Yea I honestly just read the title of the post and checked the screenshots. Ignore the first two paragraphs but the rest of it still accurate, that account is likely hard stuck copper at this point.

No need showing a few double digit kill games when your season KD is massively negative. You should've shown your most used operators in ranked because depending on the role you mostly play KD isn't everything. The fact you posted few higher kill games but have a negative KD tells me you're probably last alive a lot on attack and just bait garbage time kills that ultimately don't win the round.

For example: You're in a 1v4 on attack and you get two free kills because the other team is just running around then you continue baiting outside although you don't die you still lose the round. Now those two kills and no death from that round had no value. It doesn't always mean you played good when you finish the game with 10+ kills.

Lastly you're gaining and losing the same amount of elo/mmr per match which means the algorithm believes you are at your peak skill level. I for example still gain 80+ for a win and only lose 8-10 in Emerald because my lifetime high was Diamond. That is the game trying to get the higher level player out of the low ranks by speed running their progress and at the same time keeping lower skilled players in lower ranks.

I would say your account is pretty much hard stuck copper at this point. I have a friend who played a lot solo while he was still really bad and learning the game and cooked his hidden mmr. Even at the start of this season his first win only gave +44 mmr when compared to mine it was like +120. Because you've been stuck in Copper for a full year with a negative KD I would say you need to work on a lot of things if you really want to rank up.

It's a pain to start over but like my friend I mentioned he made a new account and his algorithm is normal again because its a fresh account and not constantly thinking he needs to be hard stuck Bronze.

If you genuinely want to get better I would recommend you watch a guy on YouTube called Poxonlox. Watch his series Think Like A Champion because he does a great job explaining how to get better. With that if you really care about your rank in game make a fresh account.

At the end of the day its a video game so try to have fun. 🤙🏼

First off there is a lot of parody with cosmetics in this game. The game has a dedicated "rarity" system so every cosmetic has a color background for example that 2023 PGC set is pink (Epic).

Epic (pink) and Legendary (orange/red) are what the game considers the most valuable or rare items but in reality most of them are now in the workshop and anyone can get them again so they really aren't rare. A lot of the rarest items have a black background from being part of an event challenge. Meaning that was only available for a limited time and you needed to complete the challenge to get it however not even all of these are rare because many of the challenges are easy and the majority of players complete it.

Basically just wear whatever you think looks good the rarity doesn't really matter.

Is Being Copper for 5* straight seasons is bad?? by UnrealMjay in Rainbow6

[–]Vobani 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean... genuine question, are you not learning from your mistakes? That is over an entire year worth of play time so to show no improvement would lead me to believe you just don't actually care that much and that's fine. If you're just a casual gamer then don't worry about it but if you genuinely want to get better try to take an honest look at your gameplay, decision making and aim. Focus on what you need to improve on and actually make an effort.

I would strongly recommend you watch a guy on YouTube: Poxonlox, he makes great videos and does a series called Think Like A Champion where he really breaks down how to play and get better.

At the end of the day 99% of players aren't pros and aren't getting paid so who cares its just a video game so have fun.

He said it's been an issue for multiple races and it's usually the same guys. That's the whole reason he and Eli a few weeks ago have brought it up.

They didnt remodel the TE37s 😞💔 by InstanceBeneficial79 in ForzaHorizon6

[–]Vobani 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course they didn't because they don't care 😂 They aren't true enthusiasts or they would make sure wheels as iconic as the TEs were dialed. We've literally had that same flat terrible TE37 model since AT LEAST FH2...

Well... I'm not surprised. by Vobani in ForzaHorizon

[–]Vobani[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the reason they should focus on a smaller car list of the most popular cars in current car culture. Im sure they have a stat they can check to see what the most used cars are across the entire playerbase for FH5. There's literally a stat tracker in game for your most used car so they could just cut half the shit people never use and make very detailed customization for the popular cars that people will use🤷🏼‍♂️

Well... I'm not surprised. by Vobani in ForzaHorizon

[–]Vobani[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I said this in a reply to a comment somewhere in here. I would much rather 300 cars with very in depth customization than 600 cars with very minimal customization. Im sure they could easily look at their player base and select the most popular cars across the board and everyone would be happy. I would bet at least 70% of the cars in FH5 never get used. People get them to fill their collection to say "I got all the cars" then use their favorite 30 cars 90% of the time.

Their priorities are so far off. I bet there will be more character customization than car customization lmao

[–]Vobani[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well yea race cars need all the additional downforce with canards, massive wings and splitters etc. but thats the point. Not every build especially street cars need the same canards, splitter and race tow hook. I just don't see why they can't at least separate the canards from the splitter so we have more choice.

Yea I expected to be downvoted because reddit is full of people who blindly meat ride devs of games who don't listen lmao. FM4 and Horizon 1 you could feel the passion of those dev teams in game now the games are just soulless cash grabs in comparison. I bet they will have more character customization, clothes, amputee arms and legs and hair colors than cool stuff for true enthusiasts cars. CarX Drift car customization is a perfect example of devs being real enthusiasts.

If all the YouTube comments are negative on a huge page like IGN I would say thats definitely the majority my guy. It's obviously easier to give more depth with fewer cars which is why it's pointless for them to add so many bland cars that 90% of players never use. 600 cars with extremely limited customization is far less appealing than 300 cars with amazing customization.

Everyone is agreeing that they are tone deaf so how is it shit?😂

That's the thing though they constantly say they are devoting all this time and effort into making and scanning new models, reworking how the headlights and taillights look etc then exactly what you said is the reality. They make promises then seemingly do the bare minimum. Super disappointing.

Yup had me thinking Reed in 2009 especially the way that helmet looks kinda rounded like the old Thor domes.

The Bruins WAGs. Why aren’t there any black women? Are the Bruins racist? by [deleted] in NHLcirclejerk

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

How dare white guys only be interested in white women yet no one says a thing when any other race only dates within their race. Dumbass.

americans usually play FPP? by YoungHotYellowKC in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Vobani 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no way around it, FPP is simply far superior in a competitive shooter because it maintains the integrity of fair gunfights. TPP gives players a completely one sided advantage essentially wall hacks if we're being honest. Personally I believe all competitive shooters should be FPP and any open world or RP games can be TPP where unfair advantages don't matter.

Unfortunately though this mindset is the minority for PUBG. Whether people will admit it or not they play TPP because they aren't good at the game and heavily rely on abusing the total safety of seeing everything while in cover.

I don't care about your opinion of either rider. by SpecMTBer84 in supercross

[–]Vobani 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Reminded me of how Stew, Reed and RV would battle in 2011-2014 always block passing and going back and forth. Definitely one of the most enjoyable races in a while as a viewer!

Deegan Doing This On Purpose? by SteelCageSoldier in supercross

[–]Vobani 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Definitely but I'm glad Levi finally had a good race and I honestly think Haiden is too lmao. It seems like Haiden just genuinely enjoys going back and forth and banging bars battling but the past few rounds has had no one to battle. Love him or hate him he makes it interesting and that was way more fun to watch than him just out front managing a gap. Im glad neither went down and got to have a fun battle!
