[QUOTE=snijboer;50863024]Okay, so i had a genji slashing with his ult like 3 meters away from me and killed me. i am reinhardt using a huge hammer that is way longer and bigger than genji's sword. But no, i am really sure i had moments i hit them with the hammer, 100%. But it doesn't regist as a hit. Whats going on here? Anyone else get this same issue as well? It really frustrates me.[/QUOTE] Genji's sword has the same range as Reinhardt's hammer so it's probably just lag compensation shenanigans.
Had a round on Gibralter where 5 of the enemy were roadhog. They were able to push pretty quickly through the first couple payload checkpoints, but then I decided to go widowmaker. It became hog hunting season. One of the few times I would suggest to a guy with mediocre aim go sniper.

[QUOTE=Cloak Raider;50859368]doesn't soldier 76 have exactly the same winrate as mccree on masteroverwatch in competitive scrap that, he actually has a .5 higher winrate[/QUOTE] That's a sample of the entire playerbase, and most players are bad at the game and therefore irrelevant to this discussion. The average accuracy for 76 on masteroverwatch is 35.3%, for the nerf to affect you you have to be able to aim anyways. [QUOTE=Cloak Raider;50859436]torb and sym aren't the second most played character in the game if you nerf mccree to reduce his damage output (with range or raw damage numbers), then soldier 76 replaces him, because that's exactly what fucking happened when he was nerfed - this was a problem in the closed beta and has not changed, when you have two characters that fit the same role, it's extremely difficult to get them in parity how about instead of swapping the fotm mid-range dps, they fix the fact that defence heroes are critically underplayed and have been since the game has been released - or the fact that the support meta is the most stagnant that it has [I]EVER[/I]​ been, despite the inclusion of a new support hero.[/QUOTE] 76 had good long range sustained, McCree has high close and mid range burst. They have distinct roles. If there's too much overlap all they have to do is lower 76's base damage but adjust his falloff. Decreasing his range so there's actually more overlap is insane.

I feel like they should bring back the no spread to Soldier's first couple shots but make it the first 3 instead of 5

[QUOTE=Jetpack Bear;50863297]I feel like they should bring back the no spread to Soldier's first couple shots but make it the first 3 instead of 5[/QUOTE] Decreasing his range just makes the overlap with McCree worse and makes them impossible to balance McCree's buff-nerf that moved him more to close range is exactly what they needed to do, 76 could get something similar to give him a more distinct effective range
I'm going to loose my mind as I cannot get that new Dva skin for the life of me, and nearly every Dva I've seen these last few weeks have it.
[QUOTE=EuSKalduna;50863258] Also had the best save as a junkrat of all time[/QUOTE] I got heal-blocked and charged by a Reinhardt, Kalduna hit a concussion mine that launched me and the Rein into the air, preventing him from crushing me against any wall.
[QUOTE=FiveEyes;50863408]I'm going to loose my mind as I cannot get that new Dva skin for the life of me, and nearly every Dva I've seen these last few weeks have it.[/QUOTE] I'd trade you if this game allowed it.
Finally got a legendary skin from a box! Not a Summer Games skin though. Still none of those.
I really wish this game had trading just so I could give dupes to friend but I don't want a zenn-conomy update
I'd much rather deal with unboxing duplicates than for them to go that route.
Launching yourself into the air and getting a headshot as widow is amazing I've been finding out. It's also a really good way to deal with another widow because they usually don't expect it. And if you're really lucky/good you can kill like a mercy behind a reinhardt. Also for the olympic items, it guarantees one per box. But I really wish it'd guarantee one non-duplicate per box. I've gotten the same olympic zarya skin 3 fucking times it's not even a good skin I want my lucio ones :(

Had my first run of competitive play tonight with some FP'ers, everyone was super nice and patient with me even tho it was my first time. Thank you guys
I have the Widow Olympic skin. It's my only Olympic skin so far and I've not even played Widow for a second.
The Tf2 economy pretty much made me glad that there is no trading at all in OW. I never want to experience that shit again.
Valve's heavy shift into microtransactions and taking fees in between players selling between each other instead of bringing more quality gameplay content or video games in general is what ultimately made me lose faith with Valve. I enjoy having the random cosmetics and I hope that the cosmetic system in Overwatch remains the same for a long time, and that they DON'T become Blizzard's primary focus to get Lootbox sales for every update and instead bring new heroes, maps and potentially modes too.
[QUOTE=Oizen;50863851]The Tf2 economy pretty much made me glad that there is no trading at all in OW. I never want to experience that shit again.[/QUOTE] It doesn't have to be like TF2 though, just allow people to trade skins for skins and such. Keep shit like currency trading and gambling out.
If they REALLY wanted to do trading. Keep it to just 1:1 of similar rarity. So you can only trade a legendary for a legendary.
I've learned there are some joys to spectating [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/263844100819536937/4C1BB959F3970D7D6E5122ECCBDFC10100A9FF6B/[/t]
90% on 2nd KoTH round with no enemies in sight "server has been lost". Then we get dumped on Route 66 and get fucking stomped. Thanks
I do wish roadhog's hook needed more precision though. I just got hooked through a wall after I had gotten 5 feet behind it to the left of a doorway

Has blizz even commented on the state of genji yet?
pardon me not being in the loop, but what's this whole thing with Sombra? what indicates she'll have any stealth abilities? [QUOTE=redBadger;50864304]Has blizz even commented on the state of genji yet?[/QUOTE] regarding?
[QUOTE=w0lfeh;50864397]pardon me not being in the loop, but what's this whole thing with Sombra? what indicates she'll have any stealth abilities? regarding?[/QUOTE] Probably his dominance in the current meta.
[QUOTE=w0lfeh;50864397]pardon me not being in the loop, but what's this whole thing with Sombra? what indicates she'll have any stealth abilities? regarding?[/QUOTE] Player concerns. A lot of people have been complaining on various sites and blizz forums. I'd figured they would have made a comment.
