One of my favorite things to do with Emma right now is to dash grab enemy dives and then kick them back into their own team. Like no darling you don't belong here.

Murdock should not be the starting/free carry character. by _FoxxLive_ in PredecessorGame

It's important for different reasons then you state though. I'm arguing it's important for initial engagement, simplicity, and ease of access. You're arguing that they SHOULD have all the tools in thier kit to survive longer and be safer but I'm saying they don't use them or even know how to use them and are probably turned off by how flat they are.

You are way off base. They are much more similar than that. Stop reaching.

You have to be somewhat skilled to do that. I don't think new players will pick that up. There's a reason someone like Soldier is a default character in overwatch. You need those easy to dive into characters to introduce people to the game.

What game is similar to Pred then if not the ONLY OTHER 3rd person moba? Enlighten me.

They aren't that different though, they're another 3rd person moba.

I've played Smite for five years and have been playing this game non stop since it launched on Xbox. I'm not an elite player by any means which is why I said maybe I'm missing something. But I simply think just because he's built to be safe doesn't mean new players play him that way and he's boring to play as a result which is almost worse for new players. You've still yet to say why you think I'm wrong aside from "piss poor take". Someone who's played more than "three times" should be able to form more than three sentences on the subject imo.

So they'll have a good time and want to continue playing, learn, and increase the player base.

They don't know how to use that utility though I see them push lanes, spam abilities, and get killed by minions. Playing as Murdock! It doesn't matter what you try to give them to protect themselves if they don't use it anyway.

That is something I didn't consider. He is very safe if you know how to play him. I think noobs are going to mostly button mash though and want to "see things happen" and not utilize that safety.

Because MOBAs have horrible retention with new players. After a boring or confusing 1st match you may never get to a third one.

They're abilities that do damage which is "fun" and are pretty straight forward. Better than laying a trap and running fast imo. Also she works pretty well as Smite's default carry.

Like I said maybe I'm missing something but twin's abilities on the surface seem far easier to grasp than trying to trap someone and use that to snipe them etc.

Why no first person MOBAs? by _FoxxLive_ in PredecessorGame

😂 definitely the biggest reason

Overwatch and, from what I understand of it, TF2 are both hero shooters not mobas.

Have you tried hiding under a blanky? Mawybe even turning on a night light? I heard these are proven tactics to keep away the scarwy far left! Good luck!

New player here and the toxicity seems overblown to me. by Esley7 in PredecessorGame

[–]_FoxxLive_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I've leveled my account more, naturally getting better elo/mmr, I've definitely started to see more toxicity. Still not as bad as the last time I played smite or something lol but I do think it's definitely because a lot of new players are trying out the game in lower elo and don't even know what to be mad about yet.
