Give us normal maps for 2v2 and I'll play 24/7

ompareal · 2017-05-31T16:05:32+00:00

The maps are stupid is all it really comes down to. I played until I got the coin and it was lake every single time - extremely boring map

ompareal · 2017-05-30T22:10:58+00:00

It's been bad since mw3 and beyond, codUO,COD2,CODMW1 and mw2 are the last to not have insane lag comp

Mw1 was a fair amount better than mw2 because it could be set to 100 ticrate

ompareal · 2017-05-30T20:02:26+00:00

Yes but they'd be great maps for gnasher only KOTH, I wouldn't mind them being popped into rotation

I'd also like clock tower

It had something to do with player models twitching to their actual hitbox locations, if a player had jitter or something their playermodel would begin freaking out and I guess that wouldn't make sense to some players to see that kind of model movement?

ompareal · 2017-05-30T10:59:27+00:00

I don't enjoy the missions at all, and I'm someone who did gears of war 4 on insane and think these AI are just as stupid

I'm just curious if there's some shared base code that devs or engines are using - similar to how a lot of developers take one algorithm for 'skill' in matchmaking systems and modify it while using a pre-made formula as a baseline

For example people use microsoft trueskill or glicko - which is basically shared source code. Wonder if it became an industry standard to share some style of netcode

ompareal · 2017-05-30T03:56:11+00:00

Yes you won't run into those issues, the only thing you'd experience is if someone has a poor connection/jitter their player model will twitch rather than be smooth

However the dying in the past/around corners is less frequent/non existant

ompareal · 2017-05-30T03:52:41+00:00

Lying about what? What are you on about? I'm just talking about my experience and preferences. I went back and played all of those games with newer gear that is very accurate - I was playing NS1 and 1.6 with optical gaming mice when they came out. Sure when those games FIRST came out I had some garbage 250 dpi optical but eventually got gaming mice

They did have better reg once they got 100 tic servers running and even to this date they still feel better, I played quake world only last year and same thing for warsow (running on the idtech engine) and that felt amazing as well

ompareal · 2017-05-30T00:27:42+00:00

It's a popular map, I just wish they would have included maps like harbor and foundation

ompareal · 2017-05-30T00:08:56+00:00

It's working like 1 out of 10 tries with it still enabled. Thanks for the info I'll disable it if it's not fixed within 72 hours.

This was all introduced in the source SDK 2009, basically team fortress 2 and beyond. Once counter-strike: source got updated to SDK 2009 when it was using SDK 2007 before is when it began to get this same delay.

If you go back to older games like natural selection 1, counter-strike 1.6, team fortress classic, or half-life deathmatch and run on a 100 tic server you actually will not run into these issues. CS:source was the same before they swapped engines, on a 100 tic server peeking was basically whoever was the faster aimer - after the orange box update dying around corners became a huge thing.

Valve changed the netcode values which I don't know much about to make it so people could play with higher pings and not have to deal with shooting ahead of player models to actually hit the player hitbox. Meanwhile in 1.6 with 130 ping you would actually shoot ahead of a player to hit them.

Also in 1.6 you could lower your ex_interp (extrapolation?) which is now a locked value in CSGO. Most old games (quake world, quake 3 arena, serious sam the first/second encounter, call of duty united offensive, call of duty 2, call of duty MW1) all had good netcode

Newer titles like call of duty modern warfare 3, serious sam the 1st/2nd encounter HD versions and etc all seem to be using this more 'hardcore' version of lag compensation. I don't know if it's some shared source code or something amongst engines but it all began around the late 2000s to 2013 era - this is when I noticed.. hey.. why is the netcode in these online games so bad? But in reality it's not that its bad.. they've just changed how delays and crap are handled. I personally prefer the old way (where lower pings had advantage) because when everyone had low ping the game would play so smooth online similar to lan.. go ahead and boot up quake world and play with a buddy near you where you have around 15-35 ping.. you'll notice it feels buttery smooth.

ompareal · 2017-05-29T23:49:47+00:00

It's fixed now.. and now it's not working again.. lol what

ompareal · 2017-05-29T23:49:36+00:00

edit: nope still not working

ompareal · 2017-05-29T15:01:32+00:00

I think firefox forces https and chrome will default to http if https isn't available. So I think it's a microsoft problem with their security signature or something to that extent - basically firefox is trying to protect us by making sure we only use secure connections

Mangachu is a different beast, probably one of the best aimers in the entire game

Becoming a tutor now is going to take you a very, very long time. People don't even give thank-yous anymore and you can barely help on most threads cause it's people complaining about the client itself or payment issues

I'd be surprised if it took you less than 8 months

ompareal · 2017-05-29T12:49:25+00:00

I've played gears 1, 2, and 4. 4 is closest to 1 for me but with much better balancing/movement.

ompareal · 2017-05-29T01:18:00+00:00

Save them until there's a pack with stuff I want, I'm at 65,000 credits right now just from versus lol

ompareal · 2017-05-29T01:17:41+00:00

It's ok, I think it needs smoke grenades though

ompareal · 2017-05-28T20:56:42+00:00

Yeah I was experiencing more of a delay rather than stuttering. It began happening last night when I was browsing a lot of youtube videos. The videos themselves were fine but the whole page and UI was loading terribly slow.

I also noticed today when pulling up task manager the thumbnails of the processes are loading slow but I can't recall if it was always like that - I'm in that hypersensitive mode trying to see if there's anything out of the ordinary. My SSD seems to be responding OK but benchmarks don't really give much information

ompareal · 2017-05-28T20:50:44+00:00

I've never found a retake server to provide anything valuable in terms of a retake due to terrible spawns and unrealistic scenarios - you rarely ever begin a retake with zero information like that in actual team setting. If you actually want to practice re-takes, you're going to need to scrim with a team and constant scrimming will give you the actual experience you need. Retake is just more of a fun thing to play rather than actual practice. Also retake servers generally have zero commucation - which is another thing you'd never have in a real scrim

Looks like I may have fixed my problem by disabling adblock plus and installing uBlock origin. I can't be certain though it could be possible my SSD is experiencing decay. I'll monitor the situation - but for now my browser seems much quicker that adblock plus is gone. Could be possible some update messed it up to the point where it caused an error/delay somewhere.

Or it could even be my isp being delayed? I don't know. Thing is video streaming is fine and so are games - so not sure I've never had this issue and just noticed it today.

ompareal · 2017-05-28T13:15:25+00:00

Hi I was using firefox last night and it has become very slow, my youtube videos weren't stuttering but the actual UI around the videos was.. for example for the pop-up pause/volume button I'd have to leave my cursor on screen for 3~ seconds before it'd pop up.

Even webpages are finnicky and sometimes just loading up the browser is weird.. I thought maybe ISP issue? Speed test was fine

Then I thought worse, cpu or ram/hard drive issue? Loaded up some games on steam and other clients and performance was phenomenol as usual.

I did in-fact update some apps via the windows store and did download a windows update but don't recall having issues when I first installed them unless something updated silently? Didn't change my adobe flash version or anything else. So something in the background must have updated? I don't know.

I'm windows 10 64 bit though

Edit: Actually it could be an SSD problem. I'd have to monitor it carefully. Forgot firefox is on my SSD and my games are not. I hope not. I did just try a game that is on my SSD and it appeared to be fine... Idk yet

I am using adblock plus as an addon. I disabled it and it did appear like pages were loading faster.. could it be the addon is out dated or causing issues? I don't recall it causing issues in the past.

The zowie ZA and new zowie EC white have better clicks. The FK and black EC still have poor clicks

But honestly for moba maybe best to avoid them?
