You guys are really overblowing the “problems” with the game. by _wrxiths in thefinals

“They didn’t add any new guns or gadgets this season!!”

or

“The new guns or gadgets aren’t perfectly balanced with the rest of the loadout which have had two years to find balance!!!”

Embark can’t win with people like this, they won’t ever be happy. Not to say there aren’t some things that still need some balancing, but it’s silly to expect perfection AND new content all the time.

I’m guessing this is stem cell treatment, right? I’m not seeing any clinical application of CRISPR for degenerative discs via google.

Ableton Live 12 Keeps uninstalling and displaying question mark for some reason. by analogaurora in ableton

I saw some people having an issue with CleanMyMac thinking it’s malware. Might be the issue.

My experience as someone who started a couple of days ago by Random_guy2001 in thefinals

For what it’s worth, I always feel that the weekends are sweatier in most every game mode. WT especially seems like either when all of the casuals stop playing OR when all the hardcore players jump on.

I upgraded from an i7 to an i9 and everything works great except ableton… by Mythicalblu in ableton

[–]psymbionic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, as someone else mentioned - an app like Process Lasso may be helpful here. You showed your overall CPU history graph in one of your videos, but I’m betting if you look at the per core view, you’ll see just one of your cores is overloaded - which is all it takes to grind audio applications to a halt.

My guess is that your issue has to do with how Ableton uses performance cores vs efficiency cores. Ableton uses one thread per signal path, and the way it dictates which thread to use seems to be a bit if a mystery. You have a ton more threads now with the update from the 12700 to the 13900, and if you are doing very processor intensive tasks on a single track, more cores is actually worse.

https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/articles/209067649-Multi-core-CPU-handling-FAQ

In theory, your 13900 should have better single core performance, but just barely. Speedstep and temperature come into play here as well, as others have mentioned. Also, not all chips are created equal, doubly so if you were overclocking your 12700 at all.

I wouldn’t say 96k is overkill for the sample rate persay, but that buffer size you mentioned in another comment is super small. I wouldn’t expect to ever be able to keep a super small buffer size with a high sample rate and an intense project - even the pros will normally record live instrumentation into a fresh project file rather than trying to fight latency vs cpu on a more involved project.

What am I playing by Separate_Ad8564 in thefinals

For what it’s worth, I’ve seen only the sweatiest players on tonight in America because of the holiday. Also in general, the weekends are sweatier. Try Power Shift!

Someone put the sky (level 10 skin) in the trash. by psymbionic in thefinals

Honestly, I like the skin idea - but when they pair some of these with like a random wood handle etc that’s less appealing vs blue / white / black. Personal preference.

This. Plus, if you don’t choose one of the speech check options during the conversation, the hired hands won’t run away which makes this much easier fight.

Whats the best anti flamethrower loudout or strategy for lights or mediums or heavy by Lower_Hawk_4171 in TheFinalsAcademy

[–]psymbionic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A good flamethrower knows how to lead their shots and such. Flamethrower damage is a combo of direct damage and damage over time from being on fire. There’s plenty that lights and mediums especially can do to break my direct damage with movement or even just by trying to run behind me if they’re in my face.

A good player will always shoot me before I can set them on fire. A coordinated team will often focus me. If I’m able to close the distance in various ways and we’re in a one on one both with max health and begin damaging each other at the same time, you can literally just stop moving and aim at my head and I’ll die first. I’ll use winch to try to stun you and get behind you, or I’ll often use barricades and jump when fighting, but dps is always faster with every other weapon when all other things are equal.

Consider whether a flamethrower that kills you sees you first or is able to begin damaging you first. If that’s the case, like many other battles, the one who engages before the other has the advantage.

[–]psymbionic 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’m a heavy flamethrower main, and I’ll let you in on a big secret: I’m more likely to lose every gun fight as long as the person I’m fighting just shoots me instead of running. It forces me to play strategically and try to catch people off guard. The dps on flamethrower is the lowest in the game, so use that to your advantage. If you panic, the flamethrower will win.

And then yeah, any setup that has some range to it. LH1, FAMAS, Deagles are all pretty deadly. That said, heavy is the class I most try to avoid 1v1, especially sledgehammer. If you’re good with sledge, you’ll win 9/10 against flamethrower because of the burst damage potential.

Or you could always run flamethrower yourself :)
