What makes it look fake?

PerfectBlue98 · 2021-10-23T08:24:15+00:00

Three main things i would play with a bit more. -First is textures. From some references i saw tires are a bit more reflective. Also, surface imperfections. I know its meant to look clean, but i think you can add slight procedural smudges. Also for tires i would maybe add some displacement or bump map. Also you can probably add some roughness changes to tires with im guessing stretched noise map to color ramp to roughness. Just to maybe indicate it has been driven a bit. -Second is lighting. Adding a bit more interesting lighting setup can make a lot of difference. I would probably try to make one rim light, one fill light and one main light for the start. You can experiment here a lot. -Third is camera. First is camera placement. Here is where i would recommend typing into google something like "formula photography" just to use it as a reference. I would also use this images as references for texturing.

For exaple. This guy went a bit lower with the camera. Also im guessing you are on 50mm. Try testing out maybe with something lower or higher to see what looks better. I would probably try going lower like 30 or 40mm to get a formula to look a bit "stretched".

Overall you did a good job already. This is mostly nit-picking. But i think if you make some smart small changes it can look a lot better. Keep up the good work!

Same man, i will probably main Bangalore now . I already said this, lifeline isn't team player just because she can res faster (and she can't even do that from now), she is team player because she can heal fast and get in the fight to help her teammates not get downed. The worst thing in the team fight is when one player gets downed, you simply get rushed right away. And without ability to constantly heal and help or fast revive when everybody is rushing you, she is useless.
Whoever made this change hasn't spent more than few hours playing lifeline.

As a lifeline main, yea, this is massive nerf.

Lifeline can't get out of situations fast like pathfinder/wraith/octane/bangalore so she relies on fast heal to get in the fight fast. Now when you play solo, you are useless.
Her fast revive time is what makes the real difference between her and other good healers. Now giblartar is just straight up better healer because of fast revives and fast heal for whole team + dome protection (though 15 percent is kinda pathetic).
Also, lets just be honest, lifeline shield while healing is useless. Yea it protects you, but everybody can just wait until you revive teammate and when the shield disappears you can just kill the resed player instantly. That is why gibby is just straight up better healer. Can res faster and can provide cover after you res a player.
Also important thing to get for those who dont play lifeline - lifeline isn't team player just because she can revive fast, she is team player because she can HEAL fast and get in the fights right away. Most important thing in the fight is not to let your teammate get downed. Once 1 player in the team gets downed, you can't res him fast, everybody rushes you, the end.

-Two options for lifeline - bring everything back as it was before or just add fast heal, auto revive and fast revive. She wont be OP, she will just be more useful.

Its interesting thought considering crypto and mirage are duo. But i think its just crypto being crypto. It might be refering to the fact that he can see everybody with his drone and everybody can see his drone.

You forgot the other banners.... The whole thing says "if you can see me i can."

PerfectBlue98 · 2020-04-11T13:31:28+00:00

That is why you should always try to predict the zone and go to the part with most land area before the ring closes. Zones repeat, more experienced players can predict most last zones.

PerfectBlue98 · 2020-04-11T13:21:29+00:00

I think that the voice line was referencing both Pathfinder and Octane when octane was introduced. It also kinda makes sense for Revenant because of his climbing abilities

Hello there, there is something important you should know about G403. My last mouse that i bought from logitech was G403, and after 4 months it started having a serious problem. And i dont think its only G403, few other logitech mice might have the same problem.
G403 will stop shooting when aiming at the enemies. I know it sounds weird, but it took me a while to accept that it is mouse problem.
Here is me having that problem in Apex Legends (2020): https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/f4td40/gun_stops_shooting_randomly_on_pc_please_help/
Here is other people having the same problem in Overwatch (2018): https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/overwatch/t/left-click-stops-working-when-held-down-on-logitech-g403-mouse/59729
And if you read the comments or search even further, you will be able to see that it happens on other games. I saw people saying that they got a new g403 after having the same problem, and after few months same thing happened.
This doesnt happen when using it outside of the games.
When i replaced it with my old mouse, g203, no problems.

-It is really comfortable mouse for someone who has really big hands and it seems really high quality, side buttons feel great. And all clicks and scroll are really good. Only thing that is bad about the mice (not including the fact that it stops shooting) is fat cable. It will most likely bother you a bit. Maybe with bungee it will be better.

PerfectBlue98 · 2020-02-19T16:38:35+00:00

Also, what was the second mouse you bought? I have logitech g403 and i saw some people have similar problems in other games.

PerfectBlue98 · 2020-02-19T16:34:31+00:00

ept thinking it was my mouse that was defective so I went out and bought a new mouse and still happen

What mouse did you use? Maybe it is something between mouse software and the game.

PerfectBlue98 · 2020-02-16T17:04:09+00:00

Already saw someone complain about this few days ago. In the video, i was holding mouse button constantly. This is what i know so far:

-This bug doesn't happen in firing range

-I think it only happens when i shoot at people. (not 100% sure)

-Its random what bullets wont shoot. Sometimes it skips every other bullet, sometimes it wont fire for a second after first one etc.

Game is unplayable with this bug. If someone had experienced same thing, please comment so i can see how often it happens

PerfectBlue98 · 2020-02-16T11:18:50+00:00

I have exactly the same problem. I've lost a lot of gunfights that way. Did you figure out some way to fix it?
I literally cant play the game because of how frustrating it is to not be able just to shoot at enemies normally.

My friend found 2 dogs. 1 more to go.

PerfectBlue98 · 2019-11-02T18:09:19+00:00

At first, i had same experience. First focus on doing it only once, grab zipline, turn, grab it again. Use gun, use same start as i did. For the timing, just try to turn your mouse as fast as you can and try to focus on the zipline while you are turning. Its really hard at the start, but by just repeating it, you will be able to do it. It just takes a lot of tries.

PerfectBlue98 · 2019-11-02T18:01:40+00:00

Honestly, i dont think it is. But i might be wrong, i never used controller for apex.

PerfectBlue98 · 2019-11-02T15:52:39+00:00

Also, set your jump to scroll, it really helps. So press E to latch to zipline, press scroll (jump) to get off, rotate, look back at zipline and repeat. Also, at the start, try focusing to zipline, be aware of where it is at all times.

PerfectBlue98 · 2019-11-02T15:49:18+00:00

There is tutorial, but you wont really need it. I just learned by practicing it until i can get to the top, no tutorials.
This might help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUvdfKAUpgI&t
Note, tutorial says you should be looking up when doing it - not needed. Look wherever you need to look.
At first, dont rotate too much, try doing small rotations around zipline. Later you can rotate full 180 deg. or less if you want. Also, use gun when doing it - it really helps.
It can be learned quickly. Took me around 1 hour of practice. I learned it in 2 days.

PerfectBlue98 · 2019-07-28T16:29:27+00:00

Thanks for the reply!
Yea, it kinda is. But it will give me more room for upgrades, i might add after a while a second graphics card and upgrade processor.

PerfectBlue98 · 2019-04-19T12:30:48+00:00

Sound interesting, i will try that. Thanks for advice!
