I'm not a big fan of the art style/direction myself, but what exactly were you hoping for? An RPG set in hanamura or something? Some of the overwatch settings would make good racing game courses imo

>>382015392
>but what exactly were you hoping for?
Literally anything but a fast-paced multiplayer-only game. The art direction and asset quality are lost on the trash genre.

>>382014815
>irreparable input lag
couldn't you repair it by just turning the settings down

>>382014815
A Singleplayer story mode will definitely come and it will cost $40

>>382016245
Why the fuck would they waste their time and money on single player when they can earn 5x more with 5x less effort with event lootboxes? The only way I ever see it happening is if the game dies down and needs something to generate new interest.

>no one turns up the settings to avoid irreparable input lag which puts you at a competitive disadvantage
red pill me on this. what settings increase input lag?

>>382016245
>>382014958

This. The demand is too high and the lore is too truly the deepest. Once the overwatch buzz starts to die down and something starts to overshadow it on twitch, blizz will roll out a story mode dlc that'll instantly double their profits.

>>382016574
Pretty much all of them, pros play with everything on low as possible. Maybe only texture quality won't fuck you over.

>>382016863
well i was hoping for something a little more substantive and evidence based. there has been tests triple buffering and window mode. but havent heard for other settings.

>>382016863
Sounds like you are confusing fps and input lag

>>382016574
things that manipulate drawing frames onto the screen, v-sync, triple buffering etc.
every other setting increases input lag indirectly by lowering fps. if you get [monitor's refresh rate]+10 fps on max settings, there isn't any logical argument to lower graphic settings.

>>382014815
>OW is cheap and soulless because it's an FPS and I don't like that
Stop being so entitled you fucking crybaby

>>382017210
>not always shooting for double refresh rate + 50
fag

>>382017362
Multiplayer FPS are the capeshit of videogames.

>>382016574
input lag is not fps, so contrary to what the retards on here say, no. Increased texture quality or reflections will not increase input lag.
If you turn on triple buffering, that will increase input lag. If you play on windowed mode you will increase input lag, if you select fullscreen that will reduce input lag.
If you go in game or practice range, press ctrl SHIFT N and it should bring up a little menu and graphs and you should see this thing called SIM if the value is 10ms or lower, you are golden, if it is over 10ms then that usually means input lag is noticeable and you should take steps to reduce it

The input lag nearly killed it for me. For a while I couldn't put my finger on why it felt so awful to play and why I just could not aim right, thinking it was some kind of hidden mouse acceleration and nobody talked about it. It doesn't appear to be a problem for most people, though. I have it mostly fixed now, but I still feel my aim is better in various other FPS games.

>>382015392
Project Titan.

>>382017636
thanks dude. thats what i thought. guess these guys are peddling fake news like cnn. how about the theory that if your fps dips below 60 then you get some input lag?

>>382018194
well...not below 60 necessarily, but generally yes, the lower you go in fps the more input lag you will have but if you're between 50 and 60 you're alright.
BUT you have to remember that while people talk about optimal settings all day, the most important aspect of playing is how comfortable you feel playing it. So sometimes a stable but lower fps can be better than a fluctuating higher fps. To a point anyway

>>382018437
thanks

>>382018194
Technically no but every frame gives a new reference to base your next input. Also vsync is biggest culprit for input lag. Always turn that off

>all those great character models wasted on a first person only game

Overwatch fans are truly the worst.

It's neo-blizzard. This is literally all they are good at now. polished graphics.

>>382020605

plus, how is it stylized? it's basically disney animation with characters that 14 year olds would make up.

He made that exact point.

>>382020706
anything that's not generic realism is stylized retard

>>382020310
When talking about the game's potential for admiring the visuals, it is extremely fast paced.

>>382020869

technically, sure. but it's dishonest to call OW's generic graphic style that's existed for decades stylized.

Cartoonish would be a better term. Stylized makes it seem like there was creativity involved.

>>382020706

It has a bright and colorful palette with each character having their own distinct look and sillouhette, combined with maps that take place in a mixture of semi-familiar environments with the backdrop of hyper-futuristic settings. Take for example the typical oriental temple look of hanamura with the enormous metropolis spread all around it

It does look pretty pixar-y, but It's a pretty unique look for a first person shooter

>>382014815
You realize that Overwatch is the phoenix that rose from the ashes of Titan, their failed MMORPG, right? It WAS going to be a different genre. But when they realized that everyone who made Warcraft and WoW in the first place left the company years ago because the new folks are incompetent dipshits, they said "Fuck it, make a moba/fps out of what's left becauase this sucks balls as an MMORPG"

And that's how Overwatch came to be.

Oh my god why can't I block it? ONLINE COMBOS. WOOOOOOW.

>>382014815
>create stunningly beautiful stylized video game with atmospheric maps and amazing character models
It's just fucking Pixar.

In fact, I am surprised Blizzard still hasn't struck a deal with them for a movie.

The gameplay is shit, the online mode a disaster that doesn't even let you pick a mod, let alone a map, and the community is pure cancer.

Also Jew propaganda.

Those are the problems.

Disney/Pixar animation -is- the style.

>>382023064
Pretty much now that A) the original devs are LONG gone and its just marketers and bullshitters left at the company riding the corpse of WoW, and B) They've seen how much money they can make off lazy shit like Hearthstone and HOTS without needing to maintain nearly as much effort

It's TF2 with more polish and money.

>>382023435
Was HOTS actually successful? I don't know anyone who tried it and dumped in 2 weeks to play LoL and Dota 2 again.

>>382023852
Successful for people who already played MOBAs? No. For people who don't play mobas because they're fueled purely by rage and just want a simple similar game without all the "HUEHUEHUE" "FFS BOT STOp FEEDING YOU RUSSIAN FAGGOT" etc etc, yes.

>>382023946
No, successful popularity wise. I don't even know any people who play it regularly.

>>382014958
That actually will not be so easy considering it would be a competition to Destiny 2 which is published by Activision Blizzard and will be the 1st non blizzard game to be available on Battle.net.

You don't like it, doesn't mean it's trash. Accept reality.

I'm new to overwatch and recently hit lvl 25. When should I try competitive play? I'm afraid I'll get my shit pushed in.

This is taken from an esports stream. The only HUD in Overwatch is the character health/portrait, ammo and abilities, and the objective at the top.

>>382024965
the game determines a hidden MMR for you based on your gameplay in qp matches, so you should get matched with people of similar skill to do your placement matches.

Overwatch single-player campaign sounds like something that wouldn't hurt the game if done not half-assedly.

Instantly and forever, it's the only meat of the game. Don't be afraid, stupid shit will happen a lot and you will get your ass kicked anyway. Just playing does not make you good check out guides'n shit if you care enough. When somebody has a mic and sounds even tiny little bit asshole, mute instantly. Comp is not as serious as you would think. If your faggot teammates solo around the map and don't give a shit about the objective, switch to torb and have fun.

my sides
I agree the game is soulless because it has literaly zero coherence like any mobas ever, however to call the game play hectic, even fast is a big fat joke, its one of the slowest games I've ever played with weapons doing fuck all damage and players having to rely on their press Q to win to achieve anything see: every POTG ever

Imagine Overwatch without ultimate abilities. Just imagine how much better it would be competitively.
