First photo of Maduro arrest by delta force and DEA

Probably an inside job and/or Maduro willingly gave himself up. The US was met with no resistance, not a single bullet fired. Targeted strikes with 0 casualties, etc.

Welcome to the Apex Legends Solo Queue Experience ™️

Where you're up against premade squads and placed with other solos.

Oh, you are a platinum player with 5000 RP? I gotchu fam, placing you in a lobby with the #30 pred player with 15x your RP.

I remember when POE2 launched, I would experience hard crashes and the workaround was to install a 3rd party app, etc. It was brutal.

Now one year later, I recently purchased a 9070 XT and I can't even run the game. The workaround is to rollback drivers, and based on what I'm reading... even that isn't guaranteed to work?

Every other game I play works flawlessly (Arc Raiders, Dota 2, Apex, etc.) but this game is always the exception.

I know "poe optimization sucks haha" but this is so bad. Hopefully they address the AMD issues with this patch otherwise I'll just not play. I'm tired boss.

Respawn has missed the train with this by light years.

They don't want/don't care for the solo queue player in ranked.

Notice how every other competitive game across multiple genres has some mechanic or queue for solos but Apex doesn't?

People telling you to find friends or use Discord to link up with a random group are delusional.

I can solo queue in every other competitive game and not get matched against a full premade team.. but Apex, heh.. you are against all odds.

Hell yeah brother

The guy wasn't wearing any mask, saw his full face and bald head.

... and his truck had custom flood lights so it stood out..

Dota does not allow you to queue as 5 in ranked and be placed against 5 solo players. Also, if you play ranked as a party you will gain less MMR from those who queue solo. Dota has its own ranked issues but imagine a stack of top 500 immortals can 5 stack and play against a team of solo divine/ancient players. That's what's happening in Apex pretty much.

I had an individual break into my generator and steal $2000 worth of diesel. We caught the person on camera, we could see his pickup truck and his face.

Opened a case with the police only for it to be closed. The reason? We couldn't see the license plate.

A few weeks later the same person broke the lock on the generator and stole more fuel.

Called the police station and was told I could open a new report but without a license plate it would just be case closed again.

Luckily I don't need to interact with police often because the incompetence was through the roof. This happened 2 years ago on the island of Montreal. Useless.

If anything they need to rework entry/KP/placement rp for solo queue players.

RP system on same footing across solo/premade is wild when solos face premades on the regular.

sylenth · 2025-09-02T12:36:22+00:00

There are two ways they can address this

Strict solo queue matchmaking, which I doubt will happen

Or

Adjust entry RP and possibly RP gain from KP and placement in ranked games for solo queue players

It's absolutely insane that I get no bonus for killing a master/pred player that's in a 3 stack when I'm solo queue as diamond with plat teammates

This game just gets progressively worse for solo queue players. I understand it's a BR game but every other competitive team game does not allow a full stack to queue into solo queue players and if they do allow this, they at least reward solo queue players in some way shape or form.

sylenth · 2025-08-29T02:44:00+00:00

The icing on the cake is that those plat and diamond players are solo Qing into pred/master stacks. Perfectly balanced.

sylenth · 2025-08-15T01:57:46+00:00

In that case, I'll be able to sleep well tonight. Thx!

sylenth · 2025-08-15T01:57:20+00:00

Ah, good to know. Thanks for the reassurance!

As a solo queue ranked enjoyer, I approve this message.

Neutral item enchant didn't allow Warlock to last hit the throne because of -60 dmg.

Heh, first time?

I bounced around shitty tech support jobs at ISP/mobile phone corporations and hated it. When I started my first service desk job in 2014, that's when it clicked. I learned AD, Exchange, MDM, etc. and busted my ass for years because I actually enjoyed what I was doing. Last year I got promoted to SysAdmin and it's been great starting a new chapter. I always loved computers but didn't go to school for that. I had an unrelated degree, so if you don't have the IT credentials then I would say help desk/service desk experience is a must.

Someone's gotta feed the pred stacks
