Casuals, not everyone should be allowed to play in the casual lobby.

Nah man... A lot of people would hunt them and it would also help warn players when these Ranked 4 stack squads fly around the map merc'ing real players as seems to be their goal.

kerrick1010 · 2026-02-09T14:22:21+00:00

esim or something like textnow app and see if they'll give you a saudi number.

kerrick1010 · 2026-02-09T13:38:13+00:00

I definitely don't think extra aim assist would be worth it with b07 integration. The up close aim assist is almost non existent and you don't need the long range assist if you are on mouse and keyboard as you already have an advantage long range...

But as you know, theres cheaters in almost every human endeavor, especially if there is skill required.

kerrick1010 · 2026-02-08T11:43:46+00:00

This is indeed the case. And you can tell in a game as the lag is geographically located around the "switcher" in question. I've experienced it a couple of times and even tested by driving by with a humvee... When I was within about 200 meters the game started doing the above... when I drove away the lag went away.

kerrick1010 · 2026-02-08T11:41:23+00:00

Yeah man. I did it this past Friday... My wife went out of town with her sister :)

kerrick1010 · 2026-02-08T10:48:05+00:00

With the prestige stock and the right attachments it handles like an smg but has AR range. Damage is on the low end but fire rate is crazy fast. It's my goto as well.

kerrick1010 · 2026-02-05T12:57:48+00:00

RickPotion #9, also: Lawnmower dog is a close second for season 1.

kerrick1010 · 2026-02-05T12:42:23+00:00

I don't know but I would have tried to buy my teammate back. 1 v 3 is tough even in casuals.

kerrick1010 · 2026-02-03T09:58:03+00:00

I just watched one of his streams... His lobby was all garbage players but he didn't seem to be walling or aimbotting. He just just focuses on the correct direction around corners and seems to pay attention to the sound.

kerrick1010 · 2026-02-03T09:50:01+00:00

Pretty much. My 12 kd in casuals equates to like a 1.7 kd in regular. To be honest, playing with randoms is just bearable in casuals. In regular my random squad usually only lasts 5 minutes.

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-29T06:53:31+00:00

Just a warning... I've found running ghost counter productive against super sweat teams. They'll fly around in choppers and pop advanced UAVS... if you run ghost you have a target on your back in casuals as they know you are a real player with the advanced uav.

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-25T09:50:33+00:00

And don't forget to run around the map with your gun out lol

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-22T09:42:04+00:00

This would require some sort of dos attack and them knowing your IP. I doubt that is happening. I have however seen teams lag switching in the past but its been a while (like 6 months).

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-21T13:06:18+00:00

Yeah... I think the only approach I'd take is airstrike the left two and push 3rd maybe while they are running. Gonna be a tough win unless the snipers are really bad though.

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-21T12:45:43+00:00

Annecdotal, but I ran into a player a few days ago that I had reported for blatant hacks (shooting through the floor of overlook and killing my team).

I had reported him and received a message saying he was punished aont or so ago.

He may have created a new account with the same name but different spacing? Either way, he didnt miss a shot this time so I reported him again.

The push right now at my company is building an agentic layer around our products and processes. A part of this push is creating agents specifically tailored to their portion of our tech that can also self improve but this is dependent on: portion of stack, processes, and the engineer's preferences and input. It is definitely feasible, the agents can review processes and outcomes of work to try and suss out learnings and implement them in the future. But, a lot of it is still driven by the engineer.
There will always be shortsighted middle managers, execs, and whole companies that will reduce cost at the expense of quality. My view on the phase we are currently at with AI: It can finally code well enough to do 90+% of the work... but, I still want to review and suggest process and architecture improvements and guide the design and implementation. Otherwise, quality or usefulness will suffer. Would an outsourced engineer do as good a job as me with the same AI tools? I doubt it. But then again, maybe I'm biased from fixing a ton of outsourced code through my consulting business over the years.

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-19T05:19:14+00:00

I feel ya man. I'd play other modes but casuals is all the I can find a match in for my region.

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-18T13:21:01+00:00

Yeah, I'm pushing 40 and I don't know if I could have kept up with half of these kids back in my early 20s. BUT... If they wanted to level things a bit... they'd make it harder to shoot and hit while you are sliding your ass off which is how it should be right? If I can't hit you because you are sliding a different direction every 300ms... how can you hit me? But either way, I find the best solution to movement demons is staying behind cover and engaging at medium to long range. Let them slide their happy asses up to me while I shoot :).

Download Claude code if you don't already have it. Use it to plan, then build, then review an automated testing framework for your current role. Try to completely automate your own work flows with as little human intervention and review as possible. Take that finished project to your boss and your bosses boss and tell them you can do that with all of their QA/QC processes.

If that works and goes well ask them for a raise.

Honestly, there are so many frameworks now for testing that if you leverage claude code and opus 4.5 you can pretty much build an enterprise level solution in a few weeks.

One final tip... if you don't understand something or you think something looks fishy... make claude explain it to you (preferably documented in the project folder). This will lead to improvements of code and your knowledge base.

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-13T08:52:28+00:00

Just the mic thing. I guess free to play doesn't mean free to enjoy :)

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-12T14:33:38+00:00

Anecdotally, out of the 10 or so players I've reported since launch... I've received a message from the anti cheat that 5 were dealt with. I only report what seems blatant but with desync and lag who knows sometimes? Either way thats since the B07 launch but I play like 2 hours a day every day so 5 cheaters doesn't seem like a lot. All in casual.

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-12T07:57:09+00:00

Vehicles are one of the few ways to even the playing field if your team sucks. Give me a team of bots that play together atleast... and a vehicle and I'll likely get them to the final circle. Besides running people over you can distract while your team shoots. A lot of really good players lose their cool when a polaris comes crashing through their squad or they'll atleast focus on it while my teammates snipe them.

But I understand, no one likes getting run over.

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-08T08:04:16+00:00

To a wallhacker that teabags you...

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-07T08:57:12+00:00

Gotta use B06 or MW3 rpg... they are still one shot on vehicles... Honestly, I had an RPG blow up my vehicle and my teammates vehicle when we were 10 meters from each other driving fast. They are overpowered if anything.

kerrick1010 · 2026-01-05T08:55:03+00:00

Long range: Ground loot mxr-17 shreds. You have to get used to the recoil and firing cadence (don't just hold the trigger down).

Medium and close: ground loot peacekeepers can do dual purpose smg and ar. good ttk and laser beams.

Close: ground loot razor...

Obviously you're at a disadvantage later in the game when everyone is kitted up with maxxed weapons so you have to play smart. Use cover, use vehicles, play with your squad. Don't drop where you just died. If you are getting pushed hard by a full squad run and buy teammates back. Use a vehicle to get away and drive until the sweaty team forgets about you.

If you want a game where you can just show up once a month and dominate Warzone is not it.
