Battlefield 1 is coming sometime soon but I can't get too excited at the prospect of crawling through mud shooting a bolt action winchester

That's cool because there aren't any bolt-action Winchesters in BF1. There's a semi-auto and level action Winchester tho.

I bought overwatch, and $40 is a bit steep. There was about 3 maps i nthe rotations. And like, I get it. A billion characters whhhooOOaaAAA!! But come on. Also I only played about an hour of matches, got sextuple kills in one without dying (according to robot voice lady), and no one unanimously voted me the best ( I had 1-2 votes each time, but I assume the server does that because games are for millennials now) or gave me the sweet "sit here and watch a guy shoot for a bit" cam at the end. Korean meme warrior didn't even have any girl group skins. What the hell is that about?!

I'm pretty sure Overwatch is not great.

There are more than three maps.

Levels 1- 20 in matchmaking mean everyone is noobs who don't know what they're doing.

Voting is dumb and nobody votes for the enemy.

The word "millennial" used unironically.

I get there's more maps than that, but it just kinda sucks that the thing gave the same few so many times in a row. I had no idea about the level grouping thing though.

edit: unless I'm completely misunderstanding that, and I just also happened to get group with other new people. I didn't even pay attention to what anyone was at. Either way. That's what I get for trying to make a joke in gbs

Yeah sometimes you keep getting placed in the same maps again and again. You have a player level and the game tries to match you with similar levels. It's mostly a measure of how long you've been playing instead of skill but at lower levels it's basically the same thing. Also no jokes allowed in GBS for workgroups we try to keep things professional here

Try to stay in your quickplay group for a long as possible. You get :siren:BONUS XP:siren: for consecutive matches and see the same maps less. Less Hanamura is better.

Also theres an XP bonus for being the guy who joins a match after someone else ragequits which is funny.

Overwatch's memes are all poo poo tier anyway. Like Diva has a skin where here robot has "wr3kd" on the back. Like Blizzard was obviously trying to say "#REKT" but were too retarded to pull it off. They should hire me to be the meme consultant for future Overwatch content.

you forget that Meme is/was an actual word with actual definition - An element or behavior in a culture that spreads from one individual to the next

Metal Gear Solid tried to use this word in the unironic sense

Now, listen - I know the two of you are very different from each other in a lot of ways, but you have to understand that as far as Grandpa's concerned, you're both pieces of shit! Yeah. I can prove it mathematically.

i'm amazed dva isn't worse than she is. on paper, an asian gamer girl whose catchphrases are "time to raise my apm" and "nerf this", and who rides around in a giant mecha sounds like such a terrible, inauthentic idea that it would make me embarrassed for all nerds everywhere just by existing. but i'm actually totally ok with picking dva and shooting mans.

She's in a game with loving Tracer in it and you say she's the worst?

And even then, Tracer's only the second worst video game character ever.
