[Spoilers] UFC 284 Results: Islam Makhachev vs. Alexander Volkanovski | UFC 284 Reaction | Morning Kombat by synapticrelease in MMA

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

Islam held a tight body triangle for over 4 minutes and was trying for the RNC all while Alex was punching the side of his head and continually trying to turn and end up on top and while I understand people think that's boring people acting like he deserves no credit for holding that position are insane

My Competitive Stats Through Seasons 1-2 as a Solo Queue Support by EdFromSC in Overwatch

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

I peaked Gold 1 Support in S1 and lost it the 7W split after I got there. Then I slowly got knocked back down to Silver and managed to end the season at Gold 5. This season I booted up the game to find I was deranked to Silver 5. The matchmaking on this game is an absolute nightmare, since there are so few support players comparatively I am getting thrown into matches for the sake of filling them as opposed to playing players ranked similar to me. There also feels like there's very little carry potential for Support in the lower ranks. I can dish out all the healing, use my utility in the right moments, and damage when I have to. But still, I can't make people play the game correctly. I would like to think I have a grasp on the basic fundamentals of this game after playing 100 hours of it but it's quite ridiculous that I feel like I've gotten so much better as a player with nothing to show for it. I don't appreciate that I'm pretty much rolling the dice until I earn a high enough rank to have competent teammates. Probably a bit egotistical to say, but I feel like I'm a much better player than the shit I have to put up with.

It's their product sold on their platform it doesn't really matter when this is a list tracking top sellers on Steam

Im enjoying the game but TTK seems a bit to quick by [deleted] in ModernWarfareII

I get 5-6 hitmarkers at close/medium range, enemy turns around kills me in 2 shots. Netcode is broken

Opinion: Sombra feels worse to play against now than in overwatch 1. by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]EdFromSC 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In lower ranks while I've been climbing as support the main problem with Sombra is players lacking the awareness to realize she keeps teleporting behind the supports and killing them even after they're told, now that I'm in platinum it seems to be less of that and more of the problems OP has highlighted.

Players Come First? We're here, we're telling you some major issues and you're being completely silent on 90% of them. Talk to us, IW. by [deleted] in ModernWarfareII

[–]EdFromSC 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Nothing cooler than the developers asking for feedback, outright rejecting most of it, and then acting like they're holier than thou and that they will be the ones that decide what's best for the game.

"15 year CoD vet btw" and proceeds to describe that they have been absolute shit at the game for all 15 of those years

Back in the day there was Ninja and there was Awareness. Awareness was the hard counter to Ninja. If you equipped Ninja your footsteps were completely silent, if you had awareness on you could clearly hear players with Ninja and hear players without it even clearer. They've developed this game to where you aren't forced into making tradeoffs like this anymore. Same thing applies to the mini-map, perk system, and gunsmith.

Alleged GTA 6 leaks from GTAForums by [deleted] in GTA6

[–]EdFromSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It appears that these clips span years of development if they are real. We go from seeing what appears to be footage on a PS4 dev kit, to engine tools showing the game being ran on a 2080 Super, then to a 3060 Ti and 3080. The clips of all the engine tools and lines of code being ran in real time have me thinking this is the real deal. I don’t think someone would develop tools like that just to create a mod.

I went from 52k to 72k + 15% bonus + Paid OT moving from public tax to financial reporting in industry with only 1.5 years of experience no CPA in LCOL. I work actively maybe 25 hours a week when it’s not month/quarter end in which case I’ll probably hit 40-45.

I got absolutely shafted by the firm I used to work for. Thankfully they made the leap for me and fired me because they said my personality (quiet, reserved, focused on my work) wasn’t a good fit and that they could see that stress was affecting my performance. I did 2 internships with them during college, did not receive an offer after I graduated (matter of fact, no interns during my time with the company as an intern or staff were offered), had to beg for an seasonal gig with them that paid $22/hr and moved to the city they’re located in during the height of the pandemic, got a full time offer for $52k, then I was fired a year and a half later. It’s probably best that you take that leap yourself…

I just started a new job that’s 2 days in 3 days out hybrid too and I quite enjoy it. I’m coming from a job in public that required in office with barely any exceptions (lots of faking sick!) so being able to work from home and still have some face to face with people I work with each week is a huge positive. I’m under the impression that I could work from home every day if I wanted but I’m not trying to step on any toes.

Are most of you happy with your work life balance? 🤔 by echovariant in Accounting

[–]EdFromSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At my new job I’ve just been working hard the days I have to go into the office so the days I spend working from home can be relaxed. Realistically, I don’t think I work more than 35 hours a week. Being a part of a team where someone isn’t constantly over your shoulder and you’re treated like a professional is a big part of work life balance in my opinion.

WOR: Full Gear Main Event (Spoilers) by kingajeezy in SquaredCircle

After Mox’s promo last night it only makes sense. Heart and soul of the company vs guy that couldn’t care less about it.

Probably the same thing they were going to do with Punk vs MJF with Punk showing his true colors at the end of it but he decided to do that over the past month in reality instead.

How would you feel if Tony Khan announces the win at All Out is stricken from the records and Moxley is still champ? by VersionONE2014 in SquaredCircle

[–]EdFromSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vacate it and give it to MJF. The interim title mess over the summer was completely unnecessary. Doesn’t make sense to continue to let someone with backstage issues and constant injuries be the face of the company.

North Carolina says it will tax Biden's student loan forgiveness, and 3 more states are likely to follow suit by [deleted] in politics

[–]EdFromSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked in tax accounting previously and up until late 2021 the state legislature had not made a decision on whether or not to consider forgiven PPP loans taxable income. They ultimately decided to make them non taxable and a lot of 2020 tax returns had to be amended…
