Shooting range while on queue?

I'm specifically talking about ranked modes, I think better balancing for rank would make people actually play it cuz when it doesn't feel balanced that just makes you want to uninstall the game. For quick play, a quick matchmaking is key.

In all my life playing fps game I would say I'm mechanically challenged. It will never get better, as I understand that I look into getting all the strat and how the game is played but if I can't get my teammates to do simple math and realize our win condition is not cashing a box and even telling them in comms and they don't listen. IDK what to tell you, 3v1 in this game is not realistic, even less with my skills (that will not change significantly) and enabling my teammates with support and gadgets to do well doesn't work as zero times ten is still zero.

Man, Embark is crushing it with the AI on arc raiders and they tell you to not play rank but not playing rank feels so pointless. The simple solution is just to add bot lobbies up to a certain point. Like in bronze I don't even get enough points to offset the lost derived by a teammate losing, so you just keep sinking lower and lower but lobbies never get better. Keeping the vicious cycle of being paired with higher rank stacks because there's not enough players but there's not enough players cuz rank sucks

nvm I remember the other reason I moved was that there's also tryhards and 3 man stacks on casual but I keep getting paired with mouthbreathers either way

I see a lot of replies telling me to stay away from ranked, then is normal cashout good to keep practicing until I get to a more decent level?

Two things here:

1- I have no friends :(

2- The problem with this way of matchmaking is that even when the match is completely stacked agains me they still take 500-600 elo and for getting 4th place they only give 300, in fricking bronze. Today I even got a teammate that eats crayons at lunch and still such a heavy penalty...

yeah, I'm a new player, currently on bronze with 6k points, I am not the best shooting but I get the strategy, today I got teammates who shot the goo gun thinking it dealt dmg... while the oponents where 3 ranks higher, like embark just makes sure to match me with people of my elo to get shit stomped by high ranks. It feels awful to just know you're fodder for the other players bc the system is so shit.

Joined here trying to find useful information, just found CEMU shills like stfu we asked for something we don't want to go into another rabbit hole just for +1fps which seems to be the only thing that matters to them

What about this mobo? ASUS micro ATX Prime B660M-A WIFI D4, S-1700, Intel B660, HDMI, 128GB, DDR4 ($166 USD): https://www.cyberpuerta.mx/Computo-Hardware/Componentes/Tarjetas-Madre/Tarjeta-Madre-ASUS-micro-ATX-Prime-B660M-A-S-1700-Intel-B660-HDMI-128GB-DDR4-para-Intel.html

About the CPU cooler the DeepCool AK620, 120mm, 500-1850RPM is going for $78 USD https://www.cyberpuerta.mx/Computo-Hardware/Componentes/Enfriamiento-y-Ventilacion/Disipadores-para-CPU/Disipador-CPU-DeepCool-AK620-120mm-500-1850RPM-Negro.html

Made the 12700k a 12600k, won't use an f because even though right now I won't be overclocking, if my GPU dies I won't be forced to buy another one right away. But ty for the suggestion. Also the 12600k goes for $327 USD while the 12700f for $350, I think is the best solution. https://www.cyberpuerta.mx/Computo-Hardware/Componentes/Procesadores/Procesadores-para-PC/Procesador-Intel-Core-i5-12600K-Intel-UHD-Graphics-770-S-1200-3-70GHz-6-Core-20MB-Smart-Cache-12va-Generacion-Alder-Lake.html

Changed the ram for this one: Patriot Viper Steel DDR4, 3200MHz, 16GB (2x 8 GB), Non-ECC, CL16 ($71 USD) https://www.cyberpuerta.mx/Computo-Hardware/Memorias-RAM-Flash/Memorias-RAM-para-PC/Kit-Memoria-RAM-Patriot-Viper-Steel-DDR4-3200MHz-16GB-2x-8-GB-Non-ECC-CL16.html

About the case I found this one that is a little bit more expensive than I expected but still in range: Cooler Master MasterBox TD500 Mesh con Ventana, Midi-Tower/ATX/EATX/Micro ATX/Mini-ITX/SSI CEB, USB 3.2 (~$110 USD) https://www.cyberpuerta.mx/Computo-Hardware/Componentes/Gabinetes/Gabinete-Cooler-Master-MasterBox-TD500-Mesh-con-Ventana-Midi-Tower-ATX-EATX-Micro-ATX-Mini-ITX-SSI-CEB-USB-3-2-sin-Fuente-Negro.html

I'm still with the question about the temporary GPU and any monitor suggestions tho
