    Think if I sold them separate, I might actually be able to sell them for a low price and still make a better profit than selling them as a bundle.

    I know for a fact that if I sold the parts on their own I could make one hell of a much bigger profit. The problem is just getting people to believe it's unused. I might have to buy one and open it just to see. But it is pretty crazy, the mouse online is sold for $30 on the low end, the keyboard is $50, mousmat is $15, and the headset could be sold for like $25 and I'd still be making a $70 profit and those are still under what they are worth individually.

    While I am not the best player, I do have over a 2 K/D in ranked and I can tell you that this game is 100% easier when you perfect 3 things: map knowledge, peekers advantage, and sound. Map knowledge is essential in this game. You must learn the rooms and hatches in and out. You see or hear a guy on those basement stairs? Go blow the hatch that is behind his back so that you now have the upper hand because he is trying to figure out whether or not you will drop through the hatch or come back to the stairs. Simple but extremely effective. Also, drone, drone, drone. That is a huge difference between a modest player, and a patient skilled player. If you cannot confidently tell yourself "this room is clear," then get on that drone and find out. But once you learn the maps a bit more you will get more of a sense as to whether or not that room will be clear based upon its proximity near the objective. Roamers are players that "roam" far away from the objective, so even when you can tell yourself that the room is clear it is still important to turn the corner with your sights up and check corners. This brings me to my next point: peekers advantage. Peekers advantage is probably the single most frustrating thing about this game, until you learn how to use it to your advantage. Basically the simple way to explain it is that everyone has a different latency and therefore when you turn a corner, there will be a small period of time (we are talking milliseconds) where you will see the person on your screen, but they can't see you. Take advantage of this if you know someone is around the corner. Strafe in small bursts and pop off shots at your enemy before he notices, once he does, he will retaliate so give it a few seconds or move to a different doorway and try again. ALWAYS keep your crosshairs at head level, if you do not learn to shoot for the head, you will never succeed. 1 shot headshots are essential to win consistently in gun fights. Look up a video on peekers advantage to get a better idea of what I'm saying. Lastly, sound. Invest in a good pair of headphones because the sound in this game will save your life and give you more situational awareness. Sound in this game is weird compared to other games because it does not travel through walls. Basically, sound in this game will travel through the shortest path to reach you. So if a guy is directly on the other side of the wall from you, the footsteps and sounds he is making will actually either come to the left or the right door next to you, depending on which path is closer to him and you. Sound however does travel through vertical floors. So if someone is standing directly above you, you will hear his footsteps above you. Sound in this game is very helpful because even just an enemy reloading or walking around is easily heard and can let you know someone is in the room next to you. Anyways, my username on Uplay is Flesh.O and I get on just about everyday. I would be happy to show you a few pointers and things to help you improve in the game. But even to this day, I still have times where I get spanked. But you watch the kill cam and assess what you could've done differently for next time. Happy playing!

    Yeah, I decided to take the high road and keep it after I played a few games with it. It's not for me, but I figure I can knock off $10 and resell to someone on reddit or here and tell them the thing is practically brand new.

    Well considering I've paid for prime for years now and bought hundreds of things and returned maybe 2? I would say they would be silly to do so. I get what you are saying, but I think that is for people who are literally never satisfied with a product.

    Rainbow Six Siege is quite simply the most addictive FPS that I have played since COD MW2 Search and Destroy. In R6S, no 2 rounds ever play the same which allows each map to maintain its freshness for a much longer period of time than any other game. I can definitely recommend this game if you are into the whole tactical 1 life per round type of game.

    I'd rather buy the new architecture now since the 4790k is the older generation, however from first impressions of Kaby lake, it doesn't look like anything significant. Also, I'm sort of under the impression that your system is a bit more balanced. As I am right now, I'm getting some terrible frametime fluctuations due to my house being significantly faster than what my CPU can handle in a lot of games. Witcher 3 and bf4 have become unplayable for me unfortunately, no matter how much DSR.

    Thelillypad123 got a reaction from ygohome in 30 fps console vs 30 fps pc   
    This is something that has always had me curious. So obviously the graphics are much superior on PC, let's get that straight. But I have noticed that if I were to cap my frame rate on PC at 30 fps, it would look a hell of a lot choppier than 30 fps on a console version of that game. Is this because of motion blur uses on console and other foolery? I don't think I'm crazy because I can definitely tell the difference between 30, 60, 120, and 144 fps. But to me 30 fps on PC is atrocious while on console it is much more palatable. Can anyone give me a real explanation and does anyone agree?

    I know how you feel. I graduated this year and my parents bought me a dell xps 13 as my present. It is a top of the line model and although I am extremely grateful for their generosity, I always feel incredibly guilty using it at all. I talked to both of my parents about it because it was way too much guilt for me to handle, I talked about returning it and putting it in a college fund for my little brother but they assured me that I should keep it and me doing well in college and making a life for myself is enough for them. All your parents want from us is to be successful, be ethical, hard-working and never succeed off of others misfortune. Take care of your parents when they can't themselves. At the end of the day money means nothing, love is everything.
