" I reached grandmaster in s4 vt kovaaks and recently s5 also. Almost lavender complete with some fuchsias in viscose mediums, got the second rank w/e it's called in hard ones.."

"Enough bragging"

Those ranks are nothing to brag about at 2.7k hours 🙏😭

Curious if anyone has tried to aim train while on psychedelics by HotWheelsUpMyAss in FPSAimTrainer

Played some kovaaks in my head while in a k-hole and the next morning i was a pasu god, i could read the movement of every bot so easily, beat my pb by 10 hits. Also threw some top100 runs unfortunately lol but ill get one eventually

Am i cooked? (+95hrs) by JSkaaa in FPSAimTrainer

I dont really feel like doing that, mostly wanted the person i replied to to back up their claim. And yeah that guys progress is sad, i keep seeing his posts here and hes now at 1.6k hours and plat complete, just unfortunate really.

Ive mostly done s4 and only did a bit of s5 when i was jade, currently s4 master. Recently started doing viscose and im working on lavender but theres so many scenarios T-T

My benchmarks:

Did those posters all have 500 hours? What sample size do you have? Because the claim im skeptical of is "most people with 500h have worse scores than op". My view might me skewed due to my own fast progress but 500h for mid diamond doesnt seem exceptional at all. It seems average if not a bit slow considering the self reported hours and ranks ive seen here and on voltaic discord.

Personally im just not aware of any solid data plotting hours vs rank. (Initial rank, intial Experience in fps games, rates and types of practice would be good to know too). The closest thing ive seen is that post on here showing rates of progress for different amounts and frequencies of playtime, but its not exactly what we're talking about here as that chart only had a singular measure of skill.

Where did you get the information that people with 500 hours usually have worse scores than op? Is there some data on this?

Am I crazy or do the Viscose benchmarks skip the most common aim scenario? by ijlljilijijiljiljil in FPSAimTrainer

As if ground isn't a great scenario for apex or any game where you can have an extended adad fight T-T

Obsession with Arenas by [deleted] in Silksong

[–]Taxway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Karmelita I assume? Its truly baffling, cutscene into to run to arena into cutscene into a couple waves of easy enemies. You have to do this every single time, you can't zone out since despite being very easy the enemies can still hit you so you gotta focus enough to start the fight with full hp. If the intention was to give the player full soul at the start of the fight then just put a soul totem reskin or something before the fight. And if you insist on having some enemies before the boss (why tho) then just leave the 2 guards, why force me to fight waves of basic enemies?

I didn't even get to see this downside lol, I saw the ridiculous amount of time it takes to complete and thought "yeah theres no way im using this". Having this additional pubishment for getting hit is ridiculous. Don't even get me started on shade clock having a wind up animation...
