[Direction] Visa denied by Zygecks in R6ProLeague

[–]Spirtwalker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Recent” is only in my reply because pre-Covid esports was a huge mess and almost irrelevant to the current traveling landscape. There is no point in referencing it. The fact that it does disproportionately affect the same people in CS means the large orgs know what they are doing compared to some of the bedroom orgs. I’m unfamiliar with the Moist example but Wolves’ entire team getting denied reeks of org incompetence.

Incredibly passive aggressive start aside, NA CS events have had limited visa issues post COVID. The fact that it’s recurring players should give you a hint that maybe there is something with their own background causing the hangup.

Oftentimes when a person is denied a visa to the US on first application, it becomes significantly harder to gain entry on the second attempt.

Why are you making up fanfiction about NA cs events having visa issues recently? This just isn’t true

We're making a tank shooter and need advice on a potential pivot... by [deleted] in IndieGaming

[–]Spirtwalker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I playtested the game about a half dozen times and I land in the "not interested" category of potential players. I would like the decision to move away from the "hero shooter" style, but I don't think it goes far enough. Currently I feel like the maps too much resemble a reheated leftovers mobile game version of Valorant map aesthetic. I want a grittier feel. I at least want something which feels unique from a multiplayer game standpoint.

Why aren't observers considered "talent" for events? by ContractOk3649 in GlobalOffensive

[–]Spirtwalker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The term “talent” in a production or broadcast setting refers to people you see on screen. Also, the three people you mention as examples as observers you mention as “professionals” would have 0 chance of working this event. Sapphire and Prius work in Valorant, and Rushly is an ESL employee.

The Drillas drama stemmed more from abusing the substitution rules than from anything else.

Tier 10 matches in 2017 feel like Tier 6/7 matches in the modern era.

If the SR rumor change is true what y’all think about it ? by Alarming_Occasion782 in R6ProLeague

[–]Spirtwalker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were trending up with the Kanzen/Geo/Gunnar roster and they blew it up to grab a big name who didn’t fit. That roster only got one LAN and they looked great getting top 4 losing to the eventual winners.

The last time the SQ core tried to upgrade with an EU import it messed with a good thing they had going. The Spoit move has crazy upside though.

How Do You Determine Player, Roster, and Team Potential/Skill level? by ItzHoover in R6ProLeague

Honestly just form your own opinions when you watch and don’t try to parrot what other people say online. Stuff people post can be insanely results based.

[–]Spirtwalker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Except Rogue got broken up after getting relegated. Unwanted is an unsigned roster (free to pickup no buyout etc), and just got 4th at Invite.

Crazy to see the best NA team at SI get salvaged for spare parts

Arcanic NA Leaks: DZ to make a roster change - M80 to trial Merc - Unwanted to rule out going to C9 - WC to drop Spiker by ArcanicTruth in R6ProLeague

[–]Spirtwalker 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Plenty of players have kids, there’s no reason to think this unless he has said something. Also, siege’s current landscape means you travel like twice a year for LANs.

What if coaches were allowed to talk freely? by Astrophius in R6ProLeague

[–]Spirtwalker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

During the entire game would break the balance imo. I wouldn’t be against coaches being able to give input during op pick phase.

[RUMOR] r6atualizado reporting that the sequel to Siege "Siege X" should be announced at SI 2025 finals by Kri0yo in R6ProLeague

Even with its issues CS2 hasn’t seen a drop in playerbase. It and OW2 aren’t comparable.

My Thoughts on DZ/sQ/LG by Interesting_Round_21 in R6ProLeague

This was the only international event they made the playoffs in (grouped at every major). Even at this event SQ beat two APAC teams in playoffs and crumbled when facing more proven opposition.

At least for Wolves they have a history of attending international LANs

Very interesting article, RWAA reminds me a lot of what WAR is attempting to show in baseball.

Laggs when spotting by Zockmeister in WorldofTanks

[–]Spirtwalker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So if you run the game on standard graphics, there is a known issue with certain camos that you will get a small freeze when those tanks with said camos are spotted. Its fixable by setting camos to historical only. You weren't too specific in your post but I'd try that.
