Have you used it? It basically does. Tier 4 alone helmet and armor will put you halfway to not being able to sprint at all.
BornLastWeek
Yup 100%. Kinda frustrating to see such a long complaint that is someone just blasting slugs or FMJ into armor and getting mad. Why not aim for unarmored portions of the target?

yea while I agree with the dude about how there isnt really any real AI. Its a marketing buzz word that caught on so we accept it and use it.
Anyways I dont like AI especially hate generative AI but there are potentially good uses for it to analyze massive amounts of data and then have a human over see the results
BornLastWeek
Yea this is what I mean. Its got nothing to do with vanguard or kernel level.
Shouldn't be a shock to anyone but the devs can see what you click on in their client!
BornLastWeek
They already have the data and vanguard has nothing to do with it. You think they need kernel level access to detect what you click on their client?
BornLastWeek
They have thousands of pieces of data to analyze here and Im not proposing it's super easy but it seems doable to track player behavior.
Roles they play Times they queue Flash vs other summoner positioning D or F What class of champs they play do they log in for ranked? normals? do they check the shop? do they check the crafting menu?
Im sure we can think of hundreds of more data points that are already collected to figure out if its the same player or if its a different one on the same machine.

barricades are absolutely not fixed for exploiting through

But it only costs so little by virtue of literally not being an epic and being a common. Commons are cheap as hell to upgrade and Epics cost a lot
BornLastWeek
Overall agree. It's just not a healthy gameplay loop for new players if they observe someone who doesn't even care about the loot in an extraction type game.
They probably correctly interpret this as someone just killing people for fun and that's always a part of extraction stuff but it shouldn't be THE only part of it.

Sure risking nothing if time has no value to you and it might not have any value to you but it does to others. So spending time in a dungeon to fight through PvE and other players to get 2 tapped by someone you had little chance against feels terrible and creates a player leak

Great to hear information on this. Dealing with low quality matches due to smurfs who lose lane and become disinterested in the game or dominate have ruined solo queue and this has been the first season in 12 years I played less than 30 games and feel my interest waning with league.

Yea you can call 'em in as Major. A lot of folks don't know. Same with the LJDAMs on NATO and on RU it's a Cruise Missile or Guided Bomb. Its on the RHS Radial menu default bound to holding ' for a second or two. Just need to have a DAGR item as NATO or the ORION as RU and I think a radio backpack?
BornLastWeek
Bolt action rifles don't have tracer rounds on WCS and if you get to major call in supply drops and it drops non-tracer round mags in there

I feel like first time you abandon you get a timer for an hour or two. Second time you get a timer for a day or two then it starts to ramp up. So genuine but rare accidents aren't huge issues
BornLastWeek
Yea I agree with ya. Sure you can discord queue to avoid it but I dont care for how people treat it like it's not a work around cause there's no basic mechanic in place
BornLastWeek
Then you eat the punishment and try to plan better next time. The punishment being probably just a timer till you can queue again which is irrelevant if you really had to run to go do something unexpected anyways

I haven't seen many confirmed cheaters out of almost 80 games but the ones I suspected haven't had Chinese names at all
BornLastWeek
Is it not apart of the game that someone was wrongfully banned? A genuine concern that it could happen to you or someone else?
BornLastWeek
Check the official response in the steam news or their discord if you want to know what was really said. It's a bit vague but seems clear to me that through the PR speak they realized it was an overzealous manual ban and apologized and are reviewing ban procedures.
BornLastWeek
Is it even a review bomb is it's a genuine issue? They banned honest players who had video proof of their exhortation. It seems legitimate to me to negatively review the game at that point. I really want the game to succeed and I think the devs did a good job trying to make it right but I don't fault the Chinese fans for feeling upset at what happened, unfortunately a shit load of xenophobia and racism has followed which is dividing the community though.
BornLastWeek
I don't mean this in the pity way but damn that's really profoundly sad.
BornLastWeek
Honestly dude I wouldn't recommend giving a video like the one the view but it's worth watching just to see how it looks when someone buys into propaganda. Crazy to see how radical their anti-west beliefs are while being huge beneficiaries of it.
And obviously you can be a beneficiary and live in the west but have complaints about our society. Using Russian or Iranian talking points instead of your own criticism is a little sad though.

yea the gun hobby is rough with it but I think it's just their version of small talk. Essentially something that 99% of people will agree with readily and is a "safe" topic.
Unfortunately I think in the larger gun influencer area it's not just small talk but it seems to benefit channels to get political. Non-political channels don't see the same growth but hopefully I'm wrong on that.

Shapeshifting removes the slow instantly. You might get 1 attack in before they get out again
I was hoping post 10 it would get a lot better cause there's just so rarely any casters to fight pre 10 but this is disheartening to see.
