Fuck off back to halfchan and don't come back.

Which is worse: Overmeme or Undermeme?

That's dumb, there already are 4 heroes with a jumping skill and 4 more with high vertical mobility, why would you need jump pads?

People who cry about games because they're popular or have annoying fanbases are much much worse.

nice

both
both are worse

...

I hope they remember to make those move you horizontally a bit. Otherwise I can see a Bastion ping ponging up and down on those in turret form.
Õtherwise, I predict FUN with those. Particulary as Junkrat uses the sticky to reach new heights.
Meh, unless there's a glass ceilling and people can see you down there, that's not really all that interesting. Same as lateral flank routes.
AHAHA, time for Roahog to pull some twinks into a ROADRAGE
I'm not apologizing for that joke.

People who cry about other people not liking their shitty game are worse tbh

People who cry are faggots.
MAN UP

Most likely, so that everyone is on a equal playing level and will not get left behind. Which could cause them to become upset and then demand a refund while telling their friends about their expirence. Only particularly joking.

yeah you've got nothing

...

Anyone looking to queue? Solo is suffering.

Oh boy, another hit-and-run OP

You can´t really move up and down on these jump pads, because they are also boosting you horizontally forward.

GO HOME OVERCUCKS

Just for you, user.


It's not about needing, it's about FUN. Also, testing.
From what they said, they incorporated jump pads into this map and they're gonna see how they work out so it seems to be more like they want to see what people do with them.
Most likely because you can't beat your own playerbase when it comes to exploiting things.

Maybe if this works out well, we'll see jumppads on the old maps or even more crazy shit.

So is this shit going f2p Soon? Because I'm not shelling out 30 bucks for this. Not even TF2 cost this much on PC before it went f2p

I want to die


Not even Siege went F2P, what makes you think this will?
It aint 2019 anymore, we have fully priced games with cosmetics.

for reinhardt to do rocket body slams

This shit pisses me off to no end.

Thank you blizzard, here's all my cash :)

Overwatch is best for porn and memes.

That game never looked like it was worth 15 dollars.

...

bongo man is the worst character in like every way I seriously don't get why people play him

Considering the massive success they've had so far? I really doubt it.
It's gonna take many years before that happens, especially considering everyone that paid for it, although that could be offset if they offered the buy value in loot boxes, I guess. Lots of players would think it's a fair trade.


You came to a thread about a game you didn't liked, you knew very well that nothing you'd find here would please you.
You make yourself miserable by choice, user. You have no one else to blame, but you can't stop it, you'll keep the thread open and you'll be back for the next one because pretending to have moral high ground to confirm your bias feels so good…
I'd almost feel sympathy for your kind if you weren't this pathetic…


It seems there's a bit of a delay before being catapulted up. Dunno if they even require you to be still for a while before they work, but I doubt it. Reinharts coming out of those things midcharge is gonna be amazing Webm material.

Looks like an overly commercialized copy of TF2 cooked up by suits in a boardroom.

After getting placed in bronze after 4 matches of nothing but shitters on my team exclusively, I just uninstalled the damn thing. I am so fucking tired of every three matches being fucked by assholes who cannot aim worth shit.

So yea, fuck overwatch. Most cancerous community out here.
I still like the fan art though.

That's not a smart idea. When you're doing your placement matches, you're placed with and against people with any skill level at all. You're bound to meet really bad players and really good players on both sides and in your case, it was just 4 matches out of 10, right?

This is why personal skill also plays a role in the ranking you get, so even if you lose those games, it won't penalize you as much as long as you did your part (though, if you got stuck in bronze…)

The real deal only starts after you're done with the placement. If you were gauged much lower than your skill level actually is, you'll gradually rise up to where you should be (or go down if you were carried instead) so don't fuss so much over placement matches, those aren't the real game.

Calm down permavirgin

Can heal multiple allies, mobile as well with speed boost and wall run

Shouldn't you guys be in your subreddit that the devs praised?

Well, he did post something new this time, but it's both from the VGA and a "let's player" so double faggotry points for him.
You keep giving them those (You)'s for reposting e-celeb shit about awards that nobody should care about, you're just devaluing the merchandise.


Satan, you can't trick me.
Bongo man only outheals anyone else if he keeps spamming E and has at least 3 people nearby. He trades healing for movement that nobody, not even him, uses. Brings no damage to the table either and his CC is very situational. Might as well bring Monkmurder and kill people, Nana and stay stafe or Mercy and actually heal people and fly around like a retard. And once the PTR goes live, even Symetra will be a better choice than he is.

GOTY

:^)

What country is this map even based on anyway? It seems like it could be somewhere on the western coast due to the palm trees.


That symetra buff seems a bit excessive in all honesty. The turret change is nice, but that double ultimate is going to be annoying to deal with on attacking, due to the fact that if done right they will never die due to the shields, and a reinhardt.

His design is like the most hilariously patronising way they could have possibly implemented a black person in their game, they don't even cuck well, there could literally just be a victory emote of him ripping into a chicken leg and I wouldn't bat an eye


can't have one of their precious brown sluts going underused

It's based on the wealthy cities of the Arabian Gulf such as Abu Dhabi. The biggest clue to this is the use of geometric designs in the architecture such as the 8-pointed star.

Also, there's Arabic writing in the bottom left of the OP image.

Somewhat similar to Numbani in terms of region. When it releases, maybe we'll get some clues on Doomfist, hopefully.

Symetra's Shield Generator just seems more like something for flankers to handle and give an edge over to the defenders if they stick together (a bad idea)
I can see it being annoying in Defense, although I'm more interested in knowing how it handles on Offense, something I expect Symetra to start doing a lot.

...

more?

That's not true. Your placement matches depend on your previous ranks and depending on your personal skill it either subtracts or adds some points (Unless you never played comp, then it just uses your quickplay performance as a base). If you were rank 3000 in s2 for example, you'll get exclusively matched with other people on the same rank. You can actually check where the system currently ranks you by checking the career profiles of your teammates.

The placement matches are a farce. It's basically just an extension of season 2. The only difference is that all the plat and gold players got placed lower to improve the distribution of players.

Alright so I finally caved to peer pressure and bought this shitty game. Thankfully it's more Team Fortress and less League of Legends than I was fearing. Are these threads actually usefull or just autism?

I've tried a number of characters and so far my true calling seems to be Tracer. Anyone can give me some pro tips? As far as I can tell my biggest job is to be annoying. Attacking from behind and drawing enemy attention away from more crucial persons. I need to always save one blink for getting away, and time rewind is basically for regaining health and for surprise attacks. Is that about it?

Oh, didn't knew that. Guess that explains why most of my placement matches are close victories\defeats.
Still, if that guy kept being pitted with retards, well…


Like everyone was telling you here. The only thing it had in common with League was heroes with abilities and that was it. Never rely on shitposters for anything more serious than a quick laugh.
You also had the free-weekend to try the game, you didn't really had to invest in it before you checked it out.

First of all, get to know your damage falloff. Tracer does stupid amounts of damage at less than 15 meters. 220 or so if you hit all shots and this isn't counting headshots that give you double damage. Try the shooting range to get a feel as to what 15 meters are.
This essentially means she can kill many classes in 2 seconds if she can get close enough to them.

Blink is a skill that requires knowing the maps very well. Failure to do so will have you blink against walls or on to pits. You should also learn how to use it to clear gaps (you can flank Volskaya going from the side, for instance). Always try to keep at least one charge in reserve in case of emergency.

Rewind is good to regain health but do keep in mind that good players will remenber where you where and you'll be VERY vulnerable to them when you recall. Don't stay long in open ground or you'll rewind there instead. It's also pretty good to faint people. You can jump off a ledge and have someone else follow you then rewind back up there. You can also use it after flanking to teleport into their backs, but this needs good positioning.

Her Ult is excellent to break clumps of enemies, try to look for 2-3 together and drop it there, especially a Reinhart with a barrier up and people behind him shooting.
Don't be afraid to use it, she regains charge insanely fast as long as you can keep damage on the other team.

Don't stick for longer than 2 seconds, you'll be killed for certain, don't engage from a big distance, always go for the element of surprise before attacking, always target supports and snipers first and leave the Ult to multiple characters together.

Kinda shoudl add some exceptions to her Ult:
While you might wanna hit multiple people with her, there's two situations you want to use it on a single hero:
Yeah, you canb unload 220 damage, he's gonna turn, and firestrike+hammer you. Best ult him if your team is ready to enter. Otherwise bait him and dash out if you're waiting for your team.
You can hit the blue bit behind him and cause massively stupid damage, but chances are one of your shots is not gonna connect right, or wathever and that 3HP Bastion is gonna look back and spraypaint the wall with your skin.
Either learn to melee after every spray, or ult him. Best to ult him in any case.

So getting close is my key to dealing damage. I know there are certain characters I should definitely avoid in close range. Cowboy guy can stun me and murder me immediately, Reaper has those shotguns that eat my health bar right away, and I know it isn't my job to kill the big guys but at least I can avoid dying immediately to any of the tanks except for Winston because he has some bullshit electric gun that aims for him. So my tactic for other classes is flank from behind, deal my damage, and get out again?

The sticky bomb also seems to vary hugely in how effective it is when I use it. Sometimes it's great and sometimes it barely scratches anyone. I'm guessing I should try for it when their health is already low? Also still getting used to the throwing arc and the AOE radius but that will come soon I suppose.

That gun is one of the biggest ammounts of butthurt in-game and I love it. Thanks to the fact that Winston isn't all that used, most people haven't learned to play against him.
That shit goes over Barriers, D.Va's defense matrix and a lot of of other shit. Not to mention the essential close-quarter auto-aim.
It has a drawback that you can exploit as Tracer. Tracer can just blink away. Now, DON'T BLINK AGAIN JUST YET. Let the Winston leap at you, and THEN blink. He's done. And you can damage him quite a bit by keeping a medium distance between you too. He's a great source of damage to charge your ulti but you gotta dance outside his range.

The thing about Winstion is that people charge in, and expect to take all that damage and remain alive. In fact, he's a large target and dies quite easily when 3 people look in his direction. Leaping and spraying some damage his is biggest threat. Leap in, spray a bit, place a shield, spray until leap is out of cooldown (your shield breaks in the meantime) then leap out. Most of the time you'll see Winston's leaping FURTHER into the enemy and they find themselves relading their weapon, at 230 HP in front of a Soldier 76 or Junkrat. The next thing they see is the spawn.

After Junkrat, Winston might be my favourite character. It's great to surprise Ult people who overly commit when they see you at low life.
It's also great to charge in, shield the ENEMY team so they can't shoot at yours and then leap out to heal.

You seeing a pattern here? Both Tracer and Winston share this: it's less about positioning and aiming, it's more about learning when to enter a fight and when to leave it. Heck, nearly most characters need to learn things. Except for junkrat. He needs to snackbar AS MUCH AS FUCKING POSSIBLE.

...

Yes, learn the damage falloff for each character.
For instance, Tracer gets max damage at 15 and less meters and minimum from 30 and up.
Soldier on the other hand only needs 30 to deal his max damage and this is why you don't engage him from medium or long distances.

Don't just run away when you see him, though. He's a counter to you of course, but just giving up is being a bad Tracer. Learn to bait him, to distract him and to Blink in when he's busy and unload bullets on his head before he turns around or Blink when you know he's gonna flashbang. Learn the map so you avoid going to doors with him waiting on the other side.

Easy to dodge for you, though. And you eat his health too but you're never gonna do 250 in one single clip, so unload some and blink away, then repeat for sure kill.

That's correct but do remenber: damage = charge for your Ult. You'll understand what I mean when you hug a Roadhog from behind and unload your clips on his ass. Just watch your Ult meter going up like you're hacking the game. (But try to finish the kills or you'll also be charging the enemy healers)

The bomb does 400 damage, it's a massive amount but people find cover fast. Try to land it on people to stick it in them.

Oh and don't just stick with Tracer. Try other heroes and try to be effective with as many as possible, even if you're not as good with them as with Tracer. Being able to switch characters and still helping is very important, plus it helps you learn what your oponent is gonna use against you.

The game apparently feeds me a highlight of my last match which I didn't know.
This is the type of shit I should be doing with Tracer, right?

I'm trying to learn at least one from every class in case someone picks Tracer first (weirdly doesn't happen as much as I thought it might) or if there's a weakness in the team that everyone else is refusing to fill.
I like the new brown chick with the SMG, not as much but she's still fun to play with some neat tricks. Defense type I've been playing as Widowmaker, I have to git gud at sniping though. My tank of choice so far is Reinhardt because of his huge shield. I've also been playing as the Zen Robot when healer because playing as Mercy feels a bit too passive. But even still, none of them have been as much fun.

Minus the stair confusion, and the wasting two blink charges.
But you did take out 2 tanks, so well played.
You also had two teammates nearby. Shame D.va died there. Usually killing two people while keeping yours alive ensures a successful push.
Overtime you'll start to notice that attackers kinda need to wipe out the enemy team (or at least 4 of them) to actually do anything.
Defenders can just kill 2 of you and that almost ensures the other 4 won't do jack shit.
If they kill your tank, they pick the others appart. If they kill the damage dealers, you'll be plinking at their tanks. If they kill the healers, well you lose the attrition war since they have advantage on medpacks (closer to them).

That's where chacters like Tracer shine: enter from the sides (Tracer can blink from the front with no problem, just leaves her a tad vulnerable) and take out some priority target. Mercy, Widow, Symetra. The squishies basically. You ult is a massive ace in the sleeve. Taking out the tankof the defenders usually ensures a push is met with little resistance, especially if your tank remains alive to soak up damage. This leaves you to roam and do wathever you want around the point. After your team sits on the point, you can stay there to help cap it faster, but since it caps at 3 people, if there's enough of your teammates there already, tracer is best taken to intercept enemies coming from their spawn. Plink at them, keep'em busy and let your team cap. With luck (or timing) you can rewind back to your team too.


Doesn't happen because most folks don't like Tracer. And not even because of the character, they just can't use her all that well: they leave themselves out in the open too long (read, more than 2 fucking seconds) and find themselves in the spawn room too often.

You'll see what I mean after seeing a few tracers on the enemy team.
And yeah, Zennyatta is probabbly gonna be your favourite. He's actually far more lethal than he should be. If you like Tracer, try picking Lucio when you need to pick a support character. He's pretty good at everything that doesn't involve actually killing shit.

This, plus keep in mind you should only be jumping in while your team is engaged with the enemy. The object it to divide their attention and bring their collective health down so that your team has a much easier time of finishing them off. If you jump in when you're the only target, you'll be dead before your leap recharges. Same is true for just about any harasser or pick class.

What's a twink?

Kill yourself

A skinny-ass gay-looking-motherfucker.
Not an in-game term, mind you.
Actually a legit term used by the GAY COMMUNITY aparently. How that stopped being and insult and become an accurate designation of sexuality is beyond me.

Perfectly describes this game

I also got pressured and am also a huge game cynic. I like it a lot more than I thought I would I have to admit. At least when playing with friends. Make sure you play with friends as much as possible to have the most fun.

So retards actually paid money for this huh

Yeah, if I play solo I just have to accept that every other match is gonna have a retard. It's kinda okay, I spot them doing some stupid shit 30 seconds in, just accept it's already lost and practice. Usually by changing to some hero I don't play a lot and try it out because at that time, fuck team composition.
It's hilarious when we win either way and there's snowrunes on the general chat.

Just like every other game, kill yourselves you fucking shills

nigga you've been in a thread for a game you supposedly hate for 2 days

Is your post supposed to have an argument attached with it or is it just conjecture unrelated with the post I made?

...

The game in its development phase

Focus on the backline as tracer as well and be a complete nuisance to supports/dps.

And learn to dash yet still keep your reticle on your target, while also learning what abilities can fuck you when facing an opponent and baiting it out with a dash.

It's a cool theory, but it's giving Blizzard way too much credit. Blizzard can't into abstraction, creativity, or subtlety. Mercy is exactly as you see her, and nothing more.

Sadly. I love me a good, well-thought-out villainess.

You have to be this retarded to buy overshit huh.

Does anyone have that image of faggots who bought this game desperately defending it, along with the desperate 'it's fun, they'll patch it, it's a beta' etc?

That was Paladindus I believe

her guns actually do a lot of damage, you can fire in their general direction and fuck their whole team up if they don't figure out where you are

Not saying her being the villainess is creative, abstract, or subtle; but Blizzard is married to their tropes, and they absolutely have to spoonfeed their audience everything. You know, in case they missed the obvious the first fifteen times.

Only a matter of time until Overwatch gets filled with >MUH CORRUPTION

...

i wonder how people can stand winston. as soon as a healer notices youre attacking somebody your sweet gorilla dreams of killing somebody are over.


how can they not figure that out though? her blink and guns are quite noisy. and once you learn the map you know where she isnt, so you know where she is.

Because they're fucking casual retards who play ASSFAGGOTS and MMOs all day.

AHAHAH No, nigga. He's being doing this since the game was still in Beta. Don't even try to argue with him, you can't hope to compete with that level of autism. He transcends us all.


I mean, that's pretty much what the story is shaping up to be with the Omniuns.


He still does damage over Zen's Orb and Lucio's passive while Ana and Mercy can shutdown his damage but not on multiple people. They also can't heal themselves that well and Harambe usually goes for the healers first anyway.

Human reaction plus looking around. Good Tracers don't stay for longer than 2 seconds so at best you'll catch a glimpse of her blinking. Even with the sound, she'll change position easily and then you'll be chasing her instead of helping your team.

Haha holy shit, 46ce85 is sperglord levels of salt. Out of all of the Overwatch threads, he's the one who actively posts in them. Probably a false flag faggot.

Why couldn't oasis be a level about the futuristic vegas?

Because do we really need yet another American map?

I'd much rather stomp shitskins in their own homes.

USA has 2 maps already. Although I wouldn't mind having another map based in an Overwatch location. I was expecting Antarctica to fill that need but it's too fucking small.

We need a map set in Australia. A Mad Max hellscape, maybe a junkyard with some shacks.

a flashy lit up place like vegas would have been perfect to introduce something like jump pads on. wouldnt necessarily have to be vegas. but i can see why youd suggest that.

Dad 76 is fun

post em

Why not make webms like 6cca62? See how triggered overcucks get.

Plus it would look cool with a darker nighttime level, with all the neon lights reflecting on the characters weapons/armor

The problem is, the game is going for environment and omnic crysis as themes. Vegas doesn't really touch either of those.
That's why you mostly have maps related to either the environment around the world or specific places related to the Omic Crysis.

I guess the 2 American maps kinda break the mold since we don't know who the VIP is and Canyon seems to be "we are just traveling by".


Because that requires owning the game and those that played it like it enough they aren't gonna do that.
It also requires those bugs and problems to still be present but they have already been patched.
Or it requires leeching of e-celeb videos to make funny webms to impress all your anonymous friends.

It's always funny watching retards like you pretend the bugs and patches from videos recorded just a few days ago have been patched.

...

I'm buying 100 more loot boxes because of this post.

I think I've made my point.

I'm going to waste a bunch of money being retarded because someone on the internet told me I was retarded! That'll show them!

Omnic Crisis a shit. Tell you what, give us a map on the fucking MOON with all the gorillas.

i want lolis

No Pat! No!


What do you think the jumppads are for? :^)
We're going home, baby gorilla.


Pick Dva and pretend you're Offense.

Suck my dick hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hohohohohohohohohohohhohohohohohohohohoho hihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihi

what the hell are you doing. i have better things to do right now

I was trying to trigger someone skilled enough to do it for me, because nothing bothers talented people more than seeing their abilities squandered.
Did it work? :^)

...

How do you let go, Holla Forums? How do you get past its abundant weaknesses and have fun?
I feel like the answer unfortunately is "It's fun with friends."

I'm sure Activision appreciates your 'loyalty' goy

...

It seems like you don't either. Believe me, I was on the 76 husbando train for a bit, but then shit just took a nosedive.

I was talking about chica

Why is absolutely everyone in this game completely repulsive?
Oh boy, you get to fuck the chunky white girl with hipster glasses in yellowface, the reddit-tier g4m3rgurl, the generic healer that won't ever take that lame halo headdress off, the edgy joke character, and Tracer's ruined by that lame-ass cockney accent.
Why though?

Cockney has been completely destroyed by mudslime invasion into London and is now dead so I'll take whatever I can get.

You'll take it up the ass to defend this garbage if the need arises

You're American, aren't you?

...

...

At least post decent porn.

cant stump the mercy

Swear on me mum m8s
I bet you hate the Welsh too

I want to bugger Tracer's Bip
Cob is best term for it though.

Here, have some more

I AM Welsh, m80. The valleys aren't perfect either, but that's how I roll. Not being funny but just because I don't like your trash plebian accent doesn't mean I don't have a taste for decent British accents.

And yet, this is nothing compared to ACTUALLY GOING TO THE OVERWATCH SUBREDDIT to copy posts from there and pasting them here as replies to unrelated posts.

Seek help.

What the fuck are you on about?

...

Consider that maybe you just don't like it?
I mean, take S.T.A.L.K.E.R. for instance. People who played it fall in two groups: folks who love it and folks who don't. You don't have to like ALL the videogames.
It's not even about the genre. I for one don't really like Supreme Comander, but love the first Dawn of War for instance.
Diferent games do diferent things to diferent people.
Surely you have a few games you love and even replay from time to time. Stick with those and don't cave to peer pressure into buying new shit.
I still think you should always try everything at least once. It will give you a reason to say "I don't like this" or "I like this".

Also, people who try to get other people to buy games are faggots. Not shills, just faggots. Buy shit you like, never buy things because someone told you it's a good idea.
If you like TF2, stick with it. It's a fun game despite all the flaws.

Oh you're the guy pushing the emperor statue's head as a metaphor for corruption or some silly nonsense like that.

You don't "get past it's abundant weaknesses", you get past this thread and go to other ones. If you don't like the art-style (and do keep in mind how subjective that is) and if the graphics alone are enough to deter you from trying the game (which is ironic) then there's nothing you can do. Either buy and play the game so you can feel miserable but "part of the culture" or just grow a pair and go play the games you like and ignore this one.

Let's get one thing straight: Activision did not play any role into the production of VTMB but being the editors at best. Those people tell you not to buy the game because not even one cent will make it to the original developers. You are not supporting the people that actually made the game if you buy it.
But Blizzard actually made Overwatch and when people tell you to buy it, it's because every penny you spend on it goes directly to them, the team that actually made the game they like.

You somehow mixed "supporting the Devs that make the games you like" with pure brand loyalty, as if that was an argument or some debatable point. If you so grossly misunderstood the entire point behind "pirate VTMB", then quit pretending you have some kind of moral high ground here, you're no different than idiots defending Nintendo because it's Nintendo, just the other side of the horseshoe


Before you reply to the shitposters, paste whatever you'd post to Cleverbot first, then compare. I garantee you'll have a more interesting, deep and informative conversation with a meme AI than with them.

Oh, you're a new shitposter in the thread?
Sorry to tell you buddy, the one's who came before were miles ahead of you. You got some very large shoes to fill if you wanna walk in their steps.

...

...

Company IP.
Now I gotta go find the other bloke who plays Overwatch in here too.
Bet we can talk about waifus at the watercooler like normalfags do :^)

But son, you are one

what? I just posted a reaction image of a blank stare surrounded by liquor. What the fuck are you on about?
But it isn't though. None of the playstyles look interesting, the community is even more cancerous than Undertale's, and if I'm going to play a shooter, I'd rather do one that isn't full of broken characters, auto aim and absurd hitboxes. It obviously appeals to a ton of people, and I can't escape it in my daily life. So rather than put up with this shit, I try to see why people like it rather than being cynical about it. Everything they show me never helps its case though, I keep seeing more and more problems. I don't get how trying to understand that makes me look desperate for trying to be with the 'in crowd' when it grows more and more apparent that people such as yourself are so vehemently ready to defend a plain old shit game. Why? The hell if I know. That's what I'm trying to figure out.
I completely see your point with what I said about VTMB and agree, but "if you don't like it just leave" is why people accuse you of being a drone.

go and stay go

Oh, apologies. There was a "funny memester" here on Holla Forums that posted pics of a roman emperor's statue after corrupting the image as a metaphor for something and expected the meme to pick up. It didn't because nobody understood what the pretentious prick meant.

Subjective. I love Mercy, being a focused healer but with good mobility, I like Torb\Symetra since I like building shit to help the game and Sombra is pretty cool too, excelent mobility and very usefull but very chalenging to be effective with. Dva is pretty cool too with good mobility and her Ult\Mech makes her very unique in how she plays. Zarya, despite the haircut, has a very unique and interesting kit that takes a while to get used to but really pays off.

Of course, this is just me. Other people will like other things or dislike with other things but that's hardly criticism about the game itself.


If you're actually serious, you did not went to those threads. And if you went, you're grossly exagerating. No character invokes the same kind of literal faggotry Asriel does.
And complaining about fanbases is retarded, you don't have to deal with any of them to enjoy a videogame. Seriously, stop being triggered by people you don't like liking things you like.

Then what are you doing in this thread? There's the Xonotic one, there's another for UT, there's always a Doom thread up as well and even for many other shooters too. You have so many choices on what you can play that will appeal to you coming here to complain that this option exists doesn't even make sense.

Also, let's not go with the "auto aim and absurd hitboxes" please, that has been debated to hell and back and serves no purpose.
Ultimately, it's gonna be an argument between people that play the game and people that base their arguments on memes and outdated videos because they don't actually care about that.

Of all the things normalfags do and talk about, Overwatch is the one bothering you. Now that's being entitled.

Every post you made up until now can be summed up as cynicism. You don't play the game nor have you any interest on it and yet you keep posting about all the things you don't like and all the problems you assume the game has.

I'm ready to talk about it with anyone, including those that dislike it, but I'm not interested in arguing with shitposters. You said you're trying not to be cynical and yet you describe it as "a plain old shit game" so I guess there's no point in talking with you anymore.

Oh so if someone doesn't like something, he should instead throw a bitchfit until everyone else changes to conform with their tastes?
That's why people accuse you of being "just like the SJWs".
Being a drone would only be valid if you presented objective and concrete reasons to hate and not play the game and yet everyone disregarded them and kept playing it. But so far it's outdated information and personal or subjective opinions being presented as to why everyone should stop playing it. Anyone is free to disregard them because those are basically "this game offends me".

Shit community, the game has heroes that are just basically there to see what they can do and how well it can work in a game. Like mercy's ult which needs to be fucking removed. The characters are basically what you see, they barely have any depth unless they are more than what hey are in the story side, I doubt that. But its characters are the funny kind of steriotypes in my eyes.

I'm just waiting for unga bunga spear man, or a korean that has close range only missiles.

But the gameplay is fun in a sense where every character has a set role, and each one works in a certain aspect and point in the game, with others countering/working together better than others which is where it shines. I wont say its better with friends, since games like fucking sonic '06 are better with friends. I think its fun to get good at some heroes and found out little things you can do to do well or better with them and what combos work best.

Theres 50 better games at least that do this and are still active


Christ, go back to cuckchan, you're not even subtle
I can't believe I read all of that fucking trash

Why? That thing never works as intended, you'll more often Rez a single person than that 5-man Rez.
Her staff makes her stand near her team the whole time, ready to be killed first or at the same time as everyone else, even when she stays as far back as possible (15 meters).
I'd get your point if GA didn't needed a target and Mercy could literally dodge everything going her way by flying out and then swooping in to undo any damage, but that's not what happens ever. Her ability is almost as underwhelming as Dad76 auto-aim, any support has a better Ult than she does.
Which is funny because those are 2 are the Ults considered to be most abused when they may as well be some of the worst.

Well, Doomfist is most likely gonna be African, so you're gonna get your Muhammad Ali.

I remenber starting a match in Volskaya on Attack as Ana and heading straight for the stairs on the right, going up. When I was in that balcony, I could see my team fighting theirs, heal them and hit the enemy team in the back for some confusing moments where they tried to understand what the fuck was happening.
We hadn't even touched the point and I already had 5 kills, it was pretty neat to be stealth sniper\healer with Ana.

all is well in Holla Forums

A mercy can stand around a corner, and crouch in the back and just dash to a dead body when the team is wiped. If you dont haev a dedicated person to deal with mercy. You're going to have a bad time.

I've had countless fucking games where a mercy is late/hiding in a fight. And when we all blow our loads on the team. They get right back up and fuck us. Shits just annoying. Mercy is the only character I hate gameplay wise really.

I hope not, I want a manly man Superior, not inferior. If anything they should make a Techies like hero that's from the Middle east. I would fucking love that.

techies is a hero from DOTA: Allstars where all he did was plant mines and suicide bomb. Shit was fun before Valve got the game

No, she really can't. Her beam has a very short range so you force your team to stay in the corner with you, inviting AoE to fuck everyone up, not to mention making no real progress. Even if you start healing and they cross the corner, you'll lose the beam in 3 seconds unless you follow them.

Take for instance King's Row at the beginning with those walls. Perfect spot for Mercy to stand near the walls and heal teammates on the gate, right?
Except that place is wide open to anyone on Defense, your team isn't gonna pass from that point if they stand there while you heal them and you'll be taken from behind in either side of the wall.

5-man Rez are rare as fuck because a Mercy being late for the party or away from her team is equally uncommon. Remenber that she can GA to get back to her team much faster and she won't be roaming for healthpacks. She will ALWAYS be near her team.

We already have Techies, though. Junkrat feels the niche very well and he kinda looks like a goblin too, just missing the green skin.

This is the kind of post I was looking for. Basically saying 'yeah it has problems, but I like finding what class you're good at, and how you can use your talents to benefit the team.' I can understand that, there are some games I love like that. Battlefront was my favorite class based shooter, and I did play a lot of TF2 a while back before the Mannconomy ruined everything.

Honestly Battlefront was the most fun I've had with that exact type of game he described. But what other types of games described? I don't play much multiplayer online games, but that description was so easily generalized that it could describe just about anything. Any class-based team shooter really.

And there's this faggot.
Not even trying
Rather than address the issues, nice job resorting to separatism. Gotta keep those triggering anons in their place.
Why would I want that if I'm here asking why people like certain things, voice a few simple aesthetic complaints, and bringing up concerns I have with the gameplay in efforts to understand the game a bit more, and eventually play it with my friends?

So you're admitting you and the rest of the saging redditfags are shitposters?

Also
>13% of the thread is one retard who thinks sage is a downvote, who memeslings, and who has been spamming these threads more than '4 MONTHS now

whoops, I don't know what I was doing there. I guess what I meant to say is in response to "there are 50 better games at least that do this and are still active," what are some of those games? I could do with some good recommendations.

You're not allowed to take online what happens IRL to you. That's your personal life, deal with your normalfag friends on your own.

So far, the only issues you pointed was how you don't like the art-style or the characters and there's nothing to discuss there, that's your opinion, and "auto-aim or bad hitboxes" which has been already discussed to death.
If you want to discuss actual issues, be my guest and post them. But if you just want to repeat the same thing as if it was brand new or complain about personal preferences, please do take it to another thread that actually pleases you.

Most of your post seems to be ranting about the game and how you're constantly spammed about it. Sounds like you don't want to like it, merely how to cope with the fact that it's popular.

You mean blog post about your opinion. Sure, share away, dunno why you think it matters, but why not?

Which you have yet to do? I mean, you picked the most spammed ones which kinda makes you sound like yet another shitposter, but if you have any specific problem with the game you want to hear about, please ask.

I hope you're talking about BF2

Also I got a video im splicing together of just POTG's so I dont know if anyone will want to see what is considered "POTG".

Yeah, Battlefront 2. I keep forgetting I have to clarify now. Also go ahead, I'll look at it.

That's a shitty response to someone who's new and hasn't been here to see it get allegedly beaten into the ground.
Who makes up these rules? Oh yeah, you.
How did I give no criticisms when you said the criticisms I brought up were discussed to death?
you tell me, you're the one spending the most time talking to me, and still adding the least constructively. It seems to have got your attention unfortunately.

It's pretty much known they are chosen by an algorythm and it's parameters are somewhat known as well.
Still, some POTG do highlight funny stuff or good plays, so go ahead.

If you're being genuine here, then I guess I can repeat what's the overall conclusion it seems to have emerged here.

There's only a single character with "auto-aim", Soldier 76. It's not a regular ability, rather it's his Ultimate that needs to be charged first like everyone else.
It lasts for about 6 seconds or so and during this time, anyone if front of him will be automatically targeted and every shot will connect. He also gets a near instantaneous reload (and I never confirmed if his rockets auto-aim too).

This sounds pretty much like cheating at first and very casual but ironically most Overwatch players don't much care about that Ulti and it's considered very underwhelming.
For starters, you can't headshot with it, and you don't get any boost to your damage. This means that 2 Soldiers facing each other could have the non-Ulti one winning the engagement if he hits the other guy's head instead. Secondly, like all Ultis, it has a very distinctive call sign that the enemy team heres and at that moment, they go for cover. If you try to chase them, you'll overextend and will be murdered easily.

This makes this ability something that will catch one person only most time and very rarely more if you know when to pop it. It's used mostly to keep pressure or to keep your damage consistent but the better you can aim, the less usefull it actually is.


The hitboxes are something often mentioned but it's only relevant and only discussed because of two specific characters: Roadhog and Hanzo.
Roadhog has a hook that can grab people and put them in from of him for an easy kill while Hanzo is essentially the Lucksman from TF2, with log-sized arrows.
Roadhog is infamous for how much bullshit his hook his, that can land on you before you ducked behind cover and still pull you or easily catch you even if it lands only near you. Hanzo's arrows also seem to be much larger than their view model in terms of collision.

Now, when talking about Collision Boxes, there's something that needs to be decided first. What exactly do you want? Realistic Hitboxes or Balanced Hitboxes?
Hanzo had his arrows nerfed massively when the hitboxes where corrected and people found out that he was much harder to use for very little benefit compared to Widowmaker or Soldier. He felt horribly underpowered. So the hitboxes of his arrows (and many other details surrounding them like charge rate and move speed) where changed overtime until he reached a point where playing with him isn't as bullshit as before but it still feels rewarding and not gimping yourself.
And despite his bullshit arrows or his furry Ulti, Hanzo isn't even picked that much. That's how much "broken" he is, that most players prefer other more reliable characters.

Roadhog had a similar problem with his hook that was too easy to land at first, then too hard, then somewhat balanced and then some other stuff was fixed like what position people were dragged in, what distance did they landed after being dragged, etc. Those changes were never taken into account to make his ability to target people with the hook realistic, they were made so he was still viable but not OP.

And fundamentally, that's the design they went with collision boxes FOR PROJECTILES, by the way. The characters still have good hitboxes, you can shoot inbetween their legs for instance. Ana is another example that's never mentioned because even the shitposters know very well she only gets larger hitboxes on her bullets when targeting allies.

If you have any other doubt or issue you'd like cleared, do say so. I'm sure someone will be able to answer you.

Only because you can actually articulate a few words into coherent sentences.
But seriously, leave IRL stuff at the door. It never does anything for your post unless it's a greentext story.

I play a shit ton and they are not as rare as you think. also mercy's dash range is a pretty decent range so she can stand fairly far back and be safe. And if she has taken damage she can just stand back for 1 1/2 seconds and bam full health.

Heres the video, my recording shit broke for some reason so I only got a few of them, and had to use them to only see mine, sadly.

But her beam isn't and you'll spend most of your time beaming people or you're not being very usefull. This means you'll be near the action very, very often, putting you at risk with no escape.
She can "stand back" but she'll be walking while other Supports have different ways to handle things.

Techies is in DotA 2 as well, user.

Your post is good but you completely miss a big point about Roadhog's hook: it's based on client side hit detection like every other hit check in the game and thus is more favorable towards a Roadhog with the better Internet. This, and how questionable the way the hook works in the first place, is why you sometimes get the hooks through walls and barriers.
Ana is mentioned seldomly because her Q doesn't let you aim yourself, which could increase her risk/reward due to a bad shot hitting an enemy and you now having to deal with a boosted enemy. That is a legitimate complaint.

But its not the same

No hit check is ever done client side, that simply cannot be true. There's a video the devs made explaining how the connection works and it's an authoritative server where all calculations happen server-side. The Roadhog with better internet does have an advantage but it's not a significant one unless everyone else has terrible internet.

What might be happening there is that abilities similar to his are given preferencial treatment by the server when two conflicting messages arrive there within a small margin of time. So if you shot at him and killed him but he hooked at the same time, the hook takes priority and you never shot him.
However, "survival skills" are also given a priority on top of this so if a Tracer Blinks and Roadhog Hooks at the same time, Tracer will be given priority and dodge it.

I mean, I sure as fuck hope you don't have any proof that it's client side detection (which might still happen for cosmetic reasons only) because that'd imply hackers wouldn't even need to leave spawn to kill people or they could simply avoid any and all damage.

It would increase her risk but I fail to see how that increases her reward. It would just make Zenyatta and Lucio seem better choices instead, since Lucio can't Barrier enemies and Zen can't heal enemies.

But he's basically identical, and even has some buffs.

rip skeltal king ;_;7

HA, hardly.

archive.is/VBlG3
And who do you think were the ones crying about getting banned for hacking a few months back?

Well now that was pretty stupid. With some severe tinkering, you could in theory ignore even walls to hit people, as well as damage falloff.
Blizzard must have some very strong and agressive measure going on to detect this shit because no way are they gonna trust the client with this stuff without carefully monitoring what goes in their PC.
I guess that explains why most hacks are caught and handled so fast.

It's great that this containment thread is getting less posts with every new thread, and only a handful of autists desperately defending this piece of shit remain.

Keep up the good work anons, the day these retards fuck off from Holla Forums is near.

Because we're playing overwatch and occasionally posting in it. This happens every thread.

Right, because it took this long to hit 300 posts and had this few UIDs earlier.

Autistic, retarded, and a liar. Should probably just kill yourself and do your parents a favor.

Nice VPN.

Nice VPN, fascinating the lengths you retards would go to defend this piece of shit. Hope you're paid to be this pathetic.

You both should know better than to argue with the guy that considers shitposting a "good job". Who knows, maybe this is indeed his job.

Then there's this retard

Alright, sure, have an OC. Anything to stem the tide.

LoL.

I purpose importing this template to both educate on-lookers, and LAUGH at pubbies.

Because if the devs are not retards there will still be places only easily reachable by those skills and the jump pads will only be in some places to spice up the game and make the level different to the others

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT ISN'T INTERESTING?
This fucking game.

...

These threads have devolved into complete cancer. There is practically zero discussion of the actual game.
No one even attempts to play the game together, it's just jerking off to waifu's, larping and posting tumblr memes.
It's cuckchan /vg/ tier garbage.

I think its time for Mark to axe it.

Theres like 2 autists and some (1) Redditors

If only

Have you ever considered it's because the spammers, who made up most of the posts in threads before, are slowly giving up and are getting deleted/banned most of the time? Also


Then what was:

This is the kind of faggot that bought and plays this game. Do you want these kinds of retards to browse and post on Holla Forums with you? I sure don't.

Then there's this retard

I love to play Mercy and laugh at the enemy Winston's impotence.

Also sage isn't a downvote, and people will just bump the thread every time you sage.

Uh, no, I said it did have client side hit detection, someone else didn't think that. Learn how to read IDs, newfag.

Sorry I mixed up one retard with another

At least you got seven posts in this thread sort of related to this piece of shit huh

They're the most passive agressive Tumblrcunts I have ever seen
likelybecause I wasn't on th Undertale ones

And at least you have 2 shitposts that aren't related to this thread.

How much are you being paid to shitpost, Pajeet?

I fucking wish

I just cant wait to play as McCree and get a full team wipe when getting on one of the pads, that's one of his only shortcomings. Is that he has an ult for ganking, yet its really hard for him to do so.

I just hope they fix the fact that his right click is only good to kill tanks, yet they constantly say that is NOT what they want. Its the whole reason hey nerfed his tank killing powers. Hopefully he at least gets his kit looked at after symmetra is done.

Finnaly finished one. This takes effort, fuck.


Fun fact: he's not really concerned about how well these threads go. The entire point is to manufacture some controversy and drama so the mods that don't frequent the thread assume it's all the thread is about and axe it.

There was a very pathetic attempt at a flame war between the Paladins and Overwatch threads that failed horribly (because they overlap a lot and shitposters don't understand not having brand loyalty) and you should expect more strange attempts at making the thread look like drama and shitposting just so they have an excuse to demand it be deleted. This includes as well sliding the discussion into meta bullshit on moderation or shitposting and board culture (they really miss /metav/ I guess)

Even more fun fact: you thwart all their efforts by simply talking about the game and filtering them.


Check his name. He's the same autist that kept going back to the Undertale to spam it until it was deleted. He actually thinks he played a pivotal role in ending those threads and feels like it's his duty to do the same with Overwatch. Just filter him, any reply to him will just prompt a reply of his own, further shitposting the thread.


Zarya's pretty great, not a fan of her haircut (I don't think anyone is) but her kit is amazing and her gun really versatile.

You can FtH in close range against most regular characters for an easy kill, though. Especially after a flashbang, that's what it's intended to do.
You can also flank with him quite easily since the only people going by flank paths tend to be the people you counter.

Now this is autism

I realize that, but its difficult due to the frame of most heroes that you should be one shotting, and the spray is pretty wild unless all you see on your screen is there character. Not to mention shit like genji hopping around is invincible to the flash bang because by the time he hits the ground ready for FtH he dashes with the power of japan and shits on you.

Russian Olympic Skin master race literally

Also, a reminder that OP has two fucking posts on a near 3 day old thread.

Except this game is your standard run of the mill multiplayer shooter while Undertale is actually pretentious autistic cancer so I'm not sure what the connection is for him

Yes it is autism, especially since you actually believe you think any of your posts are going to make Overwatch discussion end here on Holla Forums. Here's a bump since I know you're fuming~

And your point, autist?

Eh, I dunno. Pretty different from most other shooters. Honestly, Battlefield or Xonotic are more close to be "run of the mill multiplayer shooter" since both are just another iteraction of their particular genre with very little changes to them.
Not making a comment on their quality, though

They are both popular, and that simply cannot be. Or they feature something other than heterosexual members of the Aryan race. I dunno either, the popularity seems to be the best explanation since he seems to care so much about what tumblr and reddit thinks, but at the end it's still autism. It doesn't really need to make sense.

Go back to masturbating to Tracers fake cockney accent you cuckhold.
If you really can't see how fucking bad these threads are getting you must be extremely fucking new here.


No, but they add to the bumplimit and take this cancer out of the top of the catalog and to the depths where you fags won't discuss this trash since you're attention whores straigjt from Tumblr.


STRAIGHT OUTTA CUCKCHAN

It's anti-autism autism. The more autistic a video game or fans of a video game are the more autistic people get about attacking or chronicling the perceived autism. See Chris-chan as an example: his extreme autism has led to a decade plus of his online and offline life being chronicled across various websites by only a few hundred or so individuals who only do it because it entertains them. All of that for one really autistic manchild.

what an amateur

bump

Gets worse every day


You have to be at least 18 to post here

It's just as autistic.

It's "run of the mill", not "straight of the mill". Learn English, Pajeet.

Oh so it's essentially the same thing as Steven Univese, that has a fandom dedicated to hating their fandom. Fun stuff.
This is why I no longer care about furries anymore, they mostly stick to their corners and barely spam their shit and even if they are still embarassing sad fucks most of the time, some of the art they make is still cute. In a way, they were kinda housebroken.
And at this point, the anti-furries mostly exhibit the same traits furries used to exhibit when they were mocked and persecuted. No self-awareness, constant spam and derailment, a sense of self-righteousness that overrides everything and even victimization most of the time.
We have reached a period in time where some people are more autistic about what they hate then the things they claim to hate. All the while forgetting the old adage "what you hate controls you".


Xonotic is a run of the mill shooter in the genre of Quake though. Not saying it's bad, it's quite good actually but it doesn't really do that much different than Quake did to really differenciate it that much, just like Warsow and pretty much any other "old school" arena FPS, of which there are several available, each more similar to Quake than the previous one.

Fucking bullshit, giving players the ability to flank objectives and not just run down chokepoints every map would upset the console kiddies too much

...

...

...

...

...

...

Please stop being retarded, just kill yourself

Except it didn't. Prove it did.
Well yeah it would considering Overwatch still has hundreds of thousands of active players, iirc.
Nah

...

The onus is on you faggot

Is the scale TF2 is the same as Overwatch? Like a step in TF2 equals a step in Overwatch? You have to be more scientific than just a side by side comparison, user.

Same FOV, same scale, Heavy is still faster

Report/Filter is your friend user.

Alright

...

...

Fastest class isn't tracer, I think it's Lucio, but still. Found Reddit thread with character speeds in m/s, and valve wiki with units in hammer units.
When the calculations are done, heavy moves at 4.385 m/s, and Tracer moves at 6 m/s.
Scout moves faster than any passive class in overwatch. The closest equivalent to Tracer's speed would be Medic or Spy.

reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/4ajmq5/hero_movement_speeds_plus_a_few_more/#bottom-comments

developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/TF2/Team_Fortress_2_Mapper's_Reference

developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Dimensions

Thank you, user, I figured something was off.

bind ult to a mouse side button for tracer

No problem, my autism compels me.

t. converted free weekender

Someone's mad?

Yep, Someone's mad

HEY PEOPLE, SOMEONE'S MAD!

Why is it always those webms have that green line under them? Is it all from the same autist or a bunch of people who don't know how to render video properly?

Not that it matters, since a tracer that would move as fast as a scout would be the hardest thing to kill, adding to her blinks, rewind.

To be fair that would make the game more fun. The game does need more speed in general.

Prove it, video on my screen shows differently

i made a thing howd i do

But then the console kiddies would cry that they can't hit shit and its not fun

Isn't the console version of the game already different? Like I remember some weapon damages and other extraneous stuff aren't the same as the PC version. Just let the console kiddies have their kiddie version.

I would play with you guys but you all are shitters and I'm trying to leave gold. Plus, I only play some evenings due to wagecuckery.

I play lucio sometimes for that reason, if you play him on hanamura on offense, you can get over the fence to the right side if you are good at wall hopping.

But yeah, hopefully they do add more speed, and more heroes that rely on advanced movement. I hate it when games remove shit like bunnyhopping. It ruins the game. Sombra was a good start, but its only when invis/animation cancelling


I think thats another main problem. At least they balance PC and Consoles seperatly, so they are not totally idiots.

...

Why doesn't tracer die when hit?

I've unloaded entire clips of Soldier 76's gun up her ass and 80% of them are making the hit ping sounds and she still doesn't die

I got those numbers from Valve's wiki, user.
If you believe that you can judge speed accurately from that video than more power to you.

My Math:
Heavy Speed (forwards) = 230 Hammer Units / second
1 Hammer Unit = 19.05 mm
230 hu/s * 19.055mm/hu = 4382.65 mm/s
4382.65 mm/s / 1000 mm/m = ~ 4.383 m/s

You're aiming at her ass and not her head.

A hammer unit means fucking nothing unless both games use hammer units

I dunno what it is, some fucking reason her and Symettra tons of my hits don't register as damage, only happens when there's massive firefights going on, one on one its no issue

Lucio healing, she used her rewind, or since your soldier, your damage falloff is pretty high if she was far enough.

That's why I convert to meters. The player in the reddit thread asserted that he measured distance using demarcated meter-lines on the shooting range in the traning map and timing it.

i have to wonder if originally she did move faster but considered it broken.


im honestly not sure why that looks faster to you.


she should drop pretty damn fast, its possible she had torbjorn armor on with a symmetra shield. that can be a nightmare of a tracer or genji to deal with.

if his gun was in her ass shes going to die in less than a second.

...

...

...

It's not that difficult to make the case that Overwatch is a bad game. No need to resort to bullshit.

So you don't know shit and felt the need to comment anyway
Too obvious

That's what gets me with this constant tirade this guy seems to post in every thread. There's so many other arguments to make besides bugs. Like the focus on team composition and cooperation turns it into too much like rock paper scissors.


nice projection.

To be honest I don't think those are custom games. But he's also a faggot for thinking that finding places to clip through due to weird geometry and collision detection combinations, figuring out how to glitch ultimate activations like Lucio's, etc. equals Overwatch being an irredeemable pile of shit that shouldn't be allowed to be discussed on Holla Forums ever. Is every 3D game ever made now shit because you can accomplish the same things in those games?

Goddamn stop talking about video games you faggots and just post porn.

>>>/vp/

Friendly reminder that if you want to bumplock overwatch threads, just bump them.

bump

No one cares about your dead gay board.


If only.

...

...

huh, really makes you think

They aren't actually interested in r34 of the game, they just want the thread plastered with it so it seems "degenerate" and "mods, remove this thread, it's nothing but porn!"


You do know people can just make another one after this one is over, right?
This isn't Reddit where you can censor posts with downvotes.

You realize reddit's hivemind would actually PREFER overwatch, right? You're basically directing the argument at yourself.
I do agree though. If threads weren't varied, Holla Forums would become a circlejerk fucking QUICK.

Very ironic.

Those were custom games.

The fact that overwatch threads are this popular on Holla Forums further proves the old userbase is slowly leaving, and being replaced by under age faggots, cuckchan transplants, and Reddit users. Imagine going on Holla Forums, and seeing a thread on how based Buzzfeed is, and a large number of people are unironically supporting such blatant bullshit.

Same thing happened back on 4chan, it's just the way anonymous boards work.

What's different with 8ch is how much faggotry it's accruing in such a short period of time. Other than overwatch threads I even see unironic eceleb threads time to time.

I understand your concerns, but can you explain why you feel that way about Overwatch?

Would you have the same opinions of the game if it was made by a small indie company and the game had a small userbase?
I feel like a lot of this hatred towards the game is because its made by blizzard, even though Jeff Kaplan has done pretty much everything right.

>if you like overwatch odds are you are underaged, cuckchanners, or redditors I am seriously concerned rather or not 4chan will go down and a massive exodus will happen here. Resulting in bait threads and template threads nonstop.
I doubt it will happen though, considering there are already people bidding money for it, unless they do some really retarded

The old userbase is still here. We just ignroe the threads because we're not autistic faggots.

nice

Imagine if a bunch of cucks that fell for moot's shitty excuse of a politics board decided to bring it over to a new image board, and ended up as that site's Holla Forums.

Congratulations, you failed Basic Logic 101
It proves there's a new userbase that enjoys talking about the game or a change in the old userbase that now enjoy talking about it or both.

The old userbase could be around and just not talk about it. And considering there are still many threads about Doom, Xonotic and many other good games, I'd bet they are still around, they just don't bother with a thread about a game they have no interest in because they grew up. It's part of getting old, you'll get there one day.


It's some sort of twisted brand loyalty, except instead of defending it, they attack it. It doesn't matter what the company does anymore, it's the designated vessel for hatred and you'll shitpost about it or else.

Forget about "judging things on their own merit", if it has a logo of a company the hivemind agreed to hate, you must bash it.
You even had that other user that thought people who tell you to pirate VTMB are hypocrites for telling you to buy Overwatch because it was a "us vs Activision" and "us bs Blizzard" thing for him.
At least he acknowledged the mistake when it was explained, wish more people had the balls to do the same.

You have to be this retarded to buy overwatch

Just hide the threads that bother you and bump ones you deem more worth attention, you stupid nigger.

How does that even work? People don't even use mics at this rating so I can't hear them bitch.

people always underestimate how much damage that pistol does

i feel like it used to have a lower rate of fire but the same dps. like that god awful rail pistol from tfc but not horrible. i specifically remember killing tracers in 2 headshots. have i lost my marbles?

When has this ever worked?

It's actually a better version of D.va's pistol. More damage at a slightly lower rate of fire, but if you land head shots it'll take down most targets.

Why do you want it to go away? Are you this autistic over people discussing a video game?

The old userbase is 90% gone now for shitting on awful threads and being banned accordingly.

Subhumans aren't people

...

Didn't Kaplan leave? Also I've never touched a Blizzard game before Overwatch.

People ignored Evolved and it went way. They paid more attention to the porn than the game.
People here also ignored Fallout 4 and besides a few threads when it launched, you don't have more of them.
Undertale also lasted it's course and when most people started ignoring it, it went down in quality and eventually faded away. All the posting that overflew from that thread disappeared as soon as interest in the game waned, it was pretty much self contained.
Denuvo games are also ignored by most people, nobody talks about them and they end up being flops because nobody even talks about how good or bad the game is, nobody cares.

Meanwhile, please do tell when has "if you bitch about it, it will go away" ever worked.
Because there's still plenty of threads on Holla Forums discussing a lot of shitty games or shitty things in the industry because people still want to bitch about them, making yet another thread about those things.
Or how Toddposting became a thing because bitching about Fallout was such a riveting tale and nobody could stop doing it, creating even more cancer.

No, and he never will just like all the biggest kikes on that shitty company
You know those ASSFAGGOTS you played and still play before buying this trash?
Those were custom mods for Warcraft 3.
Go play Diablo you nigger

I've never played an ASSFAGGOTS
Diablo is shit.

t.cuckchan newfag

I thought you never played a Blizzard game before this one suhuman.

Say that to my skeletons and not on Hell, fuckface.

What is this atrociously ugly creature?

I haven't, how did anything I say indicate I have played a Blizzard game before Overwatch?

...

Fuck, forgot my downvote

I hate when people doesn't understand something but still make up their stuff into it. One fucking time only not autistic just cancerous e-sport got any spotlight and it is turned into pro-gamer PCmasterrace bullshit.

holy shit, they had good graphics back then!

Too bad toss was already bullshit.

People call games they've never played shit, welcome to Holla Forums.

That's mostly due to her overuse of "gamer lingo".

Wait, Dewritos isn't exclusive to the PC. Both onsole peasants and PC nobility can partake in the most noble feast.
It's the one thing that unites us, our quest for diabetes

Oh well you are right. I just associated PCmasterrace with absolute cancer and dragged them here unfairly.

post widowmaker pls

Must suck for you.
Except those aren't comparable at all, except for the fact that you don't like both those things. Buzzfeed sucks for entirely different reasons than Overwatch. Buzzfeed journalists never have to try, and their only clear aim is to broadly appeal to suckers for the biggest financial return. Journalistic integrity be damned. Overwatch on the other hand is getting shit-tier publishers like Activision and EA to rethink their scams like season passes and overpriced cosmetic DLC. Not only is Overwatch doing this themselves, they're actually serving as a warning to other publishers to fix their shit if they want to survive.
I still never got the "cuckchan transplants" complaint, since that's where the overwhelming majority of us came from. the exodus. That's why people even fucking come here. Because moot destroyed everything and then bailed. It was nice, those few weeks where people were talking about video games, until Hotwheels killed this place with "Too hardcore for 4chan," then came elitist shitposters that wanted to place themselves above everyone else based on website loyalty. Kind of like you.

The only thing Overwatch achieved is showing retards like you will lap up whatever blizzard shits out

Sorry I took so long to respond. Thanks for taking the time to type all that. This is what I was looking for, I appreciate it.
I did like the concept of ults, it reminds me of "Right behind you" in tf2. That moment of "Nigga I hope you saved a miracle or else you're gonna die."
Roadhog's hook is a bit ridiculous, though I understand why it's so wack since Overwatch has a lot of verticality. The upside is not many people play Roadhog at least.
I hear my gf complain about Hanzo all the time, I figured he was like Cuntsman users in TF2, with a dash of weeaboo, and are generally uncooperative.
All I hear about are how there's always a few needless Hanzo players. It's not Team Sniper-tier thank God, but there is a lot of Hanzo bullshit from what I see. The downside is also the upside, that they're generally not very useful, and people aren't encouraged to pick them as much unless they really need to based on their current job. Still doesn't stop people from sometimes picking them and doing fuck all though.
I never had much beef with Soldier really. His fanbase is cancer, but that's a separate issue. there are 4 ways you can dislike an overwatch character
How they play,
Their in-game characterization
Their fan characterization
The general personality of their playerbase, particularly in competitive
Again, not really an issue, just a general observation. It varies per character.
Neat
Thanks for sticking out this long, you did actually help address my concerns with Overwatch. Everyone's trying to get me to play on a free weekend to try it out. I would if I didn't have a toaster.

Anti-autism autism is a wonderful thing. Shine on, you crazy diamond.

nah

Not exactly, at upper levels he's often picked by good players that understand his true role: Ult Battery. He can take a lot of damage before dying that just helps his own team charge the Healers Ult and he can even charge his with self-heal, plus he has the best kill potential of all tanks, with the exception of Zaria, but she needs carefull preparing.

Used to be like that and still is on lower brackets. I guess I can't be that bad if I already left that stage. Sometimes there's still Hanzo's showing up but they're the ones that actually can aim and become actually usefull.
On lower tiers they are hated not because of how bullshit OP they are but because the player most likely chose them due to "it's like my japanese anime!" but you also get the same thing with Genji.

I actually like how each one of them plays, even Hanzo. But since they all have different playstyles, it's normal that they don't all appeal to everyone.

Valid point, some characters have a bit of a weak characterization, like Lucio.

This however I don't think is valid. Some fans draw Junkrat as a tranny, with post-op scar and everything. It's something truly terryfing and yet I can't think about any of that everytime I play with him. He's an hilarious character that always makes me laugh even when I lose and no amount of fan art is gonna change that.

Oh fuck, I get what you mean with this. I don't think it's fair to blame the characters for how some players use them, but I do understand your anger.
I bloody hate Genjis and Hanzos since they can't play in a team at all and Tracer players tend to be the same but somehow even more vocal.
McCree players are cunts, pure and simple, all they do is keep their distance getting potshots at everyone because they're cunts and going into tight narrow spaces to fuck up squishy high mobility heroes because they are cunts.

Like I said, only doing it because you can at least string sentences together.

Not to pressure you into buying it but one of the points in favour of the game is how well it runs even on toasters. You gotta remenber that it's Blizzard, who sells games to Koreans aka Toasterville, that made the game. You can drop the graphics a fair amount and get good performance unless you trully have a toaster.
But seriously, watch a few videos on youtube or play on your friend's computers first. You really don't want to buy a game before trying for yourself first, lots of people tried it expecting Dota of all things and were disapointed.

I never told you to stop. I'm actively encouraging you. and I'll still do it. Keep reading it how you want to read it, it's funny. You're harmless.

Whoa there.
The real cunts are Pharah Players, especially the "good" ones.

At least Pharah's CC gives you some air time instead of being a middle finger up your ass and leading your shots takes more skill than just aiming.
She ain't as much of a cunt as McCree.

Oh but those guys are the worst. Essentially the same as Genji\Hanzo mains except they think they're superior and pro players because they aren't picking Tracer or Soldier.

Wait what do you mean Soldier, are you saying that because people think hes easier so they dont want to play him? Because he just got buffed and is good right now. the meta is 3 tanks, soldier, ana and zenyatta I thought.

He is a good character, but he's the "default one", that's why he's what you use during the tutorial.
Lots of players disregard him or consider him a bad character because of that. They don't complain about how useless he is but rather how generic and simple it is to play with him.
Which is bullshit anyway.

Where's the damage? Where's the bloody damage? Soldier is nice but I don't see that as bit nearly enough to wipe a team, how are you gonna clear points with 3 tanks that will keep Ana and Zenyatta busy healing them?
Not to mention that it sounds like a composition very vulnerable to Tracer\Sombra\Reaper showing up from behind and killing the Supports, at which point everyone else will melt fast.

You need more damage than that for attack and some Defense for defense.

Dva and zarya do alot of damage, dva especially up close. Not to mention that you can stop alot of damage with the added reinhardt as well. And if you're a good ana you can sleep dart any gankers and a dva can knock them back since they should always be together.

Dva's ult and zarya synergize pretty well. Remember that D.va's weapon is basically a shotgun.

Been feeling this on a spiritual level for the last couple of days

All the tanks have really respectable damage, and Zen's discord orb is really fucking stupid.

I am a bit surprised Soldier is on that list instead of McRee, since he's got great damage if he hits headshots and flashbang to shutdown ults.

Check 'em.

Feel free to use these.
