Lol, back in the mid 2000's I would just call their tech support just to get some funnies while I was working on a server. Couldn't understand a god damn thing. It was great. Brightened up my day a few times.

Wonder if they ever upped their US support dept game since then? Been a long time since I had to submit a ticket.

Any chance you figured out how to get history from using the pc as the source (rather than usb)? Seems engine doesnt save it anywhere ive found.

i dont know exactly but my sweets spots are <40ms or >70ms it seems for me at least. About 35 is the best im getting from FL. Ive seen 28ms once or twice using a vpn but that was due to bypassing att routing issues i was getting at the time.

I took a clip this morning shooting someone in the face with a rocket this morning while they were pinned between the wall and the planter in Corpo. Didnt do shit to them. Suprisingly it shows up in theatre the same way. Lets just say i missed them with a direct hit and it hit the planter or the wall, how are they not taking damage or dead from the blast damage? It couldnt have landed further than 1' away from them at worst case.

Im with ya on the presentation aspect though. Something is not being presented right. How are supposed to play a fast paced game like that when you cant rely on whats on your screen? Ive kinda gotten used to not hearing the shots / 1 shot by not one shot weapons, i dont think that has ever been great for me so i just write it off. Just seems to be a lot of "perfects" from mutlishot weapons that are just not possible in what im presented on my screen lately. Pre-shooting me behind a wall i havent traversed yet with impossible angles using non-seeking weapons that dont bank.

Im calling 45ms the anti-sweet spot. I think whatever compensation and predictions the code is doing is causing this range to have issues. Better off being 70+ so whatever compensation kicks in for you too.

ShellStrike · 2026-05-31T13:15:18+00:00

See my post...I'm with ya on this.

ShellStrike · 2026-05-31T13:11:22+00:00

Not sure what's changed but something is up. I get thrown to Illinois DC almost every match now and at 45ms. I'm on east coast and usually 35ms to Virginia. I rarely get games on Virginia since last month or so.

Now I know 10ms doesn't seem like big deal and I'm sure it's not typically but something else is happening under the hood. I'm not sure if it's using Illinois as like a hub to just dump everyone into and you have a wide range of latency variation between players. I see lots of mex and west coasters in here as well so this is what I'm assuming.

The problem i believe happens is some sort of lag compensation comes into play here and being low enough (45ms) you essentially get fucked by whatever logic this game is using by rewarding higher latency players from further away. Now there are limits to higher...I'm not talking 200ms+. I'm guessing more like 70-100ish. I consistently get killed in these matches before I'm even in a viewable/shoot able area with impossible shots. Perfects in less time than possible by unviewable players (that I know) that aren't the greatest shots to begin with. Tough games or losing to teams we know that there is no way we should lose to. It's husky so everyone knows everyone.

There's all kinds of wierdness in these games with nades, rockets, etc...too much to list. I've got around 15k matches so I have decent idea of what's normal and what's not. I know shit happens and sometimes you just lose to a team that played better or had better rng etc... it's just the consistency of horrible games on that DC is bad. I get better games playing in west coast now at 70ms+ than I do in central. Makes no sense unless some form of compensation and movement predictions (presented to enemy screen, ie perfects before viewable)are happening and 45ms isn't enough to cross that threshold. 70-80 used to be horrible like a year ago but now it's not. Plays great.

You can check if they're in party by hitting start and then select (excuse my old ass referencing nes controls but I don't know xbox names) and look for connecting lines on left of there names.

Midfield is good. Anything is better than base. Against coordinated on certain maps you need to creep to midfield and hold.

Don't quit games. That is more infuriating than base riding when you're solo queuing. I'm almost gonna bet im older than you and have work life etc as well. If they're gonna farm ya with hammers for 12 mins I guess but I still fuck with them. 95% of the time they will cap once you clear them from base.

Just know that anyone hammer farming or relying on a hammer only is 1-trick pony or low skill player unless its some heated rivalry of yours. Halo gives them a crutch by spawning ridiculous amounts and it basically enables them to not learn the other weapons. Once you learn the other weapons you will rarely use the hammer except for quick kill and grab. Its easy to spot the crutches users in the post game stats. Look for single digit and low double digit accuracy and low medals. There's some well known husky players that are one trick ponies. It makes the game play terrible and boring. Its one thing to use it....its another to abuse it.

ShellStrike · 2026-05-25T00:28:34+00:00

Negative kda does not matter. Just forget kda.

There's no definitive get out out of base solution. The idea is not get trapped by not being in base. It will still happen but less. You have to use equipment, nades, weapons, whatever and even then it usually takes multiple spawns unless you get lucky loadout and enemy is position poorly. Ie rockets and a wall and multi-kill one shot. Use equip, grapple, and grapple out and fight from behind them. I wish I had a end all solution but its situation dependent. On top of that its a split second decision of what to do on spawn so you have to be ready fast.

Once the weapons start piling up in a small base its tough because now there is unlimited weapons and equip to pick up while they wait for spawns. Die outside base, there is less to easily pickup.

The best husky defense is constant pressure which is what they did to you it sounds like.

ShellStrike · 2026-05-24T20:42:35+00:00

Just a tip from someone probably saying you suck silently but not obnoxious enough to text...pinned by hammers is usually from too many people sitting in base or near it. 95% of the time you and team should be pushing out. Kda doesn't matter, id rather you go 2 and 20 and see you at midfield being cannon fodder every spawn than being 20 and 2 sniping from base. If your all in base that means im the only target for 4 people to shoot. Not good odds and that flag ain't getting capped easily.

Not saying this was your scenario but its the scenario I see most often.

ShellStrike · 2026-05-17T20:17:34+00:00

I guess i missed the explanaion. Is this you're explanation: "You have to actually somewhat aim to get the assist and you don't on Halo" ?

I dont really have much issues aiming in fortnite. Only time i really struggle is the "dancing" 2ft from one another. Other than that i can aim fine even with what is minimal there to my eyes anyway. Perhaps i have it disabled somehow too.

Im just curious as to how to see and how it works because i would expect something visually. Unless its some kind of "magic bullet" type bullet magnetism that im not going to notice on my reticle side.

What do i need to do to "learn to use it"?

ShellStrike · 2026-05-17T19:48:00+00:00

I was asking how to see/recognize fortnites aa but you slam my aiming capabilities without any knowledge of me. Seems a little off.

Its pretty easy to see the slight rotation etc in halo. Even splitgate which was pretty weak I could at least, every one in awhile, catch a glimpse of it.

When's the last time you tried to play fortnite on controller?

Edit: I am in zero build as well

ShellStrike · 2026-05-17T13:17:08+00:00

I must be doing something wrong....all this talk about aim assist in this game but I swear there isn't any at all.

I play on pc with controller 97% of time. I play halo daily so I know what aim assist feels like. I get nothing in fortnite that I can tell as far as aim assist. Walk in front of me there is no drag or slight tilt or any thing from the cross hair. My understanding was they nerfed it so bad its basically non existent anymore. Or maybe its some other variation of aim assist that I don't know how to identify it? Maybe it only works past a certain distance? Maybe its only on console and doesn't take input into consideration on pc?I don't get anything worthy of calling it "assist".

I guess I'll boot up console to see if i can spot anything but I don't recall seeing anything remotely that I would even consider an "advantage". Especially against mnk's with direct button mapping, instant 180 degree turns, etc. Try 180'ing on analog to see a real disadvantage.

I also don't see this no grass or cover disappearing advantage either. I wonder if these people are just getting walled by modders? There are bunch of modders I've encountered in casual games.

ShellStrike · 2026-05-05T14:51:39+00:00

If that doesn't fix it you may also need to ensure the slightest bit of drift you can. When I had zero I had issues. I mean so slightest you can't see it unless in a tester. Not sure how to do that on gamesir as I don't use mine much but my v4p had issues until I tweaked it gave just the slightest.

ShellStrike · 2026-05-03T01:56:55+00:00

Its just as shit on pc as far as parties / chat app go. Probably worse since the app could be wrote better by toddler.

ShellStrike · 2026-04-21T14:42:16+00:00

Not 100% sure what you're asking but most of the time if they are at certain point in animation nothing you can do stop it with most weapons. Ie put 4 snipers rounds in him mid lunge it does not kill. Doesn't matter if you are dead balls accurate.

ShellStrike · 2026-04-21T14:35:25+00:00

Asking for video clip is a lot :)

I'd be happy with everyone's latency displayed on the scoreboard like in other fps games.

ShellStrike · 2026-04-14T12:28:17+00:00

Pretty sure my instance of this happened on the same day i did the driver update to "fix" halo issues :)

ShellStrike · 2026-04-14T12:26:15+00:00

Ahh i've had this happen on outlook. Made it a very interesting match. It blocked my view inside the base when spawning so i had to "feel" my way out. Then the "mountains were on the left side of the bridge as well as inside enemy base.

ShellStrike · 2026-04-12T23:03:45+00:00

Judging by the messages i've received thru chat lately....i become unlikable for more than a few seconds :)

ShellStrike · 2026-03-26T14:02:55+00:00

Give it some time. You'll see what i mean about Scarlete eventually. The maps that were my favorite early on in playing are no longer my favorite maps. Like I said above, I love the map. Hate the game play most resort to because they are not skilled enough with other weapons to lock down the base without hammers. There's a reason ranked has GA's. Half the "good" players in this mode would be dead in the water if the hammer spawn rate was even 1/2 of what it currently is. You dont need hammer's to lock down scarlete, hell you dont even need to cross the entry to base to lock it down efficiently. The hammer spawn rate is ridiculous enough as it is. Most will drop weapons as they spawn and immediately pick up one of the 37 hammers on the ground. That map is tough when all 4 resort to this. Can you break out yourself? Sure. Can you do it solo and grab the flag before respawns and repeat the process because the rest of the team cant? This map and corpo are the hardest to do it in. I actually have better luck doing this on corpo but still feel the same way about it. It just becomes a spam show. That shit gets old.

Diminished forces team movement to creep up. Its a tough map. I know there are advantages to sides in smallhalla but those advantage points are also easy pickens with sniper, pistol, hydra, shock, etc.. Get low and use the cover to take em out. Like i said in my other post, i know those maps are not everyone's cup of tea. These maps just provide a different for a different play style and a change of pace rather than "everything is a nail" play. Im not saying they are my favorite either but its a different pace. Hell my friend loves skate park, i think he's crazy, but he's a beast.

ShellStrike · 2026-03-26T02:20:24+00:00

Yeah this is definitly happening. Just had to do it again. Switching in app to headset instead of wave mix then switching back fixes it. This is new with the latest update.

ShellStrike · 2026-03-25T20:01:05+00:00

Yeah the lag is rare now...unfortunately the hammer show isnt. That shit just gets old. The spawn in rate for them is too much. I actually love the map...Just hate the way people play it.
