What does /v/ think about Overwatch?

very fun in doses

It's okay. I just have some trouble with aiming. I want to play Ana properly but I panic in the middle of a fight and just start shooting in the general direction of my allies.

>>380661910
Fun casual FPS that shouldn't be taken seriously as a competitive game.

>>380661910
Boring and slow.

it's a gear simulator for people who don't play gear based games, same level of cancer as WoW and Diablo 3

>>380661910
Winston is one of, if not my absolute, favorite "class/character" in a multiplayer setting.

Closing the gap anyway, with the Medic in RTC: Wolfenstein.

Get at me.

Uninstalled. I'll look at the cinematics because the characters are fun to watch, but the gameplay has long ceased to be interesting. I'm pretty much done with all multiplayer games, seeing how everything has to be esports nowadays.

Okay for awhile, people get too worked up too often though. It's a nice way to wait for the tf2 jungle update.

>>380662863
What's his deal? I haven't figured it out yet.

>>380661910
Its fun, but not competitive.

>>380661910
good for porn

>>380661910
Should have stayed in beta 5 more years.

>>380663097
To just be a fucking pain in everyone's ass.

It's shit.

>>380661910
the maps for each mode all feel the same, hero design is spread to thin, balance is a joke, skill ceiling is hilariously low, so overall pretty shit.

>>380661910
Fucking garbage made for no skill 10 year olds and SJWs

I like to carry girls for their nudes. Sometimes they refuse but the majority of the time guaranteed wins are too enticing.

Fun game. Requires skill, maybe not as much as CS or other games, but people saying it doesn't don't know shit or barely played it.

Fun pick up and play game for me. Also it's lighthearted so it's fun when I'm in a bad mood.

A potentially fun game dragged down by unfun characters to deal with and terrible maps.

>>380662863

I love playing Winston in mayhem, he's essential in that game mode

>>380661910
It's fun once in awhile. But the lack of steady content flow really leaves a lot to be desired.

I'm also really, really fucking sick of event exclusive cosmetics. Especially for shit like fucking dances. Is Blizzard really this fucking thirsty for cash in a $40 game?

>>380663489
share pls

i just started playing during the free weekend, i think it's pretty fun, the character designs, music and everything is very polished and awesome but the heroes abilities don't seem to have much depth to them compared to something like dota and the shooting doesn't feel as skillful as other games in the genre

Try and define skill ceiling and how it could ever be bounded, then realise you're retarded and only parrot terms you hear on /v/, then drink bleach

It's fun for like 20-30 hours or once you get familiar with the maps and characters.
After that I'm just grinding for pointless cosmetics.

I have 200 hours into this game.

>>380664102
Are you a fucking mong? Think tic-tac-toe vs chess. Skill ceilings are most definitely real and do apply to games like Overwatch.

Buff Torbjorn

>>380663956
>tfw you spend the whole game on the payload defending/moving it and have the most damaged blocked
>don't even get voted for putting in so much work to win the game.

It's a toss up between Winston and Junkrat for Mayhem.

>>380663686
>Fun pick up and play game for me. Also it's lighthearted so it's fun when I'm in a bad mood
Same for me but I have trouble with this as it's terrible to see players being so fucking taunting, nasty, provocative by saying "hello" every enviro kill or teabagging or nagging in the chat, I don't mind it in most games but in such a disney games it feels out of place.

Devs are not only slow as hell but completely incompetent.

>try to buff reaper
>ends up being a net nerf in real world situations that does nothing to improve the actual problems of the hero

>try to nerf hog (again)
>ends up being a net buff (again) that gives him more killing ability outside of using the hook and can still one shot half the cast with the hook

Made me finally admit I'm shit at video games
I can't do shit with any DPS characters, can barely get 20 elims over the course of a comp match in super low gold
The only time I win is when I play support/tank

Easiest, slowest fucking game on the market and I can't get kills. Whenever I performed like shit in TF2 my excuse was that I was playing against ex-Quake dudes.
My tracking is 80 year old woman tier

>>380664256
>think vague psuedo-analogy
There doesn't exist a good definition for skill ceiling because it's a retarded term, what you want to say is "it's easy" without getting called out on you being shit

These. I've played it for about 30 hours over the 2 free weekends. Would buy for 10$ but not more.

>>380664495
I can wreck shit in CS:GO and Siege but for some reason can't aim and can barely kill shit in Overwatch.

>>380664495
How's your flicking? In my experience in overwatch you can make up for a lack of aiming with a dps like soldier or mcree with great positioning

I got to the first AK rank in CSGO doing solo q, which I guess at the end of the day was decent. It took playing daily for like a month to get there though. My aim was probably at its best back then.
>>380664672
I have playes McCree the most. I'm usually terrible, but will occasionally go on a headshot tear. It's probabl my long gone CSGO skills re-emerging for a brief moment

Pretty shallow, and the updates all suck ass

>>380661910
Smash Bros of FPS. Loads of fun if you play casually especially with friends, but shite if you're trying to be competitive.

It's a fun game that most of the idiots here hater for some reason or another.

It's not perfect, but it's enjoyable and one of the better multiplayer games currently available.

>>380661910
I liked it but it has no longevity. TF2 felt like there was enough depth in each character so that I could constantly go back and forth between the two and never get tired of it. I feel bored playing each Overwatch character after like five minutes.

I think it's fun, both casually and competitively, and while the skill ceiling is lower than other FPS games it makes up for it by having a massively higher gamesense/positioning/deciion making skill ceiling than any other shooter

Good and extremely polished game.

Great platform for Blizzard to expand upon this genre of FPS with new hero designs and cool maps.

>>380662752
I casually played competitive game mode but when I got to the high levels it stopped being fun.

Playing quick play isn't fun because people leave constantly, throwing off the balance.

So the game isn't fun most of the time

>>380661910
The only thing they got right was the characters.

Story is bad, poor sense of balance, game play is boring and they keep bending to the fans.

>>380664515
>>380664102
>being this defensive over your auto-aim casual party game
the only skill necessary in overwatch is resource management, that's like a notch above tile memorization games

I stopped playing it because there was no content. It felt as though I was playing the same 3 maps over and over again. Don't know what state it's in now.

>>380665546
Considering the lack of quality of life shit and no replays available, extremely polished is a very, VERY misleading description. For what it is and what company it came from, it is severely lacking in a lot of areas, even though it is fun.

>>380665960
Point out where I even mentioned the game, I took umbridge with the phrase "skill ceiling" and countered it
Are you going to give me an actual definition or can you stop posting, you look retarded and make your phrase look even MORE retarded

>>380661910

It is fun in small doses, and /v/ is convinced hating it is a top tier meme. Then again, /v/ thinks hating every game is a top tier meme, so...

>>380661910
waifubait and i fell victim...again

>>380661910

It's a nice game, and I've had fun with it, but it's got some issues.

>Play casual
>No healers and two snipers
>"Can somebody switch?"
>"Lol it's just casual tryhard"
>This repeats three times leaving the game each time it happens
>Happens the fourth
>"If you leave you will be penalized"
>I baby sit the retards and we get steam rolled
>"Maybe if I play the competitive it will have team work"
>Still full of the same retards who refuse to work together
>Impossible to climb ranks to play with people who know what the fuck they are doing
>Arcade modes are even more unbalanced

I went back to playing TF2. At least their when you get a retarded team you can just leave anytime any amount.

>>380665960
No, that is objectively wrong.

>>380666624
Find one or two people who aren't morons, pick heros that synergise well and carry.

>>380661910
It's fun as a casual game, but they don't produce enough content to keep me interested.
I quit because the only reason to keep playing was loot box cancer.
It made me go back to TF2 for the community servers.

Boring
Low skill ceiling
Poorly balanced
Maps are full of choke points
Press Q to awesome
Microstransactions on a paid game
Basically cancer

>>380661910
It bores me to tears.
I try it with my friends once every two weeks but I can barely make it through half a game.
It's just not fun.

>>380661910
its a gay gayme for gay faggot gaymers queers and queerios.
steer clear at all costs

>>380661910
It's okay.

>>380662790
perfect for casuals

>>380662718
Remember the fact that when not scoped in Ana's rifle is a projectile weapon and you have to lead your targets, when scoped in the rifle is a hitscan weapon.

>>380661910
/v/ is shit at this game. The fact they make threads about the weakest heroes being op, like Mei and saying the legit good heroes are weak, like Winston just goes to show /v/ doesn't play vidya

>>380661910
Its a game about cooldowns masquerading as one about mobility and aim.

>>380662614
Literally me. I can't play more than 2-3 games in a row before the cancer creeps up on me

>>380665656
Comp isn't fun because there's like 3-4 required heroes the game forces you to play.

>>380666365
a skill ceiling refers to the culmination of every element within a game needed to win. an example of one of these elements is the execution barrier: the level of raw physical player input necessary to play effectively. overwatch has a very low execution barrier; few heroes ask the player to do more than hold down a button to make the best use of their abilities, and some like lucio require even less in that you don't have to do anything because it's passive.

do you see where i'm getting at? overwatch asks very little out of its players, and if that isn't obvious to you, then i'm wasting my time.

It's not BADASS enough

I've gotten a lot of fun out of it but the skill ceiling is so damn low I got burnt out. I still play during events but there isn't anything that draws me to the game when those aren't happening. I need to always be striving to improve for a multiplayer game to hold my interest for years like TF2. Plus the content they've added in the first year has been so lacking. Only a few real maps and 2/3 of the new heroes aren't really that fun to play. I don't count cosmetics and hate that the community is already ravenous about skins. Like whenever a new update comes people are begging that characters that haven't gotten a seasonal skin in a while get one. How are they already at such a cancerous state?
