Why do people still DDOS in 2016?
>>342084775
Some people take satisfaction from doing something repetitive and unsophisticated that prevents people from enjoying the game.
Really no different from playing Bastion.
>>342085047
I find this hilarious.
>>342085047
>>342085047
bastions not even that hard to counter you fucking scrub
>>342085047
>>342085047
>He still can't counter Bastion
Hi Bronzie
it's kind of hilarious seeing the asshurt on twitter
>>342084775
because you paid $40 for a multiplayer only game thats as deep as the shallow end of a public pool
>>342084775
Script kiddies at it again I see
is that what happened?
i though my internet was shitting the bed.
>>342085158
GRR IM SO MAD >_<
>>342085047
Why am i laughing so much at this
>>342084775
Console version is still up just fine ;^)

He's a pubstomper.
He requires only the mildest amount of coordination and communication to be unviable but good fucking luck getting any of that in a pub game.
He's the w+m1 pyro of Overwatch.
>>342085047
first post always best toast
>>342084775
It's the same every summer.
how does a multibillion dollar megacorp get their servers blown up by one person
>>342085661
pretty much. kids are out of school and made some money mowing lawns. what better way to spend it than renting a botnet?
>>342085561
no its not. PS4 servers are lagging real bad
>>342085806
Isn't a single person.
No idea how a DDOS functions?
>>342085598
genji, who I imagine is a common pub pick, counters him easily
>there are people who still DDoS just for "fun" in 2016
>a simple act of just using a botnet they most likely bought with their parents money
>not only this but they actually give themselves some kind of elite haxx0r name
>they also make a twitter account with their elite haxx0r name
>they actually use this twitter to shit talk companies and make 'epic tweets' about what they're doing
>they unironically think they're cool for doing this
It's just so bizarre. They are literally just edgy teenagers and nothing more, but because this is 2016 the internet is so easy to use and everyone has access so kids like this can give themselves an over inflated ego. They just have no self awareness at all, i wonder if they'll look back at this shit when they're older and just cringe like we do now.
>>342085047
I was thinking of Bastion the game and was confused, but I guess it's a character in Overwatch?
>>342085882
Yeah I just got kicked out mid match and can't reconnect.
>>342085278
So blizz just needs a Genji to redirect the DDOS?
>>342085912
He's a good option but genji requires skill to play competently, and Bastion can always just not shoot him while his counter is up. Genji's shurikens don't exactly do a lot of burst damage.
>>342086012
Bastion is a character that can turn into a stationary turret and deal really high damage with minimal effort
>>342085912
When will people learn the actual definition of "counter" instead of flinging it everywhere, thinking they know what they're talking about
>>342084775
He'd better pay /v/ mods to delete every shitty overwatch thread outside of /vg/.
As long as people react strongly to these sort of things the attackers will continue with the same shit.
If people just didn't post "OH MY GOD I CANT PLAY BECAUSE A TEEN THINKS HE'S BEING COOL FUCK HIM THE BASEMENT NERD LOSER FUCK" there would be little satisfaction from screwing servers up.
>you will never be an edgy 16 year old script kiddie ever again
>>342085047
This post reeks of rebbit
>Lel I hacked your Curiosity Rover for a sec there NASA, just lettin' ya know.
Fuck that fuck, they get the shit end as it is with fed funding, and each program only has an alotted time it can run, and you think it's fun to halt discovery and space exploration with your l337 skillzz.

Wait did someone actually do this?
Literally why? People who just haxxx XD for fun and don't do it to make a point or to actually gain anything are cancer
>>342087183
shut up faggot.

The problem is not that Bastion is hard to counter, the problem is that Bastion is not fun to fight against (same with Widowmaker).
>>342087362
>doing illegal shit at other's expense for fun is okay
At least people who hax to steal money have a reason.
>>342087362
Do you murder dozens of people irl because it's fun?
>>342087482
When it's at the expense of pissy blizzdrones, sure it is.

Just flank him you idiot.

not a rebuttal, kys redditor.
>>342087979
getting withdrawals from having to go 5 minutes without overwatch?
>>342087531
Bastion is a nessecary evil, the fact that he pisses damage is needed to keep reinhardt in check. Without bastion reinhardt could walk up to absolutely any point that he wants to and nobody could do shit about it.
>spent most of the night watching Lebron win for da land
>want to kick back with OW
we are all witness
>>342084775
As someone who plays blizzard games and can't play currently I find this funny.
>>342088210
>Walk right through the Reinhardt's shield
>Shoot him right in the fucking face
>Probably charges you but misses and drops his shield anyway
Yeah, nothing you could do about him without bastion, right?
idunno but I hope they're satisfied inconveniencing people trying to play a game that only has a casual mode at the moment
it's not even preventing anything important, to like, anybody
>>342088064
dude people wanna know more about space
fucking with NASA shit should be a death sentence
>>342084775
I just realized that his fucking twitter handle is Applejack.
A fucking Brony scriptkiddie DDOSing people. No fucking surprise there.
>>342084775
>Applejack
Not surprised a brony is an actual retard. I hope he has fun while it lasts because Blizzard's lawyers will be pretty deep in his asshole soon
>>342084775
>It's funny when people do it to games I don't play, but God forbid they do it to the uncreative trash I play!
The entire Blizzard staff should just livestream a mass suicide. That would actually be entertaining.
>>342087096
People need attention so much that it has caused them to seek out the few beautiful things in the world and destroy them.
Humanity can be so inhumane.
>>342089767
kek so fucking mad. How does it feel to be a joyless edgelord?
>>342087832

Calm down guys he probably just really likes cereal.

headshot that blue thing on him, silly.

>>342090170
Are we supposed to care you walked up to a Bastion with someone who couldn't kill him and he rekt you?
>>342084775
Why do companies still produce 20 tickrate or 30 FPS shenanigans?
>People actually waste their time just preventing others from having fun
Seriously, why? You have to be some loser to actually have fun by ruining other peoples free time. People have jobs, and want to relax by playing the games they want, and we get these no life cunts playing leet hackers thinking they are hot shit
Didn't some of these people get arrested or some shit for fucking with playstation?

Seriously, bastion is hard as fuck to counter without coordination.

>implying that any bastion shoots at a genji without knowing reflect is on cd

whats it like in the gutters of mmr?
He would have a name like that
