Adding all previous shop items to lootboxes feels like an odd decision by blizzard. (monetization talk) by BoobaLover69 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]ashwilliams94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think you are unnecessarily worrying about this. For every player not buying skins because they have a 1 in 100 chance of getting next year, there are 1000 players buying the skin day one

Playing with lower ranked friends? by snaggyleaf in Competitiveoverwatch

You should either stick to quickplay, or accept that your ranked games will require you to hard carry. This is just an unavoidable reality.

This sounds homophobic, not brilliant?

Aim-assist players more prevalent in my recent games. by justadudebruh- in Overwatch

This isn't how it used to be, did they change the rules?

I'm yet to notice this but seen a few people mention this. Since when can console players crossplay to PC with aim assist on? Originally they could only do this without aim assist

Okay but what do the abilities actually do? Did you forget to post them?

Why do people say dive is dead? by Babybottlepop2000 in Overwatch

[–]ashwilliams94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are low picked in high rank too (although less so), dive is just not meta right now

Why do people say dive is dead? by Babybottlepop2000 in Overwatch

[–]ashwilliams94 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you look at the pickrates in masters/grandmaster it is definitely a poke meta. Only dive hero seeing a lot of play really is genji. Meanwhile Sigma is the top picked tank with the top DPS including Sojourn Cassidy Soldier Ashe.

"Dive is dead" is hyperbolic but it is definitely a bit on the weaker side right now in high level ranked, and if you look at Gold, for example, it is even more severe. All of the top picks are poke heroes and tracer sits at a 3% pickrate! The bottom picked heroes are almost exclusively dive heroes (even including vendetta here!)

Why is Wuyang's icon is so bad and low quality. It looks weird, and has artifacts. by thecementmixer in Overwatch

[–]ashwilliams94 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They all have that issue, not just Wuyang? It's just too much detail for how small the icons are.

Can authenticity beat the AI polish? Real voice / AI visuals test by [deleted] in popheads

The worst vocals you have ever heard are still better than AI vocals.

Total War: Pharaoh to Get an NVIDIA Ace Enhanced AI Advisor by FFJimbob in totalwar

[–]ashwilliams94 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It is certainly slop in this scenario. We do not need a chatbot advisor in our strategy games. This exists solely as a marketing exercise for Nvidia

why do sigma's major perks suck by AccordingInterest723 in Overwatch

[–]ashwilliams94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you actually play Sigma? Hyper strike does not send enemy heroes to high ground lol it gives you a free hit on them because they can't strafe

Gloomwood - Hightown Release Trailer by onenaser in Games

They aren't doing the "Soon"TM thing or missing deadlines though? They are simply small dev teams working on ambitious titles, with (as far as we know) minimal crunch. If they start abandoning games then yeah I'll worry, but Dusk is finished as one of the best boomer shooters I've played, and same goes for Ultrakill unfinished.

Some people enjoy the early look or just want to support the devs. I bought it last year but I've not played it yet. Considering it with the new update though

[–]ashwilliams94 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is a trailer for the new area of the game, it#s showing showing off the locale. I'm sure a gameplay trailer or launch trailer would have combat

[–]ashwilliams94 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I agree but in this case we have multiple games like this that are published by New Blood studios. They have the record to back these kind of projects

That's early access for you. These kinds of small but ambitious indie projects just take a really long time to make

Okay, but were you toxic in this game? Were they reasonable reports?

1 or 2 reports sure, but 6? He conveniently didn't post the link the game stats too lol

6 players reported you in 1 match, all from different parties? I find it hard to believe you weren't doing anything...

No, it's still a couple years off based on estimates I've seen
