SmiteFire Blogs

So, if you don't know, most web browsers have Zoom options, in which you can zoom in/out of a page, which alters picture size, letter size, and things like that. Default option is 100% Zoom.

I personally use 75% Zoom on SmiteFire, cuz 100% and 90% looks too much "in my face" and 80% just doesn't please me for some reason, and 75% looks great to me, even tho it shouldn't cuz I have to wear glasses and without them I need to squeeze my eyes to even be able to read anything.

What's your SmiteFire Zoom, and what do you think of my zoom ? (To zoom in/our, hold Left Control and use Mouse WHeel) I hope you like it !

So, Season 4 was announced recently.

I hope to god they change the duel map as well as the conquest map again. Really, the early season 3 map was pretty great, but it could have used a few graphical enhancements. I hope we get to see an aesthetics change from season 3 to 4. The introduction of more invisibility heroes as well as The Morrigan brings a huge strategy element into the game now. The ability to go invisible with mechanics like the smoke of illusion in DOTA 2 will probably be coming to smite. This will bring a massive element of strategy into the game.

Back on The Morrigan, I see what you did there Hi-Rez... You just wanted a copy of Rubik from DOTA didn't you, Well I think you did a good job bringing that type of mechanic to smite, ya done good dog, ya done good.

I would like to see item changes to both the solo lane as well as ADC to make it more incentivized for ADCs to get kills. You could change Soul Eater's mechanic to only work on gods and get a buff to god damage f…

So, things have been going well so far in my PS4 adventures. I use the term "well" loosely, because other than playing some gods I don't normally play, I don't think I'm honing my skills much.

Stepping a bit outside my normal comfort zone of only queuing Conq with friends, I played 3 conquest games in a row last night (after getting off of PC Smite cuz Zilby had to sleep). Played the first as Sol in Mid. I did fine, played pretty intelligently (looking to win lane, rotate when opportunity knocks, etc.), but our team was hard-carried by Apollo (countered by our Serqet, who I don't think really did ANYthing). Geesh. That said, the game really shouldn't have gone on that long...but every time we'd wipe the team, I'd try heading over to the Fire Giant but damn if that PS4 VGS system is not familiar to me...people seriously ignore the GF and FG, and no one ever even attempted it. So it took us an absurdly long time to finish, and at one point got somewhat close to losing. Just couldn't …

So, I'm now level 8 in SMITE on PS4. I couldn't handle the limited selection of gods, so I ended up buying the god pack, since it was on sale.

That said, I knew there were differences, obviously, due to the general user base, the control scheme, etc. However, I'm feeling the differences more and more, and gaining respect for those that have better honed their skills on console.

Not only do I feel handicapped when using a controller (key, but there are also some gods that are just better choices than others, due to the requirement for analog stick precision. Some of my favorites, like Medusa, Bacchus ,and Freya, are mostly able to play the same way, abilities that have more aimed effects via distance (using the Y axis) have been hard for me to adjust to...

Due to this, I want to point out something specific I'd commented on earlier. newbiemj's Serqet guide had him proposing a tanky Serq, to which I had some doubts (though GGF said he was once owned by a tanky Serq). Well, last nig…

So... simple question, Should I finish redoing my Awilix guide or finish the other 2 segments of my Ymir guide first... I'm actually driving myself insane bouncing between the two.

Rage comics are back! However, this one was on hiatus for so long that it's not current anymore. So, consider this a "period piece".



Thank you for reading.

Welp, this is what happens at early levels of PS4 play so far...maybe it's the same at low levels on PC? I don't know, it's been so long.

First VS Arena - Ymir

First VS Joust - Ra

In that 2nd match, our Fenrir just kept diving into the other team and dying (quickly). He gave up after his 7th death and left the game, but that probably helped. In the last push, I double-sniped the Neith and Aphrodite with my ult.

Wish I had more gods...I've unlocked Artemis and Cupid so far because their favor cost is low.

Coming from PC, controls just feel extremely clunky...I'm used to quickly purchasing, having VGS at my fingertips, etc. Other than gameplay, I feel like a noob again...I keep forgetting to level up my skills, using relics and potions are just not instinctual, etc. I don't think I've glanced more than once at the minimap, just cuz I feel so lost with the controls...

It's clear, based on analog movement, that some gods have a significant advantage over others. Skill shots and …
