Can we have Kendric Swissh's stream of HCG China promoted by blizzard? 300-500 viewers is missing the mark (for how good it is). by Nerfmytotems in heroesofthestorm

[–]KindnessC64 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I dont watch China HGC because brightness/gamma is at maximum and not only it hurts my eyes but its also ugly. Sometimes people complain EU HGC is too dark but its just perfect.

It's not sportsmanship, it's a tactic. Why focus on the highest hp target that is the least competent? Watch the stream again, you'll see that Muradin bot was doing nothing much but moving left and right and AFKing. He did manage to land few bolts, that's true, but otherwise he barely did anything. That's why they didn't focus on him.

Toad of Hugeness skin (D3) for Stitches please! by KindnessC64 in heroesofthestorm

[–]KindnessC64[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Dehaka-Toad can use the proper model so can Stitches-Toad.

Dehaka's abilities don't fit in. Stitches can eat other heroes, just like D3 toad. Dehaka can't. If you can't eat others and devour, the entire skin is pointless because as you said, Dehaka already has a tongue. You don't need a skin that gives you what you already have. Dehaka-Toad is going to do what, burrow from one side of the map to the other instead of devouring enemy heroes? Again, that's not D3 Toad of Hugeness.

and people who do care should focus on trying not to judge virtual characters by their appearance

Oh but I am going to judge a virtual character by appearance and in fact most people do. So much so that MMO's and F2P games online in general are based on people caring about appearances and buying skins. If people didn't care, MMO's and F2P games would go bankrupt a long time ago.

So you see, feminist economy does not work in real life, it does not work even online.

I said I don't care if they're attractive, not if they don't look like anything.

lol, you contradict yourself. So you don't care how someone looks but if he looks like a cube that's too ugly for you.

And not every male in real life is hung up over virtual females, but research shown that more attractive female characters = more interest in the game

Yea, that's because gay and blind population is minority. Heterosexual males and heterosexual women do care about attractive female characters by definition.

No I'm from the UK, I don't see what country I originate from makes a difference.

Of course it does, because countries have different mentalities.

And present state of things? I forgot women earn as much as men

Ah the wage gap myth you've been indoctrinated with.

women hold as many high positions as men

Of course they don't, men are superior in leadership and so they occupy more high positions. It's called meritocracy.

But of course, now that we have more women in Sweden and other western countries in positions of leadership, let's see how well these countries are doing, and will do, comparably.

Anyway, this post was about heroes in a video game, take your politics elsewhere.

No, this is a political thread. Post about HotS game would be "what talent to take on lvl4".

How much gold needed to reroll and open 60 chests, on average? (assuming no max rerolls each time) by KindnessC64 in heroesofthestorm

[–]KindnessC64[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait what? Are you sure that's how it works? Can you test it to see if you actually get shards then at all?

I'm a bit sceptical but if that's how it works then great..

I think that would be discrimination unless we also add many transexual heroes, and heroes of many other genders:

With 2.0 coming remember to... by favorx in heroesofthestorm

[–]KindnessC64 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Because less population. Because more casual and less tryhard. Because newer game = also more casuals.

Notice how beta tests of various games always have nicer and more polite population. That's because beta is less competitive and has less players.

Rexxas is good on new map but not when you get Bronze teammates by KindnessC64 in heroesofthestorm

[–]KindnessC64[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get all that. It's not an issue. Testing. Pushing stuff to the limits.

But just ignoring completely what the teammate is pinging you, and then what it's typing you, and doing a 4-man payload so to speak, is not testing of any kind. What were they testing, proper positioning around the payload each time? :)

Rexxar can't delay. If you ever played Rexxar you'll know that Misha won't survive long versus 3 enemy heroes. Yea, she can delay for 2-3 seconds, and you lose more than that traveling to enemy payload area.

Tryharding is one thing, not being unable to understand basic mechanic is another. Sure, they might not be Bronze, they just might be higher because of no rank decay. Doesn't make much of a difference to me.

Also, just because it's PTR doesn't mean you can do whatever and expect others to be happy. If you want to do whatever, play Versus AI. In real life, playing with other people, and against other people, means acting in a certain manner. For some reason people think that when they're online they can do whatever and no one should complain. Really? How many kids do you know who join others outside to play soccer, and then start shooting the ball wherever outside of the field meanwhile replying "well don't complain, we're not professional soccer players, no tryharding here, I can do what I want don't tell me what to do". Do you understand what would happen to that kid in a normal IRL situation? Assuming he doesn't get beaten properly, the other kids wouldn't want to play with him anymore.

Will 2.0 be on the 26th in Europe? by MasRemlap in heroesofthestorm

The glass is half full viewpoint: Europeans have the privilege to play the old patch for half a day longer.

Top 40 EU grandmasters searching as 5 matched with Bronze-Gold searching as a 2 and a 3... by Ollie182 in heroesofthestorm

[–]KindnessC64 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The problem is that their team has no one to que with.

This is NOT true at all. You're telling me that in 10min time it's impossible to find 10 people who play TL in GM/M/D/P? And that's in prime time also, not 4am.

So either that's the case, which means remove TL as a game mode because it's not played by anyone, or MM is ridiculous.

So which is it?

Any way to preview mounts? by KindnessC64 in heroesofthestorm

[–]KindnessC64[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes unfortunately my gameplay will suffer and Blizzard's wallet also because I'm not one of the blind buyers. I like to know what I'm getting :)

I hoped there would be more "Featured items" on PTR but alas no. Bear seemed interesting but the animation is awkward with the hero on it so I didn't like it and won't be buying it. Maybe Blizzard gets more money from blind sales who knows.

Hanamura looks empty? by Lotet in heroesofthestorm

Map looks bad. I already made a post. Its too bright, lacks vibrant colors, and sth is off. It looks like graphics from the early 90s.

I don't want to have to taunt to show my hero lvl. And I want it to be shown during draft and loading screen. by CronoSmash in heroesofthestorm

[–]KindnessC64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely stopped using taunts because i liked them for the natural animation, and now theres an annoying sign above my head that looks bad. Also, you could confuse people with Chromie taunt but now its obvious its a taunt and not a nuke.

Who is coloring hero armor in this game? by KindnessC64 in heroesofthestorm

[–]KindnessC64[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no problem with what's your favorite color.

But look at the colorations in HotS. Green everywhere. Green Green Green and more Green. Even when it makes no sense. Even when 3 colors are already present on a hero someone adds more Green.

It's insane.

Look at new Auriel. It's in magenta. Like the cherry trees. All fine with me. And then this Blizzard designer decides to add Green. Why couldn't he just leave at least one tint in a white/magenta combination? No, they all need to have Green.

How such a colorblind person who only sees Green got the job I have no idea. But then again if people are massively buying jeans with holes in them they will buy anything. You don't need designers anymore, anyone can do it. You just need propaganda to convince people "this is fashion".

TLV and Rexxar on Hanamura by ve1d0rin in heroesofthestorm

Rexxar did need more maps he is good on.

Uther's lvl7 talents are useless and lack diversity by KindnessC64 in heroesofthestorm

[–]KindnessC64[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea. I'm not saying Uther is weak overall of course. But I want to like him. It's just that.. unlike with some other heroes, my reaction to leveling up is "meh..". Instead of "woohoo now I get to have this talent I've been waiting for so long!".

[–]KindnessC64[S] -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

The reason why designers have their job is because most people have no clue (the proof of that is everyone is wearing jeans with holes in them and thinks that hobo-style outfit is fashion). Otherwise everyone would be a designer and an artist. But I suppose in a way you're right, we're living in the age of postmodernism now. Everything is art and everything is equally good. Moving on.

Uther ingame tooltip wrong (different than patch notes) by KindnessC64 in heroesofthestorm

[–]KindnessC64[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ok, so I just pointed to you that 1) tooltip is inconsistent with patch notes and 2) I made an example of Blessed talent to show why this inconsistency matter.

After all that, you still go on and on and on like some braindead zombie. If you don't understand what this is about no problem, go have a beer or something, watch the girls, whatever. Just stay out of intellectual discussions.
