Zarya's ult would be absurdly good if it could disable. Sucking in and rooting enemies is an invitation to a team wipe. Fire at will!

They were drat near unstoppable, was absurd. But they were also incredibly coordinated, chaining ults and always moving as a group. Comp was Junkrat, Reinhardt, 2 Lucio's, Soldier and Pharrah.

Crain posted:I he solo queuing? Cause if he's 6 stacking then he'll be more likely to get paired against other 6 stacks (I think). Which would explain why he would be getting teamed with other pros since right now I assume other pros make up most of the 6 stacks. He was 6-stacking, but I have no idea why you would assume only pros 6-stack. In Seagull's first four matches, he faced pro players in three of them. When 6 goons stack, that does not happen. I'm pretty sure MMR did not reset.

But then again I used to occasionally pub medic in TF2 so I am certifiably insane i think lucio is more of a secondary support as opposed to main healer, should be combined with another support (despite his raw healing being amazing, i think i regularly top 9k healing with him) speaking of, how does play of the game get calculated? is it raw points/kills? my team got blackhole'd and i popped sound barrier + amp it up, effectively nullifying 80% of the damage, but play of the game went to some tepid three kill autoshot soldier

Did a quick match this morning before work. We were on defense and the other team kept barely making it past the checkpoints before the time expired. We were at overtime for a full minute just shy of the objective, then I discovered Bastion was a character and we won. Fun times.

Can we have about 10 more pre-made channels setup on the Discord server? I saw 20 people in the LFG channel last night, hopped in and only 1 person (who was already grouped) was talking. If you make/get into a group, move out of the LFG channel.

FAUXTON posted:Check out the card/computer case and see if it is full of dust bunnies. If not, blast it with air anyway because unless you're running HEPA filtration and regularly clean it out there's gonna be dust. With a 760 that's a good amount of time if it's been untouched since installation, and if she's got any kind of pets it's probably all dusted up and unable to cool properly. Fully cleaned out the PC last night, along with a fresh Windows 10 install and yesterday's released drivers from Nvidia. She doesn't see any other graphics glitches, and has a fine time with every other game we play including Oculus games like Eve: Valkyrie. She tried playing on the lowest settings, still sees the problem. Is there a recommended lightweight app to log the GPU temperatures? Otherwise, I'm out of ideas and she's pulling her hair out. This weekend a friend will be bringing up his extra 760 to try out for her, if it's the GPU malfunctioning. Otherwise I get a 1080 once they're actually available and she'll get the 780 currently in my dev machine. We were really hoping it would be resolved by release, but if anything it's gotten worse: It used to hard-lock and crash the game, but she could try and get back in and sometimes manage. Now it hardlocks her for long enough where she never makes it back in, and sometimes restarts the PC. Atoramos fucked around with this message at 15:49 on May 24, 2016 |

No guys, we can't let D.va shoot and move at the same time, that would make her an actual flanker. Blizzard prefers her to be a useless ball of HP that occasionally gets kills when someone from the front line is running back to get a Health Pack and all their abilities are on cool down and they're not paying attention and it's their first game ever and they're four years old.

E: /\ try playing Dva like you'd play Reaper or maybe a flanky McCree, it's fun as hell if you are willing to take the risk in getting up to point blank range because her damage really ramps up. It's good enough to be able to boost into the air at a flying pharah and kill her as you're falling past her.Atoramos posted:Fully cleaned out the PC last night, along with a fresh Windows 10 install and yesterday's released drivers from Nvidia.

I think stuff like Rainmeter is good for that but a) I haven't used it in more than 10 years and b) I'm not sure about logging, just real time monitoring. However, if i doesn't glitch out while running stuff on the Rift then it almost certainly can't be heat since I'm almost positive OW is less intensive than Rift stuff by a substantial margin, not to mention OW is insanely well optimized (I was running it on my old starcraft 2-era machine with a solid 60+ fps albeit with low settings) for not-so-new hardware. I don't know offhand how to roll back a graphics driver install with the Geforce Experience software they use now but I'd give that a whirl, with a few other people seeing issues under the new drivers that might be it.

I realized why McCree is so fail - he's the only cahracter in the game without any mobility abilties or self heals so to make up for it he has an instant 1v1 fight win button combo. He is a fraud, and his belt buckle is probably the worst art direction choice in the game. I have no respect for him

If you're playing Mei start timing your walls so you let one person slip through before blocking the path; it's always hilarious seeing someone try to backpedal only to hit The Wall and die horribly when your team opens on them. This goes double for any Reinhardt/Hog Mercy combo. Isolate the tank from the healer and go to town.

When a round "clicks", this is the most fun I have had in a game in a long, long time. When you're getting clowned by other, better players and in addition your team is borderline incapable, it's the most rage-inducing experience ever. Holy poo poo, I'm afraid I am going to pop a vessel today. mcbexx fucked around with this message at 11:01 on Jul 19, 2022 |
