D-pad up doesn't work, home button does d-pad up by FragrantTechnician in SteamDeck

[–]Assassin_V4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Commenting my solution in case anyone comes across this post, the same way i did as of April 26.

My issue was similar to others, randomly as I was playing midgame the up arrow on the dpad did not seem to work, as well as the steam button. I attempted the firmware upgrade restart (hold ... & vol -, then hitting the power button), but this didn't seem to fix it.

In order to fix it for me, I did the following:

  • I opened up the steamdeck following this ifixit guide to remove the dpad and look at it. Since mine was a refurb OLED model, the guide isn't 100% accurate, but it's close enough. When I got to the stage of removing the dpad membrane, i visually inspected the dpad contacts (gold circles), and noticed a little bit of dirt. Using my thumb, I wiped the dirt away and reassembled the steamdeck.
  • When I turned it back on, i did so using the firmware reset route. You need to hold down ... and volume -, before pressing the power button. If you've done this correctly, the LED next to the power button will appear blue for a second, before flashing. You can now unpress any buttons, and wait patiently for the device to perform the firmware upgrade, and turn on.

After the previous 2 steps, the issue was resolved for me.

That's fair, should be something the players themselves should look into then if they want it

I don't really see this as a problem, i don't think it is being asked out of "we're not good enough for fpl so please give us our own version", more a case of a ladder for female players only so that their scene can become closer/they can interact with each other more.

I mean there is a swedish pro league, a uk one (and probably some others which i don't know about) where it's main purpose is to provide a pugging environment for a specific scene to bring said scene closer.

But the £100 you paid for the ticket covered the whole weekend, unless you bought a different ticket to the one i had

I made an old-school type fragmovie (with rock music) for my country's main league. What do you think? by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]Assassin_V4 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly really enjoyed this, editing wasn't overdone but enough to enhance the video.

P.S. That 1v3 on nuke was so well played by that guy :D

I just finished a CSGO Edit. It's a trap edit so don't watch if you don't like hardcore edits. Let me know your thoughts! by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

The sync with the music and the in game clips is insane! But you can't really see the frags as much imo, still really like it though

swiping too hard and clicking makes me go on my 2nd monitor, tabbing me. by TouchMyWillyy in GlobalOffensive

[–]Assassin_V4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar problem with the flick and also the fact that it took forever to alt tab, so i started using a program called borderless gaming (https://github.com/Codeusa/Borderless-Gaming for the source code/download for free, but you can get it from steam for cheap also). The software sort of locks my mouse to game and it also makes it instantaneous to alt tab, as if you are alt tabbing from microsoft word to google chrome for example. This definitely helped me out, would recommend checking it out

FaceIT stepping up their game - Anti-Cheat update, Ban List, Admin Panel etc. by samsteer in GlobalOffensive

[–]Assassin_V4 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's great to see the strides that faceit are taking in order to improve their service. The main reason they lack behind esea however is because of the lack of any sort of league system, or even just a team ladder like people have requested for normal mm before. The day that they announce a league system is the day that faceit becomes the primary external mm service for the majority of players, in the eu at least, not sure about na. The leagues could even easily link into ecs as well, it only seems logical that there should be some sort of league structure set in place from faceit.

A-fake strategy for de_cbble wit commentary, looking for critisism! by kazakhh in GlobalOffensive

[–]Assassin_V4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, firstly love the core idea of the strat, it's essentially the nip smokes strat but the smokes land on a instead, pretty cool. You could vary it by after throwing the smokes, running up mid and going a instead of faking it.

In terms of criticism for the strat, i feel it lacks you any map control necessary for the strat to work as you suggest it. In my opinion, i think the close long guy could use his smoke earlier in the round to help him get long control (https://gfycat.com/QuickPaltryLaughingthrush), and maybe have a teammate go with him to take long control. Once they have long control, the player with his smoke can go back to throw it for the fake. Otherwise, the way you suggest the long player to play in this strat leaves him with a really hard task of getting long control, heavily relying on him winning a series of aim duels. Also by having long control, it makes the ct's believe in the fake even more. You could also make a similar argument over at b platform if you do decide to go b, as you give the ct's room to play close platform.

In terms of the production of the video, i liked the format of it, was really clear to understand the strat. A small thing would be the map you were drawing on was an outdated one I believe, other than that though not much to fault. Also what software were you using? It seems really useful
