Overwatch - She who has the information, has the power - Games

It boggles my mind that Practice Range is online only. Do you really need to be online for that???

[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;50787668]I don't ever get that but then again nobody plays in Aussie/NZ.[/QUOTE] I played against someone ages ago with the name "Kiwi", but I didn't say anything in case it wasn't you.

[QUOTE=Banned?;50787688]Sounds like you guys need to actually practice aiming. And I mean [I]practice[/I]. [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFIritvrMxY[/media] Aim Botz was a fucking Godsent for me in CS:GO. Something like this should definitely help in Overwatch.[/QUOTE] I eagerly fired up OW and tried this, only to discover that not only is my computer too slow to let me consistently aim like I would need to (which I sort of knew already and is the reason I play mainly support and non-hitscan heroes), my aim itself is pure garbage to begin with.

I feel like the performance increase I got in one of the last few patches has really made a difference with aiming

I got that Seagull Skin for Genji earlier today and did a random match that ended up with my completely bullying the other team without dying once. I'm tempted to say I want to play more Genji now but I know it was a fluke. Also opened up my boxes I've been saving up through the day and got Punk Tracer. Fucking RIP me. [editline]28th July 2016[/editline] Wait a second, looking at my replay where the hell was the hanzo I killed? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUwxnuFEbio[/media]

hey are there discord rooms for specific heros? I want focused character discussion

"Finally a legendary item, I wonder which o- *Another Widowmaker Legendary*" :suicide: In another news I got my first star, time to get a few easy loot boxes.

[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;50787658]Speaking of usernames, I've been recognized like 5 times in OW. "Aren't you from FP?" "Aren't you that weeb from FP?"[/QUOTE] I made the mistake of shortening my username here to just Frozt on bnet, and I keep getting asked if I play CS because there's some CSGO streamer or some shit named Frozt apparently lol.

[QUOTE=One Ear Ninja;50788241]hey are there discord rooms for specific heros? I want focused character discussion[/QUOTE] No, but are they really needed? The chat doesn't usually move so fast that you can't have a hero-specific discussion going.

That's one way to avoid being hit McCree. [video]https://youtu.be/5PmlDNaf0L0[/video] Also thanks for raping my video quality YT.

[QUOTE=ElectricSquid;50788299]No, but are they really needed? The chat doesn't usually move so fast that you can't have a hero-specific discussion going.[/QUOTE] i was talking about non fp discussion

I was playing a a quickplay game the other day, salty enemy was shittalking us in chat for our team having a Junkrat. Next round I [I]accidentally[/I] headshot him as McCree while he's zipping around as Tracer (i was just kinda taking potshots and accidentally landed one on his head) dude instantly disconnected from the match :v:

Does anyone else get this "Rendering Device Has Been Lost" crashing bullshit? I get it at least once a day or so, and I know my GPU is perfectly fine and not overheating. Drivers are also fresh and I'm running on a freshly installed Windows 10 OS. Overwatch is literally the only game that does this shit and I've run far more intense games perfectly fine than this.

Sure am glad some no life fag wants to DDoS the game so I can't play it.

Has Mei's Ice Projectile had its hitbox reduced loads? I was playing her last night and fucking hell, i kept missing their heads even though i swear i was VERY close.... I swear it never used to be this difficult to land a hit.

Aim for the chin.

[QUOTE=QUILTBAG;50782530][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/99we9rS.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] I threw up a little.

Went 44/4 as D.va in a round of Lijiang Tower Feels good man, especially considering i have like, 20 minutes of playtime with d.va

[QUOTE=Sift;50788180] Wait a second, looking at my replay where the hell was the hanzo I killed? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUwxnuFEbio[/media][/QUOTE] you can see his body on the right side of the screen when you swing and kill torb

Genji's make me rage so hard. They just appear out of nowhere and destroy my teleporter when i play Symmetra even though i hide it so well!

[url=https://giant.gfycat.com/HealthyShamefulDingo.webm]Mei got pretty fucked.[/url] (not mine)

The amount of times I have headshotted someone as mccree because they walk DIRECTLY INFRONT OF MY GUN by accident is insane.

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;50788535]All projectiles got their hitboxes reduced in size. [url=https://giant.gfycat.com/HealthyShamefulDingo.webm]Mei got pretty fucked.[/url] (not mine)[/QUOTE] This is why you don't use 50 sensitivity 4800 dpi

[QUOTE=Dick Slamfist;50786015]Zenyatta is rapidly becoming my favorite character in this whole game I actually find him calming to play which is incredible, like no joke the dude is so Zen and relaxed I actually feel chill playing the dude But also when you hear JUSTICE RAINS FROM ABOVE and then you activate your tranquility and suddenly Pharahs ult did Fuck all to your team Well that's just the kind of feeling you can't get anywhere else I've got MVP 4 times as Zenyatta. I can't tell if hes OP or if I've found my guy[/QUOTE] As long as you keep your healing orb on people and stay alive doing damage from the back Zen is by far the easiest character to get MVP with. My friend got 86% of the match on fire the very first time he played him, my record is 89.

Need to take a break until it's fixed. Like it constantly puts me on teams hundreds of levels below the enemy team. A team of level 20-30's are going to keep getting stomped and the game just isn't fun. Complaining a lot today but seriously fix your shit blizzard[/QUOTE] I feel matchmaking has been more broken than usual recently; sometimes in quick play I'll go against an obvious six stack of level 200+'s who completely stomp us, then another time I'll go against a team of the worst players the world has ever seen and stomp them. Games that are actually evenly matched are few and far between, which is a shame because those are always the most fun.

[QUOTE=Mellowbloom;50787662]I have been playing shooting games for close to a decade and my aim is still abysmal[/QUOTE] Lower your sensitivity, like a lot. Pro players play at around 800dpi and <10 in game. Go try that out and see how crazy low it is. I'm currently on 1800dpi and 6 in game, which is significantly lower than the 18 in game I used to play at, and I feel I've gotten a lot better. I've been gradually lowering it and I plan to keep doing so until I get to around what the pros use. then maybe i can get above lv52 again [editline]28th July 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=Teh Zip File;50788535]All projectiles got their hitboxes reduced in size. [url=https://giant.gfycat.com/HealthyShamefulDingo.webm]Mei got pretty fucked.[/url] (not mine)[/QUOTE] so this is why i missed a headshot on a frozen mcree at point blank range
