There's essentially no difference between what you did and what I did, you devaluated and insulted TB, I devaluated your videos and insulted you, althought I was, no doubtely, more blunt about it. I was also blunt on my posts, I just heat up when people keep saying the same stuff.
I didn't have to do what I did and should've stayed cool, but I got taken away and already did it. I won't excuse myself for it, but I certainly will try not to do it again.
I already argued with your points, and if you won't change your mind that's up to you, but atleast, try to keep the words such as 'cunt' and such out. I know I'm not the right person to tell you this, but that's one step.
So yup, let's not blow this out of proportions anymore.
[QUOTE=Jackald;36713139]I suppose you're right. I guess it just boils down to me finding him pretentious and arrogant then, but again that's just a personal stance.
Alright, i'll concede that he works hard on his videos, but i still really don't like the guy.[/QUOTE]

Just let it go. You didn't do a good comparison against that. TB does it serious as a job. Jackald just does it for a hobby it seems. Bringing those up as examples of him not doing the same level of work is irrelevant. There is a difference.
Yet again, I've already provided many points defending TB, and myself criticising Jackald was not a fundamental point, and actually picking on it is as irrevelant as the actual post where I did it.
So if you consider yourself better than that, don't resort to nitpicking and keep discussing nicely.
So yeah SMNC is a good game
[QUOTE=Jackald;36713215]I never really tried it out because i'm not much of a fan of the DOTA style of gameplay. Do the FPS elements feed through enough d'ya think?[/QUOTE]
Doesn't really play like a MOBA game at all.
Throw a guy that plays Dota/lol/Hon/whatever into SMNC and they wouldn't know what the hell to do. They would understand the concept, but that is as far as it would go.

I suck ass at MOBAs and don't think Dota is very fun but SMNC is great.
Imma head to bed now that things have cooled down. The internet can get funny sometimes.
Keep sporty lads! Been a pleasure :)
[QUOTE=Jackald;36713251]I guess maybe the buying stuff would put me off. Is it particularly pay to win or is the starting stuff fairly balanced?
By the way, I think technically i'm professional because it's my only source of income at the moment :v: (all $20 i've made so far, woo)[/QUOTE]
There are no purchasable items that affect gameplay balance, there are weekly free pro rotations so you can't play as all of the pros unless you buy them, but even then you can buy them with ingame currency instead of actual money.

You should watch the video in the OP for this thread.
-snip-
you know those bits in films, like where there has been a shelling, and then suddenly it all goes quiet and everyone emerges from their bombed out homes and craters and goes "It's...It's finally over!"
that is this thread
and I love it
I DIDN'T PARTICULARLY ENJOY MNC BUT IF THIS IS MORE LIKE DOTA THEN I'LL GIVE IT A GO AGAIN
I don't know why people watch TB, he put son a fake accent and is a shitposter to boot.

I thought you could buy the perks for really cheap if you used the special currency though.

Oh yeah forgot about those, but those are also purchasable with ingame currency so.

He works hard and makes quality content I just don't think he should be shitting on his subscribers. It's not a judgement really; I don't care what he does with his channel. Just don't think it's the best business move.

His statistics says otherwise.
[QUOTE=Geikkamir;36694776]Isn't the whole point of WTF is... that he's giving first impressions, not a review of the game, though?[/QUOTE]
But often it seems like he talks about things and he has no idea what in the hell he is talking about.
If it were first impressions, he would simply state what he learned, but he oversteps his boundaries and tries to be a smartass.

He usually steps in and says things like "but maybe that changes as you progress in the game, that's the problem with doing first impressions like these".
He complains and criticizes what he can based on what he has experienced and seen. WTF is, isn't about accurately and precisely criticizing all the details about a game and it's mechanics. It's about criticizing what it gives the impression of being in all those kinds of areas. If you want to know for sure then you go read up an actual review or play the game yourself.

I like it. Instead of depending on buildings items and other nerdy shit like that, you focus on dominating ~nerds~ with your sweet TPS skills.

I'd say so, it makes normal fps seem too simple, like even TF2 feels like Deathmatch now

Well I guess my point is you should focus more on bot killing (levels you up), lane pushing, and not dying
Death has weight in this game, since you give the enemy who killed you money (money earned is also XP), you can't push your lane while your dead, so during the respawn time they are farming up your bots getting more XP

having as little deaths as possible>having lots of kills
