/owg/ - Overwatch General

Feels bad man, on the other hand I haven't gotten any gold or duplicates for the entire event, can't afford any of the halloween skins, I'm just hoping they drop.

>sub healslut wants validation for choice that nobody feels too greatly about either way

The worst part about these lootboxes is that I've gotten more non-event legendaries than legendaries I'm actually interested in.
I have the Zarya 80's skin and it only reminds me of the shitty goth skins.

...

You mean a handslap? Yeah, they do those. But you'll eventually get used to it. First online shooting game?

I got the goth skin as one of my legendaries for this event, I just think it looks really ugly. I wish you could at least sell the skins you didn't want for gold.

>tfw an enemy walks right past you

>I have the Zarya 80's skin and it only reminds me of the shitty goth skins.
Zarya's legendaries are fucking worst.

>its another episode of legendary skins for same 10 or so characters
>no cool new emotes or intros
>no legendary emotes\intros\poses\etc
>some character barely getting anything
>a lot of skins are jokes and memery
I mean. I'm not sure what i expected.

That pic will never not be funny to me.

The only Zarya Legendaries that are even remotely good are the Siberian Front skins and even then those are only there because it makes sense given her lore.

>buy 50 boxes at start of event
>excited to get some new skins
>get 2 event legendaries out of all of them, rest are non-event genji skins
does anyone have a noose?

This event was overall a bit lackluster in effort, small changes to junkenstein. Hoping it means that something else is in the pipeline requiring more attention.

...

No, I mean shitters picking a sniper then proceeding to spam "you suck" and shit like that in chat when it's them who are sucking dicks and throwing the game

If you could sell things you didn't want anyone who never touched certain heroes like I never touch Zarya or Hanzo or Widowmaker they would sell anything and everything they had for that character to get something for their main. I would gladly sell all my Zarya skins for credits towards something that's actually worth directly buying.

Any advice on how to get good as Sombra? I don't seem to be ever able to good damage, and team does not seem to want to use hack healthpacks, so I don't have emp that often.

>be mercy main because bad

>tfw you walk right past an enemy

Hack support/tank
Wait for them to turn red and retreat
Swoop and and kill them

These graveyard poses are stupid. Only bought them because my autism triggers me to collect everything.

>team does not seem to want to use hack healthpacks, so I don't have emp that often.
You gotta get a mic bro.

Everyone around silver and gold got a boost to their sr this season because of a change in matchmaking calculations. Sorry.

Target supports primarily, if you start taking damage take only as much as a health pack will heal, then translocate back to the health pack, wait for your translocator, occasionally hack the health pack, and then stealth back to the back line of the enemy. If your team was helpful, however, some flankers like Tracer and Genji might actually use your health pack and help you build up ult charge.

...

Jesus why the fuck are ALL the Zombardiers just targeting me all the time every wave. They can't even fucking code a horde mode properly.

I grab them because I'm already dead inside, might as well show it to everyone.

Is 55% winrate decent?

I never picked up on why that happens, I assume they just prioritize one random person, I will frequently be shot at as Mccree on the ramparts while my team doesn't do anything to shoot them, causing me to turn away from large hordes to deal with 3-4 built up Zombardiers.

Is there hope for anything on the PTR today?

Doesn't matter, you can rank up with a losing record.

Slightly above average.

Alright, use opportunist, got it.
I do, I am guessing that the rest of the team doesn't hear me in the middle of the game.
Alright, bit difficult to get the right amount of damage, but that's good advice.

Thanks anons.

Unlikely.

you can still rank up with 35% WR
take that as you will

not really, what would they put on it?

who said being distracted wasn't fun?

It is. Good job user.

Dumb fucks. Dumb fucks everywhere.

Played my 10 placement games today and got me on gold division with 2207 rating, I main Winston. What am I in for?

Google hidden MMR Overwatch.

I imagine winston is probably pretty easy in gold

Bruised loose Genji boipuccis

winston takes no skill

if you continue to do what I think you've been doing, you're likely in for a smooth ride upward.
>implying you've been aiming at the enemy team's general direction enough.

>Be climatologist that's respected in your field.
>Gonna do some good field work in Antarctica.
>Three weeks before you start moving over there, HR informs you that Overwatch is having a promotion with an international mentally disabled people group to raise awareness about those with mental challenges.
>As a part of the promo, a mentally disabled person will join your expedition.
>Fuck.
>A few days later, the retard arrives.
>It's some dumbass fat Chinese girl in her early 30s that seems to have Downs, among other mental disabilities.
>As she gets out of her parents' car, you know she's going to fuck things up.
>Pretend to be her buddy and tell her she'll be doing a lot of research to help people to get HR off your back.
>She giggles and laughs like the dipshit she is.
>Her parents pick her up a few hours later.

>The day comes.
>You and the team head over to Antarctica with the tard in tow.
>You quickly convince the head of the team to make her in charge of cleaning things up and keeping the coke machines restocked.
>He was going to do something similar anyway.

>Things are going smoothly.
>Tard is keeping out of trouble for the most part.
>They occasionally let her touch some equipment to give her the illusion she's helping, but nothing serious.
>One day, energy is starting to run low and you have no backups nor way to contact the outside world for assistance.
>FUCK
>"Well lets just conserve the energy by going into cryo" says the head of the team.
>It sounds fucking stupid, but you're out of options at this point.
>There's also a pod for the Downie girl.
>Due to various problems, everyone except the retard die.
>The dumbass Downs girl managed to live while you, an expert in your field, died like a bitch.

The way you people rage and whine about Mei you'd think she raped your dog and murdered your goldfish.

this.
this is suffering.
but she did, like the autistic satanic bitch she is.

Enjoying the Halloween event?

Still haven't gotten the only skin I care about but it's pretty good otherwise.

I gotta say the way people do artwork for Widowmaker is as lazy as Bioware designing Quarians.

>Draw any girl
>make her purple

Doesn't even look like her most the time.

Whats the supposed to be? Semen demon skin symmetra?

>fan"art"
>looks nothing like that poo-face in game

After playing Jukenstein so many times I've gotten pretty fed up with it. Shit drops from the crates haven't helped either. I'm just waiting to see if there's gonna be a Scream Fortress this year.

This. I got every Halloween legendary except for Mercy's. I also need that endless Mercy spray but it's too hard, people I'm with can't even make it to the 12th round, how could we do 16?

No. I quit the game during this event.

Yes I'm bad at aiming that's why I picked Winston just to get a smooth transition to the FPS scene because I haven't played any FPS game since CS 1.6 back in '03 I think, I also tried to play Ana when we were full of tanks I really liked her, especially that sleeping dart skill comes handy in many situations

Junkenstein is such a grind, it really isn't fun.

No.

I hope they stop doing these things, I'm already burned out.

Didn't end with:
>Downie bitch unplugged the cryotubes to keep the coke machine running longer when it said it had low power to keep her good girl drinks coming.
>Didn't unplug hers because it had her name on it like the stupid bovine she is.
You had one job, Lovecraft.

>it's another "Genji ults under nanoboost and randomly slashes all around to get 4-6 kills" potg
yeah yeah, fuck off

zero suit Fareeha

there are a ton of things that need fixing in the game, the balancing is a joke atm

>someone wrote this out because they hate Mei that much

I know that feel user, I got the spray and only obtained it barely after hours of trying with braindead randoms.

that's the same for artwork in general

> draw some random girl
> slap some identifying elements of a character
> call it that character

when are we getting this glitch back?

I really hoped instead of just adding endless they would've made mode similar to uprising where 4 man team must go all over eichenwalde killing zomnics in efforts to get inside castle, where Junkenstein works on his monsters or something like this.

>literally all Veeky Forums is now waifu posting autism
it wasn't always like this

I want Pharah's rocket barrage!

>in the pipeline
Probably spectator mode. Which is cool but i kinda want to play this game too, not just watch pros do it.

YOGA FIRE

the inner struggles of a silver soldier

Widowmaker is the worst offender though. Yeah it exists especially for Mercy and Pharah however most of the time people put in the effort to make them look alike but with Widowmaker it's so little effort, even in just regular drawings, not just these advanced drawings which use a reference.

Last week already had a patch to "nerf" mercy. I don't think blizzard wants to at this point shake up the meta, after they did so already this season. Remember, we have blizzcon with owl coming up, they probably want to at least give the pros time to get used to the new meta.

I'll never understand /owg/'s coprophilia.

blozzard should have a yearly event where they make a new skin for every character and they're added to normal lootboxes and buyable

that patch was 2 weeks too late
fuck the pros
they should care about the millions of people who bought the game first and foremost

>want to get new boxes
>junkenstein is boring
>FFA is full of cancer
>bonus points if get backfilled
>mystery heroes is the worst mode in the whole game
>lockout elimanation is all thats left
i just fucking want some boxes jeff

i would actually pay with my own money to make it so that deformed victory poses of characters were a feature.

Does that take much effort? It's just an improved camera mode, not any new elements.

Silver soldiers can beat silver Meis, can't they?

That's the problem with OW.
They have to appeal to 3 demographics at once. The Pro/Esports faggots.
The serious Comp player.
The casuals.

Olivia is cute! CUTE!

If you can deal with shitlords and retards long enough you can get around 5000+ XP without a first win of the day bonus on JRE per match, provided you get to a high enough wave.

Who's model got swapped for Genji?

I took a stab at reclassing the heroes. Here's what I see.

DPS: There to do damage.
Flankers: Sneaking around, looking for picks.
Tank: Protecting the team, negating damage.
Specialist: Different niches.
Healers: For healing.
Mystery: Heroes without a clear role/niche?

What is Dva's role now? Hell if I know. And I've never understood Hanzo either. What does he do? Zarya and Roadhog are also outliers to me, and so is even Reaper. They should commit him to either flanking or actually being frontrow DPS.

Roles are fine as they are. The only thing that needs to be changed is moving Symmetra to defense.

Roadhog
