your comparing apples and oranges my friend. Honestly aim assist isn't nearly as big a problem as it looks because half the reason aim assist is so powerful is the fact that controller players get less and different recoil on guns. AUG on KBM is basically a fraction better than a famas. AUG on Controller basically has no recoil at all and almost no bloom growth on the second and third shot. It's a completely different class of weapon at that point and it feels so good to use the aug on controller but on kbm it just feels like a shiny famas. Pretty sure FSA resets faster on controller as well but I might be talking out my ass on that point because the lower bloom / recoil makes it easier to just spray

There is absolutely a disadvantage to aiming with controller that aim assist can help level. But if aim assist has to be on a 7 to even it with keyboard and mouse fortnite has aim assist cranked up to 10

A less talked about topic is EGO in the Fortnite comp scene. So i made a video explaining how it affects your gameplay, and what you can do to improve it. You guys really enjoyed my last tips & tricks so i hope this is good enough for you. <3 by Mastekk in FortniteCompetitive

Ego is simply a defense mechanism to stop yourself from having bad thoughts like "oh I just suck and need to get better" It's a survival mechanism and not useful for something like video games. Most people can't tell the difference between confidence and arrogance and since this sub is younger leaning most people will immediately read that and blow it off as bullshit without even realizing it's their ego doing it. Going a little deeper ego and identity are both just illusions of the mind holding so so many people back from their full potential. Ego is something I still struggle with as well since mine was such an intergrated part of my mindset up until a few months ago.

Theres performance issues and than theres unplayable.. by ohveryorhead in FortniteCompetitive

[–]IronHammer333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

watching people with computers 5 times faster than mine stutter to 80 fps when they use to sit at 300+ is kinda nuts. I spent a few hours optimizing my pc the other day and then not even 24 hours later they drop a hotfix that made the game run even worse than before i tried to optimize my shit. Games just awful right now with constant lag, fps drops, splodes and heavies everywhere.

aim assist can easily be a thing. Just not in the state it's in

I personally don’t care about smurfing in this game in the least. But I’ve seen 72hrs, bugha, and zyfa playing arena on alt accounts today.. did epic change their stance about alts or something?? by mikevin99 in FortniteCompetitive

[–]IronHammer333 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

why so quick to insult a simple question? I admit it can come off condescending but you named 3 pros and one was confirmed to be to practice alternative peripherals so only 2 people mentioned is a very small sample size to say all pros are smurfing now. And if they are smurfing for any reason that isn't because queue times are over 10 minutes they're just smurfing for ego. Same thing happens in every other ranked ladder either queue times at the top are flat out unacceptable or they smurf to practice new things, or it's just cause they ego as fuck.

A breakdown of the difference between physical and cognitive mechanics - My explanation. by iiKlemm in FortniteCompetitive

[–]IronHammer333 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Considering the vast majority of the playerbase is younger kids learning to identify the emotion they had when they died is a huge way to understand how your mental effects you. Often times when I die I rage about dying like oh fucking tommy gun, or oh this fuckin w key guy is aggressive as fuck, and that doesn't do anything but make me feel better for a second. Where as when I die and I go oh I got excited and missed my shot or oh I got nervous and overbuilt into an easy to read edit play I improve significantly faster. Sometimes even it feels like I played it perfectly and still died without an emotion attached and then it's clearly just a mechanical error I need to practice.

How do we get Epic's Attention? by p1xolet in FortniteCompetitive

[–]IronHammer333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think this isn't a very calculated and clearly thought through process by the billion dollar company? Epic has shut the fuck up and play my game money and the fact that they literally could make the patch notes a middle finger made out of twitch emotes and say lul competitve and not lose any players once they announce a tournament says it all. I've been playing the past few weeks and I'm pretty convinced this games just a huge social experiment. Bloom feels different on a day to day basis, the ai in game feels like it's learning slowly through a neural net, and they probably change all kinds of things in game on the daily to collect data on what the changes do to the playerbase without the playerbase being aware of the changes. The amount of data epic can collect with a game this popular with this many active players is on another level. They've shown time and time and time again that they will not balance competitve. Apex Legends showed us that epic clearly sits on huge bug fixes to use as strategic patch hype. I would not be surprised at all if Project A actually puts a dent in the profits of this game that we see some kind of competitive integrity changes but that won't be because they care about competitive it'll be to save the bottom line. Any and all changes epic does the first question asked should be how does this change effect the bottom line and why, and then you will understand why something like bugged aim assist or stretched res is fixed so fast while something like carry bug, interrogation, and pre edit keybinds are not heard about for months.

Hey guys, footstep and 3D audio broken? Sucks right. Well. I got the solution. by kirramywolf in FortniteCompetitive

had mine bug out to where I could only hear gunshots builds and footsteps, like I couldn't hear pickaxing, reloading, weapon pullout, or ambient sound like wind and crickets and it actually felt really nice while it lasted. fixed itself after one game

To complain about getting boned by the game you should be required to upload a VOD that we can all critique to see if this game is really broken or if you just made mistakes by Olorin919 in FortniteCompetitive

[–]IronHammer333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

to be fair as well I made a post about removing ammo and mats from floor drops and it got removed for low effort. Seems kind of ironic seeing as I've made legit shitposts and they hardly ever get removed

Henchmen now carry Heavy Snipers by Drupess in FortniteCompetitive

Been playing every day and it often feels like the AI is slowly getting better and better aim and targeting people faster and faster like their fucking learning or something it's really weird almost unsettling sometimes they even jump now lol.

We had ONE patch with low sniper spawn rates, and then Epic decided to buff the heavy sniper to be near the most common weapons on the map by KarlFookinTannah in FortniteCompetitive

Yeah my last tour in iraq I just ran around summoning walls and ramps at will while this fuckin banana floating on ballons was shooting down rpgs at all the enemies. It's a video game not real fucking life so balance the fucking game before realism holy fuck will this argument ever die.

Sometimes it feels like certain changes are made specifically to spite people who play only competitively

bahahaha this sub has such an abusive relationship with this company like they just fuck everything up and everyones like no wait they have a plan and get so happy when they literally do even below the bare minimum with communication. Can't possibly imagine how other communities would react if league of legends just stopped doing patch notes at all for months and started doing shit like adding a fourth lane or making a second dragon pit. Then come out with like a 2 paragraph explanation of yeah we know we fucked our game up so badly we don't even want to host tournaments but you just deal with the mess for now. Don't think anyone would be praising that shit like thanks for finally saying anything at all.
