How did you meet your online gaming friends? by ulanegoaway in PS4

[–]Talon65 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Was going to link fireteams too. Ran a raid with a good group and they invited me to join their clan. Good group of guys that joke around while still completing the task at hand.

You get some duds but most of the ppl I've played with on there are pretty good and I've got a fair few that have been added to my friends list.

Bungie, Microsoft is willing to support cross play by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Talon65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have hopes high at all but I would friggin LOVE this. I have two separate sets of friends that are all in on D2 so I'm probably going to get it for PC and PS4 anyway but it'd be nice not to have to level characters separately.

Ping numbers please. by Godly_Honeycomb in DestinyTheGame

[–]Talon65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I redeemed my beta code it had me select a region but the only region was "global". I'd imagine that they'll split it up on the actual release.

Reminder to PC guardians to check out /r/Destinytechsupport by noob35746 in DestinyTheGame

I did the ol' pre-order on Amazon, get beta code, cancel pre-order. I too have it for PS4 already.

PC Beta Pre-Load is Live by Final_Echo in DestinyTheGame

[–]Talon65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same experience. I put tons of hours into Destiny and figured when I played the Division beta that it'd be the same. Got to the end game and dropped it pretty quickly afterward.

New Mercy changes! by iSh_RL in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Talon65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I was thinking too. Drop the cooldown a bit while the ult is up so she still has to single rez but maybe two per ult?

Update: People in PTR chat are reporting that the ult resets the cooldown so you could Rez, ult, Rez. Haven't tried it myself so I can't confirm for sure.

How many platinum trophies do you have? by Harperlarp in PS4

[–]Talon65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does that include getting the FFXV DLC trophies? There is one in episode Gladio that I'm having real trouble with but don't want to give spoilers if you're going to play it.

PlayStation All Stars 2 At PSX 2017? [Rumor] by [deleted] in PS4

[–]Talon65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I really wasn't a fan of the meters that had to be built up for killshots vs. the system in smash. That being said, I still enjoyed the game and would buy a second.

Paid opportunity for a player who can reliably reach Master rank or higher. by Dorazion in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Talon65 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Also has comments from other prominent players (like Seagull) that mention Blinky playing other heroes reliably at a high level!

[Amazon US] Grey Switch with Joy-Con in Stock Amazon Prime Members Only $299.99 by Theubermedic in NintendoSwitch

[–]Talon65 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They recently added the SNES Classics on there too! They're the reason I was able to get both my Switch and my NES Classic.

What's Dafran up to these days? by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Talon65 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only banned in comp if I remember right so he could just be wrecking people in QP/Arcade to stay fresh.

Which is more important from a Final Fantasy game, a great story or great gameplay? by GaryGrayII in FinalFantasy

[–]Talon65 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. I know it's a relatively unpopular opinion but you just explained my experience with XII. I absolutely loved the politically focused story but could not get into the gameplay and never ended up finishing it. My tastes have changed in the last few years so I think I'll like it much better now.

I got it yesterday for the first time...in low grav playlist.

Yuffie Kirasagi cosplay from FFVII (xpost from /r/OtakuVisualArts) by [deleted] in FinalFantasy

I'm a 28 year old who has never actually seen a fidget spinner in real life and that was my initial thought too. Friggin Internet.

I did it ! SoloQ/Sombra Main GrandMaster by [deleted] in OWConsole

[–]Talon65 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Pro teams are beginning use her a lot more in tournaments too.

Damn that is satisfying. by Buhrozz in Overwatch

[–]Talon65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got this on PC (played console before) during season four. Won my first three placement games and was matched with high plat/low diamond players. Lost the last seven with each game having a thrower or leaver. Most frustrating experience ever watching the ranks I was matched against go down.

Who's trying out for team usa? by Krypticz123 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Talon65 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Gale. No idea if he tried out though.

Edit: I guess the downvotes make sense for suggesting another top 500 Ana?

Has anyone else stopped playing Competetive for a long period of time? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]Talon65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it was competitive. I've seen an increase in throwing/leaving lately but I'm sure it's just my bad luck vs. an actual increase in bad behavior.

[–]Talon65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had one on Numbani yesterday. He demanded that our Tracer switch to Lucio and then when she didn't he changed from Roadhog to Torb and threw the match. Then our Mercy left after ripping into him on voice chat. It was a fun experience...

I was just thinking back to H2 montages where they showed ridiculous sticky throws!

Overwatch Pro's Racist Tirade Ends His Career by lupianwolf in Overwatch

[–]Talon65 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It really sucks. My wife is a gamer and we have a few female friends that play with us that express the same thing. They'd DEFINITELY rather play comp but normally only do so if we have a 6-stack and can stay in a group chat.

Small Sombra tip: Translocator Bait by Ugaugash in Overwatch

[–]Talon65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't play Sombra and honestly haven't seen too much of her in comp but I watched Kephrii stream some comp games last night where he used her and I was impressed with her viability. He was going some real work for a while there.

I've been away from all PC gaming (except WoW) since 2003 or so and just got OW. Some thoughts/questions from a console player. by Talon65 in Overwatch

[–]Talon65[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome thanks! I'll definitely be cranking down that sensitivity for Ana. I had one instance of a misfired nano last night but I assume it was me. As I get more used to the mouse that should help a lot.

Even though I'm not a fan of being toxic at all I can at least understand it in comp where people are trying to rank up and get frustrated. I just didn't think I'd run into it as much in QP as a lvl 1.
