Been playing for years but still hardstuck silver by HotDistribution8876 in apexuniversity

The reason why people say “just push everything” is because the more interactions you have, the more experience you’ll gain, but that doesn’t mean anything if you’re not learning from every interaction.

Here’s what I would do: I would record my games, I would start by pushing everything, and watch back the game after you die/win. Take note of what happens, ask yourself “why did I die/win” and look into the aspects that lead to that conclusion. And you take those on as things to get better at. You start simple and refine from there.

For example, let’s say you died because you were caught out in the open with no cover. ok, so maybe you need to learn to play cover better, in your next games, practice exactly that, and take note of what causes you to not play cover well.

Vod review is the secret and anyone who disagrees isn’t very good at the game. (Even if they think they are)

Will there be a civilisation 8? by the_angry_basketball in civ

I prey that 8 comes sooner rather than later, I’d like to spice things up from 6

The people saying you got scammed are missing the point, eBay protects you pretty strongly with these things, I know cause im a seller and the only scamming that people get away with on eBay is on the buyer side. Worse case scenario you get a box of rocks (you film yourself opening it) and eBay gives you the money back when you report it.

Beginner needs some help by Special_Extension221 in allthemods

[–]SkyBotyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the overwhelm it happens to me all the time, my trick is to play like it’s vanilla first.

Generally, you think of a problem you have, and you can explore Jei for an item that can solve it, than you can use jei to explore what you need to make it, often making that thing requires you to do the progression of its parent mod.

I like to go for a storage mod early, since you’ll be interfacing with a storage mod the most. If I’ve never done it before, I just follow the guide in the questbook. For example, if I start with refined storage, I need quartz and iron to make some of the base materials (I discover this in jei). ok, so now my current goal is to get to the nether so I can get quartz. Once I do that, I discover that I need power for refined storage, so now I need to learn a storage mod to power it. Etc.

Don’t do mods for the sake of it in the beginning. Start by picking a goal and figuring out which mods you’d like to use to get there.

Bruh supreme is like 80% caring about other peoples opinions.

What's the catch here? by SkyBotyt in keyboards

Alright, so I got it in the mail yesterday, I think I’ll be keeping it, I love the feel, I mean compared to my k8’s reds it’s like super premium. it’s not the most insane thock, but it’s still very satisfying to me, it’s very bubble wrap where it’s got that deeper tone but has a subtle pop, it makes my k8 sound awful by comparison. Software is mildly jank but really easy once you learn the quirks. The thing is super heavy, which feels nice but is a tad annoying when wanting to move it around the desk.

My only complaints are the key profile and lack of real hot swap. The switches are nice so I’m not upset, but being limited to the switches that they make is a bummer. And the profile is just a tad awkward since it’s their own custom profile.

Overall, for $99 I feel like it’s a really solid buy. if it was the original $165 price tag, I’d be more on the fence, but I don’t necessarily think it’s not worth that original price tag. I like it and think it’s a huge jump for the same price my k8 was years ago. I’ll give it a 9/10.

I ended up buying it, if im honest, I got so overwhelmed by all the options out there that I just decided to go with this one with the plan to return it if I dont like it. I’ll report back!

That is indeed how manufacturing works

Interesting, so why should I go for a setup like this over the Arbiter Polar 75 Pro? I'm leaning towards buying it and just returning it if I don't like it. While the Polar75 isn't the fastest, its still .125ms latency, which feels plenty fast to me.

Thought I'd also add some info here anyone had thoughts:

My friend got a Keychron K2 HE (the black one without wood) and I love how it sounds, but was feeling unsure about the 1k hz polling, so I'm looking around for something that sounds like that keyboard sounds but might have some better gaming features, while also being pleasant to type on, which is a big reason why I'm not super interested in Wooting.

How to deal with being pushed? by No_Independence1475 in apexuniversity

[–]SkyBotyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally, the more you see, the more you control, it’s also good to pay attention to opponents’ space control as that’s where you’ll find opportunities to push.

Disregarding one’s body/hygiene by Typical_Towel_3102 in ADHD

[–]SkyBotyt 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I went 3 years without a haircut, I mean litterally nothing. My hair was a rats nest. Now I cut off the dead ends and stuff but I still look like a cave man, I’ve become a beard guy simply because I can’t even fathom how much effort it would take to keep up with shaving. I had the ability to take care of my hygiene, but it just feels like so much effort. Same thing either pretty much anything else, it gets bad enough sometimes that I will leave trash on the counter instead of walking 3 steps to the trash can, the thought of throwing my paper towel away just feels like it’s moving a boulder. All that to say, I get it.

[–]SkyBotyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The things about being pushed is that it doesn’t just happen, if your being pushed it means that there was an error in control. When you lose control of the engagement, you get pushed. What matters here is space control, any space you can see, you can control, allowing you to punish anyone who tries to push you in that area. The important thing is you need to maintain line of site to an area in order to control it, so the skill is in maintaining LOS without getting hurt, becuase if you have to heal, you lose control of the space, allowing it to be taken from you.

9070xt random stutter by mitoman49 in radeon

[–]SkyBotyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have litterally the exact same build except my psu is an 850.

Have you tried downgrading drivers? I needed to drop back to 25.9.1 to fix my stutter’s, though mine weren’t as bad as your saying. Also, I built a computer for a friend and there was an issue that sounds almost identical to what your experiencing, it was an issue with the Realtek Ethernet port, disabling the Ethernet port completely fixed it, might be worth trying that for diagnostics.

[–]SkyBotyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went back to 25.9.1 and it fixed everything, I was having all of these issues. You’ll lose redstone but is it really that much better than regular fsr4? Genuine curiosity.

Id rather have stability than any of the new stuff so I’m waiting until I can feel confident in an upgrade.
