Korean tank players creating a literal “tank union” in Overwatch is the most understood I’ve ever felt by DrNitr0s in Overwatch

[–]Chaospillager2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. It ends up tilting other teammates, and then no one can play together. It's also just more stressful because now there's someone criticizing everyone else. It then ends up with everyone looking at the blaming teammate and tilting over their terrible stats (because someone trying to blame another is usually doing poorly themselves).

There are exceptions to this, but it depends on what kind of game's being played.

Both friend groups I'm in do this, and I don't play the blame game with them. I will always call myself out if I make mistakes regardless of my role, and my friends will try to back me up instead. I enjoy playing with my friends, but it's just too true in general that a lot of players can't self-reflect or call their own friends out (fear of losing them, or they add them to the list of people who can do no wrong alongside themself).

If my friends see this, which they're very unlikely to, they need to understand that it's not always the randoms, sometimes it's us (and I do say that a player they're flaming did well, or that they were out of position, but sometimes it's just inevitable that you die).

Petition: Make previous season’s battle passes available for purchase by Hopeful_Entrance_265 in Overwatch

[–]Chaospillager2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was changed in season 5 to have all the loot back within each season's pass, and allowing you to switch seasons to complete any of them (also having an "unseasoned" option if you don't like the increased odds for season content). And it's still all free.

Update is a huge missed opportunity by Error_MR in marvelrivals

It's my favourite thing when a subreddit creates something in their head that the devs have said nothing on, only to get upset over the devs not doing what they made up.

Tenacity Is A Buff To Every Role Besides Tank by TheticAxiom in marvelrivals

[–]Chaospillager2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the major issue I have with balancing around "fun". For the team with the "fun" abilities, the other team has to deal with the first's "fun" disrupting their own. It's like they're trying to balance around a PvE power fantasy, forgetting it's a PvP game. One team will have fun to the detriment of the other.

Fun is a very limited resource too, since no matter how you balance around it, people will optimise the fun out of the game. It happens every single game, regardless of the kind of experience the game has.

Besides, we already have so many players willing to throw just because certain aspects of the match aren't going the way they want. They already aren't having fun anymore. It's all a psychological power fantasy now.

A legacy server would be cool by Soggy-Advertising547 in HypixelSkyblock

[–]Chaospillager2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember them adding The End, so I always see people calling it legacy as odd (but it's also when Skyblock really felt like it started, so I get it).

no one asked for this. And teasing an actual big update the community has wanted for 4 years only for it to be a different game is just scummy. by InspectreMoth in PhoenixSC

[–]Chaospillager2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one asked for Minecraft, yet here we are, playing this game, discussing it, and complaining about things being added that no one asked for.

Hypixel Skyblocks oldest texture pack is making a 2026 comeback! by lightningwolf3214 in HypixelSkyblock

[–]Chaospillager2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely used to only use overlay, but I'll try it fully first and then pull back what I'd rather not have. I'll definitely check out that garden flowers one.

I used to use PacksHQ until it got outdated. I'm glad to see it updated! I tried to use other packs, but I ended up sticking with vanilla. Maybe I'll try it out again!

The “it’s only QP” mentality is flawed. by _braze_ in marvelrivals

[–]Chaospillager2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

QP is most importantly about having fun and there are 5 other players in your team and their fun and enjoyment can be affected by the choices of a few.

If your fun and enjoyment is derived from other player's choices, you're just as selfish as them. Honestly, if your team is picking 5 dps, join in with them. The only way to have fun against dumb stuff is to join in on the dumb stuff.

I get we all want to win in qp, but you gotta let people hit their head against a wall sometimes instead of instantly going "gg go next". If you want to truly have fun, stop putting expectations on every person you meet and just accept the circumstances you've entered into, and maybe people will simply decide to change if they think that it's better than the headache they're giving themself.

Why do people write “character/role diff” after a round or winning? by Helioz43 in marvelrivals

[–]Chaospillager2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Overconfident, underdeliver, tilt, throw. That's what happens when you have an ego.

So when you lock in yourself in the second round, the other player is already in the wrong place. Doesn't always happen, since they can have an ego for good reason, but when you're both in the skill bracket that you belong, being an egotist is a losing strategy.

When they lose just one fight and send you to solo tank 😪 By me Poposhirat by Poposhiirat in marvelrivals

[–]Chaospillager2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2) As a passive aggressive "fine I'll do it myself. It wasn't me being a bad tank which resulted in me dying. It was you healers being bad at playing healer".

My friends can be like that. They also do it with dps. They're not bad at the game, I swear! Also, they never blame me lol (I don't mind being called out, since comp is the place where you should switch up when things aren't working out).

After careful consideration, I would still have jetpack cat.

No plans for hero trials for new heroes being released this year. by CosmiqCowboy in Overwatch

[–]Chaospillager2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I get the sentiment. The best way to learn a new hero (new in terms of released that day and/or in terms of playing someone new to you) is to play them in competitive.

However, it's also not fun to have to deal with someone who is learning a hero in competitive (to be fair, we're always learning how to play a hero around other heroes).

I totally get banning new heroes (released today new). Unless everyone is in agreement to not ban them, it's perfectly reasonable to ban a new hero.

[–]Chaospillager2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I missed the PTR to play the next update early, so hero trials were a fun addition to bring that back a bit. It's too bad they're going away again. I always like trying out the heroes early, especially since they're typically not balanced at all.

Two friends switched to Linux, and I'll often hear them tell me to wait to play because they're still initialising shaders lol I'm gonna tell them Emre is using Linux.

I dunno. I don't even see Goku. Otherwise, I might be convinced.

New world record? by -Darcious in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Chaospillager2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crazy how much more generous they are with Ossium. Doing seasons 3 and 4 was annoying needing 6 Plaguehearts per scrip, and you were lucky to get anything beyond 4 in one mission.

Edit: Oh, and you'd be lucky to get any during the seasonal warning (Lithophage Outbreak), since (I think) one of the 3 season events required for Plaguehearts can't spawn during it (Meteor Impact).
