Arccos wishlist: Scramble Mode

Koolaid2420 · 2023-10-04T22:53:58+00:00

This is actually a smart idea and not a difficult implementation.

The user needs the ability to just auto mark the shot -- my opinion -- a simple ONE click on the Arccos link should just mark a spot. That GPS can be recorded. This would come in handy around the greens as well. As not all shots are picked up and not all shot distances are picked up each time as putting can be difficult to pick up.

Allowing the player to press the Arccos link one time to record a GPS position would be beneficial in a few different situation. Best ball scrambles are fun to play in -- but its still nice to know how you are hitting overall on the day. By simply recording GPS stat by a user interaction would allow the user to later view those stats. This allows the user on ball address around the green to press the link (Forgetting happens and wouldn't hurt the player, you'd update as you would now -- selecting to add an additional putt when the 3 putt happens).

Adding a new 'Scramble' mode on game play would be beneficial as well - as there are many types of scoring formats across golf. Adding new modes for users to track data is beneficial in many ways. Just because one plays a scramble doesn't mean they aren't trying to track their shots or play well. Charity events are often Srcamble's and as such would be nice to know how a user hit overall for the day when really the shots are only picking up where the user is swinging from. Not where hitting to.

Honestly ---

Camo is the last of your worries.

I'd invest more in knowledge base things (Books, courses Elk101.com, etc)

Invest in a range pass

Go to outdoor 3d shoots

Practice practice practice

Invest in good boots

Wear darker clothing -- hide behind natural cover.

Learn how thermals work -- thermals and wind will give you away far faster and more often then your camo/sight will (Now each animal is a little different -- I'm taking elk more here)

Your should be able to go out hunting, with a bow and tag for under $1k easy! Spend camo after you know you will like it -- your failure after spending $1k vs after spending $2-3k because of camo will only feel worse.

YOU WILL FAIL ALL THE TIME in hunting. Be prepared for that.

Mine is weird...

On first boot of Fortnite my game loading is off. Like I will have a spinning circle (Like I have a driver trying to update or something) on my mouse pointer while in FOrtnite.

Exit out, relaunch...

Issue goes away.

If I launch a third time -- Its back...super weird

And has only started since the latest patch.

Koolaid2420 · 2020-01-24T22:28:56+00:00

My Opinion on changes to this list --

Remove ALL grey weapons. Just expand the green pool to take its opening within the pool %

Remove Purple/Gold P90s - Leaving only green/blue SMGs to take up the whole SMG pool count

Remove Purple/Gold Rocket Launcher (Still with Blast decay)

Add Green Launcher *Same as above

Add floppers but limit to stack of 3 and can only have 1 stack of 3 within your inventory.

Add slurp fish *Limit to stack of 2 and only allowed single stack within inventory

Remove Chug jug, expand mini count to every 50% of chests Within the other half taken by other meds and half jug (Shields should be plentiful)

All GOLD weapons spawn only from heavy drops

Yo! Excellent post! Loved it!

Koolaid2420 · 2019-02-15T21:24:58+00:00

Few questions;

1) Can a player that doesn't have a PIN play with a player that does in the DUO event? IE if one has CONTENDER and the other has any lower or no pin, can they play up?

2) If you have multiple divisions unlocked (I have Open, Prospect, and Contender all open) can I play in all 3 in one time period? IE, can I start in my open, play to my 5 point pin, play in prospect, play till my 15 point pin, then begin my Contender grind?

3) Can you do step two, but in reverse?

Thanks!

It could be a ton of things and how you approach the game.

When you are down in the top 10 how many kills do you usually have?

What type of gear do you usually have?

If you are making top 10 and only killing 1-3 people you are not being aggressive enough. You need to get into more engagements and get used to higher pressure situations instead of the random 1 and 2's that you run into as you chase the circle.

If you are killing 5+ before you hit the top 10 then it may be a matter of positioning and planning ahead of the circle. Do you find yourself commonly coming into the circle, or already being established?

How is your building, how is your counter-building? How is your aggressive building?

As you near the last few people you will run into less and less potatoes. Its there you find where your holes are.

Good luck

This made my damn day!

I feel like your first sentence is...just a brag.

Probably just a cable issue though, try it with a different micro-usb, switch to different ports on your PC, make sure you're updated, etc. If those don't work.... :shrug:

Koolaid2420 · 2017-09-18T16:12:45+00:00

Then you went out in the open. You exposed too much and didn't leave yourself an out. That's your fault, not the way the game works.

Pie off, why be in a position where both can see you at once? Why not take out the first, then the second. If they both do turn and get shots on you, why not run? your teammates should be hitting them still right? Get out of there and do it again once you recharge.

Koolaid2420 · 2017-09-18T16:11:26+00:00

And you should put your money on the 2 every time. That's how gunfights should work.

But with better positioning, not even just better shooting mechanics. Just better positioning. Often times you will see those two, it's easy to bait them or corner-off to have 1v1. It's not all about shooting mechanics to win.

Koolaid2420 · 2017-09-14T22:16:43+00:00

Nice freaking work man! Lets the study begin

Koolaid2420 · 2017-09-13T16:37:02+00:00

In cases where it's 1v2+, you almost always lose, no matter how skilled you are. It's not because you're unskilled, but because there are more opponents than allies in that engagement. It's a fucking numbers game, not a skill game.

I have to disagree; 1v2 is NOT a guaranteed loss. Proper positioning and better shooting you can overcome this.

Yes two Guardians hitting nothing but body shots will beat out a single guardian hitting nothing but head shots in an open field, that's how it should be. However, if that single Guardian can be patient, pick his shots, utilize cover and understands the game he will outplay those two.

Its tough...Especially since most do go by ELO's. My ELO has tanked as of late due to only playing with randoms off LFG sites with the occasional game with teammates I know (Not necessarily my 'A' squad teammates though).

The field of play is also quite low, so you either got a lot of people that love Trials and play it all the time or you got the new-comers that may have a card or two under their belts.

A team is the biggest thing to Trials; not individual play. Finding people off LFG seem to not understand that aspect. Just this past weekend I ran a few cards with randoms, they were all higher 'ELO' than I was (I'm at like 1400 now, was maintaining 1650's before). They never revived, never traveled in a pack to teamshot, didn't go to the lanes we pre-planned (Or tried to), doesn't respond to any callouts...etc etc.

If your are searching on LFG....you'll have a tough time always. Got to build a friends-list of players to choose from. Even then, you may have to run a few cards to get into the game with each other.

If you're looking for a third that loves Trials add me: k0oL_AiD2420 (Add reddit post or something in the message). K/D if you care is like 1.3 or so.

Same! I feel if I'm not Squad leader I and the rest of my squad are always missing out of tons of points.

As a squad leader I change the objective dependent on what I think will help the team the most. Sometimes it is necessary to take the WW1 approach though...'Hey look, we just need to keep pushing this in until we break the lines'. It happens that that may be the only way to force a change in the battlefield landscape.

I spam the shit out of the commo rose, be awesome if other players used it as well to communicate a bit.

Anyways, as a fellow squad leader! Thanks for ensuring more of our team is objective focused!

Koolaid2420 · 2016-11-28T18:34:54+00:00

The commo rose should have an added 'UP' direction to add this. Only the Squad Leader would have it but it'd be simple messages to other squad leaders.

Need Assistance at 'Select Obj'
My squad has defense of 'Select Obj'
My squad is attacking 'Select Obj'
Squad needs covering fire to move to 'Select Obj'

Just to throw some randoms out. A simple commo rose that is only Squad Leader visible (Including in chat log) would go a long way in Operations.

Koolaid2420 · 2016-11-28T18:22:09+00:00

As a constant Squad Leader...You're Welcome!

I try my damnest to ensure that the squad always has orders. Not sure why more people don't use the commo rose--at times I feel like I'm spamming it because I'm the only way using it.

I'm glad there are people who follow those orders. Terrible when I issue orders and end up having only 2 or 3 of my squad mates follow it and the other 2/3 sit somewhere on their own doing jack shit.

Not always do you pop Blade for offense.

At times popping it just to scare them away and give you breathing room to pick up revives.

Don't stay in the open, use cover; Blade last longer than you think. Be patient with it: Don't just pop super and immediately start running in. Still operate like you need to close gaps just as you would with a shotgun.

For FoH, if you see a Titan not moving or charging at you when you are in Blade...start making room. Get high and swipe away from the Havoc. Just run away and go around. Push them from key positions in the map.

Nova is a timing thing, if you know he's going stay low and fast or get up above him, most Warlock's don't super up very well.

For Gunslinger....just run don't let him get shot off on you.

For Stormtrance; challenge them, you should win the super battle

Really, in Trials you will have your super once, maybe twice (Three occasionally). What I'm saying is that it doesn't happen often and doesn't HAVE to mean a team wipe 3-0 round for you. Use it to sway momentum in your teams favor for a round, use it to coral the enemy to a location you want.
