Overwatch - It's Actually a Trick To Make Everyone Play HotS, also BUY - Games

I lost a game tonight because i had two mandarin speaking people who wouldn't switch off dps. They were trash but w/e. I got the biggest compliment ever tho, i was playing soldier and some dude told me to turn off the hacks! I said "thanks mate" but apparently it was a genuine accusation. It's made my fucking night!

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;52324033]Okay. It isn't good long-term content to keep the game alive.[/QUOTE] No one said it wasnt?

But the real question is: Are people content with the content? Yes? No? Loot boxes?

[QUOTE=E.C.S;52324124]But the real question is: Are people content with the content? Yes? No? Loot boxes?[/QUOTE] They just need to learn balancing in terms of content. I guarantee you if they updated base game lootbox items as often as they added event locked items no one would really be complaining about the event locked items.

I don't have a problem with the events seeing as there's always at least something new added gameplay-wise, but it's pretty amazing how far we've come when a decade ago Oblivion's horse armor was universally criticized, and yet now paying almost the same amount for [I]slight chance[/I] at getting a decent cosmetic is accepted by the industry as standard practice. Muselk spent $200 on Anniversary crates and didn't even get half of the new items, and I think that says a lot about how the crate system is designed to simply gouge out as much money as possible. Matters become worse when these items are three times the price of normal items, pay out the same amount for duplicates, and are time-restricted for when you can get them.

I at least wish you could 1:1 trade items with other players. Limit it to one at a time, and the two items have to be the same rarity, IE legendary for legendary or epic for epic.

I would just be content with being able to turn them into credits.

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;52323942]Cosmetics isn't really content. You can't "play" cosmetics. It doesn't introduce new strategies or gameplay.[/QUOTE] Let's see your urban-dictionary-ass definition of 'content'.

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;52324033]Okay. It isn't good long-term content to keep the game alive.[/QUOTE] Maybe not to you, but then that's also your opinion. Whenever anything gets added for Mercy I jump right on that shit. I've still not had enough of the dance emote. :joy:

gold versions of existing skins tournament rewards ranked play rewards

[QUOTE=Cronos Dage;52324399]gold versions of existing skins tournament rewards ranked play rewards[/QUOTE] pretty sure jeff said there are gonna be no other skin rewards because they don't want to make people play competitive only for skins

Jeff just recently said he wished they had never added the competitive skins in the first place. So no, I doubt they're going to add more competitive rewards. [editline]7th June 2017[/editline] ninja'd

When does the Blizzcon virtual ticket usually go up for sale?

[QUOTE=GentlemanLexi;52324800]pretty sure jeff said there are gonna be no other skin rewards because they don't want to make people play competitive only for skins[/QUOTE] Read: they don't want to give away stuff that is not locked behind random rolls. Imagine the desperation at Blizzard when they realized they could have milked a few more pennies out of retards by making golden weapon purchasable for a limited time for 5000 coins instead of things you can buy whenever as long as you work for them. Ah, a reward for playing the game instead of dropping fifty bucks on crates! The horror! The horror!

God damn it, I'm trying to test out my reticles for each individual hero on settings. Everytime I try to do so, though, I get kicked for inactivity. This is in the [B]practice range[/B] mode, mind you. They fucking kick you for being idle in a [B]practice range[/B]

~500mb update to PTR

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;52324955]did they intend to make lucio look feminine? it looks like he's wearing a skirt, has thicc thighs, and most of the time he's going to be rubbing his hips to play music[/QUOTE] Since when wearing a skirt was feminine? Kilts were a thing, you know.

[QUOTE=Gentleman Cat;52324981]Since when wearing a skirt was feminine? Kilts were a thing, you know.[/QUOTE] Kilts are not skirts.

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;52324955]did they intend to make lucio look feminine? it looks like he's wearing a skirt, has thicc thighs, and most of the time he's going to be rubbing his hips to play music[/QUOTE] It looks more like when you equip armor leggings with no chestpiece. Which is kinda literally the case here, no? The puffy leg things are similar to hanzo's wolf skins too speaking of lucio, I keep finding him in the sky. someone please tell him thats dangerous [t]http://i.imgur.com/ll9OkaG.jpg[/t] taking a moment to watch a body ragdoll into space is one of the best things in overwatch

Now why don't they just run it locally like any reasonable dev? Because blizzard is terrified of anybody else hosting anything locally ever for some reason

[QUOTE=Grandzeit;52323578]You could've saved $20 on it until like 2 days ago, actually. I do recommend picking it up next sale at least.[/QUOTE] Perhaps I'm spoiled by the steam sales/humble bundles but I still found it quite pricey. Can't expect cheap from a blizzard game though. WoW is "f2p" up to level 20. WHAT A DEAL!!! :zoid:

I don't know what is happening with the servers in South America but during this whole event the servers has been doing terrible sometimes getting +200 of ping. I couldn't play today due things sometimes not happening making hard to react. I guess if I buy more loot boxes Blizzard will be able to finally afford a good server.

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;52321489]Don't make it like most games with challenges where it actually hinders your ability to play and therefor hinders your team's ability to play. "Fuck off guys I need to do this daily challenge where I get 10 fatal headshots as widowmaker, i don't care if we're on offense and we don't have a tank"[/QUOTE] Maybe the quest should be "win a game with suggested hero" and give each match a hero choice recommendation that adjusts with your team comp or something?

Plus the way Hammer dances his hands are usually right by the hips. I think it'd look cool if he danced like that while scratching the vinyls. [editline]7th June 2017[/editline] The text says "Equalizer pants" which I think they're talking about basketball shorts, which can be pretty baggy sometimes. Just looked like Hammer's signature pants because you can't see that they cutoff.

Decided to compile some gameplay clips for fun, mostly just trying to figure out the best recording method for later [video=youtube;K-e9YBFjr7w]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-e9YBFjr7w[/video] RIP that Lucio's face [editline]8th June 2017[/editline] I've always loved playing risky hyper-DPS builds in RPGs, and so far this guy feels every bit as satisfying when you get the perfect setup. There's nothing quite like seeing everything in front of you just melt.
