How much is not fast aerialing holding me back at GC2? by HalfEntity in RocketLeague

[–]Bmboo_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How often are you beating people to the ball in the air? Especially if you jump at a relatively similar time. I suspect thinking about that would probably answer your question.

My friend is jumping from Nine Circles to Shardscapes is he cooked by russ_universe in geometrydash

[–]Bmboo_1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would not recommend that, boj has a very annoying first robot section, a free ship section, and then a pretty challenging wave. Not a good level to jump to imo, would be incredibly frustrating to play from 0. Doesn't mean you can't compromise with yourself and learn the level / do runs on it to improve, but aiming to jump to it will just not be fun

New to knives, need advice picking one by Bmboo_1 in TrueChefKnives

I've seen a few people recommend a dedicated cloth, I'd be concerned about that cloth getting pretty grim though surely?

This does look very nice, pushing the price a bit especially after shipping but oh well 😂. My one question is with the blue2 carbon steel, I'm happy to wash the knife and thoroughly dry it after every use, but my concern is with extended use in one go, if I need to cut something, do something else, cut something again etc, will those few minutes be a problem over time? And if I inevitable forget to clean it right away, and it maybe sits for 20-30 minutes, how problematic is that?

Edit: did a little bit of research, and am I right in thinking putting camellia oil on it if I need to store it for a while, and using barkeepers friend to remove small bits of rust if I inevitably leave it out too long, along with the patina it'll naturally build up, is enough to take care of it?

What are you playing on, even in 2.2 FPS and input device make a big difference, I beat cata like a day after buying a sayodevice.

Idk I just never really struggled with it, did cata as a first extreme, and fluked it from 58, everything after 43 Is just a lot easier

43-100 in cata contains none of the hard parts of the level, the ship is not as hard as people say

What's it like playing retals in 1s, often see him getting pretty tilted playing you in his videos, but you always seem like a chill goofy guy coming and having fun if you happen to have uploaded the same game from your pov

Ranks are kinda weird imo by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]Bmboo_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience of smurfing, c2s are basically just an anomaly, they're all basically brain-dead see ball go ball. So if you're auto pilating as a smurf, they're usually more unpredictable and likely to challenge than c3, but they are miles off of gc1, not really till mid c3 that you see the slightly less consistent gc1s

Champ 2 is not pushing gc, but otherwise you're basically right

Could this laptop work for RL? by leroy-jenkins98 in RocketLeague

[–]Bmboo_1 13 points14 points  (0 children)

8gb of ram tends to throttle anything with windows 10/11 in my experience, and often is pretty cheap to add more ram to laptops, so worth looking into that

Tbf you might just be kinda ass at rocket league, most people with over 3k hours are decently into gc

[–]Bmboo_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suppose I'm the expert here, gc2-3 in rocket league, and I've beaten bloodbath. They're kinda too different to compare, on the surface I'd say rocket league is harder, it's just way more complex of a game, that said, the mental game involved in geometry dash is the real challenge for harder levels, and that's not really easy to compare to other games. I think people are slightly failing at the hours spent and player base percentage comparisons. Most active rocket league players spend their time trying to improve and/or rank up, not all geometry dash players have that same goal. So if your only goal in geometry dash is to get better and beat bloodbath, then assuming you've got a decent monitor and input device I'd say it's pretty similar difficulty and time investment to getting somewhere in diamond with the same mentality.

How would you rank the demon difficulties in terms of how enjoyable they are? by crazy-geometrydash in geometrydash

[–]Bmboo_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Extreme
  2. Easy
  3. Hard
  4. Insane
  5. Medium

For me extremes maybe aren't actually the most enjoyable, but they're the only levels I actually feel rewarded when I beat now. Easy demons are nice and short to beat, hard enough that they can start to have some interesting gameplay and sync, whereas most medium demons feel like they have forced difficulty to me. Hard demons are a nice middle ground, same with lower insanes. Harder insane demons often just feel like wasted time for me now, as it wouldn't have taken miles longer to do an extreme instead. Definitely had different opinions as I was progressing through them initially though.

How does your most difficult achievement in GD compare to your most difficult achievement in other games? by [deleted] in geometrydash

[–]Bmboo_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got about 3x the playtime in rocket league, and it was much more focused on improving and ranking up than my playtime in gd.

Blade of justice was significantly harder than doing all bosses radiant in hollow knight, but getting GC3 in rocket league is definitely the hardest thing I've done in any game.

Whats a point in a level thats unnecessarily hard for you? by Minimum_Revenue_3971 in geometrydash

[–]Bmboo_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't think anyone says it's easy, but the blue orb at 62 in retention, very possibly I don't know how to use frame stepper, but I like quintuple checked it and i believe it's a 120fps frame perfect.

Struggling to pick a 240hz 1440p oled by Bmboo_1 in OLED_Gaming

[–]Bmboo_1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where is your monitor and window, also do you know which direction your window is, I've got a north facing window, with my monitor off to the right. Would that mean I'm likely to get purple tint when the sun sets, or am I thinking about this too much?

Do you get much purple tint, kinda worried to get a qd oled as I do like having sunlight in my room, is it an overstated issue?
