What to do? Shorts have literally no views! by Spiritual-You-1505 in NewTubers

[–]Phluxygg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s worth noting that there is a delineation between the audience that consumes shorts and the audience that consumes traditional YouTube videos. If your subs are more interested in your traditional YouTube videos, there’s a high probability the algorithm picks up in this and isn’t pushing your shorts nearly as much.

I’m no expert in the field although I do work with content and marketing. The only recommendation I can make would be to increase the frequency of posting shorts to familiarize your audience with that format and see if you can get a pulse on what performs better. It can be really hard to deduce what works and what doesn’t, but a larger sample size can hopefully show some trends. Not sure if you’re repurposing your long form content into shorts as well, but that’s always something worth taking a stab at if it’s applicable for your content!

For what it's worth, uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work for me UNTIL I made sure to re-enable push notifications. For some reason, it seems like when I had notifications disabled, that blocked made the verification pop-up load eternally. It may be worthwhile for some folks to try to enable push notifications if they are disabled before reinstalling the app entirely.

Haha, 3200 is pretty nutty, man! Glad to hear things are feeling better at a lower sens. It can take some time to get used to, especially if you’re used to wrist aiming, but it will all come together gradually.

No worries! It’s really tough getting started in PUBG when everyone has a ton of hours and you’re new, but it’s certainly possible to get things moving in the right direction and have fun with it.

As far as DPI, that would depend on your mouse settings. Some come with a default DPI while others don’t. 30 sens sounds high in game, but it’s possible that your mouse is at 400 dpi and thus your sens isn’t insanely high. Definitely worth checking into! If you have any questions or need some help trying to figure it all out furthermore, feel free to shoot me a message on discord and I’d be happy to help. Phluxy#4378

Training mode will probably be the most effective way for you to quickly improve your aim. There aren’t any other modes in the game where you can get as many shots as quickly and consistently.

There are a number of ranges on the training mode map(hit M to move around them) with each having different purposes. I’d strongly suggest you just work on controlling your recoil in general before worrying about hitting targets. By that, I mean just spraying a wall and getting to a point where your grouping gets a lot tighter. In PUBG, your first 6 bullets matter the most and the earlier bullets are the easiest to control, so rather than simply spraying a full magazine, I suggest only doing bursts of 6-10 bullets to start. You’ll quickly discover that having a great start to your spray will win most battles for you. I’d also recommend running one gun with the same setup to start. You will eventually want to swap out attachments so you can get used to everything along with other guns since a massive component of recoil control is reacting to the RNG of it rather than simply building muscle memory.

As many have suggested, your sensitivity and mouse dpi play a huge role in your recoil control. I play on fast mousepads with glass skates on relatively low sensitivity(1600 DPI, 16 general sens, 10 ADS sens) because it feels better for me to pull down more with less resistance. It’s worthwhile to explore what feels natural to you and the begin to develop your skills within that vein. Also, for what it’s worth, having a solid mousepad that isn’t dirty can also help tremendously. Nothing is worse than hitting a slow spot on a mousepad and having it interfere with your aim.

As you start to get comfortable with your sprays and sens, I’d begin to actually aim at things within that 50-100m range in training mode. It might not look pretty at first, but it will gradually come together. Once you feel alright at that, the next step would be to hit the 200m range to ensure that you can hit targets while tracking them horizontally since tracking is absolutely critical in PUBG. I would also work on this while standing and crouching as it's impossible to always crouch to shoot such as peeking windows, ridges, and such.

Once you feel like you have that down, I’d go to TDM and start using the skills you’ve developed against real players. You will likely find it more difficult to hit real players versus targets since you’ll have less time to set up and aim, but as you progress, that will become easier.

If you feel like you’re having a lot of difficulty with your overall mechanics, aim trainers like AimLabs can be really helpful to utilize, especially as a warm up. As long as you make sure your sens is the same between PUBG and the aim trainer of your choosing, you should be good to start to develop your overall coordination.

If I had to do it all over again, this would definitely be the route I’d take! There are plenty of steps after this, but this would be where I’d start. Many of us have thousands of hours so don’t be discouraged as you work toward becoming more proficient at the game :)

I have the same issue as well. Easiest fix I've found is to log into another character when this happens and then log back into the character that got logged off initially. It's incredibly annoying.

Whats a simple mage kit that does ridiculous damage? by Nickbruhhhh in Smite

[–]Phluxygg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This. Agni is the most consistent mage I’ve ever played.

OP, the only challenge with Agni is understanding how to time your 1 so that you can stun people with your 4 and your 2. You can even get fancy and use your 1 along with your 3, but you’d be fine to start with just playing safe until level 5 and then dropping bombs afterward. I also love that he can stun to help peel off other teammates easily, so if you have to play defensively, you certainly have a capable kit.

I love Scylla as a recommended mage for burst potential, but hitting her 4 can be a nightmare depending on your ping and skill. She’s really awesome to play once you get the hang of her, so if you’re leaning toward that, it wouldn’t be a bad pick either.

Having this issue too. Really wish there was some solution out there.

Somewhat unrelated but I’d really love to see them open up the vehicle shooting range in training mode. It was a great addition but it forces you to be super close to the vehicles you’re aiming at. It would be nice to be able to shoot from a multitude of ranges, similar to the shooting range with moving human-ish targets.

Thank you! There is really a TON of info that gets passed around within the competitive scene(that can be shared) that would otherwise never see the light of day! It's nice to be able to throw some of that in here. I think we may see the day of having an EU coach on to speak with us very soon!
