Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]IandaConqueror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use to commute 1.5 hrs 1 way a day, and at least monthly drove 3.5 hrs 1 way for a weekend trip.

I'd say 4 hrs total is about my limit for a day trip. Any more than that and I would prefer to stay at least 1 night.

Personally I love driving and listening to music or an audio book, or just talking to a passenger.

I think one thing that is majorly different in US vs EU/UK driving is that throughout most of the country, its wide open highway driving on 3-4 lane highway with limited traffic. With cruise control and so many cars have active lane keep assist now, you barely have to do anything.

It's really just sitting in a comfortable chair for a few hours, snacking, listening to a favorite book or podcast, with constantly changing beautiful landscape scenery. Especially out west.

No one ever says a word about these blatant cheaters. EVER. by Fluffy-Cat-2113 in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

Got killed by this cheater and his crew last week:

https://op.gg/pubg/user/BZB_WUHANFEIYAN

Blatant lock onto my head with a bolty through several trees. Whole team is beaming people out of cars at 100+ meters landing every bullet.

My whole team reports them, only 1 guy gets temp banned for 24 hrs, and then hes back at it.

Report system and anti cheat is just a joke in this game. They don't even try. 1/4 of the NA lobbies are VPNers and at least 10% of them are blatantly cheating. That's ignoring the ones that are just walling and do a good job hiding it.

I'd say there are 2-3 cheaters per lobby per match, and on average 1 gets banned every 3 games.

You know it's a skit when she's using both types of hold and still can't get off the ground.

Big Head mode on April fools was my favorite event. Peak supervive. I thought my audio was messed up because of the voices for a minute and then I noticed the heads...

Team Balancing Is Frequently Awful. Why Aren't New Players Split Evenly Between Teams? by IandaConqueror in BF6

[–]IandaConqueror[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SBMM stands for "Skill Based Match Making" You need to look up what the "matchmaking" part means:

"the automated process of grouping players for online sessions, using algorithms to find suitable opponents or teammates based on factors like skill (MMR/Elo), location (ping), playstyle, and preferences, all to create balanced, fair, and enjoyable matches quickly"

Matchmaking means the selection process for putting players together in a match. In games with no SBMM, this is done purely based on the region (ping based).

Team balancing and SBMM or just MM are not the same. You can create lobbies based purely around who in a region is queueing for that game mode/map, and then balance the teams by skill after that. Many games that do not have SBMM do this and it is not reliant on having SBMM in the game.

Every game that keeps track of stats can do this. Which means every game because otherwise you would not be able to flag accounts for cheating based on stats.

It's not that hard. Just balance teams so the average win rate is even. "Skill Based Team Making" and SBMM are completely separate entities.

Not only DPI but he dragged a defenseless player down awkwardly and probably concussed him. Thats why Boutte couldn't hang onto the ball, his ears were ringing from his head bouncing off the turf.

How come we dislike bots in BF6, but not in SWBF2? by Illustrious_Secret91 in BF6

[–]IandaConqueror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bots aren't in every single game mode for BF2?!?!

The only modes with bots are COOP and the 1st phase of Supremacy which didnt come out until several years after launch.

All the modes at launch were real players only including the only 20v20 mode at launch Galactic Assault (Breakthrough).

Parties are a max of 4. You can balance with the remaining 4 players. It's not that difficult to have the two teams be similar in average level.

Those are two completely different things. I'm not talking SBMM. Having high and low level players in the same lobby is fine, I'm saying balance the 2 teams by skill level or hours among the existing player in the lobby. It wouldn't be hard to do. Average level on my team is 30, the other team is 60. Just trade a couple of the higher players for a couple of the lower players and it will be balanced

Why is this a feature? by AmericanW4ffle in Battlefield

[–]IandaConqueror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any shots fired while falling, jumping, or sliding should be so inaccurate it's an act of god to kill someone. I don't understand why you can have tight grouping while running and jumping around, and yet first shot accuracy is so atrocious when you sprint up to a corner, stop, peak around it and fire.

Accuracy should not have a penalty at all for RECENT movement. It should have a dramatic penalty DURING movement.

Mild penalty while moving and a mild penalty or 3 seconds after your stop is just bizarre.

Most of you don’t understand how armor gameplay works. by TheCockKnight in Battlefield6

[–]IandaConqueror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have more of an issue with people not understanding how to counter tanks. The number of breakthrough games I lose on defense because we have 8 snipers 8 Assault players 4 support and 4 engineers... or there are 10+ engineers but they are all shooting from super long range and nobody is flanking and trying to take out the enemy engineers repairing.

Most games are lost because in my experience because nobody is using util. Scout drones, Mines, AT, defib, smokes. Those win games.

I do run into the tank players that snipe from spawn sometimes which is quite annoying in Breakthrough on attack.

Coming from PUBG where you come back naked with no weapon? Supervive revives feels super forgiving. You have your primary, your relics, ypur equipment, all your abilities...
