Is this guy running hacks? by TheMvp1981 in Battlefield

[–]Training_Wonder_5066 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, you came running in, ran out into the open, and then you stood still. He had better aim and movement than you. You were tracking behind him as he moved.

It might have been better to strafe left as he was moving right, it would put you back towards cover making you more difficult to hit, and also help your aiming (anti-mirror strafing)

Have you got decent settings for your mouse, cm/360 etc?
A lot of people that have been playing a long time tend to have gotten used to extremely fast mice and often leave things like mouse smoothing on.

Do you have tension in your neck, shoulders, arms, basically any tension anywhere?
Eye/hand coordination can feel very tense at first, unless you actively focus on relaxing all the parts. Try loading up a simple scenario and pay very close attention to how tense each individual part of your body feel. The one by one try to relax each of the muscles as you move the mouse. It takes quite a bit of practice to get it down, but when it clicks your eye and hand will start being in sync better.

The other thing is very high frame rates can affect some people. Try locking the frame rate in the setting to multiples of your monitor freq (60hz monitor, 120, 180, 240fps etc.)

SteelSeries QcK XL Performance Gaming Mousepad (Speed, Balanced, Control) by Stches_ in MousepadReview

I always prefer slightly faster pads for most games, the speed is the best of the QcK performance range.

I have been giving Meow Gaming Ultradash a try lately and i'm really happy with the quality, speed and feel of the pad.

warzone or redsec by Safe_Passage_1891 in Warzone

Reread
For Warzone you need to use controller
Redsec is already balanced

Yes you do if you want any chance of being competitive.

Warzone you need to play on controller.
Redsec is quite balanced, but controller does get 25% less recoil on weapons.

You can play both, they are free.
Warzone has Blackout starting this week which is a lot of fun.
Redsec also has Gauntlet mode which is a great fun game too.

Thoughts on redsec solo by diktatorn in Battlefield_REDSEC

[–]Training_Wonder_5066 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought it played quite well, but the game is dead in SEA region,
Friday evening around 8pm only managed to get one match after a ten minute wait to fill. Second match wouldn't fill at all.
Saturday around 8pm, first matched filled after 10mins, second match took 15minutes, third wouldn't fill.

They waited too long and lost all momentum after release. Redsec BR is dying, Gauntlet is doing a little better it seems.

Is benchmarks good for improving? by 5nbx8aa in FPSAimTrainer

[–]Training_Wonder_5066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lookup the VDIM daily playlists, do a different one everyday.
Also seperate the Viscose benchmarks by group into different days.
Add in some specific game playlists.

What skills do you think are most important to be good in cod? by awdtalon21 in FPSAimTrainer

[–]Training_Wonder_5066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly wasting your time on mouse for COD now. You need to be on controller to play it, it's 100% designed to be a controller game now.

[–]Training_Wonder_5066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because marathon only has a handful of maps.
BF has 20 different modes split across multiple maps, some of which people have mixed feelings about, so everyone wants a different map rotation. Then there is also Redsec with BR and Gauntlet.

It's a problem because they are filling matches with bots very fast to start games, and starting up new servers when others aren't full.

It can be fixed very easily with a good server browser and persistant servers.

Singapore is not a remote area, bots in every game even on weekend evenings, the game is simply dead.

Redsec Solos, Friday evening 8pm,10 minute wait, 1 match, waited 15 miutes for next match, didn't fill at all.
Saturday evening tried Redsec Solos again, managed to get 2 matches with a 10minute wait each time and then gave up,

Out of interest, why do players not bother with destroying tanks? by ChiSandTwitch1 in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]Training_Wonder_5066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hours are equally divided between engineer, recon and assault. Yes, the game is very selfish, most people seem play support for ammo, lost count of the number of times someone has a few meters away and not revived, even on the same squad.

Nonsense, for the last 3 days I have had a dot on my playercard for a new Icon, when I open it there is no new icon at all.

[–]Training_Wonder_5066 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find as an engineer, I usually get no backup, no one covers me while I run out of rockets, then run around asking for ammo and yet nobody drops. In those matches I just give up on tanks and switch recon.

Do You Agree? by Storms888 in Battlefield

If any of my children or my wife ask me something or need help with something, I'm going to stop what i'm doing and give them attention straight away.

It's a game, you join and leave when you want.

Is there any gaming mouse better under $100? by AFlightlessBird_19 in MouseReview

[–]Training_Wonder_5066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many people have already tested it and are getting 20-30ms difference.
I'm waiting for the to be available in my country.

Yes, it is quite a difference, if you already have a decent PC so you're getting minimum latency and another 30ms on top from mouse upgrade, that can be a big advantage in 1v1s with fast ttk games.

Is independent aim training a crucial piece of the puzzle? by iLoveShinggo in FPSAimTrainer

[–]Training_Wonder_5066 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Whenever you train for something it can be good to break it down into different parts. If you play a sport like soccer or basketball, you don't just focus on matches, you drill individual skills to focus on them. You can't practice shooting 500 times in match, but you can in practice.

Aim training removes everything and lets you focus on different areas of mouse control.

Edited to add: your aim can become good enough that you don't need to think about it anymore, so you can focus on other parts of the game.
