07:20.36 | TutTankAhmon | hi all |
07:20.46 | blast007 | hi |
07:23.41 | TutTankAhmon | anyone has a piece of advice to improve my dodging in ducati ? |
07:23.51 | TutTankAhmon | regarding radar settings |
07:24.50 | Constitution | TutTankAhmon: if a shot is coming at you, move out of the way |
07:25.18 | TutTankAhmon | Constitution: OOOOoooooh |
07:25.35 | TutTankAhmon | That's THE trick |
07:25.45 | TutTankAhmon | i always try to stop bullets with my face |
07:26.50 | blast007 | "Look, bullet! OWWW, bullet hurt! ME KILL BULLET!! OWW!" |
07:31.05 | TutTankAhmon | "my windshield is cracked but i'm still alive har har har" |
07:33.32 | BulletCatcher | Stop trying to steal my playing secrets. |
07:34.51 | TutTankAhmon | sometimes , it's better to suicide than give a point to NTH , no ? |
07:35.27 | BulletCatcher | But seriously, adjust the size of your radar so it is as big as you can tolerate. |
07:36.11 | BulletCatcher | I have "set radarsize 26" in my config file. |
07:36.52 | TutTankAhmon | i have biggest possible radar (30) and linedradarshots to 30 |
07:37.26 | BulletCatcher | I manually set linedradarshots to 40. It seems to be just about right for me. |
07:38.10 | TutTankAhmon | i bind to keys radar zoom values 1 , 0.5 and 0.25 |
07:38.52 | BulletCatcher | I use the default zoom settings. It is fine for most maps. |
07:39.43 | BulletCatcher | For Ducati-style, you need to learn to predict where the shots will rico to. It just takes experience. |
07:39.44 | TutTankAhmon | BulletCatcher: do u use transparent radar or black background ? |
07:40.16 | BulletCatcher | Transparent, so I can still (mostly) see out the window. |
07:41.24 | BulletCatcher | I tend to aim by looking out the window. I'm not sure whether that helps or hurts more. |
07:41.37 | TutTankAhmon | ok , then i'm afraid that it's not a setting problem ; I'M SIMPLY BAD |
07:41.48 | BulletCatcher | Practice, practice, practice. |
07:41.49 | TutTankAhmon | :D |
07:41.58 | TutTankAhmon | i play since 5 years |
07:42.15 | TutTankAhmon | i hope to improve before parkinson kick me |
07:43.36 | BulletCatcher | You have Parkinson's disease? |
07:44.18 | TutTankAhmon | no, but I think that this disease would ruin my hopes to do any good score at this game |
07:44.50 | BulletCatcher | Okay, glad to hear that. Yes, it would make playing difficult. |
07:44.58 | TutTankAhmon | i'm near 40 now .... I must hurry |
07:45.16 | TutTankAhmon | :D |
07:46.12 | BulletCatcher | Older players just need to play smarter, but sometimes there is no substitute for quick reflexes. |
07:51.33 | TutTankAhmon | nothing legal, you mean :D (j/k) |
07:53.18 | blast007 | ;) |
07:53.26 | BulletCatcher | Cheating will get you banned, and therefore is not the smart thing to do. |
07:59.21 | TutTankAhmon | i'm not a teen anymore ; no interest in cheating |
08:07.01 | TutTankAhmon | is there a mean to increase thickness of radar shot lines ? |
08:12.56 | blast007 | not as far as I know |
08:13.05 | blast007 | just length |
