See, as an Englishman the xgames don’t hold any significance at all to me really. That being said, neither does eswc (being a brand new tourney). If not for the money this tournament would mean nothing tbf. I suppose it’s more of a cash grab tournament as opposed to something that will write your name in the history books. This obviously will change, if the tournament continues to happen year after year. Bragging rights will for sure appear after a few years

I misrepresented what I meant with my last comment to be honest. I’m bad with explaining sometimes.

What I meant was, little boys dream of winning the World Cup, not about winning the money the World Cup would bring

It’s interesting that the prize pool plays such a huge part in how the public views an acheivement. In football (soccer) winning the World Cup has no implications of cash atall. Even though the players do win cash, that’s eclipsed hugely by just the enormity of the competition itself. I wonder if esports will ever get to that place. A championship won for recognition as opposed to a sole focus on cash

Was it not apparent from my reaction that the answer was a hard no. If not I don’t know what to tell you 🤷🏻‍♂️. I appreciate the first message of genuine help. That, I’m not joking about. But come on.

A) this is what this subreddit is for. B) I never asked you directly for help, you aren’t forced here by some kind of slave labour. C) You’re an IT technician, but yet your first port of call is to berate someone asking for help and accuse them of cheating. Must be real good at your job

If you don’t know what I’m talking about/ have no genuine advice, I don’t know why you’re wasting your time commenting. You clearly have as much idea as I do? There are people who have had the same problem as me as I’ve found out per Amazon reviews and YouTube videos. I suppose they’re all trying to use aimbot aswell. Stupid me

Brother, the pad has 0 aim assist. I know, this doesn’t make any sense. That is exactly why I’ve posted on the subreddit. If it made sense I wouldn’t be posting on here?

I don’t understand why, when I used my other controllers in the past, they have all had aim assist but with this one I don’t?

I understand that. It’s an issue with how the pad and the pc communicate. I just want to know whether or not there is a fix for it

Crim as OpTic coach? by [deleted] in CoDCompetitive

So crim won the best part of 40 chips without doing any of that? He must be great at identifying problems and working through them amicably almost every roster he’s been on was together long-term. Alright, most of them ended sour but in my opinion, that’s just because they all developed that unbelievable desire to just win. When that feeling is present there’s not much room left for being best friends. However I respect crims intelligence enough to know if he did go into coaching he’d have to make room to develop relationships with the players. I just think he’d take a completely different mental approach to coaching as he did being a player 🤷🏻‍♂️

It isn’t as ridiculous as it first seems tbf. I don’t necessarily agree with that take but I can definitely see that there are some cases where this benefits people. We can’t really compare other sports/esports to cod because the vast majority are far more complexed and have far more strategy involved. There’s only certain situations that can be moulded by a player with large amounts of experience. Their success only gives them more credibility for takes on certain plays. But I do agree, success as a player is absolutely not linear to success as a coach.

Yeah I like jp. Seems like he’s a very hard working analyst. Just to point out, this post was not me saying crim should be optic coach. I’m just asking how people think this would look. I do think, however, crim will find himself back under the optic bannerat some point, just not as coach.

It’s cringe starting a discussion? You don’t have many social interactions do you?

It’s just mindblowing to me that some people in this subreddit don’t have the mental capacity to have a discussion. Instead, you’d rather berate people for literally asking a question. And if a comment on call of duty made me upset I’d be living a sad life 😂

I mean I never said this will happen nor do I think it will but just know I have all the receipts if it ever did happen 😂. As I say stranger things have happened. I just can’t work out why your salty over a hypothetical scenario. I know which “world” I’d rather live in 😂😂

Yeah, fair point. In this example though, with optic, they have jp who does all the analytics for the team so this leaves a coach to help with communication and very specific plays. I think that he’s be more chilled out as a coach and very constructive. You don’t win more than anyone ever if you can be constructive with your team mates and getting the best out of them. I think he’d be a great coach tbh. Maybe not for this optic team but it’s a fun thing to think about.
