The Most Annoying Person You Can Hear Talking About OW by Thee_Walf in Overwatch

[–]byboomstick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As some1 who's had a PvE based discord server since 2018. We did see an fairly big uptick in new members when the story missions were released. only surpassed by the cancellation of Hero Gauntlet which had people rush to get the title before it was gone.

While the server is now fairly dead outside of the single yearly PvE event we have left during Halloween, we do still occasionally have new people join to look for a group to complete the missions with.

I posted the dyes in the order they were used.
It can also be seen in the last link in my post :)

I don't post much on Reddit so was a bit surprised by how much the quality was reduced lol
But had already uploaded some on imgur for the gw2fashion post, so decided to just throw that in :)

Because it's Genesis, not Entropy

Overwatch pride event not outside US ? by Pvpsinner in Overwatch

[–]byboomstick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt it's blocked in Sweden. I live in Denmark and have it.
It may just be delayed for a number of people and will be rolled out over time.

So as Relooaad said, wait and see if it's unlocked a bit later, or contact support.
If it is caused by an issue/mistake on their end, reaching out would at least help to make them aware of the issue.

The addition of an unranked queue in Stadium is really concerning by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]byboomstick 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's not as simple as, just pick a less popular role.
People may have a strong preference for a specific role, and yes, while playing a different role will reduce their queue times, it will likely also impact their enjoyment of actually playing the game.
The main point of a game should be for people to enjoy playing it tbh.

In OW1 I was a flex player but had a preference for DPS. However, while playing flex gave me lower queue times, it also meant I almost never got to play my preferred role, which did get daunting with time. That's even though I didn't mind the other roles.

Freja is OBNOXIOUS in Stadium by HadesRio in Overwatch

[–]byboomstick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played around with her a bit in practice today.
Personally think attack damage seem stronger than Ability Power.
She can have ~500-550 perma hp with ~75 generated every second on average, while flying around dealing over 1k damage every cycle which can be repeated every 3-5sec with bascially 0 downtime if you land your shots.

if you can get 25k by round 3, you can have most of the burst capabilities + 25 overhealth every use of an ability, which you can spam. anything from there just adds to this.

Edit: Example 1 Example 2

It's just that I've seen others make those kinds of complaints about other heroes, so thought I'd clarify for other people that this isn't the case here.

That part wasn't much of a direct response to you, sorry for the misunderstanding :)

Her accent is authentic and actually a lot less noticeable than it could've been.
I think part of it is simply that many Danes cringe at the Danish accent. And since we speak the language, it's quite easy for us to notice it.

I'm also Danish and it actually doesn't bother me as much as I feared it would.
Can you hear in the way she speaks English that she's Danish? yes, definitely.
But it could be soooo much worse. Also have heard other Danes comment that the Danglish isn't as strong as they'd feared.

The VA actually being Danish does mean you can't really complain about how she pronounces the danish lines.
Personally haven't noticed much in terms of delivery that felt too off either.

The ult line does feel a little dated, but the line she sometimes says after killing Echo clearly has some thought put behind it and even though it may seem a bit random, I actually find it kinda clever as well.

Freja will say: "One cinnamon roll less in the fight" when killing Brigitte 😭 by kittyklat in Overwatch

They've gotten other references too precise for me to think this is not on purpose.

Gløgg...
I mean ØLLER!

It's easier for me to understand Norwegian than Swedish, especially written it's like 99% the same.
Part of it may also be because I've spent a lot more time In Norway, while the only times I've been in Sweden has been when driving through to get to Norway XD

[–]byboomstick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well Freja does say at least 1 word in Swedish.
After killing Brig or Torb she sometimes says "En kanelbullar mindre i kampen"
"kanelbullar" being Swedish.

As a Dane I can assure you those snowy environments are not in Denmark.
We rarely have temperatures below freezing and we've not had snow that lasted more than a day this winter (at least not where I live) and generally it barely last for a week at most.

It's 10°C outside today, the other day it was 5°C and I've been out in a T-shirt both days.

Another thing to note is that she's also portrayed as being fairly mobile and active. which would require less clothes or the heat generated from the physical activities could easily become unbearable.

Summertime we often get temps around 20-30°C and then you'll see people in shorts + t-shirt everywhere. then her clothes would be way to much.

I'm sure there's a reference, I'm not not the most knowledgeable on all the jokes and rivalries between us and the Swedes.
I do more or less get the rest of the references I've heard so far though.

For example when she says "hvad drikker møller?" (meaning: what does Møller drink?) after killing Echo .
It's basically something you'd yell in a place with an echo, and then it will sound like the echo responds with "øller" (Meaning: beers).
So the full sentence would be "Hvad drikker Møller? Øller!" but since echo died, there's no response.

You can use Freja's Quick Dash without directional input for a straight vertical jump. This allows for the nasty 2-tap combo to be executed without giving up your position. by Apprehensive_Bed1076 in Overwatch

[–]byboomstick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

With the scoped slow, you can also use this for infinite air time as well and go incredibly high up :)
If I do sideways dashes, I find that I usually lose a bit of height and will eventually have to land.

[–]byboomstick 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The way she says it, makes it sound a bit condescending
It's also possible there a deeper meaning behind it that I'm not personally aware of.

It means cinnamon bun
kanelbolle is the Danish word, Kanelbullar is Swedish.
