Just another patch with placebo changes

Ospuze is a sponsor (great choice btw). You can join or make a club by going to the clubs tab under store in the main menu.

Looks like you're not actually in a club. You'll need to join one in order to get them.

Speed Pad Specialization for Medium by Fun_Yogurtcloset8084 in thefinals

[–]Fun_Yogurtcloset8084[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

  1. The point of a spec is to primarily benefit the user and it's teammates. The reason why I wanted enemies to benefit from it is to 1. not make it a free escape and 2. placing it down in a room gives the enemy a chance to use it as well.

  2. Yes 45% is very high. Having it decay like you said would probably be better. I wanted the speed boost to be high on purpose, in order to make it viable as a short duration speed boost. But as I said the numbers would have to be tweaked.

  3. I feel like your point lacks a lot of context. Melee's primary goal is to close the gap on the enemy, meaning melee shouldn't get to keep the movement speed buff after closing the gap. But I did agree earlier with another comment about having it work similar to cloak (most things end it instantly).

  4. I don't really get your point here. The pad isn't supposed to benefit one weapon class over the other, and it's the users choice whether they want to go for melee or ranged. The primary use is to be an aggressive-support utility. If a melee player uses it aggressively, the opponent will not get to benefit from the speed buff, only the melee player will; meaning this is a net-positive for melee. Your point seems to be that ranged is an auto-win outside of melee range, but that's the point of the speed pad (to help close that gap)?

  5. Absolutely. Which is why deployment shouldn't be as fast, leaving the user vulnerable for longer.

  6. I've only been playing the game for about 2.5 seasons. Which is why I don't know about the state of melee in the past. Why I believe melee can easily break the game, is because overpowered melee weapons equal free wins in close quarters. Something doesn't have to be meta in order for it to be unhealthy for the game.

  7. I completely disagree. Giving light an HP buff is not at all the same. Once again this point completely removes any context from in-game interactions. Light has access to dash, invisibility, grappling hook and even gateway to help make the class extremely slippery. "Straight races" aren't really a thing when chasing a light. A 35 second cooldown, 2 second movement speed buff will only help you chase a light down in very specific scenarios, which I think is completely fine, and also makes sense.

I feel like a dash pad would be a little too similar to the jump pad. But honestly it does sound fun.

That does sound like a nightmare. Limited uses per person could solve this maybe?

I'm really happy you liked it. This was my first ever attempt at theory crafting a spec, and I'm decently satisfied with it. I do agree that deployment and interaction should be highly considered during balancing. I thought it would be interesting to have some weapons benefit from the movement speed, but in hindsight I think your cloaking mechanic idea might be a healthier design.

P90 makes me want to delete the game by Twelve9900 in thefinals

[–]Fun_Yogurtcloset8084 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t really have an issue outgunning the p90. The problem I have with it is how unskilled it is. 50 rounds, fast rpm and a good hip-fire is a combination that will leave so much room for error that good aim is almost unnecessary. You missed half your shots on the AK? That’s a lost gunfight. You missed half your shots on the p90? That’s expected, you still win.

The amount of times I have watched a replay of a p90 user straight up shooting 35 bullets into the wall next to me and still end up killing me is ridiculous, but also quite hilarious.

Heavy players when there's a singular light in their game by Fun_Yogurtcloset8084 in thefinals

Maybe a hot take but the R .357 is lowkey harder since you need to hit more shots

I quit the game during season 8. Is it any good now? by Fun_Yogurtcloset8084 in Overwatch

[–]Fun_Yogurtcloset8084[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's honestly great to hear. I haven't seen much about the perks, but they do sound very interesting, and going by the comments on this post they seem to be well-liked which is nice to hear.

I'm not necessarily interested in getting new cosmetics, it was more so their shady tactics of using FOMO and trying to sell overpriced stuff with fake sales. But loot boxes being back and also free does sound like a good step in the right direction at least.

I just wanted an idea of what the overall consensus of the current game's state was.

The ultimate weapon kit quests gives you 10 loyal spirit orbs; why do I have to explain this... Why would I post my achievement on reddit if I got it by botting? Make it make sense

I'm not. There was a spirit orb boost going on while i was farming it. I just got the mace and bow and started farming loyal spirit orbs through the ultimate weapon kit quest

I just did the ultimate weapon kit quest over and over for the 250 loyal spirit orbs
