So can anyone explain to me exactly what's wrong with Overwatch? It's an above average game, so how come it gets so much hate here? Is it because it's similar to tf2, and grew popular because of waifus and Blizzard fanboys? If anything, the game's only semblance to tf2 is that it's class based.

Fucking shill, I'm going to porn my dump in this thread right now.

Looks like someone hasn't played the game.

...

It's a multiplayer shooter.

ever noticed all the popular games were spawned by blizzard also creates a lot of clones

You don't understand the reason a lot of people post here.

You should google "contrarian".

I don't have a problem with it besides the everyone wins attitude, trying to obscure stuff like K/D and score so that people won't get offended and some of the rules for the modes like sudden death. I still play it and like it more than most multiplayer shooters.

A pretty well done multiplayer shooter, your point?

This is going to get deleted. Overwatch may have a "general" now, but it's definitely still being treated like a containment thread. Game's okay, probably a lot better with friends. I got sick of playing solo after about 2 weeks and now I barely play it anymore. My biggest criticism is the characters are all fucking obnoxious, even outside the realm of gameplay. OP can't inb4, porn dumpers are faggots though.

What happened to that rule about no more than one Overwatch thread at a time?

Dumbed Down TF2 With Moba Elements. There's your answer, now fuck off.

It's still you killing the same characters with the same weapons on the same maps over and over.

There is literally no substance to it.

Wrong

It's a TF2 knockoff, which doesn't make it a bad game but TF2 is simply better.
It's fun to play Overwatch for a bit and try out these wacky characters and their abilities, but then you realize that there's no reason to play a game with less depth

Stop caring about what other people think. Caring about what Holla Forums thinks is even worse.

I don't think that is so "everyone wins". There are no deathmatch style fights. You're K/D is irrelevant and right now because of 3rd party sites that track this data, you have people throwing matches because they don't want to ruin their K/D.

It's fucking infuriating since there are parts of a match where it is deliberately designed to throw yourself into the meat grinder. Or zones designed to be taken if your whole team goes into it together. But people don't want to lose their standing on a ladder so they will hang back and cause you to lose the match.

Fuck you and fuck whoever bought this piece of shit game. The only GOOD thing it did was how polished it looks, making everyone want to see a pixar movie. The waifus are fucking SHIT but people are fucking thirsty.

I don't see why I would play it over TF2

I'd play it if it had some sort of progression system and if I had friends to play it with.
D.Va a cute.

Better characters, not to mention that tf2 looks like a shitpit with all the cosmetics fucking everything up. At least Overwatch has a consistent style right now.

Are we getting raided? It might just be cause its summer but the amount of people posting shit like "Holla Forums is contrarion" trying to defend this game is worrying me.

It has a progression system but all you get when you level up is a crate with random cosmetics

TF2 requires skills.

...

It's just people feeling a guilty pleasure because their friends on Holla Forums keep bashing their current favourite game, so they have to make threads to justify themself.

...

It doesn't seem like it's an offensively bad game. It seems like it's just another shallow, slow multiplayer game with a very low skill ceiling, very bland level design, and superfluous content being in place of meaningful content.

But all of these things combined with it being a multiplayer title just means I don't care about it. I don't care about peoples stories with it, I don't care about the art, the porn, the characters, the game in any way. I don't even want to see it, it's just boring as hell for me. It's just such a "safe" game, it pushes no boundaries and does nothing exceptional. I don't got time for that.

Especially yet another fucking multiplayer game. Fuck multiplayer, biggest casual filter in my life.

...

Not a single fucking character in overshit has charm, all the charm in overshit are fanmade with fucking fanart like gremlin D Va or porn of Mei.
Meanwhile we have in TF2 all characters with different personalities and a fuckload of charm, hundreds of voice lines of fucking quality.

Mind you, Im comparing the actual TF2 to Overwatch, because if we were comparing the old TF2 it wouldnt be even fair how TF2 would shit on it.


Reading comprehension. He's against the game.

Dubs thread?

Whoops thats what happens when i dont drink my morning coffee

if dubs then yes, if no then porn dump thread.

It's alright, but honestly not worth the price.

at least the waifus are kinda good?

Yeah, that's honestly the best thing to come out of the game.

Aight, take FPS and ASSFAGGOTS and mix them together, not total shit but not good either, it's a eh-meh.

they are all boring.

Oh, but the porn is aight.

True, I wouldn't say the Overwatch cast would make for more interesting character interactions than the TF2 cast in the comics, considering how rather shallow and clichéd most of the Overwatch cast tends to be.

Thing is, Overwatch has better team synergy and interactions in game. In tf2, things usually boil down to everyman for himself, excluding engineer and medic. Overwatch has characters that actually compliment each other.

Hope you're joking.
Overwatch compared to tf2 has realdolls which you can play with, not actual characters.

I'm almost 100% certain that a good amount of hate for OW here is poorfags from third world shit holes and goons trying keep da meenie chan out

one anti-OW guy got so angry about people laughing at his bullshit "complaints" in the OW thread he posted his whole life savings of 100 poor people dollars

the game isnt great its not awful either but its a lot better than what TF2 is right now

I'm not a fan of character based shooters like WaifuWatch and TF2. I genuinely only enjoy Tribes because of projectiles and fast. I gave WaifuWatch a try and it's just too samey.

It's funny how the only hate for Overwatch comes from Holla Forums. Pretty much everyone agrees it's a good game.

I love Zarya, and there is very little fan art of her and most of the charm is the way she talks to Reinhardt and others that sells it for me. Though some of it may be me fantasizing about her being cool more than it is actually shown

no they dont, its normalfag bait so pretty much every place is gonna treat it like a flavor of the month till the next one comes out for them

it doenst have the autism power of like undertale where it is 100% tumblr backing
its more on the level of fallout 4 where normalfags doing dumb shit and a few tumblrs doing dumb shit but most discussion will die down soon enough

its the people who are so against it that are the real fucking autistic poopoo heads that outdo even tumblr in autism

The only legit complain so far is the lack of maps.
Other than that, comparing character development and depth is retarded considering one game has been out for a fucking decade and had shitton of comics and videos while another one hasnt even had time finish making introductory comics for half its cast.


A shame all her cosmetics fucking suck, they are all so fucking ugly. Except for the siberian/arctic ones.

Okay, you guys are not trying anymore.

This shit thread can die already.

Eh, played through the Beta and got my fill of it, think I m over assfaggot shit and if you don't have friends to play with there really isn't any reason to play, especially for 40 bucks. I'd probably hop on once in a while or buy it for twenty bucks, but doesn't feel like it'd get the most out of my money if I paid for it. Considering buying Rainbow Six Siege since it's on sale, but uplay shittery + ubishit may keep me away.

ALIEN PUSSY BEST PUSSY

all im saying is you mash potato heads need to stop getting so triggered at any discussion of it
its not on the same level as undertale

It's the normalfag/dudebro "gamer"s Undertale. At least until the next big thing comes along and 04b0fa is out of a job

...

20 tick rate

oi you fucking weenie calm down thats not what I said at all
how much are you being paid to meme this hard

pretty much, as soon as the next big thing gets normalfag attention they will be off to it
thats why I really dont see why people getting so fucking angry about it like its the end of Holla Forums
seriously some guy posted his life savings, can you imagine being that mad that people are playing a game that you post pictures of your money on a anonymous image board?

Ever noticed blizzard takes some shit that existed for ages, polishes it and releases as something new. Now add massive casualization, generic everything and "working as intended" balance plus massive advertising and shilling and you get new blizzard aka jewzzard.
Me personally, I haven't even played overwatch because I know that there's nothing new/worthy in this game. My friends did though and said the same.

It's more about some dedicated autists being afraid that by allowing serious quality discussion about games they think (and in this case is) are normalfag shit, it'll open the floodgates to more normalfags discussing more AAA games unironically. Then there's the autists who will make all kinds of mental gymnastics to convince everyone that OP is a shill because they think everyone else in the board is retarded and can't see it for themselves, so they have to point it out with glowing fingers, but only end up shitting up the thread.

In such an 'ideal' Holla Forums, we'd have to ban discussion about certain games so they don't get shilled and normalfags can't talk about it. But they can't, so they take matters into their own hands and become what they want their ideal Holla Forums to be, and want everyone to follow their example. Because that always works out so well. If the threads in question were a total fucking cesspit like the Undertale generals, they'd have a point, but the call of the autists only happens once in every blue moon and certainly does not apply to Overwatch (yet).

Except most of the lines in TF2 that you could say were already in there on release, the only lines they added that were for character interaction and expanded character depth were the specific domination lines. People knew the medic's sadistic mad scientist personality long before Meet the Medic and because of his voice actor he didn't get new lines for the longest time despite everyone else getting them.

First time hearing about it and watching a video about it. Always assumed it was due to ping, thanks for pointing it out

Have been playing Planetside 2 on US East with shit ping from western europe, and it is just as bad as playing Overwatch when it comes to getting killed when you are already out of enemy sight.

read

I'll even say it again

This is my favourite copy paste meme

I am roughly level 210 so I assume I am privileged to talk about the game as if I knew what was going on?
I try not to be biased, but consider both negative and positive sides of the game.

pros:

cons:

Yes, the game repeats itself, but as for me, each match feels new with new opponents, new ways to play, new strategies to learn and try, it's just a long journey of learning the game, there's no point where you'd already know everything about the game and thus put it to rest. Seeking challenge and possibly a place in the leaderboards, its all well worth in my books.

I suggest giving the game a try, if anybody is being hesistant of buying it.
I'd say its worth to try even if you don't end up liking the game.
Also, all games are enjoyable with friends, so get few buddies to have fun together

Its the new hotness and the 3rd world poorfags from places like venezuela can't infest it like TF2 post F2P transition.

So they let us know how sour their grapes are, it happens with every single buy to play pc game but since its Blizzard people notice it more, but every time. Every single time it happens.

These i agree with. They have been quick so far with patches so i hope they can fix one of the two soon with more maps.
Havent experienced this myself
Let retards throw money away if they want, i need to play 3 or 4 matches to get the same shit for free
Counters are a bad thing? are you complaining that you cant only play 1 character in a team based game and that you have to adapt to the map, to your own team or the enemy team? Are you one of those retards that only wants to play sniper or something?
They are meant to be strong. Everyone has them. Coordinate how to use them to attack or defend. Many ultimates can easily be ruined by simple things as a basic shield or just killing the healer first which you should be doing in the first place anyway.
But having counters and ultimates unlike TF2 is also bad? If it is like TF2 its bad. If its not like TF2 its also bad. Characters have roles, reinhart is like the demoknight? Is the demoknight a tank in tf2? There are character archetypes that overlap but they dont need to reinvent the wheel with them

Wew, textbook shilling even after saying that the price is too much for what it is.

That guy is one of the third world poor people i mentioned
Nothint he says is really fact based especially the micro transaction shit

Pretty much, i played my friends account for a few days and felt it was worth it for me
Not gonna be the top game for me to suggest people but its one of the few multiplayer games ive liked enough to buy

I agree with all the problems also
Especially idiots that only play genji

Counters are a bad thing when they're the only option. If you are forced to play A B C characters to counter Z character since you won't do much with others, that's retarded.
If you put a counter, thats okay, but when your only hope is a counter, that's bad.

Ultimates even if they're suppossed to be strong shouldnt be an "I win button"

Characters copied from TF2 means that they lack originality, that they split ONE character into THREE as an example. It's not really hard to see the point, but I guess you're retarded, you play this shit game after all.


>Nothint
Nice argument and nice proof retard. All I said has been proved, if you're in denial is your problem faggot.
I've never been in your shit containtment thread, I let it there to rot.

Prove it

you start off with this right away without giving any reason for your statement

it was designed for the absolute worst players, thats why it has a low skill ceiling. Blizzard took FPSes and reduced an individual's effect on the game considerably on purpose. lets look at arena FPS design in comparison

its like some sort of anti-competitive game

for an "everyone wins" game, it manages to piss me off more than tf2 ever did thanks to the shitty matchmaking

youre comparing it to an arena shooter? man i would take quad damage over 80% of the ults in this game any day. most of them are just a great way to fuck yourself over except in some situations.

for a game that supposedly recudes an individuals effect on the game, every game ive been playing revolves around me cause my team mates sure as fuck arent doing any thing useful. but it can be hard to get back on your feet so to spead if you do fuck up, thats more to do with map design than anything else though.

Ultimate counters, unlike the ubercharge counter, don't reset on death.

That means every noob will eventually get their Ultimate and most beginner fuides recommend using your Ultimate as soon as you get it since "saving" it for the perfect moment is just a waste since you're getting another soon anyway.

Ultimates are a poor game design choice solely used to provide instant gratification to noobs.

if only they would fucking do that, how many games will i get a mercy who uses her ult once per match?
play of the game was a mistake. commendations were a mistake.

Honzo is the biggest offender of this. His arrows can be the size of a truck at times. Many times I would watch a replay of a arrow clearly missing me and still hitting. Essentially, a sniper that barely has to aim. Reinhart's hammer has some odd hitboxes too. I understand it's anti Genji and Lucio (who want to dance around the payload) but his fire launching attack can even hit behind him. Or his hammer swing hitting directly above him.


The lack of depth is what keeps me from this game. I don't feel like I'm learning anything new besides how to coordinate better. Who beats who or who is best in what situation is already established after playing for 15+ hours. I think the biggest offense is the lack of quality music, the 20 tick rate, and so many damn slippery surfaces. You can't really get creative over where to approach from thanks to that.


They said the same thing about Skyrim. I think OW is good but everyone saying it's good doesn't mean shit.

Rein hammer isn't awkward. What you see of the hammer on your screen when you swing is what it will hit, and that's a veeeeery wide hitbox
