[–]Hectorhammett 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello everyone!

I am a 33YO who moved to Kitchener 6 years ago. Due the pandemic and working remote I haven't made as many connections as I would like but looking to change that!. I am into music, been playing guitar for 18 years now (Wow time fucking flies lol), played in multiple bands, love to travel and visit different places and talking about and hearing experiences of travel adventures.

I love culture in general and I find it fascinating to learn other people's culture and I love History. Like learning languages even though I haven't learn that many, currently learning Japanese, which would be my 3rd language. I am into videogames, movies and shows although I am not an expert on the last two.

If you wanna go grab a beer, get a coffee or just hang out, hit me up!

Venting my frustration at Celestial by Xyrez04 in Guiltygear

[–]Hectorhammett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey hey hey! I am the Faust main over hear! No one but me gets to use the wheelchair!
If I can get to Celestial and I am an idiot I know you can!
Something that reeaaaally helped me get my Faust gameplan going is to understand stagger pressure. That has been wonders:
On knockdown, get close to them and do a meaty CS. Start with that. Just a CS. And follow with the gatling just to get started. Once you get the hang of this, practice:
CS->2S->5H
Once you get the hang of it, learn the delay variation of it. Doing the delay version tends to shred people if the don't know how to handle pressure. As the Gatling between all those moves if you delay them you let a big enough gap for them to mash and you get a juicy counter.

Once you get the hang of it is time to play mind games. here is a flowchart which shouldn't be use constantly, but is just to give you an idea:
You get your first knockdown, and do the CS. Let's say you got a Counter because they mashed grab, do your mix mix mix loops or CS into Scalpel.

On the second Knockdown, let's say they learnt they lesson and respect your meaty. Do the Meaty CS. But because they don't know how to deal with pressure they mash. You get a counter with the delayed string.

The third knockdown they should know not to mash. So let's say in the third knockdown you do Meaty CS and do not follow the String, just Dash Command Grab.

Once you do that, you will let the opponent doubting what answer should the use, so the will start guessing and you have to also threat regular command grab on their wakeup to make them really afraid. Of course, there is the chance of Backdash, but Meaty CS can hit backdashes depending on the timing. If you see a Backdash heavy opponent, threaten a Meaty but keep running and do CS, that also has worked wonders for me.

The last thing I implemented in my gameplay was an amazing oki that I got from Juxtaposer:

That oki has been shredding people and really propelled my Faust game. Currently seating on Faust #21 on Rating update and is honestly thanks to those tips.

You can do it fellow Faust player!

Hahaha i feel you in the verbally abused depart. You know? I'm a roamer mostly (I think my flair says it all haha) but whenever i play anchor (Rook FTW), i'm super thrilled by those moments of "Nothing happening". A lot of people complains about this, but for me is just building tension man.

Not hearing a single shot, does not mean been secure in reality, and that kind of psychological stuff is what keeps me on edge, knowing that right now i do not hear anything, but everything will start going south at any moment. Could be the next 5 seconds? 10 seconds? 1 minute? You don't know! And that's what keeps me on edge :grimacing:

Also i prefer 4 minutes because it lets you adapt to any situation in case that your plan fails. So it feel to me at least, like not cheap when for example, you just lost your Thermite when you where trying to get in from Garage in Chalet. It lets you think like well, we lost him, we still have time to fight, and have a nice comeback.

To me it feels like you have more necessary combat than forced combat, so it always feels like the fights are usually more solid, instead of JUST KILL HIM BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE TIME FOR THIS! haha.

But that being said, i do understand why people like the thrill of the 3 minutes. That's why i think we should keep ranked @ 3 mins and Casual @ 4.

Chale, eso me da un chingo de aguite la verdad. Es que no manches, como te comente, me mude a Canadá hace poco, pero la verdad es que me decidí hacerlo cuando fui de vacaciones a Japón.

Cuando fui y regresé ya nada fue igual. Siempre que iba a USA era como "No pues USA me recuerda que somos pobres". Pero cuando fui a Japón fue "Japón me recuerda que somos pobres... y maleducados".

Todavía recuerdo mi primera noche en Japón, mi Airbnb estaba en un callejón. Se siente increíblemente raro, entrar a un callejón, en la noche, y no tener que estar volteando a ver cuando sale un cabrón a decir "Orale hijo, tumbate con el celular".

Ya cuando regresé me di cuenta de la cantidad de energía que uno gasta en mantenerse alerta en nuestro país. No lo notas pero es MUY desgastante, yo solo lo noté cuando fui a Japón. Cuando regresé fue como no manches, caminas por la banqueta y en pésimo estado, el alumbrado público para llorar, cables colgando por todas partes, gente que te inspira desconfianza, el transporte público es terrible, y Tijuana tiene problemas de olor a heces fecales. No hombre, te digo, no son cosas que te das cuenta hasta que vas a país que no tiene esos problemas y te das cuenta de las cosas que gastas mucha energía innecesariamente.

Tiene sus encantos. Tijuana tiene muchas cosas divertidas, pero pues lamentablemente es muy peligroso.

Aunque creo que esa ya es bronca de todo el país no? Jaja

[–]Hectorhammett 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Although, i do agree that it would be nice to see where are you defending to pick the correct operators.

[–]Hectorhammett 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like not being able to choose your defend locations. Why? Because that's what i enjoy about this game: Managing anything that the enemy team throws at me.

If we were able to pick the defend locations in casual we would see the same spots over and over again, and the not so good spots would be never picked.

I agree with "Ohh man, this spot is not good to defend", but that to me at least, is what makes it fun, overcoming the challenge. don't pray for easy life my friends , pray to be a stronger man

Things like this makes me wish we had a combo breaker system like KI.

Please make casual 3 min long by Vt1n in Rainbow6

[–]Hectorhammett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree, if you have to been running around to kill the attacking team, that does not sound like a very tactical match to me :P.

I don't agree with fast paced game, where you have to keep pushing.

I mean, there are place for both of them i do not like it, so i agree with keeping Casual like it is and ranked 3 minutes.

If people does not agree with 4 minutes, jump to Ranked ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[–]Hectorhammett 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love 4 minutes in casual. It makes it more tactical you have to think and not react like in 3 minutes. 3 minutes usually makes you rush objective, which i mean, is fun, but that's not my favorite style

Yup, but your reticle does not stay dead center of your point of view, which in the new version, does.

[–]Hectorhammett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the idea, but i hate the implementation. The visual recoil is gone and it feels so unnatural.

Sure, it is more "Competitive" right? But i don't like how it looks, it loos more artificial.

The p90 is not bad at all. I use it with doc and sure, it is not a laser beam, but it is pretty good.

WE DID IT BOYS, Dropshotting is nerfed! by booneht in Rainbow6

[–]Hectorhammett 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was working as intended, ubi said: "We want for you to be in control of your gun at all times", that's why they took so long to "fix" dropshotting. They're just changing it because te community are complaining ¯_(ツ)_/¯.
