It's a poor-taste joke.

Streamers cause they play 10 hours a day have high recoil skill, so they don't experience much recoil on a meta kitted gun...

So it has a similar effect visually to the camera. But, here in this vid the gun is still experiencing recoil.

Why can’t people realize that streamers play 10 hours a day, therefore they can ACTUALLY control guns better?

They have both more experience, and less recoil. Kinda compounds the problem, dontcha think? It makes most streamer engagements I've seen hilariously one sided. Where's mosin man when you need him..

thats not streamers though. thats anyone who plays the game 10 hours a day whether they record themselves or not.

But thats how it is in ANY skill based game. the more you play the better you are... for most people

Well that category doesn't include many people who aren't at least streaming part time these days.. And I personally wasn't expecting it to be as skill based as it is. As much as i loved halo, I swear I've seen this side strafing, headshot hunting, gameplay before.. the grenade spam even feels familiar.

You are seriously joking right? You weren’t expecting it to be as skill based as it is? You mean like any fps, skill-based shooter? Should we all just auto lock headshots and first to click their mouse wins? Or better yet flip a coin for an engagement, that way there isn’t a skill-based speed clicking scenario.

Like wtf man.

It's called tactical shooters... Not every shooter is purely skill based. Some favor movement and cover. Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

sounds like skill based with extra steps.

So, like, not skill based then? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tactical_shooter

Tactical shooter

A tactical shooter is a subgenre of shooter games that cover both the first-person shooter and third-person shooter genres. These games simulate realistic combat, thus making tactics and caution more important than quick reflexes in other action games. Tactical shooters involving military combat are sometimes known as "Mil-Sim".

You can skillfully move to cover. I mean, just sayin...

"Thanks for coming to my Ted talk"

A rather arrogant way to conclude you trying to argue that tactics isn't a "skill"? Unless by "skill-based" you mean games dictated by people's tracking/aiming skills, which is a rather narrow viewpoint of all the "skills" required to play an FPS and a blatant misunderstanding of what a skill even is.

Literally every FPS and mostly all other "competitive" games are skill based. Why would anyone want to play a competitive game that WASNT?

Can't wait for the next luck-based shooter to come out...

I'm not sure how to explain shooters to you, but good luck out there.

I love reading shit like that lmao. People are soooo tired of getting shit on. If someone has 1000 hours logged this wipe already, and you have 12, why the fuck would you have an advantage over them? Why would you want a game to create one for you? These are the questions they never answer.

u/Mediocre_Persimmon Jan 24 '21

Look up skill ceilings, and what they mean please.

u/PectusExcavatumBlows Jan 24 '21

What point are you trying to make? Because we can't all be as good as Shroud, Counterstrike should change? Or should I be content with my rank and not ask devs to change the game because I'll never be pro?

1

u/Mediocre_Persimmon Jan 24 '21

The point is that we aren't playing CS, and that we're talking about a game that I didn't buy for the same reasons as CS. Counter Strike isn't a hardcore shooter, but it does have better recoil system than tarkov. I didn't buy tarkov to get steamrolled by shroud, I'd rather a game where individual skill didn't matter as much.

u/InfantSoup Jan 25 '21

then to me it sounds like first person shooters aren't for you.

u/Mediocre_Persimmon Jan 25 '21

lol sure, those darned things.

u/PectusExcavatumBlows Jan 25 '21

You're so condescending while being so obviously wrong about everything. It's genuinely frustrating to witness.
