She's not even the best single target healer, and that is literally the only thing she can do. Her damage boost is garbage and she dies way too easily. She is probably the worst hero in the game currently.

I'm fine with her being a dyke IF AND ONLY IF she gets with another female hero. Her being gay with some rando is the thing that irks me here.

You shouldn't feel bad about rank. Rank is completely superficial and it doesn't matter what skill level you are as long as you enjoy playing the game.

If you don't like competitive you can always turn into a QuickPlay Rat or an Arcade Rat and just bum up casual games like some of my friends do.

>>163579091
Reaper is plenty viable

>>163579390
Nah, this situation gives people good justification to write doujinshi where Tracer loses to the cock.

I thought they said they weren't doing that. Even if they didn't, I don't think it's going to happen since someone's bound to bristle at it, because then the game potentially turns into a gay couple murdering each other over and over.

Can be buff the goddamn gorilla already? Hero stacking isn't a thing anymore so "muh double winston" isn't a problem for the meta or casual play outside of meme-mode.

- armor reduces him to 30 DPS
- Sym shields make him waste 40% of his clip getting rid of extra health
- Dva buffs, Rein/Zayras perfect balance, and Roadhogs antitank/pick
- Reap AND 76 now both hard counter him
- Mercy now completely outheals any damage he outputs
- Primal Rage feeds the enemy more than it actually gets kills or distracts enemies
- Sym now how a better shield with more health (1000HP) that instantly goes on cooldown for 10 seconds and lasts until it is destoryed
- Winston has a paper one (600HP) that is static, won't start the 13 second cooldown until it is destoryed, last only 5 seconds


BUFF THE GODDAMN MONKEY

+50% damage vs. shields
+Damage ignores armor resistance
+ Bubble instantly starts cooldown on usage
+ AOE knockback on ult activation
+ Primal Rage grants 150 Health on kill

Does this mean they'll definately make Zarya straight so that no one can say they made both of the lesbian-looking characters lesbian?

Will they actually make one of the guys gay, or is that too controversial compared to lesbians?

>>163580708
I think there's a stronger case for a bisexual guy than a gay guy, assuming they don't throw in another lesbian or bi girl. Gay guys in games are usually considered more "mature" material than lesbians are, and they still have to play to the kid-friendly angle Overwatch has going. My money's on Lucio, Genji, or McCree.

>>163581014
They are.
New characters and maps are free forever, you can buy cosmetics with points you earn while playing.
The only paid stuff there is are loot boxes that give you random stuff that you can get anyway with points.

>>163580721
truly

though i don't mind tumblr chub sometimes, just not for mccree

>>163580708
I hope they don't make anybody else gay, straight, whatever the fuck it is.

I'm pro queer shit and this shit ticks me off. Not the fact that Tracer appeared in a comic kissing someone she loves, I was all ok with that, normalizing love no matter what gender and all, what for some reason fucks me off is their "lgbtqxyzabcbbq is very speshul and tracer is lesbiun les b iun gay gay gay" offishul statemunt. Do you see "big announcements" that characters are het or whatever?

It's not normalizing.

>>163580227
well defense teams can suicide until they get a good comp so it is skewed a lil bit if the defending team is smart enough to use it.

Can i get a refund at 300 hours

At the MMR i'm at the game is complete shit and I honestly wouldn't play it even if it was free. It's fun at the lower tiers where experimentation is allowed but when every single match is zarya/reinhardt/ana/dva/s76/lucio i get fucking bored to tears, it's so bad that if my team isn't in the lead by the first 30 seconds I AFK with a script that keeps my character moving so i don't get penalties. I'm told I get reported but i've never been punished because nobody reads reports anyway. Not even QP is safe from this cancer.

I don't give a shit if im ruining the game for other players, imo this is the way the game was meant to be played.

You're fucked either way.

>>163581542
CS's 'meta' is fantastic imo. the gunplay is as fair and skillbased as it could ever be, the maps are balanced to a razors edge and allow new approaches every time. You can carry an entire match by yourself or die in the first 15 seconds without firing a shot and it's great.

None of that is present in overwatch.

True, you can carry overwatch too if you're a great dps, cs older than some people here of course it's so good and balanced.

Truly, Overwatch is the Youtube of videogames.

>>163581952
overwatch is uncarryable by design. Unless you are a quake god pharah with a mercy nanny on your ass 24/7 and the entire enemy team doesn't counterpick you then you can carry any game. But every team will counterpick a pharah the moment they are killed.

I called it the engineer effect in tf2. if you killed someone with a sentry they will be back in the next 20 seconds to sap all your shit guaranteed.

Medic has the upper body strength to kill most classes in his game with one melee hit with a crit and he crits alot. Mercy has weak woman arms and can barely do 25 damage.

hello /owg/, I just started playing ranked again after not playing since release and got placed 1900~ ranking, I pretty much only play roadhog currently. Can any good roadhogs advise me on how to deal with Zarya, and can any good players advise me on some heroes to add to my pool? I was thinking of learning rein Zarya ana and s76 since they seem to be meta. Thanks

Pharah is so disappointing once you realize how slow and squishy she is. She's obviously inspired by UT and quake, but she controls more like a llamaing Tribes character crossed with a brick. but she pops like a balloon when you press shift. no rocket jumping. so lame.

>>163584509
As a former Tf2 player....It's really dependent on what you can handle.

Tf2 is legendary for having a community of children, Brazilians and furries. If you can tolerate that you're fine.

As far as mechanics go, it's a very flexible, class based, first person shooter. It will reward highly skilled players and those players will get SHIT UPON by people who have over 9000 hours in the game. But in all seriousness, mechanically, expect to see some crazy shit that's possible by virtue of practice and patience. You will see some people who never touch the ground as scout or as solly, you will see people with aimbot like reflexes on sniper so just like OW. It's a fun game to be sure, but only if you put the work in to git gud

Let me just say this: If you're good at Tf2 you will SLAY in Overwatch.

>>163584509
tf2 is still pretty fun but it is more skill based than OW especially with movement

I havent played in forever though. If you do pick it up i'd avoid tf2g like the fucking plague though

>>163581393
You can get a refund if you have few hours??

The slightest buff to her would turn her into an unstoppable monster.

Increase the speed of her rockets? More health? Higher maneuverability?

Congratulations, pharah is now a more mandatory pick than fucking Lucio.

>>163584131
I don't think radiation is to blame for Junkrat being good at handling explosives so much as it knocked enough screws loose to remove his inhibitions. Roadhog can be explained away by him being A Big Guy. It's dumb, but this is a universe where normal humans can soak bullets (at least in game), so it makes sense that the giant walking wall of fat and muscle can soak a lot.

Rocket jumping is more robust. Sure you lose health, but you can soar at angles and speeds that aren't possible with the jetpack

>>163584682
There has never been skill involved in TF2.
It brought down the entire FPS genre with the help of other turds like COD4.
Not that OW did anything better.

I have, and I never wasted my time with that.
In fact, people rocket jumping were always easy targets.

>>163584674
I was pretty good in TF2 and I suck absolute donkey ass in OW.

I think my problem with OW is that it's too intense. I can't see shit, there's too many sparkles and noises everywhere, too much detail, too fastpaced, and I spazz out. Colourblind options don't help either.

>>163584661
rocketjumping is 1)really fast 2)creates a skill gap between noobs and skilled players. if you see a fast rocket jumper flying around everywhere you can't help but admire them. 3)has a cost/reward system. You can speed up at the cost of damaging yourself to put yourself in a position to do damage. You could also use it to get out of danger.

The jetpack sucks for several reasons. jetpacking is 1)not fast 2)takes no skill 3)tied to a cooldown that could have been replaced with something actually fun and engaging to use. it's also basically fire and forget which isn't cool or interesting at all. You also can't use it to put yourself into position for anything because it's slow and you can't use it to escape because you reveal yourself to the entire enemy team by using it.

to reiterate rocket jumping is cool and jetpacks are handholdy and dumb and don't respect the intelligence of the player.

>>163584945
My problem with OW is that there's no deadweight. You have to be on 24/7 or you just straight up lose. At least in Tf2 you could fuck up a couple of games and still be golden

>>163584936
boy you better tell the top level players that rocket jumping is useless, it'll change the meta

>>163584881
Yeah, a focused 100% on gameplay that actually requiered skill, instead of the slow as shit Hat Simulator.

>>163584509
>slay in OW

The best TF2 scout is shit in pro OW matches, Shadowburn is a one trick Genji and Seagull is probably the best flex but couldn't play Reaper.

Tviq is the only TF2 pro crushing OW, the rest of the best pros in the world have played practically every shooter from BF4 to Dirty Bomb.

TF2 players can't match hitscan players from other games, straight up. They can play it, but they can't dominate like with projectile heroes

>>163584438
I know Heavy's not crazy but his love for Sasha can be seen as crazy, but

Spy and Sniper are normal paid killers. Scout is also pretty normal, just pretty fucking stupid.

>>163581393
You're a faggot for AFKing. You should know that after a certain rank it's all about "muh meta" and there's a reason why everyone sticks to it, because it's broken as fuck right now. If you don't want to play like that then stick to Arcade/Quick Play since those are relatively untainted by meta fags.

However, I will agree that this meta is easily the worst yet and boring as fuck

>>163584994
>creates a skill gap between noobs and skilled players. if you see a fast rocket jumper flying around everywhere you can't help but admire them

Mostly as Genji

What's a good cheap ass card for this game? My 660 just died.

He's the most fun character for contesting the payload. Throw traps just out of range, blast people off, shoot directly upward and wait for the bombs seven seconds later, it's a ton of fun.

>>163585778
Or how about if that's his normal kit? He can have multiple different rounds from explosive ones, to ricocheting ones, to rounds that give some kinda cc effect.

The way his ult is a 2nd gun would make perfect sense that way.

what the hell is this t. everyone is signing their post with

If you can't reliably track or hit anything, there's always herding. If you shoot to the sides you can force your targets into more predictable patterns of movement. Obviously it tends to work better if you're in a group so your teammates can help finish them off, but it helps a little even when you're alone.

League was like this too.

League did not get it's shit together. It got progressively worst because Riot doesn't know how to balance shit.

Blizzard too, does not know how to balance shit. But at least there's more variety in doing the same shit, pretty much.

Are Rein players the jews of overwatch? The real menace behind everyhting but doing their best to make it look like it's everyone else fault?

REIN AND LUCIO ARE THE REAL KINGS

NERF THEM TO THE GROUND!!!!!!!!!!

>>163586741
The problem about Rein is hes essential by design. To make him not a must pick you'd have to completely change him.

>>163586741
Most people don't bitch about Rein because a big shield and a charge that rarely hits is less annoying than getting hooked behind walls.

>>163586793
Was trying to think of a way to say this, thanks. And at least hes pretty balanced theres nothing about rein that can destroy a team by himself besides his ult i guess but so can a lot of them.

Nobody said you raging autist, stop fucking strawmanning. What I'm trying to convey is Rein is a must pick because of his shield, you take that away and its not Rein anymore.

If you can ship canon straight characters into homosexual relationships why can't you ship the viceversa?

>>163586965
I agree with that

I also agree that he's a must pick

Therefore.. I agree that HE MUST BE CHANGED!

>>163586990
Exactly. Just saying to make Rein not a must pick he has to be reworked completely at a base level, which I'm not confident in Blizzard wanting to risk doing it.

>>163587054
Well I think blizzard needs GUTS! No character should be a must pick.

Do you think Blizzard will ever do something about the shit-ass matchmaking in this game or are they just gonna let it die over time from literal unplayability like they do with all their other games?

lolno

>>163587054
rein needs a delay between turning off and turning his shield back on like dva. would mitigate some cancerous behavor like swinging at hanzos and blocking his shots

>>163587053
Except nobody even implied such. Again, stop fucking strawmanning you mongoloid.
Nobody has even said they'd be opposed to it either, just that in order to make not a must pick you'll have to be completely rework him.

>>163586741
No. Rein is actually pretty balanced.

> no reliable mobility
> no reliable range
> awful sustain
He's only a must pick because he's the only consistent shield in the game and his ult is pretty decent.

Here's why the other three tanks are broken
Dva (easily the most OP right now)
> stupid health/armor pool
> insane mobility
> area denial ult/ room clearing ult
> infinite shield for 4 seconds, eats all projectile ults (Rein's doesn't)
> pretty damn good sustain with her mobility/out of mech
> very good close range damage, but can also apply poke damage from a distance

Zarya
> insane sustain with auto-regen and shields
> decent range (massive splash dmg if charged)
> laser shits damage if charged
> Ult is easily the best in the game

Hog
> great sustain with large hp and self heal
> free picks every few seconds with hook
> great close range damage
> not bad mid range (if you can land alt fire)
> ult is pretty decent, with the added advantage of free environmental kills

I'd say Hog and Zarya aren't "broken" per se but rather a product of the meta. They have too much survivability for their DPS potential, especially in this meta that revolves around sustainability.

>>163587053
Defense Matrix can't be broken and also completely negates most Ults. AFAIK Rein's shield only negates a Rein ult

To fix Rein you either remake him or make someone that does his job in a different way.
Reinhardt is the only true by the book team tank. The other tanks fulfill more specific roles or they don't do anything close to what he does.

>>163587364
Have you never postd on 4chan before?

>>163587282
And 2k damage, which can be only broken by Pharah and hog. Nice try tho.

>>163587278
Reinhardt would be balanced if Bastion wasn't hard countered by every single character in the game except for reinhardt
