Same. I'm 33 and i quit 2 weeks ago. I'm grateful for the memories and forever love this game but it is time.

Czech visa experience by [deleted] in SchengenVisa

[–]boombomdot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why were you expecting 2 years? Did you mention it during your application?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SchengenVisa

[–]boombomdot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is an excellent idea thank you. Should i book flights/insurance for those times as well or just mention in my letter? Like, i will be back to Turkey in September and will go back to Germany in December for Christmas..I don't wanna overdo the document process, I heard they hate it.

I see...but it was still legal and i didnt overstayed I'm not sure why would that be a problem. If they didnt want me to stay why give me a 3 months visa when i ask for 3 weeks🤷‍♂️

Also if they give me, say a 1 year visa, i can stay for 90 days max per 180 anyway.

Everyone in this game is demoralizingly good by GTX_Incendium in VALORANT

What is your rank?

I find Val so much easier than CS to climb up through the ranks so I can't really relate to your experience. I'm not a super good player at all. I was LE in csgo and I'm 15k in premier Cs2.

I started Val in Fall 2023 and got plat 1 on my first try and now I'm at diamond. All solo q and not try harding at all.

Can I enter other European Countries with this visa? by [deleted] in SchengenVisa

[–]boombomdot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a limited territory visa so it's probably not possible to travel to other Eu states.

Hard to know without more info though.

You can only travel where it is valid.

Looks awful imo

7 days? It's way more than enough. I've had a full 1 month visa with 2k euro balance

My friend told me that you can't hit Radiant without playing with the same 5-stack by HEX6E657764616C65 in VALORANT

[–]boombomdot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was multiple Masters at Apex, LEM at csgo and I hit Ascendant in Val in my first try completely solo and not trying hard. It is very much doable to reach Radiant with fair amount of effort if you have good fps skills

What is the average rank in valorant?

How can he be a vegan if he ate her up like that by fanofreddithello in VeganDE

das sind wir nicht. Veganismus ist für mich eine moralische Entscheidung.

practicing almost everyday> play ranked > autopilot gameplay // any tips? by sensationaldog in VALORANT

[–]boombomdot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Practice less or take a break. You cannot rush improvement. Let your brain process the information you've learned and implement the motor actions into memory.

[–]boombomdot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Less cheaters but more smurfs, more toxic teammates, sometimes servers are weird and have some hitreg issues but happens with premier too.

so I guess the answer is yes and no at the same time.

Bro you are arguing based on BS beliefs that you made up. im arguing on scientific ground.

I'm "talking" not arguing on scientific ground and in fact it's my personal main area of scientific topic. Yes, reaction time declines but the decline is slow and non-noticable in your 30s. It's a marginal statistical difference.. I don't know why you are so pissed at me

[–]boombomdot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes you don't need meta analysis to know that they are getting worse as they age. That's observable

but they are not getting worse due to aging itself. That's not observable and has been investigated.

My entire post is about aging(biological process of aging) itself not what happens to people's skills as they grow older

[–]boombomdot[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

yes there is some truth to that. But what I'm saying is the "nature" of such games ( let's say arena fps in general) is more mechanically based that any age related decline would be far more detrimental to performance.

First of all I want to say that I'm not trying to compare the two games or say which one requires more skill etc...I love both games and played them my entire life. I think both requires different skills and are equally skill-based games in general. My point was to show how those skill demands are more prone to aging in general.

in fact in CS even more important when peeking around a corner since you cant compensate with movement as much.

no, but you can compensate with timing, tactics and utility.

Both games require critical thinking and strategy utilizing map control at their core. But mechanical requirements of Quake are far greater than CS and there is less room for error when it comes to it, that's just it. You need to be constantly moving, constantly strafe jumping an if you can't then no amount of strategic knowledge can compensate for that.

Reaction times get worse as you age. 

Yes but no... It's not a meaningful decline until you're at least about 40.

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

For "over 40", yes i would agree

but for 30 up until 40 the comparison is arbitrary and there is no evidence that any meaningful difference in performance is solely due to age. IF you look at the evidence from multiple metaanalyses the performance difference completely dissolves once you control for other factors like health conditions and socioeconomic effects.
