No.

Post some porn/gremlin D.Va already.

cancer

OK.

Bumplock when?

DELETE TURBONIGGER

LITERALLY NO PART OF HIS KIT IS EVEN REMOTELY ACCEPTABLE AND HE MUST BE DELETED FROM THE GAME IN ENTIRETY IMMEDIATELY.


EDIT:
Shortened text.

You main support or sniper don't you

Your game is bad, and you should feel bad.

Your bans. Enjoy them.

Do you feel in control?

i honestly wouldnt mind if genji were just gone one day. deflect is such a ridiculous skill to have with the rest of his kit.


when will there be gremlin dva porn anyways?

Of corshe

...

No I main literally any hero other than Genji

There is currently not a single hero in the entire game that counters him

If they have any projectiles whatsoever theyll get reflected. If not he'll just run from them

The only one with any kind of a chance is Symmetra and then you have to carry a Symmetra

These are big dubs.

Symmetra can carry herself

Oh, well, fuck. I forgot my downvote. I guess I am the shitty redditor who plays bad video games because I'm susceptible to marketing now.

Zarya/Winston/Reinhardt's primary attacks can't be reflected. A Genji that can't stand on the objective suffers the same problem as a sniper that can't contest the objective.

No, it's also the:

1: Fact that his damaging dash that can also be used for mobility resets on kill or assist
2: Right click that allows any retard to dps any target by just turning his entire screen into one giant hitbox
3: Ult that takes everything cancerous about Reinhardt's 720 degree hitbox and Turnboniggers it

In addition to Deflect.

DELETE TURBONIGGER

You're in bronze right? The only reason I want Genji gone is because he's a useless cunt that instantly dies and never does anything useful. He can't kill anyone.

youre a sandwich

Hi where are da menes

...

Wow I didn't expect this kind of massive delusion.

...

Stop acknowledging the presence of shitposters.


You gotta CHILL out, user. Or at least take a Breather.

Ggod I hate bastions but at least this guy swapped eventually

Winston
Rein
Dva
Zarya
Pharah
Mcree
Pooloo

Are you perhaps new and playing bastion?

Being able to stop shooting for a second counters Genji. And I guess also having the appropriate mouse sensitivity so you can turn around.

Literally all that is needed.

I'm trying, but they keep making Overwatch threads.

I like killing him with melee

is that a picture of you, user?

roadhog is an alright deterrent but not much of an actual counter. at best youll get him to blow his deflect and your team might clean his clock if they arent brain dead. he disrupts genjis ult pretty handily though. with wholehog even if he tries to deflect it you can aim away and waste his time, and if you hook him hes as dead as ever unless hes juiced

Overwatch threads are like being on Tumblr.
They filter anything and anyone that shits on them and their shit taste, label them shitposters, and then prooced to bitch about their favourite piece of shit till the next big shitty skinnerbox timesink comes out.

Goddamn these threads are cancerous

Ive seen cuckchan /vg/ Pokemon threads more clean of faggotry than these fucking threads.

Bitch please. Hook shoot melee and he is dead 90% of the time.

Oh yeah, and because the Mark bought the shit game to play with his normalfag friends hes going to ban anyone that even attempts to "derail"

...

Haha. Yeah. Feel free to save it, my friend.

it would be great if all the 14 year olds that play the game died

Drop dead already

no no, your observation is spot on, but otherwise what is great about them is they bitch constantly how shitty and flawed the game is but they don't shut the fuck up about it and vehemently defend it against any dissent.


when's you birthday little boy

you could say that about anyone in the game, but you know hes far from a god.
getting genji to blow deflect on the hook is great, but pig himself has nothing to follow up with then, at the best he might get in some babby damage with right clicks but if he doesnt get assistance youre just feeding ult

What did I just say about shooting into his deflect? Don't do it.

And yes Genji flips around so much you can wait until his back is turned or he blows deflect on something else.

Today

happy 15th

Thanks, my birthday gift was an Overwatch copy

I'm not surprised

what fairytale land are you from where genji passes up the opportunity to gain ult charge off of a huge target like roadhog?

It's a good game

Whoa, bro. Sick. Did you know one of the girls in it is a gamer? She likes Doritos and MTN DEW!

Shit bro, is she hot?

The fairytale land where Roadhog doesn't run around by himself and stays on the point/in the push like he should be doing. Hell even if he is by himself, Roadhog can tell him to fuck off with his right click. And even if Genji gets ult that just means its party time for Roadhog because Genji will be flipping out and easy to hook.

Roadhog, just hook the flippy faggot out of the air and shoot him while he's still stunned.

ah, wow, high level discussion.

Always melee after the shot to ensure the kill. Placement after hook is pretty fucked.

well, if the team is paying attention then its totally fine if genji uses deflect on the hook since hell get shot in the dick with impunity.

Its funny how theres a bunch of shitposts before school starts and then they magically disappear during school and then show up again after its done.

Purely coincidence though right guys?

Oh yeah, always. I hook, wait a second for the hook to kick in, instant left click and almost instantly hit my quick melee button. Kills all day.

Already told you twice not to shoot the deflect. You must be impaired mentally.

Ive barely been posting these few days since Ive been going to the beach.
Temps have gone down though, so you can expect plenty of me in the next few threads.
Truly this game is blessed

You can just hold M1 while the target is being hooked and it will do the same thing.

yeah, I'm looking forward to overwatch threads disappearing once school starts.

I'm playing on PC but I have to use a controller because my hand is fucked up. Somehow I've managed to rank Gold, I have no fucking idea how, I don't deserve this.

Any general controller tips? Or tips for dealing with Mei now that she's even fatter?

I heard people bitching about Blizzard trying to pass reference to gremlin Dva in game but I can't find the thing that everyone was bitching about.

Bro, she's, like, Chinese or some shit. They're the best chicks to pork.

the game is designed to be played by retards of all kinds, as you can see

Enjoy learning long division when you get to school.

oh, you don't know? sage doesn't bump threads. How can you hit a bumplock then?

is there some way to cancel the hook? its a telegraphed attack that gives genji plenty of time to activate deflect before it even launches
or are you suggesting that the genjis im whining about use deflect preemptively against roadhog? that is not whats going on.

Gold is like the mariana trench. They just call it something nice to make you feel like you're not retarded.

Here's a true ranking system, from bronze to Grandmaster.

How many times do I need to repeat what I've already covered until you understand it? No wonder you're bronze.

I hope Sombra isnt shitty looking
Because the next champ after her is probably going to be a robutt or a male so cant fap to that

They really should adjust the rankings to better suit what rank you truly are, but make the amount of points you lose less

That's just it though. The shitposters always talk about how they only get called shitposters because they don't like the game and yet ignore the fact that the community also complains about the game (which is no different to any game community ever).

Difference is that the people who actually play the game are going to have more valid criticisms and the shitposters don't get that they are getting called shitposters because more often than not their complaints are retarded (or they haven't actually explained what their problem with the game is and are just calling people faggots) and can't hold an argument to save themselves when called out on this. Which is natural because you can't expect someone who doesn't play the game to have an informed opinion about it.

I feel this system is nicer than last season
Despite it kinda being the same

but you havent actually provided a counter argument. how do you hook genji that is prepared to use his deflect? you arent doing anything to him without hook or your ult.

So you've already forgotten my counter arguments. Wow. Read the thread then.

its like im talking to a snail

Dont fucking hook him, act like you're going to hook him or flank him from the side, behind. Genji's hitbox for deflect is massive in the front but doesnt work from the back, side angle. Thats all you have to do. Play mind games with him or flank him.

Read
the
thread

Just wait for Genji to pop deflect. The hook isn't actually telegraphed all that much. Usually once a Genji player sees you looking at them they might deflect after a second or so in anticipation of your hook. After those two seconds are up and they haven't run away is when you hook them.

Already told him, he just ignores it.

why is he facing away from you?
what mind games are you supposed to play with him when the only thing intimidating about roadhog is the hook?
flank him? roadhog has the loudest most distinct footsteps in the game, you arent sneaking up on anyone with a brain.

there is no reason to do that, theres a very obvious animation and sound for the hook not to mention its a projectile, although it is rather fast.

all these arguments assume the genji has only just picked the game up

they arent even bashing the game any more though. theyre just having their own side conversation while they wait for the bus

Can I just mention how deceptively nice zarya's ass is? I mean I guess I hadn't seen it before because I only started playing her after getting her artic skin to avoid the tumblr hair, but now that i've got the weightlifter skin it just looks so pleasant. I'm enchanted by it.

gg ez

you gotta admit the post ban sperg outs are always amusing

You're still overestimating how much the hook is telegraphed on top of underestimating the scrap ball's damage. The scrap ball deals the same fatal damage as the primary does when it explodes. Even if you're not hooking Genji you're outdamaging him. If you're with your team and not alone Genji will eventually have to deflect something which opens him up to your hook. Not even the Genji players at tournaments consistently predict the hook.

Roadhog vs. Genji

Roadhog shoots once
Genji pops deflect
Roadhog waits
Deflect ends
Roadhog hooks
Roadhog shoots
Roadhog wins

Now, there are alot of different things that could affect this outcome, like the skill of the players and such.

A good Genji player can run circles around Roadhog, but a good Roadhog will know how to counter that.
The Genji could also run away and such.

In general a Genji would loose against a Roadhog.

The sitting emote with Gamer Fuel®?

Like what though?

We get a lot of bitching about hitboxes, despite OW's being better than TF2's ever was.

We get complaints about trickrates, which was valid but has since been improved.

And those are just the ones I even remotely agree with. Then you get shit like "Q to win" which just says to me "I don't understand how this game works". Or "infinite ammo" which just says "I've never noticed how little ammo conservation has mattered in shooters before".

The complaints that actually fucking count is shit like lack of support for custom maps or custom servers and let I've never seen the people who sagebomb these threads bring those up.

im positive they are way better roadhogs than i am, but those situations they tend to have the luxury of teammates who do what they can to inconvenience the genji as well. and thats really what it takes, multiple people who are aware that there is a genji flipping around and are unwilling to let him have his way.
but, the conversation started out as 'what hero can counter genji' which im assuming means without relying on secondary forces.

Bans?

What the fuck is wrong with her face?

she's high

dude

She wants to die.

CIA?

I hope the ausfags wake up soon and teach you a thing or two about timezones.

Apparently you know nothing about shit posting or Australia
Its 11pm here and using downvote herb while being dumb isnt shitposting its just being dumb

Dont lump me in with your pathetic attempt

bump

After the last comic I had this image in mind…

bump

Ok but what if he waits for your hook, then what genius?

Character designs are god tier. That's all the game has going for it. It's lasted this long by having the same design philosophy that went into Street Fighter II and by proxy Darkstalkers.

Then he is dead.

id like to hear more about that

Care to explain how he's dead without a hook?

...

...

You could have just said it was designed by unimaginative old people in a massive board room.

...

The ultimates are also a bit like Street Fighter's Supers/Ultras. Especially with the idea that you have to find the right opening to use them or else they'll be wasted.

The game also does the whole "all the levels are from around the world showing off their different respective cultures, look we even went as far as to put the location's national flag in the loading screen".

McRee Shits all over Genji, if you throw your flashbang near him, but not directly at him you can stun him without him deflecting, then you click on his head. In general the idea of 1v1'ng Genji is a bit silly since he's designed as an assassin that's decent at 1v1'ng squishies.

weed

I'm a sucker for class-based team games, but after getting burned out on TF2 and mobas' stupid bullshit I'm looking forward to playing this when I get a computer that can run it (i.e. not a laptop).

This game has only one goal for all its missions: Stay on the point.
Why is that so hard for 90% of the people I play with to understand?

I try to stay on the point as much as I can myself user.

There is the opposite to that goal as well.

I.E. keep the other team off the fucking point.

My point is that this game, for better or for worse, is doing as well as it is through how charming it is. Every single character is fanart fuel in some way, all of them easily identifiable and possibly also follow the "recognizable as a silhouette" rule.

You and I may not like the game, but why it's doing so well does make a lot of sense.

thanks Mark

If your benchmark is TF2 prepare to be disappointed by overwatch.

Yeah I wouldnt disagree with that.

Many games that were designed by marketeers in board rooms to appeal to the mainstream market (IE the lowest common denominator) have achieved massive commercial success.

This is always what I compared them to, instead of the obvious ASSFAGGOT comparison, because of how they affect mindgames. In those games Ults are on cooldown with a mana requirement, so you always assume that someone has their ult when you go into a fight. With this system you don't really have to assume that, you just have to get a feel for when someone hasn't used ult in a while.


In high level games players usually win a fight, and have one guy sit on point while the rest spawncamp, with the reasoning that if the fight takes place on point then the defending team stalls progress, and even if your team loses the fight they should be respawning by the time the enemies come to contest.


They definitely follow that, which is why wallhack abilities like Hanzo's sonic arrow and Widow's ult work, despite only showing silhouettes you can tell who is where.

So uh
Can I heal in this game? Like super paladin levels of heal and heretic banishment?

And what better way than forming up on the point and gunning down anything that gets close?

You mean killing and healing? Play Zenyatta or Ana. They can deal with lots of aggressors decently by themselves and support their team. Ana's healing is heavily skill based though. Tanking and healing sadly isn't a thing in this game except for self heals. Lucio is a bard type character with a huge healing and speed aura. Mercy is kinda like the TF2 medic.

With "easily counter Genji", you mean either hopefully win a game of chicken against him or catch him being in an enclosed space with doorways not tall enough for him to climb out of for no reason.

All healers except for Mercy can also shit out some decent damage.
Zenyatta can pick a target to take 80% (I think) more damage which melts tanks an puts squishy characters in one shot range of some characters, and puts an orb on allies that heals them.
Lucio just has a passive healing aura so you can focus on shooting shit while you get a gold medal in healing.
Ana has a sniper that heals teammates when you shoot them and deals respectable damage to enemies, and a grenade that heals allies and hurts enemies, while preventing enemies from receiving heals.

It's literally a matter of hold left click and look at him to win.
Are you retarded?

Either he chickens out with a dash, you chicken out and ice yourself in from the damage or one of you dies.

literally why

I liked TF2's basic gameplay up until the very end. I didn't like the compulsion to buy every new weapon that came out combined with Valve being expert at throwing babies out with bathwater on a regular basis between that and Dota.

Also the Engineer equivalents being expected to fight alongside their turrets is a big plus. I hated playing against engineer and I hated playing as it even more. That class is half the reason ubercharge even needed to exist in the first place. Even helden sterben nicht seems like a less band-aid balance thing.

Zen's debuff amplifies damage by 30%.


Genji is super predictable during his double jumping animation. A good mcree will usually just click genji to death if genji doesn't sneak up on mcree. Which in turn leads to the waiting game which is flashbang vs deflect.
Honestly, Genji is now super easy to deal with as long as you pick Winston or Zarya. He can't kill them unless they fuck up hard and they easily 1v1 him or at least force him away from their squishy teammates. Back when triple jumping was a thing, he was harder to deal with, but since blizz hates fun and creative flanking routes, they cut his tendons. If you can't hit genji during his falling animation post double jump or wallclimb, consider gitting gud.

The whole point of the game is to waste the other team time. doesn't matter if it's killing them, letting them focus on you for a possible kill thus pull their focus away from the others/point, or blocking their access to the point(think Mei).

it's all good and viable regardless of the action performed as long as the other team has their time wasted.

Yeah, if you want to go full DEUS VULT you'll have to play tanks, Rhein and Zarya are probably up your alley character wise (Don't be fooled by Zarya's tumblr hair).


Thanks, I couldn't remember if it was 80 or 30.

What a world.
Well is Mercy at least good at all?

Only been playing against shit Genji's then, good to know.

If you like being a healslut like me Mercy is good, but she really need fixing as of now, compared with the other supports' versatility.

She's got a good single target heal, and her ult is stupid, the problem is that she has no way to get out of a bad spot, so when you get focused by someone you're fucked.

half the team running off and dying doesn't contribute anything. And when spawncamping fails you end up with the majority of the team on the point vs whomever was babysitting the point before. Just stay on the point and defend from there.

What about Lucio? Dude's basically a Brazilian Jet Set Radio character with a retardedly strong healbomb as his ultimate. Zen's got a similar one that makes him invincible and does stupid damage + amp.

you can't beat her rez ult used at the right time and decent single target heal.

her damage boost isn't all that great. You are better off switching to the gun and pew pew to help kill, but your teammate might bitch about that cause they suck.

pls go

Chase and spray that robonigger down with your ice, or hit him with an ice bolt.
If you're highly incompetent at aiming then this may happen, in this case you've damaged him enough that the robonigger is running for a health pack and you've got the clear advantage to kill him because you know where he is going to be and you've got higher health and you can restrict his movement, you can even dump an ice wall on the health pack to stop him grabbing it if you feel like it.
>Or one of you Genji dies
Well I don't see why you have any issue with Mei stomping Genji, unless you're retarded.

Well unfortunately overwatch replaces the whole engineer defense vs Medic+Heavy tanking combo from TF2 with nothing.

Im not saying its a bad game its just not a team strategy FPS like TF2.

If you have seen those mobile suit gundam Japanese arcade games, its a bit like that.
No room for strategy just shit literally flying about everywhere at random on the screen.

You know that Genji has barely any leeway for movement after pressing space for the second time? He's locked into the direction he picked when he pressed space. He can't recover from the fall either unless he grabs a wall, which makes him even easier to hit since triple jumping isn't a thing anymore.

You kidding? That sounds right up my goddamn alley. Gundam Vs. and Virtual On are my jam. I hate games with super strong defense. I love man-moding in that shit.

doesn't matter how you like going about doing it as long as you waste the other teams time. contesting the point is perfectly viable.

the only way to win is to have the other team run out of time, so anything that allows that is acceptable. If they make progress on the point then you haven't been wasting their time and need to do better.

You know, I completely agree with you, but for Mei instead of Genji. Genji I can deal with, but Mei is the embodiment of cancer.

We're done.

Imagine the aim on the Genji's you're playing again, then refer to

Im not kidding. Sounds like you will enjoy it.

I think most of the people criticising the game (such as myself) are doing so because the game didnt meet our expectations regarding teamwork and strategy.

Its not a bad game in fact its very slick, attrractive and highly polished.

I would disagree about there being no stragegy, the strategy is mostly who counters what, learing when to ult and how to bait out abilities.
I'll be honest I never got too into TF2, can you explain what kind of strategy that was present there?
Thanks for not shitposting, It's cool that you don't like it, I just want to know what you were expecting out of the game

Cool, then I'm sold as soon as I get that new computer. I've been watching Seagull videos and stuff to hold me over in the meantime, Zarya looks cool. Reminds me of Sentry from Awesomenauts in play style.

You're just a salty faggot who can't counter a neutered hero because you're too retarded to look up. Genji is really situational now due to Blizz gutting lots of flanking routes with the mobility nerf. In fact, if Genji is so broken, please, please pick him up. Get to top 500 and show the world your fucking point. In fact, you know what teaches you to counter a hero? Playing him. Since you claim that you don't play Genji, you have no clue about his gameflow, his cooldowns or the way he has to play to make these disruptive maneuvers. As I said, git gud and stop being a bitch.

My fucking nigger, that's why I play her as well. Shielding teammates who are about to die is probably the best feeling in the game.

Your ice beam is about the range of his dash, what is the issue? You have to walk 5 meters at most to finish him.

is not an issue. Refer to &

Holy shit wait
please tell me you guys play pirated versions

Literally explained in the post before mine.

I love that shielding yourself or allies boosts your overall damage output instead of just the black hole too. Makes her less predictable than sentry. I mean yeah, you can't do teleport shenanigans so easily but at least she's still got a black hole ability with some massive AoE to boot. I like them both as characters too, comic relief (but still cool) terrible spy robot and giant Russian strongwoman.

That's a bit of an exageration, no? There are lots of routes he can still take anyway, very few were lost because he missed that double jump.

cant wait for a character who removes buffs

So what are people hoping for in relation to Halloween skins? Reinhardt just got one so I guess he isn't getting one. Though I'd love a FULL GUNDAM skin like Pharah has. Since Torbjorn has a viking skin in the "teaser image" people are talking about its not limited to just spooky themes. Slasher Roadhog would also be amazing.

sexy things for the ladies

AYY LMAO for zen

With little saucers instead of the iron balls. That would be great.

I'm hoping for a new map that's a spooky graveyard. Also, that sexy witch costume for Mercy. And whatever Junkrat and Roadhog get, I'm syre it's gonna be hilarious.

I've found Overwatch to be a mediocre, but still fun-at-times, game with tons of good porn and fan art alike. That being said, I haven't touched the game since they started with competitive mode shit, and the Anna update. Has it gotten even remotely better with that new map? Did they rebuff McCree?

The new map's pretty fun, though it suffers from two really bad chokepoints. McRee's range before damage started falling off was increased, though his ult was nerfed so you can't cancel and keep half of it.

Some futa Zarya would be great.

why not just turn her into a man at that point

Sheesh. It's like they don't even want you to use it.

Is Mei still fun to harass people with at least?

Yes, plus her Ult radius got buffed, and healing increases your ult charge, she's now a complete fucking monster.

I didn't realize this in the 10 minutes or so I've played her. Holy shit now I'm scared to even shoot at her.

Literally everything that his been said about this game has been said. Overwatch threads have overstayed their welcome and if they can't defend themselves from shitposters without mod intervention then they deserve to be shitposted to death.

Holy shit that's great. This gives me a reason to actually update and play again. Thanks for filling me in user

>Filthy Knife-ear Elven Hanzo

??? Inside the castle, near that bend right after the main door there's one, I suppose, but before that, pretty much all the map has multiple road to take around.


Oh. I should have though of that, since Roadhog is beast now with his self healing.
You just made me love terrorizing with Mei even more.

Under the bridge near the computer shop before the first point, and the castle gate after the payload has gone through. The only flanking route through the first one involves using Pharah or D.Va and going to the right, otherwise you have to pass through. And the second is easily choked up by Junkrat.

I haven't played the map too often, so I'm not sure how well people are able to get through those, it's just from the times I've played those seem to be the problem areas.

would buy 10/10

genius

You avin a giggle m8

A witch skin for Mercy, with a custom emote where she hops on her broom and flies around.

A rubber Godzilla suit for D.Va (though I guess you could instead get a Mechagodzilla if you're a faggot). When ulting, the suit's back spikes light up and does Godzilla's breath attack. D.Va pops out dressed like a Japanese schoolgirl in a sailor suit.

Magical Girl/Witch Zarya, with a big magic wand instead of her gravity gun. And a hat to hide that fucking hair.

Symmetra…I don't know, Bollywood? Maybe a belly dancer? Seems lazy but I can't think of anything.

Make Pharah's suit black, spiky, and shiny then give it a tail, and you have a half-decent xenomorph copyright-infringement lawsuit waiting to happen.

If Sombra's out by then she's a lock-in for a Predator costume.

I think wrapping a few bandages around Ana would make for a good mummy. Plus, there's the incredibly obvious pun there. Or, preferably, young Ana sexy mummy. MILF.

For Tracer, a vampire skin. Lots of stories have them being able to transform and move by becoming mist, so just give her blink/rewind a mist after-effect.

They're not going to put Mei in anything revealing, so I'm not going to think hard for her. Polar bear skin or snowman skin. Or maybe no skin, since they're probably going to give her like 10 come Christmas.

Last, for Widow, just make her suit black, change the spider motif to a bat motif, and count the seconds until a DC Comics lawsuit.

Alternately I wanted a "Band Camp" junkrat, where his rip tire is a drum. When he ults, he'd shout "Drumroll Please!", and the sound of the rip tire would be the drumroll. The explosion is replaced by a cymbal clash.

reminds me of something. jacked fairy godmother zarya would be great. she even grants shield wishes.

This fucking shit right here is too damm true

...

I just tested the first choke flank with a bunch of characters and the only ones who seem to be able to make it are Pharah and Lucio. Genji can almost make it and probably could if he still had his triple jump but Dva and Winston don't quite have the distance, Junkrat double mine jump I either kept fucking up or can't quite make it around the bend and Widow and Reaper can't get line of sight around the bend to grapple/teleport.

Apparently a speedboosted Reinhardt can jump the gap between the spawn gate and the point on chingchong tower with his charge.

I did it once by complete accident and I have no interest in experimenting further, but it could make for a funny start of round flank play.


Her shields need to sparkle, too.

No need for that.
Get a team to stand in a line and place an icewall over it. As long as everyone's on top of the wall, no problem.

… I dont get it.

>says "30% damage increased" when he applies orb of discord

>says "30 hit points restored per second" when he applies orb of harmony

>says "300 hit points per second for all allies within a 10 meter radius" when he ults

blöd means stupid


D.Va and Phara and thus, Mercy can get over the destroyed bakery you run into from spawn and can then either flank the defence or just get on point and get attention that way

Shit, I didn't consider that. You could probably do a lot of mischief with ice wall boosting.

I've seen Mei players on my team putting ice walls under sleep darted players to make them harder to focus, I'll have to see if it works on players in Junkrat's bear trap.

...

Good question actually. Beartrap prevents the knockback from the concussion mine, but if it didn't move the player up, would it make them stuck inside the wall?

Oh wow, I wasn't even testing that side. I was testing around the wall. Good to know though it seems to leave them a bit too exposed to be useful compared to going around the other side.

By the way. Are Meis who start games by putting ice walls at spawn are shit players for not first waiting for someone to walk through and cutting them from their team?

That's the point of the walls, divide and conquer, what good is delaying someone for a few seconds going to do?

because you delay them all the time and shave off a lot of time in total.
Also because usually everyone runs out in a massive pack and you can't seperate.

And it's a real dick move wich is what Mei is about

Considering how the maps are 100% played around chokepoints walling the enemy team in spawn is retarded every time. It's overextending and unnecessarily dangerous when you could jsut wall somewhere like the gate on hanamura and get kills there without having to set up again.

Why does this keep working?!

Delaying the enemy team for a few seconds by itself isn't terribly useful; you have to do it at a critical moment, such as when they've popped an ult and are about to push in. You can ruin pushes with proper timing.

not just that it isn't useful, it's actually counterintuitive. all you'll achieve by blocking them out is you'll basically force them to group up, giving them a better chance against your team. walling the entire team is only useful if you're about to cap the objective and you only need 3 more seconds or if your zarya/phara has ult and actually intends to use it after you wall.

Ausfags are the easiest to deter.
All you have to do is mention the war.

Sombra when

Time for some more fooling around.

We need a Symmetra femdom doujin.

Only if she is going to shit on someone's chest.

Nah, it needs to involve an older business man on the fence about merging with vishkar. She has a private meeting and puts on the curry-flavored charm. While she's stroking him, she sticks a hardlight cockring around him, and keeps jerking him off until he's suck a frustrated mess that he agrees to give full control over. Then she keeps going.

in the middle of a street :^)

...

why is that bad?

very limited shading options.

SFM is babby's first 3D "animation" program, animation in quotes because you never do any actual animation yourself. This coupled with the fact you have terrible shaders, like said, and awful models to work with lead to all porn and shit being ugly as fuck. Like for instance take the webm you just posted. The guy who made it couldn't emulate the skin of the cock rolling over the glans during a tight handjob so all he did was compress the top of the model to make it cheaply look like that was happening, except it just looks stupid.

yep. i mean, i don't mind it either way. if the animation is well made it's good one way or the other but SFM isn't that easy to figure out either and if you're gonna go out of your way to learn how to animate and all that stuff, why not at least use proper software like blender or maya?

This game is shit, it's memes are shit and usually extensions of other preexisting memes and the game, company and fanbase is shallow as fuck. Jerking off has more depth than Overwatch.

That's the problem: you will never have a well made animation in SFM.

Here's your (you)

I don't know about the rest of you, but it's about the time that school ends here.

Let's go even further, use DAZ3D for the base animations and then export it to Blender or Maya to do the rest of the stuff, hell, Blender Game Engine looks better in some cases.

aww shit niggers what the fuck you doing

Giving him his (you), it's all he deserves.

What does "actual animation" entail doing then?

Actual animation and rigging

...

BLIZZARD STOP

uh, what?

Don't you only lose rank on a loss no matter how poorly you do?

are you the kind of nig to shit on game maker too?

Well, on a loss I always lose rank, but I can also lose rank on a draw, the sad thing is, I barely gain points after breaking a losing streak.

I got a really stupid idea. Might as well post it here.

Game Maker you can do stuff with
SFM not so much

it's like playing support became fun again

Ana is by far the most interesting sniper hero.

It means actually doing the rigging yourself. Setting up the skeleton, connect all the polygons to it with weight as well (how much each bone controls each vertice)
Then set up keyframes for the rig so you can have your animation going with decent quality. You usually don't even have to do everything, interpolation helps a lot, but it's still important to watch carefully what keyframes you choose.

I think it's a bit unfair since SFM just bypasses the rigging. There's not that much of a difference afterwards to classical animation except maybe you can't do as much with it. I'm not familiar with SFM but from the animations, it seems to cover at least 80% of whatever you would like to do with regular animation anyway.

Fringe cases are like here: where you'd need to roll the skin for better quality. This would require both a new cock bone to push the model of the skin down as well as changing the texture of it to match the movement. That's one way, there's probably others, but SFM most likely just gives you a bone in the cock and you gotta work with it.


I hope for your team's sake that you actually take down Pharah's and other snipers. Picking Ana and doing no sniping is like picking Hanzo.

literally the undertale of teambased shooters

>Realize I'm having Fun with the weebbait sniper
Someone help me.

...

I don't get the point of that. Who pays 40 bucks to go into boring one sided matches?

From what I understand you have to do rigging to get new models working in SFM, so it doesn't seem all that different. Just less complicated though with more restrictions for what can be done with the software.

I didn't for sure, I didn't even know it would be that way.

Took some more screens, I think these have potential.

...

...

The amount of points you lose is bullshit.
So I had 2400, then a loss took me down to 2369, but a win only took me up to 2389.
My season high was 2776. It seems impossible to get back up there.

Sorrt for being clueless, but is that a Blizz asset?

What do you mean blizz asset?

Where?

The poster in the background touting natural oil.

In GitS: SAC, there was that one episode where Batou causes a tachikoma to go haywire and adopt a small child because he gave it natural oil. This differentiation among the robots eventually leads to them developing distinct personalities. It was a fun plot point.

My real question is: was someone at Blizz a big of a sperg as me, or am I looking at mod content?

Sorry for KC tier explanation

oh, no, is not mod content, is in the game, the screens I take just have no UI because I enabled hi-res screenshots.

10min in MSPaint, I cant get good font.


Huh.

Neat

The second one here is my favorite, but I can't think of anything good for it.

This game needs a proper MILF character tbh. The current roster consists of young girls and a grandma. Where's my MILF with the nice tits and ass?

Ana. She has a young skin.

Turned out like shit but here you go.


I love it.

Mercy's in her 30's, so she sorta counts.

I can try to take some other screenshots using custom game mode, although I don't have all sitting emotes except for Symmetra, Torb and Tracer, also I think the laugh emote for reaper has potential.

Alt+z turns off the UI too.


Her young skin gives off more of an older sister vibe than milf imo.

this is great.

Yes, but it also cancels the sitting, when I am in skirmish I have to check the angle, sit, disable and sit again or something like that, besides, I don't find any need for the UI on any screens I take right now.

So everyone, how's that Season 2 going?


Just pain and suffering. For every win I get like 3 losses.
I'm now on teams who seem to be near completely fucking retarded.

Haven't touched comp since I placed 2271, half because my buddy's been out of commission the last few nights and half because I dread the possibility of dropping down to silver like I probably deserve.

I'm still at gold and I was as low as 1908

You can't drop down tiers. Only ranks. Except for Master/Grandmaster, you can drop out of those.

I've had really good luck with comp so far, though I haven't played a lot of matches. Placed around 2600, currently just under 2800. I always play with my buddy and we do pretty well. Even when shit's going bad we usually manage to turn it around and steal a win.

I'll know in my head I'm playing silver though and that's just as bad

Defending the choke point 20 feet away that they all have to get through, allowing you to fight on your terms and waste their time by forcing them back to spawn

OK, I got some, hope they are useful.

...

...

I placed 2300, got a big loss streak after placements going to 2000~ish before crawling my way back up to 2500. I think I just got lucky with teams I had after the wave of utter retards.

...

...

I chuckled

...

The rest is up to you.

L I T E R AL

I think you are probably reading too much into it. Unless the name or something matches it's probably just a coincidence. We have here a city of humans and omnics living together as equals, so they probably figured they needed some kind of signage marketing to omnics. Not a whole lot of possible products to sell them though.

What should be on the screens?

How are people so bad at this game

I swear people are going to start complaining about Mei next

...

I think is an ATM, there is a better screen here

kofi

I had a guy bitching about how there should be a cap on the number of mei's allowed in quickplay earlier.

ive never seen a team with more than one mei win. there are more heroes in the game that can deal with her than she can cause an actual hindrance to. and with every meimei youre sacrificing a lot of damage.

I've heard people complain about Mei a lot. I have no idea why. She's really not that good. I never thought Bastion was that good either, but I at least understood why people were flipping their shit. With Mei it makes no sense.

Because Mei represents a slow death mostly, people end up getting upset when they begin to slow down only to freeze and then get a headshot while they are still watching everything go by.

In any case, the counter to Mei is simply never going alone unless you are Tracer or Genji.

Get 6 Meis to coordinate their wall.

Enemy will never leave spawn.

Her Snow Plum skin makes her look better because is shiny.

I've played a few games with an all Mei team and it feels ameizing when you win. Especially on attack. Holy shit the ammount of salt you harvest from that is incredible. Or when you run down the clock by constantly icewalling the other team in their spawn and get them to quit.
Anyway, she's not too great at dealing damage but she's a consistent pain in the ass to enemies, and a real life saver if the player can time their walls right. I feel better seeing a mei during set up than when I see a hanzo or widow.

Hanzo is still pretty inconsistent and the only times I have seen him win in comp is because the player is more or less cheating one way or another.

shes easiest to deal with alone though, so much of the cast can just damage her so quickly that shes forced to meicicle. shes at her deadliest when her team is landing nearly guaranteed hits on the shit she slows and isolates.


well im comforted by the unmistakable presence of her breasts.

I hardly play comp, so maybe that's why I've had so much success with Mei.
He's the Junkrat of snipers, only his spam can crit; can mark targets; and is easier to hit with.

...

Mei is being played in comp right now thanks to her ult's bigger size, what I mean by not going alone is for ambushes mostly, as for Hanzo, yep, but lately I don't know if the 50/50 is enforced by some hidden mechanics but sometimes Hanzo seems to charge up too many ults per round, almost as fast as a good McCree.

im upset i didnt think of it.
there are a lot of good costume ideas in this thread

...

Placed 2880 or so. Lowest I've been was ~2550. Currently I'm 2600 something. Losses hit rank so fucking hard when they can take twice as many points as a win gives.

id like a female orc skin for Zarya

3 wins 7 losses in placement put me at like 2030
since then Ive won all my ranked games since people actually listen and dont pick bastion and torb and every other useless hero when asked to change they normally do
at like 22xx

i hope blizzard starts implementing community made skin concepts

OP, you shouldn't speak about the Dead, that's in pretty poor taste

Just let the young girl rest.

Its really fucking annoying that this game makes you lose more points than gain.

jesus christ reddit needs to leave

thats fucking terrible
the entire community is fucking terrible
if it was up to the community we would have a fucking trans junkrat skin

The art is terrible. The concept is alright.

It WAS either more popular than league or threatening to overtake league, can't remember which. Means it's lost a LOT of popularity since it came out.

It also goes +/- 10 000 viewers depending on who's streaming, what time it is, what day it is.

All in all it means fuck all.

Fucking wow expansion took over lol the day it launched
Doesnt mean people wanna actually watch it or that its good
Broteam had 2000 people watching him playing rev60 but the game didnt even peak past 10 players

It's really difficult to enjoy this game when enemies can just shoot through each other.

league of legends has more girls playing. theyll get decimated in overwatch

Everyone who tuned into Legion streaming was watching Sodapoppin' that's. fucking. It

Which was amazing by the way, holy fuck 20/10 stream

but heres the thing you fucking goon lapdogs


Blizzard pushed, marketed and sold this thing as being the NEXT BIG ESPORTS meal ticket

It's entire fucking game is based around being fun to WATCH not fucking play!

Nope. Paul Blart.

Another thing. You shouldn't lose as many points if someone leaves. I had 2368, someone left when we were winning. As predicted, we got stomped and I go down to 2341. You shouldn't get punished this hard.
Now I have to win 2 games to make up for someone leaving mid-match.

[citation needed]

Then why does it have a fuckload of people playing and not that many watching someone else play it?

It shouldn't be taking you 2 games to match a loss, 27 points in a win is fairly low-average. As usual, if you are losing more than you are gaining per game the "personal skill" aspect of ranking thinks you are trash. This coming from someone who mains fucking Mercy and can still earn 25+ in a win and almost always more per win than per loss (bad games happen).

Anyway, as for your actual question, it's important that a single person can't leave in order to mitigate the loss for everyone else. This mostly applies to groups, though you could still do it if you happen to get placed with your friends outside of a group.

The way the system SHOULD work is that the earlier in the match and the less-decided the match seems to be when someone leaves, the less negative rank the leavers team receives and the less positive for the other team. On the off chance the leaver's team still wins both teams should get the full amount.

I see this "hurr durr, blizzard wants the e-sports audience, hurr durr" shitpost a lot, but can anyone show me a single ad, that emphasizes the e-sport component of the game? Heck, competitive game wasn´t even intrduced to the game until two months after release or so.

Stuff like the forced use of battle.net and their previous stigma with SC2 may be arguments for Blizzard wanting the e-sports audience. Competitive was most likely introduced later on to allow people to get accustomed to the mechanics of every character.

Still I don't see why its amount of twitch streamers should be an indicate of whether the game is shit or not. I thought most of Holla Forums hated the streaming vidya culture and thus, this was supposed to be a good thing given that there would be less cancerous streamers than other games, which in turn leads to less cancerous people joining the game.

Maybe trying to make sense of shitposting ITT is not a very good idea.

That's like saying valve requiring steam for TF2 means they were forcing e-sports in TF2 from the start.

something something can't be serious e-sports if there's no audience.
If a game does badly in Twitch, it can't be an e-sport.
Which ironically, looking at the numbers from Twitch means we are safe from that cancer!
not really


Diamond AK rank here, I ram random objects into each other better than every other player in their PC and have over 300 confirmed footages proving it.
Ya'll faggots don't even play single-player competitively.

If I lose a game, then win a game. I get just under what I lost.
I was 2445 -> 2422 -> 2439
And it's not like I'm playing terrible in the matches we win, I sometimes carry the golds if I solo queue.

What is not being trash then? I get golds up the ass and whatever but still gain 14 but lose 20-40.

Meanwhile my rank changes look more like 2601>2632>2609>2634>2616

I could post my full numbers (again), but there's so many streaks it's hard to pick out the back and forth.

Medals. Don't. Matter.

The game is looking at your overall statistics. We don't know what exactly it looks for, but we do know that it varies from character to character. It's generally going to be looking for things like "killing blows per minute on attack on Dorado on McCree", as an example. What it is not looking for is medals, because getting gold medal for 12 elims in a 20 minute game means shit when the system expects you to get closer to 60 in that time frame.

Actually, how the system probably scores is by giving an individual value to each action, so for example killing blow as mccree on attack on dorado with 54% damage to target =+13. Then at the end of the round it divides your score by the amount of time spent in the round, finds you averaged 20 per minute, expects you to be roughly 35 per minute for your given rank, and attempts to force your rank down until you reach the appropriate level for someone who can only score 20.

All numbers are of course made the fuck up because the system is deliberately hidden from players.

Yeah man, Unreal Tournament did bad on twitch, that means its a shit e-sport right?

Also to add to this, medals for eliminations are pretty much worthless because it's kills and assists. If Winston tickles the balls of six players for 3 damage each who all suddenly die to a tire. Both Winston and Junkrat will have gotten six eliminations each. Healing and objective time are the only medals that actually matter. Eliminations are fine if your final blows roughly match your elims.

Yo, hit me with a good-sized image of Old Man Blitzkrieg outside of his armor.

I'm trying to find one to make a custom poster out of.

...

nigga…

4u


Loliwatch when?

Thanks man.

when we earn back gods love

Hot damm.
But that Ana is WAY too white

You can still play in custom servers in the case of TF2. Blizzard no longer allows this so every attempt at competitive play with money involved has to go through them.

If you have the time, check this out. It's a long series of articles but it's a nice explanation of why having control of online play is important for Blizzard, and also why it's not working as well as they expected. This was from the Starcraft 2 days, but applies to Overwatch as well.
learntocounter.com/the-creation-of-battle-net-2-0-part-one/

Surely this will be fixed sometime down the line, right?

I've been getting a lot of random lag spikes recently fpr some unknown reason. Otherwise I haven't had much trouble.

playing as mei, i've thrown up icewalls and bullets/arrows have passed through, using my shift ability, I've heard the initial sound play for the freeze and die. I've also been killed multiple times by other mei's who came out of iceshield and started attacking but it doesn't show on killcam.

Oh yeah that shit happens constantly. I've pretty much just stopped paying any attention to it because it happens in all games with matchmaking and I assume it's never going away unless we go back to the old community ran server system which is never going to happen. Such a big part of the soul of online shooters died with matchmaking.

i just want hundred custom map servers back. always an adventure, even if it isnt a particularly well designed map. not to mention 'rat' maps

How do you guys even find fun in this game?

I've now put about 98 hours into it and I'm getting absolutely infuriated at just how retarded randoms seem to be.

I have no friends that play it, and I highly doubt any will during the free weekend, so teaming up and having fun dicking around isn't an option.

I just want to find the fun again.

...

Nice thumbnail.

That was actually a nice move, I ain't even mad.

If I get to a point where I feel like I'm being held back by the rest of the team, I just switch to a hero I'm shit at and practice with them. Not gonna waste practice time.

My problem with that is I feel like I'm good enough at most heroes, some are near impossible to be good at without keyboard and mouse though, like Widowmaker, or Genji.

being retarded on purpose i see

Newfags today don't know how people dealt with attention whores back then, I guess.

Holla Forums, how do I find a good group to play with?

Even if PC is ultimately superior, it still has shitty community. Get a PS4.

PC is for people who want to be left alone while they game, i.e. most of Holla Forums, PS4 is for people who actually want to be social.

sounds like they were salty about getting spanked and jumped on you because youre 'the new guy'


what

You know it's true. The PS4 Overwatch community isn't polluted by salty fagtrons and 12 yr old CoD kiddies.

Hi there. Level 100 pure solo queue on PS4 here.

I've heard maybe 10 people in all my games have their mica on, and half the time it's just air conditioner noises, or a nigger's child wailing because his father is too busy to care.

If anything makes it shitty, it seems to be the tryhard wannabe-esports types who flunked out of Little League as kids and have to be sporting about everything, even getting curbstomped by the same team twice in a row because of shitty matchmaking.

But fuck it, I play this to unwind after work. Can't get tryhards get to me.

Is there any reason that people don't trade battletags in these threads and play together? I wouldn't mind having a proper group.


I'd play every game for the rest of my life alone rather than rely on auto-aim.

im shy

I already have a group of friends I shit around with in quick play and another group that's good at the game for comp.

I did when someone asked, then he said I was a shitty silver player and he would rather have a solo queue.

RIP
If you play in NA and if my comp team wasn't already full I would've invited you.

You got it.


dijonmustang#1256
We'll play one or two games and then never play again.

No problem, in any case I have seen groups of 2-3 having an easier time.

I haven't reached comp level yet

Added~

It sounds like you just said "people who aren't sore losers and try to keep a positive attitude" are what make it shitty. Maybe I'm reading the wrong definition of "sporting about everything"

Anyway, I've posted mine a few times, last season it worked out pretty well. This season the only people who seem to be interested are silver league while I'm about to push diamond.

Sotanaht#1102. I won't be on to accept for about 5 hours though since I'm about to leave.

I fucking swear if the balance is set up as "Group A is really good so they should carry group B (3 solo queue players) while team 2 gets a decent group A and a semi competent group B" I'm going to lose it. And fuck groups that don't use team chat and pick mercy and genji.

So, what are your favorite things about competitive play?

Mine is when the team loses some MLG faggot blames the entire team.
Its like, where the fuck were you when I had golds in everything but healing and was the only one stopping the other team from moving their payload?

Golds dont fucking matter. A support/tank can have ==NO MEDALS== and you can and most likely will be the deciding factor as to whether you win or lose.

...

It's people that get so mad at "unsporting" banter in chat that they kick you out after a week of playing together. It's not about positive attitude, it's about being oversensitive.

Its a good indicator of team effort and output. If you have most of the golds you're doing most of the work.

That's a good way to put it. If you've got gold in something with low numbers then you know the rest of your team is braindead

exactly.
I think in an ideal situation the numbers should be high and the medal rankings should be constantly fluctuating between team members.
In an optimal situation really only the healer should be getting top gold in healing and objective time.

New bread soon? I want to repost the screens or something.

...

Oh boy

...

...

...

Obligatory ass shots.

Fair enough. I would however kick someone who started yelling at teammates in chat. Even if that teammate is a stubbern torb main, I don't need someone going off in my chat and tilting everyone else more.
