Overwatch - It's Actually a Trick To Make Everyone Play HotS, also BUY - Games

Yeah Mercy gets rez off him stupid fast too Hog just bloats the ult economy both ways

[QUOTE=Everything;52382771]Making the latest one meta-relevant first would be nice Sombra is only just now finding a good niche, and Orisa is way behind the curve[/QUOTE] Ana broke the meta when she came out after a small tweak after launch

Don't like the layout of the new map in the slightest.

[QUOTE=Everything;52382516]Also do tanks inherently require damage nullification? [B]I was under the impression that they're traditionally[/B] builds with an enormous health pool (or high defense, which is mechanically the same in most systems) who use it to draw aggro away from their allies. He effectively has almost a thousand HP (600 + 300 reserve), and certainly draws everyone's attention the moment he walks into frame.[/QUOTE]Hog isn't traditional. Every "tank" has a way to mitigate some form of damage. Dva has defense matrix, Orisa has fortify and barrier, rein has a barrier, winston has a barrier, zarya has bubbles. They all have large health pools and ways to help mitigate damage taken to themselves and the team in some way or another. Hog doesn't have any damage mitigation. You could say his healing mitigates damage done but then you realize it really doesn't help him unless he can fall back and it's solely for him. Hog was never a tank like the rest of them, he was a beefier dps with a OHK combo on cooldown. So if they make him less potent in the killing area, they should really help him out more in the survival area. Because as a tank, he doesn't do his job.

Because they tried once and the Ana mains got it reverted.

I think this was inevitable really. Too many heroes will just flat out never see serious play because Hog did their job better.

So nice of Blizzard to give us a FREE map for us to enjoy. I guess it's time for another event soon so Blizzard can recover money of the time spent creating more FREE content for us.

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;52383804]The Earth will crumble from the shitstorm of 202x when Blizzard releases the first Overwatch paid expansion[/QUOTE] The expansion is gonna be inside a Lootbox, legendary quality. You can only get that lootbox for $2.49 each.

I'm sure the announcement will be a new hero that is either OP as fuck or near useless.

got mako skin from the golden box when i already have sharkbait and prefer bajie anyway t-thanks jeff

[QUOTE=Furnost;52383853]got mako skin from the golden box when i already have sharkbait and prefer bajie anyway t-thanks jeff[/QUOTE] Why couldn't it just be "Free 1000 credits!" to [I]simply purchase the legendary you wanted[/I] instead of these RNG lootboxes? This shit is becoming indefensible.

Decided to play Junkrat for fun and like half my team got mad at me, said I was just throwing because we were losing. [video=youtube;z7RKI1tqjjQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7RKI1tqjjQ[/video] [sp]Those three were carrying the enemy team all the way up to that point, Ana/Bastion with Pharah air support. They never managed to properly regroup after that and we stopped the steamroll. No idea how I managed to hit Pharah though. I'll probably never get that lucky again.[/sp]

Is it just me or do Hanzo arrows do waaaaay too much damage? It feels like upwards of 150 damage per shot. I feel like the majority of times I die to a Hanzo it's to blindfire spam when I should have plenty of health, but I just fall over for having the gall to barely peak into a chokepoint. I am new to the game, though, so I could just be wrong.

I mean I think we can all agree scatter arrow is bullshit if nothing else

I'd rather give him a homing arrow than the scatter. I mean, he can do that in his and Genji's cinematic, after all. Not extreme homing, just a light curvature that tries to predict the target's movements for you at medium to long range. Really fast targets can still evade it, and if you know it's coming you can juke it out, so it's not unavoidable. [editline]t[/editline] His existing voice clips for scatter - "Simple geometry" "There is nowhere to hide" etc - would still make sense too.

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Py0RLbb.png[/IMG] All those idiots saying that they have gold in damage because they spammed at barriers are gone now

I like the new damage medal, but shooting barriers isn't useless.

This is a serious Junkrat nerf.

I don't get why they can't have barrier damage as a medal as well, it would only be fair.

I miss the soul orbs for Reaper.

[QUOTE=Zadrave;52384395]I don't get why they can't have barrier damage as a medal as well, it would only be fair.[/QUOTE] I don't get why we cant have a full blown scoreboard and do away with medals entirely.

[QUOTE=Oizen;52384414]I don't get why we cant have a full blown scoreboard and do away with medals entirely.[/QUOTE] because blizzard wants their competitive game to be friendly for some reason

Think Blizzard will ever release Lucio's album or do you think they've forgetten about it? [t]https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/content_folder_media/XIEBWGM29U2K1438053060119.jpg[/t]

[video]https://youtu.be/pmaAdAK04iA[/video] new mccree is pretty good

[QUOTE=Segab;52384347]I like the new damage medal, but shooting barriers isn't useless.[/QUOTE] Shooting at Zarya's barrier used to count on it too. And Mei's Ice Wall, which I've seen people shooting at it when it's not obstructing at all or when there's nothing happening just to boost their Damage meter. Orisa's barrier also counts here since it lasts so long even after you kill her.

Does anyone elses controls feel real fucking weird after this update?

[QUOTE=Overwatch 7;52384405]I miss the soul orbs for Reaper.[/QUOTE] Orbs were a huge part of my rhythms in teamfights, so I feel like I'm relearning my most-played hero :v:
