A nerf to Time Wall? I guess the devs watched MikaelS’s Halloween frag video…

Take your pick!

It sounds like you don’t understand what whiteness theory is. It is not an argument that only white people can be racist.

What are you referring to? I searched for this and the results were just the CMG story. That wasn’t even proof that the technology existed, let alone was being used.

You focused on the wrong part of my comment. The issue isn’t that you have Google accounts or use YouTube, it’s that you seem to have very little understanding of how much data is being collected about you through these avenues. Instead you focus on some conspiracy theory about phone microphones which is still yet to be proven despite years of technologically illiterate people telling us that “the only way they could have known that is if they were listening to me!!!”. I don’t understand how you get to the point of posting in a niche privacy community whilst still being so completely clueless and misinformed.

Person in a privacy community using YouTube and multiple Google accounts thinks the only way they are being tracked is through phone microphones…you can’t make this shit up.

From what I’ve read, the Walker model is from an earlier version of the game and unlikely to return.

I agree that this circular echo-chamber effect is problematic, particularly in forums like reddit and Lemmy where early user voting often determines the tone of a discussion. Too many people assume a comment is correct or incorrect based on its score, or the number of similar comments, rather than whether a credible source was provided that supports whatever claim was made. It’s particularly bad in privacy and security communities because so many of the people involved have a higher level of base paranoia that makes them vulnerable to conspiracy theories and misinformation.

Yeah it’s like that for me too. If I want to play someone else I need to set her as lower priority because I’ll almost certainly end up with her otherwise.

It is quite fascinating seeing how quickly they make changes to heroes from patch to patch at this stage of development. I was 100% sure that Shiv and Bebop would be buffed this patch because of all the complaining from people who main them, and equally sure Paradox and McGInnis would be nerfed. You can almost predict the changes before they happen because they’re so often in line with the majority of feedback or the amount of clips people post of clearly stupid mechanics (Paradox AoE spam clips since the last patch, for example). The only thing I’m surprised by is that there were no changes to Vindicta, I thought for sure she’d receive some small nerfs again.
