Won't someone think about the YouTubers who need to make "SICK NADESHOTS" and "OMG M16 OVERPOWERED?! [Shocked face emoji]" videos by crushing noobies in a non-SBMM system?

Microsoft straight up acquired ZeniMax, which means they also hold Bethesda, id Software and Arkane. Huge coup for them to potentially hold exclusivity for some massive franchises like TES, Fallout, Doom, Wolfenstein and Dishonored.

Well, the other headline it could be is "Trump DOJ defunds NYC police" so it's all a bit hilarious

I haven't played subnautica but the studios previous game was a heavily starcraft influenced rts/fps hybrid where you could play as a zergling that can run on walls and ceilings. It was a cool game but I'm glad they moved on to something that actually makes money.

I get the feeling that I am either too stupid to comprehend this or so far out of the loop, that I don't even understand this tweet even with explanations.
Wouldn't people with all these character traits like ranked MM because it's a competitive environment?

The vets want to have fun destroying noobs, that's pretty much it. There is very little actual competitive interest in CoD even among experienced players.

i mean yeah, but making terrible arguments is totally nothing to be confused about in this day and age

also i think hes talking about bad players wanting to play bad players instead of playing vs good players
which makes no sense because if bad players should want to play vs good players, good players should want to play vs good players

So it is just a cry for help, so good players don't have to buy multiple games to smurf?

Well yeah, but I thought everybody is a god gamer in CoD, and a dick measuring contest is the best way to show it. Guess my perception of that franchise was wrong then.

Adding a number makes a lot of people uneasy.
If you're not playing ranked, are people really trying ? And if you are, your level and how good you are at the game is showed. The impact of playing and losing a game is lessened when you don't see any difference in your stats.

From what I'm reading on twitter there are basically two sides: "hardcore" players saying that ranked MM is a cowardly concession to noobs, and a vast number of casual players who are saying they don't want to be matched with good players every game. Why the good players don't want to play with other good players is beyond me.

Didn't Dota have its own doomsayers when it introduced public ranks and MMR?
