SEXY OMNIC GIRLS SOON

tracer is best girl

angela best waifu

reminder that mei players have yellow fever
reminder that t h i c c is just a meme
reminder that mei is shit
reminder that mei's immediate family come from the nanking rapes, and thus mei is the daughter of rape babies

Reinhardtvision when?

Mah nigga

reminder

reminder that battleborn is a superior game and launches on the same day as open beta

Bastion main reporting in.

>giving your money to anthony 'cuck' burch instead of blizzjew

>when your stack is amazing

>MUH CLASSIC COUNTER STRIKE GAMEPLAY.
well yeah

valve have made plenty of mistakes but it's still the least bad game out there if you want to play a PC FPS that is not dead

What's Bastion's bird's name?

...

Faggot.

Bleep Bloop

soon we can make a 'best side-character'-poll
>a.k.a non-heroes
when we actually have enough side-characters who are a little more than window-dressing

what makes a hero a hero anyways?
it can't be their connection to Overwatch because the Aussies have none to them

>side character
what

>what makes a hero a hero anyways
They have significance in the overwatch world in some way, aussies for example made that entire region a wasteland

PRELOAD WHEN?

[Open]
how fucking useless are you

you can do that now if you're really desperate
there's a way on reddit iirc i can find the link for you desu

those weren't the Aussies, that was the ALF
and Junkrat was five during that time

>what
you know; a side-character: someone who's not the main-character in a story?

reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/47qqnc/step_by_step_guide_how_to_install_overwatch/

>the ALF
Roadhog was part of the ALF.

Are there any current examples of side characters in game?

Tekhartha Mondatta

robot jesus died for your sins

I don't really consider him a side character though. Sure, he's unplayable, but he played an extremely pivotal role in the story.

Maybe your original question was, who is the best NPC?

...

More like robot Buddha.

what is with tumblr and their really oversaturated gifs I don't get why they do so

To make it seem more 'cinematic'.

GOTTA CRUSH THE BLACKS!

Realistically I think his story takes way more cues from Gandhi, but Gandhi's teachings was effectively Buddha's.

At first I thought it had something to do with trimming down the file size, causing the colour contrast to be much sharper.

But maybe they are just fags.

>That gif is 1.9mb
>Literally about 3 seconds long

When will the rest of the net embrace webm.

When tumblr and twitter outright refuse gifs, only then will normies see the true goodness of webm

Not only that but it´s also 500x160. Disgusting

> B-but...

This game worth dropping $40 on? I heard people saying the game is really barren of content and it is unbalanced for people who aren't teaming. Since I'm poor, I don't want to waste my money.

Try the open beta that's dropping next week and see if it's worth spending $40.

if you decide to buy check other sites aswell for cheaper keys, altho I don't know how that works but some of my friends did that.

How can white girls even compete?

I saw G2A had Overwatch origins keys for about $40, but I don't know if I would trust them as I heard that other companies disabled keys bought from there.

that was just ubisoft with one game, i've bought keys for steam/origin and it's fine.

>compete
It's not a competition when the white girls win by default.

>Meifags

4 u

has there been any official art of widow with normal white skin?

Reminder that there's some amazing ff on overwatch like pic related courtesy of tumblr

yet again webm wins

Yeah I think there's one of her prior to talon fuckery

"Tumblr was a mistake" -The internet

youtube.com/watch?v=dmAHvxaIxos

Most teams prefer double mcree to soldier guy, unless its a good helix rocket map

if i preorder at gamestop, redeem beta, can i still cancel preorder if i dont like beta?

>no pansy
Dropped

read their return policy you mong

you'll have to talk to gamestop to cancel

>couldn't post the 3k smug I made
Guess this one will do. Max rez I could go.
Just one a little bit higher rez, Shame the limit isn't like 5mb or something.
>Veeky Forums has a rez limit for videos,
I did not know this.

Why not just wait until open beta and test the game and get the game later?

g2a sends the code right away or do I have to wait until 24th?

Alright folks, who do you want the homosex character to be?
I suggest road hog or torbjorn for shipper tears.

all gray market resellers can only give you the code @ launch

none because homosexuality is a mental illness

cheers

...

I'm gonna main my favorite hero and there's nothing you can do about it.

Hey buddy I think you got the wrong door, the leather clubs two blocks down

how dare you

your having fun incorrectly

thanks for the free wins

OTP

>I'm gonna main my waifu and there's nothing you can do about it.
ftfy

but zarya is mentally ill

Is this the one you're talking about?

くたばれ

>ima badazz cuz i talkeded shit over teh internetz woo soo crayyyZ i shoulda played teh joker in the new moovyy

youtu.be/I3WhdXPaUd8?t=2m6s

Right

Isn't that pharah tho?

pharahs mum

>roadhog
you think he and Junkrat are 'close'

>torbjörn
but why?

besides; you really think making either of them gay will stop the shippers?
no shipper has ever been stopped by common senses
look at
that's proof enough

overwatch.wikia.com/wiki/Ana_Amari
That's her mother. She was a sniper in the original Overwatch. Pharah is salty OW disbanded before she could join it.

Before she was Widowmaker, she was a nobody. She was the civilian wife of an OW commander or something that Talon failed to assassinate repeatedly. So they kidnapped his wife, brainwashed her, let her be "saved", then her programming made her kill him in his sleep and return to them to complete her training and development.

Unless we see photos of side character Gerard Lacroix with his wife in them, we won't see pre-Talon Widowmaker. Maybe with a skin.

>3 torbjorns

>roadhog or torbjorn
Imagine all the fat and dwarf porn. IMAGINE!

Can't stop won't stop

I want the graphic novel to fuel the flames of the Morrison/Reyes ship,
I want it to be thick with homoerotic subtext;
enough to make fanboys go
>Hm, y-yeah they're just friends
and others go
>Look, they're totally gay for each other

like them holding hands and gazing into each others eyes on panel

Yes. We need to make it gayer.

how about
Reaper and Soldier exchange guns
and then their guns touch in an awkward moment between battles

>reveals both their military backgrounds to be U.S. Marines
At that point the deal is already sealed.

I think you mean their fingers touch very briefly when they pass their guns to each other.

"Overwatch was a mistake" -Blizzard

I really hate this tumblr pairing nonsense going on

>tfw i was hoping dreadnought would hold me over till monday
>tfw it turned out to be shit

i guess i'll stick to FoF and rocket league

>tfw you realise you won't make it through this tight corridor without accidentally brushing your rifle against your husbando.

>Dreadnought is shit

Aw man I was looking forward to that game. The one with the capital ships battling it out right?

yeah. if you have a crew it might be fun but solo queing was terrible.

>SJW Coloring Book: The Game

< Daily reminder that these are the people you'll be playing this game with.

Is it out? I haven't heard shit.

nice

>Sjw blog 5
>He has several SJW pics
I don't like SJWs but I can see a bait post a mile away.
______ok_____

It should be really easy to get into master ladder then

So, the same amount of girlish shrieking as if I would play with MRA's?

I don't give a fuck as long as i don't see any people with pony avatars, those fucking retards made me quit tf2.

Silly user, SJWs don't play video games.

I wonder what a SJW would main;
probably Roadhog

it's closed beta until tomorrow i think. you can buy to get in for 10$ though.

Haven't really followed this alot in the specifics but is there a list anywhere that shows all the different heroes and their role and powers etc?

>those guys that get super mad at tf2 pubs

Check blizzard homepage ?
It literally says if they're tank support etc
