#177 Apex Legends in Other Games
ComangliaOther quirks for this game

https://clips.twitch.tv/KathishIntelligentMoosePhilosoraptor
https://i.imgur.com/GLddTGj.png the last frame.
The last peacekeeper shot of mine, in the very last frame before I died it shows my peacekeeper having gone down to 0 ammo from 1. Show my projectiles hitting the lifeline and the blood mist starting to form around the lifeline.
server has me as dead before my shot fired.
^solid evidence that the client renders projectiles and even hits before they even exist on the server

Ye, that's client-side prediction (followed by lag compensation on the authoritative server)
To maintain the illusion that you're playing in the same world as other players, at the same moment as other players, your game client shows you what you're doing in real-time without asking if the server agrees first, when the server and the client disagree on what's happening, the server always decides what is the outcome and the client tries its best to show you what actually happened (depending on implementation). There's no real good way to convey all of this in a very short amount of time, so the client will just lie to your face about what happened, even though it feels like you're being cheated on.

Also if you slow down clips/vods of gameplay with a lot of SMGs/ARs you'll notice that the client will render some tracers as red and some as yellow. Nearly all projectiles that will count as a hit will have a red tracer even if the bullet hasn't necessarily hit the model yet.

Considering the speed of bullets and max acceleration of players, you can be pretty much certain >90% of the time about the outcome of a bullet's trajectory, what I imagine they do is, when you shoot, run the simulation for a couple frames in the future, extrapolating where the bullets and players will be, and picking the wanted color.

Those are quirks to all multiplayer games based on the Quake 3 networking model, some games hide it better than others, it seems that the low tickrate and high simulation load of Apex Legends makes it easier to notice.
If they haven't already, they can spend the time working on load and network optimization (they probably should hire Glenn Fiedler one more time), which will let them push for higher tickrates. Don't forget that the average internet connection plays a huge role in how much they can push to clients, I'm willing to bet most of their playerbase is running on ~2mbps, that quickly gets clogged up.

#32 What's got you down? in Off Topic
ScrewballTF2 isn't what it used to be and there will never be another game that fills the hole thanks to modern games being marketed to the lowest common denominator.

I've been trying to put time in a game of my own, heavily inspired by 6v6 TF2 when it peaked (2012-2016?), I'm realising it's a huge amount of work and it's getting me questioning.
Up until recently, I had the chance to live with my parents for free, but this year they're getting separated and might need to start working "for real".

Not even a cheeky joke about faking one's own death? Aw

Probably too low of a fruit for the genius that is Carpet Johnson

this is what happens when you nuke the neighbouring colors

explanation is prob something like "eyes perceive more green than red and blue, brain makes up for a bunch of shit by comparing constrast between colors"

#4 TF2-related nightbot commands in TF2 General Discussion

Hey (sorry for necro), if the commands showed a bunch of errors like "Right-hand side of 'instanceof' is not an object", you're gonna need to update the commands to fix them, I recently got them all working again.

#4 TfTrue not enabling in Q/A Help

TFTrue does work on windows (with the .dll), you don't need metamod and/or sourcemod to run it.

You'll know that you installed it properly if you see it mentioned in the status command (might need rcon status, I don't recall)

The download ZIP should contain the instructions, make sure you put the files in the right location, it's possible your provider doesn't let you access the right folders but that's unlikely
It should look something like Team Fortress 2 Dedicated Server/tf/addons/TFTrue.dll

It's also possible the Windows hooks are outdated, in which case you'll have to ask AnAkkk to update it

Mouldhoolisome good resources ive been using:

Does anyone know if this is more csgo style recoil or dirty bomb?
As in does the crosshair move upward or do you need to be aiming lower? I haven't noticed the crosshair moving up but I also haven't found myself missing every shot like I would in csgo

Crosshair moves upward, you can verify this by looking straight up and shooting a mag

#101 RGL 6s league in TF2 General Discussion

A cargo cult is a belief system among members of a relatively undeveloped society in which adherents practice superstitious rituals hoping to bring modern goods supplied by a more technologically advanced society.
Cargo cults often develop during a combination of crises. Under conditions of social stress, such a movement may form under the leadership of a charismatic figure. This leader may have a "vision" (or "myth-dream") of the future, often linked to an ancestral efficacy ("mana") thought to be recoverable by a return to traditional morality. This leader may characterize the present state as a dismantling of the old social order, meaning that social hierarchy and ego boundaries have been broken down.

jill was never spoken to about the league by the way

tojotwiikuuAnyone manage to prevent crashes ?
After ~15 minutes I get crash to desktop with no error message, some days it just doesn't happen
i5 6500 & r9 390, fresh windows install

also add me @twiikuu for europ gaming
a friend of mine has the same problem, if anyone has a solution that would be sicko pog

some people are telling me it's GPU problems, i updated my AMD drivers but i still crashed in a longer game
i have another theory, to those who are having these kind of crashes, what's the quality of your internet ? i have some shitty VDSL2 maxed at 2mbps and i have a hunch this has something to do with it. i suggest you keep task manager with the performance tab open to see if your net is spiking just before you crash

Tino_RE Random CTD:

you can fix it by disabling usage sharing in the options - DarkNecrid

it didn't fix it, i've had disabled since i installed origin

Max_Right when i begin having fun I crash or get sent back to the lobby :(

Also, anyone else get the slow motion servers where everything is slowed down and really laggy?

that's when the server is getting so choked that it can't perform the game simulation in real-time, if you get used to it, it's kinda sick imo (esp with the wingman)

this game is fucking sick

I've heard cheaters were able to do that, I assume it was either that or a server plugin replicating that
