Ya it's a bull**** system. Winning doubles constantly going positive 10+ in nearly ever win, mixing up weapons to use to kill and such, and I'm stuck at a 45 in Doubles. It's gotten to the point that I'm going to let my friend play my account while I play his so we can level. Since we don't play alike, the system will see us winning with new "skill" and rank us up. That's what people say works, we going to try.

Sorry if I sound like a jerk but I checked your games and you win only about half of your Team Doubles games. The games that you lost, you went negative. Also, to be honest, your kill/death ratio isn't up where most level 45-50s should be. The system also checks the headshots and that assault rifle isn't gonna get you many headshots.

I've won more than half of my games at in Doubles. Lately no, I haven't playing it seriously just going in to bull**** around and see what happens, hell I've let my brother play my doubles just to see what happens (win, lost, repeat). I'm tired of doubles so I'm not trying in that anymore. Doubt I'll try anymore. I should be 50, I've played 45+ with several 50's and beaten them all, they shouldn't be there (beaten as in got steaktacular's of them). The whole system is flawed, since you find kids at 50 who shouldn't and you find kids stuck at 30 who should be higher up. The system sucks, in general.

People need to learn how to play objective based matches. Just played a game of capture the flag where we got own because we only managed to touch their flag twice. People treat it like a slayer match instead of going for the actual objectives.

1. How am I supposed to know who it is? No one ever leaves a message explaining who the invite is from.

2. I try to only add people I know and talk to. It's nothing personal, but I'd have a crap load of friends, otherwise. When I play Halo, I only party up with my buddies from work or, sometimes, Netrack.

^^^Nice game!

I've been offline for a while (probably 2 weeks or so now) but I should be back on this weekend (it's been a hellish couple of weeks with schoolwork, but it's all good after this week) so if you guys aren't too busy playing other stuff, I'll be back on.

Man, Swords in Lone Wolves is ****ing terrible. Basically, every encounter is both swords negating each other while both people bash the trigger trying to get another strike in. It seems like my sword never resets as quickly as their's either so I'm always ****ed. Every other mode in Lone Wolves I handle fine, but this swords thing is a mess. It's all about smashing buttons instead of actually having any tactics.

Hmm, that is definitely not the case, actually. There is a lot more tactics involved in a sword match than you might think, apparently. The key is, when you sword clash, instead of hitting the trigger again, hit Melee (if you are close enough) and you'll usually get the kill (which is probably why you're always losing those encounters). In addition, you have to pick and chose your encounters, bait people with grenades, sneak up on people, steal kills, etc. There is definitely more to it than you think.

    • Apple releases iOS 27 Beta 2 for developers and power users

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple releases iOS 27 Beta 2 for developers and power users by Aditya Tiwari It's been a couple of weeks since Apple previewed the iOS 27 update during the WWDC official keynote. The upcoming iOS version will bring even more refinements to the Liquid Glass design language, an upgraded Siri AI assistant, and several new Apple Intelligence features. Interestingly, the latest WWDC keynote was different than previous years. Apple has released the iOS 27 beta 2 (build 24A5370h) for developers who want to test the new features being baked for the iPhone and optimize their apps. If you're interested in downloading the latest beta, go to Settings > General > Software Update > beta Updates, then choose iOS 27 Developer Beta. You can download the latest iOS 27 beta on more than 30 supported iPhones. Make sure you know what you are doing since developer betas can be unstable and unexpected at times. If you want to be on the safer side, you can wait for the public beta, which will arrive next month. It's been a while since Apple discontinued its AirPort router lineup. Now, the company said in the iOS 27 beta 2 release notes that the AirPort Utility is deprecated and won't be available for new downloads from the App Store. Apple added that if you previously downloaded the app, you can re-download it. However, the functionality isn't guaranteed when using the AirPort Utility on iOS 27 or later. Speaking of known issues, Apple said that the Portrait mode blur effect might render incorrectly for photos; you may be unable to stop an alarm from the lock screen without unlocking your iPhone; the "Add a Control" button in Control Center edit mode might appear small or clipped. There are several new features in iOS 27 beta 2 as well. It comes with Neural Engine improvements for Apple Intelligence, including better performance when loading large models over 1GB. HomeKit Secure Video recordings are processed on-device and through Private Cloud Compute for video descriptions and search, when Apple Intelligence is enabled in the Home app. That said, you can also download the second betas of macOS 27 Golden Gate, iPadOS 27, watchOS 27, and other Apple operating systems.
    • AMD 26.6.2 driver brings FSR 4.1 support to RDNA 3 RX 7000 series graphics cards

      By RejZoR · Posted

      FSR 4.1 is insanely superior to FSR 3. Like, FSR 4.1 Performance looks better than FSR 3.1 Quality. It's great they are finally enabling it for RX 7000 users. A bit late, but I guess better late than never.

      Was it the way the cars handled in 4? or was it the choices you had to make?

      Exactly.
    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      By Parallax Abstraction · Posted

      I understand the position Valve is in with hardware pricing thanks to the AI bubble, but as others have said, this is DOA at this price point. There's no world in which a machine at that performance level is worth that price. My girlfriend's a console gamer and after meeting me, wanted to try PC but wanted something she could use on her TV with a controller. The Steam Machine is basically tailor made for her, but only at what it would have cost before the hardware crisis. I took my old Lenovo Legion laptop with a Ryzen 5800H and a 3060 Mobile 8GB, put Bazzite on it and it does the same thing with the games she's interested in very well. She still likes the Steam Machine, but won't be touching it until component prices are back in the sane range. I know Valve isn't a charity, but I don't know why they're not willing to at least partially subsidize this device or even take a loss on it during the component crisis, just to build some market share. Then again, the Steam Deck is also a complete ripoff at its current price and they can barely keep them in stock so...
