Played him and his party 3x in a row two nights ago. 6man parties is a dead end when trying to rank up in competitive. I've had better luck rolling with one other person.

No one?
I don't have any solutions for you, other than confirm that McCree is still 100% hit scan. Hope someone here can help you out.

Shout outs to 20 tick
For what it's worth, when I'm in the training area I don't have these problems. Are those robots server side still or is this completely running locally?
You'd know if your top 500, you get an animation when you hit it and your rank doesn't show, it's just a cool icon.
Nothing wrong with going Bastion on Attack if your team isn't breaking a point
I had an icon with a white or golden background instead of the dash in my placement matches. What did this mean?

Got 124% kill participation with D.Va.
I didn't realize I was doing that well.

Glitch, it used to display top 500 player randomly
Rankings are kinda broken in placement matches. That's the icon you're looking for though.
Definitely something wrong with it when I see him dead in a pile of robot guts because Genji kept smoking him. Sticking with it the whole match when it obviously isn't working is very stupid.

Turrets count towards it.

This was on IIlios. There weren't any turrets.

Weird. No idea then. Maybe shields?
Revives?
I know, it was bugged, did they ever fix it? Over buff would be way off if the icon is fixed, because I didn't have that at 76 despite OB's stats saying otherwise.

Overbuff is only showing the people who sign up for overbuff.
.
Overbuff is stacked for looking good, even moreso than masteroverwatch weirdly enough.
You'd think top 500 players would be most likely to use a site like that though. I don't think there'd be that much of a discrepancy, anyway.

It doesn't even have a lot of the pro players I think.
Yea, really. It has over 100K registered for PS4. If you're top 10,000, I'd bet anything you've checked the site, lol.

I'm afraid I have embraced the dark side. I have started to rationalise stacking heroes. During a pub match where our Genji refused to take out a really annoyingly placed turret
, I became a ninja myself. We still lost, since no one was healing any more at that point, but I don't regret the decision. That turret was shut down for the rest of the match, and at least we were able to advance again.
It's all downhill from here. If someone spots me taking pointless pot-shots as the third Hanzo on a team, please intervene.
because he was too busy with the ever so important job of sniping at Ana and Reaper

So does this actually mean, if I lock my FPS to 60, visuals/tick-rate should be more coherent?

I've gotten like 5 legendary drops in my last 10 loot boxes. Unfortunately, one of them was Zarya's Industrial skin, but I won't try to question my luck.
GG dude. Always a pleasure.
Not really, it's a good generalized idea, but I wouldn't use it for tracking that much. A lot of players don't think of rank minute to minute, especially a lot of the higher up ones who aren't thinking about it.
See this.
Only glitched
And nah I know plenty who never check it- think of everyone good who isn't googling the meta for their mains and such!
More like lock it to 20 :v
It wont matter much what your FPS is, the client just updates actions at a very slow rate. Go put some friends in a "high bandwidth mode" custom game and see what 60 tick feels like.

Same. And, to answer your question, my secret is that I never sleep.
Actually, I don't work during the week.
All waiting on that Nano-Boost PotG.
Oh, I'm on vacation this week so that's why I'm on at insane hours lol
At least bad Genji players tend to rush into combat or try to contest a point. With his low HP, he's not much of a feed either. Bad Hanzo players just stand at the back and do jack shit. They can kill with their ults but if they don't time them with a team push it's useless. Then after you lose, you still have to suffer by watching the useless Hanzo get POTG! Lol.
This is why Hanzo is the only hero that I don't play. I know I suck playing as him and I don't wanna be a detriment to my team. So it's better to play a hero I know how to play depending on the composition of my team. This is why it's a good idea to be good at at least one hero per category (Tank, defense, etc.)
Been practicing how to be a better Widowmaker though.

Yeah exactly. Why is this not a thing? It seems so obvious. I really wonder what Blizzard's reasoning for sudden death is.

That's the way the pro players handle Payload. No idea who thought sudden death was a good idea.
I'd like to see it go to this as well. I'd also like them to count every CP on a capture point as a point. If one team makes it to the 3rd CP on Anubis B, and the other team only got to the 2nd CP, why do both teams only have 1 point?
