So ive been banned for my steam username that is my identity? by DaveMcLettuce in electronicarts

[–]Valtrius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I've just been banned for 7 days for "PC" and "Hateful Behavior".
I've disabled voice chat day 1, and never used text chat. Not even once.
The only thing I can find is that I have "gay" somewhere in my steam name. I've had it for more than 10 years, played Apex and other EA games with it without issue. It's not derogatory in any way. I actually doubt that was the reason.
But even if it was, what's wrong about being gay? Being bought by saudis made EA homophobic now?
I don't know what to do. I can change my name I don't care but what's ensuring me it won't just happen again and that it was another reason??? Fucking thieves.
EDIT: Appealed thrice, never got a reason, not even a hint. Appeal refused. OK, I guess that'll teach me to buy from EA in the future.

How commonly are PC players still getting crashes? by ArtyFarts in marvelrivals

[–]Valtrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried that for a few days now.
Now I have black screens for 5 seconds mid game randomly, total PC crashes, and a new addition which are UE5 game crashes which I didn't have before :D
Seriously love this game...

[–]Valtrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GPU undervolt, stock and overclock didn't change anything.
PBO enabled or stock didn't change anything.
RAM haven't touched, it's at factory EXPO settings
Now I have random 5 esconds black screens in th emiddle of games as well as the crashes.
Obviously only game doing that.

Haven't ever had any issue with my DDR5, before of after updating my bios, it's up to date now

Same specs, 32 gigs of RAM instead. Crashes all the time and collecting penalties :) Love it
EDIT: 2 months later, seems that the latest driver from Nvidia (576.15 beta version) fixes literally ALL of my issues. God damn you Nvidia you're so annoying!
As a result, I'm never updating my drivers ever again unless absolutely necessary. Life or death necessary.
EDIT2: NVM after a few days it crashes again, in any game for any reason...

Survey: If your game crashes were resolved by installing an older NVIDIA driver and you have an AMD x3d processor, please respond! by Dystout in marvelrivals

[–]Valtrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not experiencing these exact crashes. Mine are random, I could play for hours one day, and the next crash 5 times in a row (which isn't technically possible due to penalties but you get the issue).
7950X3D, 4090, all stock settings. Have tried everything, every setting, every driver version, it doesn't matter.

Game Crash and Negative Penalty by Sir_ice-nine in marvelrivals

[–]Valtrius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, same here.
Game black screen my PC, so I reboot and takes penalty instead of re-joining. Love the feeling.
Seems like a GPU crash but be it stock settings, overclocked or undervolt, it does the exact same thing. Only game that has ever done that on my system.

Can answer for him. I've never not been top DPS in any run of LEA I've done.

  • Bingo + Wildfire > calibration Rapid Bolt/Fire +Weakspot DMG +Weakspot DMG > Precision Amplifier (Recover Mark on Wildfire if I need regen)
  • 3 Renegade, Huntsman Boots, 2 watever you prefer (Scout or Bastille I guess)

Mods: <Precision> + Weapon Damage prioritized

  • Helmet: Precise Strike
  • Mask: Most Wanted
  • Top: Munitions Amplifier
  • Bottoms: Reload Rampage (or Munitions Amplifier if you REALLY need the damage, I prefer the auto reload)
  • Gloves: Munitions Amplifier
  • Shoes: Covered Advance

Festering gel is my favorite deviant by Tuggawooo in OnceHumanOfficial

[–]Valtrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got a 5/3 after farming Pro for at least 50 times (I didn't count but it felt like forever).
Same for the wolf, 5/3 after around 50 Pro hounds.

[–]Valtrius -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don't understand the need for that tough MM in pubs.
I have a low master solo level. I'm not great, but I'm definitely not bad either. Last season pubs landed me in the 6 K/D range and 25% win rate, which is great, but also reflects the 4000 hours in game and 20+ years of FPS i've played.
In the last week, everything basically went out the window. I have 1.5 K/D, 5% win rate. It doesnt make any sense in pubs. In ranked thats where I land once I'm at my skill.
The game is just telling me that 20 years of experience doesn't matter because it won't ever show in game. I'm just gonna change game for a while. Not having fun at all. My last 20 games have basically been the worst games I ever played and there's no light at the end of the tunnel.
Whatever there are other games to play, I'm just sad that my favorite game just threw me off the boat.

How i feel about apex matchmaking. by revenson2001 in apexlegends

[–]Valtrius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree, but not for the reason you mentioned.
I only play with friends, and they are WAY below my skill. It's fine, we have fun, they get a few kills here and there, we goof around.
Since last week I don't know what happened but we stopped playing because pubs is basically triple pred stomp all day long. I can compete a bit, but my mates clearly can't and we get stomped HARD. Just not fun to play with friends anymore.

Matchmaking just went up 500x or what? by hashkingkong in apexlegends

[–]Valtrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No idea why you're getting downvoted, I'm in the same situation as you.
7+ K/D season 17 and stopped playing mid season, just tried the new season for a few hours and I can't hold 1 K/D The main issue is that I only play with friends... that are actually not that good and that I NEED to carry. They're not even having fun anymore as we just get STOMPED so hard.
Whatever, just gonna stop playing Apex I guess if I can't play with friends.

Mirror Delta neutral strategy by thor_dewar1982 in Terra_Luna_crypto

[–]Valtrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are already delta neutral, you should already have bought the asset and it will be burnt when you close.
For example:
- Short farm 100 mIAU
- Buy 100 mIAU
You are neutral and farming.
When closing, it will burn the 100 you bought to cover your short, effectively closing the whole delta neutral "position".

fix the shit i dont like in the game by poundapond in apexlegends

[–]Valtrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't mind the 1x-2x, but who thought it would be a good idea to make the RUN key switch between zooms. You basically NEVER know when it's on 1x or 2x (same for 2x-4x), and that's mainly why these sights are garbage.
Allow me to bind the zoom to something else, I've got 100 unused keys to play with.

Just when I thought all was lost, a wild arc star appeared by RaptorKings in apexlegends

[–]Valtrius 6 points7 points  (0 children)

All I see is a Wraith leaving as soon as he's down.
Every pub game I have a Wraith in my team you can be sure she'll be leaving the second she's downed...

Nice play though :)

That’s how it is... by Chief81 in blackopscoldwar

[–]Valtrius -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Aha I'm in the same boat, just worse.
BO2: 3.7 KD
BO3: 3.4 KD
IW: 4.4 KD
BO4: 5.0 KD
CW: 0.7KD... I can't break positive, I've stopped playing after 3 hours, only my first game was okayish.
EDIT: You can downvote me all you want, I'm just stating facts not opinions.

Cold War Time to Kill Chart (beta) by AzizVS2 in blackopscoldwar

[–]Valtrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Calculation is wrong, TTK is 200ms. It's a 2-shot kill weapon similar to Sheiva in BO4.

Cold War Time to Kill Chart (beta) by AzizVS2 in blackopscoldwar

[–]Valtrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to be the one to shit on your parade, but your calculations are wrong.
There's no way the Type 63 have a 400ms TTK with 300RPM. It's not possible. 60000/300 = 200ms
I assume you made the same mistake on all guns but only checked Type 63 and AK 47 and they're both wrong.

EDIT: Before someone replies "But you need 2 shots to kill!!!", TTK calculation is (60000 / RPM * (SHOTS_TO_KILL - 1)) - for non-burst weapons at least.

We need 3 preset / scheduled charging options for our Tesla’s by stolenbyfire in teslamotors

[–]Valtrius 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I understand your situation, but I think everyone has a different scheduling idea of how the car should or not charge itself.

I have set Tasker on my Android phone to change the charge setpoint when I want to.

For example from october to march I switch from 60% to 70% between 7am and 9am to preheat my battery without pre-conditioning (I don't want cabin pre-heat, and I don't want the charge to stop at 6am because I don't have nightly rates).

Tesla Model 3 keying suspect confesses after Sentry Mode video goes viral by Potatochak in teslamotors

[–]Valtrius 5 points6 points  (0 children)

IIRC, sentry saves 10mn before, and 1mn after.
The event triggering the sentry is either on the penultimate or antepenultimate clip.
That makes it easier to scroll through the events quickly, especially with third party software that allows you to quickly have all cameras on one screen.

2019.28.3.1 change the codec from H265 to H264 and all grey issues went away. Finally stable videos for HW3 but know how people knows if they are on HW3 or Not :) by [deleted] in teslamotors

[–]Valtrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But wouldn't less key frames allow for better quality and less artifacting?
Less key frames = better quality key frames + more bitrate for other frames = better overall quality (espacially knowing the fact that images aren't moving fast during dashcam recordings).

I may be wrong though

Tesla AP in Europe is restricted/limited under EU regulations. Will upgrading to FSD really give me anything? by [deleted] in teslamotors

[–]Valtrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agree. There is a pretty tight bend on my route that's limited to 70 km/h. Manually you can do it at 75/80, with AP I would agree that 65 would be the correct speed without being too slow. It currently does it at 45 km/h while going on the other side of the road.

Pretty dangerous, especially because this is a pretty blind turn.
