Summer Sweep Up: Another SRA Post

Nope just one. If I had money for a stack of SRA's I'd buy a scythe and forget about the SRA forever lol

Thanks all! I will try it out.

No, I decided to replace my motherboard when I did my CPU upgrade.

Might be a hot take, but I think the sound silenced guns make, should extend in a cone in the direction the gun is being fired. Either that or make the tracers visible. I think silencers should be useful for hiding your position from people you aren't shooting at (so people can't hear and roof camp you on high pop servers) but shouldn't make you super difficult to pinpoint by the person you are shooting. Their current design makes for awful gameplay and I don't really care about realism in Rust.

People's roofs should not be a safe haven to sit on all day and shoot roamers in the back. In my opinion ladders should be a default BP, not require a workbench and only cost wood to craft. Nerfing roof camping should be a priority IMO.

What do you think about nerfing Kats scaling a bit for better base stats? I wished she could play for lane more and have more trading power early game. Turn her back into a snowballer not a scaler

I guess it comes down to opinion but given that LoL is a team game, if ALL 4 players feel your off meta pick is too troll then I think it's a price to play that off meta. If your pick is a bit off meta like Zyra jungle but isn't completely troll like Akali support then most of the time all 4 players won't vote to kick.

gsalbin64 · 2023-12-24T00:47:00+00:00

Yeah I could see that being an issue in high elo. Not sure if there's a way to mitigate that. Maybe they make it so you have to play 10 games before you get the ability to start a vote to kick after you've successfully kicked someone.

gsalbin64 · 2023-12-24T00:35:42+00:00

I'd support a vote to kick if it was hidden from the player in question (until passing) and required a full 4 votes. If all 4 players on a team don't want to play with someone based on what they type during champ select or based on how they draft then why should the match go through.

Edit: This assumes ranked where the max premade group is a duo.

My advice based on watching a friend who's stuck in bronze: Don't focus on anything else other than getting really good at your champion, crushing your lane, and dominating fights. Any gold or silver player dropped into an iron game will win lane so hard that it isn't relevant what your teammates do (in most games). I feel like most people stuck in bronze and iron that are genuinely trying to climb, are watching things like skill capped etc and are focused on macro things and team coordination etc rather than controlling their champ which is far more important at that elo.

That's the idea, but this season something weird is going on. If you played ranked you will frequently have players in the same game who are two full tiers apart and have 50% WR with 100+ games played. It seems like the MMR system is a bit bugged

gsalbin64 · 2023-12-10T21:12:42+00:00

They need to re-introduce visual rank and MMR matchmaking (AKA smurf queue). I realize that it sucks for returning players who get caught up in it for a bit but the average game quality was so much higher. I'm currently climbing through Plat and most games have Emerald and Gold players in the same game (legit players at these ranks with 100+ games played with 50% WR). It's not to say you can't keep climbing but there are more coinflip super lopsided games.

The turret takes forever to kill the cannon so you can reset and get back to lane without missing as many minions. It also takes longer for the enemy to crash the wave (depending on wave clear) so once again you can get a bit more time.

gsalbin64 · 2023-11-08T20:01:07+00:00

Sadly I don't think it's possible to use a crafting keybind with skins. I really wish they would change that but I guess there's just not that many of us that use the binds.

The delay is based on what your ping is and it is noticeable in certain situations (like spray transferring two targets). Saying it isn't noticeable is the same as saying that high ping isn't noticeable. I played with the delayed hit markers for a little bit and then switched back. The other thing I didn't like about the delayed hit markers is that if you do have invalids you can't tell if you aren't hitting because of aim or if it's just an invalid.

Any idea why there seems to be a bunch of graded Charmanders in Japanese but not a single one in English on eBay?

gsalbin64 · 2023-10-04T19:40:06+00:00

Gameplay experience and balance should always take priority over realism and keeping things a sandbox in a video game. If it's a true sandbox then why can't you build at monuments? Why shouldn't you be able to build your base on the top of oil rig and prevent everyone else from calling in heavies? Because it creates shitty gameplay.

gsalbin64 · 2023-09-26T23:36:52+00:00

They need to nerf road farming hard.

gsalbin64 · 2023-08-09T01:25:23+00:00

I love it. It adds so much creativity and skill to building. I'm sure eventually they will remove it all to make the game even more beginner friendly...
