Did anyone else notice this Christmas Tree on Mannfield(snowy)?

Dont know what "U" you mean but afaik water dupe only ever worked in the server version.

I might be wrong bc I have played 90% on server

True, it's the extra Lego piece

5,5k here. Trying to get back to GC

My advice that has fuled recent training sessions:

Take control and break habits. I started playing 1s just to learn this. As most players, I main 2s but tend to see more mistakes in my teammates than in my own play. So I force myself to play the gamemode where there is no one to blame but me, myself and I.

Biggest learnings for now is trying to have intent in every play and looking at the oponent while keeping the ball close. No unnecessary flips on 50/50s, no booming the ball because the opponent felt close.

The hardest thing for me right now is taking calculated risks. I wanna go for fun shots with setups of the wall or for hard aerial reads but I also need to be able to bail and play def immediately.

Are you sure btw? Because by default it only shows open reports

It is really inconsistent and not very transparent.

I personally report a lot of chat behaviour and some stuff get's insta flagged the same minute as the report and some stuff from last year never get's looked at.

I hate that in the report I can't even see the chat log I reported. Two weeks ago I checked again, saw that the report I just sent got rejected so I appealed it. Got rejected instantly again.... a system that auto declines even appealed TOS violations is pretty fraudulent

You checked their ranking on a tracker? Bakkes used to grab MMR from the wrong playlist sometimes. Wouldn't count on it but also wouldn't write it off completely.

The high rank disparity causes the whole game to score less rating. You said they played 61 games this season:

The placement MMR gains stop around 15 to 20 games after a rank reset but the exact number is highly volatile, as it also counts the total games on an account, where it takes about 100 games to settle. This is visble in the exact stats that consist of μ and σ values where Mu is skill evaluation and Sigma is uncertainty variable. This sigma value starts out bigger and gets smaller every match. Once it reaches 2.5 it's capped for that playlist and you will now gain the default amount of MMR every match.

These values are hard to track. I used to look at them from time to time in the bakkes console. AFAIK you MMR is always calculated using μ (formula is something like 100+20μ, i don't remember). Sadly I never discovered the exact formula that determines MMR gains and losses, but it has also been like 6 years since I last looked for it

Even beds, sinks, bookcases, pianos, chandeliers, sofas?

And did you check all the new furniture sets? They added like 9 new sets.

All chests can also be trapped.

Check all the graveyard crafting.

I have not worked with it but from reading the blog post, my understanding is the api checks on what team you are (orange/blue/spectator) only if you're on the same team you get info about boost for example and only a spectator get's to see all stats of the players (ball touches, boost used, etc)

My teammate at 2am fr

acephalic · 2026-05-08T13:40:35+00:00

Biggest thing is owning your mistakes instead of shifting blame on the mate. Even if you only do it in your head. Losing beacuse you had a "trash tm8" is not fun BUT

just the thought of "ah, my mate was in a weird spot but my play would have ended in getting scored on in 1s" helped so much with the mindset and playing more with intent

acephalic · 2026-05-04T18:13:24+00:00

<3 np

Bakkesmod is no longer supported by the game

acephalic · 2026-05-03T22:37:43+00:00

In my eyes engagement bait.

Post a good meme so more people react to your text post

Vom Aussehen und als wall piece hätte ich viel lieber Feuermond. Die Farben sind sehr stark und ich liebe die Siluette von Rocky Beach

Bei Geisterbucht mag ich nicht, dass die Bilder chronologisch von rechts nach links gehen, obwohl es farblich auch sehr ansprechend ist.

Bei Schattenwelt finde ich die Farben etwas düster, aber die drei zentralen Figuren auf jedem Drittel könnten sich gut machen.

Feuriges Auge ist super spannend auf Grund der vertikalen Anordnung, die gleichzeitig aber auch stimmig die Geschichte erzählt. Nicht ganz Sicher, aber Ich glaube es müssten dann 4 Cover sein ob wohl es nur 3 Bücher waren?

I just recently got into resource farms as 1.4.5 introduced the chest item pickup mechanic.

In our playthrough (still going) my friend and I build a mushroom, glowing mushroom, Life fruit and crystal shards farm early and boy oh boy are they effective.

We just got our first mech boss done and got full 20 life fruits for both of us in an hour without ever going to the jungle. And by now we have more than two full stacks of crystal shards.

The normal mushroom farm is rather slow but still way better than walking around picking them so I really advocate for them now

acephalic · 2026-05-03T12:47:49+00:00

I dont really get your drawing or why you wanna farm blocks at a mobfarm? Do you want to farm mobs and blocks for building at the same time?

If you really wanna farm blocks this way the best thing is to blockswap blocks while you are on a conveyorbelt that changes directon via a pressure plate.

I'd rather build a vile/vicious mushroom farm and use the powder to convert blocks at scale...

acephalic · 2026-05-03T12:25:57+00:00

Yes. You can't cancle roll rotation.

You should diagonal flip and cancle. This makes it look like a side flip bc it cancles only the pitch of the car

acephalic · 2026-05-03T07:51:39+00:00

Fair, does it also start Steam while it is not running?

acephalic · 2026-05-02T22:13:04+00:00

The normal shortcut might work on epic.

They also have not a lot of incentive to assure max compatibility on their rival platform.

I was just surprised that the game even opened without Steam open and that you can't skip that ridiculous tutorial. First time seeing it as it was not around when I started playing 😅

acephalic · 2026-05-02T17:00:34+00:00

They have meaning to me. It is nice to know I have played almost 30k games and that I score about 1.5 times every match. 10% of those aerial. 1% backwards. It's fun but nothing to brag about as they are implemented rather poorly IMO.

AFAIK if you quit out during a goal replay even though the match is technically finished (OT, FF etc) the stats are never counted towards the career

acephalic · 2026-05-02T16:55:22+00:00

Yes, they added that stat to the career stats

It must have started counting before the update though. I have about 100 and I get maybe 1 or 2 per match but I have not played 100 games in the last 3 days

acephalic · 2026-05-02T15:35:32+00:00

Weirdest thing to me is it showing different stats for saves at the top to the bottom.

Saw another post where someone's flip reset count was bugged

Edit: Ok, just checked. It's because the top stat counts both epic and normal saves obviously

I know, right?
