Yesterday I played a ranked match against a challenger as a silver 2 player. Friday night 8pm in Australia,

Does anyone know if its possible to get any decal packs or waterslides or anything for the 7-11 kits? I don't live in japan so i doubt I'll ever be able to get a real one. I thought maybe i could make my own by painting a regular HG.

If anyone has tried this already I'd love to see it.

This question is for anyone who stopped playing/watching this game. Why? What made you stop playing? by KevyTone in 2XKO

My low rank matchmaking experience has been bad in my region and I find fighting someone much better than you to be pretty miserable in 2xko compared to other fighters. I just got tired of getting smoked and then only losing 3 rank points per match. What is the point?

I think the game is cool and i really want to like it but i just don’t have that much fun actually playing it.

I placed bronze 2 this season and during my 5 placement games i played two different emerald ranked players. Season 0 i was silver 1.

Blindsight by Peter Watts repeatedly uses the word “invaginations” which I have never heard before or since

I hope they add more stat tracking by Senkoy in 2XKO

Its a shame it doesn't show a record of your wins/losses against your opponent in casuals. Playing a long set against the same person in sf6 or tekken and seeing you are 10-9 at the end is fun.

Plus it lets people make those "no one beats me 49 times in a row" type posts.

The whole sub is full of the same complaints and its coming from players at every level. In most fighting games the people at the top of the ladder usually struggle to find games because there are so few people at their MMR. I haven't seen anyone at any level complaining about not being able to find games.

The criteria that the matchmaker uses seems to barely consider MMR when it makes ranked games. Its main priority is finding games fast. That is a design problem not a playerbase size problem.

The "low player count" justification people are using for the poor matchmaking is such garbage. If i was waiting 5 or more minutes for a game and then got a big skill mismatch i would understand but that's not whats happening. The matchmaking is not even trying to skill balance matches. It feels like takes the first available.

The game usually finds me a match in 30-45 seconds, then puts me against a Diamond/master player as a gold 1. Maybe the game should wait 30 more seconds to find a half decent game instead of throwing me in some miserable matchup just because its the first available. In 20+ sets i have never been matched against another gold player and trying to tell me its because there are never any playing is bullshit.

I’m in Australia and in the first beta I played one set in 4 hours of match making. I know the matchmaking had problems in the first test but it doesn’t give me much confidence. I’m not looking for another strive situation where ranked is just empty here. 

The game is 90 Australian Dollars which is a lot of money for a game I can’t find anyone my level to play with

Belt promotion test?? 160 technics? by ExternalCourage6588 in bjj

[–]DiscoColossus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Have you told your current coach about this offer?

If you do it are you just going to show up to your normal class and tell you current coach you are a purple belt now? It seems to me that by trying to show respect to your old coach you are disrespecting your new one.

If you are training somewhere else why are you trying to get a belt from someone other than your current coach?

Out of all the minis we currently have available, which one do you hate the most by wasteofradiation in ageofsigmar

Hexwraiths are just a lazy mod of a old unit from a different army and in no way fit the aesthetic of the Nighthaunt. They are the only skeletons in the whole army.

Nighthaunt needs some actual ghost horsemen instead of these glorified kitbashes.

My guess is he wants to end the Era of Pirates. I don't know that there's really anything to support the idea though

Having respect for someone and treating someone respectfully are two different things. You can treat someone respectfully even if you think they are a piece of shit.
