I'm not a huge crucible player, nor the greatest but I do ok. I for the most part manage to be in the top 3 and almost always over a 1.2 kd...not great, but not terrible. My stats look kinda skewed because I let my girl play some matches too....I'm not in this for stats, so I don't care lol.
Someone mentioned to me that playing on my big screen TV makes do a lot worse without even realizing it. Is this true that it makes THAT MUCH of a difference, or if someone really good, they'll be really good on whatever display they use?
It's not that important, I have no plans on ever playing on a -blam!-ing monitor lol...I thoroughly enjoy playing in the comfort of my living room.

I have similar stats but I've never noticed a difference on changing screen sizes... I actually prefer a larger screen just so any moving targets catches my eye faster vs a monitor... Gotta try a projector if you have a room dark enough... It's awesome... =)
-
It's probably frame delay. I have a TV at my dad's house and the movements show on the screen a tad bit later than they should which demolishes my stats in pvp. But at my mom's house everything is perfect. I recently bought a new TV to fit in my room and still fine so my point is your experience depends on the TV/Monitor
-
A proper size gaming tv should be abuut 32 inches. Any bigger and you start potentially creating lag, not to mention eye strain, and neck strain. It's too big to get a full focus.

Edited by jhowle9475: 1/4/2016 7:23:10 PMI have my PS4 connected to my PC'S 24" gaming monitor and I sit comfortably at my desk. I tried a few times on 60" sitting cross the room but I way over compensated on my aiming. I find playing crucible on a smaller screen makes quick aiming easier.
-
Watch out for that guy in the corner. which corner? /cranes neck /gets killed You got the wrong corner, should have looked down.
-
Gaming monitor is the best imo. You might get input lag.
-
Depends on screen lag, input lag and whether you sit too close that the edges of the screen don't show in your peripheral vision. I do worse on a big screen mostly because I'm not used to it, but if I was playing from a couch from far enough away, I could see it being more useful at finding snipers/people to snipe. I usually stick to a 23" screen for the right distance to detail ratio when sitting in front of the screen.
-
I'd say yes . MLG plays on 32 approx for a reason

Edited by sergantsnipes05: 1/4/2016 5:31:29 AMI notice a rather large difference when going from 65in tv to a gaming monitor. Response time is night and day. If you really want to be competitive play on a monitor. Even tv's in game mode can't hope to compete. Like at all
-
Strong bragging...you compensating for something?
-
Edited by Devasstator: 1/4/2016 4:22:22 AMI have had zero difference in playing on a 55 or a 75. Depends on the TV features though. Game mode reduces the lag between the signal and the picture processing and I always run in game mode. Also anyone who says they have played worse in larger screen now then before on a smaller isn't taking into account all the variables like patches, updates and meta changes, so it's not a simple black and white unless they are just looking for something to blame.
-
Larger screens = higher input lag Larger screens = more area to focus on I can look at my radar on a small screen from my peripherals but on a bigger screen I have to glance, milliseconds matter no matter what this forum says.
-
i do best on 26 to 32 inch screens. anything over 35 inch will lower my kd. im currently playing on a 46 and play like garbage lol.
-
It's not the tv, it's cause you are human (I hope). It's about the square inch the bigger you screen the more your eyes have to scan to absorb all the information. The scan adds time to your reflex action or muscle memory. On smaller screen your eyes can focus on single point/smaller area and relay all relevant info to be processed, no scanning quicker response or reflex action (muscle memory).
-
When you play pvp at a slightly higher level it begins to become more relevant. I'm not going to pretend I'm that good but when I play good players the margin for error decreases rapidly. So having a clearer picture that you can process begins to make a difference to that. Things like recovering your cross hairs, quick aiming etc will improve on a screen with less input lag. I just play on my old 52 inch plasma which tbh is terrible for shooters but there's a marked difference when I see the same game on monitors. Basically, they give you the opportunity to react faster but it doesn't necessarily mean that you will.
-
The input lag would probably suck.
-
Over the summer I played on a monitor and brought my kd up to 1.7. After moving back home to my 72 inch my kd has dropped back to 1.2 :(
-
I play on a 106" projector screen and the only problem i fave is focusing on the whole screen and everything happening in it.
-
In rare cases yes
-
Yes. The bigger the screen the more input delay you have. When you're on a bigger screen you can move your controller but your character will register this late, causing delay in movement and game actions. Playing on a smaller screen with serve you well. I play on a 60 in screen and I know that it's not as good as a monitor. I'm used to the input delay but it's still there and it will hinder me.
-
Any difference between screen sizes is your own lack of skill
-
Just put your TV setting on game mode it will still be harder than if you had a smaller monitor but it help eith your delay.
-
There's video lag, the fact you actually have to move your head. Other than that it's an even playing field
-
If you play on a 24 inch screen you can see everything without moving your eyes left and right. On a 70 inch screen, you literally have to look left to see your radar and them move your eyes back right to your crosshairs. That half second doesn't seem like a big handicap but it's there. I think there's also a technical argument about video lag on screen with a TV so big
-
It makes a difference but not enough to impact your skill positively or negatively
-
Your eyes can focus more clearly on the game when you use a smaller screen
