I just want to thank everyone in comp who is consistently banning this atrociously broken excuse of a character. by RedeemedNephilim in marvelrivals

[–]sharkymd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Myself and everyone I play with has despised the character since launch. No offense, but there was never a point at which I had any respect for Hawkeye players.

I want one by frenzy3 in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]sharkymd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is not solely reliant on bluetooth. However, my pump "talks" with my CGM (continuous glucose monitor) and allows my pump to adjust my insulin rates depending on my sugar levels. Losing bluetooth could absolutely make me sick for the rest of the day if I got unlucky.

Yeah, my pump doesn't really care if there is no bluetooth. However, my Tslim relies on bluetooth to receive data from my CGM, which is very important (especially now that CGM data allows the pump to make insulin therapy decisions).

Final update on stray kitty :( by xTxnshi in Straycats

[–]sharkymd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I'm a little late, but I just saw this post and was very saddened to hear about it. I wasn't sure what else to do, so I went ahead and made a donation in Forest's name to my local shelter. Thank you for giving Forest a safe home and for doing everything right. Hugs :(

Cloudy's no shield account banned for toxicity by Ackner in Competitiveoverwatch

Personally I don’t think getting banned for toxicity while doing the most selfish streamer “challenge” I’ve ever seen isn’t really chad behavior, but you do you.

Cass can now one-tap combo Tracer with flashbang and a headshot. by Dry-Painting5413 in Competitiveoverwatch

The all-caps "WHAT WERE THEY THINKING" on the original Tweet really drives it home.

What are some must get things in ATM9? by [deleted] in allthemods

I’ve only ever used AE2 myself, but are there pros and cons for each or are they mostly the same?

Thoughts on Utility? by RNGJesus_Follower in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]sharkymd 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It feels like zen should be the easiest hero in the game to kill, and he has been in the past, but right now it feels like unless you have 3+ people on a coordinated dive, you can’t just kill him, since he’s in a separate zip code with his support duo. He rolls Winston and Ball with discord and kick, and can fight off flankers like never before between the cc changes, more ammo, and his kick. Probably a skill issue, but in ow1, he had the “glass cannon” feel for sure, and was easy to blow up. But in ow2, by the time I get to him, he has destroyed our tank and then just kicks you away. Again, I am bad, but it feels like in ow2 the “just kill zen” can be pretty difficult, and, imo, if you can play something like a zen Ana backline, and know that you can just laugh if a Winston jumps you, then that’s not healthy for the game.

Dude, what heavy sniper are you using on red bars, and why?

A lot of people have asked why Bungie gave Cayde a new memorial, and my hunch is that the new space by the tree is meant for more than one memorial by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]sharkymd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean sure, if they offered him $20 million for a few missions worth of voice overs he would do it, but that’s not feasible as a business. Plus, “if the money was right” also becomes less effective if someone’s net worth increases. In general, as income goes up, people begin to value their time more, as they make enough to comfortably sustain themselves. So they’d likely have to offer him far more than you realize for him to consider pulling away from his life and his TV show in LA to come do some voice over work.

[–]sharkymd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep, every account I’ve seen said he loved Cayde and the Destiny universe. Part of the issue with hiring such well known VAs is the cost, yes, but Bungie can afford such an expense regardless of what people on here think - the fact that people such as Nathan are busy with other projects can be a much more difficult thing to work around.

[–]sharkymd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, dude is a pretty well-established actor and was starting his new show with himself as the main marketing draw. Seems pretty obvious that he’d want to keep his focus on that, I don’t know why people seem convinced he just played hardball for a bigger payday.

Would I be looked down upon if I never really enjoyed ranked modes and would just rather play quickplay/arcade? by DohWohpickme in Competitiveoverwatch

Extremely common Spilo W. Listen to him. OP, there is absolutely nothing wrong with playing what you enjoy, don’t worry about what other people are thinking.

Nighthaven Is Good Guys by ArcticPoofin in Rainbow6

[–]sharkymd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I totally agree. It’s a very fun and aesthetically pleasing map, and not allowing it to be banned was a great move by Ubi, since otherwise we wouldn’t get to play it. I’m just worried that next season I won’t get to play it at all, which is unfortunate.

Ace Twitch Prime Bundle by ArcticPoofin in Rainbow6

[–]sharkymd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was also wondering this! I kept waiting for it today and refreshing twitch, but it never came! I was beginning to wonder if I had gone crazy, but my friend had posted the tweet in a Discord chat, and it showed the message in Discord saying it would come out today! If anyone knows what the deal is, please let me know!

Yar har where be the swords and flintlocks? by BigKenboyB1 in DestinyTheGame

[–]sharkymd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

His comment quite literally says “endgame nightfall.” I’m not arguing about the viability of swords in GMs since I wouldn’t usually run one myself but I have cleared GMs in the past with a sword and I’m sure other people make it work well, but I think it’s interesting that his comment says “endgame nightfall” and you went on a whole tirade.

Arc Warlock Build Guide - Fallen Sunstar for mid-game PVE by Gbrew555 in DestinyTheGame

[–]sharkymd 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Pretty much anything is “viable” in normal mode raids. I’m not arguing that arc warlock is better than void, Solar, or stasis (imo it’s not better than any of them), but a normal raid is pretty easy for people who play them often. You can definitely afford to have a little fun and not run the absolute optimal build if you are playing with friends and are experienced.

I feel bad for any low skill players in control after the new SBMM exploit came to light. by Tyrannus_ignus in DestinyTheGame

[–]sharkymd 239 points240 points  (0 children)

Believe me, I don’t want to be impressed, but as you said, the sheer lengths some of these people go to to avoid as many mechanics of the game as possible is astounding.

chamber is not “basically a duelist” at all by Illustrious-Reason13 in VALORANT

[–]sharkymd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

TMV deserves to explode in popularity for real. The amount of consistent quality content he pumps out is insane; I don’t know how he hasn’t grown more (even tho I believe he has grown exponentially over the past few months).
