I guess the most generic meme one
(Hi Soldier76!)
But oh well, it's only for 1 or 2 days until OT2
You are what's wrong with this world.
Can you just imagine getting all of dem play of the games? I can just imagine the hate msgs I will get

I said that because I was watching the video posted in reply to my original comment, the 'pro TF player' one, and he was constantly jumping in that video.
there is no first region, its simultaneous

I dunno if people talked about it, but a French guy made a website about the game: http://www.owinfinity.com/en/
There are many details about every heroes, their skills, the symbols meaning, etc.
PS: I am NOT this guy (even though I'm French), I don't even know him, I just saw the link on a french forum.

You probably would have already heard if it was really bad. Plus, I don't think we'd be at this many posts if we didn't like the game.

Actually, let me take this question to the next level. I wasn't a fan of fast paced FPSs until Doom completely changed my mind last week. Now I know that I can play and enjoy them.
Is Overwatch for me? Also worth saying that I plan to play using a gamepad, even if I'm buying it on PC, comfy couch and all that.

I haven't played Doom, so I can't say for sure if you would like it. But Overwatch is pretty fast-paced. As for using a controller on PC, I wouldn't recommend that since that version has no aim assist and M/KB players will likely wreck you, but if that doesn't dissuade you I would say go for it.
You're gonna have a terrible time playing with a gamepad on PC. Buy it on consoles instead.
EDIT:
Try playing TF2 with a controller, or even Doom Multiplayer (turn off aim assist) and you'll get a feel for what it's like playing an FPS on PC against Mouse/Keyboard users.
Some classes might do alright but you're going to get wrecked most of the time. Anyone telling you otherwise is a fool.
The problem with having one char in each slot is though that support doesn't equal support. There are maps for example where you clearly need/want Lucio over Mercy, for example. Or Tank doesn't equal tank either. In some situations you truly would need a Reinhardt (especially since all other tanks are much better in double tank situations in most team setups).
I really loved the mystery hero brawl. It gave everyone the opportunity to play heroes they normally didn't/couldn't play.
You really do not want to go up against keyboard player with controller on pc :/
There is a reason they slowed down combat on consoles quite drastically.
Yeah, that's true. Either way I'd agree that fully intending on 'maining' one character the entire time is a bad idea. And atleast for random pub games having something for each slot is a decent guideline, though there's stuff like Symmeta which realllllly doesn't fill in just for support. Especially on the attack side.
I liked the mystery hero brawl until people lucked into double bastions and your random heroes would have no way of handling it.
LMFAO that was amazing!!!!!! Thank u for sharing this
Beta had what...9.7 million players? They managed pretty well all things considered. I'm not too worried about the launch.
Edit: I know its not concurrent players, but I imagine those numbers were pretty high too.
That was quite funny.

The fact that I'm starting to see sunlight is probably an indication that I should stop. I've been going for literally 11 hours.
Goodnight everyone. I'm sure I'll see some of you in-game later today.

If you are going to solo, it will get to you
Lone Wolf has it moments, but team play is key
The great thing about this game is stats are pointless, they arent the harbinger of other FPS stat whoring
I played for the fun of it as shocking as it may sound
Even in losses you learn stuff to make you better, cause you get taught new things to look out for
Its also a blast co-op wise with shooting the shit with friends or mates and having a go at it
The game brings the Destiny social aspect
What I mean is, when Destiny came along, it made people want to group up
It started becoming community centric by the way of playing the game, but also doing so with likeminded people
As you can see the meme force is Strong in this one
The playful nature of this game removes the clutter other FPS have stagnated
Games can be quick or super slow depending on how teams react to each other
Some people play OW like Checkers, others Chess, hilarious when both styles of play clash against each other and chaos ensues
Sometimes being very methodical can be your downfall
To me the game feels fresh, last game that got a gold of me like this was Destiny and I've put in roughly 1000+ hours before health issues sidelined me
I still play Destiny, but the game has left me and its hard for me to schedule into other players routines + my off schedule is not a match with most
OW feels like a pick up and play. Its never long in the tooth feeling
Maybe its due to its freshness and no redundancy of having played something like this before
Game has a curve but its so incremental, one great thing this game does is it always makes you feel like your 1 step away from greatness
It happens a lot, one game you might just click with a character and the opposition just befalls to your skills, then next round you get humbled like no tomorrow due to situations changing to combat or adjust to you
back when he had a shield lol

No embargo, but the servers won't be up till release so press will be playing the game as we are.

haha yeah, that's true about the hero brawl. However, in that case you basically started to think outside the box (or just accept your impending defeat).
I commend you for actually having played all archetypes. Most newish players don't do that. I have been in the beta since August last year, so I have played most of the chars but I still find myself having to play tanks or support with random groups.
Thankfully I have a group of friends I've been playing with for a while now and we are a well balanced setup and can adjust to counter the opposing team
Some people believe that more people have bought the game than have played the Open Beta
Yes. It's 18gb once installed.
wat? this is well after the shield was gone. You KNOW when he had the shield. Screen would be blue all over.
like so
8.15pm here in Australia...Was hoping to play alittle guess im waiting till tomorrow.
Hiii OT! I finally bought the game today. Used my last dime. RIP. Really wanted a D.Va avatar on Gaf, but there are so many already!
Gonna use Boot Camp, but I'm waiting patiently for Mac version.. maybe it will never happen, but here's to hoping~
Also I guess I won't be able to play until in about 24 hours. :<
I... actually didn't play the Overwatch beta. Been way too busy with other things (cough.... useless D3 farming).
