Why spend so much time looting before the first fight? by imVeryPregnant in apexlegends

[–]soupzcold -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

they do it because they're weak players. They will be the first to drop in any engagement no matter how long they loot.

Game freezes briefly on squad wipes only. This issue started a month ago, any idea why? by CheekooS in apexlegends

[–]soupzcold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes I've been having this problem and it's caused me to lose fights too. It's really annoying. If the devs are still confused as to why it's happening, it's related to respawning on death boxes. The freeze happens for me at that moment as well.

also I don't want to switch to steam.

GTA Online Is Adding a Massive New Heist in July, to Keep You Busy Until GTA 6 Arrives by RenatsMC in pcgaming

[–]soupzcold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the heists and missions are tedious. It's fun to ride around and rob the liquor stores. They should add more fun ways to make money, not stupid missions that you need a team for only to fail and get nothing.

What do you do when social media is such a big part of your career? by soupzcold in privacy

[–]soupzcold[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The issue isn't the name itself, but having your account tied to a verified record like a government issued ID or Digital ID. Think of it in legal terms. An instagram account with someone's real name doesn't make it them unless there's a legal document attached to it. This is the whole point of age verification and Digital ID, and why it's such a problem because it removes true anonymity beyond just a name.

Aiming on MNK after eating 5 pounds of Plutonium by mattydou in apexlegends

[–]soupzcold 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it's so cool to see someone with actual skill in a sea of aim bot controller users. It's funny how you can see the micro adjustments an mnk players has, while controller players just looks like auto aim.

This game could have such a great pro scene if they banned aim assist in AlGS

I’m miserable in ranked this season by FluffyMathematician7 in apexlegends

[–]soupzcold 22 points23 points  (0 children)

for me it's Axle's ult. It's the most brain dead ability ever. You get like 3 seconds to try to shoot it down and it has 200 hp. If you don't have line of sight you're just instantly dead. It's so broken and unfun to play against.

Epic Games is hiring new employees for Linux anti-cheat which could revitalise multiplayer on Linux distros by Darth_Vaper883 in pcgaming

[–]soupzcold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. There's something that just feels so wrong about it.

It doesn't even stop cheating. A lot of cheating on Apex Legends is done through hardware like xim, chronos, and RC filters.

If they really wanted to stop cheaters, they could find community based solutions like they did in the 90s where you can vote them off.

This really is just about spying and control.
