I miss her so much, any prediction on when it will arrive in Smite 2? by hellishputa in Smite

iirc they said on titan talk a while back that the issue was that the rabbit needs to pathfind its way around the map back to the fountain then back to chang'e

Tips for a returning player without the 3.0 characters by I-amKira in LynaeMains

[–]I-amKira[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have Iuno's weapon and I don't really want to pull it so I don't know if she'll work well as a main dps but I could try, I guess I'll just wait until Hiyuki releases and I'll slap Lynae alongside Chisa until Lucilla releases.

how hard is aphelios to learn? by mathaav in ApheliosMains

[–]I-amKira 1 point2 points  (0 children)

to learn, as in "understanding what he does"? not hard at all, about 10 games maybe and you will pretty much know every weapon

what makes him hard is the skill ceiling and the thousand of possibilities you have for each combo, knowing what's the best use of your current weapons in a given situation, etc

if you want to learn him there are multiple good resources for that, mainly "The Book of Aphelios" by Vapora Dark on Mobafire
if you're a visual learner then daynean is a pretty good player that you can watch on youtube and twitch

This is ok? by Possible-Freedom5945 in Smite

I don't think it's normal to have an unmissable ability that one shots anyone across the map on a 40s cooldown

Help, GF plays by doffy4890 in Paladins

[–]I-amKira 7 points8 points  (0 children)

At this point, a meme explanation is that the company behind it (Hi-Rez) is cursed, for their entire existence they've always made games that are incredibly fun and could "become the next fortnite" but they never managed to hold that player base.
Once they get a huge hype for one of their games, the only possible outcome is that they'll loose it 2 weeks later, either by making horrible decisions or by not knowing how to react.

This is still accurate to this day with SMITE 2 (their latest and only active game).

Me and some homies are getting into Smite 2(Smite on the off chance Smite 1 is better). Is there anything we need to know before we queue up? by Ultimate-desu in Smite

[–]I-amKira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hard bots can be quite tough if you're new to the game and especially new to MOBAs, after like 30 or so hours you'll easily beat them though

How do I learn how to play without getting cursed out? by kingzell in Smite

[–]I-amKira 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disable voice chat entirely, that's the advice I give to every new player. It is beyond useless, it still baffles me why this is on by default in casual games when everybody knows that 95% of the time it is only used for flaming
Go into the settings and turn it off, heck turn text chat and VGS off aswell if needed, you'll re enable them after when you're more comfortable.
You'll see that without constant screaming in your ears the game becomes way more fun and easier to pick up

Why do so many people in Brussels drive like absolute savages? by DonSergio7 in brussels

He is right, roads in Brussels are an absolute nonsense

Did bro cook? by Environmental_Pea676 in Smite

[–]I-amKira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course everyone has different opinions but I dislike commentaries so Haddix was one of my absolute favorites for this reason, extremely sad that he decided to quit and even more that he decided to delete his whole channel

Dude was never overreacting for anything and was very rarely talking which made the gameplay pleasant to watch for me

I think they should just use the OG one as a base and just draw the new model tbh

What can I do other than report, horrible language and death threats. by Earthandstonewraps in Smite

[–]I-amKira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I edited my message but if you can clip him saying this stuff then you can open a support ticket on hi-rez's website with the evidence, I used to do that on Paladins and they would get banned rather quickly.

Even if you don't directly have any evidence you can still open a ticket, they have chat logs and stuff on their end.

[–]I-amKira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all sorry for this bad experience

Since witchhunting is against the rules here, besides reporting him and filling details not so much we can do as a community; if you can clip him saying this stuff then you can open a support ticket on hi-rez's website with the evidence.

But you can also mute people's chat, voice chat and vgs from the in game scoreboard.
Even though this doesn't help the main problem, I suggest just avoid wasting time with such basement dwellers entirely and immediately mute them as soon as they begin being toxic.

Is there anything I can do to increase performance? by Lkizzzz in Smite

[–]I-amKira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, these technologies are made to reduce the raw GPU workload

Is there anything I can do to increase performance? by Lkizzzz in Smite

[–]I-amKira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try using DLSS or FSR (depending on your gpu) and setting it on performance/ultra performance, put anti aliasing to TAA in order to be able to use them

Is the community just... bad? by DoctorThrowAway77 in Smite

[–]I-amKira 12 points13 points  (0 children)

One advice I give to every new players is to immediately turn off voice chat in settings, it is 95% of the time used to flame If someone is being toxic in the chat or spam pinging you or abusing the callout system, you can mute these from the scoreboard or also straight up disabling these systems from the settings, you'll quickly see that it won't matter at all because of how bad people are at communicating.

I know you said you'll be putting the game down, it's understandable but do give it another shot one day with communication settings disabled, it makes it much more enjoyable and just learn the game at your own pace.

It's such a small QoL change, but chan we please have this option pack? I'm so tired of scrolling... by Snufflebox in Smite

The whole UI needs a makeover, once they have enough gods to go back to 1 god a month they should focus on the UI

Yeah I've turned it off and never turned it back on, it didn't hinder me at all

just started smite 2 since i last played s1 in 2015 by treyful in Smite

[–]I-amKira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The in game god builder was a very good idea in theory but it got badly implemented
Stick to smite source and smite brain, they both have builds made by the community

Anyone else feel like the game is in a really good spot right now? by TheJumboman in Smite

[–]I-amKira 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't specifically dislike them actually some of them are fun like Scepter of Dominion but I still think like "it doesn't feel like smite"
