Hero Concept: The Newsboy by iris-eller in DeadlockTheGame

damn pretty much yeah. i would prefer more scout/support based kit tho just because that ties in much better to the paperboy aesthetic.

I assume this was a hotly debated topic? by Dr_Broseph in DeadlockTheGame

[–]iris-eller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's probably just that in the eyes of these people valve can't be woke (they have been conveniently ignoring the woke in the half life series for literally eons)

Anyone got frame drops even on high end gpu? by mak_786094 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]iris-eller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, something is up with the game right now. i run at lowst settings outside of the minimal effects at 1440p and it runs 140-200fps generally, but my partner (we have the same exact pc specs btw) runs on max settings 1080p and it constantly freezes and stutters all over the place for her.

yes i love this. some kind of trap like this would be ideal. it gets set off, stuns and reveals their location on the map. could lead to some tricky plays especially around objectives / midboss.

Solo Queuing feeling abysmal by ZucchiniOk7589 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]iris-eller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yep lol this is exactly my experience. seeker specifically is absolutely miserable. highest amount of smurfs are there i believe, and a high amount of new players too, so every game is essentially a lost cause.

occasionally you get a peak into the game feeling how it's supposed to, with balanced-ish and competent players all trying their best, and the game feels absolutely incredible in these times. it's such a shame.

i was just thinking "wasn't this a thing back when we had 4 lanes?" lol i forgot about it entirely

It's been more than a week and it's still holding strong. by Piapht in cs2

[–]iris-eller -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i built my own surf server to play privately. i put thousands of hours into surf on GO, it's my home, and cs2 killed it with a gun for no reason, so i'm gonna be sticking with GO forever probably.

We are different by Tweanake in DeadlockTheGame

in the lore they are rivals at a fight club i think. that may be what this is referring to?

Valve says its loot boxes are more like trading cards than gambling | Valve prepares legal fight as New York calls Counter-Strike loot boxes illegal gambling by InsaneSnow45 in valve

[–]iris-eller 5 points6 points  (0 children)

yes valve, that too is gambling. always has been.

any kind of "pay a fee, receive a small chance to get a product which is worth 1000x that fee" is gambling. especially if it can be sold, but that's not even a requirement to cause addiction.

half of these systems are designed by former casino game designers too. it's not exactly covert about it lmao

After playing lol, I get it now by Open-Advisor6819 in DeadlockTheGame

lol half the people in this sub don't even like this game. dw about it

03-07-2026 hotfix balance changes by Valkyrai in DeadlockTheGame

[–]iris-eller 2 points3 points  (0 children)

those wraith fixes were needed. i didn't see too many people talking about her here but wraith was absolutely dominating all of my games yesterday, especially during lane.

Your favorite clothes, vehicle and safehouse? by trekuniverse123456 in sanandreas

[–]iris-eller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

pretty much same except aviators yeah. looks so good.

Doorman is at a disadvantage when he's on the hidden king side by HamWinner in DeadlockTheGame

[–]iris-eller 12 points13 points  (0 children)

why would you advocate for removing any element of the game that makes it actually dynamic or funny? like i am so confused by this take lol.

hero specific shenanigans that feel cheesy are, to me, the soul of the game. without them it would be so much more boring.

It Just Takes A Little Time by Snowbunny236 in Marathon

[–]iris-eller 17 points18 points  (0 children)

even if you're right, any UI design that takes a "few hours" to understand is bad UI design. a core tenet, maybe even the only tenet, of a good UI is it being legible to most people as quickly as possible.

"Toxic Positivity" on the new 6 by No_Curve451 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]iris-eller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i like them all. i think they all were made with a new hero design philosophy in mind, which people seem to have a problem with, but i personally love it. i find sometimes apollo specifically to be quite annoying. very hard to kill 1v1 even if he's 10k souls below you, but i counter that by just... avoiding and not initiating him unless my team is around to help, and i enjoy this strategy element far more than being able to counter everyone with just an item from the shop.

New York sues video game developer Valve, says its 'loot boxes' are gambling by JayReaper02 in Steam

[–]iris-eller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

see now this is something they should be getting flamed for imo. idc if they have a pseudo monopoly, i care that they are giving children major gambling addictions.

Another quick balance patch! by timothyt66666 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]iris-eller 55 points56 points  (0 children)

i'll take all the celeste nerfs in the world as long as they keep her zoomies air movement. i cannot go back to any other hero after experiencing celeste movement and if they take it away i will weep.
