[QUOTE=The Calzone;50895705]I never understood the point of ARGs like this. Like, the solution to the ARG is that they're adding Sombra at some point. Boom. Just solved the ARG. Don't get the point of solving all of these puzzles just to learn "hey guys, there's a new hero. her name is sombra"
TF2 stopped doing ARGs like this a while back for similar reasons, the community just stopped bothering with them because as soon as it started the solution had been figured out. "The Pyro is getting an update." "MvM is coming out soon." "There's gonna be a steam sale with TF2 item tie-ins." You could figure all of that out from day 1 as soon as the ARGs started. No point.[/QUOTE]
"Other people have fun in ways I don't understand, why do they do it?"
Can the bastion short be released already, its such a dick tease with that teaser.
[QUOTE=Waffle Lord;50895715]I think jumping at the right moment prevents him from pinning you. Whenever a reindhart charges at me, I just jump and I go flying instead of being pinned.[/QUOTE]
This doesnt always work for me. I've run to the side and even jumped right before the Reinhardt was about to hit me and somehow I always get sucked back.
Is anyone else getting an update?

Some people really like solving puzzles for the sake of solving puzzles
[QUOTE=Wulfram;50895716]"Other people have fun in ways I don't understand, why do they do it?"[/QUOTE]
I don't see the fun in solving the puzzles when there's no distinct reward for doing so, no. We don't learn anything new about Sombra from the puzzles and she's not getting released any faster by the community solving them.
I just don't get the point of doing all this hard work to decrypt messages hidden in audio files and secret jpegs when the payoff is the video game equivalent of "Be Sure To Drink More Ovaltine"

The reward is solving the puzzle itself. Some people get a thrill out of that. :v:
ARGs are simply not for you. Calling them pointless it asinine.

How very Leoric of you, Blizzard
I'm ok with ARG being a week thing but when it drags over that, it's just "alright we get it".
Not super fan of those
Only one map? for 1 gamemode? I will be that guy, but well.. it look like we're going to get 4 maps per year at this point for each season.
The skins/Highlight intro/Spray better be good.

That's when we find out that ONLY Tracer, Lucio, Zarya, genji, get skins. The same ones that got it in summer games
Only them forever, everybody else just gets sprays

That's the problem with having 22 character and soon 23 - You can only makes one skin for each character.
While this wasn't a problem in tf2.
but in tf2 the community makes the content right now soo..
[QUOTE=Steel & Iron;50895591]Eichenwalde is supposedly on the PTR.[/QUOTE]
is this true?
[QUOTE=Scot;50895941]is this true?[/QUOTE]
No.
I'm really looking forward to the new map. Going to be nice having something else in rotation.
The map looks so peaceful. Good thing we are going to fuck it up with mindless violence.

They needed to do background downloading the day before just for this?
Do they always do this? I never noticed if they do.

Yeah but where's my "Updated Localization Files"?
Eichenwalde has already replaced Dorado as my favorite map visually.
I'm sombra

There's no distinct reward for playing Overwatch either other than having fun and enjoying yourself. ARGs are something some people enjoy doing, just because you don't enjoy them or don't get anything out of them doesn't mean they shouldn't exist.
New map looks really pretty, but I was kind of hoping it actually took place in the forest from the new short.
There's a severe lack of maps with any sort of wilderness in them.
[QUOTE=Sift;50896199]I'm sombra[/QUOTE]
That's just what Sombra would say.
I bet you're just Reaper in drag.
Anyone else is suffering from some "lag spikes" or something like that?
Game is literally unplayable for me right now.
I'm not using Megaupload or Dropbox in background.
Anyone knows a fix for this?
I just realized Roadhogs "Welcome to the Apocalypse" line is straight faced. Entire time I thought he was saying "Welcome to the Aporkaclypse."
Tracer x D.Va is my new ship
Both are highly mobile and when combined Tracer can deal massive point blank damage while completely protected by defense matrix
