I'm legit upset that I'm starting to get pithy and dismissive again but that's exactly what discourse on this loving website drives you to do because you either try to maintain the high ground and get annoyed whenever some shitposter casually dismisses everything you say or you get dragged down to their level. Like, you're the one who decided to try and engage me with shitass sarcasm so really I don't see how you have any room to accuse me of being condescending.

it would be good if you did not post, ideally ever again

In the right hands a Zen can discord orb and cut someone down pretty quick.

disc. orb is legitimately busted and unfun to play against and if they make that champ not die to one widow bodyshot and he springs up in every game it will be a dire day for meatboys everywhere

Buff discord orb so the whole team can see its marker through walls instead of just the Zenyatta who threw it.

things that subconsciously get bad players to cooperate like this and overtime are some of the most dangerous mechanics u can tweak in a game like this

I am trying to keep my fellow SA posters at their (unstated) word because it's the polite thing to do but I've met far too many people who are like "oh [character] is my "waifu" ahahahahahahahh just kidding for real though do you want to see my porn folder I have hundreds of pictures."

really. how many. how many people have you met that have done this. how do you meet them.

I am still waiting on good + memorable maps from this game. the badlands / gold rush. there are some with potential but something, maybe the indoor/outdoor balance, and weird basically useless areas, is not right.

support classes are straight up the worst thing to be added to FPSs bc there is now a legion of ppl who cannot click a head or otherwise score a frag actively participating in games where they would have been a glowing medkit 10 years ago

Yeah, gently caress all these various roles and functions in a team. If you can't left click heads, you should kill yourself.

let's not get crazy here, even some of those who can left click heads should consider killing themselves

If both teams are full of people like that then the one with healing and resurrections is pretty obviously going to do better?

(Also players who are 50+ are pretty well past the "how do I play this game" phase, even if Dota goon cynicism prevents admitting that)

the guy we're talking about is 30, the rank which I imagine people who accidentally opened this game up on best buy display model tablets are assigned. having one more guy open palm slamming his keyboard and being able to deal damage is going to be way better than standing there watching a hanzo arrow out cartoon silhouettes of people's models

Look at the post I was responding to tho.

tbh it probably does still hold true into the 50's. I am too far removed from such animals to truly be sure

ImpAtom posted:

Someone who is bad but not completely inept at the game benefits from having a safety net they would not have without a healer. Many times having a few extra HP or a boost to damage can be the difference between "average player dies" and "average player survives."

so you can roll the dice that few extra HP being the determining factor or take your mediocre white dick and balls in hand and try to affect the FPS game directly, by shooting players and standing on objectives. but hey, this is just one incredibly skilled gamer's opinion

You guys do realize basically every "pro" Overwatch player probably has more time than this into the game since release? It doesn't give you xp for Custom Matches, so a lot of those guys are playing 6+ hours a day and they never gain a level.

the thing is that people do that while still being very bad at the game and not profiting from it in any way. we call those people 'goons'
