    Yeah, fuck this game. Routinely outdamaging my dps as a fucking healer, but these poeple are on my level. Sure.

    Surefour played a Tracer game I watched yesterday that was just ungodly. He ended up with 103 elims on her and didn't even play her the entire time. He's normally ridiculously good, but when he gets in the zone it is something to behold. One minute he's playing one character, and doing really...

    My placement matches were actually pretty good, even though I went 4-6. I felt like I had good teams and even the losses weren't bad losses. I never thought I was awesome, just average, and the games were clearly better than quick play. Ended up at 48. Seemed fair. Right after qualifying my...

    Ranked is fucking broken, there is no two ways about it.

    Overwatch

    It's probably queuing you with people in the high 50's because once you hit a certain rank there are only so many people at your level. There just aren't enough players to keep matching you with other people 70+ unless you want to wait forever. I was watching Ster this morning, I think he's 74...

    Either that or the content will have to be snoozefest easy so that people don't die much.

    That's not a bug. You don't get the leaver penalty, you still take the loss.

    Just ran into this earlier. The Mei was literally freezing people almost instantly and her rick click icicle had no delay. Definitely wasn't a ping issue, even her animations looked wrong.

    Torb is overpowered on consoles because the console play is so much slower and he is basically unchanged. I just played on PS4 for the first time this past week and I couldn't believe how differently the game plays compared to the PC version. I'm glad they aren't balancing both versions in the...

    He is terrible, which makes it ironic that people jump in with "he's fine" shit thinking they are doing themselves or people who play Hanzo a favor. Way to defend mediocrity! Now go play a better character, unless you're on the other team.

    Overwatch

    But he isn't fine. Like I said last week he's a shit tier character but kills people in cheesy fucking ways and that's the problem. He actually needs buffs, but they can't buff him and still allow this shit that you see him do in 80% of his kills. So he's never going to get buffed, he's always...

    Also, use right click to hover instead of space. Seemingly lots of people don't know this. He's not one of them, he is the one and only. Even Widow and McCree pre-nerf had to aim. You can literally get kills with Hanzo while having a fucking seizure.

    Parroting a Blizzard dev doesn't make the tick rate issue any less true. And just because you've never noticed it before doesn't mean people haven't been talking about tick rates for years. The only reason you think it's suddenly an issue is because Blizzard has a large fan base, so there are...

    Except that most snipers used it. You have to spend a ton more time scoped now, which means less situational awareness and movement. I've noticed all day long that Widow isn't nearly as scary.

    Overwatch

    I don't think you understand the importance of quick scoping and how big a deal that makes. The damage nerf will help characters like Zen, but I'm watching AnnMunition and she just said that Widow has gone from her favorite to a character she doesn't want to play anymore because of the change...

    Overwatch

    If you have a brain in your head, the ability to recognize when you need to change characters, and understand what an objective is, you will be better than 80% of those currently playing. The not liking having to depend on strangers will probably kill the game for you, however, unless you have...

    Hanzo is just a shitty character that has no business in the game. He's not good, but they had to give him such ridiculous, hit half the screen every time you shoot, aim just to make him relevant and makes it makes it frustrating for anyone he kills. And they've backed themselves in a corner...

    Pretty much. I've almost completely stopped using Mercy, who was my main for a long time, because people want all her healing but don't want to do shit to protect her. Lucio is far and away the better choice for anything not organized. If you hit your boost right away it gives your team time to...

    Just had a game that had to be a half hour long. Round one and two both teams had 99% with long overtimes, round three we shit the bed and lost like 100/57%. Easily the best match I've played since the game came out and one I didn't mind losing. This game and it's extremes, it's crazy.

    Well, quick play is all we have, for at least another month, so yeah, people get upset. Maybe they should have shipped with ranked instead of making us wade through this shit for 2 months at release?

    Spoken like someone who has a decent team of people he plays with on a regular basis. Sorry, but chances are if you are constantly raging about your idiot teammates it just means you are running solo queue. 7 million players and 6.9 million of them are fucking retards. And I'm not talking people...

    GTX 1070 and GTX 1080 announced available May 27th

    Thanks to Evga I'm replacing mine with the step up, but otherwise there is no way I could justify it. The 980 Ti's are faster than 1070's when both are overclocked and many are nearly as fast when overclocked as a stock 1080. On top of that when you figure out how much extra you'd have to spend...

    This game is so infuriating. I don't think I've ever played a shooter where so many people don't know their heads from their asses. You don't even have to be good just not brain-dead and people still can't manage. Blizzard's marketing g, videos, lore and waifu have brought in a ton of people who...

    Yeah I played them both in beta, own them both now, and they don't play anything alike. Overwatch plays exactly like TF2 or Paladins and Battleborn plays like Smite in first person. They share unique characters and are team based games but past that they have very little in common. You'd...

    Overwatch

    The only similarity is that they both have "hero" type characters, everything else is pretty much different. Battleborn is a MOBA through and through, complete with items, leveling, creeps, buildables, and a longer TTK. Overwatch is basically TF2 lite. They really aren't similar at all.

    Well, we all know that's not true, because before the game was released EVERYONE was shitting on it, and we all knew it was a Doom game back then. Go to any forum that had a thread on this game and look at the posts before release compared to the ones after release. People didn't just change...

    1) Dunno wtf you're on about with the "It's like Borderlands, but completely different" rant. Makes no sense to me, really. It doesn't look, feel, play in any way, shape, or form like Borderlands. 2) Wolfenstein was another excellent shooter, it wasn't "much longer" though. A full completion...

    This week's big claim is that it will take you 48 real life hours to cross the world map. Sounds great, right? Huge open world that takes literal days to cross. Ok, now fill that map with content...on a Kickstarter budget and no experience! LOL. This game has to be a giant scam, or these guys...

    That's why metacritic gamer scores are bullshit. On one hand you have shills trying to boost the scores by giving games 10's and the other you have a bunch of pissy little twats giving games a 0 because they think they either think they are counter-balancing the 10's, which just shows they suck...

    Black Desert

    PvP is basically dead for many of us already and this patch is just going to make it even worse. I have my complaints here and there, but the power gap is the one thing that really sucks about this game. I wish they'd put a hard cap on leveling or tone down the power imbalance that each level gives.

    It seems like every day they reveal some amazingly ambitious feature to this game. For a bunch of people who've never worked on a released MMO and had to fund through Kickstarter they are way too ambitious and this game is doomed to fail. They are basically tossing as many cool ideas as they can...

    Nothing beats my old Toshiba for vomit inducing looks. The thing had a beautiful screen, amazing sound for a laptop, and was a beast. Problem was it as ugly as fuck, weighed 15lbs, and would melt your legs if you put it in your lap.

    That's actually the one I was going to link, the other being the Alienware 17, both are about $1300 but the Alienware "only" weighs 7lbs. I think the Gigabyte is 10lbs, actually. If you go less powerful you can get thisAmazon.com: ASUS ROG GL552VW-DH71 15-Inch Gaming Laptop, Discrete GPU...

    Hatorade is right, you aren't going to find all three together and depending on what your idea of cheap, lightweight and powerful are you might not find even two of them. What are you looking to spend and what do you consider lightweight?

    I'm still enjoying it quite a bit but the population situation is dire on the PC. Hopefully it will be a slow burn but I'm not holding my breath. As far as the gear I've stopped equipping legendary items at this point due to the high price to activate them. By the time I have enough to crystals...
