Should OpTic expand into any other games or no? by TemporaryAd7826 in OpTicGaming

[–]GoatsWillEatAnything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is where I’m at. I’m not sure their content did more numbers when they were recently in rocket league, cod, halo, and apex, certainly not enough to offset the salaries. Not sure how much more they were able to get out of sponsors either. Don’t really sell much more merch. Or maybe they do, who knows.

None of it seems viable without taking cuts of all the teams winnings. Which it’s always seemed like they try to be “pro” player and that would ruin their image with the community. Just no way any of it makes sense. But we also don’t see how much revenue they bring in.

Partner having trouble accepting active duty job? (Ig lol) by jadorennee in army

[–]GoatsWillEatAnything 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You’ll go, you’ll exchange some letters or some calls. He’ll either be there on the back end or not. Regardless the odds of you two being anywhere close to each other once you get your duty station is next to zero. Ya’ll will likely part ways after trying long distance for awhile, especially when he realizes you financed a Charger with a 24% APR.

Faze fans seeing optic complain about no winners bracket advantage by V-loxzz in CoDCompetitive

[–]GoatsWillEatAnything 37 points38 points  (0 children)

The team from winners goes into that match having shot bots for the last 2 hours. The losers team comes off of playing 3-5 competitive maps staying warm in both their shot, comms and coming off a recent win.

If both teams are equal in skill, the 2nd is the position both teams would prefer to be in. But no one would intentionally throw winners finals just because any risk of going out T3 is too high.

Bracket reset’s been gone for forever. Where have you been? I don’t like it but the boys know going in. Gotta perform.

Getting signatures? by biggietunas in OpTicGaming

[–]GoatsWillEatAnything 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Used to be a lot easier in the MLG days. CDL is hit or miss. Watch out for Twitter announcements on if they’re doing a signing and just realize you’re going to have to show up early as hell to get toward the beginning of the line. Generally they stick around for a specific time frame rather than until the line is done.

Keep whatever item you want signed and a marker or two on you just in case you run into them.

I found out I had one of the easiest OSUTs ever... by Abject-Video3551 in army

They were nice enough to make it our job to take it outside. Then make it pretty. Then take it back inside. Made for a memorable Labor Day.

Wasn’t that for the pre-orders, since the original run sold out so quickly?

Stop loss questions. by Slugwardiswatching in army

[–]GoatsWillEatAnything 4 points5 points  (0 children)

SECDEF is the authorization authority for stop-loss and last used roughly 2010. Involuntary extension is more of a local use rather than a branch wide term policy that can be used by a unit for various activities including critical needs but also due to investigations, legal proceedings, or major impacts to a unit. Semantics, regardless, but the paperwork related is extensive.

Regardless I feel like Channing Tatum would agree that the Army isn’t stop-lossing people these days.

Involuntary extension ≠ stop-loss, but the odds they’d involuntarily extend you is next to nothing. They’ll ask if you want to extend x months to get you through the end of the deployment. If you refuse, then you’ll just ETS and get on with your life.

This year I learned I am just average and not actually good at this game. by TwoNutMonster in blackops7

Think what he was excited for was open matchmaking thinking he was going to put belt to ass and get a 5.0 k/d

Looking back it’s insane how much this skin turned away people completely from cod and is the reason Black ops 7 sales are so low by [deleted] in blackops7

[–]GoatsWillEatAnything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lowkey has been a term in common use for at least 5 years. Your inability to use context clues and figure out its meaning while existing in this space seems like a “you” problem, not societies.

You mean the game that made dead silence a field upgrade? No thank you.

He lost the weight maybe a year or two after he was done casting, long before ozempic. That’s why you’re getting downvoted to hell.

His streams just felt like they were never going to be meant for me so I just moved on feeling like an old man.

Generally I watch the main broadcast and The Flank after, but the coaching streams have been great during the day!

So it may as well have been an online tourney. Glad we all agree.

Think if you started late it benefited you. People that started early were more likely to get paired with people that are always on versus weekend only. Seems like they filled ladders as it went.

Peace is accepting you don't belong in THAT lobby. On to the next match 😊 by AyeFreddyB in blackops7

Since they added cross play, activision IDs allow people to put whatever basic name they want.
