Zarya is an absolute bad ass in capture the point games.

She's a wrecking ball when she gets that charge goin.

 

[Papercuts]

Am I crazy or is Lucio's movement speed slower? Feels different from what I remember.

 

[ExVicis]

Got Safari Winston as my first Legendary skin. No clue how to play Winston

Sounds like a good time to start. He's fairly simple to understand, but not nearly as easy to master.

D.va's ult is sight based. You can hide behind a lamp post and avoid all damage.

D.Va's ult isn't sight based, that's McCree

2 hours in. Its great as always. The quality of players has jumped massively on ps4.
Only concern is the potential of how far micro transactions can go. I'm afraid at some point it will go down the tf2 road and start selling guns.

Game with 10 seconds left -> not enough players, skirmish -> game starts -> game suddenly waiting for more players -> waits for 5 minutes with us running around doing nothing of value -> another game with 10 seconds left -> skirmish -> new game waiting for more players.

They need to fix this.

Heh, I hadn't played Mercy much during the Beta but she feels very rewarding when your teammates actually play the objective, even more so when they thank you in chat after a game.

I've already had games where I couldn't find anyone because they were too busy doing their own thing though, lol. Or players crying for PoTG. Guess that's to be expected right at release.

Must say I'm glad to be playing it again though! I wouldn't have expected to like/miss it so much.

I love playing Mercy on a decent team. Guardian Angel makes her such a joy. More fun than I ever had playing TF2 Medic.

 

[Puck Beaverton]

Keep getting games where it's an infinite TDM because we can't get one more player. Keep having to leave so what is the DC penalty again?

 

[JayWood2010]

First game. Nothing too special or Flashy, but I love Tracer.

Comments are dumb though. Arguing whether or not Overwatch is original.

 

[Spring Drive]

I wish there was a site or an app to check your stats when you can't launch the game

 

[Rafy]

I've been mercy every game it doesn't help. People don't attack together. They run in one at a time and get slaughter. The only tank player I've had was a winston and he would leap 500 ft ahead of the team like he was king kong and die

2 straight hours of losing

It was not that bad for me so far, when it happens though it is infuriating.

 

[vypek]

it is, use a wall to stop it

It is. The victim's line of sight. I hid behind a phone booth and didn't die

 

[DNAbro]

And finally lost my first game. Mei and D.va blew us up on control points.

 

[Shahadan]

I already had one of my contacts throwing a tantrum and declare he's uninstalling because he loses. :lol:

How the fuck are some people even functioning properly irl

 

[wamberz1]

D.Va's ult isn't sight based, that's McCree

sight based as in the nuke requires a line of sight with the enemy. So if the nuke is on one side of a truck and your on the other, you'll be fine.

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

That's not sight, that's protection

an exploding mech doesn't need line of sight

 

[truestatic]

D.Va's ult isn't sight based, that's McCree

To a degree it is. If you can see it, you're dead. There's fall off but the range is big enough that the most reliable way way to survive it is just to los it.

 

[Static Veins]

Just played a match on Temple of Anubis against a team with three Torbjörns. They had three maxed out turrets facing our team coming into that choke point beneath the arches; one on the balcony and one in each side door.

What a fucking massacre, we couldn't get past that point for the whole match. Doesn't help that it seems only me and one other player were interested in playing anyone that wasn't Offense.

No, what they mean is you can duck behind cover, even streetlamps and such will nullify all damage.

Big time, this is infuriating. I dont want to get into an already going game, i dont want to go into a losing game, i dont want to go through loading screens just to see "defeat". How hard is it to code "if payload is <5 meters dont queue a person in"

We did have a 24 hour head start.

 

[Captain_Wreckus]

starting to leave games already due to cheaters/elite gamers ruining the matches.

 

[Loxley]

Played 12 games so far, have lost 11.

Even in the beta I never had a losing streak that bad.

 

[More Fun To Compute]

Had one game playing Winston where I felt like the only one playing the objective. Enjoying playing Pharah but all those turrets and snipers holy moley.

Pretty much my experience. I've probably won two games at most. I've realized it paid off more if I played Lucio instead of Mercy

Yes it is, it uses LOS mechanics.

 

[Veggy]

That feel when playing Genji and seeing Bastions kill themselves to reflect

LOL at the amount of salt already populating this thread. Didn't take long.

Use Junkrat?

Nobody is playing objective which is super fun. I understand it's new but it doesn't take a genius to figure you should stop the payload from fucking moving.

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

Lucio definitely beats Mercy as the go-to if you're on a...questionable team. No look aoe heals/speed boost so even if your teammates are basically just decoys you can at least keep them standing longer to draw fire as you work

welcome to solo queue

 

[Trago]

I'm killing it with Mercy. Damage boost is no joke.

Now if only everyone would focus on the damn objective, we'd be unstoppable.

 

[Compsiox]

having an outstanding time

 

[belushy]

Genji soloed me as Reinhart. Hurts man... I hope i start getting better at this game because....


ITS FUCKING AWESOME.

 

[Spade]

Feels good to be playing this game again.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

They added real money purchases? Bleh.

 

[Haines]

Help

The game.kicked.me.from it's voice chat

Anybody know how to fix this

I have great internet so this is nonsense

Can confirm. Played Lucio and we dominated on easy mode. Played Mercy and my team loved me but the game was much harder.

 

[Spring Drive]

I've stopped playing for tonight. My shitty stats so far: https://playoverwatch.com/en-gb/career/pc/eu/Birdseye-21615

Edit: I have actually won only two games, haha

 

[GamerKingFaiz]

Ummm, yes. OP already confirmed it was a GoT reference.

GoT - "my watch has ended"
Overwatch - "my onlywatch has ended"

Sure you can use it in that context, but that's not its original intention.

Can someone quickly explain how Lucio works? I switch from speed to heal. Is the heal just auto-healing those around me? How far does it work?


Does speed speed up my teammates?

Coordinating supers with Junkrat and pulling 5 into the gravity ball is awesome.
