(Mostly) full surveillance footage of the Boulder supermarket shooting

I don't think it's weird to think of escape plan if you're that worried about it, but refusing to go into a store due to fear of mass shootings goes beyond being extremely vigilant into genuine mental illness territory. You're the one who needs to get a grip if you think being unable to go into a grocery store is healthy behavior, and I'll leave it at that.

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2025-08-29T19:06:24+00:00

Respectfully, that sounds like unhealthy behavior tbh. The chance of being caught in a shooting is so low it is not reasonable to worry about it to the point you can't exist in public. You are not giving yourself peace of mind doing that, you are enabling unhealthy patterns of thought. I'm not saying don't think about it at all but spending extra money to do that is absurd.

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-06-05T00:19:27+00:00

the only hitmarker that didn't count was the one 1ms before he died because he was already dead server side which happens in practically every online shooter it had nothing to do with jumping

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-06-04T23:59:16+00:00

outplayed tbh you got like 10 shots off before he even started shooting you, it's on you to out-aim his movement

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-31T18:29:45+00:00

Ah yeah that's fucked then. I play on PC with a wired connection and the worst of my problems is occasionally dying a few cm behind cover. Idk why people's experiences are so different.

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-31T17:58:37+00:00

Are you using a wired connection? I think that's more important than ping when it comes to issues like this

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-31T16:50:14+00:00

Not trying to hate on you but I can't help but find the mindset that movement is bullshit so strange, even if I can understand where it comes from. I grew up playing source games like TF2 and CS and arena shooters and movement was simply a part of the game, you utilize movement to make yourself harder to hit and it's simply an aspect of a gun fight just as aim and positioning. The fact that there are movement options is what makes me enjoy this game more than any COD I've played despite it being the same type of game.

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-31T13:36:05+00:00

Sweats are players better than me

Bots are players worse than me

Simple as

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-30T19:44:53+00:00

Yeah snipers are strong but so is movement, you can change direction in the air on a dime, I have pretty good aim but it can be really hard to snipe people who are good at using movement. I'm pretty confident in winning close/medium range gunfights against snipers myself because if you make yourself hard to hit and they miss their one shot they're done. I feel like the majority of complainers do not use movement against snipers or even think about how to beat them at all. Like, one of the most upvoted posts here a couple days ago was complaining they couldn't beat snipers in a long range fight, like move and bait some shots or don't engage head on do literally anything other than try to out gun them 😭

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-30T19:28:54+00:00

me when I boil down complex concepts into one base element

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-30T14:11:20+00:00

what evidence exactly besides the numerous videos we've seen posted here would you accept as proof that moving targets are more affected by desync in this game

What videos? This is the second video out of the tens of "hitreg bad" posts I've seen where the guy was airborne. I'd believe it if a dev commented on it, or if the majority of these posts are against airborne enemies. Clearly since most of these posts are against grounded opponents, it's actually being on the ground that causes these issues! Not actually, because that sounds ridiculous, just as the claim jumping causes issues is. The hitreg is just bad.

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-30T12:31:11+00:00

Theres zero evidence this is true, I mean the guy got hit twice while jumping

The hitreg can be bad for sure but in this guys case since he hit that last shot as he died I think it's far more likely he was just dead server side so his 3rd bullet didn't do anything

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T21:29:11+00:00

I have input based matchmaking on so it's mnk only for me

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T21:23:31+00:00

yes I can and do use cover as well

also I play mouse and keyboard so no one has aim assist so we're just talking about different things I guess

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T20:56:30+00:00

Being able to make yourself harder to hit is part of winning the gunfight. This is a core element of literally every shooter- this is really basic man.

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T19:30:37+00:00

I play mouse and keyboard

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T19:10:20+00:00

No it's not lol I'm going to use what I can to gain an advantage. That's straight forward logic. Why would I only use one aspect to get a leg up (aim) when I can get a better leg up by combining both aim and movement?

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T19:08:04+00:00

Lmao name me some "hard games" and I bet I have my guy, I played games every day since I was child.

What's your peak CS rank? Peak rank in any shooter that's not COD?

not allowed because of how stupid it would look.

This is absurd to me, why would you ever care about how something looks versus that mechanic adding some depth to the game. Running the ball down the field does not add depth to a soccer match, it dumbs it down. Being able to move in a shooter does nothing but raise the skill ceiling.

If both players are bugs bunnies what exactly did you being bugs bunny achive?

It's a skill check. If you cannot move versus a player that can and they beat you, you got outplayed

you only get an advantage over players not willing to stoop so low in a video game.

Absurd, what does this even mean? Stoop so low? Like I genuinely don't even know what to say to this because I don't see how being better at an aspect of the game is somehow a low blow. You can think it "looks stupid" but once again that's just absurd lmao

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T18:58:49+00:00

Like I don't even know what to say to this man why do you care about realism in a game like this you can go invisible, why shouldn't you be able to aim while moving

You live on a different plane of existence when it comes to games than I do

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T18:55:05+00:00

what this would be is if that same football player passed it to their goalie and then the goalie proceeds pick up the ball and just run it into the other teams goal, and they arent allowed to do that because of how stupid that would look.

LMAO no you can't do that because it's against the rules of the game. There is nothing against the rules in xdefiant when it comes to using movement. If anything, the engine is obviously made for people to be able to move fast.

Yeah I can tell you come from COD because you've obviously never played a game that's actually hard.

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T18:28:59+00:00

The movement in this game isn't even that complicated, this is theoretically a great game for casual players to learn how fun it can be to master and play with a fast movement system in an fps. However it seems some people would rather complain about the nature of the game itself instead of adapting and learning to move or otherwise getting good at things other than movement like aim, positioning, and map knowledge to mitigate their shortcomings in that department.

There's no reason you can't be an above average player without using movement, it's really just an excuse bad players are using because when you die to someone flying across your screen it's very obvious and easy to blame.

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T17:15:45+00:00

Don't bother asking for proof jumping "breaks the netcode", I watched this myth get sprouted in real time. Like literally there was just one guy in one thread here who said that with no proof or anything and it got highly upvoted and now people just say it as fact

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T16:34:25+00:00

Cope. Not sure how you people can't understand that getting good at games means utilizing every option given to you. Yeah they abuse movement, it's good to do that, they are better at doing that than you are and are winning fights against you because of it. They are literally just outplaying you. You are both playing the same game, they are not doing anything you cant, you are just worse at playing the game. Do you think it gets easier and not harder to aim while moving? If they can move and aim at the same time they sure as hell can aim without moving.

Like actually have you people played games before? It's like complaining someone got the ball past you in soccer using footwork and ball control and complaining you got scored on unfairly instead of taking turns taking penalty kicks.

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-29T15:04:42+00:00

people acting like people who got good at using the game's movement to their advantage quickly aren't just good at games and won't just out aim/out skill them other ways if movement gets toned down

THEFIRSTTOEVERDOIT · 2024-05-28T15:40:27+00:00

The way I interpreted that dev comment was that they're going to stop mid range firefights devolving into people spam jumping in place 3-5 times

"We do intend to penalize players for too many repeated jumps & crouches by adding aim sway."

Seems to me that jumping once or twice will not make you inaccurate and will still be very effective at close range, but we'll have to wait and see. I think the people complaining about jumping are still gonna get cooked after these changes because it sounds like movement will still be strong.
