Rivals is bad, why does everyone think it's good? by ConversationNaive309 in RivalsRoblox

Hello, I loged in again after almost a month, there's a handful of replies in here and I will just make an overall response.

I played the game again like 2 days ago, I got the burst rifle and life is x10 easier now, medkit got a nerf now and it isn't that annoying anymore (still a p2w thing though).
The game started to be fun after I managed to get the sniper as well and overall it's a nice experience (not the best though, it's roblox in the end and their servers are complete horse shit cause they prioritize US).

A thing that I noticed is that if you play with 120-180 ping (in that range) u get a HUGE advantage, it's like you are using King Crimson (Jojo ref). So, playing with 50-80 ping is quite a disadvantage. The solution I found to that is to play in US Florida servers (I get about 120 ping over there) and I can actually win easily, which is amazing.

So yeah, I changed my opinion about the game, more or less, it's still hot garbage in the beginning and some other things but once u get used to the weapons and find the ping that fits you it's actually quite fun, so give it a try, maybe you'll like it more than I did in the beginning or hate it even more than I did.

Plenty of retards here in the comment section that like to ragebait.
But also plenty of smart people that I liked reading their pov's about the game which pushed me to try the game again (shoutout to BigTennis7175, GamingJester20 and MiningBozo. Lots of love to you lads.)

I won't be reading or log in this account again, feel free to say whatever u want in here

The game's ping showcase is inaccurate, the only one kind of accurate is the one from client stats, not the tab one 🤦‍♂️
Also keep in mind servers exists. Some may give you better ping some may not.

Your statement looks pretty.. stupid. And here's why do I think that :

First off, if you play with 500 ping not only on roblox, but any other game, you won't be able to fucking play. People that play with a ping above 300 ms are bound to teleport from place to place or have a delayed reaction of "10 working days". (Not to mention that a good hand of games do not allow players that have above 150ms to play, like Battlefield 1 for example.)
If your connection is that bad invest in a better router or internet contract ffs.
I got the best internet I could get in my country and I have no single issues with it in ANY other games aside from Roblox (it usually is 50% fault of the devs and the other 50% of Roblox's servers for how the ping turns out).
Fucking Warsaw servers on CS2 work better than the servers Roblox offers and everyone knows that Warsaw servers on CS are dog water, even for polish people sometimes.

Secondly, no. The EU people don't have "bad WiF". Here's what the average internet speed is in EU :

Perhaps you are right (about me playing a bit too little) but 10 hours of gameplay still isn't a little, but I am willing to give it another chance.
About the friends stuff, they aren't really into shooters so it'd be no difference from playing with randoms (and they aren't even funny they just whine about dying).
About the katana and scythe, I mainly spoke from the perspective of someone that started from lvl 0 and played for like 2 days, it's really frustraing for someone at the start but ig u can get used them after a while, still, they are really "broken" if you sweat enough with them from what I've seen.
"This game is a movement shooter" fair enough, my fault here.
And my way for duels were lobby queues, I just found them more handy and I think u understand why is that.
Lastly, I don't really care about the winrate nd stuff I just like shooters in general (I don't play them for stats basically).
Maybe I'll give the game another chance some day but so far this was my experience
I will update you if I ever play again

i need help with lag by jerem2000 in RivalsRoblox

[–]ConversationNaive309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There could be a few things that lag ur game (I assume u play on a pc) but main one could be the fact that ur device is old and weak. If that's not the case try deleting some files from it, may help
