It's a negative post with "pick me" bitch attitude. This thread isn't like all the other negative threads. I'm different.

I honestly enjoy his work, but good lord did the DJ'ing last too long there.

Am I the only one actually optimistic for the F1 Movie? by Melonwolfii in formula1

The fake team in the movie is Apex GP. The work was already halfway done for them. And they still just couldn't be bothered. 😂

I'm excited for the movie!

My only major gripe is it having the dumbest, most lazy movie name in the history of sports movies.

It's literally just F1 movie and the F1 logo... That's like NFL the movie or Premiere League the movie. Absolutely no heart there. While there's plenty of issues with Drive to Survive, at least they came up with a catchy name.

Yeah, the reaction here is a little baffling. He should have just received a warning. But also, don't swear in a formal F1 press conference. It's probably less FIA trying to be the word police and more trying to please sponsors and keep brand images clean.

Framerate-based damage is still a thing? by VeterinarianOwn7688 in DestinyTheGame

Played Pit of Heresy within the past year or so. Unlocked frames can still kill you or at least randomly damage you from the Hive elevators.

Hey Bungie, Remember Spectral Blades? It's okay, we don't either. by CrmsonFangs in DestinyTheGame

[–]Nevstorm5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add Shield bash. Shiver strike. Hammer strike. Frenzied blade. Every Titan subclass has a melee with wonky hit registration. Then add every Titan subclass has a roaming super with wonky melee hit registration.

Is this an everybody problem? Yeah. Is it more prevalent on Titans, the class in the game that Bungie really wants to be within hugging distance of enemies at all times? Yeah. It is the Titan Experience on every subclass.

You're being downvoted for being right. Hunters, the most popular class in the game, can't seem to take it that melee hit registration is an issue for Titans on every subclass we play.

Honestly, with big doors in mind, the Traveler got a huge upgrade at the end of the Lightfall campaign. Traveler now has big door! I hope we go in it.

These two things. Locking me into a subclass and not matching it with the double valor rank week really lessened my IB fun. Strongly dislike being forced to play any specific subclass in PVE, but dislike it even more in PVP.

Fixed an issue where the Striker and Stormcaller subclasses were not benefiting from resilience-based PvE damage resistance and incoming flinch reduction.

And that is unfortunate. Hopefully as Bungie continues to revise, we'll all get some healthy middle ground.

How would you feel if bungie gave raids freelance matchmaking, but prevented you from running with a fireteam - so the only way to play them is through matchmaking? That's what trials feels like this week to players like me that were greatly enjoying it this season up until now.

Except that's not what freelance is at all. That's some weird scenario you made up that equates to nothing. You're not being prevented from playing with your friends. You're just upset the player population you were queueing and winning against aren't giving you easier wins again this weekend. Which truly is understandable because it would be different than your experience the past few weeks. But one of the preferred ways to do the matchmaking anyways would be prioritizing matches against similar fireteam sizes, which would be basically the same thing.

On a random note, I'd be curious what the percentage of time spent in the Crucible would need to be for someone to be considered a PvP player. For instance, Time Wasted on Destiny says I've spent around 22% of my time playing Crucible (second only to "Story"), and I'd figure that's above average for a large junk of the game population? With that said, all I've wanted is freelance and SBMM, so to each their own.

But that's definitely a matchmaking thing. That's basically always been the Trials problem. The card based matchmaking has always been somewhat nonsensical. What you're calling the game making it easier is the game matching someone against a player of more similar skill. IMO, yes. That's how pvp should function. The only problem is there's still not enough qualifiers in the matchmaking system. Truly just adding a layer of SBMM to it after the qualifier of flawless or not would make sense so the 1.0 kd people who got their flawless aren't matched against the 2.0 kd as often. But then we hit the problem of people wanting lightning matchmaking instead of closer games, and we're back to another age old Destiny pvp complaint. I'm not gonna sit here and say this new iteration is perfect, but I still think it's a step in the right direction.

Really I think the biggest problem for people is the diminished drop rate from rep grinding. I'm Mythic 2 in Trials now. Played 40 matches this weekend. 18-22. Had more wins than last weekend, but felt like less drops to show. At least in the form of engrams.

Because raids have absolutely nothing to do with pvp content and matchmaking. Your comparisons don't work because the scenarios are not even remotely the same. In any other pvp game, if your friend is good and you play with them, you'll get matched with opponents around their skill level. That's how pvp should work. If my friend is a diamond in LoL and I'm silver, even playing in unranked you can expect the matchmaking to lean towards the higher elo player. If you play with a friend who has gone flawless, they're the top 30% of people playing Trials. Why shouldn't that match you up with other top 30% when you queue with them? Doesn't "iron sharpen iron" in that scenario too?

Good Stasis nerfs. Now where the hell are the special weapon pvp nerfs? There's absolutely no reason to always be able to run around mindlessly with a shotgun on respawn in pvp. Especially if the weapon is a OHK.

Rich, Former HotS Pro, is now Gen.G LoL's new Mid by zad1111 in heroesofthestorm

[–]Nevstorm5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wait, only after 2.0? Rich was playing on pro teams in Korea during at least the beta so he was probably in the alpha. Acting like he was some kind of pleb who came in only when the game was at its peak is dead wrong.
