POTG isn't going to cover a minute long stretch of time. 11 kills is AT LEAST like 30 seconds of gameplay, if you had 3 solid near solo kills in the same amount of brief time that a potg can be, you would beat the ult almost guaranteed (Ults generally have to do 1 better than a natural killstreak in my experience since the latest changes, which is good since the earliest version of potg was almost 100% reapers/mccrees/soldiers/etc).

Mei is infuriating to play against. Any tips for how to deal with her? I try to stay medium to long range with her but she manages to get close and freeze me to death way more often than I should be letting her.

Already so tired of seeing the exact same characters over and over and over again.

So the pig guy with hook chain and shotgun just seems infuriatingly OP in almost all 1v1 situations.
This game is really getting me titled with how players don't play the objective. I love it, but man sometimes its hard to enjoy myself with morons sitting back and not contesting.
Character stacking is allowed, but IMO and my 5 hours of experience...it's pretty stupid to do and usually gets a team stomped.

I don't think it's a better game overall than TF2, it's not as skill based but it will be competitive due to Blizzcon and the fact that it'll receive a lot more support than TF2 receives at this point.... but it is quite fun still.
The only issue I have is that I think the general movement of characters feel quite off which makes the aiming feel off. I'm not quite sure what it is or how to put it but I don't experience this in other games. I mean try using the sniper on someone and see how quick they move around...even the big enemies.
I think the delta in speed of classes should be a bit bigger.

I guess it'll be just like how TF2 does it, you can stack them but your team will be at a disadvantage.
You mean like the entire team of Bastions? Yeah, I think. But that would be just stupid since it's easier to counter clones than varied team that switches tactics.
Goddamn... goddamn. This game is really fun. It seems... simple and elegant in its balance, and the general flow of gameplay feels great. I'm pleasantly surprised that Widowmaker is my favorite so far, especially since my aim... isn't the best, lol. I have a bad habit of messing up shots at the last second with sniper characters. Junkrat and Pharah being 2nd and 3rd come as no surprise, though
It seemed like nearly every match I played had a really good Reaper. I'll have to check him out next time (and McCree as well).
they're the closest to my boys Demoman and Soldier, heh

Anyone experience any movement issues? Once in awhile (I noticed it a lot when I was a tank) it would feel like I was running in mud for a couple seconds then would go back to normal. Felt like lag, but nothing else was lagging, and I don't know if it was like this for every character. I noticed it a lot when just outside the spawn points.

i am connected to team chat and its selected but it doesnt work
Vsync and triple buffering will induce lag, it's normal and happens with every game tbh.
It's the same everywhere.Playing in Japan sucks cuz nobody uses voice chat.
Then I'm not sure.
People in the team chat aren't necessarily talking, it just means they are listening.
Are you sure they are talking?
As soon as i here die die i run out the way like a mad man.
It's a new game, ofc it's going to be among the most watched.Overwatch off to a good start:

This might be a dumb question but are PC codes region specific? I've got an EU beta code and I'm wondering if it would work in Australia.

Took the rest of the week off, both to play Overwatch and to move house. I am excited.
Yeah, but I think it'd be pretty broken if it wasn't.

Got one game in against AI as Junkrat after the tutorial.
Amazingly fun, game looks perfect on XBO, and god the atmosphere and character design and UI is fucking PERFECT.
It was a transport/protect objective and I was really impressed at how long it was. Should be absolutely bonkers with a full set of live players.
Really smooth to play, no moments of frustration. Can't wait for full release.

Yup. Can't wait for an appropriate ranking system and competitive queue. People are trying to play this like it's a Looney Tunes deathmatch. I had to walk away from the game tonight because of it.
The game is stellar though. Can't wait to play with you all eventually. Should help.

Okay. So I love the hell out of this game. Been playing since the beta went live on Xbone, and am just now getting off to relax for the night.
Mercy is my healer of choice. But she's so squishy! How can I increase her survivability?
