[QUOTE=cyanidem;50824307]I love playing Genji, im pretty good, save my teams ass a lot of the time. Yet I get treated like shit for it.[/QUOTE] It's because of people like the Genji main I saw yesterday, who couldn't even deal with the lone bastion sitting out in the open, let alone actually kill another player in a decent fight.

[QUOTE]Developer comments: While we love the way that Bastion can turn the tide of battle, the hero felt too powerful against less experienced players and too weak against more experienced players. The goal of these changes is to make Bastion more viable at all skill levels, as well as provide more flexibility in how the hero can be played and supported by a team.

[QUOTE=Banned?;50824086]Our Genji: rank 72, drooling retard, doesn't get even half as many ultimates off as Their Genji: rank 64, literally Seagull, never not has ultimate for a teamfight, getting pocketed by Zarya, kills the entire team every time I cannot fucking wait until Genji gets nerfed, I'm so fucking tired of my games being decided by the Genji player on the other team.[/QUOTE] His ult lasts way way too long. So many times I've been walking back towards the fight after dying, hear a genji ult, finally get there and wtf he's still fucking ulting and kills me instantly seriously even I have wiped an entire team using genji's ult and i've played him like five times before [QUOTE=Kiamberm;50824281]Sounds like you just got out-played. Don't be such a sore loser. If someone dominates the hell out of you with Genji, they earned it. He's not some broken OP hero like McCree has been at times, where anyone with half-decent aim could just pick him and wreck face. It takes practice and reasonably high-level play/team cooperation to do really well as Genji. You simply got outplayed and if your reaction to that is to cry "NERF!" then what you're really asking for is a game that coddles your feelings and ego and lowers its skill ceiling to make you feel better than you are.[/QUOTE] I'm sorry but this is a load of bullshit. The reason Genji is overpowered is he has the best mobility of any hero, the most escapes plus insane DPS using the M2+melee+dash combo. Any fight he can win he usually does, any fight he cant he runs away from. That and his ult is pretty much the only one capable of wiping out an entire team consistently.

[QUOTE=E.C.S;50824249]As a Symmetra player this is mostly true. If there is a flanker chances are as soon you stop paying attention to your teleporter it will be destroyed. That is why I save it until someone dies and hopefully I'm not that person. Her sentries only work as an alarm or caught someone with low health in a spot with a health pack. Her left click is good when an enemy is focusing in something else, if they focus on you better be ready to someone finish the enemy. Her right click is useful against Reinhardt or someone behind his shield. It's slow but a well placed ball would leave someone vulnerable to get killed. While 25 of shield doesn't seem much, being able to recover it helps in dire situations when you are low on health. She works, yeah, but as long the enemy team doesn't realize you can get easily destroyed by using someone like Winston (Which I rarely see), you will be fine... Or just can be lucky like one of my friend that only used Symmetra twice and got the cute spray by teleporting 20 players, which I can't manage to get.[/QUOTE] She should get a proper ult and make her tele one of her abilities. The shield giving seems like a major cop out on an ability and can be something she could easily have as something her m1 does. Maybe nerf the tele slightly to balance it out but either way make it something that as long as it's up the other team isn't getting into wherever it is they aren't capping the point. Give an extra job for flankers and mobile classes to make the tele a priority.

[QUOTE=Ryu-Gi;50824264]Forgot to mention, when Tracer recalls using her Track and Field outfit, she says "False start".[/QUOTE] I just noticed today that if you're playing Zen and kill an ulting Pharah he has a special line. Something about justice.

Ew, just reread the statement on the fan response to summer content. He specifically uses language about 'giving' us Ana for free in a way. Uh, one of the major selling points, and something [I]you guys[/I] made a huge deal out of was that the game was going to get free maps and heroes regardless, yeah I'm thankful that they did, but fuck, don't hold it over us as an excuse or a counterpoint for being scummy later

When Zenyatta kills Pharah or McCree, he says "Justice is defined by the hand that holds it." When he kills 76 or Reaper he says "Revenge is not justice."

With no strings attached?

[QUOTE=Steel & Iron;50824438]When Zenyatta kills Pharah or McCree, he says "Justice is defined by the hand that holds it." When he kills 76 or Reaper he says "Revenge is not justice."[/QUOTE] Sometimes when he kills Reaper he says "Hatred is not a strategy."

If Blizzard removes animation canceling like they mentioned a while back, that would solve your "insane dps" problem. I'll agree his Ult duration could also be shortened by a second or 2. Any other needed nerfs come to mind?

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50824458]Reminds me of Killing Floor 2. "FREE CONTENT PACK!" No you assholes, you're just updating your early access game.[/QUOTE] They said a fuckload of times why they used that wording, whenever they called them updates, a lot of people who weren't familiar with the game would go "wow fuck you assholes dis shit shud be free". To this day I still don't understand why a fucking name is such a big issue.

Had an odd moment today waiting in an attack spawn room as Hanzo. As I waited at the door I encountered a Genji. We both emoted to each other at the exact same time and then said "greetings" at the exact same time. We then went on to reck shit together. It was beautiful.

Regardless of being the highest skill cap hero in the game, he has the most insane mobility in the game and the strongest ultimate. More so than any other hero in the game, when Genji ulties your entire team needs to drop everything they're doing and spend the next six seconds dealing with him, if they even can. Multiple defensive ultimates need to be used to minimize damage. No other single hero in the game needs that kind of dedication. That's even if he doesn't get a pick or two, which is pretty much gauranteed. Because his dash resets on kill/assist, Genji is going to pop ultie, dash at healer, slash, kill, and then continue to dash and slash until the team is dead or he just wants to leave. When you're playing against good Genji's, you don't determine when they die. McCree is dealable. Even when he was pocket sniping I thought he was dealable. Hell, I think Tracer is dealable and I've played against some pretty fucking good ones. If Genji wasn't in the game she would be the most powerful DPS and that would be OK because you can force mistakes out of even good Tracer players. Good Genji players will make the match their own and you have no say in it. Let's not even begin to talk about if he gets an Ana ultimate too.

Was the bug where Reinhardt's attack is slower at low ping ever fixed?

This seasonal event thing is just shit. It's a new brawl, and some skins. I think the biggest kick in the teeth is that they specifically removed the use of currency to purposefully put us further at the mercy of the loot box RNG; in the same post he says it's because they want to make them "more exclusive," which is an incredibly poor excuse. This is a whale hunting update, and it's super shitty because some of the skins are cool and I'd like to earn them, but instead I have to make a significant time investment to earn a box, open it and get items I could have earned any other time, or multiple dupes of an item I already have. The only reason I even bought any was because I had a spare £15 lying around. I seriously hope they reconsider in the future, if the other events are going to be like this it's hard to muster much excitement for them.

Anyone having trouble staying connected to the servers? I keep getting dropped.

If you say Winston, you're wrong because he only has about a two foot circle protection and he cannot kill Genji before Genji kills everyone else. If you say McCree, your wrong because he can deflect flashbang and just leave. If you say Zenyatta, you're kind of right but you also just blew a critical ultimate to stop one character and, if the enemy team knows what is up, you're all gathered around one guy with the biggest counter ultimate in the game now on cooldown which doesn't make for an ideal situation. If you say Symmetra, you're wrong because he can just leave her behind. If I'm missing someone here I can tell you why they're not good enough to stop Genji.

[QUOTE]Sometimes we want to give everything to everybody. For example, a few weeks ago we gave everyone a new hero -- Ana. Ana came with skins, emotes, sprays, highlight intros etc. that could all be purchased with credits. [/QUOTE] Aren't we SO glad that Blizzard was kind enough to let us have Ana for free and be able to purchase her stuff with in game credits? :v:

[QUOTE=Scot;50824537]"this update is total bullshit and i disagree with their business practices but I gave them £15 anyway" Not having a go, just vote with your wallet and what not[/QUOTE] I mean in the most literal sense I had £15 lying about, I didn't even do anything to earn it tbh. Even so, I highly doubt that my £15 is going to do much of anything. Unless there's a sudden, organized effort to avoid giving blizzard money that I don't know about.
