Ok, so here is the real question.

Do you think SMBB is necessary in fps pvp games? I do no think it is. PVP is competitive, there is only sweat, no casual mode. You want to win, get better. SBMM means the guy who spent 500 ho...

@reconzero Ok just for reference Titanfall is done. It's never coming back. Destiny is headed there too btw. Yeah I'd say that a lot of what is keeping fps alive is actually...wait for it....streamers.....like you hate lol. They do good things and it is often over looked. Me, I would kick Aztecross' * irl lol but not in Desiny 🙂

Please describe the "good things" streamers do because I need the refresher. From where I'm standing they're pretty exclusively corrosive.

I don't care if you have 56 kills in one match. If you can't get #57 because #57 killed you then you're still dead. Which means you lost. You're just a dead loser.

There are two things I hate about this game. One is streamers and the entire streaming culture. Two is the very mistaken idea that kills are somehow more important than winning. I guess the second one is understandable as most players can sort of wrap their heads around the possibility that they might get a kill or two in the normal course of a match. But winning, they seem to believe, is some sort of strange alchemy that's beyond their abilities or control. So they spend every single match they play making decisions they think will net them kills, and they do it without even realizing that most of those decisions are actively pushing the win farther away from them. And to bring one and two together: it's the streamers that are largely responsible for creating that idiotic mindset, the mindset that says if you get a bunch of kills and then die that you're somehow still a winner. Sorry, but no.

Sorry. Rant over.

Sorry. I know that wasn't what you were trying to say, and I jumped on it kinda hard because of the "streamer" discussion I'm having with Unitee01.
