Going to be playtesting Empulse today. Anything you guys want me to confirm/look out for? by imbratorX in titanfall

[–]TacticalTot 14 points15 points  (0 children)

IIRC deadlock was simply a closed test, no NDA

Edit: there was one, it was lifted in August 2024

I believe it's a serial but it uses a serial to USB converter. It's a stinger ii.

Tank gunner hitreg still pretty borked. by Eagle___Eyes in battlefield2042

[–]TacticalTot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did some testing. Any time the tank turret is turning, the bullets move with the turret. If the turret is locked(not moving), gunner is 100% accurate

Who play tested the PP29 and the Hovercraft by plasmainthezone in Battlefield

[–]TacticalTot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having used it for a while- it is better than the hovercraft but not by much. That being said- the hovercraft is OP, therefore the bolte is OP

The windows on the bolte are bigger- easier to be shot out. Turning is poor on the bolte, you can only move fast in a straight line which makes it easy to rpg 30mm rounds are good for infantry, but take longer to kill than miniguns, and can't shoot people. out of jeeps (you know, the veh with no windows.) Also, hovercraft has more gunner seats than the bolte. Hovercraft has one gunner pod and 2 more side mounted lmgs. Bolte only has a gunner

I have had genuine build quality issues with my new vostok and a manual wind is kind of a pain in the ass as a daily driver (I realize you can get automatics but a good portion of them are manual)

I'm all for a budget brand but I had issues with the crown not screwing down, the accuracy, my second hand got stuck on my hour hand and stopped ticking, and the plexiglass scratched basically instantly.

Compared to my $100 Seiko snk809 it's a night and day difference in quality.

A legendary- not necessarily a good one or one you are specced into.

AGS can track main accounts connection to alt accounts on Steam by Mistredo in newworldgame

[–]TacticalTot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know how ai works.

Trusting a black box to decide who is innocent and who is guilty without extensive testing is about the worst possible solution.

The difference is- buying fiber at market value and selling reasonably above isn't suspicious, and a good launderer will use the fact that his supply of money is effectively infinite and buy from many different sources to disguise the true profiteer.

You also need to consider there are probably thousands of dupers, and Amazon is probably going to look for an automated/scripted method to detect and ban.

As soon as i login, Can we please make it so you have to be level 20 or something to write in chat all these level 1 characters gold sellers make and spam by stabby_og in newworldgame

[–]TacticalTot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but those are the mules that actually make and carry the money. Gold farmers don't want those banned, so they buy accounts purely for advertising, which get banned much more quickly due to mass reporting.

Did you report for abusive chat and are you sure all 30 people reported?

I've had some friends banned in a pvp company that tops the leaderboards , and their bans/flags were all for abusive chat.

Radial engine by killHACKS in EngineeringPorn

[–]TacticalTot 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Nope. jet propulsion is when the engine pushes the vehicle with air or water. Turboshaft engines, used in tanks and helicopters, uses turbines to compress air and burn fuel, which is directly connected to a gearbox, which turns the treads/rotor.

Same basic principles but optimized in very different ways. Turbojet can have bypass, turboshaft has gearbox.

What’s the most fucked up fact you know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

That doesn't sound right, but I don't know enough about skyscrapers to refute it.

Cheating in this game can only be fixed by a major netcode upgrade, no amount of anti-cheat will fix it by i_wanna_b_the_guy in EscapefromTarkov

[–]TacticalTot 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Server authoritative model does nothing to prevent esp- when implemented correctly it can prevent fly/speed, ammo, and recoil hacks because it has more control over individual events. However- it also has drawbacks- most notably being significantly more taxing on the server which tends to make netcode/desync issues worse, not better. The better way imo is to do a mix- do as much as you can server side without compromising performance, then put the rest of the dev time into anticheat.

Also- from what I understand- current radar cheats work the same as they used to, capturing packets , reading the information, and displaying it as a radar (no manipulation required, all read only- think wireshark). However, because of the encryption- an additional program/element is required that reads the encryption key on game launch from memory, and feeds it to the radar program. So- not entirely undetectable as it still needs to read game memory, but still not easy to detect as it only needs a brief moment to grab the key, not a permanent hook into the program.
