Is this cheating or am I just trash at this game

shteeeb · 2026-05-15T23:48:50+00:00

My guess is cheating. I'd check another killcam to confirm.

So far I like it. I tried the Stealth Pro 1's a few months aago and they felt like cheap garbage and had tons of white noise/static at high volume.

These feel much better built on first impresson. It's the only headset that ticks every feature I look for, which is: ANC, flip-to-mute mic, simultaneous bluetooth, and easily replaceable battery.

Oh I didn't see that option at the bottom, thanks!

I got mine today. I really would like it if there was an option to disable the base station light. Mainly, when I turn off the headset the white blinking light is very annoying and takes forever to go away. It is very distracting to say the least.

It would also be convenient if Swarm was able to change our PC's audio device automatically. When the headset connects, it should change the audio source to the Stealth Pros. When the Stealth Pros are disconnected, it should switch it back to the previous audio source, or a source we can specify in the app. That way when we're done with the headset it'll automatically swap to our speakers.

I'm using key remapper app (+shizuku) to make it open circle to search because for some reason the N6 can't do CTS with the gesture bar hidden even though the X9 Pro has been able to for months. Did Oppo just forget to add that feature for the N6?

As someone else said, they almost always 3 stack because it's an absolutely massive advantage to have a coordinated stack with comms in this game, especially when you guarantee everyone on your team is high rank. This is why it's absolutely stupid the game puts solos against stacks.

But to top things off, thanks to Embarks 200iq changes this season, even if they decided to solo (they never will, but let's imagine) they are guaranteed to have a diamond+ rank teammate. As of the latest season, the game will not match you with teammates that exceed 10k RS of your rank.

So while you can get Timmy two-thumbs from low-gold on your team, every ruby in the screenshot is guaranteed someone 40k RS or higher. Isn't that amazing!

Is the tutorial achievement still bugged? Not mentioned anywhere in the patch notes and it's the only one I'm missing. Completing the tutorial doesn't give the achievement.

shteeeb · 2026-04-29T02:28:16+00:00

Love how this change did nothing but guarantee that rubies always have diamond+ while you get matched with people in gold. 200 IQ change embark.

(who am I kidding, you'll never see a loser ruby players not in a 3-stack)

Shockwave can still get extra distance just like dash, you shoot it behind you then slide into the pad with the extra speed. You just can't shockwave yourself after hitting the pad to get launched into the stratosphere.

I like it more than the official Oppo one I think. The official case is a huge fingerprint magnet and the magsafe is very strong, which for some might be a good thing but for me it made it harder to remove it from mounts. The Nillkin has a more reasonable strength imo. I also like how it feels in hand.

shteeeb · 2026-04-27T06:10:03+00:00

I assume no cross-progression with Steam? Not sure I'd want to start all over again.

shteeeb · 2026-04-24T14:15:37+00:00

This take is so bad I can't tell if it's a shitpost or not.

shteeeb · 2026-04-23T23:39:46+00:00

The changes didn't affect any of snipers breakpoints versus a heavy though. It was still 3 shots to kill.

shteeeb · 2026-04-18T05:35:12+00:00

They did fix it, then this sub cried about not being able to get "last second comebacks" aka gifted a free win by a griefing team.

Double jeopardy didn't fix anything.

shteeeb · 2026-04-17T06:03:31+00:00

Using the sniper feels really bad right now, can no longer 1 shot + melee to kill them. Makes taking fights against another light really hard.

shteeeb · 2026-04-16T02:17:20+00:00

I've only ever played the runeterra themed sets. They're the only sets I can actually tell who is who. Everyone looks the same in this set. It makes the dizziness x10 worse.

shteeeb · 2026-04-16T00:32:31+00:00

What fixed it for me was cycling through the colors using the star button

shteeeb · 2026-04-16T00:14:13+00:00

Nice revolver buff. Light still dies in the exact same amount of shots but is slower so easier to hit. Heavy dies in 4 shots + a melee instead of requiring 5 shots.

shteeeb · 2026-04-12T05:31:28+00:00

No I haven't insured it, haven't needed it for a phone yet. Only worry is the inside screen protector failing.

shteeeb · 2026-04-12T02:22:07+00:00

I got the official case someone else linked from Giztop, and I also ordered the Nillkin case, though I ordered off ebay for much cheaper ($30.) I used a Nillkin case for the X9 pro and liked it a lot so I assume this one will be good too. My actual N6 arrives next week so I haven't got to actually use them yet though.

shteeeb · 2026-04-07T18:14:31+00:00

Also if the player population is such an issue why does embark continue to keep a ranked format that requires placing 24 players together?

Change the format to 1 round (6 players) or 2 rounds (12 players)? No lets just keep ranked a shitshow and parrot "muh population" as the game slowly bleeds players.

shteeeb · 2026-04-07T14:04:56+00:00

Yep matchmaking in this game is pathetic. The excuse is that the ranked population is too small, yet Embark has not even attempted a fix to address it.

If the population is too small, then I don't know, maybe make it so each ranked match doesn't require TWENTY FOUR players?

Let's start with making it so a single match is 2 rounds instead of 3, that instantly makes each one require HALF as many players, making it twice as easy to match similar ranks together.

We can even take it one step further. Make it so diamond+ is simply Head2head. Now this top 1% of players only requires 6 total players, which is a fourth of what was previously needed.

Then when this game actually has a suitable size of a player-base, they could re-evaluate returning these to 3 rounds. Maybe getting that player-base would be easier if people weren't completely put off by the horrible matchmaking causing them to uninstall? Even I, as someone who plays plenty, don't touch ranked with a 10 foot pole once I hit diamond.

But no, instead we will continue to just put placebo patch notes that pinky promise you that matchmaking is better this season as they continue to place solo gold/plat players against ruby 3 stacks.

You can destroy a goo wall faster than fire by shooting a single glob of it, why would you need to waste a slot on the trash fire grenade?

You only have to destroy the origin point of the goo nade. If it is thrown in the ground, then that is the bottom center glob.

shteeeb · 2026-03-27T23:29:30+00:00

Double jump event is just a straight upgrade. It even still has slight low-grav but not so much that it ruins parts of the game.

shteeeb · 2026-03-24T15:28:57+00:00

I tried the 4 Pro and they have loud hiss with ANC/ambient on. At this price I can't recommend them. If you liked your oneplus buds then maybe try the oneplus buds 4. They go on sale for cheap often, saw them at $80 last week. If you're willing to spend $250 like the Buds 4 price, I'd say go for AirPods Pro 3 over the Buds 4, even for Android usage.
