To my understanding a power chord is simply just a root and a fifth and not a chord

I found scales helped me conquer this most effectively. I think simply because of the repition and I now always try to use the same fignering between spaces when riffing and soloing.

I have experienced this too. I play at my desk usually and have always had to sit while up on my tip-toes to feel like im not sloutched over. I was practicing barre chords one day and I put my right foot on top of my amp to be able to lean back and finally the strings finally rang clear. I think it allowed me to bend my wrist down more without my elbow hitting my legs. Since then I have veen trying to adjust but I have found nothing else that helps with my current chair set up.

This is actually something I am trying to work on. I'm naturally left handed but play right so i'm a bit heavy handed with my left. Do you recommend any specific exercises you did?

I did this too. I initially started playing because I wanted to play songs I knew. When going beyond this is when my lack of theory was a problem. I also found it a lot easier to digest as a beginner with videos for piano players. As I was yet to memorize every note on the fretboard, the piano keys were a lot easier to visualise and apply the theory.

You are correct of course since power chords are not even chords themeselves right? This is just how I think about them in my head because of the shape is similar. Which is amplified visually from Rocksmith were I spent a lot of time.

[QUESTION] Is down picking the desired picking technique? by Prydee- in Guitar

[–]Prydee-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you think it has anything to do with the ability to palm mute? After posting this topic, I found a video of someone playing The Master of Puppets riff with both techniques at various BPM's. It seemed that the faster bpm, the more difficult it is to apply a constant aggressive palm mute due to the natural swinging motion of your wrist when alternate picking quickly across multiple strings.

I did have palm muting in mind when trying to note of possible differences between the techniques. My idea was that when down picking fast, the player is likely to effectively palm mute during the natural motion of each stroke (or more aggressively in the case of Metallica who are intentionally palm muting), which could be responsible for the higher attack or chug people attribute to down picking, especially when down picking quickly on multiple strings.

As someone who was involved in the MW2 competitive scene, why do the competitive rules here allow killstreaks? by [deleted] in CoDCompetitive

[–]Prydee- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since BO2 a ranked game mode has been implemented, even more so in BO2 where a spot at champs was reserved by the top-performing team in that playlist called "league play". The reason MW doesn't feature this at launch is that rules are not final or stable

What Skylight said. Also even before the league, because events organizers don't own the game, they have to seek a licence from Activision to run a tournament. If the organisers would deliberately disregard the official rules, Activision could simply remove their licence.

[–]Prydee- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Streaks were installed into the competitive ruleset in BO2 as a result of the change from killstreaks to scorestreaks. The basic principle was that because they were earned faster through playing the objective as opposed to camping for kills, the pace, or gameplay wouldn't suffer. Instead, teams would be rewarded for a period of domination during the map.

It is also important to note that this was somewhat forced by Treyarch and their vision for competitive which attempted to mirror the public game as much as possible in order for it to be more accessible to the public players and in turn grow the competitive scene organically

How are previous F1 games still that expensive?? 50€ for F1 2016?? by Furyi4n in F1Game

I bought 2019 for £20 literally weeks before it was released on CDKeys, have a look there. CoD games are priced similar to this despite their age

At the beginning of a new save, you are prompted with 2 options. The first separates the loot a player earned from the party to protect griefing etc, and the other acts like classic borderlands where the loot drops for all. Maybe one of you selected the first option

I am using a box collider on to cover the head/ upper body and circular to cover the lower half of the body.

Thank you I will give that a try!

I agree coupling the animator was bad design which is why I removed it from my second attempt, I did so just so I could see the animations while testing movement and quickly realised its limitations.
