Why don't most people on overwatch use a mic? (PS4)?
I play overwatch on ps4 and its by far one of my favorite games in general. I like how it's basically cod, but with actual skill. But anyways, when i typically join games, im usually the only person on the team with a mic. It isnt a big issue until i play competitive and the exact same thing happens. Being a team based game, i dont believe someone should even look at overwatch, let alone play it if they dont have a mic. communication is a key factor in the game and that determines if a team is going to win or not...I'm not saying a mic is a guarenteed win in overwatch, but it helps significantly. It feels like im talking to a computer when i play matches and im the only one with a mic. Weird how people can buy a $60 game but not a $5 pair of earbuds to use as a mic..it honestly isnt that hard. Does anyone else experience these issues?
2 AnswersVideo & Online Games5 years agoLooking for a decent gaming laptop?
Recently, I've been slowly transitioning from console gaming to pc gaming (mostly emulators) and I've been looking into laptops that can run certain games i want. I found a certain laptop that seem like a good laptop while also being affordable at the same time, but i just need clarification on if I should actully get a laptop like this to run games. Also, by games, i don't mean something liike nintendo 64 games or gameboy color. What i had in mind was ps2/gamecube/wii games (and possibly steam).
Laptop link: http://www.amazon.com/Dell-Latitude-12-5-Inch-Prof...
Also, I noticed that unlike most gaming laptops, the one in the link doesn't seem to have a decent graphics card. Would that be a dealbreaker for most steam games?
4 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks5 years agoPCSX2 question?
I've been using the PCSX2 emulator for ps2 to run ps2 games on my (Acer Aspire ES1-711-P1UV) laptop and I've been having some difficulty using the emulator. I don't have any issues with downloading games, but rather I have a problem running them. Every time when I run a ps2 game, the FPS drop significantly and the game runs at literally half the rate it should. I came to the conclusion that my laptop was unable to run PC (and ps2 emulator) games. Knowing this, i used a friend's (HP Pavillion g7-1310us) laptop and installed PCSX2 on his laptop as well. But just like my laptop, his laptop was unable to run ps2 emulated games at a fast/smooth rate. So my question is what are the minimum requirements to use PCSX2? Im curious to know what laptops can and can't run ps2 games
Laptops & Notebooks5 years agoAlto saxophone repair?
I play alto saxophone and a couple of days ago i noticed that my sound wasn't how it used to be. It took me awhile, but i found out that one of my keys/pads dont close all the way. It's the key used to play a side b flat. the pad doesn't close all the way and this makes it difficult to play anything below a G. is this something I can fix myself, or do i need to get it repaired by a professional?
3 AnswersJazz5 years agoSteam/Laptop question?
For the longest, I've been a console (mostly playstation and nintendo) kind of person. I never really got into PC gaming because you would always need an amazing CPU, certain hard drive/ram, and then buying the game. When I got into college. I noticed some people using a alienware laptop to play games on via steam. My question is, for steam, whats the minimum space you need to run the service? Also, at what point would the laptop start to bug out? If it does of course. The laptop I have is a Acer E17 Aspire

2 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks5 years agoWhy is it that...?
When a opening song to a anime is released as the entire song, it never stays online? (I'm mostly talking about youtube here). These are some songs i've seen on youtube with millions of views, until they just flat out disappeared one day.
Lisa-Crossing field (SAO opening 1)
Keytalk-Okaranman (Kyoukai no Rin-ne opening 1)
7!!!- Lovers (Naruto Shippuden opening 9)
What's the point of releasing a full song if it's eventually going to be taken down? And it's not even considered copyright since usually the official youtube/vevo channel would be the one to take it down first. Why is that exactly?
4 AnswersComics & Animation5 years agoA playstation 4 problem?
As most playstation/xbox users would know, psn and xbox live were down for awhile. As of today, I notice that everything is up and running.....almost. ive noticed that most ps3 and ps4 users can sign in. I can sign in on my ps3, but not the ps4. Whenever I try to sign in, I get the message, "The connection to the server has been terminated". This had been going on since Christmas eve, and since the network is "up and running" again, I dont see why I cant sign on to my ps4. Ive also deleted my user account and tried to start fresh by signing in again, but that didnt work either. What should I do? I'd ask sony but I cant call them or live chat since its sunday.

3 AnswersFacebook7 years agoPlayStation Network deleted my friends list?
A couple of minutes ago I turn off my ps3. I turn it back on and notice my friends list is loading slower than usual, so i went to it to see there wasn't a friends list AT ALL. i have 100 friends and they're all gone. when i try to add them back, i get a message saying "An error occurred during the add operation" following by the error code 8002A669. What should I do about this? This is the second time this has happend.
Btw, if any of you are wondering why i didn't contact sony, its because all the agents are busy (live chat) and the sony # is busy as well.
3 AnswersPlayStation7 years agoProving triangles congruent?
I'm studying for final exams and theres this one easy, yet confusing problem I'm having difficulty understanding.It involves congruent triangles . The question is asking to identify the correct congruence statement:
a. CAB = DAC
b. ABC = ACD
c. ACB = ACD
d. The triangles can't be proven congruent (They're 2 right triangles combined, so it can he proven by the hypotenuse theorem)
Anyways, aren't the first three answers the EXACT same? Is there some kind of order angles of a triangle need to be in? *So confused*
1 AnswerHomework Help7 years agoA MAJOR ps3 issue..please read and answer?
Today, my ps3 was working just fine. I leave to go to a wedding, come back and I move my ps3 to the living room. Here's the thing, i turn the ps3 on and its a black screen. Now this is when I use a HDMI cord, when i changed to the original, it still was blank. SO what i did was move it back to my room and insert the HDMI cord in this time, then my ps3 says "The hard disk's file system is corrupted and will be restored" TF is this?? I've done this about 3 times. I noticed that it stops at 51% jumps to 100%, a beep is heard, and the screen goes black. I've been waiting patiently but it's wearing out. What should I do about this? I heard that if you hold the power button after the 2nd/3rd beep, the safe menu thingy appears. Ive never used that so i wouldn't really know how to access it, but anyways, how can i fix this situation? i really want to play the ps3
2 AnswersPlayStation8 years agoWhat's the name of this movie?
I saw this one movie on comcast xfinity and i couldn't see what it was called because it doesnt have a guide....damn comcast..but anyways, there's a couple scenes i remember from the movie.
Before I get started, as far as i know about the plot, its a dancing movie..like.people dancing in huge groups and competing, the main character is this black (or latina...idk) girl named maria,
Here's one scene. Maria and her dance crew are auditioning for this dancing gig, the first time they try, they fail, then try again because the judges thought they weren't ready. Maria and her crew dance again, but much better this time, and they make it.
Another scene, Maria and her crew battle another crew, and the person leading that is some mexican looking guy. (lol sorry for not having a lot of details) so they battle, and at first it looks like maria's crew are the better dancers, then the other guys group call out the rest of the members, so maria's crew is outnumbered and embarrased, and that caused one of the members to leave or quit...idk..i didnt see the whole movie.
Third scene, because of being embarrased, maria wants to quit herself, and she leaves for awhile. So the crew was being lead by this one white guy with blonde hair. Maria comes back to the crew having a change of heart, and that's all i remember from the movie.
Once again, sorry for not having enough details, but it's enough right? I mean that's three scenes right there. lol. Can anybody tell me what the name of this movie is?
2 AnswersMovies8 years agoDid I overdose with my inhaler?
I'm in my highschool marching band, and I attended the band camp for this summer. The goal of band camp was to get used to marching, and get fit. Here's the thing: I'm a large guy with asthma so I get tired quicker than others. One thing about band camp is that we have to run around a small football field for 3 laps. My asthma kicks in on the quarter of the first lap. When I'm done running, I feel like I'm going to pass out and all that, so i use my inhaler more the twice. I also use my inhalor WHILE I'm on the field. I use my inhalor once or twice on the last quarter of the last lap, then start running, then i use it again but i'm not sure how many times i use it exactly. How much pumps is considered an overdose? Highest ammount of pumps at once is about 4 or 5 (after the run) and 1 or two during the run. I've really used up my inhaler because of the damn band and im regretting it. I heard that overdosing an inhaler leads to a fast and irregular heartbeat? I'm not sure if i have that but i have noticed i've been getting tired quicker by doing pretty much nothing. For example, 10 minutes ago i carry a bag of chicken to the kitchen for my dad..the bag was like 10+ pounds or something. So as i was carrying that, i got tired. I tried catching my breath, and it worked for about 10 seconds. then i slowly walk again and not only did i still have a hard time breathing, but it was slightly worse that time. Since i've told y'all this little story, i really need to know: did i overdose with my inhaler?
(Here's something about the band camp run i forgot to mention above, Last week at band camp, i had about 100 pumps..i have the inhaler with the dial, and at the end of the week i had 40..i didnt use up 40 just in band camp..just a added sum of band camp and after that)

2 AnswersR&B & Soul8 years agoLesbian/Gay question...does this make ANY sense?
Ello people. Before i get into this question, i just gotta put out that im somewhat of a goofy/jokester..also, im not homophobic in any way..but anyways, on to the question.
So, I was on Playstation home with a couple friends of mine..these couple of friends are lesbians. So, one invites a guy to hang out, and he gets off the controller for a bit, knowing that ima goofy, I play a little gay prank on him..lol its still funny.
So, he gets back and reacts, and EVERY1 in the room is laughing..besides one lesbian. She gets all silent so i ask her gf whats the deal. She said she had a "gay phobia"....WTF?
I really dont get how a lesbian can have a gay phobia, but anyways, im not really mad at the girl, its just that every1 is lauging and enjoying themselves til that 1 person decides to be a killjoy..and with a retarded excuse at that o.o
My question is..does a lesbian having a gay phobia make sense?
2 AnswersLesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender8 years agoThe 5 second rule and more?
Hello there, I saw this youtube video by Vsauce awhile back and the title of it was Is the 5 second rule true? I found some interesting things out about the 5 second rule (which i wont go over since i saw it last year) but i'll simply paraphrase it. If food drops on a floor, bacteria comes on it in a nanosecond....or something like that. Here's the question...If bacteria on a floor can quickly spread to food in a nanosecond, what about the bacteria on people, walls, pencils, etc? Here's an example on what I mean..If im at a table and i touch it, will my food and the other's food be infected by bacteria? Can a single touch spread bacteria in an entire room?

3 AnswersPlayStation8 years agoA big video game discussion. Opinions needed?
As you can tell by the question, this relates to video games. I'm the type of person that never makes a big deal about anything and just does anything. I'm saying that because it's the same for video games. I play any game and I don't criticize the work of it. However, some people do. Earlier today me and a online friend were talking about anime(I have no idea how it lead to videogames...but yeah) and Call of Duty Black Ops 2 became involved. That certain online friend doesn't really like COD games because of the "Lack of effort" put into it. His opinion is like....how should i put this. All games need alot of effort into them, but look at the call of duty franchise. It's pretty much the exact same thing each year but with different maps and stuff. The COD games are about the same because Treyarch doesn't want to "stray" from it's roots right? By stray by its roots, i mean a big change to a game. For example, the gameplay of the original sonic the hedgehog game has a new game that comes out and the sonic game is like...street fighter. Get what I'm saying? But anyways, this question really isn't about cal of duty, but more about video games in general. Are people supposed to expect the most from video games, or just play them and have fun no matter what kind of game it is? I'm not a game critic at all, but since some are, I'd like to hear your opinions on the video game discusion.
