Thoughts on the soul sharing changes? The 100/100 change last week was hotly debated elsewhere.

It depends on the skill bracket you’re playing in and how badly you’re losing I think. At higher skill levels there is a lot of strategic play around the urn, whether that’s using it as a comeback mechanic or using it to deny a comeback and bait fights. But in lower brackets I definitely agree that there is rarely any coordinated play around the urn and that steamrolls are more likely to occur due to the lack of ability and game knowledge of the losing team especially.

Some wwould argue too nice! But I definitely prefer a MOBA that errs on the side of comebacks rather than snowballs.

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

YOU SEE THAT SHIT?

HUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUE

Make use of the comeback mechanics. Recent updates have only made it easier to get back into a game where you’re behind.

I have been fat and lazy for 3 or 4 weeks now because so much has been going on. Finally have some time and headroom to focus on running again. Going for one later today!

Is that just general soreness or something more specific?

Good luck and have fun! I’m sure it will be exciting to run with so many people.

Depending on where they live, it could be more likely their first phone is an iPhone.

A nerf to Time Wall? I guess the devs watched MikaelS’s Halloween frag video…

What are you referring to? I searched for this and the results were just the CMG story. That wasn’t even proof that the technology existed, let alone was being used.

You focused on the wrong part of my comment. The issue isn’t that you have Google accounts or use YouTube, it’s that you seem to have very little understanding of how much data is being collected about you through these avenues. Instead you focus on some conspiracy theory about phone microphones which is still yet to be proven despite years of technologically illiterate people telling us that “the only way they could have known that is if they were listening to me!!!”. I don’t understand how you get to the point of posting in a niche privacy community whilst still being so completely clueless and misinformed.

Person in a privacy community using YouTube and multiple Google accounts thinks the only way they are being tracked is through phone microphones…you can’t make this shit up.

From what I’ve read, the Walker model is from an earlier version of the game and unlikely to return.

I agree that this circular echo-chamber effect is problematic, particularly in forums like reddit and Lemmy where early user voting often determines the tone of a discussion. Too many people assume a comment is correct or incorrect based on its score, or the number of similar comments, rather than whether a credible source was provided that supports whatever claim was made. It’s particularly bad in privacy and security communities because so many of the people involved have a higher level of base paranoia that makes them vulnerable to conspiracy theories and misinformation.

Yeah it’s like that for me too. If I want to play someone else I need to set her as lower priority because I’ll almost certainly end up with her otherwise.

It is quite fascinating seeing how quickly they make changes to heroes from patch to patch at this stage of development. I was 100% sure that Shiv and Bebop would be buffed this patch because of all the complaining from people who main them, and equally sure Paradox and McGInnis would be nerfed. You can almost predict the changes before they happen because they’re so often in line with the majority of feedback or the amount of clips people post of clearly stupid mechanics (Paradox AoE spam clips since the last patch, for example). The only thing I’m surprised by is that there were no changes to Vindicta, I thought for sure she’d receive some small nerfs again.

The problem (if you could call it that) with Paradox is that she is so unique that there is no real equivalent if you want to play more heroes without moving away from that playstyle.

Just be prepared for the meowing!

Vindicta and Paradox are my two most played and highest priority, followed by Wraith, Infernus and Warden. Last night I tried Grey Talon for the first time and found him quite fun as well, so he’ll probably be my third pick from now on. Some.of the upcoming heroes look quite fun and interesting so I might enjoy some of them too once they’re released.
