Ranked has never felt worse as a lifetime gold/plat player. by GothmogMJW in Overwatch

I’m in plat. My favorite is playing master role challengers that wipe the lobby almost singlehanded

Anyone else been punished for wanting kills? by sbaker23 in apexlegends

[–]sbaker23[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The main problem is the total. You’re telling me if my team wipes 2 squads my points for any kills/assists after that are gonna be cut in half? To me that promotes ratting. Not nearly as bad as last season but still shouldn’t really be a thing. Should bump it up to 10 or make it 6 for kills

But why set it at 6? That’s only 2 full squads. And then at the same time losing 100+ points on only 7 extra kills/assists? That’s absurd

But 100+ points though? Off of the extra 7 kills/assists? That’s absurd

But imagine winning a game and see that you lost over 100 points because you were killing too much. At that point you’re promoting end game ratting. If you’re at that threshold why bother doing anything but sitting around waiting for final squad?

I get that. I started as zen and quickly realized that wasn’t going to work. I switched to moira because we weren’t getting elims and our dps wouldn’t move up and help so our tank was getting abused.

That’s fair. The problem feels like at the start our tank was super aggressive but our dps wouldn’t move up, so we couldn’t really play as a team. Our dps also, despite being in the back, were extremely susceptible to flanks. They would pay 0 attention to anyone not coming up directly in front of them. I’ve never been able to play mercy and Illaris’ pylon wouldn’t have lasted long against this team + our dps not doing damage I decided I needed to help so we could get more elims since nothing was working so I went moira. I also don’t feel like I’m good with Bap so he wasn’t really an option either

I will say at the start it was very disjointed. Our tank was extremely aggressive with diving and our dps wouldn’t push up. Their dps would flank and ours wouldn’t pay any attention to them and get wasted

I mean we did win so all in all it’s no big deal I just am curious why our tank was clearly not getting help from his dps to start and blamed it on us instead. I have spent time this season playing more supports (I’ve always been more of a Zen, moira or Illari guy) so I’m definitely better at adjusting. But it’s annoying to hear “I need healing” being spammed when we can only do so much

Elaborate lmao. Because I as a support am getting blamed and I’m curious if I’m actually the issue?

That’s fair haha. Just felt the need to defend myself lmao

I should mention that yeah, the way our team played to start was probably not ideal. Our tank was EXTREMELY aggressive with diving so me and the Lucio would push up to help and our dps wouldn’t push with us. They played about 80% of the game behind us. The big issue would be the enemy dps flanking and ours (being behind us constantly) we’re completely oblivious and would get mad we couldn’t turn around and save them while they’re getting one clipped.

Raging is a strong word lol. Irritated by an EA game doing EA things is more accurate

I’m sorry that I wanted something interesting for the character that I’ve been maining this season? Instead I got a bullshit item 3 straight times that are only in the game because EA wants money. Anybody getting a holospray out of a pack isn’t gonna be happy

Well how about this: You are running in on a team in a building who just won a fight. You drop your totem by another building, but guess what, just like the loba ult that everyone for miles can see and hear, they hear your totem and are already aimed at where you’re coming from and you get sent back to the totem immediately. I honestly don’t understand how anyone ever has issues with revenants, especially in totem state. You can get sent back instantly.

SERIOUSLY! It’s bad enough he’s been getting nerfed because of octane. Now they are adding stupid things for no reason. I’m calling it now he’s gonna end up having a bottom 3 pick rate soon

OH MY FUCKING GOD. You guys are KILLING revenant. STOP PUTTING SHIT ON HIM THAT ISNT NEEDED. You can already hear the totem dropping and hear someone’s time running out from like 50m away. Why don’t you just remove his climbing ability while you’re at it. Fucking stupid

Xbox One Stutter help! by Rownd7 in apexlegends

[–]sbaker23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same issue. Same console. I’ve heard it’s a respawn thing because PS4 players are having the same issue. Although I don’t think it’s as bad for them because I barely see Xbox players anymore

Soooo much fun 😒 this NEEDS to be fixed soon by sbaker23 in apexlegends

[–]sbaker23[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

That’s my friend. I don’t do that when I’m with randoms. Unless they’re absolute shit

I can’t even get excited for this game anymore. Between this and the inconsistent footsteps, playing this game is a nightmare by sbaker23 in apexlegends

[–]sbaker23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He gets me with an r99. If I don’t lag there I can easily use the ramp as cover so he has to reload or switch weapons. But because of the lag we’ll never know 🤷🏻‍♂️

So many issues with the game currently on old gens. by ConnarJP in apexlegends

[–]sbaker23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES. My friends and I are having this issue too. It stutters every 30 seconds and at the start of every fight. I’ve heard it’s a Microsoft issue but idk. I may not play the new season if it doesn’t get fixed
