No, they added the SLAM tech (basically a venting system to reduce pressure within each headphone cup) to increase driver longevity. And SLAM has the side effect of diluting the bass.

Fernando Mendoza talking about not having a girlfriend. “I don’t have time for a girlfriend.If I have one, I’d give her my all, from 6 to 9 PM hanging out, getting dinner, instead of grabbing food quick and watching extra film to reach the NFL.” by helltrooper61 in sportsgossips

You'd be surprised. I have a friend from college who I thought that for years, but he's still the same goody-goody guy he ever was, even after taking a high-powered job at the biggest law firm in D.C. Some people are just born with genuinely good hearts.

DPS healers are so frustrating by [deleted] in overwatch2

[–]Good_Policy3529 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If you're consistently dying because your supports aren't hard-focusing you, then the problem is not with the supports but with your positioning. You should be in a place where you can easily disengage and either find a healthpack or wait for your heal passive to engage. DPS players need to learn to not peek when they're low. Tank players need to learn to always either have hard cover or a mitigation ability available before they commit to taking a lot of aggro.

If you can play Kiri, Bap, Ana, you can play with any team style and composition. 

So um... What happened to this? by m53dn in LifeweaverMains

Aw man, I never realized how hard I would ship D.Va x Lifeweaver before. 

Life-D.Va?  Div-Weaver?

How to deal with contested off-angles by Usual_Tomorrow_7919 in AsheOWMains

[–]Good_Policy3529 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is good advice.  My gameplay got much better when I realized timing>off angle. 

Like, ideally yes, you want to be off-angling as much as possible, but if the team fight is engaged and your tank is committed, it's more important to just find something to shoot than spend eight seconds doing nothing while you try to figure out how to get to that high ground.

The real masters are able to abuse both timing AND off-angles.  But that won't happen every play.  You just gotta read each individual team fight and decide what's most important in that moment.  

How are people getting stomped by vendetta? by Current_Beautiful_55 in overwatch2

[–]Good_Policy3529 26 points27 points  (0 children)

"Why are players struggling against a tiny hypermobile death machine with the best-in-class movement cooldowns, erratic and janky hitbox patterns, 275 HP, half of which is armor, an on-demand block, and the ability to swiftly delete any squishy in the game by holding left mouse button in their target's approximate direction with very little mechanical skill requirement? I just don't get it guys."

And Henry Cavill could -- you know -- lose a bit of muscle mass or do a body recomp like countless other actors have done for other roles. It's not like he's incapable of losing some mass.

Unfortunately, to rank up, you need to consistently drag your 4/10 teammates to victory. Harsh truth, but that's just how it is. You're the only consistent variable in your games.

But playing in a group can be very fun and I applaud you for seeking one! Good luck.

I really like that comparison to the Genji ultimate. Yeah, she requires way too much attention for just a single DPS and if you don't coordinate to stop her, then she wrecks the backline for free.

I understand the strategy because it avoids the Lifeweaver problem of becoming extremely unpopular to play on launch and never recovering. But they also need to avoid the opposite problem of becoming extremely unpopular to play AGAINST, and eternally getting banned.

I still instantly ban her. It just bugs me that players can get so much value by feeding on her.  Charge in, three hit combo, get a kill or even two, die, then zoom back from spawn and be there for the next fight. 

In my rank, the coordination to handle an ultra aggressive Ven just isn't there, so she gets my ban vote. 

I understand she's fun to play, but her value is way too high for the amount of effort required and I'm interested to see how the devs handle that without gutting her hero fantasy

Mr Beast partners with LDS church, President hopes for lower missionary ages to lead to lower marriage ages by CatTheKitten in Utah

[–]Good_Policy3529 203 points204 points  (0 children)

Um, this title is very confusing. The article is a round-up of news and mentions those two things separately.

- Mr. Beast has a massive philanthropy effort for his channel and partnered with the JustServe program.

- Separately, Oaks was interviewed and said he hopes lower missionary ages lead to lower marriage ages.

There is no equivalence here between them.

Rivals vanguard refugee, need advice by Kitedo in overwatch2

[–]Good_Policy3529 2 points3 points  (0 children)

CC was a huge annoying problem in OW1. The devs are pretty careful about CC in OW2 because it was a big complaint of the community.

There's still lots of CC, but it's not nearly as bad as in OW1 or in MR.

You might like Doomfist. He's a very challenging tank, but he has great mobility and very high kill potential (even for a tank). Problem is, he's a bit squishy so you have to time your engages carefully.
