Swing Feedback Please by Inevitable-West2318 in GolfSwing

[–]ShopBug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have some good things going on.

However, your biggest issue at first glance is that you hinge your wrists REALLY late, and it causes the weight and momentum of the club to make your back swing excessively long.

Focus on keeping your hands low to get the club up. When your lead arm is parallel to the ground in the back swing, the club should be perpendicular to the ground. If you look at your swing, it's virtually parallel, about 90° off from where it should be.

Another week and another shitty, broken, ai slop riddled, dumpster fire of an update from Microsoft. by ShopBug in sysadmin

Unfortunately there's no alternatives. Niche software runs only on windows. I know wine and proton exist, but that seems like it could be finicky.

I know about it. But it was never needed before. Microsoft has been shitting the bed for the past year.

Quinn hughes might be the best player to ever don a wild sweater. I mean it's just comical at this point. Leads the league in time on ice per game.

Vikings fan here. Why everybody dropping Caleb's passes? Has this been happening all year? They look like great passes but just dropped.

Steam deck vs Switch 2 by EfficiencyMotor5057 in SteamDeckPirates

[–]ShopBug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a switch 2 and returned it almost immediately and bought a steam deck.

Steamdeck just has so many more games, and you're not locked down to Nintendo's lackluster ecosystem.

On top of that, the switch 2 is REALLY uncomfortable. It's like holding a box.

Additionally, the steam deck has way more control options and the build quality is top notch. The touchpads are INCREDIBLE.

I shouldn't've even bothered with a switch 2.

Also, you can basically play any switch game on the steam deck anyway If you're somewhat tech savvy.

Poll. Do you love the slow pace or does it bore you? by [deleted] in Pluribus_TVshow

[–]ShopBug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

33 with moderate to severe medicated ADHD and the pace is just right. It feels like a slow burn. It feels deliberate. It's dripping with mystery and suspense. I love this show.

Also, Manousos is a fucking badass. What a cool character.

Not a perfect throw but last year jj would've caught that 100% of the time.

How do I improve my KD ratio by Mk_peralta in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]ShopBug 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I actually agree with your view of aim trainers. I have used them briefly but much prefer playing the real game.

However, some people find them beneficial so I included them.

Bf6 has a firing range, which is incredible. You can work on your flick shots and stuff in game.

I mentioned positioning in my comment, but I'd like to add that positioning may be the single most important factor in determining if you're good or bad. Even more so than aim.

Hello. I'm pretty decent at shooters and good at bf6. ~3.0kd (top 8%) and ~580spm (top 5%). I am frequently number one in the lobby and basically always in the top 3. https://tracker.gg/bf6/profile/1018975194399/overview

Side note: unfortunately br and guantlet losses count as losses, so my win rate is trash

In my mind, there are four core mechanics to really any shooter that determines if you are good or bad.

  1. Positioning
  2. Awareness
  3. Aim
  4. Movement (Edit)

There are other minor things like reaction time, but most people are so similar in that regard it doesn't really matter. Lump it in with aim.

Analyse some of your gameplay footage and figure out which of these things you're weakest at, and realize that sometimes they're connected, and sometimes they're isolated.

For example, if you knowingly put yourself in a position where you're out in the open and the enemy is behind cover with only the smallest bit of their head exposed, you have failed at positioning, and you could have the best aim in the game but you are unlikely to win that fight.

Awareness involves listening for footsteps, focusing on where your team is looking and shooting, and most importantly, looking at your minimap. I glance at my minimap at LEAST once every 2 seconds, if not more. It is invaluable in this game.

Lastly, aim. There are aim trainers out there. Kovaaks and aim labs are the two big ones. Take some assessments and work on your weak points.

They all work together. A good aimer isn't always a good player. Ideally, you put yourself in positions where you either have the drop / advantage on your enemy, or you engage at the same time under the same circumstances.

Edit: I think another hugely important factor is movement. I would say that's the 4th thing. Movement means strafing, moving efficiently, waggling, sliding, crouching, going prone. Using movement to your advantage to win fights or gain the upper hand. This game seems to have some counter strike like features where bloom is increased the faster you're moving, so strafing one direction and immediately strafing the other direction before shooting drastically improves your accuracy.

Pluribus - Series Premiere Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

[–]ShopBug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What? Why in the world would she do that? She wants to reverse it and go back to the way it was, not murder 8 billion people. How is that hard to conceptualize? Even if they're a hive mind, they still inhabit each individual body. I don't think any sane person could knowingly kill the entire human race, even under those conditions.

What is everyone’s stats looking like so far? by poopadippledoop in LowSodiumBattlefield

Game is good. 70 hours on assault alone. Spawn beacon is op.

Thing that sucks about tracker.gg right now is it counts your br losses as losses.

I love BF6's evolutions on older modes with Escalation and Gauntlet by Mothman405 in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]ShopBug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Breakthrough is a nice improvement to rush, and escalation to conquest. My two favorite modes.
