if they dont intend to push this franchise and fix the most ovious things, they just should bury it right now and stop wasting our time...

yea but that just proves that these ranks dont mean shit

[barren citrus]

yep, thats how it is.

[astral dagger]

what the fuck is this spot lmao

[astral dagger]

oh yeah im copper 2 playing with plats and diamonds

current season like leave me alone already

such a stupid system

[barren citrus]

Just forget bout the ranks you see, they mean not much.

[next wagon]

at least in theory, eventually your RP should tend to match your MMR

early season ranks mean just as much they did in previous seasons, to be fair

the system is designed to incentivize you to play ranked, which isn't necessarily bad for the health of the game

personally, I'm playing with the same people I was playing last season (dia/champ) even though I'm still in gold so I'm fine

[pseudo brook]

I started the season only playing pros, it's the same types of players you always played and rank is just a visual

[astral dagger]

Yeah just useless

[pseudo brook]

it's alright I feel like something will get changed so we have some sort of skill indication

because right now anyone can be champ

[astral dagger]

Would be a great plan to farm a new acc to champ for some bronze or so

Lmao

So they only been champ and can boast to their friends 💀💀

[pseudo brook]

see

the new system

changes SBMM based on W/L

[astral dagger]

Makes u grind alot yeah

[pseudo brook]

on fresh accounts it changes instantly

[astral dagger]

I have a 3wl rn

[pseudo brook]

on an older acc with a rank history it takes a million years

[astral dagger]

But like there’s no fun in me grinding the game rn

[pseudo brook]

I just want a red charm

I think the season charms look sick

[astral dagger]

I might grind it aswell

Actually

Ngl

[pseudo brook]

so im queuing with worse players to get easier games

[astral dagger]

Might be the play lmao

[pseudo brook]

i cant get games without queuing with worse players

[astral dagger]

Might get my silver friend to play with

[pseudo brook]

if I solo q or queue with people that were champ/diamond its still 10 min queues

thats at the least at peak hours

[astral dagger]

🌚

[pseudo brook]

but if i queue with plats or lower I get games in 1-3 mins

[astral dagger]

it shouldnt bec you gain way more than you lose and it doesnt even matter bec champs match against coopers which basically makes it sbmm with a reward system(rank) and not ranked

[next wagon]

The RP gained lowers as your RP gets close to your MMR, the opposite happens with RP loss as well

Once both RP and MMR are close enough, you should win and lose the same amount per match

However, in order to incentivize grinding it does only get to +40 and -30. So yeah, technically if you had a 50% w/l ratio you will still rank up

If you are above 50% your MMR should slowly increase, meaning you'll get more RP per win and lose less per loss. And if you're below 50% the inverse will happen

The system would be perfectly fine if it didn't allow you to rank up with 50% w/l, but that's what ranked players want

[raw wind]

im crying rn

i am actually ranking up

[astral dagger]

but that doesnt work bec my m8s gain 80 and lose like 10 at champ elo so its not even a challenge anymore

[next wagon]

if your MMR is 7000 you're not going to stop gaining 80 RP once you hit 4500

[astral dagger]

the mmr wasnt 7k i like 5.2 and even then no one has a start mmr of 7k in siege last season max was 3750 or something

and it takes the whole purpose of rank away bec rank doensnt have anyrhing to do with matchmaking so its basically just a battlepass

[next wagon]

no one knows how MMR was calculated based off of previous seasons, I'm still far from my previous seasons' maxs so I can't really estimate but I wouldn't be surprised if it was some kind of average of last 2-3 seasons maxs

so you don't get pushed back as much as you did in previous seasons

[astral dagger]

starting mmr was known?

and the ways to calculate it aswell and back then rank was solely based on rank/mmr now its 2 totally different things

[next wagon]

yeah, it was the MMR you finished averaged with 2500

so say (4500 + 2500)/2

[astral dagger]

not exactly

it capped at 5000 so the max was 3750 which you could get

[next wagon]

that was exact

[next wagon]

yes, I was about to add

[astral dagger]

i just meant theres another variable

[astral dagger]

ok so you agree 3750 is max you just said a few minutes ago theres no way to calculate it

[next wagon]

no, I said that Solar Raid's starting MMR isn't known

since it doesn't seem to follow the same rules

[flint fractal]

I dont think it was capped before btw

at least not at 5000

My teammate who was 5600 who played all 10 placements with me placed higher than me who was 5065 at the end of season

This season no clue tho

weird system

ranked doesnt mean much now imo

Anyone have any good routines for siege btw

Just using the kovaak siege routine atm but open to suggestions

[north bay]

yeah, the Trueskill system they use in the background is basically an enhanced Elo system with a confidence score

[north bay]

this means with 50% w/ you need ~10 wins for each rank

so around 20 matches for each rank

8 * 5 * 20

~800 matches to go from copper V to top even at 50% w/l

unless I did my math wrong somewhere

[next wagon]

shouldn't it be 900 matches? since with a 50% w/l you'd be getting an average of 10RP (40-30) per 2 games

and champ is 4500

even then, since you gain 80RP and lose 9RP for a really long time it'll take a lot less games in the end

[north bay]

is champ 4500 MMR or RP

i thought it was RP, and only 100 RP per rank

[north bay]

yeah that's only if you started at that MMR immediately

[next wagon]

should be RP but I could be wrong

since MMR has no impact on rank

[north bay]

champ was 4500 mmr before, right? i think it's now just the 100 RP per rank thing

[next wagon]

it used to be 5000 MMR

[north bay]

ok it says it in rank rewards

8 ranks total

each with 5 divisions

for every 100 rp you get to new division

until champ

so that doesn't even make it 800 games

since you don't go through champ V to champ I

also random thing but what sens range do y'all recommend for this game

coming back to it I set mine at like 60 cm but it kinda sucked

[next wagon]

pick a hipfire sens that's comfortable and then I'd start on 50cm 1x

I think I'm on 66cm 1x

[north bay]

hmm ok

I'm on like 39 cm/360° rn

how should I figure out that 1x?

[next wagon]

the only other thing I'd keep in mind is that I did lower the default multipliers for higher zoom sights a bit, since the default just felt a bit too high

[next wagon]

you mean 50cm?

[north bay]

yeah

[next wagon]

https://jscalc.io/calc/owqD7YSQyTD3Rli1

you can try that calc

it's pretty handy

[north bay]

where is the cm/360?

oh i see

[next wagon]

also, you'd have to scale the other sights accordingly if you change the 1x value

it's a pretty annoying game

as far as sensitivities go

[north bay]

ok

weird

it says the xfactoraiming thing is default 0.02 but if i put that in it makes the values wrong

ohhh wait no

huh

as just a starting place, what kind of ADS values do you use?

[next wagon]

you can ignore the xfactor multiplier, it was useful before you were able to change optic sensitivities individually but now it's just pointless anyway

[next wagon]

wait, in order to get the numbers on the image didn't you input some value for each optic?

[north bay]

yes, i just put in what i currently have

[next wagon]

ah I see

those numbers look reasonable tbh

I think I run 5 hip and 35 1x?

[north bay]

the current ones i have tho are just like the default of 50 for everything

[next wagon]

wait, does it default to 50 on every sight?

[north bay]

yeah

i think so

[next wagon]

I'm pretty sure it shouldn't default to 50 on every sight

it should increase as the magnification gets higher

[north bay]

oh

i just clicked the default button and it went to 50 on every sight

[next wagon]

oh wait, that's because you don't have advanced ADS toggled I think

[north bay]

if i toggle it to advanced

it is still 50

it was something else in advanced before i clicked default

[next wagon]

uhh, that's not how I remember it used to work but in any case I can show you the values I use just for reference

[north bay]

ty

[north bay]

i figured this was my random attempts at making it feel nice

that prolly was the old defaults

rip

[next wagon]

ADSGamepadSensitivityGlobal=50
ADSGamepadSensitivity1x=35
ADSGamepadSensitivity1xHalf=59
ADSGamepadSensitivity2x=60
ADSGamepadSensitivity2xHalf=61
ADSGamepadSensitivity3x=62
ADSGamepadSensitivity4x=62
ADSGamepadSensitivity5x=63
ADSGamepadSensitivity12x=97

so this is what the gamesettings file says

and those are fairly close to defaults IIRC

weird

[north bay]

gamepad?

[next wagon]

NEVER MIND

those are the defaults

[north bay]

OH SHIT

[next wagon]

since those are the controller values

[north bay]

I just looked in mine

yeah

[next wagon]

which I never touched

[north bay]

and found the ones I had

because it hasn't saved to the ini yet

and they're also not those

[next wagon]

however, those values are the ones corresponding to the old 50 ADS universal value (pre-shadow legay ads in the calc I sent)

different old ADS values will mean different numbers, but the scaling between optics should be the same

[north bay]

ahh

[next wagon]

old 50 ADS with 6 hip @ 800 DPI was 55cm on the 1x, fwiw

so the 35 on the 1x is the same 55cm

assuming equal DPI and hip sens

[north bay]

that gives me this

[next wagon]

that's on 5 hip?

[north bay]

50 hip

with a multiplier

MouseSensitivityMultiplierUnit=0.001382

[next wagon]

yeah, I also run 0.002 mult

oh

that's a different one

[north bay]

its different than the ads mult

that's like an overall one

[next wagon]

yeah, that one changes the scale of the regular hip sens slider

[north bay]

yeah

does it change the scale of other stuff

ok yeah

it does

[next wagon]

sens is basically calculated hip * sens mult * optic multiplier * optic value

so yeah

[north bay]

ok

so its close to if that value is 0.002

and my base sens is 35

i run 1200 dpi

and just now have switched to 4:3

and like mid 80s fov

[next wagon]

yeah I don't really know why the calc says FOV affects sens anyway, but it shouldn't really matter honestly

FOV and aspect ratio*

that's weird, but the math checks out everywhere else

[north bay]

does that table above look ok then

[next wagon]

yeah, those are perfectly reasonable settings

lower sens is just easier so people more into the game than aiming will tend to run even lower, but it's perfectly fine

if anything, some of the most mechanically talented players do run slightly high sensitivities

[north bay]

so those also correspond to the "standard" with a single 50 mult as well if i understand the shadow legacy changes

[next wagon]

I think not, because for some weird reason the new "non advanced" ADS values are different than the ones before SL

which is stupid

[north bay]

weird

[next wagon]

doesn't really make any sense at all

I don't think anyone did the math on those, but I remember testing it when the changes went live and it was different

[north bay]

the sensitivity in this game in general is kinda nightmarish

[next wagon]

it's very annoying

it's also very weirdly set up from the ground up

defaults are just weird

[north bay]

the 1-100 slider is far more reminiscent of a like

[next wagon]

because the final 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 sensitivities are way too close to each other which just feels even weirder on aspect ratios different to 16:9

[north bay]

singleplayer story game

than an fps

oh?

wack

i might have to change that then

I've definitely learned my static leaves a lot to be desired

[next wagon]

that's how the defaults look for reference

[next wagon]

eh, low sens and high zoom optics are a good enough crutch in this game

seriously, you're not missing with a +100cm sens on a 2x

aiming is very forgiving, it's just everything else that's punishing for the most part

[north bay]

i guess yeah

oh yeah

do ppl usually run separate yaw and pitch to account for 4:3

[next wagon]

not really, I think I can only think of 1 person who did that

[north bay]

I'm kinda surprised

[next wagon]

realistically, you should always run different h/v since every aspect ratio is rectangular but I guess the brain gets used to it

[north bay]

yeah

though for ppl like me I have the vast majority of my time on 16:9 and so vertical feels weirdly fast in siege

[next wagon]

yeah, 4:3 will definitely feel a lot faster and it can be quite jarring with how fast sometimes people seem to swing on your screen

but 16:9 just ends up feeling too wide and makes seeing enemies on pixels harder so almost everyone will run 16:10 at least

and a lot also run lower FOVs than 90

[north bay]

yeah I was surprised just how beneficial 4:3 is

specifically in this game horizontal widening is huge

[next wagon]

it also became more common with the addition of the 1.5, the 2.0 and the acog going from 3 to 2.5 since now you can pretty much just use 1x and 1.5 and not get the downside of the narrower AR

it's pretty great

and this season's nerf to ADS speed also means people are slower on your screen so it just seems like a no brainer

but in reality it's not a necessity, and most of us are just used to it

[north bay]

ahhh

1.5 is really nice yeah

[next wagon]

it kinda has become a crutch

it's the most meta sight

[north bay]

lmfao i was reading this and not paying attention to game and just got domed

rn i think I just always tend to fire sooner than I should

[next wagon]

wdym? as in reacting when people quick peek you (as in a shoulder peek in a game like CS) and then getting prefired?

[north bay]

p much anything that isn't holding an angle

or prefiring

like i flick & click too early

[next wagon]

I don't think I quite get what you're trying to say, sorry

[north bay]

like, click too early and miss the shot, either because of single fire or because recoil

[next wagon]

ahh

yeah, getting used to recoil can be a a bit tricky since some guns have a fairly high first shot recoil (higher than the rest of the burst) so you have to get used to pulling down a bit more at the beginning of the spray

[north bay]

makes sense

ugh I'm in a ranked match and my team is barely sentient

ppl are dying to the easiest spots to punish and then not calling anything

[next wagon]

welcome to siege

[north bay]

also just letting clash walk around for free

[next wagon]

get used to it, because even diamonds and above won't put even the slightest effort into not throwing, let alone working together

the beauty of the game is in its complexity, which just gets wasted in ranked

especially if solo queuing

truly a tragedy

[north bay]

finding a stack is like my biggest problem in this game rn

[next wagon]

it's tough

mostly because very few people actually want to somewhat learn how to play and get better

most just queue ranked on autopilot

[north bay]

I've been back to this for like 4 days and already consuming a lot of YT content and similar on stuff about it

bit frustrating seeing a really interesting roam or similar and then being like

oh right yeah can't do that

need like 4 people

[next wagon]

yeah, it's a shame because it feels like the gap between the full-blown competitive experience and ranked is just huge

the complexity just makes it a lot wider than in other games as well, so most people playing ranked just never get to experience that

and it really plays like a totally different game

especially since after grinding ranked for a while, every time you play a site it's the same default strategy

and it gets repetitive

[north bay]

i think that's true of a ton of games

you get this near constant comms in a comp match

discussion and choosing of strats before stuff happens

i feel like ranked stops at calling out or some basic setups

[next wagon]

true, but the reason why I feel it's even worse with siege is because you have a lot more options in terms of how you can play each round

and proportionally, I think less is explored in ranked

[north bay]

mhm yeah

[next wagon]

also because it takes more effort

[north bay]

in TF2

the game i previously played competitively

that sorta stuff is big but

the amount you can do with it

and the extent to which its required in siege

is so much higher

[next wagon]

yep, and I guess that's what makes other "simpler" games more popular as they are more approachable

they are simpler, but not necessarily easier

[north bay]

yeah

[next wagon]

but not being overloaded makes the game more enjoyable for the average player

[north bay]

some may also not be necessarily "simpler" but just have complexity other than the specific like, siege information and teamwork focus

[next wagon]

true, I guess the right way to describe is that they might be simpler in terms of info and comms

[north bay]

I feel like a lot of people's issues with siege come from just not understanding utility

(i am in the a lot here lol)

[next wagon]

yeah, I guess it's the fact that having a good grasp of how and when to use utility and how and when to rely on your gun takes a lot of thinking

it's just not intuitive, especially because a lot of the time you can misstime utility by a second and completely waste it, which gets frustrating and makes people give up on it

it's a shame because I think the balance between gunplay and utility is what keeps the game interesting, but at the same time it's probably what limits its popularity

[north bay]

in this game it's also like

incredibly strongly biased towards utility in the sense that you can get into these situations where you're like

how am I even supposed to win that

because of utility

and that's off-putting to a lot of people if it's just kinda feeling unfair

[next wagon]

well yeah, I can see that but the thing is that a lot of the time you can actually counter a lot of that either by being aggressive and challenging at the right time, by knowing when to fall back, or even simply by setting yourself up properly in terms of operators and info

but that goes back to the whole complexity issue

knowing how to either prevent or react to those situations isn't something even most champs will be able to do since you really need serious competitive experience

[next wagon]

at least to prevent

but you can get away with pure gunskill a lot of the time tbf

[north bay]

that's fair

[next wagon]

most people will make mistakes and abusing them is the key to ranked lmao

[north bay]

i want to get good at this game

and rn I'm like

barely focusing on any gun stuff

[next wagon]

maybe I used the wrong term

I wouldn't say it's just gunskill

[north bay]

dm skill?

that's frequently what I hear it called in other games

[next wagon]

but rather that plus having a good grasp of timings and how to peek

yeah

[north bay]

yeah

peeking is crazy

I'm am trying to learn how to Shaiiko peek

[next wagon]

typically it's called microgame IME, as opposed to understanding of how the team should play a round which would be macrogame

yeah

don't just focus on the mechanical aspect of it tho

the low TTK really makes timing even more important a lot of the time

it's something that takes time, but you'll eventually start to notice that there are "windows" where you can make a play and have a pretty safe chance of winning a 1v1

[north bay]

hmm ok

[next wagon]

it's really what separates the best gunners at a tier 1 level

[north bay]

T1

I'm not even like a good rank ATM lol

[next wagon]

it probably is what helped making brazil the highest level region, you can check out players like Paluh (liquid), Kheyze (w7m) and Cyber (faze) to get an idea

lmao

ik ik

[north bay]

oh wait Brazil is the highest level region in siege?

that is wild

i think when i last really played EU were the big ones

[next wagon]

it sounds crazy, but it really helps to see just how they constantly adapt through the entirety of a fight (as in positioning previous to the actual fight and during it)

[north bay]

idk though

[next wagon]

depends, as far as individual fragging capacity and overall synergy brazilian teams are IMO still the best even though the region didn't win anything this past year (3 majors + SI)

[north bay]

ahhh

[next wagon]

they play aggressively and rely on coordination to frag

NA and EU are typically slower and more methodical

which works as well

[north bay]

i heard the current meta is pretty kill based

[next wagon]

it's becoming a bit more utility oriented, last year was more fragging focused but gunplay is definitely more important than it was during the penta/G2 era when EU was the king

[north bay]

I'm not sure exactly what to think of that both since low rank + I remember the days of 3 speed microhead ashes who could crouch like crazy

yeah ok that was like what I remember

I'd already stopped really playing myself

but I did watch the first invitational

[next wagon]

that would've been around 2017-8 right?

[north bay]

I believe so

I played from launch till like

Mira season

then break

then came back white noise for like 2 seasons

[next wagon]

most would say those were the golden days

I disagree, but I do think the game was more fun

it was just an unbalanced mess

it was just stupid how powerful peekers advantage used to be

the netcode improvements and overall speed changes made the game more interesting as now holding angles doesn't feel like you're throwing your life

and really makes fights more interesting as it's not a matter of who can peek who

[north bay]

fair

[next wagon]

also, OPs did get a bit more interesting as time went on

[north bay]

I agree that they sometimes got a little overbearing and complex

I feel like Echo and Zofia had that complaint a lot

A lot of relatively simple stuff and you'd have ops with now like

multiple abilities that are unrelated

in the case of zofia

or like

drone that stuns and flies and cloaks

[next wagon]

yeah I see that

echo is a pretty good example of how things changed tho

previously it was just used for plant denial, but now since we're in a more fragging oriented meta it's common to see echo drones helping roamers and overall everything being more active

at one point (2020- early 2021) the game was just so utility heavy gunplay almost didn't matter

attack would take well over 2 mins just to be able to start getting a plant setup

[north bay]

didn't they do the big change to round timers at one point

[next wagon]

so I'd say the current philosophy when it comes to Ops is to make them more useful throughout the round, but that does make them less straightforward

[next wagon]

you mean from 4 mins to 3 mins?

[north bay]

that's fair

[next wagon]

I think that was around 2016?

[north bay]

i think Azami is an example of great op design

[next wagon]

yeah, azami was actually one of the best releases imo

it just allows the defense to set up totally new angles but also to hold areas that you tipically wouldn't even think of before

stuff like holding CEO on bank, which typically would be impossible due to the windows

[north bay]

yeah just a very creative design

[next wagon]

or just being able to block an angle to rotate

it's just great overall

solis is also pretty great

[north bay]

i haven't played her

don't have Battlepass

I've got another team which doesn't say words

[next wagon]

ahh, it should be available 2 weeks after the season started

[next wagon]

painful

very painful

but yeah, solis is another one of those ops that allow the player to actively help

it's not just a gadget that you set up

and that sort of thing adds complexity, but it also keeps the game from going back to when utility just meant having shields and protecting them with ADSs and wamai disks

[north bay]

holy shit my mechanics are ass

what is thissss

i did not sleep and I am missing the easiest shit

[next wagon]

it happens

I typically can't play for shit if I'm tired

but also it's probably just recoil

it can make your aim seem bad when in reality you just missed because you haven't gotten used to it

[north bay]

is DM worth it at all

[next wagon]

I don't really play DM a lot, but it's a decent way to warm up and practice recoil

the main issue with it is that it doesn't really replicate the fights you tipically get in a real match

[north bay]

yeah

[next wagon]

and that you'll probably die to someone spawning behind you

[north bay]

fionapeek

[astral dagger]

oh yea ok i was refferinf to last seasons way but it seems simmilar this season

[next wagon]

I think it might be based off of peak MMR last season, since I ended dropping all the way to plat 2 the last days of the season but I'm still gaining 80RP around 3000RP but my peak was almost 4900

[next wagon]

that's some crazy packet loss lmao

[north bay]

the entire match was nutty high

[next wagon]

was that the servers dying or just your connection?

hopefully the former

[astral dagger]

hmm i peaked d3 last season and still playing against mostly high diaomonds last season cant figure it out

[north bay]

think it was the former

lmao first round with it i ace

[obtuse stratus]

why am i in copper

[next wagon]

new ranking system

[obtuse stratus]

there are coppers on my team as well

nice

also are hackers still a thing

[next wagon]

yes, everyone started at copper v

[obtuse stratus]

so what im seeing is that some ppl are diamonds and some people are silvers

[next wagon]

it can happen, you don't get matched based on rank anymore

or rather, skill rating is different from rank now

[obtuse stratus]

oh

i need to learn nighthaven labs

i am lost

and its bad

cuz its ranked

I really shouldn't have started throwing late last season thinking it wouldn't matter

barely hit emerald and I'm already earning less than 80RP

[barren citrus]

EU servers dead since yesterday. What a joke this has become… 😭😭

[barren citrus]

Ok, they are not offline, u can reach them with config file mod. But playing with 88ping just isnt fun.

[obtuse stratus]

am i a casual for thinking the new ranked system is fine

we won 5 in a row after that

[harsh palm]

how do u rank up in this game now

just games played?

[wanton sundial]

ye

[barren citrus]

yep, only win or lose counts, nothing else.

[barren citrus]

unless you were unranked last season, then u get like 50 per win and lose 28, while being GoldV... Yeah, very fun to be hardstuck gold very early in the season, while being a plat player...

i really hate this system and the servers this season. it makes me hate the game that i played most in the last years. unfortunately, not many FPS alternatives that dont look like a comicbook designed for 8year olds...

[hidden crater]

aww ty man

i put a decent amt of thinking into my stuff i try to ahve hidden messages and jus keep it unique yk

siege ppl jus copy and paste same shit

[vestal atlas]

ive decided to try play more siege cos theres no interesting fps rn

[hidden crater]

thats dope :D

this new szn is actually rlly good surprisngly

[vestal atlas]

yea seems quite fun

i havent played before but all i know is that the ranking system was based of placements and not like the apex type climb

[hidden crater]

they

jus changed

to apex type climb 😭

with val hidden mmr system

but it has made matchmaking 100x better

games are way more competitive

for the most part now

[vestal atlas]

yea ive had a few weird games

like in 2 of them there were plats/diamonds and this is like my first time actually getting into ranked

cause i recently just hit level 50

but even then it wasnt really a pubstomp it was still close games

[hidden crater]

silver - plat level is all the same skill

jus plat has more games played basicallyp

in the past

dont stress off playing certain ppl

skil l gap in the game is huge

u put a solid 1 to 2 weeks of intense learnign in ull alr be an average player

[vestal atlas]

Yeah i really need to get used to leaning properly

cause in some games, people are so quick i barely see them

[fluid bramble]

I haven't played the game in quite a long time

Is it still decent?

[obtuse stratus]

im having fun this season (omg having fun in siege what a shocker!)

id say its p decent

[pseudo mirage]

[north bay]

yeah idk how people do it

[cursive hollow]

is it worth getting into siege again

I have like 150 hours

bored of the game

[cursive hollow]

game feels crisp to aim in

but ive played 2 dms and seen 1 cheater already so

[keen crypt]

are the queue times long af in dms?

[cursive hollow]

uh

not rly

min or 2

if that

for me

just beat them twice lmao

[cursive hollow]

whast the current meta

for ops

also

whos the high sens player

s

like around 24cm

[mental charm]

jolly prolly was

but hes val player now

thaqil plays 17cm

i think

jolly played 9

[cursive hollow]

jeuss

anyone around 24cm

whos cracked aimer

[wicked bloom]

nobody who i sgood at r6 plays on a sens nearly that fast

literally only 1 player in the whole game

[cursive hollow]

uh

[wicked bloom]

ambi

other than that

not a single even remotely decent player

[cursive hollow]

Doesnt beaulo play high

[wicked bloom]

no

the highest sens ive a pro player use is 34cm

[cursive hollow]

doesnt feel that bad

[hidden crater]

ambi plays like 30-40 area

so does nuers

[wicked bloom]

not even close

[hidden crater]

ambi doesnt have good aim hes just an insane player

[wicked bloom]

ambi plays like 20

[hidden crater]

nuers has good aim tho he plays like

high 30s low 40s

[wicked bloom]

17 17 42 standard ads 800 dpi

default mutli

[hidden crater]

his 1.5 and high scopes r in the 40s

cuz standard ads

[wicked bloom]

those r his cm

[hidden crater]

he plays 7 7

[wicked bloom]

he used to 17 17

[hidden crater]

yeah ik

and his 1.5x prob feels around 60cm cuz he plays standard ads

u usually see him on 1.5s

[wicked bloom]

so literally nobody plays around 24 cm

nobody good\

[hidden crater]

u cant precisely control recoil in siege on high sens really

esp now

like u have to pull down such precise amts like on high sens u ju8s lose consistency in recoil control ud have to play like

5:4 or 4:3 holo only or something and put hella time into recoil and play low recoil weapons to be consistent gunplay wise

i dont think there is any reason to ever go below 30cm in siege its jus

ew....

[wicked bloom]

well in comp u can fs get away with a faster sens depending on the role

like 35-45

[hidden crater]

yeah u can get away with playing well on high sens

consistent mechanics tho nah

[wicked bloom]

in ranked if ur not on a slow sens ur trolling

[hidden crater]

i mean a good support player could play like 10cm and still be fine cuz low recoil weapons and ur role is so not like

gunplay dependent

[wicked bloom]

well

[hidden crater]

most consistent ppl gunplay wise in siege are Banned and Vladr

both played 60-80cm range

thats where i find myself performing the best as well

game was diff when they played tho to be fair

[wicked bloom]

yeah im ngl

on every role

u have to play on the lower end of sens

like even hb smoke players

[hidden crater]

yeah ur not precisely controlling smg 11 on like 20cm 😭

[wicked bloom]

yeah and most pl smoke player use a lower hip sens

for shotty acc

like brid for example

[hidden crater]

yeah thats smart

[wicked bloom]

6-6 400 dpi 1:1

[hidden crater]

alot of support player gunfights are literally just crosshair placement + micros

[keen crypt]

damn

[hidden crater]

ur never doing wide swings much or exposing urself to an angle ud have to flick to yk

sorta diff on other roles but

im playin smoke and hardbreach i might sit on 100cm ngl

[wicked bloom]

i dont think that would work in comp tho

there times

especially during executes on vboth atk and def

u need to be fluid with it

[hidden crater]

100cm ads

not gonna run 100cm hip 😭

that might be trolling

[wicked bloom]

yeah but for ranked if u play fast sens ur kinda a moron

there just isnt any upside other than like looking flashy for clips

i seen a vid of some overwatch player on like 1cm i think

i think he was trollin gbut dude

he was so bad

[astral dagger]

yes? there are

[wet sierra]

arent they both cheaters? bxnned is hwid banned too.....

[wicked bloom]

not u again 😂

[hidden crater]

[trim nest]

one question, there's no way to set the sens to number with decimal points? like 4.67 or sth?

[next wagon]

you can change the default multiplier, going from 0.02 to 0.002 then you can get a decimal place

it's just that the range is reduced to a tenth

[inland lark]

...

[north bay]

lmfao the flick from alibi onto the actual enemy

[north bay]

this is quick match lol

[north bay]

this is fucking nuts

[inland lark]

just too good

[inland lark]

and the flick back to me which downed me

[north bay]

love triangle but TKing

[trim nest]

not understand?

[inland lark]

5 in 0.02 (default) is equivalent to 50 in 0.002 multiplier

[trim nest]

ah

OK gonna try

[uncut cloak]

does anyone have any tips on learning shaiko peak

trying to relearn it and my god im strugglin

[trim nest]

https://youtu.be/hTlN8VhBbKo not sure if this one helps or not

[uncut cloak]

yeah thats a rlly good video explaining it ty

[next wagon]

I mean, it's just a regular q-e but you start already leaned instead of not

there's not a lot to the mechanics of it

and it doesn't really cover when and why to use it too well

[north bay]

the multiplier is the number of degrees per mouse sensor count, fwiw

[next wagon]

degrees or rads?

[upbeat garnet]

how long does it take aprox to get level 50 so i can play ranked in siege

[uncut marsh]

1st game of this season

very nice

no cheaters? consider yourself lucky

[daring hamlet]

guys what settings do i put on in order to have all graphic settings at the lowest except my skins? i got a beefy pc so i want skins n shit to look really nice, but i also want good clarity by having all other settings as low as possible

[next wagon]

it's just textures that affect how skins look for the most part

[vestal atlas]

i think antistropic filtering also does slightly

[daring hamlet]

mmm ive got textures on the highest, shaders, and antistropic but skins still look crappy hahah

[north bay]

man they must get crazy renown!

[daring hamlet]

whats the best way to get renown when youre new so i can start unlocking 10k operators ?

[vestal atlas]

Ik theres a free renown booster in the rewards section of ubisoft

And theres a 3 day one if u have enough ucoins

[astral dagger]

HAHHAHA BRO

[daring hamlet]

ahhhhhhh sweet thanks bro

ive just seen there 18 free operators if you play extraction but everytime i try do the demo, it says i need an activation code

dont see anything on steam or when i launch r6 that says my code :/

[daring hamlet]

also what’s the fastest way of getting to lvl 50? am i jus supposed to play quick match for like 10 days in order to get from lvl 1 to 50?😭😂

[mental charm]

no point

just play on whatever sens is comfortable don't think too much about it

ohh you dont mean for aim trainers proly

@uncut cloak https://kurtextrem.de/sens.html

thats a sens calculator, just enter your aspect ratio n fov and then use 83 for the pre shadow legacy sens cause thats 1:1

[uncut marsh]

I am hardstuck copper

0.4 W/L

Why are my games so hard this season

[north bay]

mouse-sensitivity.com but you have to edit config and then it's basically not worth it cause sights

[north bay]

Mine are mostly because I'm bad + I take dumb fights cause I'm used to FPS where I just win on gunskill

[mental charm]

hidden mmr is prolly high'

[north bay]

yeah though it would go down with losing

[knotty oracle]

I peaked in y4s1 winbastion plat 3 and plat 3 in phatom sight as a casual player, I miss this game as my most played game ever at 1k hours, after all this time is it too late to comeback again?

[uncut marsh]

I got 1.5KD and 0.4W/L like how is that even possible

KD doesn't mean much anyways but yeah

I just can't win any games this season 😭

[next wagon]

guess that depends on your hidden MMR tho

I found it pretty chill to rank up all the way up to champ but I was always playing the very same people I was playing last season

[next wagon]

you can basically just max all the sliders and it'll do the same thing, since ADS sens can't be higher than hipfire

[astral dagger]

2 gamees 5 aces lmao

[north bay]

meanwhile i have bad kd and solid win/loss

[north bay]

do y'all have any kovasks recommendations and similar for R6

[uncut marsh]

Yeah but you're not human so it doesn't count

[north bay]

I've learned siege becomes nearly unplayable if I have almost any amount of alcohol in my system

[next wagon]

I had a 0.8kd week last week, so I clearly bleed

[next wagon]

nah, I swear alcohol makes me play aggro af and I end up catching everyone off guard

[north bay]

I don't think I know enough to pull that off well

it just nukes my reactions and thus a lot of the gunplay I can do

[north bay]

i just lost a clutch to clientside debris blocking my entire view

[north bay]

https://streamable.com/ieqqjp

[astral dagger]

Rn iam only matching against champs while iam cooper

[astral dagger]

rn i have a kd of 2 and a negative wr lol

[next wagon]

that's how it works if your MMR is champ

I started the season the same way

[astral dagger]

yea but i dont like it i just want to chill and iam playing mostly diaomonds

[next wagon]

it's ranked, you can always play unranked or casual

[astral dagger]

nah thats not fun no one tries there

but i guess rn ranked is fun bec i dont have to sweat but i think my smurfs mmr will adjust soon aswell

but in the end thats how it is mmr will adjust too skill and ill cant play just for fun anymore

[north bay]

I'm fine with tryharding if it's people at my level

my main issue is the last couple matches, 4-5 at least, have had massive MMR diff

the siege analyst overlay thing ha the avg team MMR and then the calculated chances of winning and it's regularly a like, 400-600 gap

[next wagon]

yeah, I'm pretty sure that the matchmaking isn't prioritizing fair games as much just to reduce queue times this season

even late at night I can find games in 10-15 minutes at most, while previous seasons 30-45 minutes wasn't uncommon

[north bay]

tbf this is pretty nice

[next wagon]

eh, it's fine until you're solo-qing, ran into pros and have nothing but npcs on your team

I feel like they should make a bit more strict at higher ranks

or rather, high MMRs

I like 5 stacking, but sometimes I just want to queue a few games and have decent enough teammates and pairing people who barely hit diamond against +6k RP champs is not a good idea

[north bay]

as we're talking about this i just got into a match where they have a champ

we have almost exactly equal team avg MMR

[next wagon]

don't be too scared, with over 5k champs it doesn't mean much

and so many of them are boosted

[north bay]

fair

[next wagon]

it's ridiculous

[north bay]

tbf top 5000 vs. me is still a crazy diff

but with team....

[next wagon]

eh, tbf siege is probably the game were rank and individual skill can be the most apart

also, if you disable tracker overlays you'll be pleasantly surprised by how above your rank you can punch

at least as long as the enemy team isn't 5 stacking

[north bay]

yeah I've had some good experiences in that respect

i really want to find a good stack

[next wagon]

yeah, that's hard

maybe you can try FPL-C or whatever the open FPL hub for NA is called

the latam one is pretty active here, but I have no clue about NA

it's a decent way to get a bit of competitive play experience and find slightly better people to play with

[north bay]

oh how would I find this sorta thing?

[next wagon]

https://www.faceit.com/en/hub/64a64d0e-aadb-44a1-b070-418bfccb26b9/NA - R6TM - Road to FPL-C

that's the one

if it works like the latam one, top 2 each season gets to the actual FPL with t1/t2 players

I can't comment on how the average gamer is going to behave in there, but given there's some incentive to play well maybe it won't be horrible

[north bay]

ouch

it requires faceit AC

which needs hyperV to be disabled

do you think there'd be gamers for a silver person lol

[next wagon]

Eh, it'd probably be a bit rough but you could probably learn a lot faster

It's a bit of "try at your own risk" kind of thing

Otoh, ranked is painful but at least it's consistently painful

You know what you'll get lmao

If you learn some basic site setups and attacks you can probably hold your own

[north bay]

do you have any reccs for yt or similar for those?

I've figured a couple cool ones out on my own but it's helpful to actually know something for every map and site

We pulled a pretty nasty kafe kitchen hold with me on Azami and someone else on Mira today, actual pixel peek hell for defenders

though even that depended a bunch on them mostly choosing to push bakery and not VIP

[astral dagger]

tbf this season champ is like last season low diamond

every last season diaomond who plays alot can get it probably even plats

[north bay]

true

[north bay]

game has been down like most of the last 2 days

[next wagon]

I think there are some guys on youtube making decent educational content (poxonlox is one I think?) but realistically it's a lot better to see what's done in t1 matches. It's not like you're going to replicate that in a ranked game, but the understanding of how those setups work lets you apply whatever you can into your games

Highlights from scrims/games are also a good way to see how different setups are played and a lot of players upload those. And you also get to hear comms and see how they try to coordinate

[next wagon]

When I first got into siege (2017 because I'm a boomer) this was the kind of stuff that drew me in as well. It was so much fun coming up with strats like those

The unfortunate thing is that as you (and your opponents) get better you can rely less and less on the utility itself and it becomes more a matter of how you and your team use that utility to find openings to be aggressive, etc. since utility can and, you have to assume, will be destroyed so you really have to be active and understand that a good setup can give you a small margin but you have to take advantage of it

I say this because when I was first starting in comp, I considered myself a genius for coming up with great strats but I was so passive and overall a bad gunner that I just couldn't take advantage of them and hoped that the setup itself would be enough

Probably didn't need to write an essay, but this is a fascinating topic for me anyway

[north bay]

Yeah I used to just do strats and then not actually like

shoot with them or anything LOL

[wicked bloom]

https://youtu.be/LtASrgksD-Q

[north bay]

also just droning out stuff is not done at the rank I'm at

putting a frost under a window and then watching that window is practically a guaranteed kill

[next wagon]

yeah, as far ranked goes just get kills and carry for now

it's good to develop confidence and learn how to be aggressive

[wicked bloom]

the game is slowing down a lot

the meta last season was super aggro and latm teams were dominating

but with the new speed changes

you will see at invite teams like virtus pro will be the best

virtus pro is old empire

and they are under the name outsiders bc it’s a Russian org

[next wagon]

being aggressive doesn't mean peeking only

yes, the game is slowing down now that everyone is a 1 speed ADSed

but it's most likely a change for the better in the long run

devs are trying to get siege as close to cs/val as possible, and making it harder to run around like an idiot and abusing peekers adv is one way to do it

[wicked bloom]

I haven’t played val in a fat minute

but people were definitely running around like idiots

[next wagon]

no, the point is you can't shoot while moving in cs/val

one of the reasons why peekers advantage is so massive in siege is because you could run around ADSed as a 3 speed and there were no downsides to it

[north bay]

imo this is a very good thing

but i think it definitely varies

a lot of my friends dislike siege and the root cause has seemed to largely be the focus on gamesense and creativity and stuff

one of my friends remarked on how in CS / Val you're basically just watching the same corner every match compared to siege where people come from all sorts of positions and angles and killholes

[next wagon]

as far as gunplay goes I do like the changes, it makes holding angles more viable and you can be aggressive while doing so

the farther back you go in siege's history the worst it was, previously you could get swung by even faster 3 speeds and the overall worse netcode just made it terrible to hold angles relatively

[next wagon]

yeah, that happens

because all that stuff isn't enjoyable in ranked so they end up thinking siege is just a poorly balanced game

[north bay]

if you don't know the map it's pretty awful at the start

This! I switched from r6 to val and val, despite the mechanics one has to master, is so much easier gamesense wise. There are useally only 3 ways the enemies come from, in siege they come from below, from up, from window, from abreached wall etc…

[astral dagger]

siege one of the most complicated shooters yeah angles,operators,guns,strats,routes,sound,mechanics,tons of calls etc

[north bay]

I have discovered that Evan Braddock dude on YT and I am laughing my ass off

[north bay]

omfg I changed my horizontal sens for the 4:3 and it's way better feeling

[next wagon]

that's cursed

how much did you change it tho?

[north bay]

just like

the actual multiplier to make the screen distance the same as 16:9

so 75%

otherwise the same mouse movement visually is "faster" on horizontal than vertical

you can definitely get used to it without that change but it's just easier for me since it feels like there's no diff to other games now

[next wagon]

I mean, it's reasonable, but I'd say it's easier to just get used to it

especially if you switch around between 4:3 and other aspect ratios

it's fun to experiment tho

[north bay]

i don't really switch on siege

16:9 honestly kinda feels wrong in this game

[next wagon]

16:9 is just ridiculous (hfov is just ridiculously high), but 16:10 and 3:2 can also work

[north bay]

might try those out

I'm on 90 fov 4:3

[next wagon]

yeah, that's what I play too

but 3:2 90 is also nice every once in a while

[north bay]

I'll have to try it

tbh the ratio format is also kinda annoying to me

wish they just put it as 1:x

[next wagon]

eh, I think it's just cleaner this way and it's just as easy to visualize

hopefully everyone playing this game can tell how much wider than taller something on 16:10, 3:2 or 4:3 is

[north bay]

i cannot and my job is mathematics LOL

well not really that i cannot but it requires a bit of thought

[next wagon]

nah, you're trolling

16:10 just means 60% wider and you know it

[wheat nebula]

same

i love making r6s concepts

[north bay]

i genuinely have to think about it for a second lol

[north bay]

wdym

[wheat nebula]

i have entire year concept

i just need to make it work

YK1

Also a Singleplayer Campaign OST)

I am not reworking game btw

i am just adding content and some new modes

such as CTF / Pro League / many more

Pro League mode: (WIP)
--Restrictions--
-Can be accessed within players that played more than 150 Emerald II+ games within 2 seasons
-Have a Exemplary behaviour status
-Full team only
-150+ account level

wait

lemme make a PS UI art)

[north bay]

emerald II seems kinda arbitrary, I'd go with just like emerald I

but also that sorta thing is usually better served by pugs and scrims

IDK exactly how it works in Siege but I'd imagine it's similar
