Gorgeous map, as always! ;)
Get that positivity outta here!
In all seriousness, though. It reminds me a whole lot of Rialto. Anyone else feel that?
I'm not strong enough to resist not buying that Mercy skin.
I try to balance the negativity I have with good positivity, and I will always give credit to the incredible, talented Blizzard Art Department! :p
I stand corrected. Havana is already live on the PTR. It's a pure Payload map. No hybrid.
The route is pretty much identical to the Storm Rising version, unlike Retribution which was Rialto in reverse.
And most importantly, no noticeable chokepoints
It's like the love child of Dorado and Rialto. The bright sunlight makes the map incredibly bright and vivid as hell. Unlike the muted Storm Rising version, or Dorado which is during the evening/night. I like it.
Some screenshotties:
Attacker's spawn
First bend. Note the buildings, they are all open to some degree. Flanking options!
Second bend, and first point at the Brewery. Note the sniper spots to the left.
Inside the brewery. Lots of over and under routes. And lots of high ground. And you can get on top of those big brass tanks.
Sexy sexy flank route around the brewery.
Second point inside the brewery. Also adorable little payload that could.
Last bend.
Last bend from another angle.
Final point. For some reason it reminds me of de_dust2

I really like the look and layout of the map at first glance. 1 point though; Do you know the weird small high up ledge at the first point of Dorado just after the door on the side of the building usually used by snipers. Those are all around the first stage of the map up until the Brewery. Snipers will love these.
No chokepoint? I think Blizzard is back and we're getting some good content soon. Screencap me, 2019 is the year of Overwatch comeback.
I always figured they were themed after Greek mythology as an ode to the Olympic games. Which is seen by many as the pinnacle of competition.
And they chose to get rid of the awesome storm setting...
Could have easily been a 10/10 map
My thoughts exactly. Having a map set during a storm would've been pretty sick.
To be fair it is good if they keep visual clutter to a minimum.
Because the core game is cluttered enough
I would like Junkerqueen to try and flirt with Wrecking balls without knowing that the one who controls it is an hamster.
Sorry, it was just a random thought I wanted to share. That would be funny.
Do you ever wonder what it would be like if roadhog swallowed you up into his big belly after he hooked you haha just a thought
Duh, that's nothing, in League of Legends Tahm Kench can literally devour his allies to save them or devour his enemy and minion and spit them out.

And someone asked Riot the question.. and well, they answered.
LoL is staffed entirely by horny degenerates so that doesn't surprise me.
I mean, Blizz probably doesn't consider basically anything when writing.
I mean fuck's sake Mei's backstory requires literally no one checking if the UN's massively important weather station was okay for TEN FUCKING YEARS.
I know of fanfiction writers that write better than Blizzard. It's not just Overwatch, their terrible writing is in Starcraft 2 and WoW as well.
Like, did you guys READ the short story? It's not just poorly written, it's as if a 16 year old wrote it for English class.
Like it's genuinely pathetic how it feels like it was written at such an amateur level. Like how does Chu have a job? No really? He exclusively writes for Overwatch. What does that entail. Does he go to work and write maybe a comic, two shorts, and dialogue for an event in an entire year?
I do not know or understand how does Riot Game answering a Vore fetishist question spurned that discussion about Blizzard inability to have good writing on their game, but I am all for it.
there was nothing stopping Mei from duct-taping the antenna to snowball and asking him to fly up

How much time must have passed in that video anyway?
Thinking of the fact they're at the south pole, it's pitch-black midnight and when she starts moving it's a happy morning sunrise.
She's not going to find a boat, she's going to freeze a way throught the ocean and bike throught it.

The new story feels really badly balanced. It's a complete cakewalk until the Heavy Assaults show up, then the entire team just collapses instantly.
While we´re all here being complete degenerates about videogame characters, can we discuss the tragedy that is Hammond's lovelife? Like, people go on about how Winston is doomed to be single because after evolving he would probably crave a partner of human intelligence and faculties but that would be weird and being with one of his own species would be like getting together with a neanderthal. But at least he would be the right size.
Now, according to this spray Hammond is way larger than any potential hamster partner and needless to say he is also too tiny for any potential human partners (which would also be even weirder than Winston).

It's fine, I'm sure Junkerqueen will want to find a way for him.
thank you micheal chu very cool
Made my first ever Overwatch video. It involves philosophy, singing, DJing, buddha, band-aid man and content creation.
