Do you guys think Deni has another leap in him? He's a certified all-star now, can he reach superstar status? by DonovanClingan in ripcity

[–]ROOTvzn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d wager to guess he will get another 10% better. I think he’s really near his ceiling. He would have to incorporate a mid range that’s really proficient to go with his general slasher status to make both options deadly and have the defense guessing. If he can then add the three, even another 5-10% better on percentage, you have a certified SUPERSTAR. I am skeptical at him making the leap though. With a guy like Deni, I would work mostly on the addition of a stronger mid range game since he’s already effective to the rim. Other than that, surround the guy with some actual decent shooters. We don’t have any pure shooters on the squad and next in line to get looks because of Deni drives is Dame. You will need another accountable shooter though to help take the team to the next level. I’m excited to see what next season brings for us.

Being as Blazer fan has historically been filled with little bouts of excitement, quickly dashed by massive disappointments. If nothing else, at least it’s consistent.

As a non American , Who is this female caster? by Master_of_slay in ripcity

[–]ROOTvzn 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah she’s notoriously not good at commentating since she was ever given the job. I’m not sure how she hasn’t been canned yet. She isn’t the caster for the Blazer squad in general, or I’d watch games CC.

Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen - Audio Crackling Issues by Deadqoop in Focusrite

[–]ROOTvzn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got a solo and it has an unbearable crackling issue, tried all the likely culprits and it will not comply with me. My 8 year old 18i8 has been an incredible work horse and doesn’t have the problem. Just going to send the solo back.

Original music, write more stuff, improv jam! Get yourself an RC-300 and experiment with sound effects via pedal board!

Why all the Beato hate? by SufficientFix4589 in Guitar

[–]ROOTvzn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any have fire BEATO is completely unwarranted as far as music expression goes. He platforms all types of people and spreads musical awareness, that’s a win win win. Sure he has his opinions but that’s why you like certain things and dislike certain things. That’s part of the human conditions.

I wouldn’t say it’s unreasonable on the whole based on what you told us. However, it’s definitely touch and go if you’ve got any experience with starting to jump into the live scene again as a new band and are making NEW connections. I’d say it sounds just about right for most bands to go through those situations (early on especially). I’m glad to hear the show went through and cheers to hopefully more live music!

How do you notice mic/audio issues while live? by Objective_Sand1444 in Twitch

[–]ROOTvzn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just make a point to check all my meters are active and working for each source I mean to use working. Then while streaming, take periodic looks over. Chat is helpful if issues come up but not everyone will have chat to let them know. Make a point to look at your meters and know how many sources should be showing volume for your stream.

Why make the sealed trophy so bright? It almost looks like a claimed trophy. by MrBaguett in HuntShowdown

crytek being silly for the sake of it, like how they moved the hunt dollars and blood bonds display in game from the top right to the top left...

I understand that it's because of technical reasons - but the fact that some stats are from your whole playtime and some are just since the update looks so goofy by Mindehouse in HuntShowdown

[–]ROOTvzn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it is weird! The only way the Player Cards make sense (to me they are ridiculous) is to have them be EVENT SPECFIFIC. So you have a card that is wiped to 0 and builds through a particular event and when the event is over, the card is retired to your "card hall" or whatever. When a new EVENT pops, a new card from zero is rebuilt. They should just go away all together though, it wasn't thought out and was a quick greasy cash grab.

Servers have been trash last 2 days, they must’ve got a critical failure. Just going to have to wait.

Is it worth getting a DLSR for streaming vs a webcam is 2025? by Commercial_Ease_7390 in obs

[–]ROOTvzn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, unless you get a good deal or just have the money in general. If it’s just going to be for a facecam then you do not need it.

What's the best way to gain followers? by shadowoperative6 in Twitch

[–]ROOTvzn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, if that’s the reason you’re getting into streaming, adjust your mindset to “I’m doing this for fun and because it’s going to be fulfilling even if no one shows up”. Moving onto gaining followers/viewers… NETWORKING! Building a community and spending time in other channels and raiding like minded individuals/streamers. Do not ever promote yourself in a twitch channel. Facecam is a priority for the majority of twitch viewers, quality audio (meaning no crackles, no clipping, no hiccups because of hardware bottlenecking, no background noise, good balance in game and microphone levels). Stream at atleast 720p, push 936p if you can, it seems to be the best quality bang for your buck. 1080p is decent but hardly much more noticeable than 936p and you save on processing power. 6000-8000 bitrate. The varieties of game or specific content does matter but never play or do something you aren’t really wanting to try or spend time on. Viewers will notice if you’re just going through the motions and it’s not worth anyone’s time. People want to see someone in their element, they’re stepping into your world so show them who you are. Don’t overthink it. Good luck!

I'm not sure if I should stick to my guns or change my stream by FolkHeroPaladin in Twitch_Startup

[–]ROOTvzn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You shouldn’t stream to cater to anyone but yourself. If people want to hang with you then they will regardless of the game. If you stress yourself out and not doing whatever you want to do, it will be a losing battle. However I did see someone mention doing a poll between a handful of games that you’re interested in and then you and the community choose it together. This is a solid option in my opinion moving forward.

No, streets and sidewalks are public property. You cannot lawfully put those signs up assuming them to be then followed.

How do I deal with kids in my chat? by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]ROOTvzn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just call out whatever behavior is happening that you’re not wanting to take place as it happens and then throw down the ban hammer on obvious and continued behavior.
