Sounds like how most good supports are treated in any competitive game, though. You always have to eliminate them and, in a lot of cases, they're either #1 or #2 in the priority list of whose ass you should kick first.
Beyond flat out removing support roles from your game there isn't much you can do which would effectively stop them from being the priority target in any fight.
beep boop lol
Didn't we have one for OW specifically?
Yeah I think so, I just don't know what it is. In the FP discord there is a list of servers for specific games, so it's bound to be in that list.
Yeah it's the Facepunch Battle.net one. I just checked my server list
So far perfect thread. No Oizen around
Sombra's the best character, but all you plebs are too worried about being filthy Hanzo mains.
Torb will always be my daddy

Just remove DVA from the game
Main tank in gold looking for a group if anybody wants to play
I wish Overwatch was like... a good game. It can be fun, but it's unbalanced, buggy and has poor design parameters. There's also no way to connect the gameplay to the story, or even an explanation as to why there might be all these heroes are fighting 6v6, often fighting with their in-lore enemies and/or against their allies. Speaking of the story, it's superfluous. It's a glamour they want to present as cohesive but the plot's so vague and nebulous and anything is subject to change based on a few head writers' tweets (Mr. Chu, I'm looking at you). The only things firmly set in place are pretty much just tropes taken from the sci-fi and superhero stuff Overwatch is inspired by.
Also Brigitte is cute what's her number?
I'm pretty sure he'll come here soon enough.
shhh youll summon him
They've stated multiple times since before it was even released that the gameplay has nothing to do with the story or lore, it's not canon at all.
If you think Overwatch is unbalanced and buggy, I'd like to know what hero shooter you are playing because I'll definitely check it out.
I seem to have glossed over that, but thank you for informing me. That's fine, I suppose. It's not necessary for the story and game to be tied to each other.
I wish I had a game to recommend but Overwatch is honestly the only game I know of its type. Well there's Paladins, I guess? I have it, but I haven't tried it yet. I'd love another hero FPS, though.
Also, I do enjoy Overwatch personally; I'm fond of a lot of the characters and the game is fun to play with friends. I just feel like there are a lot of bad design and writing choices. The focus on cosmetics gotten from loot boxes is also annoying to me. I want less focus on pretty aesthetics and more emergent gameplay. I hope that day will come for OW. But if it doesn't, that's fine, and I won't rag on anyone who plays it! I know it's fun and I'm glad people are playing games they enjoy.
i would say its unbalanced in that 90% of games are one sided stomp fests, idk about buggy on a regular basis but they HAVE obviously had issues with doomfist and other abilities for certain characters (that i cant think off of the top of my head) in the past that have gone unfixed for many months.
the "unbalanced" part is so bad for me that my friends and i dont even play on a regular basis like we used to anymore. we only play during events that we have to have remotely any interest in, like CTF or PvE. shit is just too frustrating when we get seemingly stomped in a good portion of our matches. its not even us really, my friend is a good DPS and i would like to think im a good healer/moira (i placed 3300 in CTF comp and when i last played real comp in season 2 or 3 or something i was 3000), the game just regularly puts us up against people that are like, 700-1000+ SR above us in actual comp, master to GM. we regularly check the SR of the enemy before a game begins, and thats pretty much the average. we still get games where we stomp the other team, but thats not as common as us getting stomped. even more rare is the games that are actually fairly close, where even if we lose i at least enjoyed myself because it was actually fair.
So uprising or something similar to it should be the next event, right? I do hope they'll add more than one map for it this time around.
if they bother to want to do anything like they just did with CTF there should definitely be a new one. i was hoping they would do that for junkenstein but they didnt and opted to half ass an "endless" mode that wasnt even really endless (and was also just frustrating). PvE is the best thing for them to do anything canon story related in game so it would be stupid not to.
I play Paladins, it is far more unpolished than Overwatch imo. The people who make the cosmetics aren't even the same team as those who make new gamemodes and maps, but I see where you are coming from. IMO the game needs new "official" game modes, I mean you'd think we'd at least get a hybrid map that is payload->capture point.
