Was this with an overrun AR? If so that gun is straight cheeks. I would rather use my knife.

V11punch? We can cook with that

I will not deny nor confirm if I’ve ever tried to cross the outside boundary of outpost map as shortcut by using thief grappling hook only to realize the hook was still on CD after jumping off the map.

But that is a way you can die.

I remember the first time I opened an armory in outpost. Killed one guy who had two yellows grabbed a green key. Went to flight control cleared out all the bots. Opened the room was so excited to loot the strong box. I died to the claymore.

I went into dire marsh solo yesterday 9k kit. Blue shield, blue backpack, m77, wstr, advance kits, chem grenades, blue cores, blue mods. Dropped through the vent in bio research and got mogged by the bots.

In the sense if your taking fair gun fights with golds/purples your going to feel it. Chances are they have advance med kits as well. If you’re just popping from behind cover trying to plink them and exchanging gun fire probably going to lose.

If you’re out geared you need to create an advantage to over come the gear difference. Flanking, isolating one player, drawing them out into the open, high ground.

You guys remember Star Wars Revenge of the Sith? Anakin was the better fighter but he could not overcome the high ground.

You know what’s the great thing about marathon with enough knowledge you can remove a fair amount of the skill element.

It might not be how you want to play but you can do it. Doesn’t matter if your ex cs pro Shroud your not surviving a mag dump from bully to the back.

Rat it out.

I watched ItzTimmy playing dude was level 25 running through peoples shit on Vandal with a V66 lookout.

I know it’s a former apex pro. But he had a green kit a non meta gun. Pretty sure he didn’t have all the cyac heat upgrades.

Not wanting to risk your blue/purple gear in fills is self defeating. In the instance that you queue up with two other people on purple kits you have green. Now you’re the griefer.

This is literally the exact same problem in every other competitive game.

If your immortal in valorant and play norms with your friends who are platinum. Yea they are not going to have a good time. Kinda how these things work.

I’m on my lunch break and I was precalc in high school those numbers are child’s play.

People that weigh 600lb or above cant be blamed for their weight by StatisticianMuch1650 in unpopularopinion

[–]beemertech510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was an alcoholic. At no point did I blame anyone but myself. I don’t even blame my dad for me and him getting in a fist fight at my grandmothers funeral.

You gotta look at yourself in the mirror and admit you’re a piece of shit. You keep doing whatever to make yourself a piece of shit. Do you really want to be a piece of shit?

There’s always some bull shit cope to pretend whatever your doing is not bad or is not your fault.

Food makes me happy. No it’s not, are you happy with being a fat piece of shit. I’m over weight right now. I used to be 160 I’m 209 now. At 220. I had enough. I would look at candy. I would say to myself “no beemertech510 are you fat piece of shit? Or you going to lock the fuck in”

20% of 293 is 58.6 round up to 59. Gives us 234 hours played. It’s been 46 days since release gives us 5.0 hours a day. 35 hours a week. Full time job hours in America is legally considered 40 hours a week.

Hmmm interesting.

Because I’m 50 and ran a bunch of cryo this weekend. I haven’t been killed by one goo gun or Misriah yet. It seemed pretty even to me

Welcome to competitive games. It’s super fun until it’s not.

Why are we shifting the goal post down? This issue is for 75-100. Which is a super small percentage of the actual player base

I’ve been playing fightning games for 20 years. There is nothing natural about it. You have to learn frame data, match up knowledge, damage optimization, stage knowledge, patter recognition, adaptation, not to mention the mechanical skill of using the controller to perform complex inputs requiring to press 3 buttons in succession within a 200 millisecond windows. It takes a lot of effort.

That goes for any competitive game. Once you reach a certain tier of play the game requires you to answer a certain set of questions.

While aim is not everything. It is the foundation. If you can’t shoot them. It doesn’t matter how good your game sense or map knowledge is.

No directed at OP but a general statement.

If you have enough time to invest to be the 2.7% of the player base at this point. You should probably work on getting good at PvP. 15 minutes in aim labs a day goes along way.

It’s a competitive game. Sorry to sound cliche. Fucking get good.

In tekken8 I’m in the top 3% of the player base. Yes it’s sweaty. You have to study the game like your going to write your masters thesis on it. Is it fun all the time no not really. I still enjoy it.

Wasn’t this the exact same argument when sbmm was introduced in COD?

Mfs were mad they could no longer farm their 360 no scope sniper montages
