

v Crouch supremacy

[edgy crane]

💀

[raven hull]

i would do b but my hands are small so its actually hard to spread my hand that wide lmao

[delicate crag]

i used ctrl in every game until I figured out how uncomfortable it is for crouch spamming compared to "c"

[devout tusk]

Crouch spamming i use ctrl

Idk how youre strafing and pressing c

[dull falcon]

@quaint karma dobu actually play aimlabs with a controller

[pastel garden]

For me the C comes from league muscle memory actually, just one row down

In league my hands sit on QWER but have to reach for DF for summoner spells

It’s the same muscle memory just one row down with majority of my fingers on ASD, then reaching down to C

And since I reach down to C I put my superglide key on V since I don’t use V to melee

[vague nexus]

Mb1 for crouch is goated ngl

[dull falcon]

Doki play on controller

[twin dirge]

my greatest fear is ending up in one of these

[quaint karma]

wym

[lapis moat]

dont have a working roller

[worn bloom]

I wish I had the dexterity to press the bottom row of keys with my thumb, would be goated. Pressing C with pointer finger gets in the way of strafing

Right now I have ‘hold crouch’ on ctrl for sliding, spamming and C for pressing for supergliding. It’s been so good so far

[pastel garden]

It’s gonna sound weird lol but I swear typing games help with keyboard dexterity

Or other games that have a lot of keyboard inputs required that differ from the standard WASD etc just to get your hands used to moving in different ways across your keyboard

[wintry cypress]

oh my god

bro been grinding

[unborn token]

the sleep buff

man

ong frfr ( i suck )

[dull falcon]

Ill try to snipe ur pb soon

[wintry cypress]

wtf did they do to ranked

[unborn token]

i mean

go for it

[unborn token]

I HAD TO RESET MY FUCKING MOUSE

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

@dull falcon

[worn bloom]

Damn, look at the consistency

[worn bloom]

What do you mean

[unborn token]

i will get a top 40

nah i will pb this istfg

[wintry cypress]

feels weird in terms of matchmaking

[unborn token]

soon

[flint grotto]

You got that shit

Trust

Something that helped me was recognizing how the bot strafes

[unborn token]

yeah

[flint grotto]

It almost strafes in an arc

Like a circle

Except for when it hits the player box

Then it acts like a close strafe

[unborn token]

the problem is my mouse space

i cannot keep tracking it without reseting

[flint grotto]

What cm?

[unborn token]

even on 31

[flint grotto]

Also yeha youll beed to reset

even i havebto

You just reset when you get the chance

Like when you know the bot is gonna do a weird strafe

Cuz sometimes uou xan tell

If cannot understand what i type, ask me to fix it

[unborn token]

nah i understand

i legit

cant

even on 15 cm

[flint grotto]

Yeah you have to reset a lot

Its fine

Just time them well

And dont be afraid to play at the bottom of your pad

Cuz of drift

[unborn token]

FFS

I AM

bc i cant track there

i dont have space on the desk

[flint grotto]

Yeah, neither do i tbh, my arm hangs off the desk

I just dont reset unless i absolutely need to

[young pine]

7cm arc??

[pastel garden]

i just got 80.1 on this 👀

[unborn token]

yeah nice

aint no way im gonna pb this

im done

not today

had a pb run misstimed reset

just nah

will onlky waste time

I AAAM FUCKINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSING IT

I JUST KEEEEEEEEEEP RESETING BRO

aAAAAAAAAAAAA

I go for it tmrw

[steep mist]

Hey all - is anyone available to jump on a quick discord call to go over some voltaic questions regarding apex training? Not new to apex or aim training but I am new to the benchmarks.

[dull falcon]

I could

[dull falcon]

@steep mist

[surreal bough]

what cm do you guys play Apex

[young pine]

37-43

Wanna eventually run like 32

[surreal bough]

ya im trynna lower mine to like 40cm rn

somewhere around that

[young pine]

43 cm is the sweet spot I feel

It's like the 4:3 linear of mnk

[golden fog]

I think anything above 40 cm but only if you've developed good mouse control on higher senses. Else you're just crutching the sens imo

[dull falcon]

30 cm and 43

[dull falcon]

43cm is sens crutching fr fr

[surreal bough]

@young pine I mainly use 43cm but certain movements on the sens are hard because my pad gets slow during the summer. Raising my sens a bit seems to help negate it a bit

No 43cm crutch for me rip

Now i feel like i cant even move my view

[mellow kestrel]

mixtape lobbies are so cancer now tf did they do

sbmm is off the rails

[wary star]

Bro

Who tf is miss violet and why is he in all my lobbies

Mmr go brr

[delicate crag]

mixtapes are too easy for me
idk why sbmm puts me in lobbies with people that play with turned off monitor

and the opposite in br

[wary star]

I think I had 20 kills in a TDM and I still lost

[wintry cypress]

He?

[wary star]

Or she idk

[wintry cypress]

Its either too easy or too hard no in between

[wintry cypress]

Lmao

[wary star]

For some reason I thought miss meant missing

LMFAO

[wintry cypress]

[wary star]

Also it's miss volt

Not violet fucking autocorrect

[delicate crag]

ive never had a hard lobby, i lost like 1 games out of 20+
but i'm not even an apexoid, i play very rarely, sbmm still puts me in worst lobbies possible for some reason

but in br there is 20 fucking people super giga gliding 360 neo tapstrafing in 10 seconds

[wary star]

Idk everyone that I know who plays mixtape says they go against controller stacks

And I do too

Ikun clan, uwu clan, OSU clan

They are all stacking that mixtape so they can make it to lan

[wooden berry]

hello guys, going into apex full motivateds, cmong from good lvl of valo and cs

what is a good sens recommended?

im at 800 1.3 now

[wary star]

Good sense

Sens

[wooden berry]

cool, no higher need?

[wary star]

Idk just play 1.3 if you need to go higher go higher

[wooden berry]

coool

[wary star]

1.2 to 1.8 looks like a good window to me

[true ravine]

what about dx12 version of the game, is it good to use?

[mellow kestrel]

same, and it wasnt like this last time i played

which was before season dropped ig

or well i did meet controller stacks but they were usually really bad so it didnt matter

one of these

[wary star]

I cycle on and off

Of tren

[true ravine]

it was in beta test, i think u can still use it

[wary star]

Just kidding

[true ravine]

idk if theres any fps gain

[wintry cypress]

same

(the tren is my test spiking after legday)

[wintry cypress]

there technically should be since theres more in depth coding for optimisation etc, and i believe it should have better cpu optimisation, dont quote me on that though

although dx11 is way more robust and already has most of the optimisation built in so it usually runs better out of the box

and i doubt the devs put much work into optimising dx12

[wary star]

Apparently

[wintry cypress]

so id just keep using dx11

[wary star]

There were more stutters and worse 1%s

Back when It came out

Idk if it's more polished now

[wintry cypress]

of course you can try dx12 but i dont really see a reason to switch

[wary star]

I should play on dx12 for a bit

[wintry cypress]

yeah exactly

[wary star]

Dx12 has support for DLSS

Which is what they want

[wintry cypress]

i get the same shit in flight sim, dx11 smooth as butter, dx12 stuttery mess

[wary star]

For 120fps console I guess

[wintry cypress]

yeah dlss looks like shit on dx11

and dx12 also has raytracing support

[wary star]

Coz let's be real console won't be running 120fps on last gen without upscaling

[wintry cypress]

no 💀

i just hope theyll polish dx12 like they do with dx11 cause that would be sex

[true ravine]

ill give it a try and see what happens

[delicate crag]

Is practicing guns on r5 even practical? Aren't recoils and stuff are different on live servers?

[raven hull]

as long as you have the current dpot installed they are the same

they update it with the new values

[delicate crag]

thanks, will try it out then

[half salmon]

imo its pointless

if u wanna practice recoil just hit up the range

[dull falcon]

Why are console players aim assist deniers

Stg they have the largest egoes

[half salmon]

they have 60% aimbot bro they need to crutch it as hard as they can

pretty large ego for someone whos entire skillset relies on the number 60

60fps 60% aimbot lookin ass

just show them fps above 60 and they will freak out and cry

[dull falcon]

Trolling this man so hard rn

[delicate crag]

i like r5 duels

but if i get used to s3 r99 i will get fucked by recoil of live r99

[half salmon]

no

unless ur keen on perfecting r99 recoil it legit doesnt matter

[torn oyster]

It's really dependant on hardware.. some people it works great others it's terrible.
You're forced to use 16:9
1920x1080. Otherwise hud breaks.

roller aimed for me

[half salmon]

bro u got ur roller up in ur mic 😭

[vague nexus]

mic in the roller

[quaint karma]

no noise suppression

[worn bloom]

Just because youre playing roller doesnt mean you gotta copy their mic setups

[dull falcon]

Strafe aiming and just not aiming at all

Roller so cool

[worn bloom]

I was told to do smooth thin strafes to iron out trying to predict the target path rather than reacting to it. Pretty nice

[dull falcon]

I think my pb on that is 2400

[worn bloom]

Also, what do y'all think about my theme?

[dull falcon]

Its good

Doesnt hurt my eyes

[quaint karma]

idk only my clips pick this up

discord doesnt

[worn bloom]

I try to predict too much. And thats the feedback I got on the Quake clips

[wintry cypress]

probably cause discord noise filter

[wintry cypress]

i used to rock that exact theme lol

or well

something similar

lol

[half salmon]

ok what about the worst kovaaks themes

[dull falcon]

Mfs have like a fan in the back family members in the background

[half salmon]

their ps4 sounding like a jet engine

holding on for dear life just to run apex at 30fps

i think my old school laptop can run better frames than console

[worn bloom]

Dawg I was playing ranked and someone told me my mic sounded awful and I went to a streamer I was playing with VODs and it sounded like I was a console player with the basic ass headset they give you

Next headset I get will be wireless because these wires mess up

[half salmon]

dude im glad asians get their shit together

i rarely see console fuckers in singapore/hk

[little verge]

Open mic, max gain, breathing directly into the mic without ever talking, family screaming in the background with a vacuum cleaner, occasional bong rip. The true console mic experience.

[half salmon]

they made the good choice

[worn bloom]

"occasional bong rip'

[little verge]

Oh, forgot the blaring rap music.

[worn bloom]

Takes me back, me and my roomates had our setups in the living room and we were all heavy hookah smokers and we would chief it up 💀

Good times

[little verge]

More like hasheeeeesh

[wintry cypress]

or some dude on open mic watching tiktok

[worn bloom]

Thats the worst

[wintry cypress]

happens so often lol

yesterday we had a dude comming but his fan was right inside his mic

so we just heard wind

[worn bloom]

Thats just how I'm feeling

[little verge]

Oh god, that fucking robot voice in the background

The Tiktoks are so bad

[wintry cypress]

i hate that shit so much

deleted tiktok like a week ago

barely use it anyway

[little verge]

I still think insta is worse, I hate the way people format videos on there.

But it's up there.

Then again, insta never had NPC streams so maybe Tiktok is worse.

[flint grotto]

yellow targets are the best targets

facts

these are probably my favorites

[worn bloom]

Dude you know I used to use that a couple months ago but I switched before I upgrade my GPU/monitor because it felt way more blurry. Think I will try that again now I'm on high frames

[flint grotto]

i either like yellow, purple, gray, or black targets

i really dont like red or blue

or green

[wintry cypress]

i only really use red for target switching

black for static

and then yellow for everything else

[little verge]

Yellow/green for targets, black static. Though I did like blue glow for awhile.

[wary star]

i am getting called the mike tyson of r5 that's actually funny

[twilit musk]

https://youtu.be/0YcCvnICwQg

[little verge]

Who the fuck you been biting????

Also, is it me or is Apex way more prone to CTD lately? I get no error just straight drops at random.

[young pine]

not familiar with CTD but i assume you're talkin about crashes

and there's alot of crashing going on. at least once per session

[young pine]

valid comparison

[little verge]

Yeah, CTD is just short for crash to desktop.

And if I load back in the match becomes SUPER laggy and my FPS is fucked for awhile.

[wary star]

i haven't ctd'd a lot

but i did experience the fucked fps for 30 seconds if i crashed

and loaded back in

[worn bloom]

I notice the FPS bugging out when I launch the game. Have to go to firing range for a minute to fix itself. Dont know what the issue is but never happened before

[gleaming willow]

anyone wanna 1v1

[twin dirge]

had that for seasons

still have it

[young pine]

alt tabbing also can fuck up the fps so i normally have to alt tab twice just to fix it again

[spring zenith]

What does gold knockdown shield do

They took away the self res

[knotty pewter]

revives with 50 armor and like 70% hp

[spring zenith]

oh so gold bag

but on the player getting resd

kinda lame but fair enough

[knotty pewter]

now goldbag allows you to carry 1 extra big med

So now gold knock is balanced for comp

Anyone else having connection issues

Says 10 ping in the main menu but 140+ ping in game

[spring zenith]

Also anyone here good with movement

I have a question or two about wallbouncing, sometimes my character just won't grab the wall

I just kinda slide off it

[wet stratus]

1v1s?

[torn oyster]

do you have a video of what youre doing.

youre prob not looking at the wall far enough.

[spring zenith]

Unfortunately not BUT I can hop in game right now if you can wait just a min

Sometimes I get the wall climbing sfx and sometimes I don't, in both cases sometimes the bounce just no bounce

idk if the sfx makes a difference

[unborn token]

No idea

[torn oyster]

well the wall bounce comes from canceling the wall climb animation while having momentum

with a jump

if u arent slide jumping into the wall at a far enough angle / not looking at the wall

youll just slide on it

[spring zenith]

Here we go

Most of the time it works like normal

[torn oyster]

oh so youre trying off a wall that has a mantle instead of a climb

[spring zenith]

I mean I guess? it happens on a larger wall too

[torn oyster]

you can try fatigue jumping to hit those more consistant

when moving you can try jumping earlier to meet the middle of the wall sooner

[spring zenith]

I know what that is but I'm not sure how to get it to work

[neat igloo]

default keybinds or we gotta change?

[spring zenith]

so like I jump first then slide into a wall like normal?

[torn oyster]

every jump after the initital jump is concidered a fatigue jump

[neat igloo]

wanna work on movement as well

[torn oyster]

but the reason what youre doing doesnt work is because an initital walljump will move you downwards

so any jump after that against the wall/box whatever, will be a fatigue jump (if consistantly jumping after before stopping)

fatigue jumps send you upward.

which is why you see movement players jump up against a wall without the jump animation close to a wall

using A/D to redirect

you can also try jumping with scrollwheel after jumping with spacebar to help with the 'double jump'

to get fatigue faster

but that second jump wont happen until the first one does

[spring zenith]

I'm not really following

What does the sequence of inputs look like to perform a fatigue walljump

where am I 'double jumping' exactly

Oh nvm Xzylas explains it pretty well

[torn oyster]

solid movement guides from em.

also it looks in the vod like youre holding keys after youre jumping

are you letting go after the first initial jump

[spring zenith]

not really

I hold either a or d to direct movement but I probably shouldn't be holding that before the jump

[torn oyster]

so youre holding w/shift/ctrl

after the jump

[spring zenith]

yeah W and/or ctrl

[torn oyster]

yeah let go of those after your initial jump

if you arent directly looking at the wall youll end up mantling whatever you grab

w will move you forward to mantle the small boxes/walls

which is what that small jump is that shoots you down

[spring zenith]

Sounds good, thanks

[torn oyster]

got a small vod showing what it will look like

one sec

[unborn token]

https://medal.tv/games/apex-legends/clips/1rbeqm4sREnUgc/d1337HluP7K5?invite=cr-MSxROGwsMzg3NjkzMSw

i tried to do these slow enough that you can tell whats happening

when you jump, let go of w/shift/ctrl
look at the box and then jump, using A/D as redirect keys in the direction youre going

[spring zenith]

ooh the tapstrafe over ledges is next on my learning list

[torn oyster]

thats just a redirect.

[unborn token]

Nothing I'm just not a movement player and I find all this shit cringe

[torn oyster]

very very easy to learn

[unborn token]

Incredibly cringe when you miss literally everything or keep dying because your enemies aren't gold in r5

[wooden berry]

Playing apex and valo, and i have very different sens, in valo: 800 dpi 0.2 and in apex 1.3. Should i try to make the difference smaller between both sens?

sorry if is not the right chat

[young pine]

no.

[torn oyster]

no

[unborn token]

One is a tac shooter

One isnt

[torn oyster]

you cant compare the two

[spring zenith]

My guy if you hate movement I'm afraid you're playing the wrong game

[torn oyster]

one has control, one has precise

[wooden berry]

true

[unborn token]

And realistically valorant requires a solid

[wooden berry]

thats what i think

[unborn token]

5% of aim

At best

[wooden berry]

valo is prue crosshair placement

btw, do u think 1.3 800 in apex is a good sens in general?

overall

[unborn token]

I'm not

I enjoy movement

[torn oyster]

i mean its subjective

to what you want to play at

i play 1600 .8

[spring zenith]

You enjoy movement but don't like it when people use the movement

[torn oyster]

it aint worth arguing over

leave it as is. pls and ty

[wooden berry]

btw do u knwo any good apex player with looow sens? just curious!

[torn oyster]

theres several. but most good apex players are on roller now

[half salmon]

because they fucking suck at using it

[wooden berry]

can u name some

[spring zenith]

Real, main reason I left in the first place

Getting 1 clipped ain't much fun

[half salmon]

theyre all hurting their aim and making themselves so predictable

[spring zenith]

Game seems more chill now tho

[torn oyster]

few of them are in voltaic. Hollow_o, HisWattson, even torje

outside of voltaic, idk whos still on mnk or switched to roler

[half salmon]

zap switched to roller and made pro league

[torn oyster]

Rogue who is on liquid now used to play on low sens.

well

lowish

400 dpi 2.5

ik 800 2.0 used to be an average pick for most.

but thats pretty quick

[wooden berry]

thats high sens lol

[half salmon]

rogue has one of the best r301 in the game

[wooden berry]

i was trying 1 800 dpi lol

maybe too low

[half salmon]

sad that gun is nerfed to the ground

even spitfire is better now

[torn oyster]

spitfire is spray and pray

which is why i dont use it

[half salmon]

no now u actually can hit shit with hipfire

No, you can use your movement but then i expect you to oneclip me otherwise you are using it to much

[half salmon]

better than r301

best gun offdrop

[torn oyster]

ill die on this hill R301 has been the best weapon in apex with the minimal amount of balancing done to it

but being able to hit shit like this is wild

[half salmon]

can easily just outmag r9s in a 1v1

[torn oyster]

old old ass clip that i keep beating with a stick

but i dont clip much of anything anymore

[spring zenith]

The recoil do be non-existent compared to other ars

But flatline is my baby

[edgy crane]

Nuh uh, nemi exists

[spring zenith]

I don't like burst

[edgy crane]

You cant say r3 has less recoil then that shit

[spring zenith]

I haven't tried it so could be

[torn oyster]

then theres this..which was a good belly laugh of a third party

griefed an end fight

because of how dumb this gun is

[dull falcon]

anyone down to 1v1

[surreal bough]

@dull falcon ya let me plug in my roller rq

[calm shuttle]

[dull falcon]

nooo

[half salmon]

perfect soldier hands always look the best

too bad the skin itself looks bad

[torn oyster]

skin itself is great wym

i mean its always gotten 'hate' for whatever reason

but it was my main skin for like 9 seasons

[half salmon]

the recolor does it justice

og is like the uglier out of most of the wraith skins

[torn oyster]

recolor of it is mid

original is better

[naive kindle]

I use it just cause its rare lol

[half salmon]

cat on the roller
should i disown

[torn oyster]

3047 masters vs the 1.6M from last season

[half salmon]

i need to get masters before my exams in like 2 months

[torn oyster]

2 months 5 days 14hrs

[half salmon]

its just this season is punishing good players and rewarding dogshit players

i can get like 6-7kills a game and still get like 10 elim bonus

[lethal wraith]

you mean you don't enjoy playing in pred lobbies in gold rank?

[dull falcon]

skill issue tbh

ranked isnt free ppl complain

they make ranked free its an issue

[worn bloom]

Its good on mute

[dull falcon]

solo q ing on apex

[half salmon]

i had 2 chinese people singing the ABCs in ranked

[young pine]

its funny that pubs have the same exact matchmaking as ranked

mixtape is the only "casual" mode we still have

[gleaming willow]

anyone wanna 1v1

[naive kindle]

fr and its messed up cause it incentivizes not getting into fights till 10 squads, which usually means u have to fight controller range mostly

[native sluice]

i got 9 kills

top 2

silver

i got

+60

my duo

same rank

got

4 assists

+120

for elim bonus

[quaint karma]

someone remind me

how much AA does the no AA voltaic server have?

cuz it sure feels like .4 to me

i just got on and am absolutely beaming

ok ig i answered my own question

why does it feel stronger than in the normal one

no wonder no one plays there

[vague nexus]

They only aim assist that matters is the one in your heart

[half salmon]

.1 slowdown
.4 rotational

because i THINK there might be a hardcap on how low rotational aa can go

[quaint karma]

it feels way easier than .35 with full slowdown

[half salmon]

i think its because u have more control with less slowdown

shrug

u could try replicating the values on ur own by just spawning dummies and changing aa in the playlist.txt file

im too lazy to test if rotational aa actually cant go below .4 or smth

[lapis moat]

poor pablo

[dull falcon]

I stg there was a server with no roller aa at 1 point

Best r5 era was the little cage map ffa

@lapis moat how to i get gm complete?

[lapis moat]

grind

took me like 800 hours

I need astra on this

now

[lapis moat]

IS MNK BACK?

[lethal wraith]

now you just gotta do it every time in the future at least 100 times to prove consistency

[dull falcon]

What's did u do exactly

[lapis moat]

grind benches

i need to get better at rolling movement players

[dull falcon]

After the benchmarks anything else

[wintry cypress]

[dull falcon]

Ive been so focused on practicing tracking

bruh my workplace got a new coffee machine today
and now the coffee tastes like water

[wintry cypress]

what the fuck

that is actually cursed

[light rapids]

or i lost all my tastebuds idk

old machine had like a intensity regulator which i cranked up to the max
new one doesnt have that
maybe i was just used to super intense coffee

[dull falcon]

Bro tsm has been fragginf in scrims

[half salmon]

what the fuck is that res

i dont remember 1440x1080 being that stretched

[twin dirge]

I won a game with 17kp and and 2 participation and got 309 for the whole game while my teammate with 15kp 4 parti got 303 elim bonus

[worn bloom]

I seen something about a stretched res for 1440p I gotta remember to try later. 1920x1200 or something odd like that

[silver seal]

80 fov 💀

[sweet bay]

It really do be like that I got only placement points for 17kp but my friend who got 6kp in assists only got elim bonus and skill bonus (we are both plat btw)

[main merlin]

This probably the most frustrating season of apex but also the best one to improve at the same time

[quaint karma]

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[young pine]

Yeah 80 fov is crazy. I play 1440x1080 120fov

really?

[young pine]

idk if he will but he's fully considering it. his last tweet sounded really defeated

[frail kiln]

is there a good guide for getting stretched res, watched some YT video and it was scuffed

couldn't get rid of blackbars

[young pine]

theres def 1 out there. it was a couple years ago tho so i couldnt tell you which one

but you can essentially keep your 1920 res on windows but it switches to 1440 on apex

[half salmon]

who are like 99% of these players 😭😭😭

[little verge]

Most modern coffee machines utilize super fine grinds and lower ratios and lots of agitation to make up for the extraction, and while temp stable compared to old coffee machines typically don't quite get there. So yeah you just end up with overly extracted, yet hollow coffee.

Depending on the machine I usually recommend going for the espresso setting if it has one and just make a faux Americano with hot water added to taste. Only way to get a semi decent result.

[native sluice]

make custom rez in nvidia or if you have amd i think you have to use cru i'm not sure
go to C:\Users*your username*\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local
open videoconfig.txt
find

    "setting.defaultres"        "1440"
    "setting.defaultresheight"        "1080"

switch it to what you want for me it's 1440x1080 so 4:3
switch it save and go to document property and make it "read only"
now go to your steam and right click on apex, click property, go to launch options and add +mat_letterbox_aspect_goal 0 +mat_letterbox_aspect_threshold 0 +building_cubemaps "1" ||also this is for 4:3 if u want to go with other res u have to look it up||
now when you start apex and will be on a screen where it asks you to click to continue (look at screenshot) you hit alt+enter twice and you will be cool

also fuck season 18 ranked

[frail kiln]

You're a King ty

[dull falcon]

Who is nic and why he switching

[dull falcon]

Yall cant be happy ever

Apex players are like women and children

[worn bloom]

I just don’t like playing it back to back

[wintry cypress]

yeah exactly

its aight for 1 game

just poor execution

[mellow kestrel]

Dont like it at all tbh

10x more boring than tdm or control

[worn bloom]

They really need a community manager that understands what the people want and can communicate between channels (on MNK) [with movement] {emotional}

Someone put a gag order on them or something because all the current ones are MIA and tbh I don’t like any of them

Especially the one with the cartoon picture of themselves drinking coffee

[native sluice]

i was happy before

i felt like system punish me if i make a bad play and gives me rp if play good

like

getting top 2 with 9 kills and 4 assists gives me 200 points

[young pine]

the issue is rooted so much deeper than not having a dialogue with respawn. their goals and philosophy dont align with ours.

[worn bloom]

Not disagreeing with you, because what you're saying does seem to be the case, but something simple like "gun run usually ends up running twice in a row, ppl are complaining about that" would be cool

IDK I look at the Riot devs and they have like a million always keeping ppl in the loop on social media

[little verge]

That, and the ones that do communicate also have massive egos to the point they're completely deluded.

[wintry cypress]

Tdm is defo the best and control is just action packed

[little verge]

Control would have been better than TDM in terms of longevity, but way too many creatures in it.

[dull falcon]

Kp is still worth something this season no?

[stuck ridge]

barely

idk about higher ranks; i just started playing again, got 2nd in a bronze 2 lobby with 6kp and got like 215 points 😍

but in “placement” games you can get top 20, 2kp and get 800 points 😎

[charred plank]

that was my aimbot load out,,,

nice hip- ads balance btw

[worn bloom]

Fresh audio settings in case I mess things up

Already seeing MASSIVE PR GAINS with these new hitsounds

[worn bloom]

WTF is going on here

[wintry cypress]

factual

[little verge]

Gotta roleplay build-a-base mechanical engineer or you're not a real gamer

according to my calculations and my spreadsheet I designed I have plotted out the perfect fence placements on B site to maximize surface area

I approximate a 97.34% chance that someone will never touch me

[runic citrus]

when we disabling AA on r5 server?????

[mystic agate]

never because it's not realistic

[young pine]

I have a feeling content creators are gonna get the repeater nerfed. everyones acting like that thing hasn't been great forever

but now its "broken"

[lethal wraith]

honestly I wouldn't mind all the dps being scaled down

feels like apex has become a low ttk game

[young pine]

only because of controllers

[lethal wraith]

I mean, not even because of rollers

people just got better but they also released nemesis

buffed hemlok

buffed shotguns

it feels really bad because oftentimes you don't even get to react

because there's no audio half the time

[young pine]

the hemlok is fine imo. the shotgun thing is rough in apex because they're either gonna be complete dogshit or too strong

i think this is a very good weapon meta. minus the nemesis

IF anything, and thats a big if. increase shield per armor

[little verge]

That's by design. They always wanted the TTK to be lower, they just got too much pushback when they directly changed EHP values via the Evo armour reduction. Plus then when they reduced movement, loot rarity, and increased damage/weapon consistency, they'll "nerf" AA but it will no longer matter.

[young pine]

I think we learned via the r5 server that reducing AA doesnt help right?

[lethal wraith]

[young pine]

not sure what its set to

[lethal wraith]

apparently it only affects the slowdown

[young pine]

yeah they'll probably reduce to .2 and keep rotational.

[lethal wraith]

honestly I wouldn't be surprised if .1 is still busted because of 0ms reaction time

[young pine]

exactly

it needs to just be a slowdown

like it was pre fortnite in most games

[lethal wraith]

yeah that's not gonna happen in apex sadly

it's too late at this point p much

fortnite migrated to gyro iirc

[young pine]

we can pretend

they actually balanced AA so people starting using gyro i think

[half salmon]

switch already has gyro the code is there

apex just wont add it natively

steam configs being the only way to use gyro is not good

[young pine]

i'm lookin forward to xdefiant but i have my doubts about it staying alive with just base multiplayer

they actually dont have overly strong AA

[half salmon]

there was a cod mf crying abt how xdefiant aa is so weak he cant hit any shots

[lethal wraith]

xdefiant said they will make rank input-separated

[half salmon]

unfortunate 😂

[young pine]

thats my worry too, if the game is dying they could buff it to keep the casual shitters happy

[little verge]

Yeah, everything about XDefiant sounds great but I feel like casuals are at such a dumpster fire skill level now they won't play if they can't win multiplayer matches on autopilot.

Which means business wise it'll suffer.

[lethal wraith]

I have been playing gundam evolution lately and it's probably the most fun I have had in an fps game

too bad it's shutting down on nov 29th

[little verge]

Yeah, Gundam was a ton of fun. It just suffered on a technical level.

[worn bloom]

Xdefiant aim assist wasnt THAT weak tho lol. Every lobby the top frags were... roler players.

I was planning to play that game on roller tbh. For whatever reason the last beta they had MNK did not feel great on it either and I was doing better on roller

[little verge]

XDefiant had decent AA, but people are used to Apex/CoD tier of getting carried.

[young pine]

yeah i played roller ox dfefiant and it was finew

fine*

[young pine]

last beta the fucked up mnk somehow that wasnt in the previous ones. i believe it had the same issue as bf2042. im sure the fixed it tho cause they seem like they actually care

bullets werent coming from the gun but from the center of the screen or some shit

[worn bloom]

It felt really bad the 2nd time around. I think ppl will realize roller is on top for Xdefiant even if they fix it

https://clips.twitch.tv/OddDarkRadishWutFace-p1MHY5aPdNkqS7eV

[young pine]

even if controller is the better input it wont feel opressive. and input based match making can help with that

[lethal wraith]

honestly I never really get roller clips, because I have no clue how much of it is human skill and how much it is software

like miss one bullet and there's no kill on mnk

[worn bloom]

Agreed but this one was satisfying to watch lol

Halo started with input based ranked and than just flat out gave aim assist to MNK

[young pine]

its all AA. specially the vertical shots through the air

[worn bloom]

But I do think the dev team seems great for Xdefiant

You could tell (maybe) COD seen this and they're kinda going all out on the next COD

I dont usually get hyped for CODs but MW3 looks like it'll be good

[young pine]

they're passionate and you can feel the passion through the gameplay. another reason i wanna see the game succeed. everyone else has lost passion its all about profits

[worn bloom]

I just want to play Terminal

[young pine]

next cod will be a dud. every year it looks amazing and everyone gets hype, just for it to release and be terrible 2 months in

[worn bloom]

That's how it goes man. MNK players, even above average ones could potato and the fight lasts embarassingly long lmao

[young pine]

if its actually a good cod i'll gladly eat my words

[worn bloom]

Bruh dont want to see me miss damn near 2 wingman clips and 15 PK shots

[half salmon]

cod rereleasing a new modern warfare every 2 months with 0 gameplay change thinking it will save the game

tbf prox chat in cod looks so fun

imagine apex had prox chat

i would be more motivated to do movement to shit on people more

[young pine]

its barely a new game tbh. mw2.5

[worn bloom]

I get tilted easily (nowadays) and that shit actually effects my gameplay so I would have that on mute

[young pine]

mw3 but its all mw2 maps. i wanna know who's making the decisions over there

[worn bloom]

Ppl been asking for a MW2 'remake' for years. I thought last years COD was supposed to be that but they messed up

BUT I am not buyng it until I know for sure they didn't pull some BS. Ppl talking about preordering a digital release 💀

[young pine]

for the first time ever, they're gonna mess up zombies. teyarch had such a good thing going and you can tell they were influenced to make large scale zombies which literally nobody wants

[young pine]

for me its not even about cod being dogshit but its probably gonna be an unoptimized pile of dogshit. cant get decent fps without a 4070

[worn bloom]

Is there a glitch for Kovaaks that makes it not shut down properly?

I played Cold War, Warzone and MW2019 on a 1060 man I know

[young pine]

same so you know the struggles

i know it shouldnt run like a dream on a 1060 but it can def be better. i get 144 on apex, ow, cs, val

but not cod

on cold war zombies i was rockin a steady 60 fps

[worn bloom]

These new GPUs looks so much more powerful and better aesthetically than the old ones. I have a 3080 now and I just love looking at that shit and I went back to the old cods and get like 200+ FPS at 1440p now

[worn bloom]

Better Apex performance than I got lol. But OW was so well optimized I used to get like 240 fps on my system

[young pine]

I want a new card. but i figured might as well save for a whole new rig rather than parking a lambo in a trailer park

[young pine]

1440x1080 with everything low/off. if i go native i get 100-120

[worn bloom]

Honestly, doing it part by part aint a bad idea if youre PSU/Case size support it. If you have only a 1080p 144hz monitor a 3060ti/3070 or a 6700xt will demolish any game

And than in the future you could upgrade CPU/Mobo/etc.

[young pine]

honestly i dont even know what case i have anymore

built this pc in like 2016

no what am i talkin about. it was mid 2017

[half salmon]

im still using a gtx 1080ti

same performance as an rtx 3060ti for the most part

without dlss and other stiff

but for a 130$ card i cant really complain

[worn bloom]

https://streamable.com/8t76av Like just looking at Bang ult or Fragment drops me below 60 fps lol

[half salmon]

this card is really slept on nowadays for budget builds its crazy

[worn bloom]

Also I was really proud of that Bang ult

[half salmon]

ew running with gun out

cringe!

[worn bloom]

But ay looking at my clips before the upgrade, I WAS STRUGGLING

[young pine]

standing by cat Qs is bad too. specially if theres an ult

[worn bloom]

Dude I had the same exact thought. I played roller for like 5 days the week before I think

[half salmon]

my worst struggle was playing on a laptop that constantly peaked 75C

on 720p

atleast it was 60fps!!

[jovial hawk]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdk6649qg_Y epic mnk gamer

[worn bloom]

Legendary GPU. If I could go back to December 2018 when I first starting building my PC I get that and I'm good on 1080p for a decade

[half salmon]

its still pushing every game i put at it pretty well

tbf i dont play that much heavy games

[worn bloom]

But TBH I was the first person from my friend group on PC and I was worried I wouldnt like it but like 2 days in and I LOVED it

[young pine]

hows warzone on 1080?

[half salmon]

the most i played recently was apex terraria and escape the backrooms

[worn bloom]

True AF. Facebook marketplace probably has a few of these around the $150 mark

[half salmon]

its like 80-100$ cheaper than my next best option which is an rtx 3060ti

but i wanna upgrade to a 3070ti soon

i saw some great deals on it

sub 300$ card

[young pine]

put me on 👀

[worn bloom]

40 FPS Pain I clutched a 1v3 in this somehow

[half salmon]

ill ship it to you for 2 heirlooms

[young pine]

event heirlooms or packs?

[half salmon]

[half salmon]

aint nobody buying a gtx 1080ti to run at ultra

even then its still decent at ultra

11gigs of vram

[worn bloom]

Benchmark purposes but https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gpu-hierarchy,4388.html has medium 1080p, 1440p, and 4k

[half salmon]

compared to the usual 8 most these cards have

[young pine]

i don't think i'd ever run at ultra even with a 4090

[half salmon]

comp settings gtx 1080ti can still run apex at over 165 personally

and im using a slightly higher res stretch res

[young pine]

i believe it. my 1060 somehow gets 144

[worn bloom]

I run max textures on certain games. IT doesnt seem to effect FPS and I doubt theres any display latency but I guess 1% lows matters

[half salmon]

true test is can it run terraria

[young pine]

texture streaming budget barely effects apex. but it still does

[dull falcon]

cool story i have a 7900xt

[half salmon]

only by like 2-3fps

[worn bloom]

But yeah I shouldve did stretched rez when I had the 1060. I used to get better FPS on Apex szn 5

[half salmon]

im running insane tsb

[worn bloom]

165hz monitor

[young pine]

stretch res 110fov is honestly pretty nice

[dull falcon]

2k

[young pine]

120*

[half salmon]

i play 104 nowadays

110 is too much

[young pine]

i only do 120 on stretch. 110 on native

[dull falcon]

at some point i want to get one of those really nice monitors with like 300hz

[half salmon]

theres 500hz

[worn bloom]

Yeah 104 seems nice, thats what I run.

[young pine]

normally 300hz isnt justifiable but for aim trainers it is. so thats cool

[half salmon]

minecraft

[dull falcon]

idk if its zowie or something else

[half salmon]

minecraft pvpers will refuse to cap their fps

let their minecraft run at 3000fps

[young pine]

i wanna see how much it would effect my scores goin from 144 to 300

[worn bloom]

I cap Kovaaks at 480 fps. Diminishing returns + I heard capping FPS is better for increasing 1% lows

[dull falcon]

another gm but fuck

[young pine]

butt fuck?

so close to my pb

[surreal bough]

man I wish ranked in Apex had a mode that played like OW2. I like the mechanics of Apex so much, but the game mods in OW2 are a lot more fun than BR imo

[young pine]

I think TDM has potential to have a ranked mode. but it would still have the underlying issues because it wouldn't be solo queue only. thats what ranked truly needs in apex imo

[native mango]

Tru tru I gotta remember Rev has movement now too

[young pine]

yesterday I had a rev path team jump on my building, come in and start shitting on me. never heard a single thing. asumming rev probably pounced as well

[naive kindle]

why does us servers feel so much less sweaty than japan

[young pine]

japan has more movement players

they don't shoot as straight tho. assuming because less rollers

[naive kindle]

yea thats what I noticed, generally more rollers

I dont really consider it skill so I dont put it in the sweat category

[spice swift]

bro’s better than me with no aa than me keyboard

[raven hull]

I've never heard a roller in clips before, mans got the crispy roller

[raven hull]

I keep seeing clips of revs using abilities and there being 0 audio for any of them

the audio is getting worse and worse i swear

[edgy crane]

Nosh is just the goat

[delicate crag]

do you need to overshoot with wingman in 15m+ range? i swear to fucking god i'm locking to target and it misses

am i tripping or not

[spice swift]

clearly

[young pine]

you have to lead a lil yeah

[fickle scroll]

Hello people
I have a question for Mouse and Keyboard players : How do you use your arm, forearm and wrist while wrist aiming to track a moving target at medium to long range ? Do you have to lock evrything exept your wrist ? Does your forearm slide lightly ?

[edgy crane]

i just aim, most wrist

idk its just things i dont think about, just muscle memory

[wet skiff]

why would you wrist track specifically?

don't think about it that much and just aim how it feels natural. You shouldn't be exclusively using wring, or arm, or fingers, you'll want to use a mix of what feels best for you, don't try and force it like that

[edgy crane]

yeah, just said what i use the most

[fickle scroll]

I've been told that wrist can make more precise movement, which is required aim at long distances.
I see, the movements are connected then

[fickle scroll]

Most wrist ?

[half salmon]

arm close range

wrist long range

[fickle scroll]

That's my problem: wrist long range

[half salmon]

dont overthink it

its really not that big of a deal

dude 10 kills for this???

whats the point of me even fighting

like is my mmr too high for these mfs?

[fickle scroll]

I'll try ^^

[half salmon]

usually for precise movements i wrist aim, for close range where alot of shit happening and alot of movement use arm/wrist

but thats just me personally

do whatever is comfortable to you

[fickle scroll]

Noted

[little verge]

It's just a little bit of everything. I use my arm, and have my wrist and fingers to compensate if I need more control. I don't try and isolate any single part of my arm.

[warped lake]

Old heads 😂

Isolation can be good during practice if you're not as familiar with using your wrist or arm, but during gameplay I don't think using strictly wrist or arm is the play unless it's necessitated by extreme high or low sens.

[fickle scroll]

I see,
I think i can train my wrist then, to get used to little movements

[edgy crane]

Bro i get 20p for 12k

[grim torrent]

why do i get put in diamond/masters lobbies when im literally bronze?

[half salmon]

mfw i get good teammates solo q

they invite me and i cant play with them

because theyre silver

😭

[warped lake]

Apex is so bad

I’m uninstalling

[grim torrent]

your rank doesnt say how good you are just how much you play

[light rapids]

havent played in 2 weeks and i never felt better

[young pine]

if you're actually good at the game you'll be hard stuck silver in pred lobbies 😂

[lethal wraith]

they changed ranked, now you play in lobbies of your skill level instead of having to climb to it

rank is visual only

[little verge]

Yeah, even placement matches it's just masters and preds everywhere.

It's nice knowing you don't have to hit diamond anymore before you start seeing the cheaters, you just get them right out of the gate.

[grim torrent]

that makes sense i mean ranked smurfing was like the last place to have fun sometimes thats not allowed in apex

[little verge]

True, casuals are an extinct species protected by the government of Respawn.

[young pine]

I still have fun on apex. its as im closing app to get off

[lethal wraith]

vaaks running like molasses for anyone else?

[dull falcon]

@half salmon

[young pine]

surprisingly not today

[lethal wraith]

think it was my net

[wintry cypress]

Kovaaks has honestly never ran bad for me

[young pine]

seems like every other week it has fps issues for me

[dull falcon]

Ong i need ppl to play ranked with

[grim torrent]

i need a new game

[frail kiln]

Apex is really fun

but holy shit ranking up is hard no?

[half salmon]

depends

game punishes you for being a good playee

[frail kiln]

I'm too new, wdym good player?

aim or like actually playing rotations/zone?

[grim torrent]

good player = anyone with more than 2 braincells

[frail kiln]

because to me playing zone seems way more important based on scoring

but ending a game with 6kp and dying early and getting +0 has been my life since I started this season lol

[edgy crane]

yeah i mean smurfing isnt a thing anymore 🙂

but still anyoing, idk why they have two things that rank us. the hidden mmr and our rank

and they dont match

[raven hull]

Are the servers still shit for you guys as well?

i have 14 ping but it feels like 200

[torn oyster]

That's just apex

[grim torrent]

yes getting shot through doors simulator

[raven hull]

[young pine]

getting shot behind cover is becoming normal. i'm not even surprised by it anymore

[young pine]

being a good player just means mechanics

you can be bad mechanically and be told you're playing wrong for being agressive. or you can be decent mechanically, play zone and be told you're playing wrong

just play however you want tbh as long as it works for you

[frail kiln]

was just curious is all

I got a ways to go

but appreciate the answer

in cs we call that getting interp'd

usually comes down to the person shooting you having high ping

[raven hull]

apex feels so clunky when you havent played in a few weeks

i also just smacked my mouse into my keyboard getting me killed

something i dont think ive done in forever lmao

[dull falcon]

Being a good player doesn't mean u get kills only
