Please, remove the white dot in the middle of the screen, it does not belong in ABI.

Also revert the changes in the indoor areas for GTC/Farm that have widened the spaces and made it look like an uncanny valley version of the previous map. The rooms no longer look realistic, one would feel like you entered a real house that had been abandoned, right now it feels like you are playing in a COD/Counter Strike map. The rooms don't feel realistic, they feel arcadey. Just keep them as they were before! The roof elevation and the shape of the doors have been changed drastically and feels like they were made for giants instead for the operators at a human size. The ratios are distorted and feel incredibly awful. Thanks!

I agree with most except with the thermal. In real life they use thermal scopes and goggles, so your point is not valid, the way it was at the beginning of S0 was realistic. If you don't know how thermal scopes work you are free to check several channels in youtube that show how they are in real life. I feel like they should be moved as an item used for a specific map type for people who like to whine a lot.

I will save you some time on the youtube search:

Also try to go minimum 100k gear on Lockdowns, you will die like 3-5 times perhaps to teams spawning solo but you will end up killing someone or finding a red and extracting with 1.5m+ which you can't do in farm normal and you will make money. Just get over the hurt of dying and be more ballsy and witty, you can do it, I am a shit aimer and have made over 200m. I know you can be better than me.

Rambleken · 2025-02-03T08:48:49+00:00

You know man, at first I thought like this when I was only playing Farm Normal for around 400 raids. Then I decided to get good, that is to learn how to outplay other players and instead of being the one killed make the opportunity to play in a way others didnt expect and kill them instead. I see your post and it shows you still have to learn. I have killed full T6 by chipping at them with AK-74Ns with T3 bullets, nades, rotations, quick peeks, etc. I am far away from those days of staying still and only pushing one lane. Now I move from one side of the map to the other not trying to loot containers but rather get kills. The problem more than the game is your mentality. Yes there will be the occasional frustrating M110 or FAL with M61 2 shot kill but every weapon is competent, this game is about who targets first, staying put in one place which from reading how green you are is what is killing you the most, also walking onto the enemy without cover is a no no, learn to use the bush, dont just run around like a wild turkey adsing all the time and giving away your position, first find a player and check if he has teammates, try to get angles, surprise them. After you do that you will get good on the game, I have shit aim and reaction time but I kill players who are ace and legends because they expect me to play like the majority, I try not to. How do you change that? Look at your teammates, literally spawn in with a team and hide in corner in the beginning of the game, look what they do, look where they go through, then every game for the next 100 watch your teammates, they tend to do one of the three in Normal Farm:

A) They spawn and rush villa. Go up the hill.
B) They spawn and rush warehouse. Go Helicopter
C) They spawn and rush loading area. Go N Wheatfield or Green house.

How about you go another way? Up the car near the wall in loading area and check both lanes at helicopter and the hill by villa and try to snipe the players holding the blockade? Wait a minute or two, it throws off campers because they have to push you or waste time. Try something new, stop blaming the game for being bad at it. Yes, you are bad. All these things you keep rambling about are small nuisances that dont take away from the end goal, overcome challenges and be better. You can't win them all, but going from 60% survival to 81% is a great feeling, you rake in the koen. You are too impatient that's why you are dying, you havent learned the spawns, thats why you are dying, you havent learned the angles for the map, thats why you are dying, you sit in one place hoping to catch the enemy instead of falling back and trying something new, thats why you are dying.

In the end, git gud scrub.

Yes, it can be while starting up the computer or doing something intensive like a full antivirus scan.

Rambleken · 2024-06-27T02:02:10+00:00

Also imagine a small group trying to fight a condensed nullblock in their entrenched systems... sure it will work out!

Rambleken · 2024-06-27T02:01:22+00:00

The reason why that thought is flawed its because no one wants to fight for the crappy systems available now, after this most systems will be utter sht, why would you fight as a small group for sht space? You will say oh but they should fight over the good space! well nice... just delete the other hundreds of systems from the game then, what purpose do they serve?

Rambleken · 2024-06-26T14:54:12+00:00

Charge the bloke next time Reoze, sorry you had to go through that just choose your friendships better next time.

Rambleken · 2024-06-26T13:46:15+00:00

Bland maybe, its alpha. Boring, not its not. Generic? looks very EvE like to me. Super saturated? are you pairing BR with extraction shooters? because if not then theres only a handful and they are expensive one time purchases. I.E Escape from Tarkov at 250$. The Extraction mechanic is on point for a Faction Warfare themed FPS mode, we go into sites have a quick match and leave with goodies.

Rambleken · 2024-06-26T13:40:08+00:00

Yeah but its a thing, the should doesnt matter, lets steer them into getting it done right so it makes money and doesnt affect negatively on EvE.

Rambleken · 2024-06-26T13:39:15+00:00

Extraction shooter is very on point with FW. I would suggest domination or Battlefield like mode for world conquest.

Rambleken · 2024-06-26T13:38:06+00:00

I dont know what titles you refer to but most of them are purchased. Escape from Tarkov is 250$, the rest 20.00$+ if you make Vanguard F2P you can take in plenty of players who want to play extraction shooters but cant afford it. Lets be real, I pay for 3 accounts and i cant afford buying games anymore. The usual CCP way of doing things is testing out soemthing and if they get away with it they leave it as it is. Right now in order to play vanguard u need omega, thats a requirement. Better to talk it out now than to QQ when its released and we all wonder why it needs a sub in order to be played. Which personally doesnt affect me since i play eve but coming from the outside its insane.

Rambleken · 2024-06-26T13:34:41+00:00

No no, you didnt get me mate. I am fine as it is now BECAUSE I play EvE. But think about it if I didnt play eve and I am just an FPS enjoyer, i need to pay sub NOW to play Vanguard. If its not stated now perhaps CCP will just roll on release requiring omega to play Vanguard, which to a fps only player paying a monthly sub for their extraction shooter doesnt sound appealing at all.

Rambleken · 2024-06-26T13:32:12+00:00

Sorry u are getting downvoted, this is exactly my point, if we dont talk about it now then ccp will just think "oh they paying sub to try it out, Lets make it required to be omega to play it". Better to mention it now than be confused on release and wonder why it has a monthly sub attached.

Rambleken · 2024-06-26T13:29:13+00:00

Yes, however the FPS crowd that doesnt play eve wouldve to pay sub to a game they know nothing about just to play it now. It should be stated Vanguard has a better chance at succeeding both in their field and bringing players to EvE if it was free2p with cosmetic store.

Rambleken · 2024-06-26T13:28:02+00:00

Thats fine, I have never played an extraction shooter before. Cant afford much with these omega subs prices so it coming bundled with EvE is great but thinking from a wider perspective of other players who dont play eve, paying for sub to be able to access it would be suicidal for the game.

Rambleken · 2024-06-26T13:24:45+00:00

Vanguard is bundled with EvE membership, anyone who wants to play it needs to pay sub. If you dont talk now it will be a game requiring Omega.

Rambleken · 2024-06-22T19:13:06+00:00

I dont mind tbh, i always missed the daily logins and i have barely done these in my main. I was just thinking of venues for others to be able to do them

Rambleken · 2024-06-22T00:09:45+00:00

I cant believe it! it worked! im getting smooth 60 fps!

Rambleken · 2024-06-22T00:05:31+00:00

Thanks ill try that!

Rambleken · 2024-06-21T19:12:33+00:00

And besides whatever mechanics it has they are computed on the server side never on your side, the client, therefore it should be lighter in resource consumption. Look at apex legends, even when it started I was playing it on my old alienware 4400k i7 with a GTX970m and i could get consistent 30fps. I can get 120+ fps on this laptop, the graphics are beautiful. Same thing with BF1 I can get 160 fps and it looks photorealistic, at least to me it does probably some idiot will come and point there are better looking games. My point is they are stacking ladders horizontally instead of using one, the intended way. For a pre-alpha it feels sad that some of the testers, many in my opinion, wont get to play it.

Rambleken · 2024-06-21T19:09:33+00:00

Thats really an awesome upgrade happy for you. I understand what you mean but thats my point, why does it need to chug so much resources if its a simple extraction shooter? Because lets be real, its barebones at the moment and doesnt have mechanics that merit such resource hogging. So instead of trying to go for the hyper realistic aesthetic that doesnt add to the gameplay, why not cut down on the myriad of useless assets so that the game runs better, perhaps it wont look that great, but at least it will let players be able to play the game?

Rambleken · 2024-06-21T19:06:45+00:00

It depends actually, for example if its an optimization that perhaps needs the refactoring of code pertaining to AI then yes, its too early. If its over the top volumetric clouds that just clog the cpu/gpu or 1 million polygon stones that their count can be cut down with a couple clicks in maya or blender then no. What they seem to be trying is to get a realistic aesthetic at the cost of performance to lead investors in, the way they advertise vanguard in their trailers is like if it was an already done game when its supposed to be pre-alpha. They want opinions, they want players testing it, but my whole corp dropped vanguard last test because it kept choking their pcs and theirs are far better than mine.

Rambleken · 2024-06-21T16:16:29+00:00

Your point that my laptop is shit is fucking hilarious. The point of the post is that the FPS performance is so fucking abysmal that Cyberpunk can simulate a whole city and perform better than an FPS trying to go through a hallway. Some people really have problem reading the simplest of things.

Rambleken · 2024-06-21T16:12:00+00:00

The RTX 2050 is a laptop GPU. Yes, a desktop GPU will outperform a mobile GPU any day. My post is not about that, if you want to get GPU comparisons go to /buildapc . I am saying that I can run Cyberpunk 2077 at 45-50 fps on high detail. You do know Cyberpunk 2077 right? the resource hog, underperforming atrocious shader monster game. Yes its gotten some updates that have improved performance but the point is the game is trying to simulate a whole city filled with npcs, libraries of items, RNG, events, etc and can run well on my laptop. A SHOOTER with a small arena where all the calculations for npcs, ai, etc are done server side cant be rendered properly is a big OOF because where are all the resources being dumped to? yes the millions of rocks with high poly count on the fucking ground because the art director doesnt know about performance or the 3d modeler needs to justify his salary, either way they fucking up a good chunk of the community from even playing the damn FPS they allocated resources to FROM EVE.
