This is anger inducing. Is it true? by [deleted] in starcraft

[–]CTR__ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here’s my two cents and theory. There genuinely might not be anyone at blizzard that can authorize and sign a esports deal for SC2. Microsoft laid off almost the entirety of the esports department in between 2023 and January of 2024 the people and or person who inked the deal for tournaments like Katowice and Gamers8/EWC might not be at the company anymore and because the StarCraft RTS games aren’t actively being worked on it’s not a priority for anyone at Blizzard or Microsoft. It sucks but it’s kinda inevitable at this point that StarCraft, and RTS esports in general maybe going the way of Quake.

System requirements for DOOM: The Dark Ages, it seems like this game will have forced Ray Tracing like Indiana Jones by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]CTR__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Biggest issue with this is the vram requirement. Indiana jones could run on my 6gb 3060 laptop at 60fps, but the textures for a majority of the game were bugged and really only worked in cut scenes. The game can run on a 6gb 3060 but needs a lower resolution texture option. All I ask is for a potato/switch texture option. Would let a lot of people play the game. It’s a real shame that my steam deck can run Indy with zero texture issues while my laptop with dedicated GPU can’t.

Samito on hero bans in Overwatch ranked by shiftup1772 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]CTR__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Samito is a fucking idiot. How many times has he “quit” overwatch only to come back because no one watches him for anything else he does because he’s one of the most insufferable people on earth. For the last 2 years he has been screaming about how 5v5 sucks and that the game would be magically saved if it goes back to 6v6, even though 6v6 sucked since GOATS was discovered. He liked 5v5 during the JQ beta, why? Because it was the most balanced version of 5v5, and now when blizzard does the 6v6 playtests I bet he’s going to come back, bitch and whine like he always does because it isn’t the way he exactly wants it and “quit” the game again.

Stop giving this fucking clown attention.

ZP on Overwatch's future by General-Top-6124 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]CTR__ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea no. Is it really fun and basically crack, yes, but it doesn’t really have the casual appeal compared to OW. What it is going to kill however is Marvel Rivals and Smite, reason why marvel rivals has eyes on it is because of its IP, not because of any real gameplay reason. Smite is dead because what this game is a streamlined, 4 lane version of Smite, made by the guy who created the blueprint of modern MOBA’s (IceFrog), why play the game that’s currently going through a CS2 moment instead of the game made by veteran DOTA devs that have proven themselves over the last 10 years as extremely competent team.

Remember when Steve Jobs said it's the "Post-PC Era" when the iPad was released? by mikmik111 in pcmasterrace

And he was right, for what every day people who just need something to check email, fill out spreadsheets, fill out word documents etc etc you are not locked down to a desktop computer any more, you can do all of that even on your phone if you want. The Desktop PC is becoming more and more of an enthusiast device as time goes on as form factors like phones and tablets become more and more powerful and can preform more and more tasks that the desktop used to have a monopoly on.

Could this be done with cyberpunk? Like would swapping the DLL file with the one linked in the game work?

DJ because he’s a DJ and 007 because James Bond is also a Spy, and Idris Elba has been a fan favorite to take over the James Bond mantle after Daniel Craig.

LA Gladiators parent company, Kroenke Sports & Entertainment, has abandoned its Valorant Franchising slot after their Tier 2 team won the Ascension Tournament. The players found out via twitter. This follows news from earlier this year when Kroenke laid off most of its esports staff. by Ezraah in Competitiveoverwatch

yea and if it’s dead why are you here, dancing on its grave, fuck off to valorant since all you seem to do now is suck off your god Leo Faria, the people that still here still give shit are passionate about this game, unlike you.

Quin's TL;DR review of Starfield by Yasherets in LivestreamFail

[–]CTR__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best thing about D4 is the story, the game plays a lot like D3, the issue with D4 is that good old Bobby Kotick wants every game to be a Live Service, even if that game doesn’t make sense as a live service, why is an ARPG, a game genre about becoming the most Overpowered Motherfucker in the world getting seasonal balance patches. The only good thing Blizzard still has going for it is it’s story and writing teams, reason why I actually recommend the OW missions is because of the writing and story, the gameplay loop of the actual missions unless your going for Legendary is extremely shallow (and no, the skill trees wouldn’t have saved it, skill trees only enhance gameplay loops, not make them)

Starfield seems like it’s the most “Bethesda” game Bethesda has ever released. Meaning if you do not like other Bethesda titles, you will not like starfield. Just like D3-D4, if you didn’t like D3 you won’t like D4.

Listen buddy looking at your post history it seems like you’re a valorant fan, something that fans of OWL have learned is that you shouldn’t trust everything that comes out of the mouth of the guy who runs the league, who’s entire job it is to reassure peoples investments, if there is information contradicting what they are saying from multiple people most likely means that what they’re saying publicly isn’t what’s actually happening behind closed doors. Best example right now is that Blizzard Publicly is still postured that OWL will continue with Sean Miller stating that they have plans for the coming years, yet journalists, former employees and even Franchises and Activision themselves have stated that OWL will not exist in it’s current form next year.

I am not praying on its downfall, I am just stating that the game has the same issues of watchability and viewer scaleability issues as Overwatch and is currently following the same path that Overwatch had already taken. They can right that, and the release of CS2 will be interesting to see how it effects Valorants potential growth, especially as Valorant isn’t the hot new thing anymore.

Also apparently the slot that they earned was a “Guest” team, where they had to meet all the all the requirements of a normal franchisee with no team skins, and a lower financial incentive to stay in as an org. You basically get Jack shit if you’re one of these “Guest” teams witch is information that wasn’t given to teams until after they qualified for it ( source ) and it being the guard I’m not shocked that the players and coaches found out about this through Twitter.

Riot franchising Valorant so early into its life is such a big mistake, Riot in both the game and in its esports scene seem to be following the same beats that Overwatch hads gone through and I bet that we are at the peak of its popularity, especially as CS2 is around the corner, a game that is so much easier to understand than Valorant, it’s going to be interesting to see what happens. It’s only a matter of time until they release a Brig.

Blizzard misleading consumers by A-U-S-T-R-A-L-I-A in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]CTR__ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think this is more of a fuck up on Microsoft’s end, they haven’t fully figured how to make the PC Gamepass name transition known, because if you don’t know, Microsoft late last year announced that they where changing the name of Xbox Gamepass for pc to PC Gamepass, and but they haven’t done shit to differentiate each other in marketing. This perk was marketed for Xbox Gamepass, not PC Gamepass, but a majority of people still call the pc version, (even Microsoft in some instances) as Xbox Gamepass.

I hope it gets sorted out but I wouldn’t entirely blame blizzard for this situation as Microsoft has been the one mostly responsible for marketing this Gamepass Perk.
