I've seen that scenario play out occasionally.
I do have love but not when they revive me in front of the entire enemy team
Yet Hanzo fires faster, does more damage and has bigger hitbox in CQC than Genji, eventhough Genji is a CQC character. The fact that the hitbox is generous is what makes it problematic in close range.
I'll be damned if I can find a Hanzo that actually plays long range. Since despite being a "sniper" Hanzo is most effective in close and medium range and that's where most players use him.

Jealous of everyone getting all these skins
In arcade mode she's amazing. Played a game where I was in the air for literally the whole game
If you are being destroyed by a Hanzo in close range I don't know what to say. He's so easy to kill close range, he has barely any mobility and one missed shot causes way too much downtime.
If it makes you feel any better, I got a legendary Blackbeard Torbjörn skin.

Am I the only one getting kicked out of games? Now I appear to be stuck at reinstancing.
I get the error "The server closed due to an unexpected behavior." On PS4, by the way.

Nah I feel the same. Seems like everyone has been watching Seagull videos since the beta ended + are running in premade teams. Solo queing is definitely a toss up for me.

So addictive. Played two games in a row not dying once with Torbjorn. Mwahahahaha!
The whole assists = kills thing makes the game feel more fun. It's a weird sort of mind game but it works on me at least.

That's actually the one legendary I've gotten
Haven't tried out the character yet, might try tonight
It's a sweet skin
Some tank got salty that I wouldnt heal him and was healing offence guys instead, because he was running off trying to kill people while the offence guys and I were on the objective. Its a big blue square, how tough is it to realise you should be standing in it?
Yeah its a big issue, or people who get killed running in one by one to the meatgrinder that killed them, as opposed to waiting a few seconds to group up

I keep dying even though I moved behind a corner. They need to fix that ASAP.

I'm playing it on my bootcamped 4k iMac. I'm able to run the game fine at medium settings and having a blast!
People are starting to demand healers in chat while they insist on running with 2 Widowmakers and 2 Hanzos on attack.
Then you somehow manage to win by pushing the payload by yourself as Lúcio while everyone is randomly pew-pewing (to be fair defense obviously is too - otherwise I wouldn't be able to complete the objective almost all by myself), get 4 gold medals, best of the game on objective, and get no commendations or thanks.
It's definitely going to be more fun when people start playing the game as intended instead of trying to line up kills or fishing for PoTG.

Had a team using that strategy on us just last game (with two of those pairs no less), and our Hanzo was key to stopping the Reinhardt and Bastion. The dragon super was amazing at stopping them cold on the payload every time it was up.

Does this game run/look good on consoles?
Don't see the what the deal is? Unless there were multiple Hanzo/Widowmaker.

PS4 (and i assume xbox) is 1080/60 and looks gorgeous.

There's lots of people that either A) Don't know how to play B) Don't know their characters and/or C) Don't understand the function of classes.
I was in an objective game about 20 minutes ago where I, as Reinhardt, was getting zero heals while capping. All the player did was attack as Zenyatta and occasionally heal DPS only. At one point I was blocking damage with my shield for about 20 seconds, capping the point, and the player was just running around.
It's hard not to get frustrated when a game balanced for teamwork has players that, well, don't play as a team. It's just important to remember this is only day two.
Hanzo is most definitely not a medium or close range character. At all.

I use 1.2 but I should probably try to get used to 0.7 or so lol

When I play support, snipers are absolute lowest priority. Tanks/people actually doing the objective are first
also 80% of the players don't know that the primary goal of a match is the objective.
I have lost so many matches cause people rather stay behind and shoot stuff than join my approach and camp the point.
I'm crying.
I hate it

Shitty Widowmakers on the team making me play Mercy very annoying but I'm learning fast now to be a decent healer. Tried Junk Rat and hated his fire rate. I keep trying Mccree and I just don't do anything with him. Pharah kinda clicks. I wanna try Tracer but there are so many.
If your sniper can't stay alive that's their own problem even when I play Widowmaker I don't ever expect to be healed.

They chose to favor client side detection vs. service side, so this unfortunately will probably never be fixed.

Not a "stand there and take damage" tank

A flanking, harassing one. Gotta know when to use that defense matrix and fly yourself to safety and health.

She's sort of an assault tank, you're supposed to flank people and fuck shit up.
Basically pretend you're a really tanky Reaper.

As soon as I see my team on attack with a Widowmaker and a Hanzo I know it's time to put on my tryhard pants cause it's gonna be an uphill battle.
She's good for chasing snipers and other people that are pestering your team from afar. Her shield also completely negates several ultimates, so that's why she's a tank.

How big do you guys think the Esports scene will be? Currently, on second day release it's at 113k viewers on Twitch at 5:30PST and Summit makes up roughly 23% of those viewers. He's mainly a CS and variety streamer so he probably won't stick with Overwatch long term. We will also see other streamers lose new release viewers overtime. Do you think this will be another Heroes of the Storm or will it be able to compete with the top 4 in Esports and viewership? Why or why not?

Randomly from chests or when you'd get a duplicate.
