TOOTH

hiii

When is you going to stream again?

[simple oyster]

But I know lots of company went bankrupt because they stole stock got busted and did not pay.

[runic shale]

Hiii

[runic shale]

Famiily currently over, after that should be!

[sturdy heart]

okay good good

I need to disable other creators notifications so I can only get yours

[runic shale]

You don't nee to do that, though that's very kind

[sturdy heart]

i really don't like other people's twitch notification

i only watch you and a few other creators

the potatos smell good

think that's what it is

can't really smell since the wall is in the way

[rose barn]

This is the reason I believe the entirety of Game Pass and cloud gaming shall and should be terminated when MS taking too much on AI at the huge expense of Xbox, a perfect storm for Apple’s chance to fully acquire them, and revive and revitalize the franchises and gamer voice to be heard, and creative talent revitalized, in the way Apple TV Plus service did on The Morning Show, MLB broadcasting, and F1 movie, all Apple Originals. Thoughts?

[sturdy heart]

I agree with you on the Gamepass

[sturdy heart]

I refunded a game since I bought it as a package deal (GTA 5 story mode and GTA 5 Online) was like 10$ for both in the package, couldn't play GTA online so I refunded GTA online

I had to have Gamepass to play a game I bought without Gamepass

[rose barn]

All those reasons and chances for Apple’s preparation to fully acquire Xbox would be only bigger over time. I would rather see the team behind Craig Federighi and Apple TV Plus and Apple Music to takeover Apple’s gaming ambition, more a long term investment than short term one as many studios follow. Just like Apple Intelligence’s take, never be the first to do so but to become absolute best in the given field. Thoughts?

A big factor behind this reasoning is Vision Pro, Liquid Glass, spatial computing.

[simple oyster]

Apple could not afford xbox that funny. No million dollar company buying a billion dollar company.

Microsoft did not even have enough they limit the company once they get so big they allow competition new companies. That how we got android laptop now.

Also game studio big reason why we have so many.

Next android desktop setups

[half verge]

Android is an OS

did you mean snapdragon?

like Qualcomm chips?

[rose barn]

I mean a trillion dollar buying a struggling business, would it be bigger? Because Apple is $3 trillion corpo. Xbox is like minuscule scale

[half verge]

I wouldn't really call Xbox struggling

plagued by bad decisions from incompetent managers, yes, but not struggling

would Xbox still hold onto their studios, or would apple aquire those too? because that would significantly drive up the price

considering that Microsoft owns Activision and Bethesda

both of which consistently have crazy sales whenever they drop something

I don't see Microsoft selling Xbox/Microsoft gaming for a reasonable price

[rose barn]

But maybe more profitable, this time, in both hardware and software sales, the way only Apple can manage. Check Apple Explained videos on YT. Remember when Lip-bu Tan took over Intel with a sweeping reform including the requisite of gross profit margin to be 50% and above? Such incompetence shall never be tolerated and one of my past reform proposals included most competent ones: such as Jade Raymond, David Zaslav. If Apple reviewed this and combined with what James Ryan said great games selling consoles, then Activision and Bethesda would be better divested to elsewhere, like Amazon MGM Studios, given Fallout TV show been a huge success on Amazon Prime Video? So all shall focus on original first party ones prior to Activision and Bethesda acquisitions. Thoughts?

All is also Apple’s long term plan, to grow gaming within Apple ecosystem, a big change with GPTK3 with Metal 4 API

I would rather like @sturdy heart to explain my reasoning why Bethesda and Activision shall be divested, and solely focusing on Halo, Forza, Gears, Hellblade, and restart all cancelled games developments.

[sturdy heart]

im bad at explaining 😭💔

[rose barn]

My reasoning becomes simple: even with Activision and Bethesda games selling crazy, Xbox still struggling due to combination of incompetence in leadership, and weak original first party ones. If Apple reviews this with Jim Ryan, the retired PlayStation boss, then Apple’s acquisition preparations shall involve divestment and sale of both Bethesda and Activision to a third party, like Amazon MGM Studios, part of Amazon group, due to Fallout TV show.

[half verge]

console hardware isn't really profitable

iirc Xbox and Sony both still take losses on every sale

they make their money back with software and subscriptions

without exclusives, there's not much of a reason to buy shit on apple hardware

halo stuff people still get excited for, even if infinite is kind of ass

I forgot about gears of war, I don't think anybody cares about that ip anymore

game pass is where Xbox is making money right now

game pass + Xbox live

Amazon acquiring Bethesda would actually probably be pretty good

[rose barn]

Apple is a different story when they become $3T corpo: profitability first priority, full vendor lock in. Quality over quantity naturally leads to increased pricing. Being profitable in both hardware sales and service offer. They are master of subscription service with recurring payments, further extending vendor lock in. I remember Apple Music being 75% profit, iPads and Apple Watches become cash cow with huge profit margin as well. Jim Ryan said Game Pass model is financially unsustainable due to game development cost.

[half verge]

isn't Microsoft also worth nearly $3t

apple and Microsoft are pretty much the same size

[rose barn]

But both NV and Apple grow way faster?

[sturdy heart]

right.

[half verge]

Nvidia is up because of both the crypto and AI boom, if that's what you meant by nv

and obviously Nvidia sells GPUs at a massive profit

that's different to consoles

[rose barn]

Remember when iPhone became the one with most hardware sales revenue four years after first generation?

[half verge]

apparently Microsoft actually has a larger market cap than apple

anyway

[sturdy heart]

Doesn't Xbox use Nvidia GPU chips?

[half verge]

right, we're not in an era with no competition anymore though

[half verge]

no, they use AMD, like PlayStation

both Xbox and PlayStation use rdna2 graphics (AMD) and zen 2 processors (AMD)

[sturdy heart]

oh. I tore into a Xbox 360 and it said Nvidia chip

[half verge]

right, that's a 360

they also used an IBM CPU I think

times have changed

[sturdy heart]

we were talking about newer gen Xboxes weren't we

[half verge]

Xbox One and PS4 also both used AMD

[half verge]

yes

360 is quite old now

[sturdy heart]

oh. I was talking about the older gems 😅 whoops my bad

[rose barn]

Yet those architecture are semi-custom, not full in-house. Apple is different story, fully in-house architecture based on ARM instruction set license. If there is full in-house hardware, and games to serve such architecture, the vendor lock-in effect would be bigger?

[sturdy heart]

I can still play my OG Xbox game on the 360 though

[half verge]

Nvidia is still used in the Nintendo switch, but that's a different case. Nintendo's exclusives easily sell their consoles.

[half verge]

the architectures are both completely AMD, the boards are designed in house by their respective companies (Microsoft and Sony). the chips are designed completely by AMD, it's the same architecture as their 6000 series GPUs and 3000 series Ryzen CPUs. both consoles have a GPU configuration that is in between a rx 6700 and 6700xt, while performing closer to a 6650xt/RTX 2070 due to thermal limitations and the memory configuration. the CPUs in both are essentially a kneecapped Ryzen 3700x.

and again, apple has extra work to do since they'd be making games for their arm chips, not x86 like AMD chips

arm gaming still isn't perfect

apple gaming is basically non-existent

the x86 license is still held by Intel, the only two companies that can make x86 CPUs are Intel and AMD

Apple's being full in house ARM architecture is a disadvantage here, not an advantage

Apple has the performance, not the software support

anyway, I don't see people buying a $900 apple console when they can build a PC for that price

which is why consoles need to be good value

the point is getting people in the door

[rose barn]

Not a disadvantage actually. What I meant of full in-house is architecture-hardware-software coherence and fusion. Remember when Androids go benchmarking crazy at the expense of user experience?

[half verge]

to buy your software

[rose barn]

You forgot Game Porting Toolkit 3 announced at WWDC25?

[half verge]

no, I don't remember that, I've never cared at all about phone benchmarks. it's a phone. I need it to watch YouTube, take pictures, and answer calls.

anyway, no, it wouldn't be advantage.

[rose barn]

You also forgot WWDC 2020 announcement: transition of Mac chips to Apple in house silicon, M1?

[simple oyster]

Lots agree they want phone just for calls.

[rose barn]

Remember smartphones getting more powerful over the years?

@sturdy heart actually I mean full in house architecture has advantages in terms of software optimization?

[half verge]

yes and no

it's more work on Apple's side is the problem

[simple oyster]

Smartphone reach limits might see more device that use wifi or Bluetooth to connect. To phone if needed

[half verge]

it's a disadvantage because it requires more work on Apple's side

I want apple to compete in the gaming space, but I think even they understand that it's a saturated market now

[rose barn]

Things changed when Game Porting Toolkit 2 and 3 announced for Metal 3 and 4 API. You forgot how they work?

[half verge]

I'm still not all that sure how they work, I can't forget what I barely learned

to me it sounded like apple bit the bullet and put in some work so that devs don't have to go through hell to get their games supported on apple hardware

[rose barn]

Ports of Cyberpunk 2077 ultimate, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Resident Evil, Warcraft, Control Ultimate, now only on M1 and later Macs. Better check full WWDC keynotes?

[half verge]

apple needs games worth playing, I think their best bet would be to release a couple games first to get people interested in them as a studio and then look at doing hardware

[half verge]

I am aware that cyberpunk is on apple now, yea

warcraft has had arm support for a long while

[rose barn]

They acquired an indie studio. They need bigger, thus my reasoning to acquire Xbox IPs

[rose barn]

But best optimized on Apple silicon due to its dominance in mobile gaming revenue

[fathom elk]

Train

[rose barn]

Remember Android fragmentation?

[half verge]

Xbox's reasoning for acquiring Bethesda, activision, and a billion indie studios is that they didn't have enough ip

I think apple snapping up some studios would be in their best interest

[half verge]

doesn't Android sell way more for mobile gaming? iirc android has dominance in countries where mobile gaming is most popular

mostly due to high performance Android phones costing less than apple ones

anyway, I really do believe that apple can compete if they get some good games out

again, switch sells like hot cakes because of Nintendo's games. the consoles kinda suck, especially for the price.

but the exclusives are why people care

nobody is gonna buy the $900 apple console to play 4 apple exclusive indies

[rose barn]

But many other competition third party ones started shrinking IPs to laser focus, thus best to divest Bethesda and Activision to Amazon MGM so that what Xbox left to be original exclusives like Halo, Forza, Gears of War, Hellblade, Banjo, Flight Simulator, and better revive Perfect Dark, and need new one: Deus Ex. Those shall be enough to be acquired by Apple, only timing is question.

[half verge]

gears of war is a dead ip honestly. halo still has a reputation, but their last game bombed. Forza still sells pretty good. but I really don't think that's enough to convince people to buy an apple console

maybe a deus ex game

the deus ex games are pretty underrated

[rose barn]

But the problem on Android side is sustained performance and efficiency, where Apple excels. Also a big factor to be taken account for is: App Store and dev commitment and optimization. Due to closed ecosystem nature, easier to optimize in a single chip option

[half verge]

I'd love to see a new one, especially with path tracing and shit

[rose barn]

I mean for exclusives, less is more, quality over quantity, naturally driving up hardware and software pricing

[half verge]

hardware pricing will remain stagnant regardless of what's on it

software is your cash cow for consoles

take that loss on the hardware and make it back off of game sales, platform commissions, etc

honestly I do see apple having a good potential ecosystem

if they can integrate apple TV, music, and a game subscription all into one service I see them selling a crazy amount of subscriptions

although that would be less overall revenue due to not splitting the services

but that could be a good selling point. apple TV + our games all in one subscription!

[rose barn]

Apple’s cash cow: both hardware sales and software service subscription recurring payments. Prerequisite: terminate Game Pass and Cloud Gaming in favor of full pricing only on App Store

[half verge]

apple is known for being overpriced, IT WILL NOT WORK FOR CONSOLES.

their MacBooks are best in class

for thin and lites

but otherwise their shit isn't worth the money

[rose barn]

But necessary. Reasonable overpricing for the sake of profitability and ecosystem lock-in coherence. Remember their environmental sustainability goal by 2030?

[half verge]

I'm telling you it won't work. no gamer would abandon the ecosystem they already paid into for a console that's the same price as a PC where they have to buy all of their games again

their hardware NEEDS to be reasonably priced if they want people to switch

also how does this support environmental sustainability

apple is one of the worst for that considering they have updates to slow down old phones because they want people to upgrade

[rose barn]

@sturdy heart Actually I mean a perfect trifecta in revenue would be: both hardware sales, software sales, and service recurring payments, be profitable and good gross profit margin. This is how economics in ideal conditions.

[half verge]

they cannot depend on hardware sales from a console

it just won't sell

they're gonna have to take a loss on the hardware

Xbox and Microsoft both have to do it

[sturdy heart]

I think Xbox should abandon Xbox Game Pass and leave PC Game Pass, Let Xbox Gamers have the game they paid for

[half verge]

Nintendo is pretty tight fisted, I think they about break even, but again their exclusives are what sell their consoles

[half verge]

Xbox game pass is where all of the game pass money is

[sturdy heart]

let them return stuff they don't need (dlcs that were bought)

[rose barn]

No. I mean otherwise. iPhone has been good longevity in product lifespan. I typically change them just once every 4-5 years. This is unlike Android, in environmental sustainability, and second hand sales?

[half verge]

barely anyone uses PC game pass

[sturdy heart]

make Xbox Gamepass free.

[half verge]

I use my android phones until they can't do what I want anymore...

[sturdy heart]

literally just make it free. its already on discs

[half verge]

then they'd be straight up losing money

[sturdy heart]

I can bet you every game on Gamepass is in disc version

[sturdy heart]

I don't think they really care

[half verge]

yes

of course

you can still buy games

straight up

the idea is that game pass is a better deal

you can pay for a month, beat that game, and that's it

that's the value proposition

[sturdy heart]

so why need a paid digital game when they are on Gamepass

[half verge]

you pay for a huge library. you don't own anything, but if you're playing a lot of games, it's supposed to be cheaper.

[half verge]

that's kind of the value proposition of game pass lol

also, the discs are the same thing, you're paying for a download key

the discs don't contain the games anymore

game development makes game pass risky, but it's working

a majority of Xbox gamers have game pass

[rose barn]

The way App Store on Apple still makes money due to one-time buyout. I mean even not many units sold, Apple still make profitable on hardware sales. This is why I explained perfect trifecta in profitability of hardware sales, software sales, and service recurring subscriptions. It can work, in economics, based on my scholarly expertise.

[rose barn]

So does PS Plus on PlayStation side

[half verge]

ps plus is a significantly worse value proposition

ps plus is because you need it for online play

[sturdy heart]

it just pisses me off that its just like that

[rose barn]

But remember things changed when PS Now becomes PS Plus Premium?

[half verge]

PlayStation sells because of their exclusives

[sturdy heart]

they are already greedy enough by producing disc versions

[half verge]

I don't, I stopped using PlayStation after I built a PC

[half verge]

wdym? they only do discs because people want them

[rose barn]

I still use them due to exclusives, and fear of Game Pass collapse

[half verge]

it would be on their best interest to go digital only

[rose barn]

Remember the term Ponzi’s scheme?

[half verge]

PlayStation exclusives are wayyyy better than Xbox ones, yeah

spider man, god of war, helldivers, horizon, gran Turismo

etc

Sony makes awesome games

[half verge]

game pass isn't a ponzi scheme if they can report legitimate profits

game pass is actually making money

[rose barn]

@sturdy heart all my reasoning and heated argument makes me think: full exclusivity is the reason of my ideas for Apple to acquire Xbox IPs while divesting Bethesda and Activision, is to terminate Game Pass and Cloud Gaming altogether in favor of App Store exclusivity on Mac and Vision Pro. iOS 26 and Liquid Glass be preview of spatial computing and gaming in all forms.

[rose barn]

But you cannot have infinite number of subscriber growth, as explained in Ponzi’s scheme diagram.

[half verge]

vr games still don't sell well, and vision pro sold like shit

[half verge]

well obviously, yes, you cannot have infinite subscriber growth

[rose barn]

Remember the difference between AR, VR, and MR? Maybe mixed reality is the way Apple chose based on corpo philosophy? B2B MR work well?

[half verge]

mixed reality isn't a good concept for games

Neko atsume makes it work

but that's the only game I can think of

there's some cool stuff you can do with it ig, but nobody really bought the vision pro

mostly because it's so fucking expensive for no reason

[cobalt spire]

Any news in a new ARGB controller for internal components?

[final sundial]

How do I get the activation code for 7.1 software i have buy a headset?

[hollow oracle]

uh no

💀

viper mini is literally known for being a very good shape for claw

[upbeat gorge]

This guy stans for V3P shape lol.

Idk.

[hollow oracle]

i mean it isnt a bad shape for what it is

it's better than gpx

[upbeat gorge]

GPX is still a bad shape anyway.

Or at least that's me.

[half verge]

according to people who use claw grip

fym according to who

[upbeat gorge]

Viper Mini is good.

So good, they killed it off.

There was once time a lot of tryhard aim trainers used the Mini lmao.

[proud olive]

Hey, I'm from the UK and thinking of getting the Blade 16 (64GB 5090). Are the issues fixed with the Blade 16 (trackpad issues, etc)?

[half verge]

what are you on about bro 😭

also if you have big hands, don't use a small mouse?

it isn't rocket surgery

there are objective things about mice, but comfort is a subjective factor

obviously that changes depending on your body

I don't like super small mice either, I got big ass hands

IN GENERAL, viper mini is recognized as a mouse that's good for claw grip

review

wow look it's pretty good for claw for people with medium to average sized hands

average male hand size is 19cm

average woman hand size is 17cm

[pseudo sparrow]

I'm using it in claw grip

agressive claw

No

I change of grip depending on my feeling because I do a lot of kovaak and aim training

Or in general I have same grip than tenz and primmie

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOP4P0jerw8 same grip 90% of time

I think i'll switch on viper v3 pro soon, last sometime i'm inconsistent with my vmse with my current grip

like horizontal line is bruh, I need to put the mouse to the left and use my shoulder I don't have this issue when I tried the v3 pro recently

[simple oyster]

Made for children lots have said that. They like bigger size

[pseudo sparrow]

WHAT THE FUCK

Razer should to do a equal to vmse but with med size

Like, not as viper v3 pro, but between mini and v3 pro idk

Like a viper for claw

[covert drift]

Hi there everyone

[half verge]

hola

[zinc iron]

I like razer for design, but QC is noteve ven remotl\y close there even tho here for exanple ny latest mouse i used for 2 years,

[covert drift]

Anyone had any issues with the THX Spatial Audio Licence ?
I reinstalled Windows and when i went to use my code it said its already been redeemed.

[half verge]

well yeah, your code has already been redeemed

isn't it tied to your razer account?

anyway windows sonic is the same shit

[zinc iron]

bo but don't bother with razer, you better spend that money on Dac amp, and just get decent aux stereo headset

[covert drift]

So how can I use the LIcence I already paid for ?

any solution

[zinc iron]

should be on your acc

download it like cortex

or other bloatware

[covert drift]

I see the order but not any licence on the account, I only found the licence code on my email when I paid for it

[half verge]

idk talk to razer support

[covert drift]

I am trying to on their website but they keep taking me to different links and no direct contact support

[zinc iron]

they likely tell him to go somwhere else

see

[half verge]

if it's not tied to your account idk

[crystal owl]

Good evening

Well

It's 1am

Ehh

Good morning?

[zinc iron]

Hello there

[crystal owl]

I should get some sleep

Good night everyone

Take care

[zinc iron]

you guys aren't tired with the QC and literal, bloatware of a app that razer kind of force you to use?

[upbeat gorge]

Your aim is solid. It's just the game isn't consistent with what you shoot.

[zinc iron]

look this dude can't even activate his license @long hedge? hello

[upbeat gorge]

Afterall, Val is a movement and positioning game. Not a true indication for good aiming.

You can try to get the V3P, but I really doubt that would change anything.

[upbeat gorge]

Lol, don't you see my name.

[zinc iron]

[half verge]

I don't think anyone likes razer software

[zinc iron]

it was fast for sure

[half verge]

I literally joined here to ask if you could turn off the EQ that razer 7.1 applies without telling you

the answer is no btw

which is dumb as hell

[zinc iron]

i hate so much synapse 4 i currently terminated, or i would iif bthey didn't terminate itself lmao

[half verge]

because the EQ just scoops mids and boosts bass like crazy, it sounds awful

now I use equalizer apo

which also has built in 7.1 emulation if I want it

but my current headphones have really good imaging, so I don't need it anymore

[upbeat gorge]

Wtf are you deathgripping your mouse? 😭 😭 😭

[zinc iron]

Note

[half verge]

what the hell 😭

[zinc iron]

They wew thin as paper

On sides

Defective from begining

[half verge]

ain't no way

[upbeat gorge]

I mean.

[half verge]

I think you're death gripping that shit dawg

intentionally or not

[upbeat gorge]

If that's how you grip, might as well just get a magnesium composite mouse.

[half verge]

still, that shouldn't happen

[zinc iron]

I have more og these i disasebled some of them

[half verge]

honestly get a magnesium composite mouse

good luck crunching in metal

[zinc iron]

And they are molded so bad

[half verge]

what's the one

[zinc iron]

Like chinese dollar toys

[half verge]

attack shark 2?

I think

[upbeat gorge]

Pwnage Storm breaker.

[half verge]

$170

oof

actually I've seen way worse prices

for what you get it's probably a fair price

[upbeat gorge]

Or, for the latest meta.
Pwnage Trinity.

Viper Shape.

[pseudo sparrow]

Y fr

When i play on vmse on cs I never get issue with my aim 82% hs

In valorant I'm around 33% 45%

this shit game

[grand perch]

I do buy them. that's why I don't like game pass. I buy steam games

[zinc iron]

@upbeat gorge @half verge check these Out xd i mean i like to hold tigh my mice. Play cs go a lot and in general your AIM have. to be perfect and you. Have grip your Mouse tightly to use your DPI and Pooling ratę. Funny would be to see you guys actualy trying to play with 23k dpi Setting xd i say you do same cause one slight Flick and you just made five rotations other than these i had first kraken headseat i really liked i actually used them lfor 5 yrs minimum untill they just crumbled on their own. Shoulndt left them on a sunny desk tho but I hvae not encounter tjis issue with other shit i⁴ destroyed, oh and Blacwidow! This keyboard is a champ either v1 of v2 chroma she is good the firefly Matt is actual garbage with slapped RGB i bought hard verion, and it get slick after 2 days and destroyed my lancheaf te i was a fanboy,for a razer since design but when I torn of synapse in task manager and wherever i can. And it launches itself without question eating your ram and cpu for Quick snacki t became too much for me i would rather bought asus gladius 3 for 50 eur and right out of the box i quality of build is much better then what im used too. and they gabe you free swotches with tool to fix it! I Wonder if razer have even remotly close device for the price and features

[half verge]

I think you just destroy your mice bro, I've never had one break on me like that

then again I don't use mouse as much as I use controller

[dark rune]

250 hours lasted longer than I expected

[dark rune]

Pole spotted

[spark sky]

Looks like you need to loosen up a bit, play some games that don't cause you to be so tense

[dark rune]

aaaaand the new battery is in

[sturdy heart]

holy yappatron

[grand perch]

hello Mr Ford Focus how're you today

[sturdy heart]

good, what about you? Neil

[grand perch]

I was sick all last week in my Canada trip but hopefully will be better for concert Monday night

[sturdy heart]

Awh! I'm heading home to Florida rb

[zinc iron]

Cant make this shit up, the hole i marked yellow! It was there from start i could feel it! Was not cracked obviosly, liked it at first i cuse my fingers get in there and that extra grip gave me better AIM,I could handle it better! But after the rubber on sides dicided to go somhere else it started cracking not know claw grip not help in here but stoll the sides are this as paper and deformed and this Mouse was top tier of its time first 8k pooling ratę with advanced sensor it is what it is never met this actual defromtion befere on any pc component i have used

[sturdy heart]

6 hours and 54 minutes left till im home

[grand perch]

where have you been travelling?

[sturdy heart]

went from Florida to Vermont

and then

Vermont to New york

and now new York to Florida

[upbeat gorge]

Because movement effects your aim in cs and val.

So most of the time you'd be better to position than trying to face to face your opps.

See how you can easily tap 3 ppl when their dumbass peak in without looking but immediately lose to someone who appeared from behind?

That's called positioning.

Good aiming is just a bonus. I'd dare say you can go really far by just using crosshair placements and some logical thinking.

Doesn't have to be TenZ level of aiming.

[hollow oracle]

Yeah I suck at valo and I’m amazing at cs

Duality of man

[upbeat gorge]

I don't want my aim affected by movement so I play OW and Rivals.

This was during my prime:

Can I consistently do it?
Hell yea.

Used DA V3 Pro with those btw.
Still one of my fav mouses.

[hollow oracle]

Fair

[upbeat gorge]

@sturdy heart not the vid I deleted but this one should be 80% of what I did.

[sturdy heart]

time to train on valorant

[upbeat gorge]

[grave ember]

Progress update: about a third of the way there; should be done by Monday night; maybe tomorrow night if I'm lucky.

[fathom elk]

I'm going to new York in 2027

[vital meteor]

New York is awesome

[spark sky]

Indeed

[sturdy heart]

I'll meet you there 😂

joking

[grand perch]

I wanna go to nycc

[spark sky]

When you do, go to 125th street in Harlem, and The Apollo theatre

[vital meteor]

I recommend the edge at 30 Hudson yards it’s the tallest outdoor observation deck in the hemisphere

Good views there

It’s like suspended in the air too

Like this

[timid jolt]

[vital meteor]

O

[timid jolt]

😱

[timid jolt]

I wish I had those views.

[vital meteor]

The Fox?

lol yea NYC is beautiful

[grand perch]

whoa some good recommendations thank you hopefully I remember

[buoyant sand]

the edge is the one thing i missed kinda sadge

[buoyant sand]

i went in october for the first time. most are probably obvious, but my recs:

• one world trade + observatory + memorial
• rockefeller center
• back to the future broadway show at the winter garden
• hot honey pepperoni pizza at nino's (in manhattan)
• madam tusseads wax museum
• the high line
• the museum of modern art
• apple fifth avenue
• intrepid air museum (concorde <3)
• rub the bull on wall street (must do very important)

[slender karma]

hi tryna look for the best huntsman v3 pro settings

[barren oar]

Howdy guy, quick question if someone doesn't mind helping? I can't seem to find the auto adjust setting for my mic in synapses. I would like to turn it off

[clever olive]

When you go to NY visit the NY Razer Store. Its instead Roosevelt Field Mall on long island like 30 ish minutes outside the city. Its pretty sick went there recently w/ a friend.

[simple oyster]

Stuck waiting around

[grand perch]

yesss razer store is my first visit. and I'd also like to visit set of friends and Seinfeld

[fathom elk]

I love this thing

Does anyone else get random people from this server that'll add you and try to promote a business that will promote your channel and stuff? I have and its super annoying.

[vital meteor]

Probably a good idea to just disable DMs

[deep herald]

Well theres people from real life I message using DMs so I dont want to disable them.

[vital meteor]

I mean like from random unadded people in the server

[deep herald]

Oh I gotcha. Lol

Hey guys, anyone bought razor blade 18 2025

I wanted to ask some quick questions

[static holly]

why is dongle connection to the razer black shark hyperspeed a constant issue for me? i sent one back already, and now my new one is doing it too. the dongle isn't showing green anymore

[sly pelican]

I need help. I bought the Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed, and it worked fine at first. However, after updating the firmware in the Razer Audio app, an error message appears, and the right earbud no longer works. Does anyone know how to fix this?

[sturdy heart]

I don't 💔

I reply to you almost 24/7

[timid jolt]

hai

[timid jolt]

I don't think so.

[timid jolt]

Hmm, try reaching Razer Support.

[timid jolt]

Try a firmware update on a PC.

[hollow oracle]

can i contact razer support to buy more grips and mouse skates?

[timid jolt]

Or reinstall Razer Audio.

[hollow oracle]

or nah?

[timid jolt]

In their help page, but if your product stills on warranty, I think you can get a full new replacement for it.

next task up: learn how to play on high sens

[hollow oracle]

no its literally impossible

i play on glasspads and its way more controllable than this

😭

wtf is this

[sturdy heart]

nuh uh

u can't really say its impossible

nothing is impossible

everything is possible if u try hard enough

[upbeat gorge]

That is a good thing.

You just need to give it some time.

You will eventually adjust to it.

[sturdy heart]

get used to glass skates

[hollow oracle]

xd

[upbeat gorge]

I play on glass skates with 4000 edpi lol.

It feels like @hollow oracle first hand but I got used to it already.

[hollow oracle]

i play on low sens

with glasspad

same with glass skates

[sturdy heart]

I used to play on my dads mouse that had glass skates at 1500 DPI

was very hard at first

[upbeat gorge]

Get the sens higher.

You'd want it nearly the same as how you move it.

[hollow oracle]

wdym

[upbeat gorge]

I meant the speed.

[hollow oracle]

wdym the same as how you move it

[sturdy heart]

He meant DPI

[sturdy heart]

might need to say DPI 😅

[upbeat gorge]

It's not really dpi.

It's the edpi where it matches the speed of your movement.

[hollow oracle]

what does matching speed of movement even mean lmao

[hollow oracle]

i think u mean cm/360

[sturdy heart]

okay nerd.

[upbeat gorge]

Like, symmetrical to your hand movement.

[sturdy heart]

kidding

[upbeat gorge]

If you do low sens, obv you need to move more to change the angles.

Now try to match it with your hand movements.

For me I do 4000 edpi after 2-3 months looking for it.

[hollow oracle]

yeah thats low sens

also edpi means nothing it just depends on the game ur playing

[upbeat gorge]

Yes.

[hollow oracle]

whats ur cm/360

[upbeat gorge]

How do I measure it.

[hollow oracle]

look up sens converter from aimlabs

it tells u the cm/360

[upbeat gorge]

Oh that depends on game.

[hollow oracle]

it doesnt

[upbeat gorge]

Idk how to explain it but I try to match the crosshair speed to my movement.

[hollow oracle]

cm/360 is the same everywhere

edpi is the one that depends on the game

[upbeat gorge]

Well shit this is a bit too technical for me.

[upbeat gorge]

I think this is close to how I play?

So I do edpi 4000 and 1.0 sens

[hollow oracle]

34.5 isnt that fast

tbh

[upbeat gorge]

Bc I tried to match it with my movement.

That's my sweetpot tho.

[hollow oracle]

i see

i use 5 sens with 800 dpi

wait

we use the same exact overwatch sens

LMAO

[upbeat gorge]

Hello 👋

[rose barn]

@grand perch I remember Apple Arcade gaming service, it made Apple realize the importance of full exclusivity to a given hardware ecosystem. Unlike Apple Music, those games only available on Apple devices. I mean Apple is not the inventor of first smartphones, nor first tablet, first mixed reality headset, none of them are first, but when released their own take in own way, as tech advanced and matured to a point Apple can accept within its internal quality standards, become profitable anyway. Thoughts?

The term I used is: late coming advantage

[lyric sinew]

Please is there anyone where who can help me out ?

The card is still with me and the receipt as well

[buoyant sand]

Looks fairly straight forward to me

Back to the store you go

[hollow oracle]

You received exactly what u ordered wdym?

[astral barn]

It's the 8K PC but that I can't find anything about. The other Wolverine v3 Tournament Editions don't have that on the box.
Plus they all have the Xbox logo, this one doesn't.

[hollow oracle]

Oh wait wtf

Contact amazon support 😭 wth

[astral barn]

It all looks genuine so I'm confused.
Wondered if it's a new model/product and I just can't find it.

[buoyant sand]

Amazon make another oopsie?

[fathom elk]

They have been making a lot of oopsie lol.

uhh the mouse is still flashing red on the razer logo

i dont think it charged

at alll

[grand perch]

how much have you eaten to celebrate today?

[upbeat gorge]

Until there's one with the issue, nobody can really tell lol.

The issue with Razer is that the battery will go bad at one time, expands and disconnect the cable that connects the trackpad.

And from the look, I highly doubt if they changed the design of the laptop.

It’s probably built into the headset if it has surround sound

It's been a big case of trial and error. Should be done by tomorrow morning, though.

This thing had been nothing but a price of shit recently

Also won’t charge or stay charged

[dusty wolf]

Hello guys, i want to upgrade my headset, but i dont know what to buy. Now i have hyperx clouds 2 that i bhought 4 years ago, they work very good since then, but im scared they will stop working soon, so when they brake i will know which ones to buy. I like wired headsets more. Please tag me on the answer

[rose crane]

Do not buy the barracuda x it’s the biggest peice of shit ever

I have no compliments for it

[grave ember]

I'd recommend at least the Kraken Kitty V2 BT.

I use 'em, and I love 'em.

Not sure what the equivalent mainstream Kraken model is...

if it exists...

But it's a recommendation I'd make.

...ok, did some reading; it's a modified V3 X.

I'd go with that.

Or, at least, anything from the Kraken V3 range in generall including the Kraken Kitty V2 series

[rose barn]

@sturdy heart I can explain why Apple still have chance to rethink gaming and console business shall and should be: later coming advantage, just as iPhone not first smartphone but made positive profit and revenue anyway. What I know is Apple Arcade demoed importance of game exclusivity (permanent) to a given hardware ecosystem. Metal 4, GPTK3, Apple Game app, App Store, game ports, indie studio just beginning. A vision to high end gaming console device would be: long lasting max stunning graphics while on the go without too much battery life compromise. Thus I mentioned reason to acquire entirety of Xbox IPs prior to Bethesda and Activision acquisitions. Sole purpose: to grow Apple Original first party lineup, terminate Game Pass in favor of App Store exclusive distribution. Thoughts? Vision Pro and iPad Pro would be sort of X-factor?

[wheat eagle]

That is not going to happen Apple doesn’t focus on gaming even though their products are getting better but it wouldn’t replace both Windows and Linux gaming

[torpid flax]

Hi all, I have a problem with my Razer Kraken V3x activating the 7.1 surround when choosing it in Windows, it doesn't play audio.

Does anyone have any idea how this could be fixed?

[peak marsh]

mm apple

idk repair it

[rose barn]

Impossible. See WWDC25, Metal 4, Game Porting Toolkit 3, latest game porting cases

[rose barn]

My sense is that Apple never first one to invent, but end up profitable in both hardware sale revenue.

[peak marsh]

ye

[upbeat gorge]

You really have a strong belief in Apple, even when Apple themselves don't believe in their gaming.

[half verge]

you keep saying this, but what you're not getting is that apple was still relatively early to smartphones and music players

what else was on the market when iPhone released?

what, the HTC Touch?

how about music players?

consoles and handheld gaming devices are already very well developed and elegant

fuckin

steam deck, switch, switch 2, Asus ally, MSI claw, Lenovo legion go

a ton of models from smaller brands

Xbox and Sony rule the console market, it's not even close

apple loses among gamers even for their desktops because you can't fucking upgrade

you can't even slap a GPU in their latest Mac desktop last I checked (hope they changed that)

yes, apple is full of brilliant engineers and has the capital to fund new releases, projects, and products

they aren't magicians though

nobody will buy their shit if it's not worth caring about in the first place

apple vision pro flopped for that reason

they don't need to be the first, but they need to do it very very well to justify the price that I know they're gonna charge

[rose barn]

Nokia, BlackBerry

[half verge]

exactly

how does that stand up to a smartphone?

no, apple wasn't the first to do capacitive touchscreen

they did it relatively early though, and they did it right

it was elegant and better than what competitors were offering

[rose barn]

Redefined the way to interact: multi-touch with vanishing keyboard. Also full desktop-class website rather than WAP

PWA, the progressive web apps on HTML5

[half verge]

this is what I'm saying though, apple was pretty early to smartphones

they gave us a lot of innovation

they aren't early to handhelds

they're very late to gaming

[rose barn]

Remember late comer advantage term?

People never expect why Apple take too long before their own take in a field

[half verge]

okay. let's look at the steam deck. what does it do right?

OLED version has a beautiful screen
reasonable battery life
reasonable performance at reasonable settings
it stays at a comfortable temperature
the storage is upgradable
they sell replacement parts and encourage users to fix their own devices

best of all? it's not prohibitively expensive

on top of that, it doesn't force people to rebuy games, it's already just a PC. you can just use steam. it literally comes with steam OS. also, you can use it as a normal PC. valve encourages it.

people don't want to rebuy games.

if you're making them jump platforms, it needs to be worth it.

[upbeat gorge]

Imagine Apple consoles.
$1999.

[half verge]

it's pretty common in PC beginner communities to hear that a big reason they didn't want to make the jump to PC is because they didn't want to abandon their PlayStation or Xbox libraries

[upbeat gorge]

Steam Deck $600.

[half verge]

probably honestly lol

I'm not saying apple gaming can't work, but you're coming at it from an angle where it's just not gonna succeed

I'm not gonna buy a fuckin apple slab for $1399.99 to play their new exclusive no matter how good people say it is

[upbeat gorge]

It will funnily be the case of Quest vs Vision Pro.
Vision Pro is technically better in every way, but the Quest wins because it's more accessible and does 99% of what the Vision Pro does.

[rose barn]

@grand perch I need help on explaining and defending my view of latecomer’s advantage in the way how Apple makes money despite not first to invent hardware. Thoughts?

[half verge]

apple isn't magic. we already can guarantee that it's not gonna be affordable, repairable, and most likely not upgradeable. that's already marks against it.

[half verge]

latecomers advantage for tech works if you let others make the mistakes first and then release something, not when the competition has fully saturated the market and had an empire for decades

being a latecomer is a disadvantage if there's nothing new left to bring to the table

especially if your entire existence as a company has been actively ignoring that market segment

you're right, PC handhelds were not very popular until recently, but the steam deck changed that

there's plenty of competition now

you have options with better performance, better battery life, better screens, better pricing, better peripherals

if apple wants to succeed in gaming they either need to enter slowly and actually build a reputation to make them worth giving a shit about or they really need to shake up the market

double the price for better battery life while being significantly locked down and lacking repair options ain't gonna work

also, Qualcomm is kicking ass right now with high efficiency ARM chips, I wouldn't be surprised if we see Qualcomm chips used in handhelds sometime in the next 5-6 years due to their impressive battery life. only reason that's not happening right now is limited ARM game support, but that's being improved rapidly.

i should say high performance and efficiency

[peak marsh]

wtf lol

[half verge]

I like arguing my bad

[peak marsh]

same

[upbeat gorge]

QC chips using DX12 would be an end to Metal.

[half verge]

anyway what I'm trying to say is that apple does not have any advantage right now. getting gaming working is an uphill battle, being on arm only makes it harder. making it easier for devs to add native ARM support will also help their competition, so that's a double edged sword for apple. Qualcomm is making strides in high efficiency high performance PC chips.

[grand perch]

I know I'm asking if you've eaten any yourself

[sturdy heart]

oh. Yeah a little bit

[half verge]

I think they do support dx12, just not dx12 ultimate

so yeah basically they need dx12 support lol

[upbeat gorge]

Yea, just using DX12 already makes it a widely more compatible API than Metal.

[half verge]

I don't remember which dx12 version, and I'm struggling to find info on it

I was able to confirm that it doesn't support dx12 ultimate though

[rose barn]

@grand perch I am feeling a big trouble in heated argument in regards of ARM and gaming. I need your explanation in this matter and mediate this. Thoughts?

[half verge]

I'm trying to say that apple has no advantage here

being this late to the game only hurts them

they can succeed in gaming, but not in the way you're saying

[upbeat gorge]

No hate on Apple tho. But honestly really found no possibilities that Apple would success in gaming when even themselves does not believe in that outcome.

[half verge]

they're not gonna pull a magic chip out of their asses and immediately have perfect drivers and support for games across the board. acquiring Xbox won't fix this, there's still tons of work to be done regardless of who they acquire

[rose barn]

The sole purpose of acquisition is to build game lineup

[half verge]

apple needs to actually commit hard to gaming if they want to have a chance

[half verge]

that doesn't matter if you can't actually play other games on apple silicon though

[rose barn]

Metal 4 has ray tracing? You forgot this?

[half verge]

ray tracing support does not mean that games will work.

there's still the actual issue of widespread game compatibility

which absolutely, yes, can be done

but it requires a lot of work from here on out

[upbeat gorge]

DX12 has native RT support too.

[half verge]

and serious dedication from apple

keep in mind that PS5, series X, and a lot of PCs also already support ray tracing

ray tracing isn't new

having support for features isn't the same as having games working

[upbeat gorge]

Ever since 2024 they released a few demo like BG3 and R6S running on DX12 using ARM already.
It is on the same level performance that Apple provides currently.

So pretty much it goes back to whether which one is more widely compatible.

Metal has to compete with DX12/Vulkan/OpenGL.

[buoyant sand]

[rose barn]

Check Assassin’s Creed Shadows, some FSR4 day one games to be ported to Apple silicon Mac, in WWDC announcement

You know, "some".

Because they have to go back and make the game compatible with Metal.

[grand perch]

Jimmy i will always vouch that you are a knowledgeable and entertaining advocate for Apple gaming but i am a Steam fan first and foremost

[whole iron]

NICE

[half verge]

it's a good step, it isn't magic

someone somewhere has to bleed some money to get games on Mac

I don't think devs are interested

apple worked with some devs to get a few games, like cyberpunk and assassin's Creed Shadows like you keep saying

but that's a few AAA games

what about the vast library of games already released? what about small indie devs?

the issue right now is that nobody buys games on Mac, mostly because games aren't supported on mac

the games that are supported on mac don't get enough sales on Mac to justify the extra development cost or time

mostly because gamers aren't on mac

they're on windows or console

You're talking within the Razer Discord server, you being a mod in other servers mean little in here(other than you should know how to act), please respect this Server's staff rulings/judgments(as it is a Server Rule). I'd rather not continue arguing

hallo

[pseudo sparrow]

Too late

I destroy it during a ranked today because she don’t want to stop to troll me and stopping when I used the scroll

I have 2 other unit in my other home but I’ll use v3 pro to wait and back on vmse later

Like idk, I never broke a mouse in my whole life, but my unit was like ´ U use the scroll the pointer stop to move ´ I was forced to turn off the mice and on again, and I get trashtalk in radiant lobbie it was too much

My aim before the issue

I up a acc to lvl 20 to do a new challenge lvl 20 to radiant also but when u have issue it’s impossible, idk what happen with my unit

I clean it every 2 months, take care basically my black version never get that

[upbeat gorge]

You know the V3P had some issue with the sensor too when release, no?

I think some pros complained about it, too.

So hopefully you still get the fixed batch.

[pseudo sparrow]

Yes but it’s fixed

The vmse was my main for 2y now but my white unit trolled compared to my black

And my hand is med I feel I’ll get a better feeling with v3 pro

Im using a relaxed claw like primmie

And my finger slide on the mousepad when I do it with my vmse bruh

Idc about other mouse than razer I tried everything and razer sensor stay the best

The only similar is gpx and asus harpe ace but gpx shape is shit

And asus armory crate is something that I hate tf with their components

@vague wren sorry, we don't allow sensitive topics

[peak marsh]

yes u do

[tawny goblet]

lmao its the bible verse mofo

they only lines are "off topic but jesus died for yo sins"

[hollow oracle]

💀 wtf

[pseudo sparrow]

Its ok

I'll buy a other one in next batch

And I hope this time I'll not get qc issue

It's just because I buy the white from first batch

Some ppl have get issue with the black when it was first drop

[hollow oracle]

Wish I had that much money to spend

[pseudo sparrow]

Or stay on the v3 pro

[hollow oracle]

Black units have had issues on almost all batches

Black vmse was pretty bad with QC

[pseudo sparrow]

Idk, when u peak radiant in valorant u try too much things

[hollow oracle]

White has decently better qc in comparison

[pseudo sparrow]

I changed a lot of mousepad, mouse and other shit like keyboard

[hollow oracle]

I peaked 945 rr

Idk what ur on about

[pseudo sparrow]

My aim is important for me

[hollow oracle]

I stick to what I know works

[hollow oracle]

You get better aim with practice

[pseudo sparrow]

So, just a mouse that I have a bad grip style on it

[hollow oracle]

Not by swapping peripherals

[pseudo sparrow]

I can switch

[pseudo sparrow]

Yes but my goal is vct

Not ranked only

I search what it's the best for my hand

[hollow oracle]

Good luck

[pseudo sparrow]

And I want to get a aim that get the " pro " lvl

In radiant u don't need a exceptional aim but a good game sense first

But when u want to reach the " elite "

U need to practice a lot

like demon1, primmie, tenz, scream, aspas

[hollow oracle]

I’m aware

[pseudo sparrow]

I'm doing a lot of kovaak

brh

Kovaak is the best to practice aim fastly

U work the mouse control

Better than just spam valorant ranked

U learn a low of things and how to master every sens fastly

With the vmse and v3 pro my score is good, I tried also the pulsar x2 v2 it's a good mouse

but gpx i'm shit

[hollow oracle]

Valorant barely needs mouse control tbh

So eh

[simple oyster]

Wow go for short walk and now my legs are yell at me.

[peak marsh]

jeSUS?!!?!? AMOGUS MENTONED

SUSSY JESS?!??!??!

[peak marsh]

Try league

way better skill celing and iq

[pseudo sparrow]

For high sens u need it

I'm playing 0.2 1600 dpi

Because I hate low sens in val

[pseudo sparrow]

In valorant more u play like idiot more u get reward compared to counter strike

I hope it's not the same for league of legend

[peak marsh]

it isnt lol

[tawny goblet]

valorant is dogshit

it's like the worst multiplayer game known to man

starcraft II betteeer

[hollow oracle]

What 😭

Most ppl I know use high sens on everything except val

[tawny goblet]

i've become a starcraft II master by watching my brother play

[hollow oracle]

That isnt even high sens btw

[tawny goblet]

my brother didn't learn junk from watching me play valorant

neither did I cause valorant is ass

[hollow oracle]

xd

I don’t like valo

Despite having achieved a lot in it

[tawny goblet]

i dunno how overwatch is doing right now

[hollow oracle]

Cs is better, i just wish they had 128 tick servers and no subtick

[tawny goblet]

prolly better than valorant simply due to having a better base they built upon

[hollow oracle]

Yeah better than valo

[tawny goblet]

i liked playing csgo from time ro time

only launched cs2 once though

dawg aint in me

[hollow oracle]

Csgo was peak

Best tac fps in history

But they had to ruin it

[tawny goblet]

on god

what's your opinion on rainbow six siege

[pseudo sparrow]

Valorant is $$$$

CS is skill

I sincerely think that Riot developed Valorant with their ass, and that bits of code are lying around everywhere, poorly done, and that they themselves are aware that the optimization is crap, but since the players are stupid to pay for skins, and paid for VCT bundle or ticket to watch it irl, by having idols, they take advantage of it to generate income, with the statistics of the players "connection time per day", and the rng of the vandal is intentional, just like the Turks and Russians who take advantage of the ping advantage, because they want you to lose at a time when you are in a win streak, so that you restart games, and that you continue to play with the rng of the matchmaking, and weapons

This would also explain why Riot doesn't dare reveal the source code of Valorant, so that people do a sort of Faceit, because they are ashamed of how shitty it is internally, and of the scam that it is.

If they leave the game like this, it's because the players gave it hype, and continue to spend their lives on it.

[peak marsh]

skill issue

[peak marsh]

cheats:

cs is dead like team fort move on lol

sm cheaters in there why try and learn when ppl aimbot/wall hack lol game is a joke

[hollow oracle]

Optimization is crap?

What

You cannot be real rn

[peak marsh]

most cs fans moved to val anyway

[hollow oracle]

You could say that about any hame

Game*

Valorant is one of the best optimized ones

[peak marsh]

at least val gets their shit updated unlike cs

never played cs to much cheaters lol game is boring to look at u run around like apes and do headshots like its super hot game or whatever

[pseudo sparrow]

?

Ue 5

XD

Last the update the game is broken

[peak marsh]

league is better than both of those lame games

[pseudo sparrow]

And also how ping abuse is regular in valorant

[peak marsh]

more skill

[hollow oracle]

??

I legit have 30 more fps

And no issues

😭

[peak marsh]

now run 5 games at once

[hollow oracle]

I can run 5 instances of valo at once

And roblox

But not any other game

[peak marsh]

ez

[hollow oracle]

Unless it runs on a potato

[peak marsh]

wonder if val is any diff lol

boring ass fps games

[pseudo sparrow]

reverse for me

I lose some fps when I started so I needed to uninstall completely the game

to back high fps

And remove folder in %appdata% and things like that link to valorant for a clean install

[hollow oracle]

Thats a you problem tho

[peak marsh]

lol

[opal portal]

i hate that stupid

L O W B A T T E R Y

how do i turn that off

i have a razer barracuda non x btw

[peak marsh]
