why the fuck am I only getting sprays and voice lines in the new year loot boxes? Did Blizzard nerf the drop rates?

It's a nerf. He can't headshot. He's weaker but less situational because of buffed spread while mobile, also can heal while moving.

Turret mode is ruined, but recon mode is how a 300 hp solider who can heal on the move so there is that.

They did say it was the most played mode. And anyway, they had all the assets probably for it anyway.

They already have different maps converted over, you know they were going to put it in, no matter what.

I like it. I am a noob Reinhardt playing quickplay and the turret mode scares me shitless. Considering that being it quickplay my team just doesn't give a fuck and doesn't put effort in the game, if the bastion is even remotely good i'm pretty much fucked

I got to try it for a bit before being booted.

The transformation is really fast, and mobile healing is dope.

I didn't really notice any damage lost but I dont really play Bastion. He still melts people pretty quick in turret form.

If anything, ult charge should go DOWN when doing nothing.
If a character isn't actively doing damage, contesting, healing, etc, ult charge should go down at the same speed that it currently goes up at.

Is this poll serious? She's a fucking joke. If she gets her hands on the objective, game's over and done without any doubt. Even if she's a stupid and bad symmetra.
I fear her as a DPS class way more than McCree or Genji. That's not normal for a support.

You realize it works both ways right?
If anything, it brings the match back to a zero point, where neither team has ults. Which personally sounds better to me, forces the game to move instead of dancing around waiting for ult charges.

Yes. People are misreading the patch notes believing all headshots are removed, but that's only for sentry mode. Recon mode just has a tighter spread and slightly higher ammo count.

Stop pretending that you got constant headshots in sentry mode.One way or the other, damage never was a Bastion problem

>>167699548
Soldier can shoot, dodge and heal at the same time.
Soldier is smaller target than Bastion.
Soldier has much higher mobility with sprint.
Soldier can burst down enemies.
Aimbot is better than tank.

When is Blizzard going to allow players to design new maps/cosmetics?

>>167699623

Do you really think 35% less damage now that he can't shoot anything but rein shield really matters?

His spread was increased by fucking 50%, is at perma full spread and cannot crit anymore. Good fucking luck killing even a pharah before she kills you now with an extra rocket.

About server browser
New Feature: Server Browser

Starting today, every player can create their own, unique Overwatch experience and share it with their friends, their teammates, or the entire world. Introducing the Server Browser.

An extension of Overwatch's Custom Game mode, the Server Browser allows you to adjust the settings on various maps, modes, and heroes, creating your own tailor-made server. If, for example, you want to increase Pharah’s missile speed or remove the cooldown from McCree's Combat Roll, the power is yours. Once you're happy with your settings and you're ready to launch your game, you'll need to set up the permissions. You can limit the number of people who can join your game by toggling the "Friends Only" or "Invite Only" options, but if you want to put your strange creation to the real test, set your server to "Public" and click the launch button.

The Server Browser is currently being tested, so we'll be making changes throughout the PTR. Thank you for helping us test the feature, and we're excited to see what you make of it.

Man. I'm genuinely depressed. I only joined in December and this game is already fucking dying broken trash. I want my money.

Instead of trying to make Reinhardt unviable Blizzard should focus on what makes the other tanks more viable than dps(Ana).

Reinhardt will always be in the meta, Blizz needs to understand that.

>>167700545

If they want Reinhardt out of the meta then they need to do a complete redesign of all maps. How are they surprised that a character with a big shield is always picked when maps are tiny corridors.

Is it just me or does Overwatch hand hold people too much?

So many HUD elements, the entire game feels like a tutorial.

In some cases, it can have the opposite effect. Take KOTH for an example. The giant icon covering the controlpoint can make it pretty hard to see who or what you are shooting at. Especially when the icon is red.

I actually feel like the HUD is completely off. The ultimate charge meter doesn't need to take up such a big space since for most of the time it's useless information unless I'm at 90% or above.

Whereas with health it takes up almost no space and I'll often just not even realize I've only got 50 health, whereas in TF2 that shit would be red and flashing so you could easily tell from your peripheral

Don't know if he's with Talon, but that line indicates Doomfist wants Reaper and Widowmaker to get the gauntlet for him, which means he's technically not Doomfist yet.

Having to deal with three full respawns of the defense team on the last point is hell, they should have either sped up the payload even more, or put the defensive spawn further away.

her only real counters are widow and bastion
