With the gold weapons, are you supposed to accrue all 300 points this season? That's an absurd time investment

Pretty sure they roll over. With that said, I am really casual and already have 55...it's not that bad.
well you should be playing overwatch, give your video game life away to it and stop cheating on it with other games. other than that the points will roll over I would imagine and at the end of every season they might give bonus points depending on rank
Some guy was accusing me of hacking while playing Pharah today. I was having a really good match, which is kind of odd since I most of the time suck with her lol. He said he was going to report me, I told him be my guest. Blizzard is good at finding out who is and isn't cheating right? I'm on PS4 too btw
If these McCree + Mercy + Zen buffs stay, Pharah pretty much dies in the meta. You will get shot down so fast.
And about team comps, Seagull said he thinks the new pro meta will be (if these changes stay that is): Zen, Ana, McCree, Mercy/Lucio. Those as the base four. Zen and McCree are just too insane now according to him and Ana's sleep is very powerful as it disables one target from the fight for 6 seconds and she's just a good all around hero.

Of course not. You even get points at the end of the season.
you can't cheat on consoles so let him report it and laugh.
prolly cuz its old
need new maps and/or modes, my few friends on my list are basically barely on anymore
im getting bored of it too tbh
People might just be waiting for the patch.
i feel like some people are now just waiting for the next patch or they moved on and taking a break. Comp seems to have killed some people's interests in my list.
I do think they need some new maps though..
Fucking morons in quick play, I thank a god I don't believe in that I play with people in competitive now. why in your mind as a rein would you drop your shield while a pharah or 76 is ulting and get your teamamates killed. why after I 4 kill a team on the payload the healer thinks it's a good idea to switch to dva to contest it when we need a fucking healer.

Quick play is hugely more fun for me. Sure, you get leavers, and incompetents, and the occasional asshole, but Competitive has all of those things, plus more trolls, and also WAY more assholes, and you're stuck with them for a much longer time to boot.
That's true.
Knock out a Mercy in the back and it's 5v6 without their healer. Do they really need to stack that much support though?
Didn't see it posted, dev chimed in on a stream about some PTR stuff. https://www.reddit.com/r/Competitiv.../mercy_buff_is_being_reverted_and_other_info/
Most notable is that Mercy right click buff is not sticking, Zen might get bumped down to 175 total HP. The logic behind the Mercy buff was what I guessed, they wanted to try it with the Widow nerf being in place. Turns out any character with reasonable hitscan damage in single shots breaks it anyways so it can't exactly stick :v
(The real most important thing learned is Pharah has all her limbs)

Anything that is being tested on the PTR is considered fluid, so it's not surprising that some aspects might not make it into the eventual patch. They're just commenting on what they have observed so far on PTR and I'm sure there will be more changes before the actual patch announcement. We already know they're working on new maps and that Summer skins are coming. Nothing has changed, and there's no new info or details on them.

Yep, knew zen's stuff and mercy's stuff wouldn't stick without some changes.
Seems like they're fairly happy with how Dva turned out.

Looks like they might have finally squashed the leaver penalty for winners in competitive.

Triple Hanzo.
I pocket Bastion for the first few opening seconds and then zoom out of there via a Pharah. Always gets a few kills.
What hacking can you even do on PS4 version so far?
ANY HANZO
continually being targeted by Soldier who keeps you from having a fun game as Pharah.

Hit 55 and I feel fine. It's been a long climb back and past my season high since dropping to 47. My advice? Play with people of a similar level. Unless you're a god-carry 60+ having a wildly varied team introduced lots of subtle problem, players with a lack flexibility, players unfamiliar with good strats or counters, etc.
I'm not a fan of hero stacking, but I'll miss double winston/double lucio on Anubis. Open with it in competitive, caught a team with their pants town and doble-capped in three minutes. They tried to return the favor, and did, but it took them almost 5 minutes. Second round we go for it again and they fight us off at the first point but ultimately collapse and we rush point two and clinch. Final round all I want is not to hit sudden death. We open strong on them but they eventually collapse our team (we ditched symmetra) and it turned into a god damn brawl on point B but we held. We fucking held.
Noticing MM throwing random super-underdog games at me during win streaks. Like, we'll roll for 3-5 games and then MM suddenly take superlong and then we're matched with a team like 5 levels higher on average/ Both times they had two 68+ people. Naturally we got crushed. Didn't lose much level, thankfully but it felt vindictive.

Had a game yesterday where we had TWO Genjis on our team on Attack Hanamura, and they were both unable to deal with a single Bastion on Point B.
And towards the end of the match, one of them switched to.... Hanzo.
Nah, if the buzz is getting weaker it's because people are starting to finish their collection of skins they want on the heroes they play already out of the skins available. A new release of purple and yellow skins for their favorite heroes will get them buying again.
just found out i can't even post in the official forums cuz i'm on console. thanks Blizz. i guess you're getting console feedback there from double dippers.

I've started playing attack hanzo to play around in QP and I can still get gold in elims and obj elms.
Which just makes me question the skill level of the teams I'm in.
