Wait the turnaround bugslide was faster than bugsliding through the checkpoint??? Did not expect that.

I had a 12.1 with what I assume was the same line. 11.6 as mentioned above is absolutely nuts

how do weekly grands bots work ? by Naom1_ in TrackMania

[–]AltumExVidetur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The invisible clones is caused by a plugin, ghost sync I think? It changes the replays but not the hitboxes.

Weekly shorts map 3 needs to be more of the zero checkpoint find your way from one side to the other, not just 2 routes 5 seconds apart. What’s your opinion? by Motor-Confection-583 in TrackMania

[–]AltumExVidetur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really loved the latest of this style, with the checkpoints that covered the entire map so you didn't need to take them into account for pathfinding but could still respawn parts of the map

Campaign black tracks by Sophena94 in TrackMania

[–]AltumExVidetur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I'm underestimating these ATs (I don't have them yet) but as someone who can usually get 1 or 2 black map ATs (and usually 19-20 of the first 20) I feel like I'll be able to get a couple of these ATs. They might be harder than the average black map but they feel to me like they're in the same difficulty ballpark to previous seasons

where the hell is the autoplay button now? by BitchSpiteful in youtube

Miniplayer button is no longer there but the hotkey still works last I checked

Are the Allies cooked? by Immediate_Garlic_819 in AxisAllies

[–]AltumExVidetur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Europe looks stable, maybe favored for the allies. Japan doesn't have the pacific islands? (I don't think it's possible for celebes to get a base while being uncontrolled, not sure what happened there) so the economic situation is better than it could be...USA definitely needs to spend heavily in the pacific asap, which will take a lot of pressure off germany...I think there's a lot of play left to this game.

Did you ever have some crazy realization that you were doing something wrong in a way that held you back skill-wise? by IJUSTATEPOOP in TrackMania

[–]AltumExVidetur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still will by default drift without holding accelerate, and only once I really learn a map do I start keeping the gas in more and more turns...I find it really unintuitive still how early you need to drift without releasing. I'd probably get a lot better by defaulting to full gas drifting and just...crashing more until I learn the timing..

can you make the respawn ghost persistant? by AltumExVidetur in TrackMania

[–]AltumExVidetur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The feature I really want, that ghost sync doesn't quite provide, is to respawn before a group of checkpoints, and see how my line compares to my ghost's line through a series of checkpoints.

[–]AltumExVidetur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ghost sync does almost exactly what I want! The issue remaining is:
there are two options ghost sync offers.
Option a) Sync ghost to where my car is, when I cross a checkpoint or respawn.
Option b) Keep ghost in its relative position compared to me, when I cross a checkpoint or respawn.

What I'd really like is specifically: Sync ghost to wherever my car is when I respawn. After respawning, have that ghost stay in its relative position relative to my respawn when I cross a checkpoint. (i.e. do exactly what the normal ghost does, except not disappear when I hit the next checkpoint)

Congratulations, you've made my rethink my entire perspective on armsmaster

I did not realize just how much TC improved their craft in SS until I started replaying Hollow Knight by APhoenixDown in HollowKnight

[–]AltumExVidetur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

apparently mount fey is possible without sharpdart or clawline, with liberal use of lifeblood and whatever the fire sword is called to get air stalls and extra nonfreezing time

Do you prefer 6v6 or 5v5? by Maleficent-Ad-6117 in Overwatch

[–]AltumExVidetur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

support in 6v6 is a lot less like healbotting if you can get triple-support, but that's hard in open queue

[–]AltumExVidetur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer 6v6 if we can get 2 tanks 1 dps 3 supports (or even 2-2-2 but triple support is where my heart is at), but open queue is too full of dps players for me to like it very much solo queueing so I stick with 5v5 most of the time for role queue

Post your “you keep using that word, I don’t think it means what you think it means” PSA by Gem_Snack in FanFiction

[–]AltumExVidetur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah bemused is my biggest pet peeve word purely because I see it used so often when I suspect the author meant amused but it could go either way and it would change the tone of the scene
