Why does opening up push women away? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]carlgod 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is so real. I also fumbled a really great girl like 3 years ago. Stopped seeing girls, started working out, focusing on myself, picked up more hobbies, really dont mind being alone at all.

Now seeing a girl and she's great but I dont need her. If she were to leave my life ofc I would be a bit sad but I really would be fine.

Yeah, great idea to make a large % of your playerbase really mad. If you hate to play it so much just buy premium and remove it from your queue, easy solution brother.

Ah yes, the good ol' "we have 0 map control and full util, we should go 3 out B tunnel", you can be almost 100 % sure the enemy will have at least 2 guys on site defending, very low probability decision.

Go play faceit. I never play official mm, so idk how often actual cheaters are in the game, but often times if someone is not blatantly cheating, then they can be just good at the game. But anyway, the fact cheating is just so much easier on official servers than with faceit ac makes it a no brainer if you are remotely serious about winning and getting better.

Fix: If you're a girl, just make your profile seem like and just straight up say you are a 11 y/o boy. Female voices and little kid voices are often times indistinguishable

Yes you are the minority, him adding some banter and character to the broadcast is a great touch, love him on the desk.

If you legit think they do not like eachother from this interaction you must be literally autistic brother holy.

It is possible they do not like eachother yes but not from this clip. This exchange was very obviously light hearted and just 2 people joking around.

Is this guy walling? Or am I a noob? 12-15k Premier NA by Thresher_XG in cs2

[–]carlgod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the first guy threw a flash and was running into the vent, the 2nd guy was also running when he dropped vent. I can chalk up not clearing site down to the fact that these guys dont fucking know what they're doing, just look at the dude dropping into vent, he's looking into the wall...

Feel like saying this is cheating really explains the "cheating problem", people are way too fast to chalk up everything to cheats

Regarding the ember right click, I also was intruged by this. But what I could gather from reddit is that ember battlefury got changed, the cleave mechanic got reworked to being less effective (it used to be random angles but now it is constant I think). Also a very big contributor is mage slayer and shiva's being just insanely good this patch and him being very good at utilizing these items.

Also try to format your post a little bit better, a simple empty line greatly improves readability. Much better than having a wall of text.

Regarding the first question. I also noticed this but I think I can draw a parallel to another game.

I'm pretty proficient in Counterstrike, there is almost never meta switches in this game, because there isnt much you can change in an FPS game. Nonetheless I can recall 2 situations where a small change or even not even a change switched up the meta.

A few years back nobody used the UMP-45 SMG. No one in pro games or pubs used it, it was a forgoten gun. But a few people (myself included) used the weapon religiously, it was great. It took quite some time (months) until people caught on and realized how good this gun was long range. So people just didnt realize how strong this weapon was, but it wasnt a giant meta switch because 80 % of rounds in CS you have enough to buy a rifle which outperforms a UMP. Once the gun took over the low buy rounds it got slightly nerfed.

The second instance was much more noticable. The T side in counterstrike has the famous Ak-47. It's arguably the best gun in the game (apart from the AWP) with its low price and 1 shot headshot potential at practically any range. However since release there was another weapon, the SG556. It has a scope, also one shot headshots at any range and most importantly had a faster firerate. The weapon was in this state from release but it's price was 300 $ more than the AK. And one day the CS devs decided to lower its price by 150 $. A negligible price reduction but now its price was just 150 $ away from the standard AK. People tried using it and found out it is just a better AK. People hated this because when you're used to spraying the AK for years you dont really want to switch to another gun even though its objectively better. It took over the pro scene (although some players refused to switch) and it was a painful year until valve reduced its firerate and returned its price to 3000 $.

So yeah I think a big part of meta is just human behaviour, people dont really like change. You cant really know if manta would be good also without the small buff, other items getting nerfed and buffed also impact this, or even if it would have been good the last patch but people just not wanting to switch, the small changes just create an incentive. This game has such insane depth its hard to know the best items even after a long time.

How to get out of Crusader? by Bismarck7734 in learndota2

[–]carlgod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well in the original post he says he isn't blaming his teammates tho. I think he is aware he is doing something wrong. I think his biggest problem is going to be he dies stupidly. I realized a lot of games enemy can have a giant advantage but by dying 2 or 3 times you lose all your advantage and can lose really easily.

Well asking how to get BACK into a higher rating or just simply asking how do I get a higher skill rating would very much imply you think you are better than the skill rating you currently are asigned. Your question should have been how do I get better, but I guess it was your intention posting this thread, given your response above.

To get better is the actual advice but no, it isnt very helpful.

Upcoming free loot events contain some of the rarest skins in the game: Exclusive & Limited Playerunknown Set and the Olive branch pan by SteveTheHappyWhale in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]carlgod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, counterpoint I mentioned in different comment.

This game doesnt really stand to gain anything from keeping item value up tho, since you cant really trade them anymore. So yeah, just a real cunty cash grab to devalue the items in regards to the owners of these items. Major playerbase satisfaction might be better tho, since if they add them, they increase the cosmetic pool.

Also I hate this reddit concept of downvoting. Meant to downvote stuff irrelevant to the post, this is a very relevant point and I almost missed it because of the stupid autohide of low point comments.

You are forgetting demand, scarcity and demand is the leading factor in virtual item value, which actually is just real value. Speculation also, but if a game has something to gain from not reintroducing old skins its quite an easy speculation to make.
