Overwatch- After 2 long years, Symmetra is finally good. - Games

I need that. I hope they're not too expensive.

This is coming from the same developers that sells a lucio emote for $30.

Not too sure about that D.va pistol. It seems too pink when compared to the D.va Cosplay Reference Guide. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/58120/957d2c39-12b7-4334-829c-9f3435aae3b6/image.png

I don't think the prices of nerf guns are that bad, especially not the pistol looking ones. But since it's overwatch themed they're probably going to jack up the price.

I'm pretty sad it looks like nothing will change with Lucio despite the world cup. I'm not asking for FIFA: Overwatch edition, but if you're going to do the same event, at least do something cool with the biggest competition involving the sport...

Wake me up when its the next Archives event.

new summer legendary for D.va https://twitter.com/PlayOverwatch/status/1025531766256230400

D.Va seems incapable of getting bad skins.

I'd love a CQC Tank hero that's based on the Bouncer Big Daddy from Bioshock since it has a lot of abilities that translate well into OW. Drill for bashing and boring, and can deflect or reduce the damage of incoming bullets and projectiles for as long as 4 seconds before it runs dry and needs to reload. It's only form of range attack is an ability which is literally a double barrel shotgun that functions similarly to Hanzo's storm arrow but on a low cooldown. It's total damage per shot is 120 (10 x 10), and is extremely quick at a follow up shot. A drill dash ability that behaves differently whether or not the drill is spinning; doing a normal dash is just impact force like DF's rocket punch, dashing while spinning up will pin an enemy to the ground or wall, and quickly bore them to death unless punched off. A drill slam ability that digs through the ground and causes a tremor that slow down and disorientates your enemies in a radius, which can allow you to line up a shotgun blast to the head or a drill dash. A passive called pair bond would allow the tank to "protect" their target by taking 35% of the target's damage taken and gives the tank a speed boost when the target is being attacked. Ultimate turns the tank into a living conduit of electricity and all attacks (drill, its abilities and the shotgun) are electrified, dealing DOT similar Ana's dart rifle.

So, something I was thinking about and even asked about on the Overwatch forum without any replies of substance: When browsing the "Find Group" list you get a lot of group names like: "Road to silver/gold/plat etc" "X´s group" "2-2-2" "Use mic+open profile or kick" And so forth. Very rarely do you get any more description about what the group actually needs, what the creator of the group plans to do or anything like that. I also find that groups that demands mic very rarely has any actual communication, maybe one or two people tops which is pretty much what you get when solo-queing. Are groups that follow the meta and have locked in roles more likely to succeed in low elos? What about the roles the creator picks? Is a group created by a healer more likely to succeed than a group created by a DPS player? Have anyone been doing any statistics about group names/creator roles and if they actually reflect on the gameplay that follows? What about endorsements levels? Is a group created by a 4-5 player more likely to succeed than one with a lower endorsement? What about the amount shot-calling the group creator has. Does this factor in? In my experience, surprisingly little.

Bare foot D.VA.. I can already hear SFM loading on hundreds of computers...

Does someone have that post from the Battlenet forums asking for an emote for every hero to take off their shoes?

He's going to be so happy right about now.

What an insanely appropriate avatar you have

Summer skins looking good. Now just a Mei and Mercy skins are all I need next

This plus sitting emote means Football man can kneel in Overwatch.

Ugh ffs Blizz why'd you have to bring politics into the game

i think i t looks dumb tbh

I've just seen the sprays for Wrecking ball The sprays with the overwatch cast all watching TV (presumably watching Hammond fight in the Arena?) is the CUTEST SHIT EVER I LOVE IT

Yeah he should have bare feet.

I'm hoping for meaningful content. But everyone's just caring about skins.

I've just started playing again after a long time, and I kinda like Junkrat better before all the nerfs to compensate for the second mine.

I've long since given up on the idea of Overwatch events bringing meaningful content. The only one I ever look forward to is Archvies for this reason.

I'm just waiting for the inevitable Basketball/Baseball Zenyatta skin

I think giving a baseball skin to a character than can't have one of their items turned into a bat might be a waste but a basketball one sounds amazing

Reaper already has "it's in the refrigerator" so...

I read Archviles and I thought we already have a resurrecting demon caster in this game. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/143764/85a39eac-f3ef-49f3-b381-378a3bd65090/image.png https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/143764/eef9b93f-ed17-4326-b671-15dece8ec396/image.png

I just noticed that Spirit Halloween has replicas of Reaper's Shotgun available. Looks a bit more game-accurate compared to the Nerf one. Looks like there are restrictions on where they'll ship it, though. Reaper Shotgun Also still holding out for that Mercy Lifegaurd skin. https://i3.wp.com/img00.deviantart.net/9ac2/i/2017/217/4/0/lifeguard_mercy_skin_concepts_by_flurryfox-dbj0kb9.png
