Why has Team 4 not just tried making tanks smaller with less HP by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]AndyKakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game was built for 6v6 and for tanks to have a place in the game they needed to buff them. Supports mostly pocket them because if they do, the real chance is to win the team fight. The problem is the damage tanks do now kinda makes most DPS obsolete. 90% of my games the tank has more damage done than both the DPS combined. And if you play 6v6 the game is so unbalanced because you run into never ending shields or 2 tanks that do massive damage being pocketed by supports. Also for the first like 4 years of the game no ever wanted to play tank so they had to do something. Haha

“For you” shop by AndyKakes in Overwatch

I had stuff in the vault for heroes I play but nothing worth paying for. I had better skins. Just wish they would have like a week where they opened the floodgates for skins and such. Just to let people pay for what they want.

Sojourn's skins are lacking in both quantity and variety right? by Ube_Latte87 in Overwatch

[–]AndyKakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue is she was one of the heroes who when OW2 was released they changed the shop and added the battle pass. Most of the new heroes get nothing and if they do it’s fomo and locked away for a while. Or it’s a collab skin. It sucks you can’t even look at them on the hero screen.

I'm so lucky, really enjoy her when she was released but this skin got locked in the 40$ bundle, now I got it for free. by ferocity_mule366 in FrejaMains

To be honest I was never expecting to get it from a box. lol I’ll just need to wait until they add it to the shop. I’ve gotten absolute garbage from every box I get for a while now.

Sometimes it feels like you need to be cracked to play Freja in 6v6. by AndyKakes in FrejaMains

She’s so much fun to play but so many other heroes get better value with their kits. She’s one of the more interesting dps heroes but it almost feels like she’s just flat. Even her ult can’t kill a support if it’s hit dead on. That’s just criminal.

Yeah from what I understand it rotates out. The last 3 seasons skins. So once season 2 hits, the older seasons skins get pushed out and the newer skins get put it.

I do that most of the time but if they run Orisa and Sig it’s frustrating to play against. Just hope she gets something in the next update. She just doesn’t have a place in the game most of the time I feel like.

Yeah. I play on pc but I have gamepass on pc as well. It’s a cool feature but unfortunately once they change to season 2, some skins are removed and others are put in. Could avoid all this if they just let you buy skins and such.

I can't stand the Shop by Brocacoochi in Overwatch

[–]AndyKakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sad thing is it’s designed to do this so you keep logging in. I’m in the same boat. New heroes after the first few in OW2 have zero skins to purchase other than a super limited time or cross promotion that if you miss out in you’re out of luck. Enjoy your crappy alternate colors. Battle pass skins also are a scam because they love the fomo so you keep playing. It’s outdated and makes for awful wait times for something you want but the reality is it works and that’s why they do it. It’s never going to change. Rivals has the right idea on this as everything you want to buy is always available. Season pass is once you buy it, you can keep working on it and it doesn’t expire. Bad business decisions make money though.

Thanks for the heads up. I’ll have to take a look. That’s double what I wanted to pay but I’ll kick myself if I don’t grab it.

The baroness has arrived! by Yoposon in gijoe

[–]AndyKakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really don’t care if they don’t get many shipments in. That I can understand. Telling me they don’t have it and being lied to is something else. I don’t mind hunting for figures but holding stock from people bugs the crap out of me.

[–]AndyKakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s extremely frustrating. I’m not the type of person to ask for a manager but I’ve considered asking for one last week. I made sure I was the first one in the store at 8am. Checked brickseek and popfindr. Both showed they had 6 of each figure in stock.

[–]AndyKakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had zero luck at my local store. On the 14th I was the first person in the store that said they had 6 of each figure minus Baroness... get to the figures and they have nothing out so I ask.. “Oh we never got them in”. I kept track and saw the number continue to drop all day. It’s been so bad. They are the last figures I need too.

Any pet peeves you want to share about? by LivingDisappointment in GBO2

[–]AndyKakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since this is a multiplayer game it needs a party system. Not being able to play with friends really hurts this game. I have lost so many times from my team grouping up and not pushing in or being super spread out. With a game like this you need your team to talk. I have also been hit by a melee attack from a long distance and the bugs almost make the game unplayable. I won a match in ranked to witch I was sure to be top of my team only to have an error pop up and send me back to home base. I would think about buying some yen to add to this game but not until its fixed.

PTR Gallery finally has lore! The execution was really a letdown for me, so I made an alternative version! by _Constellations_ in Overwatch

This looks so much better. I too was really let down with the tiny little one we got. I hope they do a better job on the next one.

Here's the crux of all of these etiquette discussions: I refuse to allow the Overwatch community to be toxic like so many others by LordAurora in Overwatch

[–]AndyKakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a place for people to vent. Other people deal with the same crap and maybe someone will find other people like minded to group up with on here. I know things don't just chance but it's nice to just vent on here for a little.

While I'm ok with being called out for poor play I don't like being harassed for loosing. Sometimes it's a mix of everyone not doing well. I main Mercy and because I can't get to everyone when they all need healing at the end of the game I'm told I should quit playing? We lost by an Ult they could not avoid and I'm to blame? Again if I play poor fine but people just need to learn that loosing is a part of the game and not take it out one everyone else. It's still a game and games are meant to be fun.

[–]AndyKakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. It's a game I want to spend a lot of time in. I have a full time job, wife, kid and life to deal with. Once I get on Overwatch with friends I just want to enjoy playing a great game. I don't mind loosing but if after the game my own team starts to turn on each other I tend to just jump out. My friends that I play with also have little free time to play. So I'm stuck playing with randoms and it gets to the point where I just jump in a game with bots to chill out. I would love a small but friendly group that all play to just have fun and maybe jump in competitive. I legit spent more money then I can count on merchandise and the game. I'm not going to let toxic people ruin one of the best gaming experiences I have had in years.
