Anyone know any upcoming comp/esports games (ideally shooter/FPS)
I've heard currently of Alara Prime, The Finals, Boundry and researched to see if I could find anymore but haven't had much luck.

ironically a "meta" is bad for most comp games

i heard about this, only reason i'm not really into it is for the same reason i'm not into valorant - largely personal issues, not related to toxicity

shatterline
as someone who has put about 100 hours into shatterline no
the devs are actually clueless
and its a pve based game. To actually have a chance against me in multiplayer you need to put atleast 50 hours into pve to get the shit i have
its not comp
as a pve game its great tho

ironically a "meta" is bad for most comp games
?? What top game do you play that doesn't have meta?

?? What top game do you play that doesn't have meta?
To start I never said they don’t exist. Games like apex and Fortnite have a number of different play styles and no “clear meta” if you ask most pro players if they like metas or not most would likely say no. It’s not good for the longevity of a game to be played the same way every day for a entire season straight. I think that’s why apex, Val and Fortnite have managed to keep a decent comp scene. Is because all 3 of these games don’t have a definitive meta
Should add something being strong and run most games doesn’t mean it’s meta
Pump shotgun for example it’s strong was ran all the time but was not nessarly the meta
lone needle
In the definition of meta, val quite literally follows a pretty strict meta, and wouldn't you say building is a meta? I haven't ever played apex so I can't comment on that. But from my knowledge meta is a game mechanic abused by the community for a higher win percentage

In a way your correct but no fundamental mechanics of a game can’t be “meta” so building isn’t “meta” there might be specific “meta” builds (think like season 4 ramp rushing) in like the past 3 years Fortnite hasn’t had a set in stone meta. A game that has a terrible meta issue is over watch. This is the best example of metas being bad for a game. There’s a massive difference between the best way to play the game and a “meta”
Normally if the other team is running meta the only way to counter is running meta yourself
Over time u start meta slaving and that’s not good for a comp game
lone needle
mechanics isnt just movement/shooting lol
it can be character selection/ weapon selection/ grenade usage, stuff like that too, but i understand what you're saying.
lone needle
mechanics is not defined as only movement/shooting.

Or how u get the gun

But it’s not the gun itself

That’s for dev
For the player it’s your aim and movement
Unless a game has another core mechanic
Like fort with building
Game mechanics and player mechanics differs
A game mechanic is for devs
Player mechanics are your inputs
That’s how it’s been for years
lone needle
soooo

Movement and aim normally
lone needle
everyone colloquially understands that is the exact definition? i dont think so..

Not my words but I mean u can ask anyone what mechanics are in video games
I mean go ask #general
I bet they say the same thin
lone needle
just from my experience with a few top players in 2 different games mechanics are considered game knowledge, movement, clicking, like literally everything in the game.
thats confirmation bias. lol

Knowledge is game sense
Positioning is game sense
Game sense and mechanics go hand and hand
But are not the same thing

Im so confused
Like we were having a normal conversation debating a little

mechanics is not defined as only movement/shooting.
Mechanics is the way the player creates input into the game in a timed situation, which can be movement, shooting, ability usage, etc. but it will not be the way you customize a character or class and where you decide to go on the map in order to cut an opponent off, that is all part of tactics and is an intellectual battle.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_mechanics
This is the same as saying “may I” instead of “can I” except as the inverse of that concept. The root word used in both cases has the same meaning but it is being used in two separate contexts. You are referring to the mechanics of the game, while he is referring to the mechanics of a player that are used in the game. When a player interfaces with his keyboard and selects an input to switch to his MG from his sniper rifle he mechanically must select the key he bound for that, and after that he must take aim using his mouse to aim at the target and click with the left mouse button when his aim is over the target. Say he misses his shot, his next mechanical move would be to press the correct keys to get behind cover. Would his next mechanical move be to peek out after a set time has passed? No, that is a mental calculation and is intellectually decided, so his next mechanical move would be to initiate the peek itself whenever he intellectually decides to initiate that mechanical move to peek, and he may jiggle peek or peek normally or long peek which would all be mechanical moves but his choice in which peek type to use would also be an intellectual decision. I hope this helps clear confusion.

What? Do you know where you are? Your first message in this was talking shit too me
Ur clueless
We were having a debate about meta ironically being bad for games (because it is multiple game devs have stated this)
Then we started debating about what makes up mechanics in video games
Then u typed this out
FYI stringing random words together doesn’t make a roast. It makes u look stupid and uneducated.
Just pipe down
No one wants u here me and @lone needle were having a great conversation
If ur not gonna add anything to the debate and be outright ignorant then just don’t bother typing at all.

Its probably out already but Gundam Evolution was mentioned by baranox, guy who makes bf series look like aimlab. Looks to me as an OW/val crossover with something similar to val movement speed (in pro league) and dash function plus OW like abilities outside of shooting

apex has a huge scan meta. sorry for bringing the thread back to this point but I just had to comment on it, scans are really broken in apex rn because with a little bit of gamesense you know where to scan and when to check your heartbeat sensor (seer). gunplay wise (since this server is about aim) youre right there is no clear meta but there are a few guns that outperform other guns in that class by a lot especially r301 > most ars and the new nemesis is just so broken because its way too easy to use, you basically never see someone running around with 'odd' weapons in high ranks because there is clearly a better option
