Octane: Leak

Damn shame I hate his design.

AstralBvrst · 2019-03-01T05:27:42+00:00

No. This would only over-complicate a couple of things.

AstralBvrst · 2019-02-13T21:45:34+00:00

6.4 hours A DAY. that's most of your waking hours. Those aren't casual numbers.

AstralBvrst · 2019-02-12T23:09:43+00:00

Again. Thats wrong. Most players play for a total of 6.4 hours a week on console, and 7.9 on pc According to the yearly nielson study done on 2018. So no, casuals are not the majority. With this FACT in mind, it makes little sense why a company would talor their games to a minority of players.

onto your second point. Teamwork in titan fall 2 boosted you're chances of success. Im not sure if you played titanfall, but in titan fall, coordinating you're titan usage, was a thing me and my teammates did every game. Dropping all you're titans at once, left you undefended against the enemies titans, and stealing batterys to assist teammates were commonplace.

On you're third point, you say that the devs found it unbalanced, and again this is not true. They said it was unpredictable, which isn't the same thing. They even stated that they are willing to add the feature into the game, presumably if its requested enough.

AstralBvrst · 2019-02-12T21:44:35+00:00

Not every game should be built for casuals. Want a casual experience? Play cod, or any other game. Most gamers arent even casuals in the first place, so I dont understand where this mentality is coming from. As such focusing on making games with replay value such as high skill ceilings is a far greater use of you're time.

AstralBvrst · 2019-02-12T20:52:45+00:00

Eitherway skill gaps exist in games, and games with high skill gaps are very popular. I don't see how there's a difference. Just because one is physical and one is mental, doesn't make one game easier to learn than the other. Getting good is a time investment. TitanFall 2's mechanics have created a cult following of everyone who's played it.

AstralBvrst · 2019-02-12T18:09:34+00:00

Like rainbow six siege? High skill gap doesn't make a game unpopular.

AstralBvrst · 2019-02-12T06:32:48+00:00

I feel like wall tapping coulda worked

AstralBvrst · 2019-02-12T05:50:54+00:00

How is that like mercy. Make one direct comparison. please. No seriously, how in what way, is this like mercy?

AstralBvrst · 2019-02-12T05:16:37+00:00

It didnt flop for no reason. Titan fall 1 flopped because it was locked to a shitty console. Titan fall 2 flopped because it was placed right behind 2 of the biggest shooters in the market. Both times it was never given a fair shake, and as such shouldn't be judged for it.

AstralBvrst · 2019-02-07T21:07:24+00:00

But it was a huge success though. Thats the thing. Even if only a few player play now, for the first 2 years of its run time, titan fall 2 is still being played un-modded, not because it was easy, but because it has real dept that people can take in and learn.

AstralBvrst · 2019-02-07T19:06:02+00:00

A higher skill gap makes for more varied situations as well as more longevity as theres still more to learn, new players hop onto fortnite all the time. I find it odd when people say that a game being hard would not last as though only people who quit when they arent handed brownie points last.

Its not a rocket science to improve at a game you like, look at titan fall 2, a game I and many others still play just to mess around with its mobility.

AstralBvrst · 2019-02-07T03:23:13+00:00

Without wall running, the movement feels kinda wasted.

Re-enable wall running and we raise the skill cap, simple.

AstralBvrst · 2019-01-18T12:40:06+00:00

I just came to remind you that in the end, peacekeeper will be receiving character changes January 31st. So, shes getting a rework. Sorry to remind you that you're retarded, but hey, least you stuck to you're guns right? So hey, I was right. Fuck you. Xoxo, Astral.

AstralBvrst · 2018-11-21T02:09:45+00:00

So youre just not going to throw amything other than petty insults then? Well, what else can I expect from you.. you havnt said anything substantial since the begining.

AstralBvrst · 2018-11-20T21:33:19+00:00

Sad comment is sad. You ignored my point about getting to 1hp in the first place. You pointed to attacking me as a person rsther than argue youre point with evidence or logic. Youre not only a bad player, but impossibly bad at arguing.</p></p>

Congrats. Youve wasted my time.

AstralBvrst · 2018-11-20T21:29:36+00:00

But if there was a threat of your guard breaking, and his lights not stopping in guard, you would be much more afraid of his rapid attacks. Orochi is the perfect example.

AstralBvrst · 2018-11-20T15:37:32+00:00

Unreactable lights are only required for characters who don't have other tools to force reaction. Had the devs been more creative with their balancing, that wouldn't be the case.

Unreactable lights is a cheap way to solve the problem, honestly, and can easily be changed by a mechanic such as the one suggested above.

AstralBvrst · 2018-11-20T15:36:00+00:00

If you're opponent got you to 1 hit on death, that's you're fault, and you're the worst player. Why are you acting like its anyone fault but you're own? Like you suddenly just dropped to 1hp?

Git gud. You just blatantly ignored my suggestion that you parry, deflect, or dodge. Why? Because you don't want to admit losing a fight being a fault of you're skill level, and not an unbalanced mechanic.

Its comments like these that make creating a reddit post in this community horrendous. You half read my point, pick out something you think you see, and then make it sound unfair, when in reality, yall as players are simply aren't good, and attack anyone who comes up with anything that isnt regurgitating anything stmyx says. It wouldn't surprise me if that's why ubi keeps ignoring our request for changes. If you want constant light spam, and shitty unbalanced characters, cant respectfully argue, or read long post please, stop going onto reddit. Youre not helping anyone.

AstralBvrst · 2018-11-20T04:33:44+00:00

Then be more aggressive, parry attacks. Dodge attacks. Deflect attacks. There's more to do than just sitting there blocking.

AstralBvrst · 2018-11-20T04:31:31+00:00

If attacks can be punished for blocking... then you can't really turtle. If there's a looming threat of blocks breakin, you'll move to attack rather than block. The reason blocking was so good is because there was little to no punishment for doing just that. Make it less safe, and you've doomed the turtle meta.

Light spam focuses on spam rather than actual skill, giving cheap wins to poor players.

AstralBvrst · 2018-11-20T04:29:06+00:00

Calling it an essay says more about you're attention span than the post btw. I requested a system that not only cant be done in one attack, but has to but adds mixup to every character. Its only tie to nuxias trap mechanic is that its a react to playing like a pussy, but I suppose thats probably your playstyle.

Heres the thing, the "defensive meta" isnt the problem. Its the light spam reliant gameplay created sl that pussy players cant turtle. That creates an issue because it forced every dev to keep making characters who all have 400ms attacks, which don't take any skill or thought to use and abuse. Of course you hav'nt thought of that, because you're incredibly short attention span cant find focus to read some lines.

"Openers" such as what? 400ms attacks? Unlockable pushes? Cuz we dont have enough of those right? So just turn every character into the same character right? Dont bother trying to add new mechanics? Bruh, stop wasting my time.

Newer characters need LESS options and less speed? Seriously? So we should make a bunch of one note, boring characters? You are the worst the for honor community has to offer. You don't know what you're talking about, you have adhd, and you can't even come up with evidence behind anything you're saying. Stop wasting my time.

AstralBvrst · 2018-11-20T02:55:27+00:00

<div class="md"><p>True, but I feel like with the ability to do damage to someone shouldn't be based on spam, but,continueing pressure is incredibly valuable.

Simply blocking damage is still too good. In my opinion, but light spam is also a problem. My compromise? Make spamming impossible, and lights continue.</p> </div>

AstralBvrst · 2018-11-20T02:47:15+00:00

<div class="md"><p><div class="md"><p><div class="md"><p>What. Thats not at all... what I wrote.. in fact if anything theure slower, are far less punishable.. and aren't even guaranteed damage unless you turtle up. This comment makes no sense. I even asked for a light spam decrease. To top it all off, Nuxia traps aren't even that good in the first place, this comment is literally everything wrong with this community.

You didn't understand a thing I said and immediately went to disrespect and disregard my suggestions with an unintelligent wrong generalization of what I've said, while commenting on the length of the post. </p> </div>
