I honestly don't understand why that doesn't damage him yet Pharah's rocketjump damages her

right, he's like Sentinel from Marvel vs Capcom 3. Against obvious people who aren't good, its like "wow this robot is OP". A few months later, nobody serious plays him cuz he's a big liablity that everybody counters. Genji beats him. Widowmaker beats him. Pharah, Winston, Junkrat, Reinhardt beats him, F R E E.
loot boxes can drop coins, and you also auto-"disenchant" items you already own for coins. That's it, for now at least.

Only from loot boxes on duplicate items or straight up credits.

Loot boxes, both directly, and from duplicate items.
I think I earned a total of around 1800 by the time I hit 60, during beta.
No.

I just love when we have 3 tracers on a team before the match starts...and another person picks her.

is there a point to wait to open loot boxes?
I think it will be fine. The salty folks won't stick around for super long.
then again I hope I'm not wrong

You already know that's a L when two people are your team reflectively pick widowmaker on offense and just refuse to change. No tanks, no supports...
Perfect.
I plan on doing that once I have a few people learned. Right now I don't even really know any characters.
I feel like soldier is pretty easy to understand but mastering making the most of his abilities is actually a challenge. I missed many missile shots.
Is there someone that throws nades or something. I love nades in games.
Very true. Same thing happened with TF2. Lots of salt to begin with, then the community was just left the with the cool kids.
Junkrat has a grenade launcher.

Fine, just as well as the beta.

I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?
Played 18 games.
Won 8. I feel like I played a critical "clutch" component on like four of those.
Was in the "Top 4" or whatever where you can vote on best player almost every game. That felt good.
Played most Mercy and Reinert (however you spell it).
Level 8, now. Got shit in my loot crate.
Got one POTG:
Having a blast!

You mean logically or mechanically? Junkrat's mine is meant to also be a device for movement. Pharah's self rocket damage is meant to dissuade sloppy close encounters because it's her main weapon. You can "rocketjump" with her E in any case.

They came up about 17 minutes late, they've been fine ever since.
Junkrat is demoman from TF2, so he has a grenade launcher.

They want you to buy those loot boxes as $DLC.

You can teleport on top of Bastion as Reaper and two shot him.
Genji's reflect lasts more than long enough to reflect and kill Bastion.
Roadhog can rip him out of turret mode.
Junkrat can lob three explosives out of line of sight and kill Bastion.
Reinhardt can charge into him while he reloads.
Widowmaker can sit out of Bastion's effective range two shot him.
Hanzo can one shot him in a corner with splintering arrow.
The list goes on and on.
Almost all these Bastions running around right now don't even move. It would be one thing if they're constantly shifting modes to get better angles to surprise people, but they aren't.
Professional scrims for a beta? Hmm.

Why? They literally mean nothing. It's not like you have to do anything special to earn them. It's all luck.

You bought in blindly without the beta too IIRC right? Glad you are having a good time.

Are you actually using your rockets to jump, Quake style? Cuz that's not how you do that. She has an ability that launches her into the air, and can use concussive blast in a pinch.
It's not ALL luck. It's more persistence. Getting firefighter mei the first day is luck. But if there's a legendary skin you really really want, you can buy it soon enough. Keeping cosmetics at a less than lightning pace makes you appreciate each more, and improves the longevity boost they bring to the game for people who like to collect these sorts of things.

Got an awesome Zenyatta highlight intro, that'll never see a real match.
If you're playing with a solid group of randoms it might not be worth it to leave that session, otherwise go nuts.

I don't know man, there's a scary amount of obnoxious "get gud" posts.
I understand but if legendary skins and coin are that rare in dlc crates then fuck all
Junkrat at is the fucking best. Just hurl grenades at everyone and anything. Throw a spike trap on the ground with a mine next to it and detonate when triggered for an easy kill. Use mines to launch yourself across the map to get to the objective from the spawn. Throw mines at enemies and detonate instantly when it looks like you're about to lose a gunfight.
Junkrat is life man

The aiming feels a little less responsive than it did in the beta. I'm on the PS4 version. Anyone else notice this? The menus are still unresponsive but they were the same in the beta. The aiming was spot on in beta but it feels off now like there's input lag. No, I haven't changed my TV.

Game is like crack. I can't stop playing. Playing support is fun. Watching the whole team come together using all their powers to take an objective is really fun.
Are we really gonna start this crap already? Come on man.
haven't noticed anything

Hes such a great defensive character. He can lock down objectives real easy, or make chokepoints a real meatgrinder between his bombs and the traps. And he's got high mobility mine that lets him escape situations, get a lot of mobility, or even just push enemies away from you.
I think he's top 3 in the game, along with McCree and Genji
For every 5 "Get gud" posts there is a post like this:
A much better ratio than any other competitive game on GAF imo

Mei might be my main so far. Her ice walls can really save a team wheb overwhelmed with gunfire, her freezing is a little op, nice ice shots and she can heal herself. Was not expecting her to be this good!
