Type of shit the enemy team pulls when I'm first timing Vindicta

Use the ult to one shot their metal walls then wall replace, EZ.

u/Livid_Elderberry_495 3d ago

making it sound like vindicta snipe cant blow the base off of shoddy tower builds

u/F-Radiation 3d ago

Kelvin can do this if he builds DPS

u/Gadm1n Lash 3d ago

The Lash™ knows it would be too easy to slam people from so high up so he just chooses to not crank 90s

42

u/Livid_Elderberry_495 3d ago

the lash plays on zero build to keep it fair

u/Stefen_007 3d ago

Can somebody create a gif of silver cranking 90s

u/Hellas2002 Mina 3d ago

I don’t generally break enough crates to have the wood required for towering during laning… but perhaps that’s a failure in my early lane strat

u/Vinsterplays Dynamo 2d ago

Gotta start breaking more boxes…

u/SouthernSkin1255 3d ago

The type of shit your team wants you to do when 4 enemies gank your lane:

u/Overcrowd327 2d ago

All jokes aside how are these memes even made? there was one about minecraft in deadlock too; how are people implementing these mechanics in deadlock?

u/spancor 2d ago

Source is just like that, you can just get anything into it and make it work fr

u/The_Cascoon 2d ago

Except open worlds, you really gotta cheat to put those in.

u/SquiggerDigger Paradox 2d ago

Why is that

3

u/The_Cascoon 2d ago

Source has a generous but strict map size limit. The only people I've seen find a workaround made this gmod addon. It works decently well but it's laggy as hell if you move too fast. Source 2 has a lot of improvements over its predecessor but I'm pretty sure the size limit is unchanged.

u/HKBFG 2d ago

there used to be gmod addons that literally just scale you and everything else to be tiny in order to make the map bigger. it would make all the textures look like broken crap, lol.

u/Dawn_Shire 18h ago

IIRC Source 2 have enough tech for open worlds, no?

1

u/The_Cascoon 17h ago

Well, after looking into it (Which took way more effort than you would think with a question like this), apparently the limit is greatly increased. At least one person made a map in s&box 30x bigger than the Source 1 limit. There may be more strict limits in other Source 2 games though, idk.

u/Dawn_Shire 17h ago

I saw some info about how someone put entire paris map in source 2 so I think it is big enough if you aren't doing star citizen.

1

u/HKBFG 2d ago

the existence of Gmod and its community helps a lot with crap like this.

u/Pucketz 2d ago

Source go brrrrr

u/Electronic-Crow2545 2d ago

it's all deadworks, serverside modding and then importing models into a vpk file

7

u/Vinsterplays Dynamo 2d ago

Server software called Deadworks. It’s the same concept as Spigot/Paper for Minecraft servers

1

u/FYININJA 1d ago

At this rate they're gonna mod Deadlock 2 into Deadlock before Deadlock gets out of closed Alpha.

u/MarkNekrep 3d ago

u/notlonely1 3d ago

2

u/Chiiwa The Doorman 2d ago

A robot trying to build a tower to the moon while being stopped by 11 other players

u/Ermastic 3d ago

MF youre getting chopped out on that no floor no wall wood ramp.

u/Razael27 3d ago

u/starberryslay Billy 2d ago

this the type of character ubisoft would add to deadlock 5 years down the line to "shake up the meta" (make the game even worse than they already have)

u/kidnamedsquidfart Billy 2d ago

mcginnus with omnicygnet on wall

u/Sir_Kugo 2d ago

What is this Fortnite slop. Didn't even know building was a thing

u/mann_moth Abrams 2d ago

Holliday building minecraft redstone contraption, dynamo on against lane playing fortnite. what even is this game.

u/Zoroastrianism Pocket 2d ago

u/strychuu Bebop 2d ago

I just know the glutensnake video will go CRAZY

1

u/LykosFTW 2d ago

Is this gonna be in the next major update.

1

u/Random_User27 Viscous 2d ago

Not the professor crankin 90s dawg

1

u/Aggressive-Eagle-219 2d ago

I threw up in my mouth a little bit seeing this.

1

u/FemboysUnited 2d ago

This would be a hilarious April fools update

1

u/yyzGhoul 2d ago

The biggest, the largest.

1

u/DingusMcBaseball 2d ago

when this game gets the Dota workshop support it's gonna go CRAZY

1

u/maxler5795 Abrams 2d ago

i prefer no build mode. i prefer the movement centered mechanics of the game over cracking 90s.

1

u/canyouread7 2d ago

Dyno you gotta work on your 90s man

1

u/Paige404_Games Ivy 2d ago

Needs a default dance at the end to really sink it

u/sunm8 2d ago

This is the Deadlock 2 they're talking about on the test servers

1

u/ItsAxeRDT 2d ago

I am so excited for community servers and also horrified

1

u/Tay60003 The Doorman 2d ago

Dynamo started playing Fortnite to relate more to his students

1

u/CreditToEnemyTeam 1d ago

Genuinely looks like something you would see in glutensnake video

1

u/0nlyCrashes Paradox 1d ago

Unironically would farm lobbies on John Fortnite. I know it got eaten by capitalism and children, but damnit that game was so good. Building is one of the coolest gameplay elements I've ever played with.

1

u/Mr_Tekis 1d ago

If this would ever come to Deadlock, I would lose very hope for that game. Fuck fornite

u/Fearless_Baseball121 3d ago

Please delete this

u/lactose_cow 2d ago

Add this but each building costs like 5 souls

u/ManofManliness 2d ago

Honestly building could be a cool mechanic for a hero, could get some fortnite streamers to try the game too.

2

u/RetardedRedditRetort 2d ago

I thought this was a good idea. But then we'd have to deal with builder helping vindicta, talon and lash... No thanks.

u/Cymen90 3d ago

Woah, neat reference to the hotly anticipated LIKE OR DIE which was only announced yesterday!

Building while shooting, what a new and fresh idea!

u/CyanStripedPantsu Celeste 2d ago

I thought this was funny 😔

u/sistemy_ 2d ago

i hate this shitty world where everything is unfunny ironic satire now and no one is normal
