EUS are just hackers
and the death stacks until they come across hackers
which if lucky is like 3 games
I'm not sure how some blatant people stay unbanned for sometime
Cus reports don't really work
cause ubi doesnt manual ban
Rely on the detection system
and BE is easy to cheat around
because its a dogshit anti cheat at the level ubi uses it at
Well doesn't ubi have 2fa?
With r6 its 2 step
LOL
for ranked
2step is dogshit
but thats for email
you can do it through an email
right
it takes 30 seconds to make an email
it needs to be tied to phone #
that way if an acc gets banned on a phone # they cant use the same fucking number
no you dont
both my alts 2fa were through their emails
I mean you can get phone numbers for cents
you cant get phone # and google authenticator for cents
because thats what my main is through
and thats the best way to do 2FA
Like there is no possible way anyone can tell me that Ubisoft has not dropped the ball at every step of anti cheat/preventative measures
actual dogshit dev team
Yeah
terrible fucking company
They just want monie
they managed to fuck up roll back
they managed to fuck up 2fa
they mange to fuck up teh elo system
its a joke
they dont even get money from hackers
thats the funny part
once as a silver i went against diamond >.>
hackers buy cracked accounts then hold servers, ddos, make players quit, etc
10/10 elo system
if anything, Ubi loses a shitton of money
due to hackers
like I have some friends who were holding a hacker lobby for 3 hours the other day
because the hackers froze the lobby
thats a shitton of money that ubisoft is losing
by having what is essentially an unusable server space
if ubisoft is a bad company
GG @ocean jewel, you just advanced to level 5 !
Yeah but i don't enjoy rep systems
I dont either
because you could get bad team mtaes
I dont know how anyone stays sane playing the game solo
Idk i just can't play constantly play with randoms
i know what would fix the hacker problem! so what they need to do is add a seasonal operator skin called "rolling in shit and dirt" at a 20% discount to all pl orgs
na just add a gamemode for banned people
boom, hacker problem solved, idk how but it is
so people can hvh
i mean they could just shadowban people
and put them in lobbies with only other shadowbanned people
yea they could
but you know what that would take?
them to actually manually review and ban accounts
another thing they could do
do what CS does
where if youre unranked
you can only win 2 matches a day
like
????????
and then just change ranked to win 10 to be placed
and instead of resetting ranks every season
just decay them to what they would be if they were reset to unranked
hire me, please
big brain
ubisoft has no intetion
in fixing the issues
the current ranked system has
it is obvious
it is in no way a priority for them
rep is hard
because
if ppl get bad teammates, bad repp
if some1 teammate has 0k - bad rep
i thought rep was for cheating and tking
oh if its not player voted idk
oh yeah my bad
if its not player voted eh. but i mean itll only work for tk imo
When they implement their replay system, it better come with an Overwatch system.
They have to do something.
They're bad, meaning they take forever to do things, but they're not entirely stupid.
They made a unique good game and they want money.
when the person who checks the team in sleeps in 
If they don't, game dies = no money.
F @astral dagger
i was meant to me playing r6 masters rn
Siege gets a lot of money off of console players and the casual player base
as in the people who never have to deal with hackers
the people the game is currently putting off are the higher ranked PC players
and the Pros
who while have a not so insignificant following
the majority of the playerbase isnt competitive and dont listen to their complaining
they make money off of skins
F @astral dagger
pl is just marketing for casual players and skins
mhmmm
cause they have a dogshit system
obvsly
none of us inhere
actually fall into ubi's main audience
and thats why we agree on so much
which seems right to us
but no one will ever fix it
i need to clip again
@astral dagger the bit of confusion with the angle checking lmao
till you actually realize you got the kill
happens all the time with those type of shots
My hipfire-to-ads aim is so bad
Like the process of adsing
Will quickscope onetap in thunt help
prac it in thunt
like i spam ads so much
all the time when i play
i just hammer right click
So rmb one tap rmb one tap
me with the toggle aim bros
HOLLLDF
yes
Yes
having used both extensively
oh ._.
hold is better
wait how
the pressure you exert on your mouse
is not significant
also hold isnt faster
its the same speed
GG @frank compass, you just advanced to level 27 !
idk it is for me
cool @coarse vale
nah i mean
i dont think hold would make u ads faster than toggle
yes
Its more convenient??
spamming ads
yes
Yeahh
i like toggle because i dont want to hold the button while picking my mouse up
hold is better for flex/aggressive playstyle
why would you ever pick up ur mouse
while ads'd?
obvsly it doest make you faster adsing in, as the first click both with hold and toggle makes you ads
but you get out faster
and its easier
to get back into ads
like its more smooth to me
why would you ever pick up ur mouse out of mouse room?
what pad do you have?
mp510
dimensions
lmao wtf @astral dagger
45cmx35cm? @surreal cosmos
17.71 x 13.78
in or cm?
in
Result:
44.8063
60
yea you shouldnt need to be readjusting your mouse
while ads'd
if you are
then you need to play from hip more or center your mouse more efficiently
i put my mouse in the middle so idk 22cm for left and right
Aww u guys w the large mousepads
aww u guys w the big monitors >.<
:>
its better
Try for a period
thats why
like its pref
so use what works for you
but you should try hold for a week or two
the only reason why i use toggle is csgo awp i had toggle so i got used to it
lol
ugh
Where can i find vids about movements and stuff during gunfights?
in gunfights minimize leaning
gunfights dont last very long in siege tho
so like
theres no way to specifically move
during a gunfight
minimize leaning as in dont spam lean during a fight or just dont lean during a fight
is working on them
so just focus on it
and for that
when playing
you literally just dont have to be brai nafk
What
during a fight i would lean and if i get to the corner of a wall i lean opposite way so im always either in a left or right lean
like you know that you dont exactly know how to peak
so when i play f.e.
i dont peek mindlessly
i actually thing about what im going to do
and how im going to peek
when i repeek
i think about adjusting height level
all that stuff
actually map it out in your brain
i always think about
dont play on auto pilot
how im gonna lose the gunfight
and then I do the exact same thing
I visualize
its a terrible habit
And im nervous in ranked
that doesnt help
Soloqing
what region are you?
SEAS
oh nvm
And im nervous in ranked
@inland lark then stop caring
literally
all you need to do
Just play?
I dont think that helps that much tbh @astral dagger
Play like its casual?
^^^ if u dont give one shit bout ur rank u play better
GG @surreal cosmos, you just advanced to level 7 !
Gold 1
like I still get nervous on my alt from time to time even when idc abt the rank
its literally what makes you nervous
No, dont care about losing or winning
thats why you get mad or nervous
when i dont care bout my rank i do better
Alright then
Im indeed afraid
thats why you shouldnt care about rank
nervous bout that 1v2? nah fam if u dont care about winning or losing it wouldnt matter. might be our stupid logic
fi you want to improve
Aleight then
its hard to not care but
obvsly you should want to win
but if you rly put emphasis on your rank and are afraid of losing
well yeah im saying dont care bout rank
idk if I fully agree with that
dont think your enemy is better than you
like im not afraid of losing
thats when i get nervous
I just despise the feeling of losing
like its mentally painful
to lose
unless I talk myself into a state of defeat before the game starts
but then that doesnt really help with performance at all
yeah same thats competitice nature
but when you play and are in a clutch
but you get afraid of what might come after
you cant focus on the game
so im saying you shouldnt care about your rank
So all i care is drone properly, stay with teammates (?) And do what i need to do
ye
and also dont be afraid of dieing
thats what you notice in gold
their entry dies
and instead of someone going for a trade
or taking his position
they just afk and hold angles
cuz they dont wanna die
so they dont refrag
@inland lark it might sound a bit wierd
but if you are playing in a rank like gold
honestly just play of your mates
like use them as bait / when they die get the frag
totally
if you dont just sit on a echo drone for 3 minutes till your team is ded and you get rushed
90% of the time your team will insta lock fraggers in ranked and roam the map
playing anchor cant hurt
Echo is quite commonly banned from the matches inplayed
ye that was a joke xd
I think for soloq
So i play rook
Ahh
you can lead the uncoordinated team around the map for 2 minutes and pick kills cuz they dont drone
but most ppl in ranked play roams for kills
Ye so when they roam theres no one in site so i just anchor
I play ela angled grip to quick scope ppl
but thats not the point
ye
the thing is
in relatively low elo
on attack
you just drone and get free kills by that
But ye the reason i dont roam is because im scared and stuff so needa change
thats the easiest way to play attack
and for defense
you either roam rly good
or you anker and hold a door and wait for them to sprint in
cuz they dont drone
in lower ranks drones literally win the game
the easiest to use, low risk high reward tool
when attacking you get free kills cuz enemies are often roaming solo, you get intel on them with the drone and can pick them up
golds on NA drone like no other
on defense you either roam and chase them around the whole map for 2 minutes cuz they dont know how to drone
or you hold a door and get free kills cuz they dont drone
@frank compass most golds dont drone in my experience XD
they insta log fragging ops
and play for kills
XD
but lack the ability to understand what theyre doing
In seas they drone decently
and gunskill isnt there for na golds
aljo
im just lurking
in gold-plat
on eu
just sit at the most common spots
for enemies to rotate
and farm kills
yea I usually am high plat on eu and play like an idiot
it works
cause im better
:)))))))))
XD
ping is aids tho
I mean if u win open gunfights u are better than ur opponent
LOLOL
it is
AHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA
LIKE ITS FUCKING UNO REVERSE
i was dieing
infront of my pc
racingcar08 couldnt take it
@frank compass nother one
........................
you can even shoot that from window
like
??????????????
dude
its good use
of utility
wdym
AHAHAH
@frank compass
this one
is the best
out of them
this is giving me a mental breakdown
im going through my screenshots
^ that happens alot in my experience
All they could do is just prone
And its not even safe
lol
trueeeeee
Ahahaha
idk where i find those ppl
ive seen those miras in casual
its all ranked mini
Usually, when someone tunes into a world champion’s Twitch stream, it’s to see them do something crazy. To watch and learn as these digital gods provide a routine demonstration of why they’re the best.
But when it comes to the one and only King of Siege, the people don’t want...
has anyone before seen that clip
its with timestemp
i mean the ela part
"world champion"

is this true?
its not about the kg stuff
i just mean the ela clip by atmosphere
Didnt he win season 1 invitational
ye he won
by Yung, nvK, and Canadian
please delete that video
@frank compass ?
whos that ?
Meme George might be my least favorite person in the Siege community.
coconut bruh
is also rly high on the list
and the disgust i feel for get flanked
and his viewers
is immeasurable
"youre playing fuze wrong"
he is at 1.40 in the round
the fact
that he dares
to do this kind of shit
and doesnt die
is insane
i dont like siege content creators outside of reaper_en and mr homeless
gold*
too many ppl think reaper's opinion/analysis is like the word of god
and i still wouldnt end up there
if i tried
if i was on get flankeds level
i would be ashamed
looking at my own gameplay
in my vids
and at the same time trying to
tell ppl
how to improve
his audience
is destined
to be hardstuck
just like him
his channel is literally designed to be a circle jerk
yes
From now on every person that tells me "I know that, I have played a go4" ends up on my troll list.
I know that, I have played a go4
XD
And whoever was asking for my settings the other day my brightness is on 67
I know that, I've never played a go4
I know that, I have played a go4
I have a go4 champions charm as well
and a go4 participation charm!
bet
lol
I know that, ive played a go4
You dont like coconut brah? “What is up my coconut brahs” said really weird
Yo boy roy is the dopest one
Not content just in general
Ive played w roy before
hes a really cool guy
ye
I havent watched his content since I was on xbox tho
i like him
I met him at the raleigh major
Priest is dope too but ive never watched a single one of his vids
Varsity gaming is a G as well but i dont watch his videos either
I am subbed tho lol
Zironic is probably high up there
Dude is dope as fuck
fuck zironic
Usually Zironic is a dick but idk
That one caster who looks the most normal but is the lamest sucks
Stoax
I like stoax
zironic is wierd idk
hes decent at the game and is a good caster
fuck zironic
only OGs will understand
Hes good but dude is a fuckin lame-o
interro is ass at the game ngl
Zironic's big brain plays are so creative. I'll always give him credit for that.
For sure.
should i join 4:3 84 gang?
im 16:10 90
83-87 FOV
I tried 16:10 for a few days but it just didn't feel right on cs so I switched back
https://streamable.com/f16t7q drones? where were going we dont need drones
i love smurfing with the boys
Smurfing sucks. Playing low ranks is so much harder than playing high ranks.
I think that is true for solo queue but not for stacking
i feel like i do better solo queuing than playing with randoms
like kd wise or wl?
kd i think and maybe wl
idk i just can't play with randoms
too awkward and it just feels like solo queuing with how people play
low ranks are easier solo
than "high" ranks
because plat is actually full of shitty players
I would rather solo q silver/gold than anywhere in plat
I'm solo qing silver/gold rn
like at least I expect my teammates to be bots in silver/gold
whenever i try to 5 stack i instantly regret it most of the times
I like 5 stacking with certain groups
otherwise its usually miserable
its really frustrating when you 5 stack and no one does well so you are expecting to win and you just repeatedly lose to braindead players
i mean i could 5 stack if i did with the same people but that never happens
not my smurf account, not my elo 🤷♂️
One time i did solo q i got put against some ash aimbro
and we both were carrying our teams until 4-4
but yeah sometimes you get good teammates sometimes you don't
@vivid jolt people find low ranks hard becuase they underestimate the skill gap
It's because I can't predict stupidity.
^
.
im getting tired of all the game breaking bugs
walls not opening when breached, bugged barricades, teleporting rappelers
monkey moment
Ranked demons took my elo
Was 20 off diamond now I'm 200 off

Dudes funny. In his comment section he said “i dont really drone or strat or anything, i just kill people” lolol
“I let my teammates do that”
Vlad would have some words for me doing that but I do believe he has some of the best shots out of most other "Ranked Stars."
So I was thinking similarly.
Added him.
Will start adding more "Ranked Stars" and YouTubers.
Assuming they're actually possessing great aim and show that through video, of course.
protest the panbazou addition?
that is what I meant
I said I wanted to be looser about it but said no to a couple others. Figured it's about time I add more youtubers.
I can section them off.
And let King George have his own section.

I want to forget he exists
XD
My biggest problem with siege content creators is that they don’t stay in their lane. Too often do I see bikinibodhi and get flanked think that their word is an absolute especially when it comes to their balancing suggestions
GG @mental snow, you just advanced to level 9 !
toast added panbazou im never watching Korean women eat live octopus with him again

and rampy or fultz isn’t in the list, but panbazou is 
toast 🤡
extreme 🤡
Oh FUCK I forgot to add the SSG kids.
I meant t o do that during Invite.
Also Elemzje.
Elemzje frags out what do you mean.
he plays anchor and nade ops
is UUNO on there?
not that hes a consistent fragger anymore
also toast for the love of god
alphabetize it
Who cares what he plays, he frags.
UUNO is on there.
Oh he's on my personal one. I didn't update the pinned one.
I can even give you a sheet that will calc the cm/360 for you and all you have to do is input sens values without going to the calc
If you'd like to make an improved version then be my guest.
keeping setting docs up to date is a pain
if you wanna send me a list of players and their settings
I can make a spreadsheet for it tho
and then Ill email u the sheet and give ownership and you can decide what to do w it
My old Pro Settings doc is still around somewhere
but its a year out of date
year + for some players
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nPNVeTsKVW_qTfWmjZS3yJk2_K2LsKKg8Hb3nDI_vYQ/edit?usp=sharing
here
if you want to use it
it just occurred to me theres an even easier way to do this doc
also anyone can edit that link so that wasnt my brightest idea
UUNO's settings are nion-impossible to find.
I've searched through 20 sources.
None match.
I know what his old settings are
the problem is he changes constatntly
and stopped streaming
so you cant find them anymore
actually
I know where to find them
I already made the educated guess.
4:3 90
6-6-60 800dpi
hold lean and aim
those are his settings as of the forze match
Understandable.
thats how I always used to get settings for my spreadsheet
Seems he went back.
mhmmm
the only times that ever fails (in my exp) was with joonas' settings and fultz's settings
cause joonas' records the wrong ini and fultz's doesnt have an ini
but uuno had 3 identical inis
and the pictures matched the ratio in the ini
so thats like 99% his settings
same
Only hide in corners like a bitch hiding from the ranked demons
Ranked demons trying to take me out of diamond elo
It won't happen
Never!
Updated the best Siege aimer' cm sheet.
i mean i wouldnt call pengu a top tier aimer
but its a good place
for newbies to look
No no, he is a good aimer just not flashy
he gets most of his kills off gamesense and positioning
theres nothing special about his mouse control
I don't care about what people think of certain people on the list. The list is a combination of those proficient in raw aim (some ranked stars) and those with consistent fragging ability (many PL players). Both of which are skilled in putting a bullet on target and that's all that matters.
Also Pengu may be one of the best aimers in the entirety of Siege. A K/D that consistently does not come without knowing how to land your shots every time.
Consistency is the most important measure of skill.
Pengu has one of the lowest hs ratios in a game that revolves around hs
And yet still the highest K/D of any player ever from the longest playing player ever.
Says something.
yea
because hes insanely consistent with his playstyle, positioning, and has the most hours out of any T1 player so he has for the most part perfected how to play every scenario
that doesnt mean he has good aim
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Id still put him on there
cause hes Pengu
Aiming only has one objective: put a bullet on target.
I don't care if he uses keyboard arrows to aim, if he lands more bullets than everybody else, he's a proficient aimer. That goes for anybody in any game.
It never matters how you do it.
Unless it's for content creation.
thats an interesting but understandable perspective
Crosshair placement and positioning are also parts of aim imo
They absolutely are.
Godly is on the list not because his aim is good. It's mediocre. His movement is impeccable. was impeccable. Actually he's fallen off really hard lately. He used to be a lot better.
godly's xhair placement is also better than average
I wouldn't agree with that, godly is a mediocre ranked player at best in my opinion in all aspects
his movement isnt special tho
like he moves the same as every ranked player
spoit has prob the best movement out of the ranked stars
Kyno has the most interesting(?) use of movement Ive seen out of any ranked player tho
Kyno is up there.
like idk if I should even call kyno's movement exceptional
its good
but its good for different reasons than most people
hes just very creative with it at times
all the ranked star Brazilians are godly clones to an extent (kyno,krol,gmz etc)
strong reliance on movement and crosshair placement over mouse control/flicking etc
which isn’t a bad thing
just a different approach
mhmmmm
Vlad how long have you been on pc/r6?
G-SR, G-SR-SE, InkedGaming (Sparky), Glorious X - XXXL, Artisan Zero.
In that order of slowest to fastest.
Mousepad mastersheet
http://bit.ly/30cWlUe
s-mousepad
Is slowest the most ideal?
Depends what you want. The faster you go is a tradeoff of stopping power (initial accuracy) for microadjustments.
All of those pads I mentioned are control pads and have good stopping power regardless.
Just some more than others.
I have to use my g-sr vertically because its so worn now
You don't have to use control pads. I just recommend control pads for consistency's sake. When 1 bullet matters so much I find performance much more reliable on slower pads across the board with high tier players.
control pads are just objectively better for low ttk games that require minimal tracking
hien is fantastic
Zero > hien for siege imo
agreed, Hien is the better overall pad tho imo
is hien really worth cuz i only have mp510
I feel bad for the Faze players who are sponsored by steelseries
like they really have to deal with the worst peripherals
Alphama's underrated.
agreed
Muzi op
what multiplier would I use to play 11 on 800 dpi instead of 400
thanks
I been saying alphama is underrated for years
Geo is a very good player, with very boo boo aim
that leak is 3 months old
and that team will shit the bed
2.5 good players on that team
I know it's old.
I more posted it to contrast the good player conversation.
Need to balance by talking shit about the inevitable bad players here.
How Drip got on a team is beyond me.

How do I help a very small streamer grow(as a veiwer)?
not the place to ask
I guess.. sorry then
That's not up to you as a viewer.
thats kinda what I meant by the "not the place to ask"
errr
well
I meant more along the lines of theres nothing we can tell you
to assist in that endeavor

How was Valorant? @mental snow
They mastered everything except at its core its just a worse cs
in terms of mechanics
Still a better game than siege, 5 years in and game breaking bugs around every corner
shit devs
patching on old versions of the game
They got all the small stuff right. The game is just boring
bugs from y1
and the game legit doesnt work outside of comp
ppl in ranked dont play it right
@mental snow well, if you find cs boring you would probably find val boring since they are the same game
and there is no way to force them too
There are more rat corners than csgo and the more unforgiving movement makes it so people play like pussies and rat out (compared to cs)
there is also not a lot of intel gathering utility
mostly just lethal
ppl play like rats
so its hard to punish people sitting in corners bc you have to be choosey with your lethal
probably biggest similarity to league
I literally cant play lol
cuz it just makes me angry
as all my mates have an iq of 50
Riot Games announces a Bug Bounty Program for VALORANT’s anti-cheat Vanguard with rewards between $25,000 and $100,000:
https://hackerone.com/riot/
Ubi devs don't do anything close to this
cuz their anti cheat
legit doesnt exist
lmao
How does Val movement compare to CS?
it appears to be a reskin
Similar, but overall much slower
yo imagine jumping in siege
Would be like bf
zou zouing and shit
you dont have to jump
if all you need to do to teleport over the enemy screen is rappel in
anyone got that calc with the multigame?
had siege there too, could input your multiplier
no
it was a jscalc
found
nvm
thats not it
thaaats it
Why do people use 83 ads over 84 I get that it’s 1to1 but 84 is literally perfectly 1to1 for example 10-10-83-400dpi is 9.96 holo sens and 10-10-84-400dpi is 10holo sens don’t get why people don’t just use the 84
I always used 84, as I never understood why people went for 99.6% of hipfire
But I rarely go for 1:1 these days
Because it’s an insignificant difference @astral dagger
@frank compass i get that but why wouldn't they use 84 if they want true 1to1
ye but using 84 gives it perfect 1to1 as ads never goes past 1to1 on holo
anything past it affects acog etc
Mhmmmm
Im aware
83 became the number
That people used
Because the difference is insignificant
Like you quite literally
Cannot tell the difference
Unless your sens is super low
Did anyone ever do the 1:1 taking in account the 10% difference in fov?
Like a monitor match/degree match conversion instead of just cm/360
I've never heard of anyone using, or stating to use that and I've definitely never seen anyone do the math but if you guys know someone I'd like to see
What happened was someone did the math
Because some people found that 0.016667 w 100 in game was exact 1:1
So some people def did the math
And then some pros started using 83
And now everyone uses 83
GG @frank compass, you just advanced to level 28 !
The problem is, finding the original (or at least one of the original) reddit threads that did the math
Would be very difficult now
Cause we’re 5 years past
xp farming in sparky?
level 28 huh

the firstclip
its actually
si fucking hilarious
that this shit exists
what
@astral dagger generally most people in games when dealing with FOV difference instead of matching cm/360 try to match monitor distance, as its supposedly more like for like in 'feel'
But depending on how much distance your trying to match IE close to centre, or edges of the screen you tend to have different values
I imagine for holo its negligible in comparison to 1:1 cm/360 seeing its only a 10% zoom
monitor distance as in?
like the same distance on the monitor?
for diffrent fovs like acog and holo etc?
I'm not educated enough about it as I wish, but the general concept is that your mouse movement moves the same amount of pixels if you are scoped or not
i heard about this before sounds way to complicated
