Overwatch - The world needs heroes, and Blizzard needs a TF2 game!

Hoping asking for keys isn't banned here. Can anyone help a friend out? Looking at trying this game out and I'd like to get installed sooner rather than the open beta launch rush.
tbh the one thing I'd like to see changed for Mei is her self heal. Other than that yes she is a major major pain in the ass but she's not that op once you get a good team who understands how to fight her.
[QUOTE=Kagu;50251992]Wasn't speaking to you in particular about the main comment but it seems to be a common trend.
People shouldn't argue that characters need to be re-balanced or removed because they literally only play 3 heroes.
There's a reason why it's a team game.
Work with your team, you shouldn't expect an easy win if you aren't willing to adapt to how the other team is playing.
Mei was pathetic when she was first released. If you've gotten close enough to be frozen like that; she deserves the kill I'd say.
I seriously don't see how Bastion is hard to kill; if you're in a high enough level bracket to be playing against a team comp and chemistry like that, there's a reason why you're there so start adjusting.
It's the same idea as people who are playing Support/Mercy for you guys. Do you think they always want to default as a Support because no one else wants to suck it up and play as Support?[/QUOTE]
Nah m8 Bastion is bullshit. He just needs a tweak to tone his DPS down. I mean there's not a single other character where if you turn a corner and you meet them, you're dead no options. Any other super burst characters have low HP so you have a chance of taking them out first, but not Bastion. His firerate is the problem I think.
A highground Bastion abusing a prop so that only a sliver of his model is visible is cancer.
Mei isn't that bad because she has no long range capabilities. Bastion can fire far as fuck with good accuracy so even Widowmaker is hard to counter him with.
Is 800x600 the lowest resolution availiable?
unless Bastion is getting shielded by a Reinhardt, you can snipe him with Widowmaker or hook him with Roadhog
had a great match where the attacking team was getting fed up with my flanking antics and eventually ended up with 3 reinharts and one or two mercies. They were all stupid as hell and fell into my whole disruption/distraction and kept chasing me away from the objective, I think this highlight was my favorite-
2 reins and a mercy spot me

they chased me down and pinned me between them til I died from the hammering, but I let off the special. [i]They kept hammering the mech as I watched from the ragdoll cam[/i]

mercy probably didn't know what was going on behind all that mass

You can also physically walk through Reinhardt's [B]ENEMY[/B] shield.
Also, Reinhardt's charge knocks him out of his turret stage, 3 fully charged arrows from Hanzo will kill, Genji reflect will output so much damage to Bastion if not outright killing him. No idea how many charged Widowmaker shots it takes.

or reflect with Genji. Most players just hold m1 so they die from a genji reflect as bastion turret mode.
Yeah that all sounds easy, dumb Bastions are easy to kill, so is anyone mediocre. The problem is an even somewhat good Bastion can just wipe an entire team. He can obliterate Reinhardt's shield without reloading by himself, and like I said, a highground Bastion with some distance between you is hell since hes accurate as fuck.
o wow this reminded me how bad i am in multiplayer games
Anybody not able to download overwatch. I had to uninstall it and now its taking forever, most of the time its not even downloading anything, it just says @ 0 B/s

Ha goodluck charging a bastion, i could kill a reinhardt before he even makes it 3 ft. Im not saying he is unkillable, its just annoying to face one ,something the casual playerbase wont appreciate.
Servers just shit themselves?
Edit: ah, patch.
Is it just me or does anyone find the capture points tags obscure your view too much when shooting into them. like the big red capture point A symbol goes infront of enemy players. Or just blend right in when you have the aim hacks activated from a widow maker that makes everyone red.
I notice it mostly when on longer range characters with no zoom like Hanzo , Soldier 76 and Pharah
Im going to go through all the options tomorrow when i wake up to see if i can make them less visible.
I think Mercy is the one I most want to play, then Pharah and Bastion. Guess I'll get that tomorrow.
Having to deal with Reinhardt when he is using his shield thing is really fun,makes you work with your team to get rid of him. Vise versa to that nothing makes you feel more badass than standing behind that shield and charging in.
It's a little repetitive (I've played every map multiple times and I've just started today), but it is a load of fun.
I can see me dropping money on this.
McCree, Mei, and Symmetra are my guys.
Man this game is really good
Balance is great as well, except MAYBE Widowmaker because they can fire so quickly while staying scoped in which is a bit ridiculous to me, but maybe thats just my Pharah main salt speaking.

In the words of the pros. Widowmaker is the most OP hero currently. Because the only counter to a good Widowmaker is an even better Widowmaker.
I feel like Bastion should have restricted turning while in turret mode, getting up next to him is such a huge chore but he can just whip around instantly and shred you. Either limit the speed that he can turn left/right or give him a fixed cone that he can't turn beyond when in turret mode.
Anyone need a 6th player? My id is PettankoNeko#1918
I'm pretty bad but I like playing Roadhog and Mercy.

Basically this

But with ONE guy.
it really feels like a kick in the dick when you play mercy and get a complete clutch 5 man revive to block the cart, only to have the play of the game be some fuckhead getting two kills with his ulti.
Well, I just went to pre-order the game, only to realise after the fact [B]you don't get an early access code if you buy the game.[/B]
What? Just, what? In what realm of logic does that make sense? I can't even pre-install it ahead of the open beta tomorrow.

The only way I'd be able to download it right now is if I got a beta key, which ironically I can't get despite buying the game

There was a cutoff date for early access preorders, buying it now doesn't get you a key.
I find myself playing a lot of Zenyatta. I rather like him but I can't help but feel it's mostly because people rarely go support. Also there is literally no reason for Mei's standard attack to fully freeze people. Slowdown maybe, but imo the freeze should be exclusive to her ult.

The play of the game really likes people getting kills with ults, or people killing someone using their ult.
best way to play diva?
any spare keys? Need it for a friend and then we can queue without a randy.

I like going all in sometimes hiding behind my passive and ult.
