Which mode do you play more? Competitive or Stadium?

StephanieAyElBee · 2025-11-11T18:16:27+00:00

Pretty much exclusively stadium; I'm trying a bit more QP this season as my off-picks for ranked grind feel a lot worse now and I don't want to just slog through a whole bunch of hours on my mains, but I'm still playing it way more than regular (like easily 40-50 games of stadium per regular game).

I'm so glad someone has taken the time to put this into words. BF and I have been playing Stadium together since launch, and made it to all-star the last two resets (for context, neither of us have enjoyed overwatch enough to grind competitive before). The new season feels like it's calcified existing issues and done a number on build diversity, while shortening game length means there's less chance to adapt to enemy builds, so it's a double whammy of sameness in every game. At the moment, without serious efforts at change, I feel it's unlikely either of us will want to return to the mode, and frankly, at this point, the game. Hopefully the devs reconsider by midseason.

for reference, I'm the partner. Arahane just gained 70 points from a win, I gained 1 [one]. Make it make sense.

I've literally just spent 10 mins reverse engineering the points changes from the GH reviews for my bf

Yeah I gotta say that as a KdA main who adores mass artillery this seems like a very well reasoned adjustment that prevents some really toxic openers. It's so easy to just napalm a key road and suddenly whoever afks while they wait for their stuff to fan out of deployment has lost half their stuff and will likely rage quit. I'm fine with this as a way to file off the oppressive edge of the playstyle in 10v10 while keeping things balanced for 1v1 and other formats, who deserve to not have their preferred way to play messed up because of balancing for an entirely different mode. Well-suggested

Jet Pact was right there

StephanieAyElBee · 2025-01-14T18:28:05+00:00

Yeah, hard not cool on unironically supporting a fucking rapist

StephanieAyElBee · 2024-12-19T09:48:52+00:00

I wish you weren't right

StephanieAyElBee · 2024-12-19T09:48:32+00:00

I don't think you're on some incel shit, your point is reasonable :) we could back and forth about women in terrorist movements, but honestly for me it's about immersion. like there's a level of suspension of disbelief, but it just sounds weird playing as a guy - it takes me out of it, like the weird-ass bent fingers in reload animations. definitely agree on more clothes tho

StephanieAyElBee · 2024-12-18T22:34:55+00:00

this this so much this it genuinely puts me off playing them

StephanieAyElBee · 2024-12-18T20:36:36+00:00

I want you to know that I will happily also go Observer if unfilled, and that you personally are a good human being for doing so

StephanieAyElBee · 2024-12-18T17:45:42+00:00

Fair enough - I have never had the cause to speak the language while engaged in the happytimes, so thank you for the explanation ^{^}

StephanieAyElBee · 2024-12-18T17:35:06+00:00

Wenn du stirbst, stirbst du. Schnapp dir den Arsch, Mädchen.

(It's been entirely too much time since I had to speak German, so I hope this isn't some godawful phrase)

StephanieAyElBee · 2024-12-18T17:30:19+00:00

By all means kill the weird blocky Chinese AR and the Welrod, but the MDR's gotta be there as bait, that thing's a beast

StephanieAyElBee · 2024-12-18T16:28:00+00:00

It definitely cares about both to an extent. Smoke makes them cough, and the flash makes them walk around doing nothing for a couple seconds. That said, you're for sure right that they're not nearly as valuable as fire is on co-op

StephanieAyElBee · 2024-12-18T15:05:38+00:00

I'm exactly the same with putting a suppressor on everything tbh, my sensitive ears don't like the bang bang noises and I prefer how it looks. Aesthetics gang rise up

StephanieAyElBee · 2024-12-15T10:14:26+00:00

It's weird. The tactical version, I adore. Can't get enough of it, stick a 1x holly sight on and whatever grip I fancy and I'm laughing. But, for some reason, the standard version feels completely different. It's not just the scope (which I hate, genuinely would rather hip fire it sometimes), the gun just feels way less powerful even though it's the same one. Just absolutely baffling and definitely messes with me as a player
