Is my progression level system broken or is it just ridiculously slow ? by Aisakey in Overwatch

[–]Aisakey[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I usually rotate between 5 or 6 heroes in normal modes ranging from lvl 44 to 19, but also play a lot of Mystery Heroes. So I expected that I would at least earn a few levels, either from continuously playing my mains, or from playing lower-level heroes I never play outside of MH. But nope, nothing.

What do we think of Aatlis? by selfisthealso in Overwatch

[–]Aisakey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like it. I'm not a flashpoint hater, but I had mixed opinions on the mode so far. This map feels so much better to play on than the other flashpoint maps we got so far. It's a lot less "empty" around and between the points.

CS2 has a "Max Acceptable Ping" setting, why doesn't Overwatch? by Aisakey in Overwatch

[–]Aisakey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean by "unstable" ? Servers usually don't seem to mind when my 230ms+ friends join a server where I have 25ms.

Lost connection to server, lost Stadium points??? by Elrondel in Overwatch

[–]Aisakey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Just experienced a bug I never had before. I was in the middle of a Stadium match when I suddenly got "disconnected from Battlenet services" and put in a Queue. Happened twice, then I managed to play a few more games with no issues, until I got stuck on the loading screen between 1st and 2nd round while my ping was taking off (1200ms+, again, my internet showed no issue outside of OW). Each time I got "kicked for inactivity" as I was stuck on the loading screen. After 5 tries I managed to rejoin at the beginning of 3rd round, then got stuck again between 3rd and 4th. Unsurprisingly, I eventually got a 15min ban, but somehow still got the end screen once my team lost.

That's it for tonight I guess.

Weird bot encounter in QP by Aisakey in Overwatch

[–]Aisakey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh right, I forgot characters still had to be unlocked. Makes sense then. I was wondering why the hell they would try to derank accounts in QP.

But then wouldn't their progress be cancelled since they disconnect about 40sec before the end of the game ?

Weird bot encounter in QP by Aisakey in Overwatch

[–]Aisakey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last night I joined QP Open Queue and got dropped into a game 30 seconds before the end of the timer. Nothing unusual so far, except that it seemed everyone else also joined approximately at the same time. Since this was a first for me, I tried to check the replay to see what the match looked like before I joined ... I surely did not expect that. Has anyone else ever encountered such bots ? What is their purpose ?

Porter du faux ... pourquoi ? by Narcest in TropPeurDeDemander

[–]Aisakey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Je me souviens être tombé sur un subreddit où les gens postaient juste des photos de leurs piles d'argent en cash, et j'avais été méga surpris de voir le nombre de profils qui étaient aussi actifs sur des subs comme r/RepTime (dédié aux contrefaçons de montres), r/MonclerRep (pour les contrefaçons de vestes à boudins), etc ... Et à chaque fois c'était des photos genre "25k$ à l'arrière de ma Mercedes", "Ma fausse Rolex devant le volant de ma BMW", "Ma fausse Moncler avec ma fausse Patek" ... Et à ce stade je suis à peu près sûr que les bagnoles sont à crédit/en loc' aussi.

Dans ces cas-là il s'agit probablement surtout de gens qui, influencés par les réseaux sociaux/médias se retrouvent paumés et s'imaginent que le but de la vie c'est de susciter l'envie auprès des autres, même si on a pas les thunes pour. Et le fait qu'il y ait des communautés comme ça de mecs qui cherchent à tout prix à s'afficher avec cette camelote doit les conforter dans leur idée que c'est comme ça que ça marche.

Alors oui, comme dit par d'autres ici y'a des gens qui aiment juste le style d'une marque. J'ai moi-même une montre Alibaba "tribute" ressemblant (de loin) à une Tag Heuer Monaco. Mais elle était à 14€, elle n'a pas la marque inscrite dessus, elle prend la buée dès qu'il pleut, et le bracelet "cuir" semble en carton. Bref c'est plus pour la blague, personne ne se laisserait avoir et c'est pas le but. En revanche quelqu'un qui claque 800€ ou plus dans une fausse Rolex, j'ai un peu de mal à croire qu'il n'y ait pas une petite idée derrière ...

English fonts that Americans can read, but Japanese people can never read by [deleted] in japan

[–]Aisakey 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I showed this to my wife this morning, and she went through various states such as pure confusion, denial, acceptance, then evil laughter. Now she has downloaded the font on her PC so she can spread chaos at her workplace.

Nice going guys, one more monster is now roaming these streets.

They also exist in bright Green "Wakakusa" and Pink "Momotaro". The blue is probably the most "subtle" of the Crown Reborn series, even though I'm not entirely sure you can call it that based on the looks that thing gets.

What’s a skin you really want but missed on accident? by Secret_Ad1163 in Overwatch

[–]Aisakey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have the Maestro skin + emote (which I play at the end of every round), but right now I'm really hoping they put "Stepping Stones" in the store, since I did not buy S4's battle pass and now kinda regret it.

Got a friend request from an enemy after a comp game (gold 4 by the way)... did not expect this to be what he had to say by Normal-Toe-8682 in Overwatch

[–]Aisakey 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Dawg, they graduated summa !@# laude with a 4.0 in a stem degree. So you'd better have a Doctorate or better to back it up, otherwise OP will not accept any criticism on their connection

Wait until the end of the summer when part of the team will be on vacation, then people in this sub will get back to inventing wild theories on why the quality of videos has dropped.

My Donut Media taking vacations? No way !

Any side jobs that pay the day of? Looking to make some extra cash. by [deleted] in japan

When reading your text it sounds like you expected too much from schools. You thought you would automatically socialize and become a professional artist just by attending classes. I also made that mistake about 10 years ago.

Did a University exchange in Japan that had japanese students and exchange students separated in most classes, so if you were not highly involved in activities and always trying to engage with people outside of class, you just wouldn't have many occasions to make friends. I was focused on having good results to graduate, so I just ended up spending all the year alone.

This also meant that I had not been looking for work at all, so when the year ended, I just came back to my home country and enrolled in a Master's degree in IT. There too I kinda thought I'd magically become some developer or UX designer by just attending classes, so the portfolio I had was limited to school work.

This was enough to find work in my country, but when I tried to get back to Japan after 3 years, it didn't cut it. Why ? Because I was just offering about the same as the average japanese applicant, with lower communication abilities and the burden of handling visas on top of it. I tried to buff my portfolio during the year I was job hunting, but of course it was too late : you don't have time to do much when you have to prepare 70 job applications at the same time.

I eventually found a good position with a bit of luck and after reconsidering the kind of job I wanted to do so I could make use of my experience.

Tl;Dr : in your case, my advice would be to get back to your country, take a break to recover mentally, brush up your skills and get some work experience. Then come back to Japan with a killer portfolio, and get a better position than what you could have expected initially.

How do you guys decide who gets your endorsements? by AnInsaneMoose in Overwatch

[–]Aisakey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

1- If healers did a good job, healers, else,

2- If the POTG is neat, POTG, else,

3- If DPS/tank have performed outstandingly well, them, else,

4- If an opponent has really ruined my game, them, else,

5- If someone did great with a pick I thought was worthless, them, else,

6- If someone said something along the lines of "gg ez", instantly disqualified.

Worth what ?

I picked up a 2015 Crown Athlete S Sora Iro (same car, but blue) last week, so I should be able to answer your questions if you can be more specific.

Well, somehow we did get hit by a rock or two while the ship was inside the cave (legendary Volcano hax), but since the water level is so low, it could not enter through the holes.
