So who do you pick GAF?
Have you played the game yet? You clearly can't make this decision unless we know the map and the A/D side.
Jesus these people are so new!
The world could always use more heroes.
I'll rate her minus
Freezing a Pharah as Mei and having her fall on you is also hilarious.
Torbjorn does well against Tracer. Tracer is one of the only heroes who struggles to 1v1 Torb's turret since it does not give a crap about her dashing around.

Nope. You level to 100, prestige to 1, rinse, repeat.

The rhythm of heal / damage buff / Help Line to teammate in need / heal / pop off a couple pistol shots / etc. is verrrrry satisfying.

Anyone on ps4 right now?
Took me about 30 to 40 to install from disc. I don't have any of the extras and they don't seem worth it in general to me. But I don't play those other games. Consider buying it physical from Amazon so you can save money.
Aside from a character portrait or two and the border of your profile changing...nada.

I would say that my feeling is, at least in these cases of entertainment, consent and understanding precludes exploitation. If I'm aware something I'm paying for is a bad value proposition, and even that it would hurt me (in so much that an entertainment-related addiction can hurt), but I still feel compelled to pay for it anyway, I don't feel like I'm being exploited.
If I had no choice in the matter, and I was being over charged, that would be exploitation. Or if the nature of the system I was buying into was subversive to the point where I could not understand generally how bad the value proposition is, that would be exploitation.
Thinking more broadly, I don't think my stance on the matter in this way really extends that much farther than entertainment. But as far as the scope of this debate goes, I don't think any of us has no choice in the matter. And I think everyone understands that these blind-buy systems are designed to extract more money from less product.
So given that we are capable of providing our un-coerced consent, and we understand the system we are buying into, I don't believe it's exploitative or anti-consumer, at least according to my own definitions of what I believe those terms mean.
I think you get an achievement if you hook her out of her ult.

So what were everyone's day one levels?
I managed to get to level 13 nearly 14.
I managed to get to level 13 nearly 14.
I do it in every game and it was a random. why would you assume it was only with wins? wtf?
Are you including sprays and such under "Other skins"? Because anecdotally both now and in the beta they have been the bulk of what I've gotten. Amusing seeing people who bought the game referred to as "freeloaders"
Fair enough, I disagree but thank you for fully outlining your stance.
Indeed, what's wrong with saying "gg" after you win? If you steamroll the other team then maybe its a bit smarmy, but if its a fun or close game why woudnt you?
Reaper's fun. I have a blast playing him on Hanamura offense and Nepal/Lijiang Tower especially.
He's particularly awesome on the control maps because those involve a lot of constant short-range combat in smaller areas.

Until I see an unboxing video/stream where a person gets crap in most of the boxes, yes.
Skins are skins. I didn't actually include sprays because the percentage came out at 150% and I wasn't sure how useful that would be. I guess you should expect a spray in every box?
Played for 2 hours and got to level 9, close to 10. Wish I had partied up so I would get that experience boost.

Drop shield for team then leap to enemy and annoy. It's worked well for me.

Played a few matches where it was agonizing. Most on my team wanted to be offense and nothing else.
Almost had a team where four of them were Tracers, I shit you not. Glad they changed at the last minute, though.
What is with people and wanting to be offense heroes always? It's either that or be a sniper from waaaaay back and we're attacking. I swore so loud my wife got mad when I was playing with a Reinhardt and he used his shield just for himself. And to be aggor...
Seriously. It's a fun game, but these asshats need a slap to the face or something. People either play as Widowmaker, Tracer or Reaper. Oh, my god! Almost every game has a Reaper who sucks, or doesn't care about the objectives and just wants to do that "Die! Die! Die!" move of his to be L33t or something. Argh!

Yes. You keep everything(obviously) and get a new character frame.

Ps4 performance is slightly better based on DF beta analysis.. But I played the beta on XO and it was very solid. Very, very solid all round - it is a go with what platform suits, and if you have the elite controller that's the way to go.

I love playing as Mercy...I always go the healer route in most games anyway. Her range is a little small, but otherwise still a fun character to play. I haven't even played as anyone else yet.
thats a sherlock quote though the second psychopath was originally sociopath

Reaper sounds like the type to try and quote Sherlock only to mess it up.

I'm seriously debating just spending the $10 for 11. It's all cosmetic so I don't think this system is remotely offensive (unless they pull a Treyarch), and I already have 10 damn hours in this game so I guess I'll spend more on it. I got 2 legendaries so far and I've had good luck with purples as well. I got 3 hours of sleep and I have to go to work. This game is already ruining my life

Think I just had the best game I will probably have.
Symmetra: 20 kill streak , no deaths, victory and play of the game.
I don't upload clips at all normally but proud of this one lol

**Excuse the poor editing I don't use share play at all, tried to cut it down to just kills where I could.

For how simple her playstyle is compared to other heroes, she really is a blast to play. I always switch to her when I see the no support heroes message pop up

I love Symmetra. i really like what she adds for support. especially from a defensive standpoint, she makes total sense. It really seems like depending on the mode and what side you are on you need to choose a certain type of character.

I played Zarya throughout the whole beta and just realised you can lob an energy grenade with L2.

Her and Tjorbjorn have to be the least played heroes. No wonder we never have any builders.

Call me if you ever need a Torbjorn. He's my most played hero right now
He also has all the best highlight intros.
You can tell, because his name is Torbjörn!

I think Ive seen Tjorbjorn in every match I've played. I see way less Symmetra, Zenyatta, Winston and other Zaryas than anything.
Everything about Zenyatta is class. Best animations, best skins, best highlight intros.

It's still day one-ish and most of the people will begin understanding how to play the game eventually. Until then its all going to be a cluster fest.its fun getting the best of the new people with my Symetra though...ill miss it once the start wisening up.
