>The Summer Games 2017 event ends on August 28th LESS THAN ONE WEEK LEFT >last year's summer games items are back for regular pricing (1x), while new items are also available for event pricing (3x) youtube.com/watch?v=2OWbGgGjdBk
>Highlights from an August 22 developer Q&A stream: - Secret changes coming to competitive mode's back-end for Season 6 - Vague Mercy changes, no idea what, but they're specifically designed to make her less frustrating - D.Va rework: defense matrix lasts half as long, damage output is being buffed, shoot while flying, new ability (micro missiles) - They're aware of Mercy / off-meta mains gaming the SR system; SR calculation changes coming... eventually - No solo-only queues or search preferences coming, but they know how much we want it - Maybe map voting / rotation someday - See-through objective markers "soon"
Winston…why are we still here? Just to suffer? Every night, I can feel my leg, and my arm… and even my fingers…the research data I’ve lost…and the comrades I’ve lost…it won’t stop hurting, like they’re all still there. You feel it too, don’t you?
I’m the one who got caught up with Overwatch, a group above nations, even the US, and I was the parasite below, feeding off Morrison's power. They came after you in Gibraltar, then Numbani. Overwatch just…keeps growing, swallowing everything in its path, getting bigger and bigger. Who knows how big now…
Winston…I’m gonna make ‘em give back our past…

fuck, even the way Mei stands is retarded
Samuel Adams
He's right
Justin Ward
The only way Reinhardt can get over the "deaths" of all his friends and comrades is by doing justice and smashing shit.
Jose Parker
Hitchen's Razor
user pointed out that there is a day/night cycle to indicate a time skip, to which you say that the arctic is not the same as the rest of the world and that its always day or always night, to which I showed that this is not true and thus the day/night cycle works out.
because blizzard didn't explicitly state a specific time, we can assume that when Mei woke up the arctic was not in a state of perpetual dark or light, and that time passed when she was grieving for her dead co-workers
the burden of proof is on you to prove otherwise, even though I'm pretty sure you're just trolling at this point because you know you're wrong and you just want to keep pretending like you're retarded
Easton Carter
Imagine being Reinhardt in that short and having to be all like "damn, Mei, you fuckin' fine, all sexy with your fat body and horrific androgynous chink face. I would totally have sex with you, both my character and the real me." when all he really wants to do is fuck another 16 year old Fareeha in his dressing room. Like seriously imagine having to be Reinhardt and not only sit in that chair while Mei flaunts her disgusting body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing her stretchmarks and leathery skin, and just sit there, take after take, hour after hour, while she perfected that dance. Not only having to tolerate her monstrous fucking visage but her haughty attitude as everyone on set tells her she's STILL GOT IT and DAMN, MEI LOOKS LIKE THAT?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch her mannish fucking gremlin face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of Arabs and British lesbians and later alleged rape victims for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the boonies in Eichenwalde. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on her dimpled stomach as she sucks it in to writhe it suggestively at you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get paid to sit there and revel in her "statuesque (for that is what she calls herself)" beauty, the beauty she worked so hard for with Zarya in the previous months. And then Jeff Kaplan calls for another take, and you know you could kill every single person in this room before the studio security could put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're fucking Reinhardt. You're not going to lose your future Grandmaster rank over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.
Jordan Carter
I cried after listening to Mei's mentally challenged accent for a few minutes, yeah.
Caleb Richardson
No you dumb idiot, post the chinky sounding one.

Sebastian Roberts
At least Mei is actually part of Overwatch.
Andrew Davis
this McCree's history was at least a lot more vague and open to creative thought, a short of McCree would be immediately better than a short of Pharah just by concept alone.
No user. We get the origins of a character that we already knew the origins of.
Michael Butler
Look dude If you want your "titty" pad so much, why aren't you ordering one instead of crying wolf here? There are websites that allow you to make custom designs for your desired pads and you can get any fucking titty pad of any fucking character you want.
Why the fuck haven't you ordered one already and shut the fuck up about it?
Dominic Price
mei is a cute girl also not retarded shes a scientist also i main mei you should too
Joshua Martin
stupid mcreeee poster
Dominic Flores
Better that than the bitch that already got a comic. D.va, zen and mccree still need shorts.
What happened in korea? How does d.va mix her military and public life? Why is a budhist robot fighting bad guys? How did mccree get into crime?

Christopher Baker
What anime do you think Mei likes? Besides Haruhi, obviously.
I want to watch Ms Kobayashi's Maid Dragon with her.
Lincoln Kelly
please answer my question instead of insults I only picked an appropriate reaction picture. I never post to these threads, I only lurk, but that fucking retarded "titty pad" crying is over the fucking top.
You have the ability to order just about anything from the internet. JUST FUCKING DO IT
Jaxon Smith
>fourth hero ever made after tracer, widowmaker and reaper >completely irrelevant
Jaxson Jenkins
I'm still trying to figure out why they decided to have Mei walk out onto the ice and die, rather than, say, having her be able to send a message out to Winston and get picked up by someone.
James Reed
not gonna lie that pharah jump gave me goosebumps.
John Flores
they don't know it yet either
Jace Cook
Im not that rein user, im a different rein user.
Jaxon Lee
>not posting the closeup
Owen Rogers
Why should I care about the origin of some girl with mother issues who never achieved her dream and is largely irrelevant to what little story the game has?
Robert Morgan
I only have two things on my hard drive: Pictures of mothra and pictures of widowmakers butt.
Parker Long
yeah but she makes me rock fucking solid still
Lincoln Wilson
Mei is shit, she should have died with her friends and it would have done us all a favor.
Ryan Garcia

Evan Thompson
Did Chu write on this? Because it sure as hell feels like it. I hope I'm not the only one who thought the short was dogshit and that The Plan was unironically better in every way.
Ryder Parker
I want a Pharah short where it hints at Pharmercy but doesn't canonize it
Easton Long
So, Balderich or Stonehardt?
Jordan Murphy
Everyone thinks that
Jacob Bell
Balderich, without a doubt
Brandon Powell
>tfw you're all out of batteries
Austin Sanders
blizzard's writing is just objectively shit.
Jayden Stewart
There's been too much THICCposting for me to notice.
Jaxon Peterson
He's the lead writer so he likely has some amount of involvement. The last time I saw an interview with one of the guys that makes the shorts Chu was answering questions too.
Cameron Johnson
>pharah short comes out >it's her interacting with overwatch members >her short turns out to be a daily life of overwatch heroes rather than anything about her
Jaxon Scott
someone can like something and point out it flaws, you know that right?
Ayden Carter
I know you're being ironic about this but it got shot down long ago.
Zachary Gutierrez
Why would it have to be origin? Pharah being inducted into the new Overwatch as a short would be pure kino.
Hudson Ortiz
Mei's voice actor is shit, I was cringing pretty bad at the acting Cute short though
Ethan Rogers
>tfw you win a match fought almost entirely in overtime
Michael Martinez
>Chu's lack of progression and bland dialogue are in the shorts now The ONE place I wanted him to stay away from the most and he just couldn't help shitting them up too. Not to mention the trailer is just her backstory with NOTHING added. Not even any new music which at least the other ones could do. I've got a bad feeling about this new batch of shorts.
Landon Johnson
>try to play some Mei in QP for a couple of rounds because the short reminded me how much I loved playing her when the game first came out >every round people go 4 DPS so I'm forced to heal or tank because I want something resembling a decent team comp The sooner Deathmatch gets added so I can go Mei and Sombra as much as I want there and hopefully less DPS people will be in QP, the better.
How is Mei in Deathmatch anyway? She seems like she'd be pretty good there, but the PTR seems to be down so I can't check for myself.
Dylan Thompson
>Da wowd is woth faighting fo
Isaiah Long
> mommy issues > military > joining helix it would be way more interesting than Mei's
Ethan Barnes
that's why you gotta post em
Evan Lewis
Are Pharah's mommy issues the reason she fucks Mercy?
Leo Diaz
Go for it user, you are placed lower than you should be after placements, Diamond is well within shooting distance
Samuel Jackson
I want to hug Tracer.
Ryder Hill
I liked Mei's short a lot more than Alive. I feel like Alive is the lowest of them all imo
Joseph Ramirez
Good feel.
>tfw you kill both healers and an ulting soldier with 3 consecutive widow headshots in overtime and cap the point
John Morgan
Too bad her personality is somehow even blander. She'd be a great character in the hands of the right writers. But, you know...
Christian Harris
You only got the first part right.
William Morgan
I want Mei to pour coffee in my eyes
Aiden Reed
Mei is a huge bitch to deal with because she's basically immortal in 1v1
>The more recent shorts ‘The Last Bastion’ and ‘Infiltration’, released alongside new character Sombra, were more straightforward character profiles that existed outside the main story. Blizzard isn’t putting too many restrictions around the stories it wants to tell, explains Chamberlain. “Honestly, sometimes it's just like ‘wouldn't it be really cool to make two ninjas fighting each other’, basically.” >There is, however, still a desire to push an overarching Overwatch story forward, so it’s not simply a case of giving every character a short for the sake of it. Launching the game, the team tended to focus on exposition, says lead writer Michael Chu. “But I think that we have a desire to continue to push the story forward because you know the game sort of exists in its own pockets of time.”
Cooper Peterson
Man, using a legit Chinese VA really shot 'em in the foot this time.
I saw a lot of people in the previous thread saying it was worse than Hero. Why do you all hate Hero so much?
