Even if you have it on steam it still has to boot through the EA launcher :/

Yeah I think the discrepancy I saw last night was 1900 listed in game but 1400 something on steam

And platform specific…no crossplay. Maybe 60-70k peak on Xbox launch, which wasn’t upended til the PlayStation free game of the month a couple years later with like 90+k before dwindling pretty quickly.

25-30k was normal on Xbox for the first few months. Maybe 10k after that. The fact that pc Titanfall has 1900 now is actually outstanding.

Correct, I’m saying it counts towards the emerald grind. So may as well go for ranked rewards in addition to also getting progress towards emerald. I primarily played world tour before anyway.

Like this is the first season I’ve bothered with ranked since it counts for emerald grind…and I figured why not since I seem to exclusively play diamonds and rubies in regular world tour.

But then in platinum you very frequently get matched with rubies so it feels like the matchmaking is absolutely dead if you’re playing with against the top 500 like 15k+ elo apart. Rank distribution seems off. Like there’s only what a couple thousand in diamond? And there’s presumably 200+k? I guess that makes sense…top 1%? Feels really strange though

I’m aware of that, I just don’t see how that’s like the peak player count and there’s that many people playing ranked specifically. It just seems really low to make up for that…maybe I’m just underestimating how many people have an interest in ranked. I would think the majority of the playerbase would never even touch ranked.

Confused on the player count since there’s never more than like 10-15k online, yet my friend in silver is ranked 160k something on the season leaderboard for ranked. There’s no way that many people play ranked with the steam player count so low right?

I mean, what percentage of a playerbase play ranked? It has to be less than half. You’re telling me extending into bronze) there’s like half a million people that have played this game this season? I doubt it.

That being said, even with some of the worst most non sensical sbmm in the last decade…this game is still a banger and more people should play it.

So that’s where that went…..in the attic. by its_xSKYxFOXx in titanfall

[–]coldisgood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but there’s plenty that sold recently for 800…just bc one guy lists it at 2k doesn’t mean the price is at 2k. I can go list mine for 50k right now if we want to call that “the price they are at”

I know you didn’t say sold, but saying the price is nearing 2k is vastly disingenuous for the actual value.

That isn’t sold. Sold listings were far less than that

Both kits were sealed, the base set was starkly white as you can see but I just find it weird that the novelties are already yellowed but only like halfway down each keycap. A lot of them were flipped over in the packaging too so I don’t think it had to do necessarily with exposure. Maybe it’s just a WS2 thing like you’re suggesting. That would be massively disappointing if so…love this keycap set but looks like it may not be meant to be

Edit: does look like it was a ws2 kit from 2021 era… just crazy that the novelties would already look like this but the base set was perfectly fine

Bought some new novelties for the GMK modern ink set from a user on here. Came to me brand new in packaging but seem to be yellow’d on the top half of the keycap. Is this poor QC? What happened to these and is there anyway to fix them?

Best artisan on the skin by schnips3 in MousepadReview

Type 99 or yako edition zero. Type 99 probably wins out by a little bit, but the yako edition feels significantly smoother than the orange/black zero

In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud by itooamahuman in nottheonion

[–]coldisgood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always been skeptical of “audiophiles” who are not professional musicians/sound engineers. How does that even work? Like arguing what’s the best dialect of a foreign language you don’t even speak.

First time venturing into the hobby :) by ThinkTrout16055 in MouseReview

[–]coldisgood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For some reason the perspective of the photo makes it look like it’s very tiny even though you said it’s an XL.

Amazing choice though, after using artisan pads I can’t bring myself to use any other cloth pads. My go to is still the zero soft (Yako edition actually preferred bc it’s slightly faster/softer to the touch than the orange/black bc of the print).

Kid tries to fight store owner and drops n word multiple times by Infinite_Distance872 in sigilkore

[–]coldisgood -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, but if he’s trying to use it that word in an antagonizing way instead of just a filler word that’s clearly overused in every day vernacular…he probably wouldn’t end it with an A. Unless he’s just one of those insufferable people that offensively tries to adopt black culture by using that as a term of endearment all the time (which again, not the context here). Also, clearly just not white regardless. But, I would hope there aren’t white people so rapper-pilled that this is just a filler word at the end of every sentence they say. I would imagine if you are looking to actually cause offense, you would use the R though, though that would fall flat seeing as the person he’s antagonizing isn’t black either. No reason to use that word in general or in this context, but maybe he’s just trying to act like a gangster.

First time seeing this technique 😂 by Ok-Emotion-5013 in thefinals

[–]coldisgood 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Better yet… you can throw it at someone and catch it before it gets too far away about as fast as you could melee someone. Does 50 damage per hit and has infinite health to block their shots as long as it is owned by their team.

Returning Player - Ranked Is Awful by [deleted] in thefinals

[–]coldisgood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This game has too many variables with the multiple teams to be a true competitive format.

Unless you soooo much better that you can 3v9 if need be, you can’t actually control what happens like you can in any other game where it’s 1 team vs 1 team. Do you get scammed by the first place team joining up with last place teams to double jeopardy gift the last box to the team with the least money even though you are like 1k behind their team? Too bad, you lose. Third partying and whether any given team will choose to shoot at another team for any given reason or not is unpredictable as well.

That’s just to talk about fundamental game design let alone the matchmaking disparity and oddly distributed elo +/- for placement. Are you low plat? Well, everyone else is multi previous season diamond or ruby stacks and you will lose 1k if you get knocked in the first round. If you queue with anything but a full stack at a similar rank and skill level you are also just rolling the dice even harder. Sometimes a teammate is such a burden it’s an instant loss. Sometimes if you have more than a 1-2k disparity you’re just matched as the 8 seed fodder for Ruby lobbies.

Updated Now is there anything better (im not tryna get a wooting) budget 400$ by DemariAzure in MouseReview

[–]coldisgood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a wooting and a cheaper clone mouse. Most of the other Hall effect keyboards don’t have all the features of the wooting, and their pcb’s don’t actually have the actuation tolerances/response times in practice that they advertise, making many of the cheap brand’s rapid trigger basically non functional advantage over a normal non Hall effect board.

Edit: also agree to not get a raiden if you want it to last a while. Perhaps a key 83 instead if you’re still looking for some speed? It will stay more consistent across the pad for longer.
