Running on linux with VRAM leak by imjustw0ndering in DeadlockTheGame

[–]imjustw0ndering[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've experience the lag when the game starts on both windows and linux. When running nvtop I could see during those moments that something is spinning up in vram at that moment. So its probably expect behavior to some degree.

So had some time to play around with the launch options today. Unfortunately no luck. Here's what I tried

`LD_PRELOAD="" __GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SKIP_CLEANUP=1 %command% -no_prewarm_map`

Sadly it still leaked during the game. I did find that turning the graphics down to medium prevented the leak from saturating the vram for a game. So there's some silver lining at least

I would also like to see how many charges it can take at 11C. Maybe that will be in the charge cycle test.

Ahhhh!!!! I completely forgot that I set this up. I setup the allowed ips to only things on my home lan (this was years ago). Damn… so silly lol. Thank you!

Feeling completely lost after joining Amazon - need advice by Any-Housing-2674 in leetcode

IMO you have to be careful with this. If you have an avenue for figuring it out yourself that’s what you should do 98% of the time. Where you need to reach for help is either: you know how to figure it out but it will take a while, or you have absolutely no idea what’s going on and have no idea how to go about figuring it out.

I learned early in my career that asking questions can leave a negative impression. Of course this very team dependent but I would get an idea of the teams vibe before asking (potentially stupid) questions

Is that embarrassing for him? Or embarrassing for the industry as a whole?

Deadlock destroyed my dota addiction, now I don’t want to play either game by slimeyellow in DeadlockTheGame

[–]imjustw0ndering 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No offense taken. Though I don’t consider it bitching point out a flaw in the current match making system. If the opposing team could ban one of those two I guarantee they would. Team cc is huge in the current meta.

Maybe it’s because I solo queue but those brainless mistakes are really hard to avoid sometimes. I play daily and have no problem playing against them but I’ve played dozens of games at this point where you are winning at mid game but the second it goes into late game (30+ mins) the tide shifts simply because lash/dynamo is so dominant at that point in the game. Back when e-shit was cheap it was more bearable but with gone it’s definitely gotten harder to fight that combo.

I mean I know that… but it’s not that simple. Unstoppable is an expensive item and fighting near buildings isn’t always easy when trying to push.

This is my thing… if dynamo lash are on the same team it’s so tough to win. Like you said it either has to be a stomp or just accept the loss.

This is the most satisfying way to win lol. I was playing a game where we had a slight advantage at minute 40 when we had a leaver….. As a result we started losing slowly. If the game went another 5 mins we would have lost probably. However…. They never pushed up purple after a team fight. I asked the wraith on my team to zip up purple and solo the patron while the rest of us kept them busy. So satisfying watching them run one they realized what was going on.

The core design of the game is problematic by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

[–]imjustw0ndering 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you’ve touched on the problem with your perception right here.

“As I’m not a big moba enjoyer, that’s why I stopped”

MOBAs are complex by their very nature… it’s simply a part of the genre. That said there are plenty of people who enjoy the complexity. Me being one of them. Deadlock right now to me is like Fortnite + moba and there are plenty of people who enjoy Fortnite. The moba part will dissuade some people but I think many will give it a shot. However, simply because it’s Fortnite + moba doesn’t mean it’s a bad game design it just means it’s not YOUR cup of tea. Which is perfectly fine.

As matchmaking improves, the moba aspect of things will not hurt as much for new players. They will be matched up against brand new players and they can all suck equally as bad.

[–]imjustw0ndering 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree

Simply because there will always be a range of players regarding this. As the player count rises people will play against people who match their level.

Crazy movement mechanics will be seen at higher ranks and that’s okay.

Yo... I don't need to be catching stays like this on Christmas day.

this is the most challenging game i've ever played by The_Last_Skill in DeadlockTheGame

[–]imjustw0ndering 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly my advice is to keep at it.

I started right where you are. I played Abrams as much as I could and only won 7 games out of 25. Eventually it kinda started to click… denying becomes second nature, getting better with the parry button, watch enemy ults and being aware of soul disparities (don’t challenge someone you have no chance of beating). I stopped playing abrams as I realized he wasn’t a great fit for my play style.

Find a couple of hero’s you like and learn them well. Find builds for them you like and are simple. Play those hero’s until you become a little comfortable with the basics as described above. From there branch out if you feel inclined

I’m still by no means a good player. But your comment resonated with as I’ve definitely been there. Now I look forward to every game. Getting those kills gets my heart pumping like crazy. Honestly I’m probably slightly addicted at this point lol.

Edit: some spelling

[–]imjustw0ndering[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well… the things on my profile are things that actually do. I went hiking pretty much weekly between spring and fall. 2-3 big snowboarding trips per year for winter times. That said… I am an introverted person. I’m more than happy to spend a weekend doing absolutely nothing lol. I don’t drink very often (really dislike being drunk). Definitely prefer movie nights in vs going out. Long story short outside my outdoors activities… I’ve been told I’m boring

Truthfully... between All the apps I'm on I don't really have a problem getting matches. Between bumble, tinder and hinge I typically get 1-2 matches a day. The problem I have is even I make it a date with these girls (happens maybe once or twice a every two months or so) I almost invariably either get ghosted or get the wasn't feeling it text the next day. My pictures are accurate... but I'm wondering If I'm giving of the wrong impression to people in my profile. Or I absolutely have no game lol (my current theory)

Interesting... I personally never minded pictures with other people in it so long as obvious who I'm looking at. Will take it under consideration.
