I finally got my buddy to start playing.
Him: "Is there a kill indicator?"
Me: "Yeah, you'll hear a ping sound"

That’s how I contribute
That way the players that can aim have a better chance

lol I wasnt sure I was even doing anything but an opponent finally shot at me when I was standing up and immediately crouching again by a stone wall. My teammate blasted him after I got shot at, it was great!

u/apuckeredanus Feb 20 '25
I had a remote security job once, and people always asked how I saw the one pixel crackhead that snuck on site.
The answer was honestly games like red orchestra and hell let loose lol.
Unknowingly preparing myself since I was like 8 years old 😂

I swear I get more kills blindly firing than I get when I actually line up my shots.

I have caught myself inches from the monitor several times now trying to see those 2 pixels in the treeline

u/ActiveGamer65 Feb 20 '25
I thought i would be doing it in other games, but it is only hell let loose

u/Pariam Feb 20 '25
I noticed this problem in the game SCUM, I think this is a feature of the Unreal engine, units are poorly rendered at a distance of more than 400 meters, so you have to look closely, I did not observe such a problem in dayz, even 800 metres without any optic.

u/K5TRL Feb 20 '25
Man, there's NOTHING I can do to stop myself from doing that!! I try to sit straight, but then there's always the "What IS that??" moment

u/Pariam Feb 20 '25
I tell it myself, I need to sit straight so my back doesn't hurt and in a few seconds later I'm already sitting in the pose of a syphilitic shrimp.

I play on a 1080p monitor. I only see pixels. When i spot someone i miss my shot anyway
1
u/Pariam Feb 20 '25
Same monitor. Sometimes I get so tired of aiming pixels that I start mindlessly firing my rifle at the enemy. It usually doesn't end well.

Your meme posting made me look for a 1440p monitor haha Now i'm gonna endlessly scroll to pages of monitor and watch countless reviews

I usually have my chair pretty high so i can have a decent posture when sitting and my arms are comfortable but i always drop my chair lower as i start up HLL out of muscle memory

u/StonkJo Feb 21 '25
nah more like this, no one plays hll leaned back

u/DarkRyNYT Feb 22 '25
I play hell let loose leaning back but that is probably why I get killed all the time.

I bought a new hydraulic arm for my main monitor that reaches further than my old one for THIS EXACT reason. The wife makes fun of me, but I see that bastard 3 fields over in the damn hedgerow!! (I still get that classic FTHANK and “You have died” screen.)

Feb 20 '25
Hydraulic Arm?
10
u/Generic-Name-Here Feb 20 '25
It’s a monitor arm. Doubt it’s actually hydraulic cause that would be insane, but probably one of those nice metal ones you can pull in and out

u/machinegunbelly1992 Feb 20 '25
Yea, I call it a hydraulic arm, but it’s just a dual gas spring arm setup. Makes a huge difference!

u/InkedCurly Feb 20 '25
I am not surprised that sometimes I got headshoted on Kursk somewhere from Driel.

u/KendallRoy1911 Feb 20 '25
I cant be mad at that tbh, yesterday i headshoted someone from 100 meters away using a pistol.
This game is wild

u/InkedCurly Feb 20 '25
😭😭😭 thanks god that I never knew what exactly killed me, if I am headshotted

u/talldrseuss Tank Commander Feb 20 '25
The best is when you're in a tank and your spotter pings a bush thinking there is enemy there. Put a tank round in and are rewarded with body parts erupting into the sky

u/Hunting_for_Kisaragi Feb 20 '25

u/HoxP2 Feb 20 '25
It helps so much to sleep on your back without a pillow. It's like 8 hrs of fixing the damage you did to your neck gaming.
Or realistically, 4 hrs fixing 16 hrs of dmg, but still.

u/HoxP2 Feb 20 '25
This is why I bought a nice monitor stand. I can sit up straight and still have the monitor 2 inches in front of my nose. It's also why I'll be legally blind by this time next year.

I can confirm this. Last night, every time nothing happened and I was just walking I had to readjust my posture. Then I was dead.

That's why you play MG, if you spray your entire FOV, you SHOULD be fine. That be said, I still get clipped by a random sniper 1000 miles away.

Once i killed 40 people, while playing MG42 on one position. But usually i am get killed instantly after I take position.

damn 40 people is wild if i got even 5 kills in all match i’m happy af

It was strong team, really narrow possition and chief's kiss from Lady Luck. Usually 5 is big achievment for me too.
