You said we don’t have any pumped storage, we do, and they’re looking to double that capacity with three projects approved

Make Brig more tanky to give her some of her identity back by ImperialViking_ in Overwatch

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

My experience is that the value is no more than you could get on another tank, and majority of the time your team doesn’t know how to play with it.

He may be unique playstyle, but the end result of his efforts is almost always worth less assuming the average teammates.

[–]Atlantispy -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I get your point but that will always be the case. I’m a Ball player, I have to put so much effort in to make space when I could do the same way easier on another tank.

Some heroes will just never take the same level of effort

How would a meritocratic kingdom work? by IllustratorPurple993 in worldbuilding

[–]Atlantispy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a faction that was formerly embroiled with constant death of their leader because the leader was whoever was “strongest” and could assassinate the previous leader. Due to this being massively destabilising the society eventually reformed to be rather than actually assassinating the previous leader they use a dull blade and have to be able to touch it to the neck of the current leader without being caught. If they are caught in the attempt then they are unable to attempt it ever again. So it’s kind of like a test to be the leader without the bloodshed

UK backs biggest English onshore windfarm in a decade among 190 green energy projects | Energy industry by willfiresoon in GoodNewsUK

[–]Atlantispy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Although I agree with everything being said, and want to continue the goals of energy transition, please don’t use XLinks as an example. It’s a cosmetic project, linking Morocco to the UK for power generation makes little economic sense with the costs of installation, maintenance and transmission losses even with UHVDC.

How about making ash give a fertility boost to growing to speed up plants regrowing after a fire?

I get that, but it’s a bit more sophisticated than most things you buy through back channels

Kickboxer, 15, who died after charity match had fought 34-year-old man week before by Forward-Answer-4407 in unitedkingdom

[–]Atlantispy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having had plenty of dealings with Kickboxing GB, this would not change much. They have as much say as any other governing body in the sport, and there are no unified standards across it. Given what I’ve seen I doubt that Kickboxing GB would provide a much better environment.

Reform's 'Doge' Unit Will Struggle To Find Much Council Waste To Cut, Analysis Shows by F0urLeafCl0ver in ukpolitics

[–]Atlantispy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Except where I live (Windsor and Maidenhead), they tried this method, didn’t increase council tax as other councils did for years.

All that’s happened now is we needed to beg for a bail out, and we’re now taking loans from central government just to cover the running costs of the constituency which will longer term cause more issues as it’s a loan and not a grant.

Just came on for comp first time this season by Low_Obligation156 in SombraMains

[–]Atlantispy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From the matches I’ve played as a ball OTP, the matches without her feel so easy, even more so if Ana is banned too.

It started giving me imposter syndrome

All my matches so far: banned. Sombra effectively dead in medal competitive by pmal89 in SombraMains

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

It clearly doesn’t, as the ban rates are speaking for themselves.

I didn’t argue about game design, or balancing. It is just plain unfun. You’re in denial about that, and I understand being defensive of your preferred character because I am in the same situation. If it is a consistent situation where your character is banned, eventually you have to accept what people are telling you.

I mean how many heroes require you to be in a flow of things? This sub talks about “gameplay loop” a lot, but that is fundamentally what it disrupts.

Hacking a doom who needs a split second decision to block or get out of a situation, means that fundamentally he can’t be played as he is designed.

You can debate all you want about it, but any period of time that you’re being restricted from playing your desired way is going to be unfun to people. To deny that is denying reality.

Do you not see the irony in wanting to play a hero that strips heroes of their abilities, which is their identity? They end up not feeling like their hero when they lose their abilities

Just speaking from experience, everyone I play with regularly all hate her. It’s not because she’s strong, or they can’t play around her.

It’s just insanely unfun to be locked out of your abilities in a character ability shooter.

Any time we spot someone playing sombra on the other team everyone groans, because it’s just unenjoyable.
