    ---------------
    Ah, yes, the bottom of the description. I still don't know how many of you read this, presumably not a lot. But some of you do - neat!
    Most of my thoughts on this video are summarized in the postmortem, so you should read that for more behind-the-scenes stuff. This video was supposed to be short, but instead it ended up being a large project!
    StarCraft is next.

    I wonder how the graph changes if you were to consider things like fire rate, because an awp duel is won by the first to hit, but since it takes so long for the second shot to fire, it's almost guaranteed you'll lose, but when you have something like the ak from cs, you can miss the first shot, but if you manage to shoot another before your opponent you'll win while being less accurate than 100%, iunno if what i said makes much sense, or i didn't pay enough attention to the video :P

    @Riokaii 9 місяців тому +2

    Accuracy is likely not linear, at the absolute fastest, there is likely a "floor" of accuracy around 30-50%, and then an asymptote of accuracy where spending additional time quickly reaches 80-95% range, but adding that same time again only goes from 95% to 98%, because its not possible to have over 100% accuracy, and likely never possible to truly have 100% accuracy, particularly against a moving intelligent target.

      We live in the 3D. When it comes to 3D shooting. Not a lot of things are linear, and our movements have depth. I believe that through superior positioning, we can overcome a shootout.

  • @selassieaspen9940
    @selassieaspen9940 23 дні тому

    I had this theory. It is what I used for creating my book when it comes to action scenes. I use position as the ultimate factor in deciding the fight. Despite someone skillsets. When it comes to my protagonist, he's one to take an advantageous position every time. He uses accuracy and superior positioning combined to best his foes. In shooting games, it's sometimes best to get a better angle when shooting, instead of just alerting and missing your shots and running after the guy who knows now where and who is shooting at him. Which will end up with him killing you just by you running into his area.

    Though it is best to know *how* aggressive you need to be whether it's with a teammate or going in solo. It's just one of those things you start thinking about after playing any game over time.

    Lovely video! If you ever find yourself considering a companion follow-up to this video someday, I'd be interested to see some asymmetrical analyses using your formula though-specifically, I wonder if you could work in, say, an Awp/Op's ability to kill from a body shot by increasing W, and seeing if the final conclusions drawn are different if you're sniping vs. an AK (or equivalent).

    I've never really thought about aiming in a game theory context, but it's a great idea. It would be cool to see if anything else interesting comes up if you give one person an advantage over another, like a head start in terms of distance and/or time to move their crosshair

    Now the next question is. What happens to the table when you factor in shots that aren't going to kill instantly? You could probably make an even more complex formula for that if you make it modular enough to calculate with different weapon accuracy, firerate, and damage values in mind.

    It would be interesting to ask the inverse question. "How often should I be shooting first?"
    Both first bullet accuracy, and first shot frequency are the easiest metrics to use to determine shot quality.
    Your video does a great job at answering the first question, but for the second question, I'd assume you'd need some data to determine the first shot speed at various ratings.

    The absolutely most important thing you overlooked is that enemies will not stand still.
    When I used to be one of the bets snipers in a niche game you never heard of that went and died in microtransaction hell ...(yeap) I sniped by basically drawing a line from my current crossair position, far past the enemy, where the line would just go across the enemy head. And I would 'aim' by just shooting at the right time.
    If instead you tried to actually aim for your opponent, they could just dodge and now you have to reaim, or they could move unpredictably and you wont be able to even keep your crosshair on them. A good example I have from the same game, one time I was stuck with a shotgun that had to reload against one of the other best players at about 3m distance. I dodged his entire assault rifle magazin (~6 seconds). (He still killed me even after I could finally reload 🥲)
    So what im saying is the best 'aim' is to eliminate as many variables as possible. To do that you have to be VERY fast.

  • @alexwang4383
    @alexwang4383 9 місяців тому

    Good video, very well executed and acknowledge your disclaimers. But, as a layman, I think its not quite right. I think this would only apply to semi-automatic weapons (seemingly implied in video too). Mostly tactical shooters revolve around automatic rifle vs rifle. This means that there is no “delay” between shots, ie if I an faster, i can miss the first shot in exchange for recovering for 2nd or 3rd shot. Realistically, there is still delay due to weapon RPM, but there is not as many discrete outcomes as this video suggests (rather continuous). I think this makes the issue a little more complicated, even if generally the finding stand. This is further challenged when considering body shots/no one shot headshots such as the classic M4A4 vs AK47 duel. In that case the AK probably wants accuracy to hit a one tap whereas the M4 wants speed to land 3 body shots as soon as possible. Again this is a nitpick but for counter strike at least, AK vs M4 is by far the most common fight. Anyway, still a great video, and very well executed

    Isn't there a problem with the geometric model. It assumes that both players would shoot the same amount in a given set of trials. But the faster shooter would actually get more shots off in a given amount of time. This lowers the expected value of faster shooting
