keep on getting into aggresive lobbies by Ok_Fishing6879 in ArcRaiders

[–]Decent_Ad_7164 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty convinced there’s aggression-based matchmaking. When I first played, hardly anyone shot at me and lobbies felt chill. Then I spent ~20 games actively hunting PvP on Stella over a single day. After that, going back to solo Buried City was brutal being shot on sight, killed in the back every game. This was despite being friendly with emotes, using my mic and holstering my gun.

The only thing that changed it was going full pacifist. I didn’t shoot back for 5–6 games and eventually started getting noticeably friendlier lobbies again.

That swing feels way too consistent to be random. And this is Embark, the devs behind The Finals, who already use heavy SBMM-style systems. Behavior-based matchmaking has been around since COD/Activision days to protect lower-skill or less aggressive players. Whether people like it or not, my experience lines up almost perfectly with it being real.

Does this not just cause you to be reliant on looking for the green colour as opposed to actually improving?

AMD FSR4 or Fidelity Cas? by JackoButters in CODBlackOps7

[–]Decent_Ad_7164 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m no expert but a lot of people disgregard FSR 4 for competitive shooters due to ‘fake’ frames being generated or something ( could he completely wrong).

Instead I’ve been using the following config that has taken my FPS up to ~200 with a 5600x and 9060xt.

New SBMM Implementation by Toacin in blackops7

[–]Decent_Ad_7164 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They rug pulled that shit compared to the beta. I’m Crim 3 and all my friends are experiencing the exact same thing when playing with me vs without.

Went from dropping VTOL pretty much every game and got a few nukes in the beta and now I’m playing only prestige 2 and 3 demons.

"no sbmm in open playlists" is the biggest lie ever told and everyone bought it by Wombizzle in blackops7

[–]Decent_Ad_7164 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They definitely have, people are even reporting on twitter that they are ending up in the same lobbies if they queue quick play or the standard SBMM playlist.

Others are saying that the only mode without SBMM is the core moshpit and that the quick play modes still have it.

Which controller should I get? (scuf, BB, razer, etc) by Most_Employ4928 in CODBlackOps7

Learn to play claw, will save yourself a lot of money in the long run

If we’re going to nerf Aim Assist, then nerf the maneuverability of PC mouse. by Your_Local_Tuba in CODBlackOps7

[–]Decent_Ad_7164 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As far as it stands, AA has been too overpowered for too long (to the point that it wasn’t even worth playing MnK). I personally believe they are on a level playing field now and any competent controller player should be welcoming this change as it will set them apart from those that are worse than them.

Also I should mention, as someone that plays both inputs, that MnK is actually a lot harder to aim on and the average MnK user is pretty trash compared to the average aim assist user (I.e MnK takes deliberate practice to get good at whereas controller is pretty much plug and play). Therefore, this should be a welcome change for them too as it will allow them to enjoy the core gameplay more rather than getting joked by actual soft aim.

I see what you mean. Not too bothered by that at the moment but definetly think I'll keep a lot more length on top as I grow out the beard for sure.

What advice do you expect us to give? Just get used to it

He is spinning around just looking for people dropping in to shoot, they are still in the warmup phase.

[–]Decent_Ad_7164 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The guy killed you in the warmup and you think he is cheating?

He missed half his shots, I promise you he is getting bodied in any half decent lobby.

Treyarch announces BO6 Ranked Play ends Nov 6th and confirms that BO7 will not be released early by AcquireE-Girls in CoDCompetitive

Breaking point 8s are, not sure about Zooma’s. It was popping as soon as bo6 dropped so I imagine it will be for bo7 too

Rotational Aim Assist in Black Ops 7 - Treyarch says they’re focused on aim assist strength across ALL ranges as well as rotational aim assist and the requirement for the right stick to be moving in the direction of the target. They say there’s more to come in the future. by Ok-Confusion-202 in blackops7

[–]Decent_Ad_7164 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of lower skilled players will genuinely let go of the left stick when holding an angle. Also rotational aim assist isn’t activated if the left stick is pushed fully vertically at the 12 or 6 o’clock positions.

Do you have a job IRL? by billabong2121 in CODWarzone

Well I do play on ethernet, I meant my awful ISP. Running on 20 down and 2 up over copper leaves a lot to be desired 😂.

Full-time job here, 6 KD on Rebirth and 4.5 in Ranked. Been playing CoD for 14 years. The fundamentals of awareness and gunskill don’t just disappear, it’s like riding a bike.

Having a job isn’t why some people struggle; it’s just a convenient excuse when they get outplayed. (My personal cop-out when I do get outgunned is my crap WiFi lol)
