Overwatch General - /owg/

...

So I play so rarely that I still think Lunar and Junkertown are "new". So as much as I hate them, especially the former, I wonder if the reason I don't like them is simply that they're not as familiar. Therefore I'm wondering what the official reasons for hating them are so I can see if it checks out.

shes does no damage

I want to bully Mercy until she cries!

>No damage
>No range
>Hack isnt even that useful except on health packs

>Pros keep trying to force her and it never works

How can you add a purple themed mexican hacker waifu as spicy as her and have her turn out so shit

but why

What is the point of McCree when Soldier exists?

that concept is shit to begin with.

>last day of winter event
> get last lootbox from arcade
>expect nothing
>I get alpine 76
>FeelsGoodMan

So anyone else got something good that you didn't expect today?

And he could be like a foil/some actual room for character development for Zenyatta. Like up until now we’ve only had unambiguously sympathetic Omnics. If we had an omnic who saw the only means of achieving a future for Omnics was violence and domination as opposed to coexistence and transcendence like Zenyatta. And then the ultimate irony would be this Hivemind guy espousing the supremacy of Omnics was actually this helpless thing that needed to be defended by his drones/teammates

And make him bee themed like the concept art

different flavour and 'anti-flanker', although he's not very good at the latter

you gain SR for winning and lose SR for losing however the amount is affected by a number of things including personal performance.

He hasn't been anti flank since the initial gutting.

we patch soon?

>he's not clever enough to play spicy hacker
[laughs in Spanish]

Blizzard World is confirmed not this week so I don’t think so

>give her basically the same gun as tracer
>give her zero ability to actually stay in a fight, unlike tracer

Sombra needs a shotgun, not an SMG.

I WANT A REINHARDT TITTYPAD

He means event's end

900 ping in my first placement match

>sombra does no damage
fuck you t. doomfist

>hog in ffa

Nah, they are trash tier maps even if you know them

Why is quick play more fun than ranked?

>health of a dps and hitbox of a tank
well no shit

>Overwatch gets grannies like Ana and Mercy while Talon gets babes like Widow and Sombra

personal performance as in if you get all 4 golds in the match, you gain more/lose less sr? or when compared to other people who play your character?

>tfw love the blooberry

How can Overslags even compete?

>Same gun as tracer
>But remove 80 dps and lower clip size

It was always gonna be dumb as fuck trying to modify a burst weapon to have a sustained weapons stats.

On a hero that cant stand at long range and deal sustained damage OR stay close and deal burst.

Compared to others that play your hero.

I want my lootboxes dammit

Me, my aim is shit and I panic and start spamming skills off cd a lot

By not being a walking corpse.

When will Blizzard stop giving potg to Hanzos who just ult into other people's setups? I know the thing can't possibly always be fair but it should be simple enough to fix this particular issue.

Can someone give me a tl,dw for the last developers update? Anything significant that could make me play again?

I dont get why blizz puts so much effort into making a new hero and then makes them vastly weaker then the other heroes people already know

What color are Widowmaker's nipples? Do you think Sombra has any extra piercings? Asking for a friend, haha

>we're working on stuff but it's not ready and we won't give you any more details

Maybe the most pointless video thus far.

I want to holdkisslove and head pat Lena "T.Racer " Oxton!

this but more specifically, blizzworld coming soon, hero 27 coming soon, saying they want to continue the story, new years and uprising coming back, more content to base boxes coming.
No dates on any of them, just promises.

Thanks. I guess i won't come back for a while, blizzardworld look horrible and will probably be terrible to play on if they keep the new maps trend.

are people actually excited for blizz circlejerk the map?

Latter

You get compared to other player's perforamance at your average ranking and skill level.

No. I’ve never played any other Blizzard games and have no intention to ever do so

yeah, I actually gave it a chance on the ptr and it continues their recent design trends even more. Super open and lots of flank routes. Seems blizzard likes that style.

I dont care about new maps
I care about balance changes

Sick of seeing Genji and Tracer and Mercy shit all over every single game with minimum effort

Lemme play the heroes that get no love like Reaper and Sombra

...

>goggles tan
Cute!

>dead stop on first cap
>team suddenly uses all at once and we take it easy
>"oh great now they learned that if we attack together we win"
But they never learn.

no, not really. I don't even get the argument that it's just meant to be a funny map, I thought that's what we had the hollywood map for.

>>Overwatch gets grannies like Ana and Mercy while Talon gets babes like Widow and Sombra
How is mercy a granny? She looks fine

>tracer
That's a strange way of spelling junkrat

I need some serious hog tips. Why don't people die when I shoot them out of hook? I know it deals less damage now but a solid body shot should still do 100+ damage. But even half hp Sombras escape when I do it.

>almost every character has an ez escape skill
>every team has mercy
so fun

Have you tried aiming?

After hooking and before firing, walk up a bit.

When you get them hook but before you fan shoot them take 1 (one) step forward

>grouped with level 60
>instalocks soldier
>tries to tell everyone to play around him
>tells the highest rank on our team (mccree main) to play tank
>says he'll hard carry if people play around him
>"I was a GM Mercy main"

it's pure RNG, all you can do is land more hooks and hope

...

Yeah but it doesn't seem very effective.

Thanks boys I'll try this.

Junkrat only sees ridiculiously high levels of play at low ranks (Bronze through gold)

He drops off more the higher you get. He's only a menace at lower rank when players arent good enough with tracer genji soldier etc. to instantly shred him to pieces when he shows himself,

He's still decent mind you, just more niche and better at defending chokes and tight spaces. He's actually really well designed in that sense. Has a job he's good at, isnt TOO strong in competent skilled games, and can still contribute overall to a game rather than being too niche

The fact that this game still doesn't have a clan system baffle me. Like, did they really expected six randos to work together every single time? Without arguing the instant something goes wrong?

>play Moira on primary account during season 7 at mid diamond
>get between 30-35 SR per victory
>do placements with Moira on secondary account for season 8
>never get anything but gold on healing
>never below silver on elims, objective elims and objective time
>occasionally get medals for damage done
>get placed at 2600

I'm starting to accept the theory than everything in this game is plain and utterly random. Nothing ever makes sense. I don't give half of a fuck about the placement of that secondary account as I use it for playing Sombra and Mei, but this game is a random fuck fest.

>mercy main on team
>picks moira
just kill me

Reminder to bully Hana Song at all opportunities

tfw boxhogs cant stop the kang

I love this system where 10 members of the match get to enjoy themselves and two are forced to play mercy or risk an unfair match. It's lots of fun.

The fact that this game doesn't have a clan system after two years baffle me. Like, they seriously expect six randos to work perfectly together without arguing the instant something goes wrong? and let's not talk about the state of EU, with russians, french, arabian and basically everyone speaking their language and refusing to speak in English

how did you win as doomfist?

>play mercy first game of placements
>next game
>"well you're the only one with time on mercy this season so you should do it"

u dun goof'd

Do you think Lena Oxton has tanlines from working out outside?

hard wark

Playbtwo matches with a different character. Boom, Mercy stopped being your most played.

antifa tracer does

no. she doesn't work out. she forces herself to vomit whenever she thinks she's getting too fat. that's how she's so skinny.

Running doesn't count as working out now?

is this real life?

I almost have 100 hours in deathmatch already t bh

>cardio

General Roadhog tip - dont stop
If u take dmg you use take a breather cuz If u heal yourself your ult goes up faster
Don't be afraid of genji's ult - you can withstand like a blow or two and take a breather, he wont manage to kill you
If u see mei freezing someone, dva ulting, reinhardt chathing etc hook them because scaring a mei to freeze gerself is more usefull than letting her freeze your teammates

You'll never develop a feminine body without cardio.

Cardio is best for losing weight you retarded fuck

>there's no arcade mode for blizzard world in PTR
wtf what even is the point of PTR then?

This is a foreign land to me.

i dont think blizz actually changes anything from the ptr

How foolish. I see him all the time in my GM games

But I still want to play it. I thought it was gonna go live today.
