This game can be absolutely souls crushing and make you question your skill altogether.
It's really annoying getting a good hook with Roadhog, and your victim gets hit by something else at the same time and they travel in strange ways that don't make any sense. His hook should have priority.
Anyways, are there any good "How to play _______" videos yet?

Lvl 20 zero legendary skins. It's not as uncommon as you would think.
Are you me?

That feeling when you get in a game playing solo and the whole team goes D.Va and then our whole team goes one character and then all 12 of us stick together being idiots playing all of one character per team for multiple games. Just beautiful.

I love how people complain about no one playing healer, but never switch over themselves. Talk about a lack of self-awareness, haha.
Don't feel bad. The matchmaking tends to try to match you so as to get you a 50% win rate, so unless they've mastered the game within a week, just about everyone is losing about half their games right now. Everyone has bad games, and no one is all that great just yet.
Widows have to go on serious snipe streaks to get PotG. I imagine that's not easy on a controller, yeah?

I find Lucio to be essential on every team I play. I've just started using him every time someone isn't and have a 75% win rate on him with 30 wins 11 losses. Pretty decent win rate in a game like this no?

I tried using flash bang on another McCree using High Noon but it wore off instantly and he killed me. Weird
It's amazing how different games can be depending on team dynamic and other factors. I just spent a while playing with a friend and we more or less play tank (him) and healer (me) roles but sometimes we would just get steamrolled and sometimes we would win big.
I've started liking Mercy more. Juggling her healing and damage buff while trying to use Guardian Angel to stay alive is pretty fun. Lucio is still probably my favorite support character overall but Zenyatta can be very effective and so can Symmettra.
One thing's for sure, the game is majorly fun.

bad gameplay lol
So, question.
I've never been THAT big into team-based FPSes. The most fun I ever had with one was MAG, where I'd frequently outscore everyone else on my team despite my KDR being terrible because I actually bothered to heal/revive other players.
With that in mind, would I enjoy Overwatch?

Mei, followed by Tracer. Then Mercy.
Just remember, you will be saying this a lot.

Any one else obsessively try to melee a basketball into the hoop before matches? I've been close before but never gotten it in. Is it even possible?
Yes. You care about your team so you'll do better than most.
I think they need to do something to tweak the game for a more fun matchmaking experience. I dont know, its just not fun doing all these awesome things and losing. Kept the payload in overtime by myself as genji at several points as my team was continually wiping from bastion, Id go in kill it, play with their whole team myself and it just kept going over and over until I turned on my ult. Died since the team obviously knew I was the biggest threat, so only killed the Dva and widow watched in the spec cam as our hanzo (who was good at clearing the load with his ult on ocassion) thought that it was a good idea to fire arrows right outside of the overtime area when we were just a few inches from the goal.
As it is now the game is almost unenjoyable without grouping up and I dont want to depend on grouping up everytime I play.

Yes. KDR means jack all in Overwatch. Playing to win means helping your team win objectives.

Junkrat grenades can go in so I don't see why the basketball wouldn't
Ive never played a multiplayer shooter since team fortress 2. So...yes?
Nothing stops this tram.

I'm terrible at most every fps with the exception of Battlefield. I'm terrible at this when it comes to shooting, too, but I am enjoying it a good bit. You don't have to be a hotshot to have fun. There are lots of spots for support characters to shine. Just don't expect to ever get PotG, though, haha.

Helps that she has the best skins of the game.

I learned that lesson a few times! Now I just stay on the ground when I can, strafing in and out of cover to get a few rockets off makes very short work of bastion or turrets.
Yep I agree, she's my most played class now. I feel right at home with her as a former Tribes player.
I've gotten plenty without it
Her design in general is amazing, she needs her own game.
Shotgun blast into melee should oneshot most of the cast.
I probably go for two shotgun blasts. Melee only ever does 30 I believe and I'm assuming point blank shotgun is more than that.
Yeah, she's such a nice solution to so many problems. Snipers holding down your team in their comfy nests? Rockets. A team sitting on the payload? Rockets. Symmetra and Torbjorn turrets? Rockets. Bastion? Rockets.
I did get one with as Soldier but it was Day 2 and everyone still didn't get used to it, other than that, I been POTG with those two a lot.
The second because its instant.
Overwatch is made for you.
The benefit to the melee is that you can cancel the shotgun animation. Most heroes can get away or defend themselves pretty quickly after getting hooked.

Not an impossible task, if your team can coordinate ults.
We just played against a disgusting team, all offense classes running double healer. They beat us after we had the weirdest comeback, but man it was a rough game.
