First of (sadly) many editionWelcome to Deadlock General - Deadlock is an upcoming 3rd person MOBA/Shooter from Valve. It is currently in preAlpha but invites are available.>How do I get an invite?Reply to the anchor post with your email and you probably will not receive one, but worth a shot.>I want to invite people!Try to keep it to 3~4 invites a week as to not get flagged as a mass inviter. Otherwise, check the anchor post for beggars

>>1317470Wow, she looks hideous in game. At least the fan art is cute.TY though.So... anyone here is in? how is the game feeling?
>>1317479Most of the dudes who are in are in /v/, which honestly I should probably cross post this thread there
>>1317394captainahab@cock.liWill make some drawings to beg later.

Honest question, hear me outShould we boycott this game?This looks waaaay less interesting than TF2, and it is probably going to attempt to replace TF2.Would supporting this game hurt TF2?
>>1317470>igCG has no tits>Fat art has giant honkersmany such cases
>>1318777no but it still looks like shit and it'll do well if it supports a mid-high level of coomers
Would an anon be kind enough to extract ivy's model and share it?

Even with a solid fucking build I feel like I'm barely doing fuck and all to the enemy. I've had more kills at best on melee dynamo running the anons gym teacher build but god damn.

So i've played this game i a bit ...it's nice, there's some fun to be had, moba x ow is a good idea, but it clearly doesn't have the SOVL of older valve games, and it's clearly not has refined.even CS2 has more soul

>>1341299it takes about a year to get to silver/gold level (semi-competent), depending on how active you are with learning and improving
I don't really get what this game's "in" is supposed to beIt's less moba-y than a pure moba so it's target would mainly be people who aren't already into mobas. But when I look into the game I hear it's still got the moba item and experience progression across a match, which is the poison pill that makes me not want to play moba. The 5v5 is an extra disadvantage but I could put up with itFor reference I play strategy games and big team FPS (TF2, Mordhau, BTB Halo) so I'm kinda in the audience you'd expect would be targeted by one of these moba/shooter hybrids.
>release>there already will be people who know everything about the gameI hate it.

>>1318777This game is closer to dota than tf2, tf2 is completely different. If anything it might replace DOTA if people can get past the perspective and there is much less focus on shooting like tf2.The game is filled with placeholders and unfinished models, you were not suppose to see it at this point which is why it doesn't look interesting.

Noob here. What are unsecured souls for? How do I secure them?
>>1387335you cant "secure" them, they are just normal souls but you slowly lose them over time and you drop them when you die
>>1317394Will try my luck here to get invitation. Very much appreciatednequadora@gmail.com
>>1387335Spend them or wait>>1387391You don't "lose" them, they become secured and safe. Your total soul count includes your unsecured souls, its not a separate count of secured souls then unsecured next to it.
Honest question, how many people here used to play Gigantic and hopped on Deadlock recently?Was going to come back to Gigantic after few months of not playing, since I had fun with other anons and they got me into said game, but that game ended up dropping from 4k players to 20 players.Part of me also wants to try coming up with fanmade character concepts for this game as well like I did here: https://www.reddit.com/r/gigantic/comments/1drmi4g/world_of_gigantic_project_of_semiseriously_adding/ and on Gigantic's threads here, but even knowing this is Valve's game, I'm not entirely sure if it's going to remain alive or if there's a point to it.Man, online game FOMO depression is real, thank god I like the designs in this game already and Paradox and Viscous are uber fun to play.

Can you retards stop comparing this to FPS games when it's clear that the game this game pulls the most from is this gem right here + dota. And it is fucking BEAUTIFUL if you know what you are doing fuck me i can't believe this game in what's probably a mid alpha stage is that fucking fun
>>1387841The game is a home-run it's no doubt, It has almost 20k concurrent players now and it's not even officially announced.But i believe some hero styles will change a lot between now and release, just check how dota heroes where in 2011.

>>1392003Well it's a Valve game for one, pre-alpha for another and lastly, there's a horde of whiny TF 2 manchildren pretending the game is awful and a bunch of gullible morons falling for it.

>>1393814got invited, tyvm
Anyway, might as well explain some stuff just in caseThis is technically an alpha. And we have had people banned over them getting word of mouth, and that The verge guy got banned soon after he released those news too, So if you want to share clips and what not, you need to be mindful of what you share or redact it accordingly.these are some of the things I have noticed in a match that can give away your identity, when you share screenshots or clips, I suggest hiding these to make the banning MORE UNLIKELY, not impossible, since they can probably find you by checking what heroes are in your match and in which team you were (and also why I'm putting a black censor on everything in my examples)another thing to point out, apparently, based on what they said on discord, if you get banned, apparently everyone you invited gets banned too, I don't know if this always happens or if this is just a scare tactic, but I point it out to make sure everyone here is on the same page.
And now to finally talk about the fucking game instead of begging for codes, This is not Overwatch, this is a moba, we are talking about last hitting, denying the enemy of getting currency, and scaling away to beat their asses on the lane. You harrass the other player to stop them from being able to hit the troops/minions so they don't get any money, and there is a shop midgame from which you can buy shit to beat the enemy, One thing that will help you tremendously early on is going to the store page and checking "browse guilds" to find a better build than the one suggested ingame. These builds also have extra details like in which order you should improve your shit (for example if I say 113412, it means I must level up my first skill at least 1 time before levelling up the rest of my skills)
>>1317394plz 76561198043901089
>>1394168you redacted a ton of shit yet didnt think to black out the final stats screen?where they can id match time, team souls, kda, or any of those other 60 stats they can punch into their db and find you? delete that if you can, fair warning
>>1394168and fyi they can collect data beyond what you see like what resolution, your avg fps, what quality youre running the game at, ping etc. and i know what lane you are in based on your screenies. appreciate trying to be helpful to everyone skirt the fake nda but you self snitched XD

>>1395004aim matters in overwatch though?
>tfw theyre letting them destroy you
>>1395030Thats what i meant, you dont need aim to climb the ranks in overwatch
>>1395004a real answer is it can matter as much as you want it tocertain heroes and play styles will heavily benefit from good aimit's by no means necessary though, lots of ways to play and be effective without having to aim

>>1395648Its magic upscaling technology for when you have to render the game at a lower resolution than your monitors native. Lower render res gives huge performance gains but usually looks disgusting, FSR2 (or whatever Nvidia's version is) aims to circumvent the disgusting visuals while keeping the performance.

so........ fav hero? build? hated hero?
>>1399248after 40 hours i feel like the game currently has terrible balancing and matchmaking heroes like nigger fire guy and turret lady are extremely easy to play and scale really well into the late game where other characters just don't so they aren't as viable you can win lane, have a crazy good early game but if you are against a bunch of adcs you will lose by midgame every game I played last night I had at least one teammate going 0/10 I get it the game is new but I don't understand how matchmaking can be so bad
>>1394185most of the top guides are honestly terrible
>>1399248This is about to be my third day playing, I've put 20 hours in so far but Kelvin is by far my favorite. I ALWAYS get the most kills in the game with this build.Kelvin's map presence is insane, after I get an early kill in lane I'm able to freely roam around and terrorize the entire map from the sky. Im surprised I dont see more people play him as a ganker, hes impossible to get away from, you have to kill him. Which isn't easy since he's going to be above you hitting every headshot
>>1399656I think it’s a new players who do very well, then get dropped into harder games and get stomped.Also, the matchmaking should be one of the best, since you are queuing as heroes, and likely have a general mmr, and a character specific mmrThe only problem I see is balance wise, characters scale differently… if a team is super heavy early game and they play pub tactics, then you’ll wind up with boomerang games, or stomps if the opposite is true.
I just started today, it melted my GPU and shut down my computer on the default settings after 2 gamesI like the policeman, tried the frozone guy and Elvis and they were both okay tooAt the moment I just can't stand playing against that sniper woman who does the rapid shots followed by the huge Assassinate beam that takes half my health and one-shots me. Only way to stay alive is to stay out of her sight entirely since nobody jumps on my lanes with me
>>1317394Please and thank you331975072
anyone else had abysmal GPU performance on this game? I've set everything to the lowest possible setting, even the resolution making it a blurry mess, and it uses just as much GPU as at 4K with no scaling. Are they just fucking up?

Maybe I just don't get the game, but I absolutely hate the way Deadlock is designed.>Moba level design>Everything is on a cooldown>Most of the guns play like submachine guns even when they are clearly a rifle>Characters with fists and swords can only use them during specials.>Uberupgrades style upgrade system.>Extremely irritating game mechanics like stun locks being used constantly.I don't think they can fix issues that are fundamental to the game's design.

His ice walk allows him to easily noclip at any time, going over any wall and insta killing the backline every fight.Then when low, can isolate an enemy in the middle of a fight with his ult and force a 1v1 heavily in his favor, and heal back to full. This gives enough time for ice walk to go back up for the escape or chase stragglers
>>1400636>Moba level designin which way? this game has verticality as a concept compared to other Mobas(unless you are talking about the lane part), if anything I wish the devs weren't so stingy with damage fallof to allow chars to snipe across the street.>Everything is on cooldownthere is some chars Like ivy or infernus that have charges or can "stack" ability usage over time in some of their skills, or some chars like Haze/Abrams that have 3 active and 1 passive.>most guns are Smgfair enough, at least the shotguns feel noticeably different, I think that is just a problem of balancing denying souls and how much of an impact fire rate is.>Chars with weapons or fist only using it during their specialanon... You know there is a melee button? hell as abrams you WANT to heavy melee at any oportunity.>Stun mechanicsYou can lower their power by buying items, at that point its just knowing what to buy to counterplay them, or if you are a Seven/haze that thinks going to the backline, then ulting isn't going to make you the prime target for every skill... I don't know what to tell you anon.
>Finds Deadlock invite on Steam>Checks it out>It's a shooter lanes moba>MFW I individually suck at MOBAs and shooters, so the number of impossible bad plays I'd make would reach new heightsWell I'm lost, beyond that single all bots game I played. Any general tips on how I'm supposed to play, or which characters are worth taking for jittery aim players?
>>1400825when in the buy menu you can see a selection of builds from the community, pick a popular one if you don't want to worry about that MOBA part. Play Mcguiness as well if you are that worried about aim and hopefully the turrets can help cover for your skill issue, or play Abrams and just shoot/punch at point blank
>>1400825When you start the game dont focus on killing the enemy player unless they are way out of position or feel like you can secure the kill. focus on getting last hits/killsteal the NPC kills in your lane/shoot the enemy orbs to deny the enemy of getting money and scale away from you, I have noticed that people focus too much on trying to kill the other party so they end up with way lower soul count and makes them prey for the other team.If you shoot the other player at the start, its to either get ground back, or force them to fall back so they lose souls by not being able to last hit your minions without risking their own life.oh, also If you can punch the npcs, do so, that secures the soul, and doesn't make it fly away, You will notice a enemy is in melee kill range when the lifebar gets whiter.
>>1400834>>1400841Sensible pointers! Thank you, anons.
>>1400848Also Lash might be good for you. Been playing a bit of him and mid to late game relies on using his abilities for damage, all of which don't require much aim beyond having them in front of you.
this game is so shitvalve is COOKED brother
>>1400896lash is an asshole/ganker/diver, you need to know when its a good time to dive in, because his skills only allow you to get in, not get out directly, his 2 does recharge his stamina but still. abrams/vindicta/Wraith are way more straightforward or dont need you to consider that much or isn't that much nuance when engaging.
>>1400903true, but I think anon's big concern was around FPS skill. You're right though might want to wait on lash until you have an understanding of when to act.

Who is the most Asshole hero and why is it Jacob Lash?
>>1391132i agree. I played 20hrs over 2 days and will play more. The shit is addicting and as someone who was looking for less stressful/hardcore alternative to Dota (which i play from time to time since its beta in 2012) i cannot be happier with what Valve is cooking with this one. I only wish system requirements won't be too high on release so my broke ass friends could also play it.
>>1395709i'm not sure if it's "Valve magic" or i'm just making shit up in my head, but none of them feels like DEI quota filler. You can practically swap gender/race of any character and still get an interesting hero to play.

>>1401354They simply designed the character that would fit the aesthetic they wanted, which is early 1900s with a mysticism/occult ambience. They didn't fall into the modern woke tropes of needing their black female characters with corn rows or dreadlocks, the side shave butch lesbian cut (I guess Lash has it), or the weird-ass vitiligo obsession.Every character looks like they belong to the world they created.

I got into Deadlock two days ago, a friend of mine invited me. I’m really enjoying the game so far, it’s definitely got a lot of stuff that needs to be changed but I’m hopeful for the future. I enjoy playing Ivy, she’s really cute.
Despite what fags here say I still have yet to see anyone put me in my place as Karry Kelvin. Either the MMR shit is a myth and not real, or Im going to be the next pro player. I honestly expect this shit to be nerfed. Kelvin's kit outclasses everyone else's in the game if as a hyper carry
>build ability duration, cooldown speed, bullet armor and firerate>play Vindicta as a fucking gunship, constantly flying literally the entire time because flight's duration can easily become longer than its cooldownWhy aren't you doing this?
>>1404389because I'm building SAM turrets and becoming an autocannon as the Irish-Italian mutt.
>>1404389First thing i did when i got the game. Although you dont even need cooldown reduction to make it work, so you're better off saving up for boundless spirit/spiritual overflow IMO
>>1404389Because I can just noclip up to you over your team as Kelvin every time you reveal yourself in the air and kill you in 3 bullets
>>1404389bebop/Lash will grab your ass and throw you into the ground, damage falloff is a thing, you will come across the wild Ivy/Seven ult combo and wont be able to escape, Someone will bring knockdown or Haze will sleep you.the only thing allowing you to be up there is the distance, You dont move fast enough while flying to truly dodge or juke people so you will still be in the ground while moving or pushing lane and then they will jump you.
>>1403901karry Kelvin. You mean, like this?
>>1404845post da build niggaI've been doing quicksilver reload: shoot -> ice -> shoot more
>>1405348 it's not about the build it's about getting so far ahead in souls that you just mop up the map with the noclip and make the enemy panic and spin their cameras skyward in fear when they hear your voice
for me it's playing support ivy in bot training
>be not-hitscan>against hit scan>lose lanefucking stupid, good balance design dipshits.
>>1405348Just build gun damage. No character in the game can counter you. If you're outnumbered you just ult and create 1v1s Dont even think about touching your ice beam after early game its a noob trap
>>1405403>fuck off to the jungle>rape hitscan nigger a couple minutes later
>>1404845get fukt sw*gt***le
>>1405407>lose walker
>>1405522that never matters I always trade a side camp for a walker and it always pays off in the end
>>1405403There are no hitscan characters (except bebop) buy high velocity if you're having that much trouble in the lane.
>>1405522walkers and guardians are absolute fucking dogshit and don't do enough damage to pressure anyone about to just lifesteal/speedblitz their opponent to death before getting out
>>1317393Dead game on arrival
>>1405405ice beam scales better than gun damage

My thoughts, give me yours please:>game is really good overal and will be a hit >I really do not like 4 lanes. Would prefer more traditional 5 player 3 lane over this. Getting from left to right takes ages. >we need clearer communication tools for telling the rando mouthbreathers exactly what to do.

>>1355819>It's less moba-y than a pure moba so it's target would mainly be people who aren't already into mobasI respectfully disagree. I think aside from the 3rd person view, it plays exactly like New York Demonic Dota - right down to the 'mid boss' (i.e. Roshan), denying being a massive part of the early game, and the focus on pushing lanes rather than just hunting enemy heroes.I'd recommend watching it for a while - you'll see what distinguishes high mmr players from low mmr players is mainly the discipline of constantly farming and using momentum to push lanes early. Shit players will pretend to lane for like 5 minutes then roam and brawl as soon as they get their first early game items. I think the 'in' is that it's a more focused and shorter experience than the war of attrition you tend to get in Dota. Less heroes, shorter respawns etc.
>>1408226>>1407941You know you can teleport from one far side to the other right? It's absurdly quicker going far left to far right via teleporter rather than heading all the way back to base
>>1409524that anon is a retard. Deadlock plays more like DOTA 2 than any other game. DOTA 2 is more similar to Deadlock than it is to even League of Legends
>>1407016Learn to balance fighting and looking at the map. It's basically a radar for the enemy team. Between that and the health bars at the top, you can get a good idea of where things are currently standing and where you should be focusing.but yes it is chaotic

>>1418197It's always so weird to me when someone's enjoyment of a game with dozen(s) of characters depends on being able to play the one character. I remember playing Overwatch with a couple of friends who played only a couple characters and were miserable whenever they were countered. Tried Marvel Rivals with the same friends and again they played exclusively 2 characters in a roster of 20+ (while complaining about characters that were countering them).Sounds like you like Paradox's kit in a vacuum and that's kind of it, so probably not best to force yourself to play a game you otherwise don't enjoy. Since you say shit like "game is meh otherwise."

any advice on how not to itemize like a retard?i had this same problem in league where id buy the wrong thing and id fuck myself over for the rest of the match
>>1424602There's basically two types of items.Your core, and situational purchases.Your core are the items you'd 'like' to buy in every game to do what you want to do as potently as possible.These are what you're trying to buy in every game that you play a certain build on a character.Your situational items are ones that you need to function depending on situations or matchups you unavoidably find yourself in consistently.Seven for example might consider something like Diviner's Kevlar a core item.He wants to be ulting into large groups.DK gives spirit lifesteal and a fat bullet shield on ultimate cast to help him survive the enemy group turning and shooting him, while also giving a bunch of spirit on cast to help him melt everyone faster.It just helps him do what he wants to do in every situation.On the other hand, Metal Skin would be a situational item.Even the bullet shield from DK could be overwhelmed if pretty much everyone on the enemy team is going gun build.Metal Skin making you bullet immune would be a massive boon to ulting on the enemy team, but only in that certain situation of your opponents almost all building heavily into gun damage.Basically, you just start with your core 16 items in mind, and decide what items need to be replaced and with what according to what issues you're expecting to have to deal with.Build orders are what make itemization so deep, but I'm not good enough to get into that properly.
Anyone else getting frequent quitters on there team? Happened 3 times in a row for me. I guess this is the consequence when you open the floodgates.
>>131739476561197993469922pls fren
>>1317394pretty please :)157051151
>>1424602I've never steered wrong mostly just picking the recommended items but I could be in the trash mmr who knows. Situationally I might buy different armour types depending on how much damage (that you can see on the right when you die) I am getting and if their best scoring players are more spirit or bullet. For tanky characters I like to buy toxic bullets or the thing that strips bullet resist
>>1330009presumably they know what they're doing, they made Dota and stuns there are good but not the only way to win a teamfight
>>1423929I would say it's just one (Wraith) but it's quite literally 2 as calico is about to be released somewhere down the line, Infernus is ltierally a fire demon
>>1317394202767141I promise to return the favor frens
>>1424602Selling an item gives 50% cash back. Use that knowledge wisely.>but im at a disadvantage now i lost 50% item valueIt happens to us all, farm harder or use the new item to secure kills to regain advantage you lost.
Can someone explain to me the lore that goes on each match? Are you really serving a demonic patron?I'm interested in this game but I don't to participate in an unironic occult ritual
>>14290651. Demons aren't real2. If you're that worried just command them to fuck in the name of Jesus Christ like the book tells you to.
>>1429068Fuck off*That being said...

>>1429065It's the in-universe equivalent of energy/industrial revolution/the STALKER Wishgranter.

>>1429309You don't know what a patron is lol. All the characters are essentially warlocks that are offering up part of their soul in exchange for any one wish to be granted by the patron. Ivy plans on using her wish to get a job as a waitress.
>>1429319We don't know if the wishes come true or not. And if they don't, then the patron is no different from the wishgranter or modern capitalism: nothing but a bag of lies that promises everything and kills you before you can ask why it hasn't delivered yet.https://youtu.be/RRh0QiXyZSk>Saint Peter don't you call me, for I can't go>I lost my soult to the company store.Having said that, I need art of Ivy in a waitress outfit.

They need to give up on this overbearing approach to "consistency" They should not have patched that laning trick so quickly without seeing how the meta could naturally evolve and counter it. They need to make a vast underground sewer system for the jungle with manholes to each lane. Add a jungler role, then put the middle lanes closer together to almost make it look like 3 lanes. Make the lanes vastly different, one lane will have a lot of cover/cars/ etc., the other will have tall buildings with multiple floors with windows you can shoot out of.The middle 2 lanes will make an hourglass shape, each team will have different looking minions.
>>1438155>Add a jungler rolefuck off
>>1438171better than two duo lanes nigger. The jungler should be a very strong role focused on ganks and not just mindless PvE
>>1438178Go back to League of Legends bud
Tired of playing alone, lads. I play mostly lash, i have a bit less than 50 hours in the game. Would like to play with a buddy.Europe.
>>1438180You know DOTA used to have a jungler too right newfag?
>>1438183Dota did not have a "jungler" role. There were a few heroes that could efficiently jungle early in the game. Most of the time it was just noobs griefing with Enigma or Nature's Prophet. There was a very short patch where jungle LC with iron talon was giga busted and guaranteed a 6 minute blink and ulti timing. Every game did not have a "jungler." I'm such a newfag that my first game of Dota 2 is in October 2011 and I've been playing ARTS game way, way before Dota 2 came out. Quit talking about shit you weren't even there for.
>>1438182europe too, what's your code
>>1438185So this drivel is why the game needs two duo lanes, the worst part of DOTA, instead of a jungler?
>>1438186215175019
>>1438190Junglers were the worst part of Dota which is why that already terrible playstyle which only 3-4 heroes could manage got further nerfed into the fucking gutter so retarded niggers would stop ruining games. Jungling is a retarded role. Duo lanes are not retarded, you are.
>>1438193Duo lanes are retarded and most people who play dota know Mid is where the real game is. A jungler that constantly harrasses and worries about counter jungling is infinitely more interesting, takes way more consistent team coordination and will make the map layout more interesting
>>1438197Mid is not the most desired role at all so you're completely wrong. Maybe 10 years ago. Now when you queue all roles around 30% of your games are a mid fill. Why? Because no one cares for that dog shit lane. Go play an unranked, dont click a lane, and don't say anything. Have fun being the mid player 9 out of 10 games. Having 4 fucking people playing a solo game would not be good for deadlock, you're a moron. You genuinely have no clue what you're talking about.
>>1437413look his bio up for yourself then?
>>1438197>PVE is better than team fights in the team-based multiplayer PVP gameretard alert
>>1438198>Mid is not the most desired role at alleveryone heard "mid or feed", short for "let me go mid or i go feed the enemy"nobody has ever heard "jungle or feed" in the history of dodo
>>1438198Yes now DOTA has become more focused on PvE, boring AFK farming until PA can 1v5.>>1438218referring to him as "they" for a multitude of possible reasons is not the same as showing devotion to your post modern religion.>>1438274You are illiterate This would cause more fights
>>1438735Yeah, 10 years ago mid was popular. Now it is an undesirable role. When "jungling" was sort of a thing it was usually "me jungle pick solo" and 4 players immediately losing some morale as they knew they had a retard on their team and were guaranteed to lose a lane.>>1438780Dota is absolutely not some "boring pve afk farm fest" in this patch where PA "1v5s" PA is not even good in "the meta" right now. Right now the spotlight is all on the Pos 3 who gets to be a big tanky nigger that builds auras and still does a ton of damage.
>>1317393GARGOYLE SEXO
Got another one just out!Had to work with: "Jacob Lash, is an A-hole" and his voice lines, I think it turned out greathttps://youtu.be/IxbaRd85Bko
every update makes this game less and less fun...
>>1450224Gun Kelvin definitely feels like shit to play now, and the item changes are annoying
>>1317394ElJugos@protonmail.compls & ty
>>1418197You just need two chatacters you like. Your main is highest prio and the second character is lowest prio. Then you put Haze as your second prio.You will never get haze, you will almost always get your main and sometimes get your second character.It works because Haze has near 100% pickrate and many people have her high prio.
>>1450224They are just making the game harder by removing braindead elements and builds that are not fun to play against, even if those are fun builds for the players that use them.
>>1452387yeah, the game is more "balanced" and they probably listen to stupid pros or sthg like that that only want fuckin balance even tho it makes the game less and less fun, well I had fun for first 100 hours but now I have to look for a nother game to play I guess
How do you keep up with this game? First, my moba brain kicked in, trying to secure every last hit while also trying to deny every last hit from them.Then my shooter brain took over, always trying to land a few shots whenever somebody was in my line of sight.Also, the healthbar is pretty much right in my blindspot.
>>1453820>How do you keep up with this game?I don't really know what I'm doing, I just build for damage
>>1453219Sounds like you enjoyed being able to learn the game quicker than the average player, but now that people have caught up by reading the publicly available info, you are no longer getting easy games and have bowed out at the notion of a challenge.
>>1453913not really, I still have same win ratio as at the beggining, I sitll carry my team almost every time, I had way more fun losing to some op shit than winning now, at the start everyone experimented with the heroes and every game felt diffirent now each match feels the same every game you see same heroes and it's just dull and boring
>>1453820Honestly while its usually dumb advice, you might just need to play more to get used to the laning phase. You should also try out different characters and learn them so you know matchups you might go up against on your mains, and what they might build and their playstyles, then you exploit that. Though when I first get to lane I try to put pressure on the enemy super hard, focus them entirely, burn 300 health off of them. It does two things, firstly it shows they have to respect me in the lane and I'm not going to let them lane for free. Secondly, it makes them have to play far more passively. When I have control of the lane it means I can farm much easier and it means I can also kill their healer minion much easier meaning they trade with me even worse. Towers in Deadlock are kind of a pushover so it means I can continue to bully them while pushing the lane and denying their farm and farming easier. Also, once you have lane control, you should be going for nearby jungle camps and trying to gank other lanes near to you. You don't even need to kill the enemy laners, just establish control for your team as well. Kills aren't worth a lot, minions are. Your game plan should be focused around maintaining control of lanes and jungle camps even into the mid game. Don't make stupid plays just trying to get kills, the reward isn't worth the risk. Just keep farming and pushing lanes.
>>1454076that's the worst part of the game farming minions is way too good now, risky plays should be rewarded if they work and punished if you fail, farming minions as meta is terrible
Lash and Micky vs Warden and Kelvin. How fucked is my lane?
>>1317393Is the Tumblr gremlin really a part of the game? Is the game only successful because it has the Valve name attached to it?
I find the aesthetic/theme underwhelming. Old timey-ish city with steampunk sorta and gods? Not very focused. Character designs are mostly pretty boring too. Compared to SMITE it all feels very drab. I dunno, just doesn't have the x factor I look for in a game.I don't think this is going to last that long.
>>1432440>>the map does not fit the gameDo you mean layout wise or aesthetic wise? I think the layout is fine. But it's fucking boring to look at. Doesn't go with the characters or theme.
>>1459723>Is the Tumblr gremlin really a part of the game?Yes but in game it is ugly as sin and has no sex appeal. It's literally Gollum. The fanart is trying to give it some appeal but it really has none. None of the characters in this game have sex appeal.
>>1461472This is going to be the next big thing I guarantee it
>>1461573>becomes next big thing>doesn't need any marketing>we never get any official s2fm shorts>Masses never understand the themeSad
>>1461573No it won't. It will filter hero shooter players because of the MOBA elements and it won't retain the MOBA purists who will likely go back to Dota/LoL/HOTS etc. This is a flash in the pan fad that will get a year tops of hype once it officially releases and then will slowly fade into irrelevancy.But I mean, it will be "the next big thing" for a short time so you are not wrong. I just don't think that it will last long.
What exactly is the fun factor of this game once you've tried out a few characters and basically seen all the builds from the enemies? It's literally a snowball simulator with no way to either forfeit a match, nor to turn the tables around past a certain point. It's a slot machine with a 50% chance of winning, where most of the matches is a borefest of you shredding everything with no need to go back and spend the 10k souls, or a 20-minute torture of being unable to do anything without being three-shot by a team which is already 30k souls in the lead but refuses to finish the game.
>>1465446BaitYou can turn around a bad match if your team counterbuilds correctly and starts coordinating properly
>>1465446>nor to turn the tables around past a certain poinIts extremely easy to comeback in this game you are clueless. You just described League of Legends
>>13173944st.flanking859@aleeas.compretty please
>You're gonna have to figure out a way to deal with Shiv!he has 70k souls and he's 21 - 0 what do you want man
>>1466810nvm already got one
>>1467710Don't let him get 70k souls and 21-0? What kind of question is that lol
>>1466096"Extremely easy" to make a comeback? Literally about 80% of matches end up with one team torturing the other team with a snowballing lead. It's not fun being on either of the teams.
>>1467830Aaah the "how did you end up in that state" argument. Have you actually played the game? Like, once? Against a real human that's not a bot?
>>1369011>>1369011every piece is competently done by academ-esque procedure. The pieces are put together poorly and 40% of the game needs to be left on the cutting room floor >>1407941>>1409525>requires teleporters to make map not miserable
ranked is live and the matchmaking is the worst i've ever seen in a videogame. strap in
>>1470490It should be better once people actually get their ranks
Basically, every week there's a trending build that just means a default win in 90% of the cases. It was Haze a few weeks ago, then Bebop spam, and now it's Shiv. Amazing genre really, essentially a slot machine.
>>1471406Noticing this too. more and more annoying bugs are introduced with each patch as well, broken hitboxes, visual glitches, broken audio cues Might be too early to put effort to git gud right now
>>1461472It's occult themed you retard. Clearly you have no idea what you're talking about so stfu.
>>1317394FC: 85521658I beg of you
So like halfway though the game everyone on the enemy team starts having a shitload of health and 1 shotting me with abilities and I can't kill them anymore any tips?ivy main btw
>In game Ivy isn't hot. Only the trash fan 'art' that turns her into weeb bait makes her look good.Can the fake, poser monsterfuckers please vacate the thread?
>constantly report obvious cheaters>banned from reporting featureThanks icefraud. When the ban is off, I'll keep forcing your to watch every match.
>>1475665You don't. The balancing makes zero sense. Teams can just spiral out of control and become literally unkillable suddenly 20 minutes into a match.>buy specific one off items that don't do shit when the team suddenly gets a 20k soul lead out of nowhere
Buff/Nerf suggestions, what character do you guys want changed and how?
>>1478324entire early game is trash, killing mininons with a fist giving more gold is dumbest idea, it makes sitting next to a turret and don't take a risk a meta
>>1478870I'll take you one more, entire economy is trashJungling isn't fun locked into 3rd person, advanced movement is just holding shift but harder, >>1475665and the moba poison pill of farm disparity feels worse when you get baited into thinking the shooter means perfect execution will overcome the massive TTK
I played DOTA 2 way too much a decade ago and got burned out on MOBAs forever. Deadlock got leaked, seemed fun, and it was so fresh and fun playing my first 20 or so games. A month later is just feels like another moba slog because all the fresh players realized earlier than me that it's just another fucking moba. I REALLY want to enjoy this game but I just can never win. I was consistently getting 1-2 accolades postgame but now the skill floor is too high for me to keep up. I'm not saying it's a bad game, it's just a niche genre that I'm shocked Valve is taking *another* chance on.
>>1461475>None of the characters in this game have sex appeal.GILF Geist begs to differ
1. Seven's balls should be larger. These are way too small and they are completely useless, making him a very unpopular choice to play because one of his slots is basically wasted on a tiny speck of dust that remains static the entire time and only starts scaling after about three hours of collecting souls.2. Abrams should have a thicker skin by default, i.e. higher bullet and spirit resist. He's too easy to kill, and that cripples a team who has Abrams since it would've been much better to use that player slot on a different character.3. Shiv needs a buff and less viable playstyles. Currently, there's a certain ceiling that he reaches in early game and no matter how much you farm beyond that point, it's just not worth it. If you play Shiv, you might as well just leave the game after the first nine minutes since your character just can't keep up with the rest.There, I've fixed the game. Hire me, Valve. I can tweak your YAML configs.
>>1318777>Would supporting this game hurt TF2?No. I won't be playing since I think it looks like a shitty game, but there's no real reason to boycott it.
>>1318777holy fucking shit can tf2 fans just shut the fuck up for once i feel ashamed to have 1000hours in tf2 knowing that people like you walk this earth
>>1478324wraith is the most low skill character i can easily top frag without any real trouble press 4 press 3 spam 1 while holding m1 and use 2 to get away and you can do this shit every minute

this game sucks
Yes, Valve, please always put Talon, Vindicta and Lash in the same team. That's a great way to make me play more!
