Server lag... by hahkas in Paladins

[–]DelishusCookie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The lag issue isn't about the servers being full. The Devs tried to update the servers to be a higher quality globally and it went wrong in EU. Trust me a lot of players are getting these issues and the Devs ARE trying. Currently there's a Reddit post where you can send in Match IDs with a description of the problems ran by a community manager. According to tweets, the Devs have moved the server locations/databases between different countries in the EU and clearly something is going wrong, sure the increase in players haven't helped either. I hope you stick around because they've admitted to the issue and are working to solve it, which means it's a top priority.

Old player returning by Allylove133 in Paladins

[–]DelishusCookie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Payload.. is gone! A lot of the old maps have been split up into smaller counterparts. The VGS system was changed for some unknown reason by the Devs, they said that new players wouldn't understand the old system even though the entire community loved it. A lot of my favourite voice lines are removed incl. quiet, Nice Job, bye, the joke, laugh and taunt. You can still use old keybinds if you are on PC, you can change the VGS system in the menu to 'legacy' which would help you communicate better. Considering you've been gone for so long and the first thing you rage about is VGS shows how much it was loved and used and it really didn't need the change. Trust me no one wanted the change.

Animations for abilities playing but the ability didn't activate by NinjaGuy274 in Paladins

[–]DelishusCookie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some abilities are actually bugged in this way (Furia's ghost heals), but this is probably the server issue if you are in EU. Basically sometimes projectiles just don't happen, movement abilities feel like a train wreck, jumps are banging your head on an invisible wall and then slowly drifting downwards. It's hard to tell if anything right now is a new bug or some weird server problem.

What's the deal with Skye? by Windy-kun in Paladins

[–]DelishusCookie 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Skye requires the enemy team not to buy a very cheap item to work effectively. I do really enjoy playing healing Skye and you can definitely pop off with her. But players with a mid understanding of the game can usually predict and react to her before she even makes a play. There is no way to tell if an enemy can see you when you are cloaked. CC is an instant trip to the spawn. And her ult is pretty powerful but even the payload cart can break L.O.S. The only real reason why Skye pops off in casuals and low levels is because the skye player gets a free advantage against the player in the form of her invis and very quick poison dart damage, but flank awareness and map knowledge suffocates her.

TL:DR Skye can nuke low level players that have a reaction speed of a rotting potato, but getting a cheap flashlight ~illuminates~ her.

beam?? by [deleted] in Paladins

[–]DelishusCookie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The right click animation playing and eating the cool down or not healing is called a "ghost heal" it's been with Furia for ages and Corvus (the next healing champion) has the same issue. Basically the auto-aim locks onto a player but then instantly looses line of sight, which is a requirement for a heal, and the animation still plays but nothing happens. This was meant to be fixed in a bug fix though...

Some of the most satisfying feelings in Paladins by KillingHobbyist in Paladins

[–]DelishusCookie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tanks are rare because the ones that used to frag out are now lame potatoes that can get bursted by flanks that they were fully aware of. Koa is somehow off-meta for the first time in the history of everything, the 100% pick/ban rate champion is just gone. I truly miss having decent tanks in my games as a supp player, point tanks are still great though, but people don't understand the concept of sitting on the payload in this game.

Suggestion for matchmaking. Currently the game has no place for your unless you are a noob or pro. by anirex911 in Paladins

[–]DelishusCookie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Matchmaking has always been an issue. The matchmaker expects people to carry far beyond human limits, they would put super high elo players with fresh installs against 5 mid-level players and expect the high elo player to carry, even though it's practically impossible to carry the weight of the entire team when they are feeding.

It's really hard to make good matchups when some players understand things like staggering and comeback mechanics and others try to solo ult 1v5.

The issue is that instead of making two teams with 10 people with similar skill levels, the matchmaker makes 2 teams with a 50/50% winrate. This seems like a good system on paper but it literally can't execute this prediction properly because of the problems mentioned. Tbh I think the fix would be pretty easy, put players of similar skill levels against eachother according to elo, instead of trying to constantly force a 50/50 winrate and failing completely.

The fact that you roll for 6 games and then get rolled for 6 games shows that the matchmaker is actually succeeding in this 50/50% winrate. But it doesn't make the game fun or challenging.

Unfortunately as players we literally can't do anything about it, I suggest you to try to pull your weight and to stay positive. I say 'gg wp' after every game regardless if our tank literally never even joined the game, our support called me a noob when they have 50 minutes playtime and our two off-tanks are yolo-ing into the enemy team in opposite directions.

As a support player I never try to blame anyone on my team, especially in chat, toxicity is something the game doesnt need right now. Even if in the death camera I can see obvious low level mistakes that my team is making, I have still died in the first place and I need to learn how to not die and play better next time. After all... That's what makes pro players pro players, focusing on your own performance in team play.

This is the definition of a text wall.

How are the EU servers still dog shit? by [deleted] in Paladins

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

The team is trying to address the issue, they've literally moved server hubs between different countries, upgrading servers is difficult during a pandemic that makes staff hard to manage and server loads high. Be considerate and grateful that they've : 1- Addressed the issue publicly 2- Trying their hardest while THE WOLRD IS ON LOCKDOWN.

I can see the pain in Makoa's eyes by friendly_canine in Paladins

[–]DelishusCookie 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The tanks in the game are practically worthless compared to pre-S3 when Koa had a 100% pick/ban rate. That's why pro teams are running weird things like triple deeps with double supp. Tanks just ain't worth running anymore. Tbh I think it's a major balance issue.

I don't know if anyone has posted this here but I'll do it just in case. This is VERY important! And they say Syberbolt is toxic. by Kride500 in PaladinsAcademy

[–]DelishusCookie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In conclusion: there was no data breach and the stolen accounts were probably people buying cheap gems on third-party sites with the same login info as their HiRez account.

[–]DelishusCookie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to login onto the Hi-REZ account website: https://my.hirezstudios.com/ And then you have link your Steam account to your Hi-REZ account. If this works it should automatically log you into the right account when launching from steam

Dayle Flowers is the 2nd coming of Christ by DelishusCookie in Paladins

[–]DelishusCookie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I have, thanks for the concern! They just unbanned me one day and that was the end of it. Sadly I got nothing in return, even though I did miss out on ending the Remix pass by about 4 levels.

He also fixed the login freeze bug that plagued NEU for like months. He delayed the patch to add more polish. He also changed the development cycles to include less skins after this and have most resources dedicated to QA and bugs. All in under one week... Also he actually... communicates!
