WHY THE FUCK IS IT LIKE THIS
IT'S ALMOST HALF THE NORMAL FOV OF THE HUMAN EYE, WHY?!

the enemy has a teleporteur

I'M GETTING THE FEELING THEY HAVE A SHIEEEEEELD GENERATOR

Where to find people to play comp together? Reddit?

This would be great. All of Zarya's skins are absolute trash aside from the frosted tips one.

Engine can't handle a higher FoV

same reason you still can't choose what map or even game mode you want to play, because pic related is super fun!!!

Pound her bongos.

>art faggot thinks the FoV is fine despite it being significantly lower than literally every other fucking fps
totally surprised

>it's a guaranteed loss if the enemy team has a mercy and your team doesn't
Nice balancing, Blizz!

>he thinks that playing only one muh balanced pro-verified map is fun
good riddance
so happy blizzfucks aren't that stupid to listen the likes of you

Literally
Literally
100% pickrate

Balance idea: When mercy rez's a target they spawn with 50% less hp

>go 67-17 as reaper cause enemy team has hog and Orisa
>we still lose
gotta love weekends

stop being so toxic then. we can't balance the game when people like you exist

don't forget it's not actually 103, it's about 70-75~. No fucking idea how they are fucking up the calculation and think it's 103
it's because
no shit the game isn't balanced they've got a fucking fine arts faggot heading up the game

Frosted is shit too. It's just Dawn with sleeves.

that or one of the discords.

though sifting and posting myself on it since they released has netted me zero teams

It's pretty ridiculous. She's stronger than ever now.

Balance idea: Remove Mercy from the game and replace her with 2 new healers.
A rez with no channel time shouldn't be in an FPS.

it's more that on non-ranked matches, you know CASUAL FUCKING QUICKPLAY, I'd like to play the maps I like to play, like every other fucking game in the industry.
each meta is worse than the last

>playing zarya
>we have an ana
>they have a mercy
>solo ult mercy every time
>enemy team falls apart without heals
>win
The salt was unreal though in chat.

>losing more sr than I'm gaining
well that's a fine how do ya do

>that screen
please tell me this is fake, I've never played and just come here to shitpost and save porn.

It cannot be that bad right?

Kill yourself

>I'd like to play the maps I like to play
Feel free to pander your autism in customs.
Normal people hate playing on the same map over and over again.

What skins are you gonna try to get for halloween? I'm getting witch mercy and dr. junk

First I bang the drum. Then I bang yer mum

>and another thing just ruined by consoles
i swear, every time a feature is purposefully withheld, the explanation is always 'console needs this or it wont work on it'

Gengu

Why the fuck doesn't Genji or Hanzo say Konnichiwa? They're Japanese. That's how they say hello.

All of them.

I will never understand why retards on plebbit and w/e think Jeff is some sort of awesome badass.

I mean you say that but frequently get the same map "randomly" 3+ times in a row because the algorithm is so bad

they haven't announced the new skins yet

I've been gone for 6 months, is Reinhardt still in the comp scene?

Who cares about those two weeaboo cunts. Lùcio doesn't even use any portuguese word.

I don't think you mean that, user

so shut your fucking mouth you stupid piece of shit

no

>I will never understand why retards on plebbit and w/e think Jeff is some sort of awesome badass.
Same reason Blizzfags love Metzen. They just do for some weird ass reason.
Didn't Jeff admit they aren't able to even work on the game because they are unironically trying to fight back against the "toxic" community?

>barely play DPS
>Likes to play support and tanks
>doesn't trust your team to play those roles because you think they'll do a poor job and will throw the game.

Am I the toxic one?

>get the same map "randomly" 3+ times
Never happened to me for the whole year.

>who gives a shit about weebs
>champs actually from Japan
>cares about a nigger more
hmmm

Why the fuck does hanzo even speak english?
Genji worked for black/overwatch and due to them working all over the world it makese sense for him to speak a lot of english.
Mei was on a global scientist group, it makes sense most of her dialogue being english.
D.va being a world gamer competitor it also makes sense for her to speak a lot of english.
Now hanzo? He manages a fucking yakuza group, he shouldn't speak shit for english like most of the nips.

>I will never understand why retards on plebbit and w/e think Jeff is some sort of awesome badass.
Because unlike here, it's echo chamber or get banned.

back when there was a lot of hacking going on I asked them if anything would be done about owned core and was permabanned instantly, same thing happened on the official forums when I asked if Blizzard had plans to shut down owned core

When it happened on the official forums it sealed the deal for me that the pros were indeed hacking and blizzard did not want it to stop.

Jeff "Give me an email, I can write good but I can TOTALLY balance a game!" Kaplan

>Dorado attack
>pick Mariachi Reaper

That is what happens when Japs. step out of their home country for a long time.

so why has reaper got a spic skin when he's a canon caribbean?

>2070th
>japs are the same
>guy worked as a mercenary around the world
>doesn't know english
t. brainlet

>when Jeff admitted that a guy complaining about getting punished had been reported literally hundreds if not thousands of times
>reddit fags went crazy happy over it and thought jeff was the coolest for saying it
meanwhile I'm sitting here wondering why it took this long for something to happen

How are the pros hacking? Proof?

this explains a lot

I don't want them to only speak japanese. Just like how Sombra says pretty much everything in English but sometimes when you say hello she says hola.

What has he been replaced by, Orisa?

People slobber all over his dick because of how often he communicates with the community. Doesn't matter what he actually says just that he's doing it, even if it's like the time where he went on about how many more wins he had than some random forum poster.

Because the hero design is 95% stereotypes
Yep, when I found out it was a mental click. "Oh that's why the game looks great but is fundamentally fucking broken."

If you swap to the Jap. version they will probably say 'hello' instead of 'Konnichiwa' which would be hilarious if true.

>If we post, "we're talking about Mercy" immediately there is an expectation that she is going to be radically changed in the next patch when the truth is, we might just leave her how she is for a while.
Maybe because people are hoping the reason shit is unbalanced as hell is because they are ignoring it? Of course this is the reaction, how the fuck can they be discussing Mercy and not be planning changes when she is fucking broken?

God, I fucking hate Jeff. Why did they hire someone with an English degree instead of an actual game balancer? All changes go through him, and since he's just a platinum pondscum of course he's going to buff scrub heroes that he uses like Winston and Mercy.

Oh come on.

>implying anyone gives a shit about anything but mommy mercy

Orisa is actually kind of fun.

Anyone got any tips?

No he does say konnichiwa and domo. Though they kept a lot of engrish on a lot of heroes, it's pretty funny to hear though.

Genji uses "Yo" like your typical jap guy. youtube.com/watch?v=vqIqCymonTU

Oh, doesn't Titanfall have wallhacks as a boost? Or is he literally wallhacking?

I'm in Silver and when I saw this I was livid.
But Jeff approved it. Remember that. The guy who has the final say in all aspects of the game and flames forum nobodies because he's Plat and you're Gold saw this, and said "yeah, looks good."

>play ana
>"can you play mercy?"

what am i looking at here?

literally nothing wrong with that, stop throwing and pick a good healer

I do the same thing. I wish I could just relax and play Mercy / Ana / Roadhog / Zarya / Reinhardt without having my dps do literally nothing

What if, in the Japanese/foreign versions of Overwatch, McCree was just voiced by Matt Mercer, only speaking English and being incredibly confused as to why everyone else is speaking these languages.

>doesn't see it
Look right after he kills the first guy, his reticle instantly locks onto the guy to the left and tracks him down into the building.

Surefour is a pretty damn well known cheater, and many of the "pros" have been caught doing it. Their stats all blow ass if you actually look at their overalls.

Since most of this shit is toggled and they will use it during tipping point moments in fights instead of all the time.

>has trouble killing a player
>aim all over the place
>kills him then instant locks another player in the background
It's a toggle bot.

Nepotism. Blizzard is the fucking worst when it comes to that shit. It's the reason why shit like PvP or the lore in WoW can be shit but they won't hire Chilton or Metzen or Hozinka.

Even before Overwatch all Jeff did in WoW was write quest text and design the aesthetics of the raid.

yeah fuck that

zenyatta is way more fun. i play him everygame

Fuck the shitters who need a Mercy to carry them.

Wouldn't it just lock on? If he's actually hacking, it would instantly lock on instead of naturally and quickly dragging itself over.
Pros don't hack. They can't. It's impossible for them to, even at LAN.

...r-right?

...

If the enemy has a winston and he keeps dropping barriers to cut LoS then you're better picking mercy than ana. Since winston is on literally every match these days, you can see why people asked you to pick mercy instead.

Seriously people wanting mercy isn't because ana is bad, it's just with winston diving in and diving behind enemy barriers ana can't do her job properly.

>naturally drags over
>is 1 frame of movement
Jesus christ could you suck his dick anymore. the dude is a confirmed cheater.

>eriously people wanting mercy isn't because ana is bad, it's just with winston diving in and diving behind enemy barriers ana can't do her job properly.
There's a reason why Mercy has a 100% pick rate.

>steel trap

How do you make Mei a true mobility counter?

I to wish I could just lock comfy Sombra and hack peoople knowing the DPS will kill them, but they won't, ever.

They're too busy in chat REEEEing

What was the rarest voiceline you've heard in the game? Personally, I didn't Ana actually says "One shot, One kill."

>even at a lan
Almost every mouse today has onboard memory, much of this shit is quite literally loaded into mice themselves now with custom settings in them.

It's also the reason the tournments where they can't their equipment end up being so damn boring to watch with everyone missing all the time.

This one, only heard it once.

>Didn't Jeff admit they aren't able to even work on the game because they are unironically trying to fight back against the "toxic" community?
No, all content was done in 2016 and then got released half a year later in 2017.

They are extremely busy working on OW League stuff. The toxic video was just Jeff trying to buy more time before OW League launches.
