Yes.
[sp]Depends on the hero you play and the hero they play[/sp]

I'm guessing not too spongy if you go bastion.
Got to play a few rounds when the beta opened and had a blast, despite my network being a pain. Unfortunately because of my network I can't play the mobile heroes I'd like to (ie; Tracer), but I have found that I'm not bad with Zenyatta. I love his buff/debuff mechanic and he actually hits worth a damn.
Went from 0 kills playing Tracer to almost immediately racking up 8 kills with Zenyatta. :v:
Holy shit mei is fun.
I mean she can really do damage.
Definitley gonna be my main.
And I thought I would like symmetra, but she is boring.
Playing the game and watching videos is so different.

For comparison with TF2, there were moments where I died faster than a Scout with 100hp getting mowed down by a Heavy at mid range, and others where I felt like a Heavy with 2 Quickfix Medics on me. It really depends.
Somehow got 5 play of games in a row with Junkrat.
This game is too fun
[QUOTE=Takuat;50248304]Just wait till the open beta, itll be 100x worse[/QUOTE]
yeah probably needed clarify post launch of the game sorry.
It's quite painful to play in half the matches right now otherwise its fun.
Yeah Junkrat is really fun. It's satisfying to just blow the fuck out of the enemy hero you just trapped, and puling off a Riptire team wipe.

It feels like 2007 again tbh. I'm having too much fun with this game.
Roadhog is fun too.
And the hooks are so easy.

Until the enemy Reinhardt goes in for the blueballin' shield cockblock
Roadhog and Junkrat are quickly becoming my main favs. It's unfortunate that both have major issues at mid-long ranges, though.
Hog is this weird kind of tank with horrible tanking ability, but he's excellent at fucking everything up when it's in tight and strangling cocky loners. And Junkrat is just a more-balanced Demoman 2.0, and the laughs give me fuel.
I'm really enjoying d.va for some reason.
She's like a Heavy that can fly.
Man I really love Zenyatta's design and role but I suck at playing him so much. He's so squishy and there's no mobility, I find myself dying to lone flankers all the time. I'm not sure if it's my fault for not being able to aim or if it's my team's fault for not watching flanks better or what.
some of the damage for snipers is silly, hanzo one shotted me as mercy in the foot from full health :/
I really love the small details like how each of junkrat's bombs have a different ticking noise, he tosses the detonator after using it as an actual prop, roadhog's healing canister falls on the ground after use. There's tons of small details like that.

Junkrat's launcher flap slowly opens the longer your airborne.
There's a ton of little details in every character and its' amazing.
Damn, I get like only 4-5 kill streaks with most heroes, but as soon as I take Tracer it gets up to 20+ :v:
it also helps that Scout was one of my best classes from TF2:cool:
There's a shitty feeling when you're hardcore carrying as a class, and then the commendation screen pops up with another player playing the same class who gets drowned in commendations despite having not done much of anything. v:v:v
Blegh I am doing so much worse now than I was during the stress test.
I'm not sure how to fell when I'm featured as the play of the game and it's literally just a standard 3 kill streak.
I'm wanna get my mates together to try this out in the open beta but I've read some very worrying things about Aus servers... apparently there's not many of them, and if you can't get one it dumps you in a US server??
Can anyone confirm? I don't wanna hype this shit only for it to be a lag-fest.
How does Genji reload on his non-robot skin
That feeling of dread when you just had a pretty bad round and you're scared of getting an embarassing play of the game :vs:
Half of the play of the games wind up being Junkrat triple-kill Riptires.
[QUOTE=Zeos;50249153]How does Genji reload on his non-robot skin[/QUOTE]
Similar to normal Genji. Human Genji also has that wrist-cuff thing that dispenses Shurikens into his hand.
I literally had a Livesaver play of the game as Symmetra where I shielded two people before I got charged by Reinhardt and turned into deadmetra
Anyone happen to have one of those buddy keys that lets people play right now as opposed to Thursday?
I will say that, yeah, if you have a mediocre team, Bastion can't lose
Holy shit this is so much more fun than I expected
D.Va best hero
