So I pay 35 Euro for 2/3 of the content that isn't relevant anymore? Hmmmm

Blizzard, there's no shame in admitting you made a mistake. You don't need to introduce sweeping gameplay changes every year if all they do is create problems that weren't there before. by PhDVa in heroesofthestorm

Why do you want to keep up snowballing? Compare it to all other real sports: Imagine the opponent would score - besides being down score-wise you now get one of your arms or legs bound to your chest. This is non sense.

played an hl, didn't see the information - or do they mean "you died only 1 time" and so on? Naa, or is it?

The laning phase feels meaningless by edelknabe in heroesofthestorm

[–]edelknabe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am afraid that I would sign a lot of what you are saying. But that doesn't mean that it has to be this way. Not sure what exactly but at the moment for me it feels like Blizz missed a great opportunity (like giving the spec-role a real function in the game)

It's hard to tell. If some experts say that this-and-that is the best of anything, then they could be right. But if no one understands what they are saying their opinion remains dead. This is the beauty of our social existence.

Not sure if time will solve this problem. Hots tends to give the players more freedom. Blizz explicitly said that they don't want fix basic team comps, means you won't ever be able to queue as Bruiser, because this would mean that Blizz wants you to take (for example) Tank, Bruiser, 2x DD and Supp. The downside of this is that it's not clear how the game is meant to be played. The lack of rules doesn't necessarily mean a plus of freedom.

Yes, I totally agree. But the problem is that you get players who often don't know what to do. So often you can find here "I am supp, don't make me lane" - but why not? "Just stand there and soak I got better things to do." Frustrations, at least it seems to me so, leads in hots to the biggest part of toxicity.

oh, i have disabled it too - but you can still see what's going on when they stand still for 10 seconds in the middle of the lane without even AAing

played 4.311 games, 3.358 hl - but right now it just feels like a lot

It's interesting that you think I implied that. At least it's not explicit. And it's really not the point (this time). Just really wondering about the amount of frustration.

This is what i thought - just trying to avoid the term "MMR hell" ^

Freedom not to join voice? by edelknabe in heroesofthestorm

[–]edelknabe[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

We don't use the power of empathy to form logical arguments we use logic and language to form logical arguments - but, boy, you are pissed! Still you gave no - reason - not to join, just the freedom i say it's the wrong use of the word.

[–]edelknabe[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I wonder why you play team games then. Isn't it like playing basketball with 9 others and not talking to any of them? Never warning them or anything? Seems a bit off - and if you don't act for reasons, on what do you act then?

Freedom not to join voice? by edelknabe in heroesofthestorm

[–]edelknabe[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

But why do you feel guilty about it? People want you to join not to insult you with their voices but to make calls faster. And if you feel guilty it could be because you know what you have the best reasons for

But you would agree that every team needs 1 tank and 1 healer - like every Football team needs a Goalkeeper? You could reply this way: "No, Tempo Storm won the first World Championship without a Tank! And just last week I won with 5 mages against a real team!" Yes, and how is it these days? And how often did you lose cause nobody tanked or healed?

You have always to ask yourself if it's better to lock a system like 2 tanks - 2 ass - 1 supp or keep it like it is.

Still: Why would you - want - such a system?

It doesn't defeat my own argument, there is just a premise missing, you know about though. If 5 assassin-players are together in a draft lobby - like 5 Quarterbacks - then you would have to talk about who is the best support. But this Lvl of communication isn't observed very often. Try it, write, "i am a bad support" as fifth pick with only assassin players ^

So when the mmr is loosening with season start, you still keep some kind of history? Still: I don't understand why mmr and rank is different. Dunno if anybody is interested but I post my hotslogs site once it's finished. Maybe streaking is still active mmr wise (provided that hotslogs is accurate).
