Overwatch Beta Discussion Thread
Beta's almost over, in just two days. You can still try it and see by yourself just how bad\good this trainwreck\masterpiece really is, instead of relying on the opinions of shills\valvedrones.
Porn is apreciated but let's try to keep the discussion focused on why some characters are clearly too overpowered and require nerfs post-haste because it's too hard to dodge their Ultis.

Dva UP
Mercy Suffering

I was told this could run on older machines.
I underestimated how UGLY it would look.
THE ROOFS, THEY ARE MADE OF ICE.
Seriously, why can I jump around everywhere as half the classes but cant stand on a slightly slanted room to gain a tactical advantage?
Fuck off and never come back, kid.
I'm surprised it runs so smoothly on my toaster.
Makes it heat up like the fucking dickens though.
No clue, but you can do some sick ass tribes-esque surfing on them if you land on a downslope with pharah. There's one particular roof on one of the Tibet sections where you can do the boost jump from spawn and slide down and ramp off the backside of the roof to get to the point really fast.

Mercy is a Lucio that can't reach people in time because there's always a wall between you and them, so you just end up watching them die in the distance.
It's also a Zenyatta that can't fight for shit.
But it's pretty neat when you get teammates to spread all over a large area but still visible to you. I'll usually stay bottom and at the first sign of trouble, fly up to a balcony with the Widowmaker.
Check the Options menu, in the Advanced Setting for the "Render Scale" or something similar. You can try to lower the resolution and increase that thing, it helps a lot for aspect.
Probably because there's no way to reach those places as many different classes or to prevent Pharah or Widowmaker or similar people from standing in relative safety spamming down…
But it's pretty annoying, yeah. There's a ton of coolspots to stick around as Hanzo or Widow that you can't use because of that. I hope they change that.
