They can solve stream sniping with a five second delay or whatever. Live TV has this and nobody gets hurt. There is pretty much no scenario where a delay would hurt anyone. It might not stop SS but it makes it less effective. In casual play streamers have already figured this out.

poo poo that was guy was RIGHT HERE 5 seconds ago.... where the hell is he now??

any delay significant enough to stop stream sniping also makes the stream itself essentially a video and boring. live interaction makes streaming interesting

Yes, but the streamers aren't live interacting during the tournament. They're just trying to win, you know, for the money. In fact, I'm pretty sure they're not allowed to live interact, because anyone watching the ESL stream could feed them info via Twitch chat.

gently caress I see people and can't find them 20 seconds later, much less 5 minutes. If you have even a minor delay and still getting stream sniped you probably suck.

OK, so the black mini skirt is currently 250 CAD on the market place and I happen to have one to sell. Should I sell now or wait for a few weeks? Because we know new crates won't come for a while, maybe not before the game is released, or at least the next major tournament, if that happens before 2018. That's a hell of a lot of money for a digital skirt.

This is with the knowledge that the skirt was around 150 a week or so ago.

That's like saying you have a bunch of IBM stock and are asking if you should sell now or wait. We can't know dude, but if I knew I could get $250 for a dumb game item I'd just do it and not wrack my brain over maximum profit. You don't look back on the history of apple stock and fault yourself for not timing the market perfectly and 100000% increasing your money or whatever, you won't sweat the dollars you miss out on for not perfectly predicting the black skirt market.

I'm pretty sure people who sold apple stock are kicking themselves if it could have made them super rich.

They're foolish - anyone can go back in time and find a stock that went up like crazy and kick themselves for not buying it but it doesn't mean anything if you can't, you know, predict which stock that is. But fair enough.

Finally bought this game a couple days ago, and in my third game with some friends I get those Clay Fighter-esque low-poly buildings.
When the full-poly models loaded in, so did a shelving unit. Right on top of me. So I got stuck inside.

Do you believe those hotpants are gonna hold value? You are holding on to the first generation iPod Nanos of video games. A better pair will come out and the amount of people with enough crazy brains and cash to pay 250$ is finite.

But the gambler in me is saying "Let it RIDE"

This is pretty much my thinking about it. The instant they announce the next pack and it has some silly chase thing in it the current popular silly things will probably crash a bit

Lots off whales out there. You can make a living playing Destiny for other people. They will spend 1000$ dollars in a month so that they can get the latest raid gear.

Anyone else hoping that they start going crazy with weapons and items?

Like bear traps, poison you can inject into consumables, grenade launchers, remotely triggered c4, explosive rounds/bolts, shotgun slugs. Maybe one of those suits of bomb disposal armor? All that kind of stuff.

I've used the mk14 a few times now and yeah, it's cool but at the end of the day it's a sks with better stats.

The big difference is that its 1HK on level 1 helmets, unfortunately, they're not super popular by the time you can get a crate.

That's kind of exactly the issue, the only crate item with neato gameplay changes is the ghille suit. I would love for more "this changes my playstyle" items rather than "numerically superior" items

If you always think like this instead of being happy with the profit you made you'll go insane. You could have always bought lower and sold higher. Just ask yourself what price is good enough for you to be happy- then sell there.

I don't really want wacky guns or anything but different random disasters would be cool, like the plane dropping lanes of napalm or something along those lines. Tornadoes, tsunamis (ride the crest of a tsunami on the boat 50m into the shoreline), or hell, solar eclipses. Having the entire map go into "day for night" night mode for a very brief amount of time sounds fun.
