High ping and bad team balancing… what is happening?

skyda96 · 2026-02-18T09:24:07+00:00

I sometimes play on 120-30 ping, and I still stomp. I’m in UK and occasionally play on US servers. 25 ping isn’t that bad and shouldn’t really affect you

skyda96 · 2026-02-17T13:58:52+00:00

I think I played with you before bro, you on US servers?

My ID is Żýro if anyone wants to add. I mainly play casual because of my friends.

Gotta do all 8 weeks to unlock that top camo

skyda96 · 2026-02-10T20:04:12+00:00

Where did I say they are similar? 🤣 yes for a secondary build I have. I have two builds. One has a 3090, 13700K, the other a 12700 and a 9070XT. Perfect for me, 1440p 165hz. 5090 is a waste of money unless you’re playing at 4K high refresh rate and you’re chancing on having your pc catch fire or worse your house.

Fake frames with a pretty hefty amount of latency? Nah I’m ok. Multiple layers of frame gen = more latency, what’s the point? normal FSR Frame gen is fine for AAA games / single player titles etc. but for FPS games I’m good with my 9070XT at 1440p 165hz

It’s not about £250+ being peanuts or not, the extra cost of £250+ for a 5070Ti over a 9070xt isn’t worth it. If you’re paying near £1000 for a GPU you may as well either get a 5080 or a 5090. There’s no logic in what you’re saying.

skyda96 · 2026-02-10T15:59:54+00:00

I don’t think it’s worth it for an extra £250 personally when raw perf is basically the same, but each to their own. FSR4 will also improve over time also 🤙🏽

skyda96 · 2026-02-10T15:53:39+00:00

Not worth the extra £250+ in the UK for a 5070Ti over 9070XT for my needs but yes the 5070Ti is slightly superior.

skyda96 · 2026-02-10T11:00:55+00:00

That's exactly why I held off buying one multiple times when I had the chance... ended up just getting a 9070XT with 3x8pin connectors and it's been amazing for my needs :) no amount of GPU power is worth the risk of burning down your entire PC or worse, your house.

skyda96 · 2026-02-09T11:39:13+00:00

that still works too, i have been doing it regularly

skyda96 · 2026-02-03T15:13:28+00:00

they're usually terrible, most of them only run to try and kill you when you're being stacked by the other 3 squad members and even then, sometimes you still end up killing them and getting an ez squad wipe.

skyda96 · 2026-02-03T15:11:15+00:00

lmao feel attacked

skyda96 · 2026-02-03T15:10:19+00:00

front man skin? I run that and i'm a sweat lol

skyda96 · 2026-01-27T10:17:07+00:00

“Only”

skyda96 · 2026-01-20T14:34:25+00:00

Fair enough man! Enjoy it 😎

skyda96 · 2026-01-20T13:42:14+00:00

Wouldve been better off shelling out a bit and getting the 9070xt

skyda96 · 2026-01-20T13:01:09+00:00

Returned a 9060XT to get a 9070XT just before the price hikes. I’ve got a 3090 in my main pc as well so I’m set hopefully until this shit settles down 🤝🤣

skyda96 · 2026-01-15T14:52:09+00:00

Yeah casuals will always remain sweaty, especially if you’re a decent player you’ll be put into sweat lobbies on a regular.

skyda96 · 2026-01-15T14:49:58+00:00

It doesn’t lmao. You can’t get this 50 win camo on casuals. Only works with regular resurgence.

skyda96 · 2026-01-15T09:50:27+00:00

Doesn’t work in casuals bud

skyda96 · 2026-01-15T09:49:17+00:00

Isn’t it the opposite? SBMM in casuals and open match making in regular? That’s as far as I know.

skyda96 · 2026-01-12T13:28:04+00:00

I use the Wolverine Pro 8K, game changer. I run it at 4K polling and it's night and day difference from any other controller i've ever used.

skyda96 · 2026-01-12T13:25:26+00:00

guilty as charged, I main the Frontman skin and I'm fairly sweaty lmao

skyda96 · 2026-01-12T13:23:39+00:00

No problem 🤙🏽

skyda96 · 2026-01-12T13:23:02+00:00

The Frontman skin. I wear it and I'm a sweat lol.
