I swear there is only one way of getting to Attack A in that map, maybe I'm blind...

I hit 100 yesterday as well. I then slept all night long when I normally would be Overwatching with my buddies because my sleep schedule has been ruined by Overwatch.

"Avoid this player" works pretty well from what I can tell.
Regarding 'useless' Hanzo/Widows who don't push the payload, if your kill feed is on, and the particular sniper is taking down the enemy turret/bastion frequently and you're still not able to push the payload to completion, it's you who are failing at their job, not them. Push comes to shove they should touch the payload to keep overtime, but if they get the problem heroes on the enemy team they are doing their job
Reposting this so it doesn't get lost on the last page. I'm still trying to get into games with no luck so far. I can go to the practice range and that's about it.
Also, it's taking forever for character models to load, so everything is invisible for the first minute or so and there's no sounds for anything other than ambient noise.
I really need some advice, otherwise I'll have to stop playing which I really don't want to do.

Your not the only one. The max time I had to wait was close to 5 minutes.
A useless Hanzo and Widowmaker player is someone who can't aim for shit and is just wasting time in the back when they could do better with another character. I've come across too many of them not taking down turrets and spending most of their time trying to out snipe the other sniper.
PC Version? That's really strange. Sounds like the game isn't loading assets fast enough, but you are connecting just fine.
Send a ticket to the blizzard support, I've not read about this problem here yet...I hope they can help you.

It ranks based on how many games you've played as that hero
Oh. I haven't run into many of those. I do quite frequently run into the odd player who complains about the same old tired 'why is no one pushing with me?' shtick without realizing how much space the backline sniper and spawncamping frontlines are actually making for the payload by not letting the enemy set-up their defenses. Usually 2-3 on the load are enough

I wish that blizzard would reclassify some of the characters just so that people won't misunderstand their roles.
Like hey, we have a symmetra, so I guess we don't need a healer, or hey, there's a D.va, she's in the tank class so I guess it's her job to sit on the objective while we run around willy nilly as yet another reaper/soldier/tracer.
Kinda feel like sym belongs more in defense and d.va in assault.
I think mei works better at tanking also while we're at it.

Every match I play, I end up carrying the team with Mercy.
I'm hoping that if nothing else I can be mathematically separated from the drooling mouthbreathers that populate 95% of quick matches.
A single highly-mobile hero can work wonders by themselves with the payload, tbh. As long as the rest of your team is killing opponents and preventing them from setting up an elaborate chokepoint, one Tracer or one Lúcio can easily use the payload as a shield for the entire match.
most of the games I play I get the gold medal for most objective time.
I hope that will be considered when we get ranked.

Part of the problem is that you have 4 supports, the least represented class type in the game and of those only two of them are dedicated healers but people assume all of them are.
You spelled Mecha Queen wrong.

The turret turned on you during Tjorbörg ult and you got deleted. There was no hacking involved if you tried to imply that.
I know (hope?) you are trying to make a joke, but just claiming any of those things are happening in that video in the description of your video makes you look like a fool.
if youre not joking, oh boy. You were caught out in the open (wall hack lol?) by a turret during ult, and got sniped because you are Tracer and have no life. Should have recalled the second you saw the turret (you even shot it before dying), guess you're not that good huh bro? :3

It should be. Considering that's how games are won, that should be the most important criteria.
It's more like she's very situational. She is absolutely amazing when defending the first cap point but when you lose it you should switch heroes pretty quickly. Her sentries are a nice annoyance but they won't change the game against a good team like her teleport does. I wish they buffed her in a way to make her more useful in late capture map rounds and in control maps.
everything about the turret makes me rage fuck it
Everyone thinks they're the star and that everyone else is the problem when losing. Had a Mercy yesterday go "please protect me and we will win" which, well, sure, but it's not exactly like flicking a light switch. Of course later on they started typing out complaints and "bg" etc.
I can't take these losers seriously. Yeah, it's frustrating when you're losing but are you really doing that much better yourself? Maybe you are, which is great, but maybe you really aren't which is why you keep getting matched up with us other losers.
That said, sometimes people do play very off objective. Assaulting on King's Row with two Hanzo's and one Widow, no one was actually moving on the point even when it was clear due to their good sniping. I was Mercy and got on the point myself, but wasn't backed up on it. Of course once I noticed the issue I should have switched to some meatier character and pushed it, but eh. A game where my team is absolutely rekt is only five minutes of my time.
No mic so I avoid groups. Plus the pressure the actually deliver >_>
I dont...I dont know what that is. You win some, you lose some, I /care either way
You're doing it wrong.
Delete this my man, your complaints just look stupid now
Yeah that's how most of my games feel like too.
Love that Widow/Hanzo camping away from the objective, trying his best to provide no help at all to their team.

A sorry, I mean I don't have a microphone (I'm considering picking up a ModMic sometime since it either way is good to have one). If that's fine I'm all for grouping up although I probably won't be on until this evening. Added you! (anyone else can add me as toppform#2960)

At what point is it OK to accept that no one else will play support; and you have no obligation to them and just play for the loss.
