Had a really bad time competitive solo queuing on Overwatch last night. I kept feeling like I had to be Mercy because no one else would. Problem: I’m not very good as Mercy.

I only dropped about 50 SR from a 1-4 session so I don’t think I was playing too badly. Silver is just the pits. I will never escape!

I hate my PC. How did that last ditch payload defence work out?

looooooooool welcome to bronze.

You can’t be demoted, joke’s on you!!!

My new housemate is trying to convince me to get overwatch. HMMMM

#1455

If we get any more we’re gonna need a separate thread.

#1456

ooh i might play wow though :confused:

Agreed. Bloodborne all over again.

Talking of Sony, how disappointing was their conf last night? BORING.

Crowviet Union Update #3:

A bunch of blue monkeys I made a defensive pact cracked open an ancient tomb on their side of the map, which consequently summoned a vast swarm of energy beings that immediately began atomising every non-energy being race in the galaxy. As they had that defensive pact, my poor Cawbynistas were second on their list. Didn’t even get any screenshots of the admittedly spectacular destruction thanks to Steam refusing to let me for some reason. Pure fuming about it tbh. Lesson learned though: Don’t make defensive pacts with guys with the Reckless Explorer perk. (Also don’t go completely gung ho with mods, because some of the shit they can introduce is ridiculous.)

Started again. These mugs are right on my doorstep. Not a good start.

Sony refusing to allow Minecraft and Rocket League to have cross platform multi-player is a pretty huge dick move

I love the irony that they’ve chosen the Nintendo Defence for their decision to ignore the way everything’s going just at the time Nintendo have abandoned it.

Sorry Sony, you were doing really well this gen, but history will find you to have made a stupid decision here.

I know right! There was a weird moment in the Microsoft press conference during the minecraft trailer where they showed a Switch made in minecraft and that’s an indicator of where the market is and needs to go honestly. The more cross compatibility we have the more people win.

Still great news for people who own PC/Switch and Xbox One

As if I don’t get enough abuse off kids on Rocket League on the Sony servers…

Now I have my PC sort of working (if not entirely stable) I’m rolling up my sleeves and tackling the backlog. First up: The Talos Principle. I loved the first few hours. It’s all very Portal but with pleasingly pulpy sci-fi overtones. Already encountered a puzzle that melted my brain for a good half hour.

Also ARMA III is down to a tenner so I might pick up and try the Battle Royale mod my mates have been evangelising about for the past couple of months. “I spent all last night hiding in a bush! Then I died!” Can’t wait.

Played this and loved it, but caused actual rifts in our friendship group that still haven’t healed entirely.

Blight of the Immortals was good fun, and less damaging as it’s co-op against the game.

The Talos Principle is amazing. I completed the main game but then got really stuck on the Road to Gehenna DLC, which is maybe too difficult.

#1468

Ha yeah it can have that effect all right! I haven’t tried blight of the immortals yet, looks fun though!

I realised the thing I said earlier about needing 8 players isn’t true, we could play with any number…

#1469

Considering how long I spent on a couple of puzzles before I’d even cleared area A I’m not sure the DLC will be for me then. I’m really enjoying the main game though.
