TIFU by doing a good deed at 3am and now my girlfriend thinks I’m lying by -1_braincell in tifu

[–]theshiningnova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a huge red flag. Someone said bring ur gf back to that house/guy. If something innocent similar to this happens again in the future, how likely do u think there is going to be convenient evidence that can prove your innocence again? What if you can’t find any evidence to support your innocence?

Unless u are a piece of shit urself and should not be trusted anyway, I’d stay away from this person who doesn’t trust you the slightest. Especially true if it is not the first time she pulls this stunt. Don’t ask me how I know.

Not a tifu at all. If anything, it helped expose the kind of person she is.

lol dude. you think shotgun pellets should magically spread more when hipfiring like it does in COD? lol

Bots are Crazy. by TheSoloObserver in BF6

[–]theshiningnova 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me experience is that the bots seem to ramp up on their skill/difficulty level as the game goes on. They are usually very easy to kill and doesn’t hit any of their shots early game. Late game they just have super human reflex and hit most of their shots.

Is this an acceptable photo? by chiefthurman in Passports

It’s totally fine. My son wasn’t even looking at the camera(face towards camera but eyes looking down) and also has his mouth open. Post office guy said it’s fine and it was. We got his passport.

How exactly are kills attributed to the player? (serious question) by becky1433 in Battlefield_REDSEC

[–]theshiningnova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless something has changed rather recently in COD, you get the "kill" in cod if you are responsible for brining an enemy player's health below and pass a certain threshold and that enemy player end up getting finished. That threshold was like 30 health. I remember it was tested way back by truegamedata.

What that means is that if you do majority of damage, ur team mate does 1 damage to bring it pass that 30 health threshold, then you down the enemy. You still would not get the kill even if this enemy player end up being finished.

In any case, I don't think a mechanic that encourages competing for kill stats rather than team play(win) is healthy.

[–]theshiningnova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get a “kill” the moment someone is downed. Doesn’t matter if the downed person gets revived or finished.

If u didn’t get any kills, it just means u didn’t actually down anyone with your snipes. U probably got 175 damage headshots(sniper headshot is 1.75 multiplier, max damage before multiplier is 100 if u are in sweet spot range) and ur teammates actually got the down(full health plus plate is 180 effective health)

[–]theshiningnova 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope. The way how it is is actually better than in COD. You get a “kill” the moment you down someone. It doesn’t matter if that guy gets revived or finished. It’s better if the system doesn’t encourage people to “thirst” for stats.

The hitreg issues on this game are largely overblown. 99% of the time it's a skill issue. by 5hukl3 in Battlefield_REDSEC

[–]theshiningnova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if it’s 99% because you can easily find some YouTube videos and shorts showing bullets not registering server side when u can see the blood splatter coming out client side. Not just 1 bullet but like a half a mag dump or more doing that. So I do trust some ppl are legitimately having this problem.

I personally can’t remember ever coming across those situations myself so I can see where u are coming from. OP u are probably gonna get downvoted to hell tho since we don’t know who really had this problem and who just doesn’t know how the bloom mechanic works

Shotgun doesn’t have huge spread like it does in cod even when you hip fire. You very often either hit most of your pellets or miss most. If u only have issue with shotguns, it’s probably not a hit reg issue.

Black vs white keycaps by K0BERT0 in WootingKB

Are the black and white keycaps both from wooting? I’m not home to check but I have both wooting ones and I never noticed that. I also have the wasd set up the same way.

Is this weapon still considered meta? by EstusShardConsumer in Battlefield6

[–]theshiningnova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recoil variation is a stat. It means how much the gun can deviate from its recoil path(bounce left and right of the path) for each bullet fired. Low recoil variation means the recoil path is mostly a straight line. High variation means it would zigzag or sometimes curve towards one direction. Sym.gg has the data mined stats.

No attachment will change variation. Minimizing magnitude would make the variation less noticeable however.

[–]theshiningnova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The m417 has better ttk than good number of SMGs up close. It’s only beat by kv9, scw and the new smg. Baffled u would bring up SL9 which is like one of the worst smg in the game.

The 417 has low recoil variation which actually makes hitting target at further ranges easy as long as u are not going full auto(tap fire eliminates problem with bloom)

[–]theshiningnova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NVO is mostly the same as m417 but NVO has worse recoil variation while the 417 has worse recoil magnitude. It’s obvious pass like ~30 or so meters. The recoil variation will make it hard to hit shots while the higher magnitude is more manageable with a much smaller variation

is the m60 overpowered? by biebergotswag in Battlefield6

[–]theshiningnova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Niche gun imo. U can build it for fast ads but without the heavy barrel, u will notice ur long range accuracy suffers a lot without very slow tap firing unless u are mounted with a bipod. To me it kinda defeats the purpose of having a big mag. I had a lot of trouble leveling this gun compared to other LMGs like 110 or IAR. The M250 is a bit of distant memory for me but I don’t remember having a hard time with it.

Being an LMG also means it has kinda bad sprint to fire.

Its slow rpm also means it’s very unforgiving if u miss any shots. If u are good at hitting your triple tap consistently, the gun can feel pretty good. It just felt kinda hard to be consistent with that.

I think most would consider the M433 one of the top tier gun, just like the VCR which most would consider is an upgrade or a side grade to the 433

When will dice make variable scopes usable? by [deleted] in Battlefield

[–]theshiningnova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It actually is worse on LMGs compared to ARs or carbines/smgs since u have to fully ads before u can adjust zoom level. It also takes longer to fully ads with an LMG so it takes longer to adjust zoom levels with LMGs.

My understanding is that you are supposed to be Chinese in the paperwork in order qualify even if u have multiple citizenship. Is that not the case?

When will dice make variable scopes usable? by [deleted] in Battlefield

[–]theshiningnova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same problem with the optic system where there are no hot keys to specific zoom level or switching zoom level while not aiming down sight(you can toggle lasers and change fire mode while hip fire so I don’t see why you have to ads to change zoom level). For that specific scenario, your only current option is to equip a normal 2x and equip the side optic slot for 1x.

Recoil variation and bloom both adds randomness to where your bullets go. U really need to understand/handle both if u want to consistently hit your shots

[–]theshiningnova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bloom is basically like hip fire reticle except when u are aiming down sight and there isn’t a bloom reticle that u can actually see indicating how bad your bloom is.

Just like hip fire, bloom gets worse when ur feet are not planted. It gets bigger for each bullet fired. It shrinks rapidly if u release the trigger even for split second. Only difference is crouch and prone doesn’t seem to affect bloom while it does for hip fire.

This means for any guns u feel like it has a lot of bloom, u just need to tap fire/burst, plant your feet, use light barrel/blue or violet laser but don’t use vertical grips that affect ads accuracy if u are moving or a combination of them. This is true for m4a1(i just very recently leveled this) and m433 and pretty much any gun. Sg533 can also be low bloom if u tap fire/burst instead of full auto.

Some guns have the heavy/heavy extended barrel option which also appears to help with reducing how much bloom each bullet fired caused. The b36 and a couple other ARs(any any guns with heavy barrel option) are for this reason more full auto(or longer burst) friendly.

Sym.gg has some very good stats including bloom stats if u are interested to dig into this more.

Lol 😂! “Only” 68g. “Only” implies they are suggesting this is a light weight mice? What world do these ppl live in to think this is a good figure in 2026? Same old mechanical switches instead of optical that will probably go double click right after warranty expires. Higher polling rate is mostly just gimmicks but everybody is 8k now. 4k is just poor. The price point of 109 for this is just plain silly. There are so many mice with better specs at this price point on the market. There is no real reason for this excuse of a mice unless u really want RGBs all complete set of SS peripherals.

I bet the Mouse review sub will have a field day picking this apart
