Again, comparing video game violence to film or literature violence is a dead end. Books and film aren't about you they are about other characters. You are not experiencing your story. You are experiencing theirs. There's a difference.
While I agree that gaming should be handled differently in Aus it would be totally naive to model it after or compare it to Film and TV classification ratings. They have about as much in common as Film and Literature do and their ratings should be treated as such.

[quote]True. I'm not from Australia, but I agree that TV news pwn all pron and horror films [/quote] 100% untrue. TV is one of the most censored forms of media out there. In over 20 years of watching Australian TV I have NEVER, EVER seen anything even close to the violence in video games.
[quote]Valve is an american company, steam is an american service, with an amercian store that sells us things in american currency... I think this refusal of service is going to have a fairly limited impact on the ability of anyone who wants it to get the game.[/quote] Valve is bound by the laws of the country that it sells it's products in. And in the case of L4D if you did get your hands on a copy to play you wouldn't find any Aus se
We'll have an R18+ rating one day. It's kind of a big job actually putting one into practice though. And one that costs millions of dollars. It's in the "too hard" basket for the people with any power to change it at the moment. We have similar problems with the draconian classification outlines for film aswell.

[quote who="itsmevic" reply="32" id="2373112"]QOT the worst you say?...lol, not by far my young paddawong. She is probably one of the best. (If you need to ask why there is no help for you.)[/quote] She is the worst. All of the other DG's are significantly better. If you had a team of LE/QoT/UB vs LE/Sedna or Oak/UB and all players were equal skill the second team would win. This has been discussed several times in several difference threads
Lol. How embarassing. Oh well. Was a good game but we were always going to lose from the start. 2 experienced players with 2 new guys is a far harder win to pull off than 3 experienced players - all with top tier DG's too. Noswej suprised me how well he did as QoT with no shield though. He played it very well.

How did QoT not get the number 1 spot? I think your testing is flawed.

It sounds like both of you need to harden the fuck up. You lost a game, shit was said, you were both probably in the wrong. Live and learn. Move on.
[quote]Like a lot of people have already said above, she takes patience and her best role is support.[/quote] Which is exactly her problem. EVERYBODY that has at least the basest of experience with her knows that's she's a support DG. Which is fine early game and against random teams.HOWEVER, if you go up against a team that communicates well and knows each other, QoT is a detriment to a team in 3v3 rather than a boon. Shield is a great tool when used on allies
I don't know why people think she's fine as just a support character. It's not. Don't get me wrong, she does have her strengths but against a good team it's like having 2.5 players vs 3. Who cares if you can shield your teammates when that's all you contribute to a battle? That's still 3 of their DG's dealing out DPS compared to your 2. And if they actually know what they're doing they'll just ignore your shielded teammate and focus fire you to oblivion anyway because their "support" DG's - m
I'd be hesitant to call it OP. I play QoT alot and agree that it's definitely a powerfull tool and I've won games because of it. But it's no better than heal or Oaks shield. QoT's mana pool is pretty low and form changing is a long process so even with helms, if she's mass shielding she won't be doing anything else. I don't think it's unfair that a QoT should escape two DG's by using shield. She's not exactly speedy and without that shield she's about as squishy as they
