And now I just got disconnect to the server. I hope Blizzard is aware of the Xbox servers.
It's so strange lookig at the master overwatch leaderboards with people having 50 losses in 300+ games. I think most people don't give a fuck honestly, even it was harsher it'll probably be the same outcome.

as someone who's mainly rolling Mercy or Lucio (on PC), no, most people suck at being healed. it's a thankless job.

I think the leaving penalty is appropriate, but they should tell you how long it lasts, as well as letting you know when it's safe to leave a match. The automatic queues save time when you're down to play for a long stretch, but sometimes things come up
The LoS was implemented because constant healing on tracer/flankers was too strong. Also his ultimate built up 50% faster so you used to have tracer/zenyetta and heals going off all the time. Personally i think his ultimate build up speed was not the problem, realistically a mercy resurrection can count as a count as a "heal". 600 over 6 seconds, ain't a ton in the grand sceme of things.
What makes the zenyetta health nerf worse and seem more like a "we fucked up guys" move was the justification that other characters are much more agile when they got their HP reduced. Pic related
Design wise zenyetta is by far my favorite but i avoid him because i don't want to drag the team down and just pick mercy or lucio.
Geez genji is not tracer he can't self heal
This is why you play as Lucio for that effortless AOE heal.

There needs to be a "No Healers" tip.
No, just because Symettra is support doesn't mean she can replace a healer.
With Sombra as supposed Support Sniper this could become a bigger problem.

Leave penalty in unranked games that last 10 minutes with drop in is stupid.
Semi- effortless... The healing is still LOS based... So when people run into side hallways away from me, they get nothing...

Do it like LoL, make leaving mid match count as a loss and lock people out of playing for a few minutes afterwards. It won't stop ragequitting altogether but it'll surely make it not as casual as it is now.

Love when people spam I NEED HEALING its like Bitch I know you need healing im actually healing someone else right now while trying to make sure I stay alive since no one has my back. I CAN SEE If you need healing.
Seriously, if there's no coordination going on Mercy is awful. Just play Lucio and skate around your teammates and to teammates going off by themselves as they continue to not care that your the only reason they aren't getting annihilated.
Hmmm, I dunno if she can heal or bring out turrets unless there's another kind of support games do.

This has always been weird to me. Sniper has always been my least favorite class to me in FPS games.

They can't actually, it's just showing it for you because they're your turrets, but they can't actually see the turrets.
Yeah, stop rage quitting, get to the end of a match and leave. If you happen to dc then it you dont have to worry since it wont kick in, it reall yneeds to punish those people who consistently leave and fuck over 5 other people

Do you play Mercy or Lucio?
Yep Mate says hes been spoiled by my Mercy playing everytime I play something else he rages when the healer doesn't do a good job or admits he has to try harder cause im not constantly keeping him alive.
Sniping is fun and rewarding in OW for me. I hated sniping in other games. It sucks that everyone else wants to snipe too though.

Yes? I don't understand what this has to do with the post...

Drop in doesn't mean you can't ruin a match by leaving. I get it if people need to leave for real life reasons and circumstances but simply constantly quitting games for no reason shouldn't be tolerated or encouraged, ranked or not.
Yeah haha, it's probably why i love him so much. I decided to go with a Lucio at the last minute since it was a koth map and first to point is always better even though we had a mercy and i still out healed her doing "nothing".

I was wondering because a lot of people complaining about support don't heal

I got a PotG the other day with Pharah that I think will be the best PotG that I'll ever get:

Not even sure why she's support. The teleporter is awesome but everything else about her screams defense. Torb can buff the health of allies too to a far greater degree than Sym.
I've only done that when I'm the tank on the objective and the healer (usually Lucio) has run off to do something else.
Lol someone actually managed to get a triple with an air meka explosion.
Or just flat out raise it.
The answer is to make her shield percentage adaptive relative to the base health of the hero.
Or just flat out raise it.

If I'm on a dumb team I get the fuck out of there after one round. I don't need the aggravation.
I payed for the game as much as anyone else. Why let 6 people get fucked over and not have fun when the system is built to accommodate that.
I'm not going to hang around when I'm not having fun on a team. No one should have to get fucked over when the matchmaking accomodates.
If my team is shit then I don't stick around. You're 100% right it's not worth it. If we can't take a single point or it I play like shit and get 4 gold medals then I nope right out when I'm done.

I need to leave quite often for real life circumstances and having a system penalize you for that in games that last ten minutes is stupid.
This isn't LoL and it's not Dota. It's not ranked and the games are over quick.
There shouldn't be a leave penalty.

If you need to leave then don't start a match. Pretty simple concept.
I use suck teams as an opportunity to pick a character I'm not used to using and make that a learning opportunity against human opponents.
Well yeah, telling people tough shit, sit in this game and not have fun or else we punish you is pretty simple.
Any achievements in a multiplayer game are gong to rely on circumstance almost as much as skill just because people are moving targets.
You're the #4 D.Va? Goddamn. Teach me! What do you do in a 1v1 against characters like Reaper or fast characters like Tracer? 1v1 is where I struggle the most. I've learned some cool shit with her like snipping when off the mech and calling it right as I'm about to die since it has invincibility and seems to catch them off-guard. Flying in with the shield out is great for turrets. I think another problem I have is I tend to fly ignorantly into a while bunch of people when trying to take out a turret or sniper, getting me killed.
