No one will even watch my replays if I gave them out. People can’t even interpret my screenshots properly. I put one up where I’m about double damage of the other Junkrat and these people are like “he’s almost as good as you, he has slightly worse KDA”. How do you think he even got kills with such low damage? I got them low and he finished em to stay in the game.
Nah, the truth is I saw how they played their tanks and they complained rather than running back promptly. We had to 3v5 constantly because of their lack of effort and suiciding. They ran in 1v5 and 2v5 constantly, they ran in deep, they died, they complained. Since it’s my word against theirs, numbers and stats are all that matters, their deaths reflect they didn’t play their tanks well. Muradin you jump out and self-heal, same with Malganis, they played like potatoes and died constantly. It was honestly a shame to see people play their tanks that bad but I had to carry on the damage end so I couldn’t show them how to play Mura or Malganis.
I won’t post much, after all, D4 is coming out soon. I’ll be busy slaying demons and discovering new legendaries. It’s a shame what happened to this game though.
there are topics directly available where people share stuff and others actually do check it out. Your replies have thus far boiled down to “people don’t agree with my bias” and you’re just acting on that bias.
You could even ‘trick’ people by making a post and asking what could be done better, and you’d more likely get people to then check it out and confirm if you’re “always” as great as you claim.
There are reasons people around here are dubious of high-stat claims and the impact that they have largely because many of us have had games of teammates ranting about how great their padding had been, or more commonly, they neglect what ‘good’ their allies are actually doing because they have to prod themselves up at the expense of others.
If you stop acting in a way to confirm the bias, then you might actually find out people don’t behave the way you expect because you stop looking for the thing you want. These forums have some WoW-vets here that can point out part of the issue of number-fixations is they don’t distinguish between the differences in stat-padding and effective numbers. Sure, circumstances can indicate stats get high for a reason, or low for that fixation, but hyperbolic claims tend in indicate a late of understanding Effective numbers over bloated ones.
You don’t seem keen on the difference, and that’s part of why people are calling you out for ‘emotional’ despite asserting you aren’t being as such.
Posters are usually open to watching a replay, this is the reason RCW’s Hots Replay Thread exists.
You are correct in your assumption that people might not interpret your screenshots properly, simply because that’s impossible as without a replay, numbers alone lack context.
I suggest you post in RCW’s thread, there are still current and former master players who occasionally frequent the forums, they might not tell you what you want to hear, but if you’re open to feedback, the majority of them will be fair and gentle with you.
You both had 8 kills. You had 13 assists, he had 10 assist. If he had spent most of the game just finishing targets you damaged, He would have mostly assists with few kills.
But even if he did just finish targets, that’s still value. Otherwise, your targets would always walk away alive.
except people that are given advise on how to see the game differently can actually play differently; telling a bunch of people that don’t work on a game to “balance” the game doesn’t actually change the game.
Not doing this to flex but this kinda proves double healer is useless. If you replace one of their healers with a damage dealer they woulda had the explosive burst that gets kills. Instead, they couldnt do enough damage to take down my Nazeebo and I literally farmed their team and stats with battle toads.
I predicted we would win when people were complaining early on, told em the early game don’t matter and the healers will run out of gas. I guess it’s because I’'m a numbers guy I knew they wouldnt have enough damage to compete. Why do people think it is good and keep doing it in ARAM? Go damage. Stop trying to ruin many people’s last week of HOTS with your double heal and trolling before they migrate to Diablo 4.
Double healer, or almost any comp, can work in ARAM. One of the reasons (aside from player skill) is you are making a “blind draft”, you have no idea what the enemy is taking. They may lack sufficient damage to beat the sustain of a double healer comp.
I dunno, Diablo 4 worries me. Really not a fan of some of the monetization stuff we’ve already seen.
They are selling experience boosts in a game where they have said it takes around 150 hours to reach max level which feels very much like selling power.
The story is being cut up and released in pieces along side the battle pass.
And probably the silliest thing, the collectors edition of the game doesn’t come with the game. Your essentially paying 100$ for an art book.
This combined with the massive F ups activation bliz has had this month alone.
The borderline rug pull with overwatches 's pve.
Adding wow token to classic despite promising not to.
Shutting down old call of duty fan servers when the live servers have security so poor that people can hijack each others computers through the servers.
It just feels dangerous to be so hyped for their next project.
This will be the first Diablo I’m not going to rush out and buy. Everything you mentioned above is a red flag for me as a consumer. I’ll just wait it out and see how things unfold. I mean, D3 didn’t really become D3 until the “Reaper of Souls” expansion. So given that, I might not only save money, but frustration with a game that isn’t really ready for launch.
This is probably what people are the most mad about.
Pve was basically the whole reason for overwatch 2 existing. They spent years of development time on this instead of developing the pvp and people were ok with this because of how hyped up the pve was.
Overwatch 2 was also a downgrade from overwatch 1 in many regards that people also tolerated because of the pve hype. Some of the highlights being 5v5 sucks, its buggier then OW1, and oh yeah NEW HEROES ARE LOCKED BEHIND THE BATTLE PASS : |
They canceled it almost in its entirety. And what were left with is a game thats worse then what it was.
Alot like warcraft reforged now that i think about it.
Using the samples of compositions to create a weighted average (generalized for the composition, and not based on select heroes) double-healer teams win 52.2% of their games (on average) while single healer compositions win 50.45%.
While a good mephiso can be a carry-dps, for aram, the threat is usually 2 Lords of Hatred on one side to be “unstoppable”. I would also say he’s highly build dependent, so if the player doesn’t have the right build, they aren’t going to do enough damage to chain cdr to be enough of a threat to actually carry the game.
also, kinda moot considering how much team support the tyrael is providing.
Please, can you throw all your double healer games my way? I had a super fun game recently as DPS Li Li, with an Andiun and a Zaraya thrown in for good measure. We had a KTZ and an Anub’arak, the enemy team declined any healer options, they didn’t live to tell the tale.
Part of the fun of Diablo or other MMO/Action RPG or whatever you would call this is going to be leveling up and grinding gear. If someone has very little time to play the game I’m okay with them selling experience boosts or other advantages to these people.
Why? Because I’m a gamer and know I’d put up enough time into the game to reach maximum level with ease and honestly buying this would cheat myself out of the gameplay. I plan to acquire the best gear and that involves grinding monsters on end. I might not be there first with the levels or gear wise but I’ll get there eventually. It’s true people buying shortcuts + playing a lot will get them there first but is it necessary to enjoy the game? I doubt it.
Now if they make having the best gear or items behind a paywall then that is a big issue. Selling cosmetic stuff or experience is one thing, selling end game gear or systems to achieve the gear may deter players. This would make the end game PVP and PVE be dominated by people who spent more and other MMOs already did this and I believe it lost them players in the long run.
Many people these days are wise to this and prefer gear equalized PvP kind of like how HOTS or mobas are. MMOs known for encouraging heavy whaling had to put gear equalized PvP modes in almost as if to say “please don’t quit, we’ll let you compete in PvP too!” but it felt too late. On games like Diablo if everyone who plays a decent amount have virtually the same gear I think it will be fine. We’ll wait and see what they do.
I played the beta and the game definitely has potential. The gameplay felt great. Skills obviously needed to be rebalanced b/c there was too many useless ones or noob traps.
