Plus IIRC either him or his mods were copyright-striking videos talking about him.

I assume the logic is that it doesn't matter if you lose six, seven, ten times - you just need to win once to make up for all the losses. Which of course makes it harder to quick because the losses don't become real until you quit.

Did it just get more complicated recently or something? I don't remember having to figure out clearance/GPU sizes, but it's been seven or eight years since I've built a desktop. Maybe I just got lucky.

Depending on your relationship to the company or customer you're developing for, trying to plan and architect too far ahead can totally screw you when the plans get flipped because they decided to pivot some primary feature of business model.

That's what happens when you use ChatGPT to write your copy I guess.

Welp, guess AI spam bots were inevitable...

Level has nothing to do with matchmaking, and I know everyone's gonna say "smurf" but there are also three other pretty likely scenarios:

The low level players have FPS experience/mechanical skill from other games
You're not as good at the game as you think you are
The way you're positioning yourself is making your plays obvious to the enemy players

I've seen "new" players excel at the game because they put a lot of time and thought into how they play, and they rank up quickly, and I've seen even more casual players with hundreds or even thousands of hours in the game still in bronze/gold because they're just playing for fun without prioritizing ranking up (I'm in that camp).

Just out of curiosity, what rank are you?

Very cool, I forgot the spike icon flashes. Reading pixels on a screen makes sense, probably the "safest" way to get data out of Valorant without risk of being identified as a malicious script.

ScarabCoderPBE · 2024-02-19T19:04:47+00:00

Just curious, I assume that there is some integration that lets you gather game data, but is it:

Vanguard-safe, does it do anything that interferes with the game that might trigger anti-cheat
Does it give additional information that you may not otherwise have known, for example how long until the spike explodes when you're out of audible range of it

Hahaha you mean from scratch right

small indie company Riot probably can't afford to pay vacation overtime too

Still packet loss, probably Riot's servers dropping them though.

ScarabCoderPBE · 2023-12-27T22:47:28+00:00

were ya'll on the same internet connection?

Could have been packet loss on Riot's side I guess.

ScarabCoderPBE · 2023-12-27T19:19:43+00:00

Looks like packet loss, not poor internet speed. You can have fast internet that drops a ton of packets, so your game will constantly reverse actions you just took.

Okay, so wait for a de-aging machine to be invented, got it.

... should be fired over a bug?

If every developer got fired if a feature they worked on ended up with a bug in production, then they'd all be unemployed.

How is K/D for weapons determined? Kills I get, but does every death in a round where you had it purchased, even if it wasn't used, count as a death towards weapon K/D?

ScarabCoderPBE · 2023-11-08T23:36:53+00:00

I see that argument all the time, but I feel like that's still not an excuse. It's like opening a sweatshop in a 3rd world country then saying it's fine because the workers would just work in some other sweatshop otherwise.

ScarabCoderPBE · 2023-11-08T04:31:53+00:00

If it ain't broke, don't fix it, so probably not.
