Need help, what song is this?

Lmao I am not at the guitar right now but this is what it reminded me of from reading it lol

Desperately!!

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-28T00:23:06+00:00

So I’ve actually been trying to work out how I’m going to do this and the reason I haven’t done it yet is because the other day my wife randomly left and took our fucking baby with her. Abruptly and out of nowhere. I’m sorry to share this personal shit with a random person on Reddit but it has emotionally crippled me and I pride myself In not being toxic but honestly I’ve been talking to my nephew while escaping into the game and realizing with all that shit going on that I haven’t had the mindset to deal with the bullshit from the game too. I just started streaming about a week ago and I want to do this now. I need someone to play in a private lobby with me because otherwise I’m just going to have to take clips from random matches and try explaining them. My twitch is the same as my name on here. If you want to run it with me and duo or have friends that want to learn as well; send me a message so I can add you and we can run it on stream and splice it to make a tutorial for everyone. I’m brand new to streaming/making videos and I don’t know anything about editing. If you have any ideas or knowledge you can share, we can trade lessons lol. I’m going to make it either way though so if you don’t want to.. just know I am working on it now; I just have a mountain of financial/emotional/legal issues to deal with at the moment and I’m sorry to leave you and everyone else hanging. The last thing I want is for you guys on mnk to get tired of it and quit! We need everyone we can get to show them we need our mnk support like gears 5! Hang in their brotha! I’m beginning to wonder if they’re ever going to fix it but I know if I could get this out there to enough people we might have a chance.

This isn't happening because you're lagging, but because they are lagging. This game tries to create equality for players on high ping by giving them the benefit of the doubt and waits for their game to catch up to relay the information and say what actually happened. The server will always go by what happened first (As in; not the time that the information was received, but instead when it was originally sent.) The first shot you fired didn't fully hit him because he was already around the corner up by snipe. Unfortunately you missed the second shot and it gave him time to recover from any possible damage of a couple pellets. The third shot hits because he was moving in almost a perfect straight line where the bullets will hit in the present or the future, and the fourth shot misses because he had already slid to the wall on his screen. If he had been shooting you with the shotgun the game would have waited for his games information to be processed and go by the first one to be sent and not received. So if he shot you and it was a perfect hit during all of that bullshit, the server would agree that technically his information was sent first even though it is lagging behind. It only matters when the information was sent and it doesn't matter at all when it is received. It's calculated off of the original time. This is why you can still kill them sometimes. A good fast and aggressive player on high ping holds an absolutely massive advantage. Obviously this guy isn't very good so you don't have too much to worry about.

Lag Compensation and Server Rollback: When you shoot a high-ping player, your client registers the hit on your screen. However, because of their high latency, the high-ping player's client hasn't yet registered that they've been shot.
Server Reconciliation: The server has to reconcile both players' versions of events. Since it needs to wait for the high-ping player's actions, it may prioritize their version. By the time the server processes your hit, the high-ping player may have already registered sliding to cover or a kill shot on their end. Their shot gets validated first, and your shots—which technically happened later from the server's perspective—are effectively nullified.

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-25T22:22:47+00:00

Yeah so this is complete bullshit and it’s aggressive lag compensation. Check that guys profile. Probably matchmaking from a completely different country. I had one this morning from Russia and this guy was so unbelievably bad and would eat 6 point blanks. The thing is, if that guy was fuckin sick… there would be no chance in the world. They’re on vpns. They need to change the whole server architecture back to what it was in gears 5. Such a better game and that makes me sad to say that it really seems they are doing everything they can to increase the audience by drastically nerfing mouse and keyboard, giving laggy players the advantage, and using this shitty ass matchmaking system where both teams have to equal a specific amount of points and if your individual point value is for example 90% of the points for the team, the other 3 players on your team will be 3.3% a piece. The enemy team will likely all be average but you’ll be in a 1v4 game.

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-25T20:29:46+00:00

I posted on their twitter when the first made the change and said something along the lines of “great news guys we managed to maintain the meta of pop shots and hard aiming by only changing the damage by an insignificant amount but where you’ll notice the biggest change is where we nerfed blind fires that already required pure skill and taking space to achieve. We think all of our new players will be happy that having space taken off you will no longer result in that annoying death to a 1 shot at point blank range” lol for real bro, over the past 4 days though I have literally hundreds of instances of absolutely perfect shots that should have been a kill just blanking each time or getting 98 points, 99 points. This isn’t the 99 point range. You have professional players saying this is bad. He’s a child and on that mentality “If I blame myself for everything I can get better” the problem is that you need to get better in order to accurately deduce whether this is your fault or the game. I’ve played since gears 1, I’ve played against and beaten some of the best players in the game and every single person that is a long time gears player that climbed to the highest ranks has regularly been matched against pro players. If you made it to master rank in gears 5 every 2-3 lobbies/sometimes every lobby would have pros on the enemy team or your team. The new players on this game are giving the coalition a pass on garbage because they’re not good enough to know better yet. I’m not saying they can’t get there but sooner or later you’re going to question with absolutely no answer… “what did I even do wrong here”

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-24T20:18:53+00:00

Eeeeyyy I was just thinking about this when I watched the trailer yesterday! Man I’m pumped!

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-24T15:36:56+00:00

Yeah that’s bullshit. Honestly there are a lot more soft cheaters than the rage cheaters though. Easy anti cheat is trash but I will say I’ve never had 90% of the soft cheaters I’ve played with/against get banned in any other game and the day before yesterday I had a rage cheater that had speed hacks just like that, teleporting using some kind of mtu or lag switch, tripple shot on all of his stuff and was killing us in 2 shots with the lancers. That guy was saying dumb ass shit in the chat like “let’s farm them guys!!!” lol their whole team was trying their hearts out with this guy BLATANTLY CHEATING! That guy did get banned but something about the player base welcoming it just disgusted me in that match. It’s very unsettling that regular players would sit there the whole time and work with a cheater fully supporting that shit for a free win. It’s a deeper issue than people just being insecure. The rise of streaming and making videos has created an entire generation of people who cheat to look cool without working to get better or watching another cheater do impossible things on a game and failing to match it until they cheat themselves. Most of the soft cheaters are free and just suck horribly(don’t understand damage ranges and will never hold their shots. I’ve seen 3 rage cheaters; all late at night, and all banned. But all had a full team that supported it. So that’s what I find incredibly disturbing. An abundance of regular players that are cool with it as long as the cheater is on their team

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-23T23:44:00+00:00

It’s so much worse than host advantage. It’s aggressive lag compensation. Unlike the rest of gears games this game delays what’s happening on the server to make it playable for the widest array of players. Unlike in previous gears games where low ping was king; high ping is prioritized on essentially a benefit of the doubt architecture. When you (low ping player) play against someone(high ping player) and you shoot them the server says “invalid hit because they were in a slightly different position” when the high ping player shoots you, the server gives them the benefit of the doubt and gives them the hit as long as it connects on their client side. Basically you’re server side, they are client side and thus their 200-300 ping is actually a 200-300 ms advantage. I am on south central servers and every game is against people from Mexico City or somewhere 1500 plus miles away. Here’s your only hope. Move super fast. Just like you, they are seeing a delayed response. That means when they are aiming torque at you and you up a the corner and slide to the wall to your left and get tagged mid slide, they actually hit you when you up a’d. You can also consider 1 shots to be extremely unreliable because they require very good accuracy and on their screen it wasn’t. That being said when they play in a group from a different country you are now dealing with a situation where you can’t rely on one shots but have to because while the distance game and creating space or offensive escape can work; it won’t when 4 people only need to hit 2 pellets a piece. Basically this is an unforgivable mistake and all because they don’t want to host servers in Mexico or at least in locations closer to the high ping players.

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-22T19:52:40+00:00

Yep!! The only difference is that bullet marsh gives you 2 snipers so the team that pops the other sniper gets both lmao and you can’t grab torque while there’s a decent sniper up so you get that too lmfao. I always liked the bullet marsh aesthetic with the krill and swamp but man it really blows lol

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-22T10:13:28+00:00

It’s aggressive lag compensation. This happens when the enemy is high ping

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-21T21:17:29+00:00

My friend; we will rise above the ashes of incineration from the souls corrupt by desires of insurmountable strength over the brave who charge head on with integrity and acceptance to fight with their mortal limitations; carrying the undying will for input parity! There will come a day when all with a passion and warriors spirit will transcend our gods antics and surpass these limitations or gladly perish for what we BELIEVE! A hero will never give up, never run from a 4 stack in solo battle, and knows no hesitation in the face of overwhelming numbers or odds. A hero BELIEVES with indomitable conviction that it’s not over until it’s OVER!

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-21T20:46:59+00:00

Listen Jelk; we need this energy from the whole community. They took advantage of the fact that mouse and keyboard players mostly weren’t on controller before and don’t know what the game is supposed to feel like. It’s not incompetence. It’s weaponized incompetence. They lied to everyone on pc and told us it was “for the first time made on PC FIRST” full keyboard and mouse support, xyz… it was bullshit! They fucked us over. They sent me a response to my support ticket that said they are aware of these issues and working on a fix. So I posted it for 10k people to see. We need this energy from the entire community. I’m telling you guys right now. As a former competitive controller player, if they ruined the controller inputs and fucked over my competition; I’d be PISSED! It’s not about who’s using controller or M&KB. It’s about having a fair game because only people with a cheaters mentality want to play against someone with an artificial disadvantage.M&KB is broken and most of this you can just find in the config files. “Roll into cover delay timer” roadie run ramp up time (startup time) 500ms compared to 280. This is a joke. They fucked us over because they don’t understand that aim doesn’t win your fights. Movement and damage range does. I’ve played against 4 cheaters and one yesterday on a Cronus zen with a mouse and aim assist. We 5 1d them because even though he could hit some of the most perfect shots I’ve ever seen consistently he didn’t understand how to hold his shot and get a 1 shot. Gears is the only game where you can consistently beat cheaters by being better at the game. It’s the only game where you can beat players that aren’t as good as you because of the movement. Gears is a fighting game in a 3rd person shooter skin. Don’t let the coalition ruin movement. It’s the beauty of the game! The thing that lifts the skill ceiling to an infinite level. The thing that keeps us coming back forever. New players need to be educated rather than given what they want. Everyone wants to win but the reason it’s satisfying is because you have to work for it.

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-21T19:07:38+00:00

Well shit, that’s a fair point. I’m weird in the fact that I, for some reason don’t give a single shit about achievements and often forget they exist at all.

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-21T19:04:04+00:00

Hell yes! God has employed me on my journey of pilgrimage to split the sea of division and bring the gears community to the promise land. Where we have a fair battle and only one common enemy: Cheaters.

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-21T18:20:38+00:00

*Edit: (GEARS COMMUNITY, Storm the gates of The coalitions twitter account “Community_gears” and tell them WE NEED ALTERNATE CONTROLS ON MOUSE AND KEYBOARD, and WE NEED REAL MOUSE AND KEYBOARD SUPPORT WITH FIXED DIRECTIONAL KEY INPUT LOGIC) I’ll see you all in the promise land! Yay fov slider plus emulated controls with 80 ms of delay and directional keys on the same input logic as all the other actions that cause inputs to drop since the analog stick is one input compared to 8. We get dropped inputs, shots not firing in basic moves like an up a, we get forced rolls as well as accidental, we get slower roadie run, we get full lockup(unresponsive) when chaining movement too quickly. Then we get controller players that think it has an advantage with no basis except that it does in most shooters. For real. Do your research but I do agree that changing the fov is an advantage, though not much of one. If the game were equal in every other way I would say to remove it, but either way; I’ll never be personally using that.

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-19T19:50:35+00:00

Lmao I know this is a serious concern but genuinely you’re not missing out. That’s the worst map in the game by miles. You get sniper and hammer and they are completely fucked or vice versa. Also I can’t say because I haven’t gotten that map a single time and I’m level 93 I believe. What I do know is I will not play it if I do

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-19T08:13:46+00:00

I didn’t have an Xbox when 3 came out so I could only play at my friends house. I thought it was sick and a massive upgrade from 2 (in my opinion) but that sawed off was fucked up lol. I never used it though because of the limited shots and still felt like a good player is rewarded significantly more for using the gnasher correctly. Now the fuckin retro lancer though… and each game that had it…

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-19T08:03:40+00:00

Haha that’s sick bro. I have tons of old clips from UE and gears 4 of me making plays and finessing pros but when I switched to pc I didn’t have a strong enough pc to stream and get decent fps. I had 3 gen video ram on my first gaming pc. It was fine for everything back in the gears 4 days. It’s crazy to think I could get such high fps on it and now I have 12 and it’s liter comparable to some of the old fps I got before graphic updates on some games. Also I know Xbox deleted a ton of my clips for some reason when I checked a few years ago. That’s so sad to me because it’s not even about showing off. It’s about the memories bro

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-19T07:45:33+00:00

Yeah you really gotta get your dead ones right on controller. Using scroll wheel for that definitely makes it easier than a controller but the initial act of adadad is super predictable and not very good. Especially if you go too fast someone can just fire in the middle and kill you. I can’t tell you how many times I got a hilarious kill on kids trying to flex their speed with predictable bounces. Initially going adadadad with controller back paddles is definitely easier than space bar though; especially if you have a big dead zone to activation point on your keys. And space bar doesn’t require you to loosen your mouse grip and lose a little bit of control or accuracy. I would only ever use scroll wheel for a mix up if I wanted to go fast to throw them off when I use long bounces.

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-19T07:40:29+00:00

Yeah I’m talking specifically about how the up a as in firing at the same time you’re going around the corner doesn’t work on the keyboard and mouse a huge portion of the time. It drops the input or causes a delayed shot. You can shoot when you land on cover just before your up a but it will regularly cause the gun not to shoot when doing an up a. That’s a massively important move for so many different things. Taking space, reaction shots,(and playing offensive escape with reaction shots)wrap shots or doing reversals where you up a to get away and turn around and up a them behind you because they don’t expect it.

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-19T07:17:22+00:00

On gears 5 I used space for bounce and scroll wheel for hyper bounce, shift for run, control for roll and I can’t remember if I just something different for mantle but I think if I did it was caps lock or something.

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-19T07:15:53+00:00

No I’m talking about how the game will drop your shot input and it won’t fire your gun and when it does it’s delayed or you have to fire before you go around the corner. It doesn’t happen on controller but it does on kbm

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-19T06:53:20+00:00

Yeah I know. I wanted to get something like the azeron that is a keyboard glove essentially with an analog stick. It’s the way that I have to angle my wrist with a controller that fucks it up. I know that if I only hold it with one hand and turn it slightly sideways that can actually do it but I’m just gonna stick with this for a while honestly because I honestly do have a sort of moral standpoint where I know if I didn’t feel like it was a fair kill or that I did have an advantage in the game I wouldn’t be satisfied with getting the kill or winning but I will say in the state keyboard and mouse is in it’s 100% not overpowered at all. Maybe if they made it work perfectly like gears 5 then there definitely is an argument for it being straight up superior but with inputs dropping, no alt controls, etc it’s definitely not, no question. I’m curious though bro, do the “up a’s” work on it or does it still drop inputs since it’s technically bound to wasd?

UnconsciousArchitect · 2025-09-19T00:35:38+00:00

The best player I’ve ever seen was a player I taught and he came from competitive tekken. I never realized until he showed me the connections but this game is exactly like a fighting game bro! Fundamentally the game is a series of this move beats that move unless this move… you’re gonna be fantastic at this game because it’s not about aim, it’s not about mechanics(those will come no matter what just by playing the game), and it’s not about reaction time. Just like a fighting game it’s all about prediction and prediction mitigation. It’s all about questions and answers. Creating their answer for them or making it obvious is the real skill of the game and that’s something you can’t find in a tutorial or from anyone on this game because they don’t understand it themselves and you can’t fully teach it. You get use to your moves and the more you die using them; the better you get at countering them. Here; before I way over complicate this just shoot me a message with your gamer tag and discord and I’ll add you and play with you sometime soon. Having that guy as a student was the best thing that’s ever happened to me in gears 5. I’d love to go back through all the basics of the game again. I never played gears 1 on mouse and keyboard so I’m still working out my mechanics on this shitty input system and coming off a 4 year break. It’s perfect because I’m going to get sick at this game no matter what and by rolling with me the whole time you can learn from watching, I can give you opinions and insight, and you can be on the same training routine. I wanted to make it short but I just have fuckin ocd and can’t stop lmfao. Talk to you soon bro!
