    Guess I should be happy I didn't face the pre nerf version then. It seems interesting to me, as people have pointed out, that they seem to be balancing for competitive play as opposed to normal people. I enjoy the game but I don't know if it quite has the appeal of organized competition vs say...

    Overwatch

    The problem is its not a lone Bastion. And I agree. Junkrat, Pharah etc are good. But a Bastion that sets up a good bit behind his team can be a problem. Especially in unorganized pubs. In group play I don't think Bastion would be half the issue he is in random pubs. There you can...

    Overwatch

    So far, this game is really just making me miss TF2. Others have said it here, but the fact that its a teamwork game over being able to make solo plays I think is going to hurt it some. I was really excited about a new update to a TF2 style game that I could pop in and play some rounds during...

    I guess its stress test weekend? Cause atm the game is completely unplayable. Any game I join its all stop motion claymation shit and not just for me. Whole team is complaining about it.

    Are there any Goons still left in Goonfleet? Most of them I know either left or got pushed out long ago.

    Was skimming a book by Mises recently and this is one of the things he pointed out about why everyone hates meritocracy and capitalism. It removes the excuses people have for failing. In aristocracies or caste systems etc, you are born to your station. Its not your fault. You can rise within...

    DOTA 2

    Another thing that's interesting about Bulba. Blitz apparently did a cast awhile back where he was talking with some of the Moonduck studio guys I think it was, and Blitz mentioned his time helping coach Complexity prior to the Shanghai Major. They got into talking about how most all the...

    Can someone explain to me what was going on with EG's second draft against Liquid? I generally like EG, but sometimes I think ppd takes all the 'I'm a drafting genius' shit too much to heart and outthinks himself into shit drafts. It looked like they let liquid have the exact drafts EG used...

    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    They've said they intend to bring back buying in game money with NCCoins or whatever, but were going to wait awhile for the economy to stabilize before implementing it. So... its coming, supposedly. I have faith that NCSoft will put it in, cause there is no way their greedy souls are going to...

    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    So, people have figured out you can change it to loot master right as you are killing / killed the final boss. Trolls/ninjas are changing that shit to loot master and setting rolls to heroic and bogarting all the dungeon drops now. Like I said. Some things about this game are great. Others...

    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    I was having a problem with my Razer mouse constantly 'reinstalling'. But the latest patch to Synapse whatever seemed to fix it. (So far. Prolly crash again when I need it, since it seems to time with big fights) Also. This game is so good in so many ways, and so pure shit in others its...

    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    Eh. So far i kinda like the loot system. Instead of just getting screwed by RNGesus i feel like i got the courtesy of a reach around by getting some cash out of it. Eventually you hope you get enough cash to win the bid. Later as the game progresses it might get worse when money bags can...

    Ghost in the Shell: First Assault. GitS + Counter Strike?

    http://firstassault.nexon.net/en/about So this popped up on my Steam feed yesterday. Apparently they are releasing an FPS loosely set in the Ghost in the Shell IP. Its listed as Free to Play, but its being distributed by Nexon so I expect a metric fucktonne of microtransactions...

    Overwatch

    TF2 came in the orange box with I think Half Life, Portal, and TF2. So yeah, it cost something, but it was a pretty good steal considering the price and what was in it. And also once you bought it there was nothing that was locked behind a paywall. The worry I have isn't that they are going...

    Microtransactions are a given. Just are they going to be cosmetics, pretty princess dress up stuff or are they going to have key game play stuff like heroes and maps locked behind paywalls?

    Overwatch

    The reason most of us are really sketchy over the box price is this looks like they might be setting up to do a box price and then throw all the microtransactions on top of it as well. Yeah, you get the starting hero set but then everything after that you have to pay for on top of box costs...

    It says on the db.tracker that you can reroll those? Is that a mistake, or can you actually reroll the Strike exclusive gear?

    You might want to research this one a bit more. The IDF has 2 women combat units, but they are not truly integrated as you'd think by the news. There are two units that allow women that are combat units. The Caracals and the Lions of Jordan. They are relegated to guarding Egyptian and...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I started out playing FFXI with a controller and it worked for me. The slower pace of combat though is what allowed it to work. Having to go through the menus and shit of FFXI now with one of the more 'fast paced' combat MMOs would be horrible.

    So, quick relevant questions. Does she still have a boyfriend? If the answer is yes, then be a little careful about it. No? Then go, why the fuck not. Its not that far away. Even if she does have a boyfriend, just kinda see whats up and work on making plans for shit to do together...

    Raw SP isn't the best metric for sale price. People worry a lot about how 'focused' your SP is towards a partiicular playstyle and how much 'wasted' SP you have. For instance my first character is a mish mash of ADD training, able to fly Huks as well as frieghters and PVP ships. A lot of...
