Enjoying a decent win streak with D.Va tonight. God, it feels great to get some wins in after the last two nights.

 

[Data West]

I do raise my sensitivity a bit with Winston from the norm but at the same time, it feels REAL jarring when I play Winston by comparison

 

[Dead Prince]

Every random game I play tonight is *insert insane frustration here*.

I'm on an 8 game losing streak, fucking yay. Why are pubbies so AWFUL on PS4.

Edited to calm down.

RIP

mouse DPI is at 550 right now. in-game is between 6-8.5 depending on char
but it may be messed because i play in borderless window so it's never right tbh.

 

[Jarate]

when the game decides to say fuck you, you're not going to win no matter how hard you carry!

 

[Ramirez]

I fucking hate when the game matches you up with the same people you just lost with.

Seriously, fuck this. Mix it up, or I'm gone.

 

[brian!]

mines at 1600 dpi, sens 6

 

[Dead Prince]

Seriously, fuck this. Mix it up, or I'm gone.

another loss they will scramble

 

[LiK]

QP is hardcore tonight. Trying to practice but they won't let me. lol

 

[Ramirez]

Seriously, fuck this. Mix it up, or I'm gone.

Happens way too often in competitive. Just got back to back ass kickings.

 

[LiK]

Wow, playing as Genji with a control scheme I like. I don't even care if I kill them. Just jumping around distracting them was really hilarious. Still need to get used to the New button placements.

 

[Soulflarz]

yo mccree is FUN on low sensitivity

 

[toastyToast]

It makes a big difference. Go as low as you can where you can still turn reasonably well.

 

[Superflat]

800 DPI with 4-5 in-game sensitivity is what I've been comfortable with. Helps that I got myself a XXL mouse pad lol

 

[Squire]

Mercy's gun is slightly higher DPS than D.Va's. By like 5%. Practically nothin'- but not nothin'.

Yeah, Mercy's gun is great and people are using it. I know I am. That's why they tried buffing her damage boost. Felt people were ignoring that for her blaster, which is totally the case.

Had a great moment in the last match where it was hectic payload overtime and I Mercy-pistol'ed the enemy Roadhog out of existence. Definitely satisfying.

 

[LiK]

Triple kill with D.Va Ult twice. Why can't I get a 4th?

 

[Soulflarz]

Yeah I'm shit with mccree on PC, feels pretty great. Gonna do awful with him to 25 on PC to try and learn him then just go reap comp high up.

MISSED 5 PERSON HIGH NOON CAUSE I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE WAIT TIMING >_>
(or rather, popped it maybe 5 frames early, everyone lived with 1 health, i died inside as they uturned and killed me)

 

[caesar]

Did I mention how hero stacking is a cancer in the balls? Because it is.

Like I said, I would LOVE to not care about my w/l ratio. But I can't help it.

I mostly main D.Va. I used to be good with Genju too, but I left him alone for a while and now I'm no longer good. My PSN is KingofBlades2278, if you want to look at my modest stats. Feel free to add me though, I want to build up my friendslist so I can play with other gaffers. I usually solo queue, which I feel is the real problem I have. Even losses are easier to bare if you actually talk to people while playing.

Checked out your comp stats.

Dva and lucio looks solid. Maybe try tracer or zen? Would play with you but im in korea and I assume youre US? My comp stats arent great either but tracer and zen have been successful for me lately. (Ps4) console peasant atm LUL

Highest rank was 59 but lost a few, only ever solo q'd in comp.

You flew too close to the sun.

Oh yeah, it's awesome. I usually get 2-5 eliminations with her per game at this point. Sometimes it's 7-10.

 

[Soulflarz]

You flew too close to the sun.

I'm completely fine with being shit at PC without reaper or lucio or roadhog (aka being trash with characters who need to actually precision aim) because I haven't really spent much time playing shooters on PC. Feels weird man.

Enjoying it though, level 9 for the night.

 

[LiK]

People who quit QP make me laugh.

 

[meshwork]

dpi advice
2200/15sensitivity is borderline insanity for mccree i assume <_>

There was a website going around that had collected sensitivity settings from various streamers/pros and most people seemed to play with 800 DPI and 6-8 in-game sensitivity. I know many non-pro people play way higher than that, but if you play a lot of games you should really get used to a lower setting. Not only is it better for aiming, it is also a lot better for your wrist. I'd imagine with your sensitivity you're on a highway to RSI problems. Next time you play, pay attention to how much tension you have to put on your wrist to achieve precise adjustments with your mouse (like tracking a player's head with tracer/soldier).

 

[Papercuts]

Seriously blizzard...what the fuck. Nice "underdog" abuse.

 

[Duraigo]

For those playing on PS4, do you guys any tips for getting better at aiming? Not for any specific character, just in general.

 

[Nudull]

I should be dead asleep by now, and yet, here I am. This game is crack. >.>

 

[Ramirez]

That was a great win to end my night, didn't think we stood a chance early in the game, TBH.

 

[Kurita]

Dear Mercys, there's no need to keep healing Rein when he's behind his shield and got full health, so in the meantime please use your damage boost on your other teammates

 

[exYle]

YUSSSSS got CP rank 60 AND the Nihon Genji and Soccer Lucio skins! Perfect way to end the night

Good ol' Hanzo. Haven't used you in a while.

You're a fucking killer Hanzo. Never thought I'd see the day

 

[Antiwhippy]

When you ask your team to stop playing TDM at the enemy spawn of numbani but they still do.

 

[Soulflarz]

Wait how is 74 showing even
Im 73 and top 500

YOURE SO CLOSE

For those playing on PS4, do you guys any tips for getting better at aiming? Not for any specific character, just in general.

This is why I went PS4->PC and Reaper->McCree

When you die to bunnyhoppers abusing the fact its annoying to aim on console, it doesn't feel like they earned the life at all :<

 

[Ramirez]

201, great timing on the summer boxes, lol.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Decided to break mei out for ranked.

Won my games.

Yay!

 

[LiK]

ROFL, i turned into that Asshole jumping bean Genji. Kept the capture point in Anubis from being captured by hopping around until my team respawned. We won....lol

 

[Papercuts]

Lol, I always seem to randomly get into a quick play match with Ramirez.

 

[Jarate]

I'm done for the night way too sleepy to keep playing

 

[LiK]

Fuck you Ramirez. I should rescind my friend request.

Erghhh...... tilted from just reading that

 

[Ramirez]

I thought you joined me, lol.

Fuck you Ramirez.

What'd I do?! Awful Widow play at 4 am, lol.

 

[Papercuts]

Haha nah, just randomly queued up.

 

[Don Draper's Hat]

Noticed a couple times last night that someone would quickly choose Torbjorn to defend, and with about 15 seconds before the attacking team starts they'll change to a Reaper or Hanzo.

Is this a new HILARIOUS thing people are doing, like putting up an Ice Wall to stop your own team from moving?

 

[LiK]

I didn't even care about the payload. Chased you down lol

Probably to make sure that torbjorn doesn't get chosen.

I've had a Mei throw up an ice wall at the very opening, preventing the whole team rushing up when we were SECONDS AWAY from making a comeback instead of straight-up losing.

That day, I knew of true evil.

Oh, you're Butch. I'll add you next time.

Damage boost is useless.

 

[Newtype-001]

Whats the best way to maximise damage when you put someone to sleep with ana?
I remember seeing it in a vid i cant find.

Something like shoot throw, healing pulse then punch.

This just happened to me when I played Genji. She napped me, then tossed the grenade that damaged me and melee'd me up close. It worked. I guess this is a well known tactic.

Shoot -> Melee -> Grenade

Another "combo" you can do is Shoot -> Sleep -> Shoot -> Grenade. If you're close enough, you can add a melee to it.
