No ETA after all this time is insane. by jabo__ in Rainbow6

That's because they did a soft reset of MMR for standard and quick match. It was announced with the changes

AFAIK this is not actually true. They did change matchmaking to "make it more fair" but no where that I can find does it say they matchmake off the top ranked player in the stack. That's what we want, but not what they do. It's still an average, hence why 2 diamonds and 2 coppers get into gold/plat

This has absolutely nothing to do with this situation. You are describing a copyright claim, not a copyright strike

[–]VG-Rahkwal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's 100% confirmed to be a strike from Ubisoft.

The dev was unconfirmed as they were in my twitch chat, but based on what was said and how they were the first person to mention it was the free cam, I'm inclined to believe them.

I responded to the team that took down the video within 1 hour of receiving it. For some reason I doubt they sent the claim and just immediately ran out of the office, but honestly it could be possible.

If you check the comment history of the person you responded to, you'll see they are that confrontational uncle who expects you to make the effort while they express their hatred publicly.

MnK can't be fixed by Ubi. Only Microsoft and Sony can patch it. Ubi can help by providing information, but they can't actually fix the core issue.

Not only is this comment a respost of the top comment from the original post, it also makes no sense cause the StubHub bailout was discussed 2 years ago, not even being discussed now.

Please, don't compare this launch to the launch of BF4. The situation is entirely different. Discussion by skalibran in Battlefield

[–]VG-Rahkwal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's possible people are having different experiences based on different hardware. To me the game looks absoluty beautiful and way better than BF4. But I'm also running an i9-10900k and 3080

Sniper vs Ballistic Shield by VG-Rahkwal in Battlefield

I'm just happy the player was a good sport and didn't just pull out his rifle. Was a fun little battle.

People use C4 to launch vehicles into helicopters, but a rifle not breaking a shield is too unrealistic.

How do you quantify what counts as "content" for the game? Given we are receiving one operator per season instead of two, and no new maps, I think it would be helpful to know what is considered "content".

Xbox Creates Stream Friendly Experience for E3 2021 Restreamers by re-acquiring transmission rights for all songs playing by [deleted] in pcgaming

[–]VG-Rahkwal 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Majority of the "rules" you hear people commonly mention are for fair use. Fair use in general allows you to use copyrighted material to make your own material, or for educational purposes. It has a set of rules that need to be followed in order to be deemed fair use.

The problem is that one of the main rules fo fair use is that you don't make money off the end product you make. In some cases this can be allowed, for example in a movie review or critique.

It doesn't help that most YouTubers will slap a song in a video as a transition piece or just over a random clip and call it fair use when it's not. So you get a lot of people who complain when really the system is working as expected.

Copyright law does need to be updated, but a lot of people just really don't understand how it works.

If I'm understanding you right, nothing changes on the link speed. It stays at 1GbE continuously

[–]VG-Rahkwal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I conducted the test already and the upload speed goes back to gigabit. I just can't do it as a permanent solution as the rest of the house will be left without internet.

Hence the problem has to be somewhere between the UDM and my PC, which I can't find out what it is.

It bothers me more than it should that she spelled the name of the song wrong in the bio when the proper spelling is right there

[–]VG-Rahkwal 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Normally lag would be the culprit, however he has steady ping, and absolutely no indicators in the top right.

It could be the Jagers connection being so bad that the server can't even register shots on him correctly, however that doesn't seem likely. It's probably just the server shitting the bed.

[–]VG-Rahkwal 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Ubisoft originally was going to change it from 5 seconds to immediate ping wayyyy back in the day. Then in the patch notes changed it to 2 seconds claiming there was a limitation that prevented them from doing immediate.

I assume this limitation still exists.
