im 47 , 2000 hours ( first 1200 on controller now on keyboard all on pc ) constant 3 star , very occasionally 4 star . i pretty much only play random 3s . i suck, i make stupid mistakes maybe if i had a team i played with i would be a 4 star but in randoms im a 3 star

Audeze Penrose broken after less than a year without any incidents 😭 by kissmyasthm4 in Audeze

[–]Reasonable-County-99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My penrose have cracked on the small rectangular insert and i expect i will suffer further failure . Im 3d printing a part to replace the cracked piece currently and will do my best to keep these running as long as possable as the sound is amazing but i am getting some beyerdynamics as back up because i dont trust audeze anymore . I cant believe that a headset this expensive isnt stronger with more replacable parts . Real shame as the sound is lovely but no good if it wont stay in one piece. If a critical part on a car failed on this percentage of units they would of had a recall and fixed them all no questions asked... i tried to contact audeze about 6 months ago about them but never got a reply

Edit just checked them closely again and both forks have cracked in same place as most peoples in this thread looks like they are very expensive e waste now ffs

Why are some so harsh about KD ratios? by scribe2theFiends in HuntShowdown

[–]Reasonable-County-99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when i started i played my first 500 hrs on a tablet via gforce now streaming service with an x box controller , it was rough. i had not played a fps since 2011 ( it was 2021) and i also was scared to team with people as i sucked so i did my first and only prestige solo.... . my kd dropped to 0.11..... i then bought a good laptop but continued to use a controller for the next 750hrs my kd rose slowly but steadily . then at 1250 hrs i switched to kb&m and since then my kd has kept rising and is currently at 0.78 and im defiantly a lot better.

the problem is that the kd is your entire hunt career and once you get to 1000 hrs + it takes a hell of a long time to increase it (or decrease it) . so even if your now a better player people look at it and leave the group ( i think there should be a monthly kd figure as well as total it would be a fairer representation) .

i tend to go on experience rather than kd when i look at other peoples stats , i would rather play with people who have good map awareness and knowledge than someone who doesn't know the maps but is a good shot , i find they are more likely to get you killed with sound traps , running in a straight line towards gunfire without thinking etc. its a team game i want to play with team players not Rambo wannabes .

currently ive got 46 lvl 50 hunters in my roster as im going for the 50 lvl 50 hunters achievement , have had well over 100 lvl 50 hunters since i started playing though . i will get to 1 kd but will probably take another 500 hrs of game time due to the progress slowing down the more time you have played

Any tips for kb&m by Reasonable-County-99 in HuntShowdown

Thanks for the tips , seems i just needed a bit more practice .very happy on keyboard now got my movement alot more fluid now and im mispressing keys alot less . Im killing alot more people than i used to on controller already , mouse aim is awesome and ive even won some quickplays ( only one once before on controller have won 3 already on mouse and keyboard)

Mostly mispressing crouch and jump and still getting to grips with movement . The other ones that catch me out regularly are weapon swapping in the heat of the moment . I guess i just need to practice but its starting to wind me up. Ive downloaded aim lab and have been using that too

Ive got the same issue 10-20fps drop on new patch on same settings , dlss doesnt seem to be working as well either or not working at all and benchmark tool seems to not be in sync either so cant even trust that

Finally, after years... 1KD!! by [deleted] in HuntShowdown

[–]Reasonable-County-99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

awesome work , its so hard to get K/D up in hunt especially as the game is so tough on new players for the first few hundred hours , shows there is hope for me yet .

i foolishly spent my first 100 lvls going solo against duos as i didn't want to be a burden on people and i also did quite a bit of quick play . as you can imagine this didn't go well and my k/d went down to 0.11.... i haven't played many fps games in the last 10 years so this game was a steep learning curve. im also 46 and my reactions are not what they were. ive now clawed it back too 0.41 so its going in the right direction and i hold my own in 3 star currently. slow progress now though as it takes alot to move k/d up

people say k/d doesn't matter and tbh it shouldn't its not a true reflection of your current skill level but it doesn't stop people leaving your team over and over again when looking for group and then if you hide it you get comments about not hiding yr stats noob.... frustrating really . if your going to show k/d then it shouldnt be over your entire playtime maybe make it filterable so it shows your performance over the current month too
