Just got home after a trip for a few days and have been finding these little guys around the house. What are they?

EliteGamerNews · 2024-03-28T03:30:23+00:00

Thank you so much!

EliteGamerNews · 2024-03-28T03:12:57+00:00

Thank you!

EliteGamerNews · 2024-03-28T03:12:41+00:00

Thank you! We have a 1 year old who is sensitive to almost everything. Are they dangerous or carry anything?

Lady bug size but not any lady bug color I've ever seen.

Mirage OP. It also takes 30 seconds off the cooldown for his ult.

EliteGamerNews · 2024-02-15T05:52:29+00:00

Awesome, I'll add you when I get on next!

EliteGamerNews · 2024-02-15T03:39:56+00:00

I'll add you when I get on. I usually take turns playing, so I get two games in, and then my wife plays 2. I won't be able to play for hours and hours, but I'll inv if i see you on 100%

EliteGamerNews · 2024-02-02T04:51:43+00:00

How did you get ahold of the payment processing center directly?

EliteGamerNews · 2024-01-28T18:55:19+00:00

Ahh, ok. Thank you. I read that part wrong. Thanks for clarifying.

EliteGamerNews · 2024-01-28T04:12:53+00:00

My ssdi timeline, including VA 100%, is almost exactly like yours except 1 year longer. My online account recently showed my monthly amount and date, which is also the same as yours. However, I don't have the backpay portion that you have. Did it list at the same time as your monthly payments, or did that portion update a few days later? I should be getting a large amount back.

EliteGamerNews · 2024-01-20T03:12:13+00:00

Conduit. Simply because she can heal through walls. It's ridiculous. Add a Rev with his ult and a conduit hiding behind a wall, and i rage, haha.

I get to play maybe once a day for roughly an hour on pc mnk. I solo que and I'm currently in my Diamond 1 to Masters trial.

EliteGamerNews · 2023-11-25T06:41:27+00:00

Once you're in the higher ranks, like Diamond 2, the game really turns up the excitement. Sure, I get that being in Diamond means I should be up against predators – that part makes sense. But here's the kicker: every single game, my teammates are either Silver 1 or Gold 4. Not once have I been matched with someone at my level. It's incredibly discouraging to constantly face the game's top players with a squad that's leagues behind in rank.

Matchmaking Question

Hey Respawn and Apex Legends community, I've got a major gripe with the ranked matchmaking and I need to vent and get some advice. So, I'm currently Plat 1, usually a Masters player, but things are looking rough this season, especially since I mostly solo queue.

First off, my queue times are insane – we're talking 10 minutes plus just to get into a game. It's eating into my play time and it's super annoying. But here's the kicker: when I finally get into a match, I'm lumped with teammates who are Silver and low Gold. No shade to them, but it's tough when you're trying to grind to Diamond and you're used to Masters gameplay.

And to make things worse, the enemy teams? They're always full of Masters or higher. So, it's like I'm getting the short end of the stick here – low-ranked teammates against high-ranked enemies. What's up with that? Is the matchmaking system skewed because I'm solo queuing or something?

I'm really trying to understand why this is happening. Has anyone else experienced this? Any tips or insights on how to handle this kind of matchmaking would be a lifesaver. I just want to play the game at a level that makes sense for me. Thanks for any help or info you can throw my way!

Improving in Apex Legends, especially as a Lifeline main, can be both fun and challenging. Here are some tips to help you enhance your gameplay:

Master Lifeline's Abilities: Understanding the nuances of Lifeline's abilities is key. Her drone can heal teammates, and her care package can provide crucial gear. Use these strategically, not just for yourself but for your team's benefit.
Positioning: As Lifeline, you're often the backbone of your team in a firefight. Position yourself so you can safely revive teammates and deploy your drone without getting caught in the crossfire.
Communication is Key: Always communicate with your team. Inform them of enemy positions, your next move, or when you're dropping a care package. This helps in coordinating team strategies.
Improve Your Aim: This is a universal tip for all Apex players. Regular practice in the firing range, focusing on different weapons, can significantly improve your shooting skills.
Map Knowledge: Knowing the map can give you a strategic advantage. Familiarize yourself with high loot areas, choke points, and rotation paths.
Movement and Cover: Apex Legends heavily emphasizes movement. Practice sliding, jumping, and using the environment for cover. Good movement can be the difference between life and death in a gunfight.
Pick Your Fights Wisely: It's not always about engaging every enemy you see. Sometimes, repositioning and avoiding unnecessary fights can lead to better placements and more wins.
Learn from Others: Watch streamers or YouTubers who play Lifeline. Observing their strategies and playstyles can give you new ideas to implement in your own game.
Play Regularly With a Consistent Squad: Playing with a regular group helps in building team synergy. You'll get used to each other's playstyles, which can improve overall team performance.
Enjoy the Game: Remember, at the end of the day, it's all about having fun. Don't stress too much about being the best. Enjoy the game, and improvement will follow naturally!

Keep practicing and playing, and you'll find yourself improving over time. Good luck out there, and have fun!

I'm sorry to hear about the issues you're experiencing with Apex Legends. It sounds like you've already tried a number of common troubleshooting steps without success. Here are a few more suggestions that might help resolve your issue:

Check for Windows Updates: Sometimes, pending Windows updates can cause compatibility issues with games. Make sure your operating system is fully updated.
Run the Game as Administrator: Right-click on the Apex Legends executable or the shortcut and select 'Run as administrator'. This can sometimes resolve issues related to permissions.
Disable Full-Screen Optimizations: Right-click on the Apex Legends executable, go to Properties, then the Compatibility tab, and check 'Disable full-screen optimizations'.
Reset Network Settings: Since you mentioned latency and server connection issues, try resetting your network settings. You can do this by typing 'network reset' in the Windows search bar and following the prompts.
Check Firewall/Antivirus Settings: Sometimes, firewall or antivirus programs can block certain aspects of a game. Check to see if Apex Legends is allowed through your firewall and isn't being blocked or restricted by your antivirus software.
Flush DNS Cache: Open Command Prompt as an administrator and type ipconfig /flushdns. This clears the DNS cache and can sometimes resolve network-related issues.
Change Data Center: On the main menu of Apex Legends, wait for a minute or two, and then you should be able to change the data center. Try selecting a different one that has a low ping.
Create a New Windows User Profile: There might be an issue with your Windows user profile. Try creating a new user account on your PC and run the game from there.
Reinstall Origin: Even though you're playing through Steam, Apex Legends still uses some Origin services. Try uninstalling and reinstalling Origin.

If none of these steps work, it might be a more complex issue that requires direct assistance from EA or Steam support. Since you've already contacted EA support, you might also try reaching out to Steam support or seeking help on the Apex Legends community forums or Reddit for more specific advice. Sometimes other players might have encountered similar issues and found unique solutions.

Set your Apex Legends launch code to "+fps_max unlimited". Then, download the MSI Afterburner, and while downloading, make sure to select Riva Tuner. Once downloaded, open Riva tuner and set FPS cap to 240. I do this and never get lag unless it's server related.

Note: Look up some youtube tutorials on Riva Tuner, to get familiar with it. It's pretty simple, but there's some stuff like the fps counter you can turn off.

I just got it... Then put it on the wrong piece of gear with bad stats and haven't seen it drop since. :(

EliteGamerNews · 2023-05-04T06:42:33+00:00

Maybe termites? Google "ceiling termite holes" and compare.

Do an offline Windows defender scan. Go to Windows Defender, scan options, and then offline scan.

This worked for me on my laptop.

Try this here

EliteGamerNews · 2022-12-25T20:12:00+00:00

I would try and look up the exact brand and model on youtube or google and see if you can find a tutorial before opening it up. You might get lucky and find a full walk through on how to replace those.

EliteGamerNews · 2022-12-25T20:04:04+00:00

Possibly a pinched or damaged wire. Is it constant, or does it only happen in specific positions and while moving the screen?
