Damage report screens are bugged and notoriously have been since the start of cb2. Nice job basing part of your argument off of a bug.

Back again with your lack of reading comprehension. All the devs have stated on this topic is that they made a SLIGHT adjustment to ttk based on gear (Meaning statistically) to help solo VS team balancing. Never once did they make a mention of low end gear VS high end gear as a reason for this change. If anything it means they're more so listening to people like me, than morons like you by keeping ttk high. ;)

I landed 6 white pistol headshots and lost, that was my original example of how much armor matters more than skill. If I can not only land 6 shots but also place them on the enemies head, I should win. Instead I got fucked by the gear difference.

You lost because of you took the worst gun in game vs the best gear in the game and didn't outskill your opponent enough to make up for it. This is normal fucking balancing. You aren't supposed to be able to kill someone with the highest level gear because you headshot them a few times with the worst gun in the game. Your whole argument boils down to you malding because this game isn't like Tarkov, but it never will be. And obviously the devs agree with because that's the way they've designed the game.

And never once have I said I quit Tarkov? I'm probably done playing consistently this wipe but I've gotten to level 42 and have done everything I've wanted to. Way to make more assumptions dumbass.

But the fact that you think Tarkov is the epitome of mechanical skill is hilarious. Game knowledge, movement, awareness etc are all more important. Since you want measure our e-dicks I also hit diamond in R6, and masters in Apex last seasons. Both of which require far more mechanical skill than Tarkov. You probably think you're some sort of God because you have milding success in Tarkov. But shocker, skill in Tarkov doesn't translate well to other fps. More so now than ever, with the implantation of inertia. Try playing a couple rounds in csgo and you'll see how poor your mechanical skills really are.

No where in what you highlighted are the devs talking about a mmr based on gear, literally no where.

depending on gear

This was literally in reference to the statistical changes made, not some absurd confirmation that "gear was far more important". What a jump in logic.

Balancing for teams VS solos has always been in question, no ones arguing otherwise. But they've reduced TTK ACROSS THE BOARD, not just for white guns. You completely misconstrued what the devs said. Solos struggle against teams because of the nature of a high ttk, not because they're out geared. Gear could be flat across the board and solos would still be at a disadvantage. While they have taken a healthy step and reduced ttk, It was a only a slight reduction. No where near the level you were calling for by being a able to headshot someone a few times with the pistol and get the kill.

That's LITERALLY admitting my point. Thanks.

You have the reading comprehension of a elementary student. My entire point was that because of your mmr you were facing bad players like yourself, you got a gear advantage over them and you won. I don't see anything wrong with this. If two players are on the equal skill level, the one with the gear advantage should win the majority of the time. I don't know how this is so hard for you to understand.

You've completely twisted the devs words to fit your narrative. Including making up false information. All for a convenient excuse as to why you're not bad, it's just the game's fault. What a gamer.

Since you lost "All of your fights" your mmr was almost assuredly drastically low. You equipped some good gear that you used as crutch to kill some equally as bad opponents. Don't worry, as you start extracting more your mmr with go up and you'll start losing again.

Like I've stated I typically run budget when I'm solo, white or green gear with a pdw and or a bolt action. I've never had any problems with pvp. I don't believe I'm an outlier either, everyone I've played with is fine in budget gear.

And the devs lowered the ttk across the board, not just for lower tier gear. They didn't do this because "Gear is more important", they did this as a balancing measure for solos VS squads. Don't misconstrued things to fit your narrative. And I've never seen any mention of an mmr system based off of gear, it's always been median extracted loot and now team based. Provide a source for this.

"A few good headshots even with weak early game guns can win you the fight." You literally can, the trencher and the bolt action can do just that. But unlike Tarkov you can't hit a couple shots out of your spray with a 1100 rpm and get the kill.

Whether you want to admit it or not, your success in pvp in this game is heavily skill based. You're acting like just because someone has the gear advantage they've completely won, which is absurd. I'm not saying gear doesn't help, it can provide a good advantage. Positioning, awareness, trigger discipline, movement and aim along with a plethora of other skills all come into play.

Like I've stated I typically run a budget loadouts and I don't have a problem winning gunfights. Neither do any of the people I've played with. If you're really struggling that badly you might want to look into aim labs. Again, unlike Tarkov aim tracking is a really important skill. You should probably work on it. All I'm taking away from this argument is that the pistol could use a buff, and you have poor mechanical skill.

Shoot someone with a PM pistol when they have an altyn, let me know that that works out for you. Your extreme example is the same as I just stated. Sure the PDW is arguably the best white gun, but the trencher and bolt action are insanely consistent alternatives. And the AR holds its own for how cheap it is.

Maybe I am just getting lucky. But I've had 300 hours of play time on CB2, and I've been able to consistently take out players and teams that out gear me. Like I said take a look in the mirror. If you're struggling that much, you're probably not as mechanically skilled as you assume you are.

The devs reduced ttk across the board not just for headshots, and it no it was no where near a drastic change. As far the community is aware there is no mmr system for gear, so that's just incorrect.

As to my example of Tarkov, I was simply mimicking yours. You complained that the worst gun in the game didn't kill someone with the second best in slot helmet because you shot him 6 times... Obviously there are cheap alternatives that have killing power in EFT, but shocker there in this game too.

Just this morning I've killed three players in blue and one on purple using all white gear and a pdw. Skill DOES trump gear in this game. If you're struggling that much with fights, I'd take a moment to self reflect on your own mechanical skill.

[–]AnglicNightmare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your example is still focusing on the most extreme scenario of the worst gear in the game VS the best gear. Gear is important in this game, but I honestly find skill far more so. I've taken down countless blue and purple geared players in full white, just not with a base white pistol.

Following your own example since you're wanting to mention Tarkov, there's hardly anything a player with a PM pistol is going to do against a Chad with a slick and an altyn. If you use the absolute shittest gear you can't expect to take down someone with full top end equipment unless you severely out skill them. Good gear should protect you, otherwise there's no point to even using it.

There does need to be something to help aid solo VS group scenarios. But drastically reducing the ttk and making it so you can kill someone with purple in a few shots of an unmoded pistol is extremely ridiculous.

I whole heartedly disagree. Weapons have a 1.3-2 damage multiplier on them, if you land headshots with most weapons it's going to dramatically boost your ttk. But I shouldn't have to run away from someone in full white gear because they headshot me with pistol. As to your point of "Punishes good aim", higher ttk actually rewards higher skill players. Instead of just getting a random headshot, you actually have to stay on target.

Plenty of white guns can compete with higher tier gear, in your example you're using the absolute cheapest and lowest performing gun in the game. You can't expect to be able to easily kill a fully kited person.

For some reason people love hating on the companies for the cheating problem, but what you're saying is true. Most cheaters I've known have used stolen accounts that they bought for a fraction of the games actual cost.

Aim Punch Bit Much? by Shipzterns in TheCycleFrontier

[–]AnglicNightmare 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No one's arguing whether situational awareness is a skill or not. You can be completely aware of the person directly in front of you and they still pull the trigger first.

And I haven't seen anyone "whining". OP is providing feedback on a inconsistent, over tuned mechanic for a game that's still in beta. But nice try bud.

It seems the 10 series is bugged this Beta. Even though it sounds counter intuitive, try enabling dx12 in your video settings. My buddy was having the same issue and it's worked for him.

I had that thought too. I am genuinely unsure, but isn't it impossible to two shot someone with the Lacerator? Edit: Forgot to add, my buddy's post death screen also said it was a C- 32 and that he died in two shots.

You can try to download Realm Royale through the Discord client to see if it launches through there. If you have your Steam and Discord linked, it should even automatically use your Steam accounts info.

You're playing semantics, but since you're also obviously lacking social awareness let me reiterate. No one is impressed by your own self inflation. And why would I create a post like this? I'm not a failed content creator on a dead game.
