Duh.

>>323341745
played it and it doesn't suck. Although my view isn't tainted by having 3000 hours in CS:GO or TF2.

Hopefully it does well, it is pretty fun.

>>323341745
it's made for consoles so it's gonna suck on PC

>>323342632
what does that mean?

>>323343503
It means that the tickrate is stupidly low and they're trying to claim it's an "artistic choice" the same way console devs claimed 30fps was somehow better for gaming.

>muh tickrate meme

no one gives a fuck, blizz games are made to be addictive and fun and not to be tryhard bullshit

>>323343770
...
I don'T know what tick rate is
My guess is that it's how often the server captures your position?

>>323343976
How often there's an update between client and server per second.

>>323341745
20 TICK
0

T
I
C
K

>>323343398
So it needs 50 button controls and fighting combos to use abilities?

>>323343920

This is also the same game where they were originally going to have the FOV setting locked until almost everyone ever collectively told them that was goddamned retarded and they changed it (somewhat, last I'd heard).

Blizzard doesn't seem to have a single fucking clue what they're doing and are more than likely cashing in on whatever consumer good will and blind fanboyism they can to carry the game, rather than actually good game design.

>>323343976
Yes, it basically means everyone moves around at 5 fps.

Enjoy your jerkfest, blizzdrones.

Mists of Pandaria

Why they didnt just make it higher tickrate? Cant be that difficult.

>>323341745
if you keep beating that idea in your head, it will

>>323344336
People who playtested the game didn't seem to complain.
Even Dunkey didn't even mention it.

>>323344336
But he says they have a high tickrate

>>323344475
Its nit actually 20, its just a meme

Blizzard:
>Heroes of the Storm is broken on newer cards, dropping down to 20-30 fps
>Dozens of posts on the forums about it, complaints. Multiple posts with more than 5 pages.

From them, I barely expect things to work or function right. The fact that they want to make this game have an esports community is laughable. Have fun with your 10,000 pool prize.

>>323343976
You know how in TF2 you can shoulder-peak rockets and grenades onto sentries so you don't get hit? If you try that in Overwatch you will get shot at by the sentry anyway, even if you were there for .1 second because the servers counts you as being there for like 1 second.
You played the beta, right? If you did, did you ever Dash through someone as Tracer only to die anyway, and the killcam shows you dying before you dashed? That's 20 tick.
Did you play Widowmaker and get lodes a headshots even though you can't snipe for shit? That's 20 tick.

It's fun.

Don't know why some anons here are demanding it be an ultra competitive CSGO like game. Not like any of you actually play that trash anyways, and for good reason. It's actually unfun to play ultra competitive games.

So I'll just keep enjoying OW.

Is that why Dota 2 and CS:GO are the top played games on Steam? Because they are unfun?

>>323345084
Nah, it's because people get autistically invested into it. Some people just want to lay back, and play a game.

How is getting rich not a plus? Valve games pretty much pay for themselves.

>>323345084

I think fighting games are the most fun and they are the MOST competitive genre though

>>323345430
weew laddie I guess nobody plays football for fun

or baseball

or basketball

or any sport for that matter.

>>323345734
Yeah because HotS is so successful by being casual garbage right?

>>323345629
>Thinking you can make a living off competive sports.
>Thinking it's the rule.
Bet you also think living in your mum's basement is fine living.

So the thing with the tick rate in Overwatch is it's not as much of an issue as in CSGO, if CSGO had 20 ticks it would be unplayable, because hit detection is handled differently. In Overwatch it favors the guy shooting while it's the opposite in CSGO. So as a casual game it's much better, if you aim at someone's head and shoot you will hit 100% of the time, which is definitely not the case in CSGO.

>>323345684
>not a plus
It's the main incentive to play. Overwatch has absolutely zero financial incentive to play right now, and therefore those that ARE playing it, are doing it because it's pure fun. There isn't even any progression mechanics, but these are going away because normies can't stand not being given a treat every 5 minutes.

>>323345891
HoTS didn't fuck up just from casual, it fucked up because cash shop.
Casual does not equate to being bad, it just means easier.
Hardcore does not equate to being good, it just means it's harder.

>>323345993
There is an incentive. Sunken cost fallacy.

>>323345891
Did you reply to the wrong person or are you autistic?

>>323345684

except it's not buzzwords you cunt

dota 2 is literally at the assend of moba communities.

I installed it last week, and when I tried to deny a creep, and accidentally hit the other for a last hit instead of the carry I got pinged repeatedly, and presumably sworn at in peruvian dingdong language.

Then a russian game, then a game filled with the utmost retarded people I've ever met that didn't understand even how their dick works, or that shit comes from their asshole.

CS:GO? Hah. It's got great things behind it, but the crates, the skins bullshit. I've had people come in a ranked match just to try and find someone to trade with. It's usually always kids, too, and I was at MG2 so it wasn't -that- bad, but not amazing.

They're both fairly bad games filled with a community of shit.

>>323345993
>Zero financial incentive.
So your pretty much being Blizzard?

>>323346146
Yep the sunken cost does apply, it's less of an active incentive and more of a subconscious one though.

>>323346263
>So your pretty much being Blizzard?
I'm trying to work out what you're trying to say.

>>323346459
You pretty much said that CS and Dota 2's main incentive to play is because you can make back your money and then some, not because it has good gameplay.

It's pretty fun actually. I got in the beta and I've been playing a bit. Characters are all different enough from each other that encounters are fun and make use your head as you have to figure out what would be the best action to take against their char. Personally my fav character is Genji just for the cyborg ninja part and he's really fun to play too. My biggest complaint would be the short respawn time. The spawn time is about three seconds long so if you're in the last part of the a capture the area it becomes a really huge chore to keep enemies away from it. I'll buy it, not for 40 bucks, but 20 bucks is reasonable.

dumbed down console shit for the idiot wow playerbase

>CS:GO costs $15, can make you millions just playing it
>Overwatch costs $60, get absolutely nothing out of it

The choice should be obvious.

20 tick? Man even Rainbow Six:Siege just increased their tickrate from 30 to 60.

>>323346740
This, both games are shit.
Their only popular because they can make you vidya money to buy other vidya on steam. It's why everybody sucks and is so toxic, it's pretty much their game funds.

Obvious weaknesses that will hamper the game:

>low skill ceiling and casual pandering mechanics
>garbage match making system ported straight from HotS
>no private servers or modding tools which are CRUCIAL features that would tenfold the longevity of the game and build a community around it

Of course there isn't, the game is still in fucking beta.
Who the fuck is going to join a private server when the player community is so low?
>horribly low tickrate
Actually a problem, needs fixing.

I mean look at how bad Diablo 3 and wow are now. BliZard has become EA but more jewish and liberal

>>323348275
>low skill ceiling
lol no, sorry but the game is deceiving in that aspect.

The rest of your points are actually trash outside of tickrates (can be adjusted anyways). I highly recommend spending less time on reddit and having your opinions formed by the same spergs who ruined Tribes.

are you talking about the NA version of d3 because it has no cash shop?

Poe is better than d3, and blizzard lies about Diablo sales numbers

D3 vanilla was bad but better than the current aids fest of ros.

They did to uniques in Diablo what they did to legendaries in wow. Some people definetly like it, but they usually aren't loyal for more than a week or 2

How many people play Diablo 3 2 months into a season?

>>323349857
IMO it's the fact that they got eaten up by Activision which made WoW worse.

>>323350007
Most aren't going to play it for it's competitive scene anyway, so why should you even care if there's no ladders?

Because it adds a significant number of players to the pool that have the desire to play competitively to improve themselves with respect to others. It's like a progression system, it keeps you coming back to be 'better'.

Not to mention esports fuckery

Blizzard doesn't deserve a cent of your money or a second of your time.

It's time to tell those faggots where they can get off.

>>323350914
>if their that fucking important.
of course they are you dipshit, literally every other Blizzard game has competitive ranking systems, 4/5 of their games have / in the past have had tournaments with prize pools hosted by Blizzard

I played it.
It's literally TF2 with some really boring, stupid ass classes. It's not too bad, but it's like your favorite pizza got stale and somebody did his best to make it edible again and also make it more presentable than it originally was.
Most of the classes are pretty fucking bad and the only thing to them is that they each rely on a gimmick
If you want to play an FPS game just get CS:GO. It's literally the only one worth playing that isn't fotm shit that will die within weeks (like R6 Siege will). If you want something fun and not serious bigboy shit just get TF2.

>>323341745
I'm not in the beta yet, but I'll admit that I'm excited for this game. I've watched several videos, and my biggest complaint from watching is the HUD. It needs to be customizable by some measure.

This ticrate issue is something I actually hadn't heard yet, and does sound like a legitimate gripe; especially if you're looking at it from a competitive perspective.

>>323351506
I've been playing TF2 on and off since beta. The game is practically ruined (Valve should create a competitive mode, tweak the classes base weapon stats, and make competitive only base weapons IMO).
CSGO isn't even the same sub genre of game, and honestly I'd rather play Unreal 4 if we're talking deathmatch, which is basically what CSGO is (bomb planting is WAY more utilized than rescue, and both are by and large secondary objectives).

It's been a downward trend since SC2. Name one game since that hasn't been a flop.

>>323353375
>one bad game
I don't know,
WoW and SC2 killed their respective genres, and HotS is budget DOTA.

The only decent thing so far was Hearthstone, and thats only good as a timekiller mobile game

>>323353524
SC2
Hearthstone
D3 ROS
HOTS

>>323353692
Hearthstone is the only game that wasn't a flop, since it cost absolutely no money to make and cashed-in on the app game bubble.

Everything else failed.

>>323353880
>I didn't play these games so they're failures

OK chief, pretty much the only recent failures by Blizz have been the most recent WoW expansions

>>323354118
D3 was a failure that mostly sold on the popularity of its predecessor. Sure in it's current state it is less terrible than it was at launch, but it's still a bad game.

SC2 is dead.
D3 is dead.
HotS was DoA.
WoW is dying with no hope of resurrection.

So no, It isn't just the recent WoW expansions. It's their recent library. It also isn't that I don't play these games, nobody I know or nobody on /v/ plays these games.

There are better alternatives that exceed in everything Blizzard neglected simply out of incompetence. That's what happens when people like Rob Pardo and the people who made their actual good games leave.

>>323354118
You don't get it, 30 million for sales is a flop for Diablo 3 and I bet it hasn't broke even.

>>323354779
D3 is doing quite well and still receives updates, and its in a really good spot
HotS is fine
WoW is still a money fountain
SC2 still made a lot of money
