You be annoying

You don't

I played the game for ~10 matches and seems like nobody really communicates at all. Also, I didn't get this "woah..!" feeling - I feel like I'm playing top-down Overwatch or something. How do I get interested more about the game?

OFFICIAL GUIDE ON HOW TO DEAL WITH HANASHIT

STEP ONE: INFORM YOUR TEAM THAT YOU HAVE NO INTENTION OF PUSHING THE PAYLOAD. IF THEY ASK WHY TELL THEM YOU'RE GIVING THEM THE FULL OVERWATCH EXPERIENCE

STEP TWO: HARVEST THE SALT

STEP THREE: PUSH FORTS BECAUSE EVEN IF YOU'RE TEAM ONLY PUSHES ONE PAYLOAD TO THE ENEMY'S TWO IT WON'T MATTER BECAUSE FORTS

Well the entirety of earlier to current WoW designs also blatantly rips off Warhammer, so you can be impressed by that. Mostly the size of the men and the armor designs though. By armor I mean oversized shoulderpads.

It also has the shittiest plot and ending out of all blizzard games.

However it also has waifus which warhammer does not so it's a hard choice really.

>>175590715
That's how both Warcraft and Starcraft got their starts. Blizz couldn't get licensing or something, and so decided to just file the serial numbers off.

Actually, they did get licensing, they just didn't like their past experiences dealing with jumping through that bullshit system. They wanted to work with something they owned, instead of dealing with that headache. And they ran it better than Games Workshop ever dared to with Warhammer.

>they should make the challenge WIN GAMES
Then they'd get a tiny fraction of the number of people they currently get to install the game

>unranked/QM only
restricting it from AI just means more throwers

Look, man, the point isn't actually to have a challenge players need to overcome to get a skin. The point is to get as many people as possible to install HOTS so they can hook a tiny percentage of those people and get more microtransactions.

Blizzard was stupid to make the prizes after week 1 require quick play/unranked/ranked.
Get ready for thousands of throwing OW players in a circumstance literally anyone could have seen coming.

Anyone here experience issues with tabbing out and game bringing itself back to the frontmost?

This still pisses me off to no end ever since the BC launch and introduction of unique models for forest trolls. That's probably the reason I could never play a troll for long in WoW.

What's even worse though is that art at the time still depicted Darkspear trolls as muscled and strong. I wish Blizzard had given them the models of the Amani trolls but in blue&purple when BC hit.

>>175592914
I'm not convinced. There's no way I would've gotten as much healing from ring in that game, not to mention only surviving a few times thanks to the extra 10% hp. I also don't see any reason I'd need to go giant slayer and depend on autoattack damage against their team. Trying to take Fend talents against Genji doesn't seem like a great idea. Also Lighting's Fury almost certainly does more damage once you take pierce and start hitting several heroes with one cast.

Hi all,

Thanks for all of your reports. We’ve confirmed that Quick Match queue times are lasting longer than we’d like in Europe, and after some investigation, have found that Heroes 2.0 has brought in so many players that our matchmaking process is having difficulty making games fast enough to keep up. We’re working as fast as we can to resolve this, but in the meantime, you will likely get into a match more quickly by queuing for other game modes, like Unranked or Hero League.

Thanks for your patience!

>>175595508
Yeah, matchmaking queue is bugged.

>>175598328

Most people who play this game have no idea what they are doing most of the time and need to be told when to stop pushing and join the team fight. 3 times is not nearly enough to indicate that there is someone coming up to gank them because a majority of people have no map awareness.

Lots of reasons to talk in a multiplayer game.

Depends if you have friends senpai.

If you have no friends, get ready to watch helplessly as your team dives into team fights badly, misplay, and otherwise do their level best to make sure you know they're mad you picked an interesting hero that isn't le sneaky stabby meme or a slab of HP tank.

If you have at least 1-2 friends, just Hat them while split pushing, and you'll actually have fun.

Except she's not in melee range, and doesn't get shafted by AoE's. Her only weakness is a lack of escapes, which if you're not a shitter isn't a problem.

They recently attempted a fix by recategorizing certain heroes. And I still get people saying "we can't win this, we have no tank" when the other team only has Sonya.

There is no winning this. You can't hardcode "don't match Chen against Muradin + Diablo" or "No Valla vs. Johanna + Artanis".

Let's say you theoretically group all heroes into "has stuns", "has silences", "aa based", "ability balanced", "mobile" and vice versa. How do you apply all that without pairing certain heroes against certain heroes every single time?

Sometimes, QM is an uphill battle, but doesn't that allow for a more skill testing environment? Maybe a chance to build the character differently?

Considering his play rate I'm surprised he hasn't gotten one already, desu.

>>175605476
Uh, maybe a good Zeratul.

Note to OW players: you must AFK for this to happen.

As long as you ACTIVELY throw the game as opposed to going a hero that respawns where he died and AFKing you'll be fine.

Imagine if they made you have to win all 5 games.

her spell shield at 13 stops zeratul from killing her with his combo

>>175605698
then they'd never get it, overwatch players never win anything

>>175605525
if you can't blow up lunara as valeera never play valeera

nova also blows up lunara if you don't have spell shield for her snipe

>>175605548
>get reported for throwing games
>blizzard removes your quest rewards
You think they actively searched for players who sat AFK in the enemy base with Leoric? The people who got reported were caught and if you throw games you will get reported

>>175604937
Is it high?

>>175605698
then Blizzard would be shooting themselves in the foot because the goal is sheer number of people to try HOTS and making the requirements more stringent would disinterest more people

>shitty post-wc3 voice actor anyway

eh.

>tfw love anub'arak but have his shitty worm-like pleb WotLK voice
>the voice actor voices abathur in the same fucking game but blizz dont have him on anub'arak

It's probably the fact that it is marketed to and attracts the trash players from other mobas and the people that would usually be incapable of playing a moba due to understanding items and being able to last hit

>>175605870
To quote the inevitable post by a dev after a billion people whine on the forums tomorrow:

"There is no way to tell the difference between poor play and intentional throwing (unless the person admits as such in a chat channel)"

Also
>implying 5 games at 0 MMR would yield enough throwing reports to get through their filter
You have any idea how common throw reports are?

She did. It was miserable. Completely wrecked us. At one point, three of my teammates died 3v1ing her because they don't know what Sonya does. (She also had some weird sustain build, not the usual stuff).

But my point was that no matter what, MM will be bad in QM just by virtue of there being too much "has this" vs. "vulnerable to this".

Though, I think it could be fun to make a list of each category. We all know stuff like Kael being Burst AOE while Chen is Mobile, Vulnerable to Stuns, but no one just has a big list of all this.

Maybe years and years of nostalgia? When other MOBA fans refer to this "je ne sais quoi" I can't help but feel it has to be just familiarity.

Then again, I might got play DOTA2 and fall in love, but I wish people would have a better notion of what this game is missing. They don't even usually lean on the whole "gold" and "laning denial". They say our teamfights are boring. Is turn speed really so exciting?

Impactful gets thrown around a lot and I assume that means long cooldowns with huge burst damage or massive mobility, but I don't feel we're missing that.

What heroes do I ban for ranked?

>>175606159
yes

>>175606104
>tfw thousands of training matches
Doubtful, comrade.

>>175605870
Sssh, stop giving them hints.

>>175606159
The ones most detrimental to your team and beg your team not to play Lucio, let the enemy team make that mistake

What does niche mean?

>>175591397
>restricting it from AI just means more throwers
Newsflash: It's always restricted to non-AI games from Week 2 onwards.
