spectator Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Well had some good fights today but got spanked a little bit too. When there's too many medics, flames, FGS I don't really do very well. When it's say 5 on 5 and it's med players and what not I can do alright. I might get a monitor... if it helps maybe that's enough to atleast help me improve upon myself and rule out that advantage other players may have over me.

I have 28" 4K 61Hz monitors now. for 144Hz, you're looking at minimum $800 bucks and I run 2 Monitors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElEl Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 I play at 800x600 at 60hz, a monitor isn't going to make you play better. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectator Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 (edited) Maybe, maybe it's whatever works for you. Either way I'm in no hurry to go out and spend on one. I was somewhat curious if it would make any difference but taking into consideration that it might do nothing, I'm in no hurry to buy one. I'm not looking for magical solutions, I'm just curious if there are ways to enhance the gaming experience. 😄 ( It sort of makes sense, I get where Phantom is coming from... but it was his suggestion.) I'll consider your opinion too, definitely not fixing on buying one soon for a 20 year old game... Mai is a good player too, played with him today...it was fun. He's smart though, he'll use FG42 when he knows it will be effective. OH WOW I'm in El's signature. I feel special. ❤️ Edited April 2, 2021 by spectator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHNTM Posted April 4, 2021 Author Share Posted April 4, 2021 I'm going to buy a 34" ultrawide 144hz monitor not because I need it for ET because my current 24" is more than enough but I need the extra space for having windows side by side. Obviously I wouldn't buy anything lower that 144hz, everything is just so much smoother. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haruhi Suzumiya Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Going from a 70hz to a 144+ hz monitor is so... refreshing 😅 Can't say it'll improve your abilities or anything but your eyes will love it. @PHNTM Until I finished reading your comment I thought you were going to fullscreen on a 34" . Was gonna be like nahhh homiee! Too much to take in! You'll break your neck! @spectator Focus more on your movement. I'm not a fan of people saving sprint for battle but I'd recommend doing just that for a while and work on your strafing. If you move better you're harder to hit and if you match their strafe that means less mouse movement and less bullet spread. If the knockback from getting hit seems overwhelming try upping your FOV if it's not too high already. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectator Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 (edited) I think that this should the be official difficult target music video.... I think this accurately shows how it feels like to play against some of these players and you imagine them doing this behind the scenes....
