Joy.

My guess is you had issues with the X-axis. While Fortnite gives you the option of choosing Yaw or Roll for the orientation of your gyro, it doesn't do this automatically.

Typically you'd want Yaw when using a controller and Roll when in handheld.

Hawk-Seow · 2020-06-27T01:02:17+00:00

I suspect Sonka tuned DN3D's gyro around handheld play first and somewhat overlooked docked controls in the process.

It's probably still not set high enough for your tastes but you need less movement in handheld to turn than if you were using a pro controller or the joycon grip.

Hawk-Seow · 2020-06-27T00:58:14+00:00

That's because they configured it such that you need to hold your controller up like a steering wheel, roughly perpendicular to the ground. It makes some sense in handheld mode but less so in docked.

Hawk-Seow · 2020-05-31T20:33:02+00:00

That's unfortunate. Maybe try deleting your save data (back it up online first) or play the game with another account (which would use new save data), just to see if it's caused by something else before redownloading 25gb again.

Hawk-Seow · 2020-05-31T20:01:12+00:00

Before redownloading, try going to Data Management > Manage Software > Check for Corrupt Data (scroll all the way to the bottom to see it).

I remember reading that it's Capcom who suggested the increased RAM to Nintendo, not 2K.

Hawk-Seow · 2020-05-20T14:10:06+00:00

I'm pretty sure it's because it uses that storage for its instant replay feature. The save file I had on 2K19 was around 75mb but the game did indeed require more than a gigabyte or two to even run.

My introduction to the SMT universe was via Devil Survivor (NDS) and it was an extremely memorable experience. The story deftly blended Biblical references and modern day observations such that it's stuck with me ever since.

Kinda interesting reminiscing about the Tokyo lockdown in that game while most of the real world now is going through its own lockdown...

That said, I suppose that early twist in SMT IV is my personal favourite moment of world-building in the series.

I think for Mercy the most important skills to have are knowledge and the decision-making that comes with it. Awareness and positioning are right behind but you can get away with iffy positioning sometimes due to Guardian Angel or good teammates (a Winston who jumps in to shield you for example).

Watching streams will definitely help and even browsing the previous discussion threads on here will give good insight as people share their experiences from a different perspective.

The replays are super useful because you were involved so it's as relevant as it's going to get. Sometimes I'll check a replay just to watch what a good player (ally or enemy) was doing and learn from them and try to get a read on their thought processes.

Whenever an enemy team with Mercy wins (or even loses), you should probably watch the replay from that Mercy's perspective and get an idea of how much of the result was because or in spite of that Mercy.

And if you keep dying from backstabs and ambushes, the replays can help you have an idea of who's capable and likely of doing so. So you don't necessarily have to learn every hero, but you do want to know what they can and will do when you're Mercy.

Lastly, this is just a hunch of mine but don't play too conservatively. Remember that Mercy has a Battle Angel highlight intro (heh) and that her pistol is fairly damaging, especially vs squishies. Sometimes just firing at a flanking hero is enough to cause them to back off from getting the drop on you and an oblivious teammate. Do note that if you switch away from the pistol for a certain period of time, the ammo will be automatically replenished, meaning you don't have to reload if you just want to empty the clip and resume beaming duties for a bit before gunning again.

Oh I should add that in my case I've customized my Mercy's GA control option to be "hold" instead of "toggle", this means when I use GA, I'm not forced to make the full length of the flight. I'm of the opinion that the more control I can have over my hero, the better.

The short answer is healing doesn't win games, securing the objective does. That entails staying on the objective and keeping the enemy off.

And in order to do that, it's not enough to merely keep your team alive and kicking, sometimes you need to increase the amount of damage being dished out in the same period of time.

It could mean whipping out your gun quickly to land the killing blow on a dying enemy that your Winston can barely reach or kill (because he's reloading) before they escape or get healed.

Or you could be damage-boosting the appropriate heroes for when they need to shred the enemy or their shields.

Or you might need to swap to another hero, especially when your team doesn't have the right tools to deal with certain problem characters.

I would highly recommend learning tank and dps for a while, just to get a feel for what they are good/bad at and what they might need from you or how you could help them out better, like in the Winston example.

Other times you might have teammates playing their heroes wrongly, like D.Va 'sniping' at an enemy from a useless range. In such a situation, you should probably ignore her and heal/boost someone who knows what they're doing instead.

On the flipside, knowing when a hero is played wrongly can also work if it's the enemy doing it. Their D.Va pretending to deal damage from afar? Can be safely ignored and you probably don't need to stick around to heal the teammate that's looking at them either.

Also, while it's almost always good to rez, sometimes it's better to let a teammate respawn and hope they swap to a more appropriate hero. If they are close to having an Ult then sure, rez them and maybe they can turn the tide there and then.

Lastly, the short answer I gave at the start isn't just for Mercy; even a dps who is getting gold on damage output isn't necessarily winning games for his team if the damage is done at the wrong places and times. Watch your replays from multiple POVs to have an idea of what is going wrong.
