What was the word on gamescon crates after the tournament is over? Usable or dead?

It's cool that they are using players streams (I think?) but they need to put some names on the screen because how the gently caress am I supposed to know who anyone is?

i mean, you'll definitely be able to use keys to open the crates. the only issue is if they will continue to sell keys after the box is no longer for sale or if the keys will entirely be player-bought stock.

They've said they plan to do more paid crate batches so there's no reason for them to stop selling keys.

The keys are labeled Gamescom Invitational, specifically, so that's a wrinkle. And yeah, I can't imagine them saying no to more money either.

Nothing about a game that relies on such random mechanics will ever be an esport, I have no idea why they thought it would

the keys are crate-specific. obviously they'll still sells 'keys', but who knows if they'll continue selling 'gamescom invitational keys' once the crate it opens isn't up for sale any more

The camera guy is complete shite and is killing what could be a fun stream to watch. Fart Car '97 posted:Nothing about a game that relies on such random mechanics will ever be an esport, I have no idea why they thought it would What do you mean by random mechanics? If you mean the loot RNG it's kind of moot. Yes it's randomized but they're everywhere and you have all the guns you need in seconds.

A 50S RAYGUN posted:'what random mechanics'? do you even play this game? You're just a cranky gus aren't you? Maybe step outside and enjoy life for a while. First I didn't say 'what random mechanics' as if I'm denying there's anything random about the game. Second, the phrase random mechanics is quite vague so rather than assume I know exactly what he's saying and calling him stupid like you might do I figured I would ask what he meant. Is it the loot RNG? Is it the planes path? Is it vehicle placement? All of it together? Is he trying to make a comment on hitboxes or other issues with the game? Since most people talk about loot I took an educated guess and commented on that.

OO There's an extreme fight over there! Look at these two players, master of their craft, duking it out on the razor's edge! Not sure why we're watching this guy in a warehouse, can we get a camera on those two? Oh they died. [repeat x6]

Maybe step outside and enjoy life for a while. i mean, it's all of those things in combination. from drop to game end the entire point of the game is mitigating various circumstances entirely beyond your control. it's not unenjoyable and it's not even a terrible spectator sport, but it is nothing at all like well-balanced.

lmao at the esports grips newsflash nerds, the only thing an esport needs to be successful is a big playerbase, period. people watched loving wow pvp when it wasn't a dead game yet.

RNG loot spawn, circles. E-sports succeed because people like supporting specific players. It's going to be hard to convince people to invest their time into watching the game when A) The core aspects of winning aren't really exciting and B) A ton of players are going to get knocked out randomly due to sheer dumb luck of bad loot or being forced into poo poo positioning because of bad luck with circles.

probably important to note that nobody will ever, ever, ever care about solo and if this esporst is destined to survive past this week it will be as squad teams only

I don't get why people knock going into the top ten with an UMP. Unless your top ten is like in one of the first three circles you are not going to need that much range anyway. My one and only solo chicken dinner was with a silenced UMP. I didn't get an AR until top 3 and then I just used it to blow up a UAZ.
