I am slowly exploring popular games after being locked in my bubble of tac fps games. I should prolly just try it out myself but am still curious about ur opinions.

I did try this game couple years back (remember playing loba and bloodhound?) but my experience was just looting like a bot for 70% of the game and feeling lost info wise, having no awareness about enemy squads and getting caught in awkward positioning, perma dying. So please recommend me characters that have like scans and sonar tracking.

My main issues are that my native res is 1920x1080 and last time I tried playing this game I had bunch of issues with clarity and view distance. I do have a much better monitor now. But isn’t 1440p much easier on eyes especially on battle royal games.

Other concerns are cheaters and hearing controller aim is busted since I’m on kbm

Thanks!

Solo queue has been miserable for me, especially with premades. Why are players like the one linked below, with poor tracker stats, able to keep a positive win rate while duoing or trioing with players who are clearly much better than them?

Stats aren't everything, but you can't explain choosing to not shift-walk all game, seem completely unconcerned about winning, and contribute very little every round. As a solo player, it feels like almost every game is ruined by a duo or trio, whether it's on my team or the enemy's.

Please don't tell me to just focus on my own gameplay, I know I can always improve. But sometimes it's obvious someone is underperforming and doesn't belong in my lobby just from spectating their micro gameplay like aim or movement and also how much they contribute with any kind of info from minimap alone. no comms is not my concern, im completely fine with looking at my mini map or using audio queues for info gathering.

atp is it simply better to find a duo who's trying to win and reduce the chances of getting these players on my team? Just need advice cos i really feel like im improving but theres no progress in my rank as in actual indicator of imporvement, if that makes sense.

Only had my instant pot for a month and it was fine until last few times I cooked, the metallic pressure indicator that’s supposed to rise when enough pressure has built up won’t rise on its own, if I stick a fork or knife in it and manually lift it up after a while, it doesn’t set back down rather stays locked rising.

Idk what’s the issue, I’ve tried changing how the gasket fits cos it looks like it can be flipped, I’ve tried cleaning properly and all that but still had this issue last time i tried using it.

The indicator thingy starts releasing too much water/steam and so the first time it happend my rice got dried up and started burning at the bottom (when I didn’t manually lift the thing).

Is this common cos my ip is pretty newish. What’s the fix?
Thanks.

I have close to no routine. It’s very flexible and fluctuates a lot. I don’t have friends and never had any so I’m always afraid of going to unfamiliar places all by myself. I am an immigrant student living alone, I feel like I don’t belong anywhere because I was always moving places even as a kid with my somewhat toxic family. I chose to study abroad just because I wanted to be away from them, escape home and get a fresh start. When I left home I lost my eating routine. I skip a lot of meals, I lost a lot of weight, I look too skinny. I ignore my responsibilities and watch media and game all day on my pc. I rarely go out. I lie to my parents about skipping classes and being healthy or happy.i just got a warning that if I fail another course I’ll be kicked out. So I’m really wanna try get my shit together over the summer and be a normal human.

Only reason I don’t feel done with life is cos I am in a ldr and I care about her and I want to be a better person for her. Like a reason to be alive. I was kind of suicidal before I met her, just out of pure loneliness.

Is this depression or is this an addiction which causes procrastinating which further feeds my addiction like a cycle.

How do I fix myself? I do well one day and I am back to my messy room the next day.
Do I need therapy?

Thanks.

something like csgo or val or r6 or anything similar that's somewhat competitive but also not too team reliant. I dont mind if it's a little bit fast paced as long as it's less demanding in terms of team coordination.

Thanks!

Always been alone, never made a friend. Never had personal space or privacy at home with my toxic family so I cried in washrooms or blankets. Or I just couldn’t handle the loneliness I’d just tear up anytime I couldn’t keep my mind busy with things. bottling up my emotions when I felt alone and flooding my pillow with tears at nights. School was trash i hated the kids there, everyone had a friend group in my class. I wasn’t allowed gadgets till I graduated high school, not even a phone. Covid hit and my high schooling was completely online. As a way to cope I started playing online multiplayer games. I didn’t communicate but I just gamed all day in the pc used for online classes. It somehow made me feel less lonely with wordless interactions with other players, made me lose track of time. Almost as if I am just like everyone else. I have missing front teeth soa fair gap since birth, covered my face while smiling and kids started making fun of me, so I stopped smiling with my lips open. I never had actual conversations with anyone. Internet made me escape reality.

Moved out abroad to escape home for further studies. Thought I’d have a fresh start, saw so many differences between me and anyone else at this new place. I started feeling uncomfortable in my own skin. Afraid of judgment from anyone. Locked myself in my room most days, starved and became so skinny. Studies became uninteresting. Eyes locked on the screens all day to cope from reality. Changed so many things about me just to fit in with others, tried to go out of my comfort zone. got more scared of being judged, extreme anxiety even thinking about going to unfamiliar places by myself. Living alone doing things by myself all alone.

Always hated my thin voice and accent, mouth shut all the time unless I was mumbling to myself, I think I lost some of my voice, recently tried taking first few steps talking to people online in video games and I got instantly ghosted or blocked just because of the way I sound or speak. Tried texting people I met at Uni about casual stuff to start a convo and nobody looked interested in befriending me. I think I’m cursed and paying for sins I did in previous life. What did I do to deserve this kind of life. I never try to hurt anyone not even a fly. I am always nice to others. Someone commented I’ve a poker emotionless face and I agree cos I forgot how to express how I feel. In group works at classes they say “Why are you always so quiet?” Yeah I wonder why.

It hurts so much sometimes, i don’t allow myself to be idle or i get emotional otherwise. i can’t help but think about my lonely life when someone treats me wrong. The world feels so cruel when i am being nice to everyone. Wish I had a pet dog I could just hug and cry to. Because people have been so mean to me.

Hi, I’m in kind of a sad situation. I never had close friends just study acquaintances throughout school. And now I’m by myself all the time at my uni. Part of it is because I was always moving places with my family and part of it is pretty complicated to explain.

Finishing my second year and I don’t really have anyone to talk to. I’m introverted and recently very self conscious about my speech and the way I talk. I’m in a LDR but we mostly text and rarely call each other.

Just need someone in kind of a similar situation who would just like to hop on calls often and just have a chat or game together. Cos I get nervous when talking in general and want to fix my verbal communication. Connecting with people in person gets tough being an immigrant and not having the same upbringing or the same first language. no common ground and so many differences.

I dont have much hobbies and interests. I mostly play tac fps pc games and watch tv shows sometimes and I like some music.

Hi idk the best sub to ask this

I upgraded to a 400hz monitor and pretty often my fps drops to 300s for few seconds, is that a bad thing or not too big of a deal? If so would it be better if I capped it at 300 in game so it’s stable? I honestly can’t tell the difference cos it’s not a drastic sudden drop in fps rather kinda gradual but short and it only happens when I can’t really observe the jitter mid fights.

Are you supposed to leave it at uncapped generally? Thanks!
