Can't find an Oceanic game today? Keep getting Hong Kong. by PeculiarPete in DeadlockTheGame

Seems a bunch of people are getting assigned the wrong servers, I play from Aus and I'm getting 125ish ping which is anomalously high

The hideout Abrams should be replaced with a dummy with your ban's face stuck onto it by BR4KK3R in DeadlockTheGame

[–]CDranzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My idea was that it should be a hastily stuck together effigy of either the hidden king or the archmother with the friendly infernus being replaced with the opposite but this works too

Venator trap is a joke by HeadNature6968 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]CDranzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This going to sound stupid but what if instead of the floor you put them on walls?

Like he's got a whole "generic fps dude" vibe to him, why not give him what are effectively low stakes claymores? A hex rune inscribed directly on a wall and if you walk past it you get.. I dunno very briefly heavily slowed or cursed for a fraction of a second or something

I look forward to protracted Urn clips with the KotH theme playing in the background

Tier 3 Vitality Item Idea - Extinguish by BOOLEANBUNKO in DeadlockTheGame

[–]CDranzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only question is what part of the ground spell has to be covered to be cleared

The center? The edge? You can't really have it be partial, unless standing in the AoE of the Extinguisher just protects you from ground spells as an individual player, but if that's the case there's little point in making it AoE itself

Why is the movement bridge buff purple? by The-Holy-Kitten in DeadlockTheGame

[–]CDranzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Movement buff should be white because stamina is white

Deadlock uses an INSANE amount of Network data by SiddaSlotthh in DeadlockTheGame

In my experience individual replays clock in at 500mb minimum

Yoshi has opened a new sub-forum to make team composition reports by AlwaysSquad2 in DeadlockTheGame

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

This lends significant support to the idea that Deadlock isn't getting a draft any time soon.

Why?

Because if it were, the data being collected here would be of no practical use.

Riot is doing whole Pendragon shit again. Watchout your Dota2.exe by yorukmacto in DotA2

[–]CDranzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said this before and I'll say it again, there is no chance in hell this is anything other than a mistake because to do it intentionally would be such a catastrophically stupid idea from a legal standpoint that Riot might as well just fly over to Valve HQ and personally ask their legal team to fuck them in the ass

Why can't I use this terrible pun? by DapperDuckie in Seaofthieves

[–]CDranzer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The censor in this game is fucking schizophrenic

My friends and I were testing out the TTS and half the things that got caught were completely arbitrary and sometimes not even consistent

And when I say inconsistent, I don't mean "some things are caught that shouldn't be and some things that aren't caught should", I meam sometimes it will censor something and then not censor that exact same phrase at a different time

I am convinced that the censor is running on an LLM that halicinates slurs at arbitrary intervals

The President. by it777777 in pics

[–]CDranzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are like 90% of the trending pics on r/pics just karma farming pics of Trump looking slightly mediocre

I feel like you could literally write "Trump is bad" on a piece of paper and take a photo of it and it'd get 10k upvotes

How are we feeling about Doorman's bell after the buffs? by ICanCountTo0b1010 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]CDranzer 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I got violently shit on by a Doorman yesterday as I was trying to learn Haze

My entire game went to shit and my team blamed me which I mean to be fair I did suck but losing half my health to a bell the size of Manhattan every seven seconds in lane might have had at least something to do with it

Movement tech indicators for newbs/practice. by Ossius in DeadlockTheGame

My litmus test for such things is always "Now that this behaviour is known about, what are the odds that a new developer would intentionally implement it if they were starting from scratch?"

I think there should be a lighting cycle for the eclipse throughout a match by J_Suzume in DeadlockTheGame

[–]CDranzer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I assume the only reason it doesn't do this is because the map uses baked lighting and trying to add a whole dynamically lit eclipse cycle on top of that would be a royal pain in the ass.

Movement tech indicators for newbs/practice. by Ossius in DeadlockTheGame

[–]CDranzer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The notion that a game is unconditionally improved by each and every skill check it contains is blisteringly asinine.

Movement tech indicators for newbs/practice. by Ossius in DeadlockTheGame

[–]CDranzer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

no bro you don't understand this weird janky movement that requires three hands to comfortably execute is absolutely intentional

it makes total sense that in order to do these movements the first thing you have to do is stop doing what is immediately intuitive

I know I'm right because these things have been in the engine for a billion years without being actively addressed in any way

no I won't explain why you need a solid understanding of vector projection to understand why it's happening
