@E9ine_AC, why I use as comparison Diamond lobbies, is because I think those are the most consistent ones:
- number of hackers per lobby = they are always there
- number of people in a lobby who actually are trying
- level of overall game sense, movement = you rarely see a person who has no clue in these lobbies and when you do you know he/she is 99.9% boosted account or just stoned/drunk
Otherwise sure I agree that there are people with potential to be higher ranked no matter be it Silver or Diamond, who just don't play ranked, but at the same time given I don't play public and arenas, I don't play vs them so we basically know about each other's existence only from a theoretical point of view, nothing useful for the forums 🙂
And to finalize my point/reply to you or @Balladalidila - everyone says "it is possible", yet no one says how.
In my opinion, a player who has mastered recoil control should be able to quantify and identify what it took for him/her to reach that level, and it should be replicable as any skill humans acquire by others - maybe not to 100% extent but at least to see significant progress e.g. with this "jiggling" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8_vqOo9dHw I can't hit all mag to the target seen in the clip, yet I went from hitting <10 bullets to constantly hitting half a mag or more only after ~20 min of training in the range. <- in my opinion clear sign that ok this technique works at least so much that it is not a complete scam, bs, fake news, etc.
"everyone says "it is possible", yet no one says how"
I think the most simple explanation to that is also the most accurate. Some kids (not 30+ like me =) spend countless of hours playing games like CSGO and has exceptional muscle memory of recoil controlling and some are just very talented gamers. I am old and quite casual when it comes to gaming so I usually just learn the first 30-50% of a pattern and then just pulls down the rest of the mag... I think gaming is just like any other sport or activity; some are just born to do it and some must just accept that they never will reach a certain level. I know that I will NEVER be close to be good enough to get out of Master 10.000 RP so I am happy being a "Diamond3+ player =)
But if you want a concrete tip how I like to look at it; I rather see the spray as a melody rather than a series of bullets with a certain RPM and recoil. So for L-star for instance, I listen to the sound and know the first " pew pew pew", the recoil pulls up and strongly to the left, the following "pew pew pew", i.e the forth, fifth and sixth shot, goes up and strongly to the right and the rest of the clip I just pull down. But other than that, I say its just practice I guess.
Yeah I got the same guys in my lobbies and since I also have 4k, 20 kill badges, I am one of them I guess. And since I get beamed by some masters and predators, probably in the same lobbies as you play, then perhaps its not that hard to accept that these guys would super beam you (since your K/D is quite lower than mine, not even 1)? But anyways; I do understand it must be frustrating to play this game if you are an "average" player, or even slightly above average. I mean, I get teammates who barley can do 300 dmg in a 15 min match after we (or I) have wiped 4-5 enemy squads). How fun can this matchmaking be for those guys? I guess this is just the type of very mixed matchmaking that Respawn chose for this game for better or worse. EOMM at its best =)
- Eshshshss4 years agoSeasoned Ace@Balladalidila ha ha I am not the only old fart here :D good to hear.
Even though I am still thinking about possibility to break into 10000 RP, I was closer last season given I had a one regular guy which we played with like 6-8h a day on most days but this season school started for him and I have not found a good team. As soon as I found at least 1-2 players I went instantly 1-1.5 Platinum levels up per day, but then again as soon as those players are gone and I am forced to invest RP into searching for decent players 1-1.5 levels are gone :/
I will give up on this game I guess after I get a squad of 3 and fail to reach Masters, then I will uninstall.
Until then I guess melody practice - thanks for the tip, will try to force myself into some training actually 🙂 - and more patience when facing damn hackers.
p.s. level 142 secondary - either you are playing quite a lot or the ban was not for 168 hours :P - Balladalidila4 years agoSeasoned Ace
Yeah getting a full premade if you want to climb Diamond is so important. Playing ranked with randoms at the rank where the average opponent is near or above your own skill level is a nightmare and probably not very good for your mental health so I would not even attempt it haha.
And the level 142 is bugged. I didnt play one single game with this account from S3 to like S6 but then I got banned for 24 hours on my main so when I waited for the ban to run out, I used this account again for one night of gaming where I played in Bronze. I got like 8 K/D, 2000 average damage and 50% win rate on those 10-12 matches and I guess thats why I was falsely perma-banned and when they unbanned me, they reset the account level to 100 for some reason. In reality, and according to apex tracker, the account is lvl 504 =)
- Eshshshss4 years agoSeasoned Ace@Balladalidila LOL hard to comment whether I am happy that Respawn at least follows up on such cases or sad because of what you wrote and seemingly random actions from their side...
Oh well looking forward to paid account implementation (I am sure Respawn will not miss out on additional profits) and potential end of alternative/smurf account era to of course battle the hacker :P
p.s. Maybe Respawn also didn't trust your recoil and 8 k/d 2k was not an issue :D :D :D - Eshshshss4 years agoSeasoned Ace
Just FYI under this topic - yesterday reached D4 level and in the first game there went all the way to the last circle and TOP 4, was killed by a person I have reported before:
- dude has no recoil 100%
- potentially uses wh
- was trolling discord server (Apex one) and I reported him there as well
But oh well guess what who won the game and who is in D4 earlier than me and runs the game.
Again another case where unfortunately title of this thread proves to be 100% accurate aka good go be back in Diamond lobbies! 😬

If you suspect someone is cheating do try and report it in game. Also if you can clip them you may use this discord to post the video. Be sure to use your proper region channel when posting where it happened.
- Eshshshss4 years agoSeasoned Ace@E9ine_AC thanks for the info about the discord channel, let's see how it works, hopefully, next time I will be able to record the player even though based on yesterday's experience it seems he has this hack on that forces game to spec other players even when he kills you...
Other than that, let's just be honest - ingame and easy cheat reporting website is just useless. I have reported all people including this guy in game multiple times in multiple categories given his situation, also my clips from JULY 2021 still have not been watched by Respawn/easy-cheat people https://prnt.sc/1wn2fck, until they are I will not use easy cheat website reporting option, clearly it is useless.
