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

The first point on Rialto is an absolute joke. One of the most difficult to push in the game imo.

Theres a lot of issues I have with it, its the only paylaod map where the fight begins immediately, on every other map theres a bit of a free area for the attackers to setup and get situated on the cart, but not on this map. You're just immediately thrown into a fight against defense who has both high ground and easy cover, while pushing the cart over a narrow bridge with 2 death pits which only highlights how many knockbacks and stuns are in this game. Its a shame the map is really beutiful and is my favorite in terms of aesthetic, but its just complete ass.

I am still suprised that literally nobody uses the flank routes on Rialto. its always so empty there >.>

Baseball Zenyatta has ridiculously tiny feet. Seriously they are like, Hanzo feet size.

Considering he doesn't walk, it's probably something like muscle atrophy but with robots.

Brigitte is annoying as fuck to play against, but man is her voice cute.

Nothing worse than playing Reinhardt into a good Brigitte

Brigitte's addition made me play the game a lot less.

Same here, even if I think the idea of the character is cool and playing her has been fun (although it also feels cheap to play her). Playing against her is awful for almost every other hero and sucks the fun out of a game. Imo they should just remove the stun and it would be a lot better.

Just keep a distance and you're fine though

"Just don't die"

...no, just keep out of range, it's not hard for most characters

Introducing a character that stuns with their basic weapon.

I liked the suggestion of switching the knockback to shield bash, and the stun to the flail whip.

I might be the only one but i hope there will be crossplay.

Well atleast that Lucio line leaked long ago won't be forever in limbo.

Consoles feature different balancing (Including but not limited to how Torb's turret functions, if I remember correctly) so that could be a bit troublesome. If crossplay were to happen regardless, it would make sense to extend the crossplay to include the other consoles as well. XBOX/Microsoft would probably be happy to oblige, but I doubt Sony would budge.

Ok sure but its still not fun.

Brigitte is the answer to an overtuned hero (Tracer). Changing the stun to her whip will just make her a worse Roadhog in that regard.

Most heroes they have added are a bandaid for a problem that was currently in the game, rather than because they wanted to expand the roster. The only heroes added who dont feel this way was Ana, whom was actually just added for variety among the support heroes. If you actually pay attention when new heroes come out, you kinda notice a pattern with their kits. Sombra was added during the beginning rise of tank meta trying to counter ability based heroes like tanks Orisa was added because Reinhardt had been sitting in mandatory tier for almost a year, instead of re balance him they wanted an alternative, this was quite literally stated in her development process. ~Dive Meta Happens~ Doomfist was originally added to try and stop dive, advertized to have a favorable matchup to tracer and genji (I know he doesn't) Moira was added during the height of Dive meta to give people a support to play who didn't just roll over and die Brigitte was added in a similar light, but was specifically deisgned to hard counter an entire concept of dive in one hero. Hammond is quite literally the "fuck go back" button after Brigitte enabled a meta worse than dive. Its because of this I sorta...stopped caring when new heroes were added.

Dude, why do you even play

I dont lol.

Then why post here

Sorry I'm not allowed to post in this thread about the current state of the game.

No one can have a problem with the state of the game, we must all be all smiles at all times.

... No, that's not what I said. I clearly asked him why he played if he didn't like it, then he said he doesn't even play it. So why post in a thread about a game you neither like nor play? Sure, he obviously can and does post here, but it's fucking annoying

We like to keep Oizen around. <3 We love his weird ... affliction towards D.Va I agree that Brig was a bad addition to OW too anyway. But what really grinds my fucking gears is how broken some characters still are and how "i don't give a shit" blizzard is about it. Exhibit A! https://s1.webmshare.com/RNR7A.webm We usually have videos that end up being "He might not have been shattered because A or B" but I legit can't come up with any reasoning as to why this dude didn't get hit by shatter. Even fucking around in QP is annoying these days.

The way the first person animation for Shatter works is kind of deceiving. You have full control of the camera during the entire animation, but the shatter of the part of the ult only comes out from where ever the hammer was during the descending part of the animation (It's very fast too). As you can tell from the clip, the Rein was looking to the left of the McCree when he ulted, just missing the McCree in the ult's cone.

Then why didn't the Moira get shattered?

She was closer to you than the McCree was, so the cone hadn't expanded that much and just missed her as well.
