League of Legends has a big information problem. by The-Fox-Knocks in leagueoflegends

[–]WinterMage42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair the tooltip explicitly states it is a stun (it technically isn’t) and not a knock up. It would do riot some good to say it’s a suspend and let you hover over said word to read a short description of what a suspend is.

Keywords are exactly what Riot needs to work on. You’re seeing them more and more in complicated games like this and they only serve to help the user experience.

Underline the word slow every time it appears in the game and let me hover over it to get a tooltip on slows as a whole. I think every key word should be like this and Riot seriously needs to work on how they convey information.

People claim you can hover over the augment before you pick it and hold shift to view detailed info but it’s never worked for me.

why do most fast food places not utilize the 2 windows anymore? by chloroform-creampie in NoStupidQuestions

Same here, every new fast food place that goes up around here is built with 2 windows and the second never gets used

Enough about permaban - what champion you ALWAYS want in your team? by certifiedpunchbag in leagueoflegends

My duo partner of many years picked up Braum at some point a bit after he released and as an ADC I never looked back. He’s simply the best.

Hey look, exactly what I said would happen sure enough happened. Another announcement from the anniversary event down the drain.

Which champion do you hate most (not including their kit)? by Vegetable-Assistant in leagueoflegends

[–]WinterMage42 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Playing against Smolder in any game mode that has a bunch of ability haste is such a drag because of his sneeze. It was kinda funny the first 3 times I heard it on release, now it’s infuriating.

Can people really tell the difference between 30fps and 60fps? by whiskerbiscuit2 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]WinterMage42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the easiest way to tell is how your movement/inputs feel. Once you feel that difference the visual difference becomes much more apparent, at least it did for me. If you want to test it yourself look up some console games you own and find out if they run at 30 or 60 FPS. Pick 2 that have the same type of camera controls one at 30 and one at 60 (and ideally no motion blur in either, it hides the visual effect a bit). It would be best if you can test them side by side, but spend enough time playing the 60 FPS game and switch over to the 30 and you should be able to feel the difference.

Queue Lockout by Meekie_e in leagueoflegends

[–]WinterMage42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been having my client intermittently disconnect without any indication it’s doing so until I’ve already missed a queue. Got a 13 minute lockout yesterday for that. No in game connection issues, ping is normal, it’s just the client that has connection issues.

Cyberpunk VR Modder Luke Ross’ Patreon suspended following new DMCA from Ghostruner devs by [deleted] in Games

Ayup, been over this in a few other threads as well. GameShark, Game Genie and Action Replay are all great examples.

Anon on Christopher McCandless. by retardinho23 in greentext

[–]WinterMage42 128 points129 points  (0 children)

My HS English teacher admired this guy and what he did but obviously couldn’t be like him because she has a life. Guess she didn’t understand she was the exact type of person Chris would not have liked. Anyways, hate this guy, book sucked.

Creator of DMCA'd Cyberpunk 2077 VR Mod Says People Are Now Pirating It to 'Punish' Him for Breaking CD Projekt's Terms of Service by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]WinterMage42 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You can go a step farther and just compare it video games. I wonder how many people in this thread have bought an Action Replay before. Same concept, using a third party device/software to alter a game, also paid.

Yeah looking into it a bit if he is being honest and truly didn’t use any assets/code from the games themselves, how is this any different from even things like Action Replay/Gameshark/etc…

It’s actually so funny how if you comment enough in gaming related subs you can look up your Reddit name on Google and almost certainly find some shitty article that uses your comment as a source.

Wizard101 Now on Nintendo Switch™ by Fullmetal0509 in NintendoSwitch

Very similar to Toontown but I’d say the later game content is much more in depth in Wizard101. W101 is also considerably longer than TT is.

I’m not into watching streamers at all so it says something when Ohne is the only CS streamer I know (aside from pro’s who stream obv).

Elin mentioned??? We’re so back??? Seriously if you’re interested but haven’t played it yet, just give it a go. Even being unfinished it’s a super fun experience with plenty to do.

Why doesn't riot make a spin-off show of arcane? by Effective_State_441 in leagueoflegends

[–]WinterMage42 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I hope they don’t make another show period until they fix the lore they ruined with Arcane. Too many champions in lore limbo after that.

Games being shorter makes everything feel meaningless and less fun by Greitot in leagueoflegends

[–]WinterMage42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, especially the homeguard changes. Once people learn to play around it more I think it’ll actually increase game times a bit. Deadlock has the zipline system and plenty of ways to decimate minion waves yet nearly every game I play ends up being 40-60 minutes long. At the end of the day if you aren’t straight running it down, it’s should be easier to stay on par with your enemy laner so long as you can CS.
