Overwatch - Scientists baffled by team's ability to fuck up every time

[QUOTE=Wulfram;50522201]Isn't there a law in China that games there HAVE to be developed by Chinese developers? Like even WoW in China is outsourced to a Chinese company so its legal to play. Maybe Blizz was going to do the same thing with OW but backed out and the Chinese company decided to just take the assets and release the game anyway.
I may be pulling this completely out of my ass[/QUOTE]
Sounds about right. Warframe China was basically handled by an entirely different team, so I suspect you are correct.
Keep it as 150, convert it all to armor, give him a passive where he can regenerate armor.
I'd rather Zenyatta just move faster, and maybe have some aerial mobility (bigger jumps or something, he hovers anyways).
He's a glass cannon support, he shouldn't last long. Especially since he'd be a monster if he could survive continuous fire; only reasons Zenyattas can't slaughter anyone they discord is because it goes away if they die and right now a straight fight [I]will[/I] kill the Zen.

I wonder if subliminally ya'll voting on that shit cause you want more tank players.

Fuck me if it doesn't look phenomenal, though. I do love me some Reinhardt.

That's the thing. ANYTHING will kill Zenyatta. I'm pretty sure that is the only reason he floats is because he will die if he accidentally trips.
You can't be much of a support when a stray bullet will kill you instantly. Heck don't even think of playing Zenyatta when the enemy team has a sniper. Which they ALWAYS do.
[QUOTE=Zeos;50521756]Hey Blizz? Can we get a couple new maps... please[/QUOTE]They confirmed new updates in the works for the duration of the summer, and not just buffs and tweaks
I think my new favorite skin is the Chrome skin for genji, imo it looks way better in-game than in the hero gallery, (plus I like the color white)

[QUOTE=Alxnotorious;50521606]Well, compare the dialogue to TF2. How do they compare?[/QUOTE]
That's not entirely fair. TF2 has had almost 10 years of updates.

Zenyatta can still support just fine; he can easily heal without showing himself, since his heal doesn't require him to be in range or line of sight.
Though Widowmakers are a bit of an issue; I was thinking maybe he could require his shields to go down before his health could take damage (i.e. if a shot does more damage than he has shields, it still won't hurt his health), so it'd always take a minimum of two hits to kill him.
I'm new to the game. Right now I'm only around level 10, but why do I keep getting matched up with people who are level 50+?

The writing has been consistently on-point since day one so it's perfectly fair.
Also writing isn't something that you have to learn on a per-IP basis. Blizzard isn't a fresh company or anything, they should know better.

Zenyatta is unique because he can actually do a lot of damage, but if you can't even pop your head out for 3 seconds to shoot a left click or put a discord orb down without exploding hes just not fun imo.
If you're going to heal without showing yourself and do nothing else, you should be playing Mercy.
Widowmaker nerf helps though I guess.

The matchmaking system is weird, to say the least. It's not like there's not enough players to go around.
I don't remember any dialogue with TF2 when I played for the first few years, just the ingame callouts (most of which was engi related chatter, need a dispenser here, sentry down, etc)
Didn't most of TF2's banter and in-game dialogue come out around the time of the Scout update?

Does it matchmake based on some invisible 'skill' level, or is it all supposedly based on your profile level?

There is no assistance to win or lose. This is misinformation.
We match based on skill, ping and group size.
The only thing we do is detect when one team has been repeatedly losing and is outmatched and then we disband those matches.[/QUOTE]
Basically your average stats. If your ping is weird, it'll try to match you with people of the same ping. And they try to match groups with groups of the same size.
Goddamn that skin seems to have infused me with the spirit of grandpa guy. Won three games in a row with him after getting it, he's such a crazy hero to play.

roadhog is just the sweetest honestly
I'm smitten with him and I don't know why, he seems so unintentionally endearing
Said it before, but from a design perspective him and Junkrat gotta be my favorite characters.

I feel like they have the most character out of anyone
Is it a common issue where the killcam is totally different than how you died? There will be times where I'll be accurate with my shots, but not hitting them for some reason, and then the killcam shows I'm shooting the ceiling or something.

Outside of that, dunno; lag or desync issue.

They play a lot especially when you kill/dominate enemies.

so after playing several matches after the patch, the widow maker nerf did jack shit. but mcree i think is in a good place now

Ya, but shooting straight up into the sky? It just seems weird to me if the server thinks I'm aiming that far off.

If you're looking at yourself from their perspective it could be a combination of lag/lag compensation and the way the player models look. Often the third-person animations kind of flub the aiming animations a bit so that it looks good, rather than showing you precisely where that person is looking.
I'm going to miss quickscoping with widow. Damage nerf was fine, but quick scoping made easy headshots.
Quickscoping was the worst nerf they could have done :*(.
I already bought the Valkyrie skin :cry:
