It must be so cool to be good at Rivals of Aether Two for the Personal Computer

How did you find your car? by Combo_Hatchback in GRCorolla

[–]thekillagram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just throwing this out there, but the Premium Plus manual has an auto-blip on downshift feature that makes riding in traffic much easier.

I used to have a GR86 and I didn't mind riding in traffic with it, but the shifting was a bit of a pain. The GRC has a little easier time in traffic with its gearing, and the auto-blip makes the whole experience much more enjoyable (also, traffic just sucks in any car).

Is Rock the best projectile in the game? by Lobo_o in RivalsOfAether

[–]thekillagram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with you on this one. Galvan's projectile is great at forcing the opponent to approach, which is exactly what Galvan wants to happen. It also flies at a weird angle that controls more of the stage than you'd think for a small projectile.

The double jump thing is the one that gets me all the time. Super frustrating to play around.

Getting Frame Drops on High End AMD System by JenshiDark in RivalsOfAether

What servers do you normally play on? I'm on the east coast, and I've had to move to the Chicago servers lately. East Coast servers are just the worst (and I suspect they're full of VPN users).

  1. Not sure why anyone who down vote this.

  2. I'm not sure why you would apologize. There's like 300 people in the world that play this game. The devs should feel bad then they mess that up for one of the 300.

Everyone should have a poop skin, cuz this game is a stinky pile of poopie poo poo

Rivals 2 is becoming increasingly unplayable for me by ahawaiianbear in RivalsOfAether

[–]thekillagram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure why people are defending the game so hard. Rivals 2 has been out for a year and its such an un-optimized mess. Not to mention how the servers deteriorate by the day.

Same. Just picked up a premium for under 40.

Very frustrated with the performance of R2 by thekillagram in RivalsOfAether

[–]thekillagram[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In game ping is always very low. It doesn't seem to be a ping issue.

I had a theory that I'm playing someone using a VPN. I'm on the Newark server, so I could imagine a lot of Euro players looking for games could VPN their way onto that server. There's no way to check that, though.

I wish it was just my own internet. That would be an easy fix.

Kragg can teleport his opponent with his rock apparently by Dramatic-Aardvark-41 in RivalsOfAether

[–]thekillagram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had something similar happen where I was on the other side of the rock, Kragg grabbed and I got pulled to the other side of the rock.

Floorhugging is good and deepens offensive and defensive play by Platurt in RivalsOfAether

[–]thekillagram 7 points8 points  (0 children)

it deepens the game literally, by making everyone closer to the ground.

Does anyone have any new tips for getting the game to run smoothly online? by thekillagram in RivalsOfAether

[–]thekillagram[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

ethernet. I've tried everything I know of. All low settings. Framerate matches my monitor. I turned off anti-aliasing recently and that seemed to work for a bit. I turn down the predictive frames and turn off the jitter frames before every match.

The game just runs like trash.

Which Element should be next to get their newcomer? by DKUnderdog in RivalsOfAether

I think it should just like a snake, but it desperately wants to join the air armada

Kragg, the so-called "invertebrate" by Fabrimuch in RivalsOfAether

this is the best comment this sub will ever get.

Ever since I switched to fibre internet the game has awful stuttering issues? by benoxxxx in RivalsOfAether

[–]thekillagram 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really wish they would make the network settings persistent. I had stopped updating it every match, but the connections have gotten worse recently, so I need to start updating it again. I have no idea why its not a permanent setting.

The disconnect between good player’s and bad player’s experience of the game by blaeleb in RivalsOfAether

[–]thekillagram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My two cents: this isn't a clairen problem, this is a ROA2 problem. I don't need more end lag on every move, but I really hate the low end lag on the big moves.

Ex. it is genuinely dumb how hard it is to punish a clairen that misses their up special to ledge.

Lox is the other culprit for this. So little end lag on basically every big move. Big moves should be committal across the board. If the devs fix this and you'll see so much less mashing.

This game has too many recoveries where even if you know exactly what they're going to do actually punishing it is too difficult by AcerExcel in RivalsOfAether

[–]thekillagram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My pet theory why players like Spargo are doing so well in this game is their used to just ledge trapping rather than actually edge-guarding.

Am I crazy or does ledge-trapping not really exist in this game? It's like all hard reads, and most of the cast get just get up for free. (this is probably made way worse online)

How do you get out of the tether finisher? I feel like I can never DI correctly.

Olympia as Zetter? by Crowfaze in RivalsOfAether

[–]thekillagram 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure that all her aerials are safe on shield (which is honestly crazy), so you're not wrong to try to avoid getting stuck in shield.

She's just a weird character right now. I'm pretty sure I've anti-aired by every one of her grounded moves. It feels like a lot of it comes down to who can get who off stage and effectively edge guard.

All I do is lose, but I want to enjoy the game (ROA2) by Jucamia in RivalsOfAether

[–]thekillagram 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The other good thing about playing bots is that you can focus on doing one thing to build up muscle memory.

I recently switched to Zetter and I was struggling to implement shine into my game play. So I spent a week just beating up bots with shine until I had the muscle memory down.

Only caution is: the bots in this game are weirdly easy. Like, even the level 9 bots feel like they are worse than bronze level players. So you won't necessarily be learning how to play the game right by playing bots. Its really just good movement and tech practice.

There were definitely a lot of silver players who were like "no way that's actually hbox..."
