    I played my first game with a Scope earlier.

    It will be my last.
    You didn't give it enough time, though if you like holding a charge for long stretches then it definitely won't fit your play style. In practice the FOV reduction doesn't matter to me. You charge until you have enough damage to kill, aim, and fire. I rarely use fully charged shots and never have my view obscured for long enough to matter.

    I think of scoped chargers as the lovechild of the Huntsman and standard rifle in Team Fortress 2, though it is more like the former with a laser and scope. And no pinning enemies to walls :sad:

    Looks like the commercial tie-ins that were in the Japanese splatfests are starting now elsewhere. I wonder when they'll start happening in the different EU zones, and what they'll be with. Billy's Pan Pizza?

    I never really cared about Transformers (the only series I remember following was Beast Wars, which conveniently came on while I was waiting for the school bus), so I'm inclined to vote for Team Marie.

    Maybe change my name to "For The Royalty!" during the splatfest, which works in two ways :biggrin:

    But whomever I decide on, I'll get some pics of my inkling Amiibos posing with the team and the victors.

    Don't care much about transformers either, so i think i'll vote for Team Callie (which would be the first since Cats v Dogs for me), which means Autobots.

    I like the Autobots but I've never liked their logo as much as the Decepticons' logo. Gotta side with Prime, though.

    I'm going to bet Autobots are going to win the popular vote by a ton, so maybe Decepticons to keep queue times down?

    Not that I'm keeping up to date on Transformers but I'm not familiar with those designs of Optimus and that other dude-I-don't-know on the splatfest board. Is this some tie-in to some Transformers cartoon or video game from Hasbro?

    Autobots or Decepticons.

    Well that's just prime.

  • Mr KhanMr Khan Not Everyone WAHHHRegistered User regular
    My feeling is Decepticons will win popularity by a bit, because how many people really liked the bland hero-guys, it's like rooting for Skeletor or Cobra Commander compared to He-Man or GI Joe. Who's cooler?

  • Fleur de AlysFleur de Alys Biohacker Registered User regular
    Except the Autobots are really popular, especially with kids.

    I'm definitely voting for the jet over the truck, though.

    Yeah, always ask yourself what the kids would vote for. Kids almost always pick the hero.

    Well, one of the Europe choices was North Pole or South Pole. So basically Santa vs Not Santa.

    And South Pole freakin' won.

    A vote for Autobots is a vote for bots that don't transform into a friggin pistol.

    And South Pole freakin' won.

    Except, as I pointed out, European Santa doesn't live at the North Pole, he lives in Lapland which is somehow an actual place and not a chain of strip clubs.
    So it was actually "pointless floating sea ice" vs "mysterious hidden continent" and also polar bears vs penguins.

    ...because dragons are AWESOME! That's why.

    I dunno about you, but the villains are largely disliked by the kids because the villains are the bad guys: they are mean! How often do you find kids liking characters that are mean?

    That said, I still don't think Cobra Commander is cool. Him and Skeletor are clowns at worst, buffoonish bullies at best. They might be entertaining, but entertaining and cool aren't the same thing.

    Besides, one side has the Dinobots, and dinosaurs are cool. Therefore Autobots are cool. QED

    I don't think there's anything I know less about than Transformers.

    I will probably pick the Decepticons because bad guys are usually more interesting.

    Decepticon will be more popular with older players.

    Movie viewers might not know this but in the shows the Decepticons ahve personalities and are interesting.

    Its a way to convey his character traits without saying them. Starscream is an arrogant obnoxious idiot that cant even hide his true intentions from his target.He has to sound like that
