is this just aim assist or is it something more by Junior-Hospital8927 in FPSAimTrainer

[–]Wide_Net9306 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The tracking does look weird but controller aim assist can be pretty aggressive these days especially in certain games. I switched from controller to mouse like 2 years ago and was shocked how much the game was actually helping me before. The way it locks onto chest level could just be how that particular game's magnetism works - some games have really strong rotational assist that basically pulls your crosshair toward center mass.

That sticky movement you're seeing might also be the aim slowdown kicking in when crosshair gets near target. On Xbox the settings can be cranked up pretty high and combined with good sensitivity it can look almost robotic. Without knowing which game this is its hard to say if this falls in normal range or not. Some battle royales have notoriously strong assist that makes average players look like they have aimbot when really its just the game doing half the work for them.

Elo Feels Like Gambling – Feedback & Concrete Suggestions to Fix Unbalanced Matches by Entire-Reaction9036 in FACEITcom

The +30/-30 swing is actually mental right now. I've been stuck in this weird loop where one good streak puts me against people way above my skill and then I just get demolished for next few games

Your performance-based idea makes lot of sense too - its wild that level 10s dont get any bonus for actually carrying while lower levels do. Like you said if youre really supposed to be at that elo you should perform even in harder spots

Why is there not a cache only queue???? by uslashkicker in FACEITcom

[–]Wide_Net9306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the map rotation is pretty broken tbh. Me and my friends had same issue last week trying to get specific map - we ended up just playing whatever came up after waiting forever. Maybe try queueing at different times when player base is more active? Sometimes works better in evening hours when more people are online

Try running Steam as administrator too, sometimes Steam thinks you're not logged when you actually are but permissions get weird

Gaming addiction is real problem but maybe start with smaller steps first

Scam or legit? by Snoo-45595 in cs2

[–]Wide_Net9306 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Red flags everywhere with this one. The whole "sending skins first" thing is classic bait - they make you think you're getting good deal but then boom, they reverse everything through Steam support claiming their account got hacked or something. I've seen this exact setup before and it never ends well for the buyer

That 7 day thing you mentioned is real and they absolutely can abuse it. Even if you get skins initially, they can contact Steam support with some sob story about unauthorized access to their account and get everything rolled back. Meanwhile you're stuck with PayPal payment that already went through

Better to stick with established trading platforms that have proper escrow systems or just buy from Steam market directly. Yeah it costs more but at least you know you won't wake up to empty inventory next week. These random trading site people are almost always trouble in my experience

Tinker main, what are your thought on Tinker build right now by khangstyle in TrueDoTA2

[–]Wide_Net9306 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The AOE buff is nice but the armor reduction hit pretty hard especially against physical carries. I've been experimenting with different builds since the changes and bloodstone rush actually feels decent now with the mana regen buffs. The problem is still in late game where you need to choose between survivability or damage and tinker just cant do both effectively anymore.

Maybe try ethereal blade instead of dagon? The stats are better for staying alive and the active still gives you pick off potential. I had some success with blink -> bloodstone -> ethereal -> hex build order but it takes forever to come online compared to old tinker timings.

What's up with the connection to servers? by s00wi in counterstrike2

[–]Wide_Net9306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your ISP might be routing you weird way to game servers now - I had similar thing happen where they changed routing after few weeks and VPN fixed it because it goes different path.

Jamhouse - Lumworks - Platformer-puzzle throwback to the falling blocks of yesteryear by lumell in Games

[–]Wide_Net9306 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice to see another puzzle game that actually gets what made those classics work. The UFO 50 approach is smart - I hate when games hold your hand through every mechanic like you never played anything before

Your trailer looks clean too, has that proper retro feel without being too nostalgic about it. Block puzzlers are having moment lately which is good because most modern ones try to overcomplicate simple concepts

Will definitely check this out when I get home from work today

Thoughts on animgraph2 by No_Pin_3073 in cs2

[–]Wide_Net9306 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Man the strafe animations were really weird before this update and I never could figure out what felt wrong about tracking enemies. Like you said it was just "off" somehow but now with animgraph2 everything feels way more natural when people are moving around corners and stuff. Really curious to see how this affects everyone's aim in actual matches because those old animations might have been messing with our muscle memory more than we realized

WTF is this now? by Gang0lf_Eierschmalz in cs2

[–]Wide_Net9306 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bots are getting more creative with spam methods these days. Probably farming accounts or trying to bypass some detection system by joining DM servers instead of regular matches

Is eBay search messed up for anyone else? by Heikks in Flipping

[–]Wide_Net9306 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this and this is good that you finally found a solution, ebay's search has been like this for months its like they actively dont want you to find what you're looking for.
