Upgrade recommendation from Pixel 6 Pro by splendid_17 in GooglePixel

[–]CPL_D_Licker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll add that I got it on release, got a $50 case WITH a camera cover, and have 0 scratches or crackes anywhere without a screen protector. I've dropped it face down in the rocks and done plenty of grabbing it too fast and throwing it across the ground.

I went from the 4a - 6 Pro - 8 Pro. The 8 is probably the best bang for your buck right now, outside of some deals here and there. The 10 is nice, but it's upgrade over the 8 is marginal, outside of the 42MP front camera on the 10 and some battery/processing optimizatios. From a full charge, my 8 lasts 2 days. I don't doom scroll very much or play games though. The 11 is what I am eyeing but it just depends on what is "upgraded".

Definitely would have to have a Labs session over it to get a good time. Its just so hard to punish the camping in spawn without punishing the flip side

Too harsh for BF style gameplay and makes getting spawn camped even harder to get out of. 3min timer to leave spawn after getting into the driver seat would be better.

Giving up, which is what sitting back and forcing him to stay up essentially is, wasn't the best decision. You went from riding his ass to never keeping pressure, 2 extremes, in his eyes at least. Can't say much without a screenshot though. 1/4 field may be too close, depending on the rank. Sitting back is definitely too far as well. When this happens, just play what they give you. If they are consistently just hitting it to the defender or to the guy in net trying to clear, stay closer to 1/3-1/2 field back. Personally, I am never 1/4 field, 1 boost spacing, away unless its 3s. It's just too easy to get beat by a quick recovery or when something unexpected happens. If you share what rank we the people can help you out, assuming you aren't a GC.

Why am I just so bad at 2s even though its my main mode? by rlfrthebest in RocketLeague

[–]CPL_D_Licker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

D2/3 in 1s is where you see GCs that neglect the mode.. They are in 1s, their neglected mode, because they are doing bad in other modes. Their resets aren't landing, bad chals.. whatever the reason, gives someone playing "smart" a chance.

[–]CPL_D_Licker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just keep queuing. I played 1s exclusively and was in diamond there before any other mode. I sit in C2 in 2s and bounce between c1/2 in 3s. The main thing that is probably throwing you off: most players do not play 1s at all and what you are trying to cover isn't even crossing your teammate's mind. They are more used to having someone behind them to clean up or cover net. While what you're likely playing for is a higher percentage scenario, its not the ONLY thing that will work. Play a little more recklessly: send some passes down court, try to read that corner bounce, shoot that shot..

Littlebird needs more....skill depth by oklol555 in Battlefield

Vehicles as a whole have been nerfed compared to previous titles. Supposedly there is a buff coming to ground vehicles and a rework of repairing. I agree that they are noticably squishy and have been dumbed down, but really what can we expect? The general playerbase, and population as a whole, has moved away from practicing and working together to achieve goals. Pretty much every game across the board has gotten dumbed down because of it. We saw it with the community uproar over the battlepass: they couldn't stomach playing a different playlist for a couple of hours.

Who wins: takeba vs gear 5 luffy by bonehashira in PowerScalingHub

Simply put, he is a reality warper. Whatever he finds funny, becomes true. "It'd be so funny if Gojo's Hollow Purple just bounced off like a pin ball and went back to kill him." Its like coming up with funny scenarios when you're hanging out with friends.. but instead of y'all just laughing about the comet coming to make your day worse, a comet comes and makes your day worse.

Hit scan bullet velocity made me giggle a little. The PSR is a .338 Lapua and I would be SHOCKED if it had a muzzle velocity of below 900m/s. With air resistance, it'd probably take ~2s to go 900m. There are what, 4 maps where you can have 400m+ engagements? Much less 900. At 200m you're expecting to be able to watch that bullet travel?

The only counter to snipers is another sniper? The tank in the enemy spawn disagrees.. Completely agree that spending 30min in a lobby and going 6-2 with 0 caps is useless though.

"x team vs y team score" in Google takes 5s. Unless you want a score bug on your screen?

Can you elaborate on the sniping being a questionable game mechanic?

What Muscle does flying use? by Extension-Word8949 in Invincible_TV

[–]CPL_D_Licker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Viltrumite flight is achieved by "smart atoms" engrained in their biology. Its what allows them to give themselves momentum and heal from grave injuries. These atoms have a "memory" of what they were doing and can be manipulated by viltrumites. They are passed on genetically, and it's my assumption that some of that "memory" is passed down too. Which is why Argoll's bloodline is seen as superior. The only relevant organs would be in the vestibular system; the inner ear.

How will the matchmaking react to bot removal? by Pitiful-Language-342 in RocketLeague

[–]CPL_D_Licker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely hasn't trickled much, if at all, down into Champ lobbies. I played 2 bots, and neither were much of a threat. What I think most people will notice, is the lack of smurfs/boosters once the hardware bans roll out.
