LOTS of Gulls kills were aided in LARGE part by Zenyatta and others. Gull was cleaning up and getting a lot of 1/2HK's from already damaged players. He was beasting for sure... but so was his team in general.

It's right in the OP. 7pm EST.
I agree that people shouldn't have 1 main, but you can certainly have a number of heroes that you main and can switch freely between. It's tough to master everyone in the game!
Thanks. Can I add myself manually or will someone have to invite me to the group?
Errr, is the PS4 doc on in the OT and I'm missing it?
Otherwise can I ask how I can add myself or who can add my PSN (X-Frame) for me? Thanks!
You can just join.

This was my stance on it. I actively play every Blizzard game and i love have more card backs and stuff like that and i love skins and because of that i would say i am worried that blizzard will start selling those coins for real money to unlock skins etc. but it would actually shock me if they didn't offer those within the next 6 months.

I hate this. Idk how many times i ended up in rando matches with people who would not pick anyone else game after game. There's always that bro playing Widow and that person playing "XYZ" that refuses to change. I dont understand players like that.

I mean, it's still not really how it works. It's akin to Dota where you may like certain heroes but you have to pick what best complements your team and counters your opponents. If you're playing casual it's not that big a deal obviously but if anyone plans to play the competitive mode it'll be much more important.

It's Blizzard, so I don't expect that to be a problem.
Especially with the Beta going pretty smooth just 3 weeks ago.

I advise learning at least 2 heroes for each role so you can be useful to the team instead of a hindrance. Obviously being able to play everyone at a decent level will help as you'll know how to best counter them as well. I honestly can't think of anything more boring than playing one character every game, I'm hoping these "I main xxx" people are the minority. It's normal to have a hero or two you prefer and are better with but you need to be flexible in Overwatch.

Well in the beginning you want to play someone you're comfortable with
Then when you really go hard @ competitive mode and Ranking comes into play then you'll see adjustments
I bet a group of 3 Reapers, 2 Hanzos, and a Pharah will get annihilated if that was how Ranking teams classes were chosen but if its pub play you can skate by if other team doesn't counter to it which is easily done

What's the difference between ranked and not ranked?
One is ranked and the other is not.

Are you new to team-based games ? Some people will just play whatever they want to play, especially in quick-play mode.
Thank you! And PM where, on GAF or on PSN?

Ranked means more aggressive play, communication will be key, skill will be a common occurrence with certain characters knowing your chars flaw etc.
Wins will matter, Rank position, leaderboards etc.
Not ranked is more relaxed, goof off, have fun mode
No pressure to perform
It's a Game of Thrones thing.
We'll see. Every single one of Blizzard's retail launches since (and including) WoW has had issues going live. The beta did perform well, but people were also staggered in, intentionally or not. I had early access due to pre-ordering and still couldn't actually get in for two days. Might be a lot different when millions of people are trying to hit the servers all at once.
Then again... it could be fine. That would be pretty good.
Exactly. Only playing as just one character is ridiculous. Reminds me of those sub-human tumors that would only pick Pudge in Dota 2 and insist on Mid even though someone already picked a better Mid hero.

I've never played Lucio and I want to try him out. I've used Tracer sparingly, but I want to use her more.
The beauty of this game is that all the heroes are fun to play! The fun increases when it's the right hero for the map or a timely counter. It's like, "Fuck this (dying), I'm just gonna switch to X."
I'm the best at getting kills with Junkrat, because he's closest to Demoman. However sometimes the team doesn't need kills. I wouldn't say he's my main hero though. Just the one I'm most comfortable with.
Somehow I remember some great 13-15 killstreaks with Tracer during open beta. I never got the hang of Scout in TF2, but there's hope for Tracer!

The ps4 numbers shot up shot since a few days ago. Even the Xbox numbers went from 9 the last time I checked to 20.
No, which is exactly why I am asking the question. It's like maining rock in rock, paper, scissors.
I'm setting my alarm for 4-5 am, I bet the first couple of hours will be a clusterfuck of Errors 37 and disconnects anyway.
EDIT: But then again the game launches in the middle of the night in Europe so maybe the servers won't be as hammered as I think?

Work is going to last forever today. Zarya, Zenyatta, and Lucio are calling out for me.
Heh. I had no interest in it till lately and had to miss the beta due to a move, but I watched some footage recently and now I might buy it soon if only because I want to support any (good) game that dares to go with a cartoony art style and that provides a way to practice against AI on all maps (I'm looking at you Splatoon!).
