Previous thread:

Fernando poster is dead

I'm surprised they haven't done something with Smite that just kills it. I know they tried it during the beta but the community managed to get them to stop. Sure the game's in a constant state of garbage balance and no real growth, but they've somehow kept that going instead of just fucking up completely like all their other games.

Seriously guys? What's the big deal? Sure there are a FEW and by few I mean VERY FEW problems with this patch. It's going to be VERY VERY expensive to get even ONE persons cards all to level 5, so what in the world would make you think that only like 2 percent of the game population is even going to pay for that? I guarantee that some people will buy some stuff, but it's literally IMPOSSIBLE to get a specific card that you want for a specific champion because it's gasp RANDOMIZED the only way to get cards for a specific champion is using champion specific chests and you can only get two PER DAY and you can't by them AND they are random meaning you could potentially go the whole time without ever leveling up a specific champions cards. It's all random so the only people that will be paying that much for cards are going to be people who want to go bankrupt. You can't get specific cards you just play the game. Most people will have their cards at level three already anyway so it's not like the cards will be trash. The only people without having cards at level 3 will be new players that will be going against new players that have THE SAME CARD LEVELS. One of the only problems is the fact that you have to "grind" by playing the game.. What's the problem with that again? And the fact that the cards will be pretty hard to grind to high levels. I watched KamiVS video after posting this and I gotta say I'm very proud of him and very disappointed in everyone else. He is SO calm and goes through it step by step and explains pros and cons. If you haven't seen it go watch it but I agree with him but another thing he said was that he spent over 700 dollars worth of crystals just to get one legendary for fernando to level three which just proves even more that this is NOT pay2win, NO ONE is going to be paying that much on this game meaning everyone is going to be grinding it out. It's not even live yet so there's hope, just chill out.

>ywn be autistic enough to write a wall of shitpost

do you want a specific response or this just this you

Implying /ourguy/ PrettyHair will actually shill like this. He's not Raynday
Begone!

They are just ridiculously bad at problem solving. I honestly believe they're not intentionally trying to rip us off or kill the game here.

The original problem they wanted to solve was radiant chests having duplicates, which meant you spent gold to get gold. If there were no duplicates, people would get all the chest items and they couldn't pretend to be generous by giving out radiants. So they did essence.

A lot of long-time players, especially ones who pay money, already have all the cards, tons of essence and most of the other stuff from radiants. They think this means we need something new to have a sense of progression (because who plays games for gameplay?). So now they're trying to kill two birds with one stone and making duplicate cards be what we use to slowly progress.

I really believe them when they say the data shows there's players who just want the best deck, and also players who want everyone on equal footing deck-wise. So they tried to make two modes for these two groups, not realizing that these two groups play both modes. We wanted more gamemodes, but with different objectives, not different rules.

They need to all play the game and talk to real players. I don't know any players who honestly complain that they have too much gold/essence. We complain about bugs, matchmaking, etc., literally everything else.

Playrite

there's no maeve in battlerite

theres a loli with a cat outfit tho

Pearl has an ugly face, even worse than Maeve

>sausage fingers
>flat feet
no thanks

I think the game might be too far gone before I can see my special girl in a medical costume.
For shame, HiRez. For shame. You could've made the game a fun experience for everyone, but yet again you fell under your own weight and ruined everything.
I don't want to be spiteful, but it certainly disappoints me how things are going to turn out. It is only because of my unending love for Ying that I can't bring myself to be too harsh on them.
At this point I have huge doubts that they'll be able or even want to bother to turn this around, but I can only hope they prove me wrong, for the sake of every player and every one of us here.

Tell me about it man... Now I never get to see Ash in a zero suit

>cards are still free but it's back to 12 point hands
Would people be okay with level 5 cards if you still had 12 point hands? No leggo levels, just normal cards.

what the fuck man

yes

Prettyhair made a tweet about asking everyone to play the PTS once its live again, followed by a plea to send in feedback.

Thats a cry for help. Prettyhair fucking hates this system. He is on our side.
Raynday has yet to talk positive about this. And as a matter of fact, he avoids any mention of it. he usualy defends any system in the most bullshit way possible, but here its silence.
Speaks volumes about his opinion of the system.

Its obvious that both cant voice out their opinion because of their higher ups(be hit Martini, Erez or someone else) but the Paladins team seems to be pretty torn about this system.

Reminder that /brg/ is your new home.

> asking everyone to play the PTS once its live again, followed by a plea to send in feedback.
Raynday has said the same thing multiple times during his streams.
I don't think anyone working on paladins is happy about this.

gotta kek

>Mini Maeve will never nibble on your finger

Blame Tencent and their p2w strategies. They should just make a seperate version for the chinese market.
also I won't delete this picture :)

haha

i'll play it when they add maeve

why are they so sleepy

I want to play the PTS but I simply don't have the time, I have a project on a tight deadline and I have to work even night hours when I normally play, but I still fucking hate this system and I wish they realized their mistakes without me having to tell them

its not. I was there yesterday and the faggots there constantly use the "they", "their" and "them" pronouns instead of "he" or "she".

I dont want to deal with these retards

Fuck off, Erez

what are the chances of hi-rez trying anything with smite? i am interested in the game.

Just one faggot referring to splashbrush

I wouldn't bother with a hi-rez game after what's going on right now

>They should just make a seperate version for the chinese market.
That's what they have.

>125% cd on abilities

Fuck chinks and pajeets!

Retrocausality is pretty great.

>11k crystals

I dont want to be under retarded Antifa-tier liberals. The moment you reach either end of the political horseshoe, you should consider killing yourself.
We do have homosexuals in /palg/, but these niggers treat it like what it is : a sexual orientation, and not a social statement against white america or some other bullshit.

The fact that one of these is at home over there means more will follow sooner or later.

Do you want to see me suffer? Do you think I'm not on your side?
Don't you think I'm already suffering enough?

>get duplicate cosmetic from chests
>3000 essence
>the essence is never added to my amount

????

Happy 2 years of beta!

Buffs never.

*raises paw*

Rate me right now!

And I don’t play ranked because I have anxiety attacks and low self esteem! :3

>play a casual match
>Only one other guy with mic
>Cyrillic name
>Open mic
>He's a prepubescent kid talking in Russian to his mom who sounds drunk in the background while a dog keeps barking
>He picks Strix

Which pronoun do you use for someone whose gender you don't know (when other people might know)?

Did we get a heterosexual now?

>And I don’t play ranked because I have anxiety attacks and low self esteem! :3
m-me too

...

i heard that Smite was released from Tencent hands and they can do things like spooky skelleton skins now.

>play a bot match
>one other guy with mic
>he's a br
>music playing loudly all match
>rest of team throwing fit in chat instead of muting

I think I've played with that guy. Was he some Gold Andro player?

Yep, that was him.

Why she got nerfed more? she is already in a sorry state

How about not using pronouns then? Or assume the default which is "he" on the Internet, especialy for bad porn artists.

Or how about adopting "he" after someone explains to you that splashbrush is indeed male and not some interdimensional fairy

she's a joke character

>badass strong woman who is serious all the time, never jokes
>only trash talks and wants to kick ass aggressively
>worst frontline in the game, arguably worst character in the game

>ASH¨
>BAD
fucK YOU! FOUND THE shitTER GUYS! FUCK ING noob! ASH IS THE BST ! ASH IS THE FUCKING BEST YO!

Isnt terminus the worst front?

No, he is still better than Ash.

>every skin you wanted, no recolors

At least 2 of those things need to happen if Hirez wants me to keep playing.

>mfw i main Zhin,maeve and evie

I just like wasting the enemy team time

Ahh... Ahh... Ahh... ZhinMaeve and Eviechina...
Ahh..
Eviechina..
Zhinmaeve and Eviechina

>flank mains

this desu
Well, at the very least the last 2 points

It's a fun class. Of course being hypermobile DPS it draws the shitters, so it contains the most shitters.

You should try Ghost Walk Grokh. Bonus points if you have the Mastery skin equipped.

I often go entire matches without dying once. It’s jolly good fun watching 2 or 3 people chase you into the arms of your own team and die.

Delete ghost walk I hate it

Hi-rez just excels at making unfun mechanics, don't they? Wraith is ebola.

That hurts, man.

what class takes the most skill user?
because they're all piss easy user

Still not nearly as bad as Overwatch in the unfun cancer department

>when a fl*nk player gives you a (You)

>Skye lobs a nuke at you
>drogoz delets your totem

and people say it's not easy being blue

Support.

stop acting like a retarded cunt with aspergers and it wouldnt have come to this.

I’m still getting the hang

Seris is comfy as fuck! :3

*teleports behind you*

>watching some old CB patch note shows to see what erez is like
>Ying's illusions healed on shatter, sje fired projectile bursts and Grohk had high dps
>Ying was a damage dealer before this
>you could sell items for half of their credit value
Huh. Interesting.

UMA

b-but maldamba is the only support with a high skill floor, the rest with the exception of ghrok possibly are brain dead
strix, kinessa and evie are probably around maldambos skill floor

evie is pretty easy desu

DELÍCIA

time to never play healer or tank again

>Azn
>Doctor
Fucking racist cracker

oops i was thinking about wormhole pre legendaries evieevie isnt hard, but i cant really think of other high skill floor champs

So what game are you gonna play now that Paladins is dead?

I'm probably gonna go back to speedrunning mirrors edge. my goal is to get top 10 on the leaderboards

The next hirez game LUL

New legendary is terrible too. Either needs more damage or faster fire rate.

I have been thinking of banning stryx lately just so I don't have to play with retards that pick him. I inevitably get the stryx that can't aim or play against the stryx that can.

>Using gender neutral words offends me
We have a containment board for snowflakes like you, it's called /pol/.

People actually win with term. His ult can be clutch.

Ghost walk grohk is stupid annoying.

>laughs in bomb king

>being retarded
enjoy AIDS , I suppose

At least the internal CD works on, otherwise you could never kill him. I did that until they fixed it, then when storm build.

That's what you think.

oh sure because vivian is much better
