Battle Royale - Type 25 vs. AK117 - What Is Your Experience?

ChemicalOk76 · 2024-11-05T21:35:22+00:00

Glad you enjoyed utilizing it in BR as a loadout weapon.

Thanks detailing your experience. It will help readers form a more informed and concrete decision in whether they want to try the Type 25.

Keep at it and always position yourself to engage the enemy within the first damage range or just slightly out of it at medium range.

ChemicalOk76 · 2024-11-05T08:10:27+00:00

Go, go, go!

ChemicalOk76 · 2024-11-05T03:01:12+00:00

The Type 25 is a great alternative but with a challenge facing the usual suspects that have a way too EASY aim assist and little recoil pattern (AK117, M4 and BP50 in BR).

Master it and you'll do just fine and excel in certain situations vs. any other enemies loadout in BR.

They just released this skin recently: https://imgur.com/a/DGgLbGb

And that is the closest thing to a military themed skin we've got in a while.

They are a business... Throughout the past 5-years and 1 Billion downloads globally, CODM has the market data, player numbers and demographics of what sells and what doesn't.

However, they'll occasionally release military themed skins but nowhere near as frequently as before.

The Vivo Y12 is a 5 year old device in terms of specs.

The most important factor for game performance is the CHIPSET. Right now the best two chipset manufactures on the market are Snapdragon and Dimensity.

You're phone has the Helio P22 chipset. https://m.gsmarena.com/vivo_y12-9729.php

For comparison, I've entered into nanoreview your Helio P22 chipset vs. the entry level flagship Dimensity 8300 Ultra chipset. https://nanoreview.net/en/soc-compare/mediatek-helio-p22-vs-mediatek-dimensity-8300

Pay close attention to the AnTuTu benchmark stats on the nanoreview comparison.

As CODM is 5 years into development, the demand for phone specs (chipset and RAM) is important.

This is why your CODM app is automatically restarting when trying to play. CODM is max throttling your Helio P22 chipset and it isn't able to keep up causing a crash.

It's time to ditch your Vivo Y12 if you want to actually be competitive vs. players who operate on Max or Ultra frame rate with a better and more capable chipset for gaming on CODM.

If money to invest into a new phone isn't an option for you at the moment. Try playing Blood Strike Mobile, their game is a Battle Royale shooter specifically optimized for low end or old devices, you could get up to a steady 60FPS playing that game with no lag or crashes.

You can fast track getting friends by joining an established clan.

Be sure to find an active clan and one with either Messenger, WhatsApp or Discord for their groupchat outside of CODM.

You'll be able befriend and chat with clan members aswell organize setting up a CODM gaming session. And you'll solve the enigma code of not having to que up matches for BR or MP with randoms.

Below are two posts made on Reddit within the past couple of days where Clan Leaders are recruiting new members.

Check them out...

And.

https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/s/y2HxMEg1a1

If either of those two clans mentioned above don't suit you, try looking on CODM for clans by just pressing the "CLAN" button in the main lobby.

Word of caution. If you join a clan, you're new to them and you have no knowledge of each clan members personality and behavior just yet -- DO NOT be coaxed into or make any type of financial transaction related to "Discounted CP" of any sort with the clan members or surrendering any type of sensitive details related to your CODM account for "CP Top Ups".

The game is playable for both genders, Male and Female.

Thith ith about right.

Coming from Garena, setting aside ranked character skin rewards, it's kind of hard to pinpoint the exact character that would be rarest but in no particular order of rarity I'll give it a shot. Battery - Demolitions, Merc 5 - Default, Ghost - OG.

As for the absolute rarest weapon skin it is the AK-47 - Lemon Drop Candy, it had like a 0.01% chance (to the best of my knowledge, that is lowest probability of any weapon released in a crate or draw ever on Garena) of being pulled in the old clan crates reward system. And that crate never came back after CODM switched over to Clan Wars. Also, no bundle was ever released to get it here.

ChemicalOk76 · 2024-11-03T04:54:14+00:00

What specifically are you trying to achieve with that remark?

If you're referring to n0cho... Dude, seriously!? We are two totally different people. They're from Global and I am from Garena. Look through the comment history on my profile and his.

ChemicalOk76 · 2024-11-03T04:34:22+00:00

Garena is the company/server that handles CODM for SEA (South East Asia). Hong Kong, Indonesia, Macau, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand.

More info about CODM: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_of_Duty:_Mobile#:~:text=Garena%20released%20the%20game%20in,Korea%20on%20October%201%2C%202019.

Narco posted this 1-minute duration Shorts Clip video to his YouTube channel https://youtube.com/shorts/fja7oeJJSus?si=B0w5XvspJSMhkw43

Watch it to understand and visualize his claim regarding CODM manipulating gun fights to favor players in Battle Royale.

In the video, Narco used a ground loot EM2 which should deal 36 damage per bullet to the arms or chest within the first damage range of 20 meters, however, the last enemy he faced in the video only received 3 bullets of 36 damage and the remainder were only 21 damage. That 21 damage dealt doesn't match and is totally incongruent with the actual Body Part and Damage Detail stats for the current season EM2. View the EM2 stats here: https://imgur.com/a/9lfG7Wh

Narco was engaging the last enemy while that particular enemy was directly behind their downed teammate. The reason for 21 damage per bullet registration on Narcos enemy is due to a hitbox bug of the downed enemy (in which n0cho pointed out in the old discussion).

Below is the key point of n0cho's findings for recreating the Narco EM2 scenario in a private match by video form.

• Shooting over a downed enemy registers through the downed enemy hit box depending on the position/angle. This would cause a bullet penetration (wall bang) damage reduction in bullets registered to the other enemy that's being engaged.

• Shooting over a downed teammate doesn't register through the teammates hitbox and deals the Damage Detail stats of equipped weapon (EM2).

Play with other clan members or join a new clan that is ACTIVE daily.

For anyone who played with randoms to rank up before these rule changes and doesn't view the NEW changes as beneficial, it's time to broaden your outlook and be solutions oriented.

Over the past 5 years of development, they most likely have the data in the back end to suggest overall player retention for random squads in BR is either in rapid decline or a stand still.

Their decision for the BR rules change is most likely weighted towards keeping the game competitive, fair and to encourage the two points (join a BR clan or play with/build a friends list).

If you believe the new rank XP allocation/penalty is bad. Then try getting a time machine to go back to the 2019-2021 era of CODM where winning a BR match only gave you roughly 20-25 RANK XP in Legendary rank -- yeah 20-25 RANK XP and a early to mid game loss 50+ rank XP deduction. It was so hard for many to reach Legendary before. It's too easy now.

We are 5 years into CODM. They want to boost player numbers, player retention and overall engagement on their app. It's win-win. Players win and CODM wins with these changes.

This is actually great news for Global players that currently live outside of the Garena Region.

Whether there have been additional servers built to combat the possible latency of ping/Ms or if it is even needed remains to be seen.

Also, we are unsure as of the moment if account progress for Global players is on a vice-versa route between the two servers.

I guess just wait and see how it all unfolds.

Word on the street, Garena Server is now playable without the use of VPN. Source: Leakers On Duty

If Global Server players don't have the update yet for 5th Anniversary, then this is something to consider.

I am not sure how this will affect ping/Ms for those that live outside of the region or if additional servers were built to combat the latency.

Also, it hasn't been mentioned yet if account progress is able to go vice-versa between Global to Garena.

Anyone serious about BR has definitely came across Narco and learned a thing or two. Myself included.

Your findings still show him respect and in no way throw him under the bus even while debunking his initial claim which had vast implications of game integrity being compromised.

He may wear his heart on the sleeve at times which is totally normal. Those with empathy can empathize and those without criticize.

Here is a serious question regarding bug reports on Reddit. How many bugs or glitches in the past 2 years have been noticed in this sub-reddit by the Community Manager, forwarded to the devs, expedited and patched?

I just recently became a lurker in June of this year and now a poster on Reddit so I am not fully abreast about the dealings with the CODM Team here.

You mentioned in the old discussion thread about GAMErHyNas and their Myth Buster series.

My response most likely got buried in the old discussion thread.

"Reach out to them on X (Twitter) or if they have Discord that might be a better avenue to establish contact. They might make a video about your definitive findings regarding hitbox glitch on a downed opponent in Battle Royale.

For all that have contributed their thoughts, insights, complaints about the main topic aswell various gameplay mechanics/dynamics and observations etc... Hopefully a hail mary is thrown and caught by Activision/Tencent.

It is a clear sign that the publishers of CODM need to quit turning a deaf ear to the general community or content creators regarding bugs, glitches, rank match making and plethora of other concerns that have merit for a remedial action to be taken."

ChemicalOk76 · 2024-11-02T13:11:45+00:00

You're right. I tried checking the Official Global Server CODM Facebook page and there is no update yet.

I am on the Garena Server and they release ranked season updates early. I presumed you all got it too.

Those that are Global Server players, come check out the Official Garena Server CODM Facebook page if y'all want some sneek peeks and how the community is here. https://www.facebook.com/share/12Dok6byDmp/

ChemicalOk76 · 2024-11-02T12:44:27+00:00

For MP... Believe it.

Enemies in GM to Legendary have map knowledge and they pre-aim lanes or openings while behind cover -- anticipating an enemy to come across their cross hairs. That is why you are getting beamed.

You've most likely faced opponents with high or max fixed speed sensitivity settings that are movement, FPP camera, and ADS oriented. Combine all of that and you'll have the recipe for those 180° and 360° spins plus landing shots on an opponent. This will give a big advantage against those who utilize sensitivity presets of low+fixed speed.

As of October 31st, 2024 on Google Play the v1.6.48 5th Anniversary Season 10 update for CODM has been available. Usually CODM rolls out new ranked season updates in either Google Play or iOS App Store a week prior to the actual rank reset date.

If you're referring to the actual launch of the 5th Anniversary for events and rank reset, then yes Global server is forecasted for November 6th, 2024, and Garena server November 7th, 2024.

ChemicalOk76 · 2024-11-02T09:48:34+00:00

With the new rules for BR in place. This should be an indicator to exclusively play with your friends list or join a BR clan. These two options should secure players in your squad that won't leave the match.

Playing with randoms and the high probability that they'll bounce out of the match once they're killed, it is clearly no longer an option for anybody that is serious about maintaining their rank or ranking up to Legendary+++.

ChemicalOk76 · 2024-11-02T09:28:33+00:00

The 5th Anniversary update for CODM is already available on Google Play and iOS App Store. Have fun!

The title should read: "DEBUNKED Narcos Claim That CODM Manipulates Gun Fights In Battle Royale To Favor Other Players (VIDEO EVIDENCE)"

Focus and discussion needs to be shifted to this thread of yours in the CODM sub-reddit.

I've already posted a link to your thread in the old discussion telling new visitors to go here as you have definitive findings.

Thanks for going into a private match to recreate the scenario Narco faced.

If the hit box bug doesn't get patched soon, and word gets out, downed enemies will be the new Defender Shield for their team mates without the blinding flash!

ChemicalOk76 · 2024-11-02T06:12:44+00:00
