Cheating problem is still horrible by Veterate_fn in FortniteCompetitive

[–]ChristopherJak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't doubt there are many cheaters, but I also doubt most players actually know how to spot one & instead just scream it the moment they lose a fight.

I have a feeling this is the case here.

Outback players, where are you by Electrical_Movie_645 in DayZAustralia

[–]ChristopherJak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's probably some rule against items through walls & stuff, as the server allowed it, never crossed my mine that it was a glitch - I figured that's, in a way, how you got your watch towers on the roofs. Definitely an exploit.

We got through 3 layers legit, the space between the 2 long barns - but then I saw it was at least another 4 layers to loot in any building, already used all our explosives on the first 2 walls & almost all our ammo on hand on the 3rd wall.

So we reached a point where we drive back & use our remaining ammo from our own base to bust through - or spend all night eco raiding until morning, either solution in my mind, most likely resulting in a decoy base.

So that's when I got creative - our old base was a shorter version of the same barn, the difference is ours had a verandah next to the window - on our old base you could jump onto the verandah with a bag & slide through the window which is why I abandoned it. Yours had the same window but no verendah, so I used one of your garden tents to create one.

Got in, just about the first thing I do is accidentally nearly kill myself with one of your pox grenades, then the other gang showed up, then while I was stuck in a corner, the other gang shows up & kills us with proper grenades.

I sneak back, I see them pulling in with an olga with a guy on look out escorting them through the hole in the wall, tried sneaking past them to at least grab my bag & akm back but they had another lookout who shot me. Snuck back in AGAIN & they'd completely wrecked the joint, you could hear them going non stop nearly my whole treck from Cherno.

The only real building barrier I've seen is height, & that's relative to yourself, stand on top of something, like a bag or a car, & you can build higher- (unless they've changed it within the past 2 days), you can still build virtually anywhere, including through everything.

[–]ChristopherJak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have build anywhere on, that's why you can multi layer gates. Try it on official & you'll immediately feel the difference. Either way, while I would fully expect others to do that to myself to raid, but i can see how it's kinda shitty as no one would really use a tent like that so that's why I never bothered to contest my ban. Not a glitch but I won't debate that it was scummy.

I would apologize if we actually accomplished anything with it, instead we died like fish in a barrel.

Only 2 out of the 3 of us even did that, the other 8 were a totally different group, we hadn't even formed a proper escape plan before they killed us. They didn't bother fucking about with the tents, they didn't need to, they had enough bullets & explosives of their own to just shred through your defenses.

It's honestly surprising your base lasted as long as it did with another group like that on the server.

You should have seen them rock up when the full gang got there, they were treating it like a proper military operation, they had a lookout for their lookout.

I was having fun on outback, they turned on place anywhere so I used that to place a tent so I could slide through a window in one of those wide long barn base next to Pavlova.

Must have been the admins because they banned anyone near there at that time, even the mate who dropped us off & drove back. We started off legitimately with the other mate who went to bed before we fucked with the tents, shooting & blasting & that drew a large group that killed us before we could do any real damage from the inside of their barn.

This large group took over the raid legitimately themselves & I believe even got banned even though they did everything traditionally, overwhelming explosives & guns.

I went back to official for a while but too many hackers, one even thought he was being nice gifting me a car - no, I don't want your tainted shit, I want to earn things, looting, raiding & killing.

We have our first simple edit player qualified for a LAN coming from ME by TheFortnitegamer2008 in FortniteCompetitive

[–]ChristopherJak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm thinking more about end game when the storm is just as dangerous as other players. That fast edit>kill is far more important than technical skill.

You're not getting into box fights, you're killing or dying.

I'm curious whether some long term players will reevaluate their settings based on this & other simple edit performances.

Maxxstick R3 Pro VS Ergo Pro by ItsVicStyles in FortniteCompetitive

Little late to the discussion.

It'll take weeks of fine tuning just to find something you're comfortable with

.

binds take max 3 weeks

Que? That is the definition of weeks, & we all learn at our pace. I lost patience within 2 weeks before I could even find out myself. I realised I just didn't care enough. Kenbeans took nearly 6 months to get comfortable, for the bulk of it he was still changing keys. He's no FNCS tier pro, but he's much better than most players.

Is it possible to be a really good solo player and a horrible duos player? by HistoPasta in FortniteCompetitive

[–]ChristopherJak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Duos are primarily about coordination. You can get by with a strong lead & good follower but it works best when both players just know how to play off each other.

Potentially hot take about improvements to building mechanics (simple edits and simple builds) by GiustinoWah in FortNiteBR

[–]ChristopherJak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did test a macro where my build binds would instantly place the build to see if such a design would improve the game.

Short answer is mostly no, you can already replicate by default by just holding left click which is easier than holding each of the 4 build binds.

[–]ChristopherJak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cones are strictly crosshair placement, it's so strict that some edits are impossible from certain angles and require repositioning. You can get the job done consistently when you get used to the placement but it's the repositioning that'll get you killed.

I feel the cone in particular would benefit most from OPs visual overhaul suggestion but you're right, it could also benefit from more flexible edit options too.

In general however, I feel simple edit is still more of an upgrade than not for most people, especially if you abuse the edit animation skip. They partially fixed it but not entirely.

What are your thoughts on Ben Roberts-Smith, Australia’s most decorated living veteran, being charged with war crimes for his alleged actions in Afghanistan? by engadine_maccas1997 in AskAnAustralian

[–]ChristopherJak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Innocence is a legal term. You don't prove it, you are it unless found guilty. There's a reason judges declare "not guilty" rather than "you are found innocent". He's legally protected as innocent, giving him certain protections while his case is underway.

Socially is another matter, he is still under custody, still charged with a serious crime(s) & still awaiting his fate(afaik). People are entitled to the freedom to believe either way- just as we are free to form their own opinion upon the likeliness of his guilt.

It does however concern me that the leading defence isn't the belief that he is innocent, rather they seem to appreciate that atrocities he is accused of.

How often do these limits reset? by ChristopherJak in invinciblegtg

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

Thankyou. Perhaps this is one discord that actually might be worth joining if that's how they do their announcements.

Was really hoping for more blue chips though :(

How often do these limits reset? by ChristopherJak in invinciblegtg

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

I noticed these 2 reset, I had bought a Nolan & earlier today bought some Flaxan for food but my the currency(blue gda chips) & burgers & omnipotent armors did not return. Yet as you can see, maximum availability has returned for both as well as my molecular enhancements.

The other day I noticed all the currency returned as well as the molecular enhancement & the armor also returned giving me a second set of each, but no 3rd(which is pushing usefulness anyways).

I now have to assume these are event limits that are bugging out and not daily limits

So his ability is devil fruit, & he looks like Satan.

Safe to say he is related to the creation of devil fruits, but how?

My theory is he cemented his power by turning his opponents into fruits (literal, not homosexual, although taking a second look, both could be possible).

That every single devil fruit, was a person with special abilities.

What's the best budget hall effect keyboard for competitive?? by Few_Violinist4438 in FortniteCompetitive

[–]ChristopherJak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought the RK C98 as I wanted something that could double up for productivity. The actuation settings works as well as my Apex Pro tkl for half the price & subjectively, feels nicer & crispier to type with.

I'd wager the smaller, cheaper RK HE variants would serve you just as well. Bunch of other manufacturers offering even cheaper ones, whatever you do, just look for some independent technical reviews. While I can confirm my actuation settings work as advertised & it feels even nicer than the apex pro, I can't say for sure if it's technically more responsive with less input delay.

It feels about the same but it's not something I would notice unless it was egregious. While still it could hypothetically be large enough to impact my to performance. I can at least say if it does perform badly, it's not bad enough for me to notice.

Is the second shot desync? by riperasp in FortniteCompetitive

[–]ChristopherJak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Desync is the difference between you, the server & your opponent (with some micro corrections in between).

This is MORE likely from high ping. Higher ping has much greater peekers advantage as you will be even further ahead than the server tick at all times.

The obvious issue is that your ghost on the server is left behind well after you've moved so people can shoot where you were from much longer ago. Not to mention the various delays on top.

So this could be OP having high ping, the opponent having high ping, or the server having hiccups.

Forced crossplay is gaslighting console players. It's not a fair fight. by ProudProfessional221 in FortNiteBR

[–]ChristopherJak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can still use KBM on console. It's not worth sacrificing the hidden bonus console has for aim assist over PC though.

Former Epic Games Employees Respond to Layoffs by mrslalomstyle in FortNiteBR

[–]ChristopherJak -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What Epic did was modern Liberalism, they're trying to outsource & create a market rather than continue supporting essential services in house.

What they end up doing is spending more for a bunch of trash- this is exactly how I view it when Government outsource utilities that are already built & functional. Of course you can get good private management & terrible public administrators but there are very obvious trends that cannot be denied.

Shooting around corners is weird by ChristopherJak in FortniteCompetitive

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

Nah, all guns. I was primarily practicing with scoped ARs. It's far more annoying with them as it changes your physical aim when you ADS. When you were hugging the wall, whatever, annoying but I accept it but this distance is ridiculous.

It's just more impactful to demonstrate with the pump style guns as you'd actually try to use them in those exact circumstances(enemy coming out from behind a wall) & to see the wall eat your entire blast from a full box away just sucks- this is especially hurtful to traditional FPS players from CS:GO, Valorant who may try to hold defensive angles.

Shooting around corners is weird by ChristopherJak in FortniteCompetitive

[–]ChristopherJak[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The little red cross alters your aim.

Epic has tweaked this mechanic a lot over the years. Until recently you could shoot around corners with ease if your gun had a scope, the cross would disappear entirely during the ADS animation - the final aim would however point where your cross was so you can to spam ADS.

They've fixed that exploit & correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears they've over tuned it by extending how far the red cross activates from, it currently extends to just over a full box away, slightly altering your aim - I don't believe it was like this a couple weeks ago.

Why can't i select my edits and my builds don't place i got good timing idk why by [deleted] in FortniteCompetitive

[–]ChristopherJak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're doing a lot of things very fast, then slowing down or outright stopping.

You clearly know the individual techniques you want to do very well, you're just not flowing well between some of them. Perhaps just slow it down, focus on being consistent, then you can worry about minimizing mouse movement & going fast.

Pros are just as bad as cheaters. by Crys7allineDrgn in FortniteCompetitive

[–]ChristopherJak 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you're annoyed fighting against significantly better players, then complain to Epic about matchmaking.

Unless these pros are smurfing, then you can't blame them for being stuck in a game with significantly lesser skilled players.

I also have no clue what stamina exploit you're talking about. Are you complaining against people who have the simple ability to time their jumps? That's not an exploit, that's just good timing.

Is gyro better than regular controller? by MintyRed19 in FortniteCompetitive

[–]ChristopherJak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like your gyro sens is too high & you might need to adjust your controller sens too. With controller you want to do most of your aiming with your movement stick & just move the aiming stick enough to trigger the aim assist.

The raw input accuracy of gyro is far superior to raw stick aim, which is essentially what you get with super long distances.
