    @BaldWraithSimpLolz I don’t dabble in the devil’s radish but that sounds about 80% of the random pub game composition actions... XD

    Best immersive gameplay? Big screen tv, big screen console, big screen audio setup, big screen VR headset, check?

    Fire up all except the last. Put an mp game for great accountibility. Start the game, put on the VR headset, suck so hard but have so much fun seeing nothing but hearing all the sounds of you probably dying over and over and if there’s team chat hearing “who th is this noob in our team”, “what is this guy doing”, “this guy’s costing us the game”’ “AAAAAAAHHHHHHH” XD.

    Now thats immersive gameplay 😜

    @MandatoryIDtag stop making such interesting threads where I feel the need to participate and this won’t happen! XD this is squarely on you good sir! You should at least know which threads I’ll participate in! even without the intent on derailing it like the Ghost Train of Harry Potter (disclaimer: only seen 1/2 harry potter films... and dunno if there’s even such a train or if it derails... I figure there would be such a train). So I take no responsibility!

  • @Koochi-Q  I did drop the word "Relevant" in the OP to try and scare you off lmao, clearly didn't work like. ;p

    I probably threw down the mantle if anything haha.

    @MandatoryIDtagHey, I offered good advice at first with no intent of derailing :P but then it sorta... happend. Kinda like being born...

    It’s just like you were in space fighting millions of your brethren and... sisthern(??????? XD) while screaming Y X! Y X! Since you can’t talk obviously you just screem your chromosomatic composition while also meaning to say ‘Y(ou’re) X(dead)’

    And the next memory you have is of you being 3 years old and falling down your junior chair cause you saw a shiny coin and you got hawkbrained :P

    Okay, this was a whole new lvl of insanity... I deserve a prize for this one XD

    to get us back on track (pun not intended when typing it up but my brain made that clicking so now it is) I’ll say: either put in the manhours or suck forever. You’re only as good as the game allows you to be. In no FPS you’re gonna be equally as good. 

    I’ve played many an FPS. In general I suck in non of them 😈 I’m usually in top 3 at the end score, but I do know that in other FPS games I am weaker due to maybe a slower pace or game mechanics I dont like. 

    R6S for instance. In the beginning, I was totally into it cause everybody just rushed. If rush is the game mode, I’ll take you out faster than a poor but handsome bachelor takes out an unappealing braces wearing with freckles infested on her face nerd girl who has money coming out the rear just to get a quick payday. So I did quite well. Then ranked came along and my gosh... the game was so boring cause ppl started playing the game the way it was supposed to be played. 

    You’d see everyone camera’ing, making holes in barricades for quick peeps. Then you’d have me knowing ppl’s usual spot. Create a distraction and then charge in another entrance guns blazing like a madman XD

    So in short, if you up your overall FPS skills, it’ll reflect in Apex... just try and forget the low server response times. You’ll think CoD’s are first class which we all know are not...

    @WingmannedbroRead the book: Drugs & Alcohol: gebruik, misbruik en verslaving. It’s in your native tongue since a dutch buddy quoted a couple of things to me, then report back to me. Half of that book is about alcohol alone if I remember correctly.

    Easier quote is just from here: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/you-illuminated/201006/your-brain-alcohol%3Famp

    @apostolateofDOOMlolz nice one! I like science-y talk!

    Your source lists some researchers findings of elevated levels of Norepinephrine. This is not basis to call alcohol an upper since Norepinephrine levels frankly have nothing to do with the classification "upper" or "downer".

    When talking about drugs, this two groups are selected on the sole criteria whether or the drug in question increases or simulates or decreases GABA.

    Also, your source does not list the research he refers.

    Here's a bit to read:

    "(GABAA) receptors appear to occupy a central role in mediating the effects of ethanol in the CNS. GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian CNS, and activation of GABAA receptors by GABA tends to decrease neuronal excitability. This article reviews several aspects of GABAA receptor and ethanol interactions, including the evidence for short- and long-term modulation of GABAA receptors by ethanol and evidence for a GABAA receptor-related genetic component of alcoholism."

    @Wingmannedbro Unfortunately my neurology is rusty, but the neurotransmitter GABA levels increasing or decreasing doesn’t take away that slight levels of alcohol increases your energy and makes you more aware as a result, so it may not be an ‘upper’ in the traditional sense, but it is an upper in the sense that it raises energy.

    Just like energy drinks or high levels of sugar first make you more alert and energetic and afterwards the sugar crash begins.

    But like I said, read the book. It’s likely available at every university that has psychology courses in your country (probably an updated version). It’s riddled with evidence backed studies since it not only focuses on psychology, but also neurology and physiology.
  • @Koochi-Q 

    I think you mostly misunderstood what you read tho, the man is a psychologist and discusses drinking behavior and circumstantial factors. Particularly in young people this is often at parties and nights out in the weekend, and in the company of friends and/or romantic partners.

    Those settings alone will trigger natural production of stimulants, such as norepinephrine which is mentioned. Yet none of those are attributed to the ethanol molecule.

    Psychology is not a source on medical science.


  • Know where your teammates are and where they are heading. You should always be aware of when they are too far behind you and don't have your back, or when they are moving on while your still looting/camping. But especially when you are about to engage an enemy, even a solo player.

    At times this game gets very chaotic with several squads fighting each other at once. During these times, squad mates will often split off to chase down a player they damaged or to try and flank a group. But the best thing you can usually do during those moments is stick close as a team and move as a team. It gives you a serious advantage when there's a whole bunch of lone and weakened players running around.

  • @Extremejinks  100% agree bud, one player over stretching can shatter the entire squad. This is something i look for constantly as a sniper, as that one player out of position is

    A)  An easy kill

    B) Potentially 2 easy kills depending on whether i can get a shot on the revive.

    C) breaks a squads formation.
