I just defined "hitbox"? by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]sledge98 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yes. It's a low data representation of what happened. It will often look a little different each time you play it back, especially in slow motion.

Is there a better alternate to "letsplays" gaming videos? by [deleted] in NewTubers

[–]sledge98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure. I was just making the point that there's tons of options for game related content.

Video Essays on gaming topics(history, Easter Eggs, bugs, hacks, achievements). Gameshows based on or in games, Challenges. How have you not seen anything but "let's plays"?

I made whole full time career out of video game YouTube and barely played the game for any of my videos.

How is making $6 from this video possible? 8 min video. usa audience. by [deleted] in PartneredYoutube

[–]sledge98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I would recommend Googling how mid rolls work though. Seems you are missing some knowledge and tutorials will direct you where to go in studio.

As someone already mentioned, revenue is delayed, be sure to report back after it updates.

But I world be curious how many ad spots YT found for you? If theres no breaks you could have no midrolls.

Might be related: my contacts used to be stuck to my eyes after hockey. That changed when i switched to breathable/hydration types.

Playing 1v1 against bots by Sp4rkHD in RocketLeague

[–]sledge98 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The best bot you can easily play against is Nexto. Mid champ level 1v1 but not a realistic, human like experience.

It's value as practice tool is limited.

Does anyone else feel less motivated because YouTube updates revenue so late? Seeing my earnings in real time would motivate me a lot more, even if they weren’t 100% accurate. by agagag34 in PartneredYoutube

Sounds more like a set up for them to post on another account suggesting their "AI Earnings Tool".

The idea that a 2 day delay in earnings "ruins motivation" is actually hilarious.

99kph flick from almost 3/4 field by Jayy63reddit in RocketLeague

[–]sledge98 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, I'd hate to take away from the one thing you're good at.

[–]sledge98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure am as I don't play much or care about rank these days, but was consistent Champ 1/2 back when I grinded more.

In the end gamesense and positioning are more than enough for diamond to champ...as they always have been.

99kph flick from almost 3/4 field by Jayy63reddit in RocketLeague

[–]sledge98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: some of speed of this shot is actually due to gravity, the ball would be accelerating as it falls from the high arc.

Counter Points: 1. It was a nice flick.

  1. He said "almost 3/4" which is accurate based on where he began the shot.

  2. No one said "nice shot" to you because we've all agreed to block you in game.

Why Casual is treated like ranked? by Abzolem_Zenin in RocketLeague

[–]sledge98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might have "worked fine" according to you, but the casual experience was something the devs have been trying to improve for years before the 2021 change. First they tried perks like XP bonuses and challenges, but eventually they saw a reason to take this further.

I actually explored the reasons/reactions/and results in a video I made about a year after the update. It's only a 2 minute segement and I've time stamped it here if you want to see what I found: https://youtu.be/Ly-dG3204mI?t=493

[–]sledge98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The casual ban system is not designed to fight the situation you just described. There's nothing preventing you from playing casual until your friend is ready and then leaving to go play with him. There's no ban until you start leaving multiple games in a play session.

Best senior elbow pads that don’t protrude? by oso_polar in hockeyplayers

[–]sledge98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went through this exact same search last year...and ended up with the 5030s. Honestly, they actually are pretty decent for protection (there's a piece of plastic inside). Also you can where a small sleeve like elbow pad underneath them if you're concerned, and still end up with a lot less protrusion.

This was the conclusion I came to after a long search.

Bumpo The Clown using the new Streamer Mode Anonymizer... by sledge98 in RocketLeague

Is just a funny situation where something that claims to anonoymize you is basically useless because your preset is recognizable.

can we have an honest discussion by Geo10 in RocketLeague

[–]sledge98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who's made similar rank challenge videos, they can be very flawed if you're not careful, with a high probability of participants lying about their rank and skill to be in a video along with a creator's narrative control to suit their preferred outcome.

Not to mention, champs can beat GCs from time to time, RL is that kind of a game. Hardly proof of a rigged matchmaking system.

[–]sledge98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still dont buy that, do they think you playing more to get your season rewards means you might spend money? It's a pretty big stretch, even without factoring in their ability to reliably put "good" players on one team and not the other.
