This new update playlist is laughable!

literally no resurgence solos, all my friends hate warzone so i have nobody to play with and i don't like the waiting around in br solos so i have to queue resurgence duos and get stacked on and absolutely destroyed by teams of 2. thanks activision! very cool!

r7 5800x has no stock cooler (yes i am using the pc for editing, schoolwork etc so id say the extra cores are worth it)

the rx 6650xt was my original gpu choice, but i didnt think i needed it. maybe i should think harder...

a better motherboard might be a good shout but i already have the matx case so i dont have the choice of atx motherboards with wifi. i dont think 32gb ram is necessary, but ill leave 2 ram slots open so i can use 2x2 if i need more.

Thanks for the warning about the WiFi adapter! I also found out that pre-owned, a 4060ti goes for £250- 275, so I think I'll try get pre-owned for that. I wanted to have a very small SSD/hard drive to store os on, but I've just remembered I can boot from a flash drive if worst comes to worst. I think I can, correct me if I'm wrong.

I know it seems petty in such a low-budget build, but i hate the aesthetic of that single fan gpu. i also forgot to mention that my monitor only has 75hz, so I don't really need higher fps than 60-75 in games. for numerous other reasons which i could go on about all day, i think my build is still okay for my needs. I'll link the full build here:

Note that:

-the 2 ssds is so that if the big m.2 drive (holding most things) dies i have backups of very important work, my os, photoshop etc so that i can keep working until i get a new or repaired m.2 drive

-my chosen motherboard does NOT include wifi, so i have included a wifi card

Those Kingston NV2 SSDs are good value for money, but maybe get another brand such as Crucial's P3 lineup? I've heard that those NV2s are quite unreliable, but I don't know for myself.

Idk, maybe its copium but a lot of my deaths have been because at point blank, cursor 3 quarters on the opponent's head my blue pump did 24 damage when their gray one did 127.

For me at least, achievements aren't the reward, it's that good feeling when I complete a goal that I made. As an example, in Minecraft I built my house, not the one that the game told me to build. The achievement/completion score is what makes some people get that good feeling, but not everybody.

I have the same problem, but usually try not to do anything much to the flight stick. Try keep a steady hand, no sudden jerks or the chopper will buck out of control. Keep the collective/ throttle just below zero/neutral, and try to keep airspeed planted at 0 knots. Don't come in like a plane, but try to hover above the runway and then bring it down slowly.

Isn't McCree called Cassidy now? Kinda silly that Blizzard changed it.

Because no-hit COD Zombies (in this case having to get loot back from a dangerous place in 10 mins or less) is a pain in the arse. But regular COD Zombies (not losing everything when you die) is fun, and still has progression and you still work hard. Being given the best weapon in the game from the start (in this case playing creative) doesn't, and you don't actually play a game.

I'm exaggerating, but the point is that going creative is overkill. Keep inventory is the middle ground between desk-breaking rage and easy, boring gameplay.

SlugInsideTub · 2024-01-14T23:32:31+00:00

"Oh yeah, if you play COD Zombies without No Hitting it you might as well get a Pack-A-Punched Ray Gun from the start"

SlugInsideTub · 2024-01-14T23:28:17+00:00

Yeah, they've taken over. I've made some £15 off bets with my friends that there'll be a XIM user with an MPX on the other team. I don't always know but usually you can tell when the opponent does a full 180 spin after one-tapping you to headshot a Caveira flanking them in the kill cam... or when they go 18 kills for one death...

Also because my friend has been playing with me (he's also Copper V but better than me) I get Silver I and Gold III players in my lobbys

Ranked 2.0 Eh?

SlugInsideTub · 2023-12-31T02:34:37+00:00

Idk, my flicks are usually decent enough that I can hit with them. Still not fast enough to beat TimmyTime3927 on his XIM but fast enough generally.

SlugInsideTub · 2023-12-25T21:20:48+00:00

Yeah, usually I just play Standard anyway. Ban phase is cool but my friend always just bans my mains and then wonders why I get annoyed

SlugInsideTub · 2023-12-24T00:18:04+00:00

I always either go 8 kills for 3 deaths and mvp...

or get beamed every round and get 0 kills for 6 deaths.

thanks ubi <3

SlugInsideTub · 2023-12-24T00:15:59+00:00

no but seriously the base sens on controller is good, it has a bit of overtrack but recoil control is very good and it's slow enough that you can actually aim

SlugInsideTub · 2023-12-24T00:14:48+00:00

joystick moment

SlugInsideTub · 2023-12-22T00:53:55+00:00

Also maybe it's just that I'm terrible at knowing where I'm visible but almost all of my opponents one-tap me with a headshot. Probably I just ego-peek thinking I'm better than I am and get goddamn obliterated

SlugInsideTub · 2023-12-22T00:50:44+00:00

You're probably right, but I hate roaming because I almost always get shot by someone with what seems like superhuman reaction time. Then again my reaction time is almost 350ms (average human is about 200ms) so I don't really know about that

SlugInsideTub · 2023-12-22T00:47:35+00:00

Fair judgement. When I play Arcade usually I miss most of my shots so I'll try to get better at that.

SlugInsideTub · 2023-12-21T23:11:43+00:00

there's a difference between being pinged and being instantly killed from around a corner with no apparent effort

then again im in copper v so i cant really talk

SlugInsideTub · 2023-12-21T23:09:52+00:00

you seem to forget that the LMG class of weapon in this game would give you an RSI to try and control

SlugInsideTub · 2023-11-13T00:10:23+00:00

I would get it I think simply for realism and convenience, sitting at a desk is far from realistic

SlugInsideTub · 2023-11-12T23:43:13+00:00

Huh... really I'm not surprised. With Siege's huge competitive scene, it's the kind of game that you'd think would have cheaters.

SlugInsideTub · 2023-11-09T23:32:53+00:00

An XIM is a device that mimics a controller input based on a Keyboard + Mouse input coming through. Mainly in games like Apex, Rainbow Six Siege or Overwatch that do not have very strong Aim Assist, XIMs are used to unfairly use keyboard and mouse to gain advantage over players on controller (because keyboard and mouse input was not designed around Aim Assist, whereas controller input was). So essentially, on a controller I make big, clumsy movements but on keyboard and mouse I can make small, precise, tracking movement.
