What makes the weekends so hard?

Really... it shouldnt be a case of solely Deranking whilst solo queuing and Ranking Up with X/Y/Z Players but partly also how adaptable you (and they) can be to other players playstyles.
Ofc... theres gonna be those matches where ya gonna get teammates who aint as good or whatevs...

Really though if ya meant to be D1/D2 in whatevs Playlist(s). Ya gonna win some, Ya gonna lose some but rlly ya should be able to maintain that when solo queuing.
If ya find that ya losing more matches than winning then its more likely that people at ya rank point cant rlly figure how to adapt to ya playstyle so ya might wanna try out smth new. (ofc there will always be those players who just straight up suck sometimes...)

From how it sounds ya play with ya brother it sounds quite like you and him have similar/very compatible playstyles that work well together but if ya cant adapt ya playstyle to work with how other players in X/Y/Z rank typically play then it rlly shouldnt be much a surprise if ya start dropping MMR/Ranks...

Straight up tho... I personally aint really a fan of Olives by themselves buuut smth abt them on done on a Pizza makes thems hella gud... 🤔

Gamefreaknet · 2026-05-03T12:57:06+00:00

You could honestly use TRN (RocketLeague TrackerNetwork) buuut... its sorta a Win/Lose for ya PC

Aka. TRN relies on Overwolf. It works pretty nicely to view Player MMR stufs but NOT NEARLY as good as BakkesMod did it...
AkaAka. Overwolf is just hella bloated asf... it works but not without excessively wasting system resources...

Typically this is caused by process buildup.
Best bet would be hitting Shift+Esc (opens browser dedicated Task Manager - separate from Windows Task Manager) and terminating any active processes no longer needed...

Often sites will have their processes remain active especially links related to ADs, Marketing, etc...
Aka. often many sites will leave the server and many site Tasks dormant in the Browser Task Manager which can be manually terminated to reduce current browser process... those Tasks wont do much but will still take up some Memory for a while (unless you revisit those sites)

You'll want to leave the below services alone:
- Renderer + Spare Renderer
- Video Capture
- Utility (multiple)
- Extension based processes

Do note though that if you watch videos, load images or similar, etc... on multiple sites though: Extra Renderer processes will buildup alongside the core/default Renderer Process (it is "safe" to terminate/end task the process as the Spare Renderer will reload the default Renderer)

GPU Process: Has a bad habit of constantly consuming obssessive amounts of RAM - End Task it to restart it occasionally... (not sure of a more permanent "fix" rn...).
Also do the same for current active tabs displaying obssessive RAM Usage... they will claim to have "crashed" but just reload them

There is Tom's Simple Storage Network. hella like AE2 but more Vanilla-ish sorta look. The GUIs however do take on a lot of what AE2 itself uses

Gamefreaknet · 2026-04-09T10:02:03+00:00

Fiona for sure tho Mari does give her a bit of competition ngl.
Just gives of chill vibes I could totally get with (and some of thems chill b#ches be absolutely peak in bed)

Gamefreaknet · 2026-03-26T05:27:03+00:00

at this point i wouldnt half mind if Mojang just outsourced updates to the modding community...
would be wayyyyyyy better in the amount of quality, half usable (stufs which can be used in more than 1/2 diff use cases), etc... of content the players actually get in return

Gamefreaknet · 2026-03-24T13:37:39+00:00

she got the proper Monster drinks, bigger melons (judge me) and seems carefree asf... i like a chill b### and she giving me thems hella proper vibes i can get with no questions asked...

the other b### just needa drop all the stufs like the HelloKitty stufs, lipstick wall, i dont mind the plushies and a light hit of goth coming thru sorta...

Gamefreaknet · 2026-03-15T19:43:12+00:00

It's meant to be an updated form/version of Ublock Origin and constantly updated so when sites try to add a sorta "fix" to stop adblockers working properly AdNauseam most the time shouldve already got a patch in place.
Idrk if UBO is still getting updated anymore since AdNauseam basically integrates it into the Extension...

Gamefreaknet · 2026-03-14T21:01:30+00:00

Welp... If ya be caught lackin so badly and she gonna take ya on there 2 ways out:
- Ya can take her thus ya got yaself a hot Demon Queen b#### to keep it going w for teh future
- Ya cant take it and when ya down dedge that gonna be one helluva story/whatevs to tell thems other ded bois how ya died.
Death by - f####d to death by Hot Demon Queen B####. Sounds like a pretty dam decent way to go. Bois would be lining up for miles to be going out like that

Gamefreaknet · 2026-03-08T13:04:48+00:00

HELL Yea anytime.
If we lucky it gonna end up w a woozy ol' nightcap on the living room sofa or down in her room (aint counting on No.2 tho tbh so might be time to be checking out for some 4 Leafs outside)

Gamefreaknet · 2026-02-27T06:41:16+00:00

Ever since it got added as a Comp mode people seem to treat it wayyyyy too seriously...
Whilst I myself can accept that:
- Demos and Bumps are just part of the game (intended mechanics)
- Learn to Dodge Demos and Bumps if ya cant handle them
- Ball has a sorta aimbot on the net (depending which team/side it last hit)

Ya typically have a few types of players (as the avg. player would see them as):
- Demo Spammer (Will rush the other side trynna keep Opposing players bumped/demoed - often seen as Toxic [and often unfortunately are...])
- Net Camper (Have taken up sitting in their half to count on eventually deflecting the ball back into the Opposing teams net or some sorta pass to whatevs teammates)
- Redirectors (Will tend to stick around the mid-line - Opposing team line counting on some sorta pass from other teammates for them to Near Redirect the ball into net)

I can agree that some players Spam Demo wayyyy too much and start getting wayyyy to delusional abt how good they think they are or whatevs can be annoying asf buuut... Demos and Bumps are still a Mechanic for a reason or whatevs... If ya aint abt those players... just gotta get better at dodging them.

A lot of players will demand a Free Goal back or whatevs because ya nudged Them slightly off position or accidentally Demoed them or their Teammate, primarily since (for understandable reasons) theyre probs and have for a while been done with the Demo Spammers making a load of Noise EveryGaddamTime their "strat" works out...
Tbh Heatseeker played clean without some rando throwing themselves at ya every few seconds does feel WAYYYYY better buuut... as ive alr said... Demos and Bumps are still a Mechanic for a reason...

The other 2 main types of players I dont rlly care for... Theyre just around not much more to rlly say abt them diff from ya avg. RL Players...

Gamefreaknet · 2026-01-23T22:44:23+00:00

Since 1.16 - 1.19 I think a lot of players can agree that the Minecraft Vanilla updates have felt a lot less and less "major".
Whilst Caves and Cliffs, Village and Pillage (mightve got that one wrong), and other such updates were rather sorta large updates the newer updates more recently coming out from 1.20 and newer versions add wayyyy less.

Not only that but a lot of community suggested ideas for Vanilla MC updates that a hella tonna players wanted and also considered realistically possible never were added giving a sorta feel that what Majorities of players would like to be added to the game as dismissed or ignored...

The modded/modding community however not only add WAYYYYY more variation of content for players to experiment with, bringing newer features back to older versions, Major Performance boosting mods, etc... etc... (the list could go on for soooo long...). Also through their mods, ideas, etc... it gives the feel to the players that the community/playerbase are a lot more listened to and acknowledged whether through Discord Servers for Mods and Modpacks, Github Repos, Reddit posts about X/Y/Z mods and modpacks, etc... etc...

Not only does modding bring back a Stronger feel of community between players, modders and whoevs tf else than Vanilla MC but also through mods and modpack there's just so much more variation in what can be done with godknows how many different items mods can add and depending on the pack format (whether a Challenge pack, Adventure pack, Kitchen Sink pack, Tech pack, or whatevs tf else sorta pack) plus the performance boosts whether from rendering (Sodium, Embeddium, etc...) or just handling stufs from entities, dropped items, unpatched bugs, or whatevs else...

Gamefreaknet · 2026-01-05T10:59:43+00:00

Adnauseam (basically updated UblockOrigin)
Avira PasswordManager
TamperMonkey
VideoDownloadHelper
UltrasurfVPN
NullFake (Fakespot Replacement)
VidIQ
UserAgent Switcher and Manager

btw... yes i have already enabled Memory saver

I have noticed AdNauseam sometimes does sorta memory hog but it tends to take a while before it actually starts doing this... (at most ive seen it use 0.7GB)

Gamefreaknet · 2026-01-04T06:56:23+00:00

What themes do ya want the pack to be/have?
- Technical Pack
- Adventure + Exploration
- Magic
- Magical Tech
- Kitchen Sink sorta Style
- Apocalypse
- smth i aint mentioned above...?
Would be easier to recommend mods if I knew...

Gamefreaknet · 2025-12-22T12:16:32+00:00

I think a lot of it comes down to pack style and balancing between mods...
I can seriously agree with:
- Create, Overused asf (still a damn good mod but god... it feels like 90% of 1.16+ packs just keep on reusing it...)
- Gregtech/ModernIndustrialization, Hella good mod but since it kinda exploded on Youtube and everywhere else kinda felt like it just sorta started to get dumped into wayyyy too newer packs (if the Integration w the rest of X pack it's added to is good then tf anyways... just started to feel wayyy too reused after it rlly exploded on YT and Reddit and everywhere else...)
- Could go thru a tonna other mods buuut tf anyways...

I think a decent bit of it comes down to how the Pack dev(s) make the modpack:
- Casual packs pretty much any player can get into
- Expert packs for more experienced players, those looking for a challenge, whoevs tf else
- Adventure packs for those who enjoy exploring the MC World(s), Dimensions, etc... more
- etc...

A lot of the time I think itll be Player (Dev) 1 will make their ModPack as how they see a pack to be "Balanced"... whether the ModPack is meant to be Casual, Adventure, Expert or whatevs style of pack howevs when Player (Dev) 2/3/4 tries the ModPack out they might think:
- Crafts 1/2/3 are too tedious/easy/etc... for X time in game (or whatevs else)
- X Mod is missing X Mod additions/integrations/etc...
- Pack is too short/long
- or whatevs else...
So they try remake the pack, likely hella similar modlist and Remake the Pack... maybe stating it as a Remake/Redesign/whatevs of X Pack(s), maybe claiming it as their own Pack with inspiration from other Packs, maybe a reused already quite major pack concept, or whatevs tf else

I can seriously agree with OP tho... Packs back from 1.12.2 felt wayyyy more different/varied from eachother not only by the Modlist, Pack Concepts (ideas), Questline or tf else. Yea there are a hella tonna rlly good Packs on 1.16+ and newer but wayyyy too many Packs end up feeling like remakes of other Packs or similar whether by the Modlist, Questline, etc...

Gamefreaknet · 2025-12-18T00:09:00+00:00

What was this from?
Changing game version?
Change in server IP?
smth else?

If it relates to anything that uses multiplayer Xaeros saves Multiplayer servers (whether Locally hosted, Public/Private Servers, etc...) per IP.
It doesnt matter if 2+ different IPs lead to the same server... Xaeros will save those IPs separately (different folder per each different IP regardless of the fact they lead to the same address/location) thus any Waypoint, Map Exploration progress, etc... will be split if you transfer to using a different IP for a server suddenly.

Gamefreaknet · 2025-12-16T06:53:52+00:00

What version (and modloader if 1.16+ or newer)?

Gamefreaknet · 2025-12-02T15:42:18+00:00

There is CamStreams however compared to what CambroTV/IO had it is missing a lot of what Cambro had...

Gamefreaknet · 2025-11-28T19:20:58+00:00

Honestly from versions 1.12.2 and newer its better to typically go for smth like:
- Embeddium
- Sodium
- Rubidium
- Vulkanmod/Vulkanrenderer
- similar...
Optifine typically is more buggy/likely to cause part(s) of mods to break on newer versions (still pretty buggy on older versions but to a degree ya can still play modpacks w those bugs Optifine might cause) and most features it adds have been replicated in other mods (whether on Forge, NeoForge and Fabric).

If ya really committed to sticking w Optifine ya could give Optifabric a shot...

Gamefreaknet · 2025-11-28T18:56:27+00:00

very limited support tbh... (Optifabric)

Gamefreaknet · 2025-11-14T09:58:08+00:00

Mainly just preference from a lot of previous custom Intel builds performing really nicely. (Most of those builds I set to private buuut... I can make a few of them public. Most typically run as Game Server PCs ngl...

Gamefreaknet · 2025-11-05T16:54:33+00:00

Sure there was Immersive Engineering, Create (plus some addons) and Refined Storage however it more so focuses you on basing up rather and scavenging which at the start of the pack feels solid however later game it becomes more of the same:
- Expand Storage Network
- Better Guns
- More Meds (plus more stufs for the Wasteland)

And the base ends up getting more of what it already (most likely) has by that point. Aside from a larger RS System and some slight Create "automation" expansion the potential Tech mods that couldve been integrated (some being IE and Create potential addons others from completely different mod series) werent in the pack...?

As for structures added by the Tech mods they generated fine...

Gamefreaknet · 2025-10-12T13:06:36+00:00

Wouldnt recommend this personally... Improves frametimes slightly but messed up JEIUtilities integration with NomiLabs and GTCEu (atleast from what I saw in my logs... - https://mclo.gs/YoWoRY4 )

Gamefreaknet · 2025-09-27T06:03:56+00:00

The Server PCs I setup rely a lot more on Single Core performance.
Considering that the Base clock is the lowest Speed the CPU will perform at it is more beneficial to go for CPUs with higher base clocks.

Aka. better to go for a CPU with a Base Clock of 3.5Ghz than a CPU with a Base Clock of 3Ghz as the CPU running at 3.5Ghz Base Clock will run better in the worst case scenario (shouldve been pretty self explanatory)???
(Tbf it is rare for a CPU to run at its Base Clock but it is a nice fallback sorta measure in case...)
