@n0thaha2@2Calico @joalex79_ yeah, it might be a rank thing. once i got to GM lobbies it was pretty egregious. honestly didn't care too much until they added leaver penalties, now it's just cooked
@n0thaha2@2Calico @joalex79_ bro I queued 10 qp matches in overwatch 2 and there were two blatant hackers and four closet cheaters, that's more than half my matches. Every time I log on, I get a "thank you for reporting" message, game is cooked
@DauntlessLights Then I show you a clip of prenerf beloved with prenerf snapshot, prenerf quickdraw, prenerf icarus grip with prenerf scavs and the game looks a thousand times more fun
btw can you timestamp mercules claiming you have a 50% AA reduction in the air with OG Icarus Grip?
@DauntlessLights Yes I mained TTD since the game launched, even before the TTD remake. AE killed my playstyle I spent 5 years refining, which mercules kindly refers to as a "circus". Valid. Judging by the events at Bungie these past few years, I'm sure he knows a thing or two about circuses.
@DauntlessLights@Mercules904 "lowered AA while in the air"
That's exactly the problem.
This is a p2p game with like a 30 tick rate or something. If I wanted hyper realistic gunplay I would boot up any of the 10 other FPS games that do it better. Which is exactly what I've been doing since season of haunted
@iThirds @Mercules904 at least during beyond light I could go into a private match and enjoy the video game with my friends
now I have to wear funny grape helmet to have AA in the air, it's so cooked
@DauntlessLights@Mercules904 You slotted OG Icarus grip and you had what equates to 100 AE with 2% more bloom. How can you possibly think 1 weapon mod is not less opportunity cost than a myriad of mods perks and fragments and stuff?
@DauntlessLights@Mercules904 You could use any subclass, any exotic and any helmet mods you wanted. All you had to do was slot an icarus grip. How can you possibly believe this is a superior system; you lose so much and for what? 2% less bloom?
@DauntlessLights@Mercules904 Compare an Eye of the Storm austringer, old icarus grip, t steps, targeting mods on helmet
to
Air assault austringer, AE mods on helmet, astrocyte verse on dawnblade (???)
I lose Eye of the Storm, my movement exotic, ADS speed and 15 AA. It's not even remotely comparable
@kabobrobb@DestinyTheGame Listen to the chris proctor interview on ascendantnomad's channel - chris tells us that they "didn't want players to approach every engagement from the air first."
It's targeting everything from stompees to lions rampants to TTD. Anything that involves the dreaded z axis
@kabobrobb@DestinyTheGame Not sure how long you've been playing, but that gunplay you can't get enough of used to exist in the air too. Now we have exponentially reduced aim assist if we slide over a pebble. To dedicated players like me, AE is an abject insult that solely exists to pander to bad players
