I cant even be bothered dude test it yourself and send it, because no matter what evidence I show you you refute everything even though I have hard evidence in the form of testing images, citations
You just say your theory bad my theory good because change bad I like overwatch essentially you havent gave any sources images videos citations etc
strafing is not what has made hitscan oppressive
Its what made mobillity oppressive and projectiles are terrible against mobillity so it made hitscan oppressive
And since hitscan is oppressive by nature projectile isnt its not strafing anyway its head bobbing and lack of movement accel strafing is fine.
All you have provided is a well known issue with certain heroes physical models making their movements more exaggerated when crouching or spamming.
Everyone has known this since 2016. You have provided nothing substantive.
Not only that, but as someone that actually plays the game at a high level and is very familiar with many of the more niche mechanics, what you have shown is literally not advantageous to the player attempting it - it literally makes their head easier to hit. It is literally counter to your entire argument.

Here, how about a forum thread showing that everyone has known how to counter this âcheeseâ since at least 2019?

Or another?

A clip of Kabaji showing the exact same thing as early as 2018?
I know for a fact KarQ has a video from around 2018 on it as well because when I started played thatâs where I first remember seeing it mentioned, I just donât want to search for it at the moment, but be my guest if you really want to.
I mean, dude itâs been well known for a long time that AD spam too fast makes you easier to headshot. You being bad at the game and not knowing that is a you problem.
nope its the abilities that hitscan has that has made them oppressive.
That kabaji clip is so low quality I cant even tell what map he is on a joke obviously but that is terrible quality
Plus kabaji is waiting for them to walk into his crosshair that is inherently anti skill that just proves my point that no movement accel leads to lack of skill he isnt flicking or tracking or doing anything impressive his just waiting for them to walk into his crosshair.
Dude if you think youre so good 1v1 me
Are you daft?
AD spam is such a bad strategy you literally just have to aim in the center of their hitbox and click to counter it with near 100% effectiveness, and you still think itâs actually an issue?
Thereâs a reason you hardly actually see simple AD spam by high ranked players, dude. It doesnât work. You have to have movement mixups. Which I have talked to you about who even knows how many times by now.
You donât know what youâre talking about. Iâm not going to continue this conversation.
I looked up your account. Youâre plat.
I am GM and Masters.
You are not worth my time.
Youll lose though 100% I just dont play this game that much.
Prediction is sort of dead in Overwatch because of the game having zero movement acceleration. Basically every projectile hero in Overwatch relies on a certain lvl of spam to be viable. In fact they are balanced around it.
It is impossible to predict the movement of an individual that can instantly change its direction, meaning these heroes rely on luck to actually hit anything.
Lol, neither do I, my dude. Youâve also literally told me your ranks in other competitive shooters, and Iâm higher than you in those as well.
Again, youâre not worth the time.
You was on literally 36 minutes ago I havent played this game for a week and I barely played before that.
Thats what Im saying.
Okay? What is the point youâre trying to make?
I havenât played the game for like 6 months because Iâve been playing FF14.
Do you want a medal or something?
If you barely play the game, why put in a significant amount of effort to completely change the movement dynamics of the game?
I barely play the game because its boring because every game is hitscan and tracer I want to switch it up a bit play against different characters and play different characters without losing Im on a derank spree because Ive been trying to learn doomfist genjis basically out of the question his a hard core throw because his not viable.
I want to play something fun and different if I wanted to play Soldier 76 and Cassidy every game id play CSGO
Point is you said Im bad but I know I could definetely smoke you in a 1v1 I just dislike the anti skill mechanics in this game.
Big talk for someone that canât break out of plat in OW or Valorant lmao
Plats 3 is a high rank in valorant equvilent to masters in this game by percentage of playerbase and I cant get out of plat in OW because its so team based and I play for fun not to sweat ill bookmark this and ill go get masters and then ill reply to this and u gonna feel like a dum dum Im 70% winrate on almost all season from what I remember so I can probably climb fast if I play more.
I really donât think this change will have the outcome youâre looking for.
By adding movement acceleration, youâd have to change a significant number of mechanics in the game to accommodate. Movement acceleration heavily favors hitscan, so at bare minimum if you added it and changed nothing, the game would immediately get worse for you.
To balance it appropriately, almost every hero in the game would require massive balancing changes to damage, movement abilities, hit boxes, etc.
Movement acceleration would mean very little for heroes with high mobility. You say you want to learn doomfist - well, he would be completely unaffected by such changes since his entire play style has nothing to do with it. They all cancel out his current momentum on use. Tracerâs blink would still be instantaneous - and at the higher ranks, most Tracers dont stand in front of you and just A-D spam, they blink around you. You might be able to beat out the cheesy tracers in plat that you have trouble with now, but once you get higher, their positioning and movement is going to be more intelligent than âhow fast can i spam A-D-Ctrl.â Most of them will probably kill you before you can react, and if not will blink+180 and finish you off.
CC abilities also now become far more punishing since theyâd be easier to land. Landing a hook with hog becomes easier. Landing sleep becomes easier. etc etc.
Itâs the equivalent to about mid-diamond in Overwatch by percentile, not sure where youâre getting masters from, and yet still substantially lower than me in both games. Also, diamond is still considered bad in Overwatch. Players donât even begin to understand complexities about roles until like low masters at the absolute earliest.
Iâve yet to meet someone below 3700 that has even the most fundamental understanding of tanking, for example.
I solo queued to GM on every role except Support. Common crying point of âIâm stuck bad gameâ.
Thatâs crazy dog, I had a 70% winrate in masters and GM.
How do you think those compare?
If you going to talk so big dude why dont you just 1v1 me and prove it man?
Why would I bother? I have literally nothing to gain from doing that, and I donât care.
