[QUOTE=Pinut;50391588]So how many of you guys suck at the heroes you wanted to play but are good at the ones you weren't interested in that much?.[/QUOTE]
I really wanted to play D'va but absolutely suck as her.
[QUOTE=kilerabv;50389747]I just got play of the game with bastion just for walkin, setting up in a corner and killing a Pharah. Bonus points that our team lost.

The POTG system is super fucked, like why the fuck did a 76 get it for killing two people, when IN HIS POTG you can see me, on the other team, use my Zarya ult to COMPLETELY LOCK DOWN HIS TEAM AND GET A TRIPLE KILL IN THE PROCESS

Did we know what registers plays of the game? Since it's not kills I wonder what logs in the scores.
Honestly, the only character whose skins I like more than their original design is McCree.
I like a lot of the skins, but I don't see myself using most of them often. Just something I'd use to mix things up a bit.

I have no idea how POTG even works.
if it not by amount of kills then what? high damage or something?

Sometimes it prioritizes shutting down ults, too.
[QUOTE=Linkuya;50391762]Did we know what registers plays of the game? Since it's not kills I wonder what logs in the scores.[/QUOTE]
Pretty sure it is by amount of FIRE POINTS that you get, so 3 kills with 20 fire each will be overshadowed with 2 100fire kills.
And there's also stuff like SHUTDOWNs and LIFESAVERs.
I've really grown to like playing grandpa Reinhardt. You can get some crazy good moments if you learn to predict enemy movement and hit your Fire Strikes, learn when it's optimal to Charge and when it's time to Earthshatter.
And as I've said before, his personality and character is so god damn likable.
There are a couple of criteria, but Bastion and other high damaging ones seem to take priority due to the system being super fucked

It says "Shutdown" meaning the Pharah launched Barrage and Bastion killed her in the process.
Someone posted in the old thread a while back it's based on score you get from kills/abilities/healing. Killing someone at full health nets you 100 (or something along those lines) and finishing off people with low health gives you a score based on that. So if you kill 2 full health players and grab an assist that's like 250 points, but if you killed 3 low health players with an ult it's only 150, so the highest score gets the potg.
I didnt type it out word for word but that's what he basically said and so far I've been noticing it in game.

SHUTDOWN is probably like if someone initializes an ULTIMATE in front of many enemies, so the game thinks that this person is about to kill all those players and scores the fire points the enemy was about to get to the person that SHUTDOWN the ult.
LIFESAVER is probably just saving a person who was about to die who then makes some fire points as well, which are then scored to the player that saved the dude in some quantity.
It is also possible that there's a FIRE POINT multiplier that is higher at the end of the game or overtime for the defending team or something like that.
THIS IS ALL SPECULATION.

Even so, it still feels like bullshit, that I got POTG.

My favorite aspect of him is how he's so vocal in combat, it really makes him stand out (more than physically anyway).
It's unfortunate his actual gameplay impact is so underwhelming as soon as you want to do more than shielding allies, everything else in his kit (even his damage output and health) is essentially dependant on your enemie's lack of skill or knowledge of the game.
Why does D.Va not need to reload? Zarya has a [I]laser[/I] that needs to reload.

I dunno man his hammer's pretty strong to me. You can wade into a teamfight and kill most enemies in 2-3 swings, and each swing knocks them around disrupting their aim.

No way! His pinning is a great initiation tool, his ult a massive teamfight swing, and his projectile may be slow, but it packs a large punch. I love him. He can really slug it out when the shields are down.
[QUOTE=Masamune;50391845]Why does D.Va not need to reload? Zarya has a [I]laser[/I] that needs to reload.[/QUOTE]
Because Zarya can shoot big balls.

Yeah I've been speculating on if the firepoints played a role aswell
I know some dudes that reverse engineer games constantly and they'll probably look into the code and find out eventually.
Man fuck this input lag, it's unplayable
so what's the deal with zenyatta? his basic attacks are super weird and I can't figure out how exactly they work
[editline]25th May 2016[/editline]
oh nevermind
iirc someone researched it and it was apparently that the game is actively watching for spikes in activity to record a 20 or so second clip for POTG, so like in the clip if that pharah was doing really well and if she had gotten her ult she probably would have gotten the POTG. but because you killed her as she was about to ult the game saw that and went "this guy just made a huge play against that player" and then awarded POTG to you instead.
[QUOTE=Masamune;50391845]Why does D.Va not need to reload? Zarya has a [I]laser[/I] that needs to reload.[/QUOTE]
They probably decided to keep the cannons simple at some point and removed the reload at the cost of damage. I wish that wasn't the case since they feel so ridiculously lame to use.
When you get that perfect hook... you never go half hog. Felt good, man.

Kung fu movement followed by flying ball of doom.
I keep trying to reload as D.Va and keep getting confused why it never does.
