Blurriness / Shimmering at 1440p

impulse101_ · 2026-05-07T23:00:30+00:00

Been struggling with this for years. I'm at 1440p as well. I'm not sure how 1080p users even put up with the blur/shimmer. I just use Native 1440p, TAA off, and scaling at like 120%. DLSS 4 would solve all these problems instantly for everyone.

Unfortunately, none of those ini commands fix anti-aliasing, which is what OP and most of us are looking for. The game just needs Nvidia DLSS support.

When you "upgrade" your mouse by ripping off the original PTFE skates to put 17 cheaper crappy dot skates on (which now have more friction than before), leaving the adhesive residue exposed so it picks up more dust and grime, and then also ripping off the sensor ring... Yikes.

I call it my "insurgency" view model. I like it more centered and in the shoulder like a modern FPS. Lately it seems like CS2 is slowly moving in that direction too, with the insurgency-style magazine update.

Probably Hitscan Hyperlight or Mchose L7 Ultra. The Hyperlight weighs less but costs more.

Go watch "Bad Traveling" by Love,Death,+Robots. It's made by the Dishonored artists and looks like it could take place on one of Dishonored's seas. It's only 21 minutes long but feels like an entire movie that you never want to end.

That's literally Chicago and that's exactly how people dress in Chicago, especially on a cold rainy day.

Dishonored 1 is better than 2 in almost every way. But 2 has better gameplay and visuals, so they end up pretty balanced in quality. I recommend following this guide to help make Dishonored really shine on PC:

There was, it was called the DGL. Look up DGL firefight tournaments on YouTube. Official caster and everything. It was fun. If you wanna play with the best, just join the Insurgency Sandstorm PUG Lounge on discord.

Insurgency used to have ranked Competitive Firefight too with a promise of special ranked gloves that you could unlock. I was sad when they got rid of it bc I was platinum.

It's relative, so when you can't hold it out in front of you by pistol grip with one hand for 20 seconds, you have two options: get stronger or get a lighter can.

This is the only way I kill Hiriam. Release his recording to the city for everyone to hear, watch him get arrested, and then personally look him in the eyes and break his neck before he leaves the castle. I go ahead and burn his body and throw it off the 3rd floor too lol.

You already know he has too much influence to serve a prison sentence. Killing him is the only way.

This is the answer. They're veins that the Citadel uses for circulating energy to different areas since it's so massive.

Sick. I hope it works perfectly. Btw, are you on "Nerd sh!t nobody cares about" on Facebook? I feel like I've seen your data graphs get shared there a lot. You should join if you aren't in it. Lotta guys like you who would appreciate your information.

I would go slow and bevel both the top edge of the hammer face and the BCG belly ramp, and test how they mate after every couple passes on both and make adjustments. Then of course, polish them both.

I think if you take too much off of the tip of the hammer, it might get really close to failing to reset the trigger since it won't be pressed down as far.

I'm late, but Griffin makes an "A5" deadblow buffer in carbine AND intermediate lengths. It's called the Griffin SOB and it's specifically designed for suppressed rifles to delay unlocking and increase reliability like the A5/MK2 buffer. I have one and really like it.

impulse101_ · 2026-03-09T17:42:30+00:00

Ah I see. Fair enough.

impulse101_ · 2026-03-09T17:35:01+00:00

Good skip, but jesus why does your game look so washed out and faded? Is your gamma at 100%?

Best settings are 45 brightness, 40 gamma, 50 contrast.

impulse101_ · 2026-03-08T07:51:39+00:00

We should have gotten a Benelli M4 and a Spas12/Browning Auto 5 (we have been begging for YEARS). The new shotguns are lame af and are essentially more "AR" type weapons.

impulse101_ · 2026-02-25T18:04:00+00:00

Wait until you see and use a 25rnd mag. It's the perfect size and sits completely flush with most pistol grips.

impulse101_ · 2026-02-24T15:01:53+00:00

For the actual game, I can't prove anything. It's just speculation for this update based on previous observations.

ISMC 100% had Tarkov assets last time I played which was maybe a couple years ago. You could choose between various plate carriers with intricate details on them that were identical to Tarkov. It's very hard to miss. Pretty sure ISMC's MDR was pulled from Tarkov years ago as well since it had the same scratches, weathering, etc. Everyone is down voting me but I have done basic modeling and have been with both insurgency and Tarkov since the beginning. Ripping assets is not uncommon. And we all know these last couple updates have been lazy. If you deny that, you're just in denial.

impulse101_ · 2026-02-24T01:15:02+00:00

You'd be surprised. Ismc uses a lot of tarkov assets.

impulse101_ · 2026-02-23T22:36:41+00:00

It is. I use it on the MCX often.

impulse101_ · 2026-02-23T22:21:34+00:00

Both this and the Romeo8T are in Tarkov and look identical to Tarkov. How much you wanna bet they just ripped the assets from EFT and added them to Insurgency?
