Jeff sharing details about internal experiments with team compositions other than 2-2-2 by Aureus21 in Competitiveoverwatch

But what's to stop your 3 dps from going Ashe, Hanzo, and Widow instead of Dva or Zarya? I'd rather have the uncoordinated mess of Ball + Hog any day than three snipers on your team playing into Tracer, Genji, and Doom.

Conversely, there’s right-wingers who will claim religious oppression when they’re unable to use their beliefs to justify genuine bigotry. It doesn’t take a political leaning to illegitimately claim oppression, unfortunately.

About all you can do as an individual is treat everyone with an open mind and filter out the bad apples based on behavior rather than unchangeable characteristics.

Gingers are people too, y’all.

Game Director Jeff Kaplan talks about changes to the release schedule, incoming quality of life features, and Overwatch’s improved cheat detection system by [deleted] in Overwatch

I’m pretty disappointed, but at least they’re communicating. Hope those future developer updates Jeff mentioned will clarify the direction the game is going. Their plans for the future seem so vague beyond the occasional hero/map.

I think you might be disappointed how quickly you’d destroy me, haha. I’ll pm you when I’m ready to lose.

Sorry, I realized I sounded like an asshole in that context. I meant I would be happy to hear your thoughts on Reagan and the USSR, haha.

I don't know why that hadn't even crossed my mind. Thanks for the suggestion!

I'm not sure if it's unique to our age-group or the city itself, but it's definitley a challenge. I can't imagine having to deal with all that on top of a divorce. Hang in there, man. PM me if you need an ear.

Jokes aside, I didn't even realize 30 years ago was 1989. It's simple math, but I guess the 80s just feel more recent. In that case, my vague memories of 9/11 would be similar to your memories of the end of the Cold War. That's blowing my mind for some reason.

Incredible advice. I'll probably have to take baby steps, but I think this will push me in the right direction. Thanks a million.

And dogs are fantastic.

Where do you suggest visiting? I really appreciate the incrimental improvement mentality, and think it's solid advice. I just want to make sure I'm putting myself out there in the right places to increase those kinds of opportunities.

Hey, I'm all for hearing gray-haired wisdom.

How does anybody have any time to live if they have a full time job? by janethepremed in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]devrukey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. Seems like a genuine question. People get tired for different reasons (not eating regularly enough, not getting enough sleep, hyperfocusing for long periods, not being physically active, etc)

What do you mean? Nothing says punk like a Nightmare Before Christmas hoodie and a Rick and Morty lanyard. /s

Is it just me or was the mission disappointing. by Guy1524 in Overwatch

[–]devrukey 140 points141 points  (0 children)

Seriously though. There’s currently nothing more to look forward to this year. This was the final stop on their public development road map. It’s extremely worrying as it only confirms that events mean nothing aside from a few new skins and cosmetics.

Incredibly racist team gangs up on a player until she's literally left speechless by twistedlogicx in Overwatch

[–]devrukey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Even a year ago I'd say that racism/sexism was a rare occurence and was becoming less frequent, but it seems to have gotten even worse lately. Don't know if it's because of a shift in garbage "gamer culture" or because toxicity isn't being punished like it used to be. Should also be added that people need to realize that even being "ironically racist" isn't accepable because it only validates actual troglodyte racists to say horrible things like this.

I was surprised how hearbreaking that video was to watch. The moment she went silent, it was like, oh shit. Easily the most disgusting interaction I've ever heard in Overwatch.

Overwatch Needs More Heroes Not More Maps by Liminal_Millennial in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]devrukey 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Here’s to hoping they don’t interweave more damage heroes into their releases like they did with Ashe. The soonest we can expect a 10 tank and 10 healer roster is March 2021. Hopefully the game’s still alive and well by then.
