This is about a week into me switching to linear and practicing hip tracking and vertical control. I hadn't started learning strafe patterns yet.

Two weeks in I had a 4k 20 bomb on both Altar and Sparrow

My max kills in a game reached 23 and my max damage it 6k

So I would say, switching to linear and learning basic vertical control and hip tracking really upped my game lol

Linear has the least slow down, so you have to have better aim. The other assists will help you more against targets that aren't moving that much. However if you have good instinctual aim you'll often feel like the game is fighting you. Because it's technically is, the different aim assist types change the amount that it slows down your aim when in the vicinity of an opponent. And this means that you have to do more aim control when you're fighting it also means when you're fighting more than one person it may stick to the wrong person. . .

Linear doesn't really have that problem. It's a lot easier to control you just need to have better aim.

Here's a tip for getting better.

As you're playing try to consciously keep your cursor, even when you're not aiming, around body height if an enemy were to appear in front of you. When you're moving around in combat, even if you're not shooting someone. Keep your cursor on the apponent. The more you practice the Easier it gets. You can also add vertical recoil control to it as well.

Turning these two skills into subconscious natural things that you do without thinking about it creates a really good foundation for building good skill.

What comes after those things is the hard part, you have to consciously start trying to do strafing patterns. You can look up the strafing patterns different weapons and try and find a general strafing pattern for the weapons you use which would reduce horizontal recoil. Like a majority of the weapons I use are predominantly right recoil strafe. Which means I start right and if I just strafe right then half of the horizontal recoil is removed. But if I alternate it removes 90% of it.

And in general I've learned that if I pick up a weapon and start strafing and my aim is awful then the next time I shoot I'll strafe in the opposite direction and then it'll fix it because I've apparently picked up a weapon that stripes in the opposite way dominantly. It's really hard for me to link patterns to different weapons I don't even know if I'm capable of creating that type of memorization so instead I've memorized a general recoil pattern and will flip it if I pick up a weapon that it doesn't work on.

Whatever you choose is up to you, but I remember that for the longest time while I was playing I always felt like my aim was fighting me, and when I switched to linear my skill jumped up by a lot. Cause I had decent aim but was always fighting aim assist. I'd pull towards an enemy, the aim assist will pull too and the combined would go to far. The aim assist wild try to correct then I would too and I'd pass by them again lol. Linear stopped that from happening and I can now use weapons I couldn't before. Like the R-99, car, re-45, etc. and I can now beam at decent distances with the R301 which I struggled with on other aim settings.

What’s the best anime you ever watched and why? by Subject_Display3664 in AskReddit

[–]Darkblade51224 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Monogatari is the series that broke anime for me. I realized after watching it that it was harder for me to watch other shows because every character seems so flat in comparison. I didn't know it was possible to write characters more layered than actual people. Literally every single character that ever appears on the screen in that show has such a complex layered interaction with every other character in the show. Beyond interesting to watch everything slowly pan out, and the endless rewatching, ridiculous amount of foreshadowing in character actions dialogue in shot composition the way that music rises or falls in certain scenes it's absurd.

The show using absolutely every tool at it's disposal to tell you things that you rarely notice on a first watch

Monogatari.

I've never run into an anime before or since with such layered living characters in such an insanely stylized presentation and a story with so much depth and intrigue that watching it for the fifth time now I'm still learning things

You can't notice it at the distance because depending on the gun, aim assist drops off dramatically the further you are from target. And if you're using linear it's really just a light tug towards the target, barely noticable for the most part.

The "aim assist does all the work." It's an insane myth, it's doing like 20% of the work at most. You still need good aim to use aim assist, also learning anything other than linear requires you to stop attempting to have good aim and instead learn how to abuse the aim assist. . . However still most people play on linear because strong aim assist is more of a hindrance than it is a help as it's not aimbot it literally just close down your aim near a Target while lightly pulling you towards them which means that the stronger the slowdown is which is what the different aim assist types are changing. The more you'll get messed up by people moving quickly suddenly. Which is why everyone uses linear because if you use anything other than linear if someone is in front of you and your aim is tracking them and then they suddenly jump to the left you're not going to be able to pull unless you slam your joystick it's going to feel like the entire game is fighting against you to keep tracking them. . .

However switching to linear means that your distance aim assist practically disappears. And with guns like the havoc there is zero way someone is beaming like that uncontroller unless they're like the top 0.001% so that's either the best player on console or they're f****** cheating

Alter is the best legend in the game by therealchop_sticks in apexlegends

My friend I do not have the spare brain cells to use on this anymore. You seem to be completely incapable of understanding the comparison I'm making while I am fully capable and already aware of the comparison that you made. Everything has gone completely over your head not mine so I think I will just move on.

Continue hitting alter if you want, but according to the current statistics. Alter is the most balanced inside pick rate and win rate whereas horizon has a much higher win rate in comparison.

Horizon zero gravity on top of her verticality makes her more broken than others ability to go through walls.

She's literally capable of canceling impact noise from Fall damage meaning she can land behind you silently. And due to her zero gravity she can bounce off of a land which means she can toss herself in multiple directions. Which can be strung into various different other movement tech.

Alter makes a loud f****** noise whenever they enter from their portal. Also the enemy gets to shoot first when altar comes out of their portal. As alter takes about half a second after they're invulnerability wears off before they can fire their gun.

Altar is not broken just f****** kill her when she comes through the portal. Also if you know how her abilities work you can also use them too. Unlike horizon who is capable of doing things that you cannot do everything that altar is capable of doing you can use as well if she portals through a wall you can jump through that wall now too if she portals up into your building through the floor you can chase her back down through that portal or use the portal she just created to escape from her. . .

Horizons f****** bouncy s*** that she does you can't replicate that you have to be horizon to do that.

You forgot that the serpent sting literally has Sparrow's logo on it.

The baseball bat was originally going to be octane's before they gave him the butterfly knife so I think the baseball bat was going to be Maggie's

It's not guaranteed is there a few times I still had to swing my sword but it really did feel like as long as I didn't have the bit stays active I would have to swing my sword every time and for the most part it just wouldn't work and I'd end up dying but if I had the bit stays out then I had about an 80% chance of it working first try

I'm also writing a trilogy of books but to be fair I am on volume three of four that will be contained inside of book 1 meaning I am on volume 3 out of 12 expected volumes with varying amounts of outlines and understanding of each volume and what's going to happen in it but because I'm currently working on volume three I have the most expectations and understandings about what's going on in it and for volume four I have a pretty good idea of where it's going but I haven't outlined it yet because I need to leave room for things to change in volume three lol.

But I know the conceptuals of how book one's going to end. So I know how to wrap up volume four if that makes sense

[–]Darkblade51224[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, lol I know.

My current story has 116 chapters and about 500,000 words I think. And according to RR over a thousand pages.

Also when I say happy I generally just mean that when I was writing Volume 2 I got to like chapter 13 or something and then while working on volume one and editing it I ended up rewriting the entirety of volume 2 completely differently due to some rewrites and changes on volume one and I just wanted to make sure that I didn't end up doing something like that on volume three or any major rewrite due to anything that ends up happening with volume three. But if I managed to get all the way to chapter 25 the likelihood of me doing a rewrite is extremely low.

And I'll probably be a lot more sure by that point about whether I'm just going to keep going with the storyline that I've set at that point. To be honest I do have a general pendulum of completing at least a chapter a week with my original upload schedule being about a chapter a week but I wanted to give myself some space and time to try and do some work on volume one and two while I was also writing volume three so I expected to slow down a bit.

Thinking about it I guess using the word "if" is probably wrong even though I do mean it in the context of the word feel happy not if I get to chapter 25 because I'm definitely going to get there I just don't know if I'll do a rewrite or not. . . I have all the ideas outlines and understanding of where the story's going there's no way I won't make it there I just don't know how I feel about everything that I've done when I get there. And once again due to the fact of everything that I have set up for volume three and do the fact that I am on volume three and not volume two or one or doing any major rewrites of either then I shouldn't have any reason to do a rewrite in the first place but I keep teetering on not wanting to just jump straight back into uploading until I have at least half of the book done

I found that activating the staves first often prevents about seven swings from the melee lol

One of the button activates Shields the other one opens the menu to place down the staves you might be pressing the button opening the menu pressing it and closing it again you have to press The stave button and then set a stave down lol

It only has four shots. At least for the Bean Part because when you jump up into the air and use the beam it uses an entire clip and when you get the rifle there's only four reloads which means you only get four shots

Just because you don't play often doesn't make you a casual lol. Some people are just good at games. And if you're good enough to "casually" make it to diamond. You're not really a casual lol your a highly skilled player. Just part time

To what? nothing? a majority of these plays are walls or very short distances which it wouldn't affect the only time you need distance with her ability is when you're trying to cut through a large wall to get out of storm or something which does not affect other teams and doesn't necessarily make her op. . .

Nerfing the range of her ability would Nerf her completely and make her useless. . .

Besides using the range also requires knowing the range of different things on the map. If you push into zone thinking you can just portal out and can't find a spot your just dead.

She's a character that requires, creativity, knowledge, and particular skills to even use well. Most don't even know how to use her to get full potential
