I feel like City Never Sleeps is a Huge wiff of a patch. not only did it do nothing to the meta, it just slams home be a movement chud or don't play. Like it is actual ass. I am actually in fear deadlock will flash in the pan, and flop....
so let me get this straight, we are cool with a teamwide 11second cd barrier...... but paige's barrier needs to be 30+ seconds........ what is this witchcraft...... also baba is the best lane character in the game now.
Welp i had fun but i legit think this patch killed deadlock for me, I have 0 interest in hyper mobility slop. we have to much of that on the market as is. Heroes need total rebalances/reworks. Game just feels awful now. o7 3 years of my life.
Deadlock feels like actual ass to play now..... like WTF.
How did fixing high end exploits..... fucking kill the lower tier of gameplay.... this legit makes me sad....
Yeah the deadlock balance patch "hot fix" I think is just straight up for the high end of the players base and i think the lower end will get nuked cause of it. like, The changes to Eco i think Killed lower tier play. It is just not good.
I gotta say listening to people takes about deadlock right now makes me giggle. game is about to have an identity crisis and it will be funny af.
The one thing I hate about scouting...... when you lie on stream or to the person asking you questions...... pro tip never double down on the lie. the internet never forgets.
I don't think i have ever been sad about a game failing. but there might be a first......... idk how deadlock got this fucked......
THIS 100% this why Robert the GOAT.
Feedback like this has a place and a time. It’s not inherently bad some of the time but it’s a major issue if the coach only has this one tool that he uses.
Does anyone have videos where he uses anything other than demeaning and harsh feedback? (Genuinely curious).
Not everything has to be rainbows and butterflies but a good coach can read the room and adapt his communication style to match what his team needs. As a coach, and you only have one mode, then the types of players you can work with are quite limited.
Some game Developer's have spoiled me, the rest of you need to step your game up. It is wild to me we live in a world of "live service" but I can't give live feedback to designer's and devs in most cases, it should not take communities revolting for us to communicate. Be better.
2000 hrs of deadlock finally broke me, i think it is time to move on. real shame cause it had great moments too.
I think the biggest fumble in gaming history might happen next year. no Day 1 PC release for GTA6 is a yikes...... if they follow the Rockstar norm, of 1.5 years after launch. would put pc release on sept 2027....
