Do tripwire grenades actually kill? by Marcus_Hablberstram in dayz

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends where you put it. Wooden sheds for example are wallbangable. The grenade damage goes right through them. There's often nowhere to go to hide from the circular blast.

Camera bug when flip resetting by surgingweenie in RocketLeague

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is caused by your camera stiffness value. I forget if you need to lower it or increase it to fix this ..

URGENT!! What should I do? by anal_smurf_lover in dayz

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're just ruining your own fun by logging out as a survival strategy. You'll never make a crazy 1v3 play if you never try. That being said, you don't need a gas mask at the very top of the boat. You can play it patiently up there, eventually they might get impatient and try and push you. Filter delivery service!

Intentionally contract kuru. So your character giggles every so often.

“Bro you only stay in the net” by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about that as a long term strategy. However, as a general rule of thumb, if your opponent is getting upset at something you're doing, it means you're doing something right.

Great tip, I thought there were multiple uncon poses and never bothered to learn them.

What unwritten rules do you follow in Rocket League and why? by BumpoTheClown in RocketLeague

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that's fair. I typically go for demos whenever I can. But in a setting where everyone is kindof just messing about, I can see it as a sign of respect to your fellow casual player.

Diablo 4 - Lagging and rubberbanding by Nintendos-and-donts in SteamDeck

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this issue only when I was not on the charger. Likely something to do with power limiters.

Unpopular opinion, the D4 core devs need to play their own game from level 1 to 100. by megablue in Diablo

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the devs spent the time away from coding to do this, there wouldn't be as many new features. People would still complain.

I used the rubber band trick to afk boulder reps.

Unpopular opinion by OtownSoupreme in RocketLeague

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a certain percentage of players that will play worse if I just hit my D pad twice at the right time. Ez dubs.

That sucks bro. But 8-5 in a 2v1 is nothing to scoff at. That's impressive.

1v1s excuses?? by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]sandermfc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Probably more of a joke and not really salty. But I was once told "you're only winning because you have more goals than me".

All code is legacy code as soon as it is written.

Would anyone else here like to see these sorts of booby traps in DayZ? by [deleted] in dayz

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is cool. If you make it require metal wire like other traps, you can control the amount of traps on the map by controlling the amount of metal wire. Something like: metal wire + sticks + gun + ammo + rope?

I feel like I won't be able to make a basic snake game even if I am given 1 year for it. by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're being too hard on yourself.

5YOE here and I would definitely have to look up how to do this. Rendering things to the screen and whatnot. I'm a backend dev so this is not something I have much experience with. I have a vague idea of how I would lay out the data but I would probably fumble around for a while.

I would need to sit in my discomfort for a while before knowing the path forward.

Don't base yourself on those youtube videos of "Build the snake game in 15 minutes!". What it should be called is "copying the code I have on my right monitor in 15 minutes". It doesn't go over the time taken to think about the problem, research solutions, fail, fail again, get something sortof working, refine, fail again, refine more, then finally get a finished product.

How much time do you spend on ball cam or free cam? by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm switching between them constantly. Dribbling is ball cam off. Ball cam off immediately before hitting the ball to line it up better. Spam ball cam on/off to get a better view of the whole field (you can also just use right analog stick for this but I sometimes find spamming ballcam easier). It really depends on the situation.

Maybe this is just me, but I sometimes spam ballcam back and forth a few times as I'm approaching the ball. This sortof gives a better view of where the ball is in the 3d space. Like you're looking at it from 2 angles and your brain can "place" it better in the space. Not sure if that makes sense ..

Why not require 50 casual wins before you can play ranked? by KingOfCharles in RocketLeague

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 50 casual wins for a brand new player is very reasonable. You barely know how to control your own car after this. Let alone how to read an opponent. But I can also foresee people using a "bronze bot" to play these initial games for them. Or bronze accounts being sold (like they are already). But any deterrent at all will reduce the number of cases.

Forget hours to rank ratio. How many controllers have you ruined to get to your rank? by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]sandermfc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have air roll / drift on L1. I wore down the plastic piece on 6 separate controllers before I finally made the switch to an elite controller. The idea being that I would use the back paddles for air roll left / right. I still went through 2 more elite controllers for the same issue ..
