give me that AOE full heal Ult


ranked or level? i assume going in 1 by 1 to die die die at the same spot they died died die.

Pretty much.

Tracer rushes to point, dead. Dva rushes to point, dead. Soldier rushes to point, dead.

Also when we're attacking all I did was escort a rank 20 guy who wants to be bastion as reinhardt and we won.
 

Prelude.

It feels so bad when you're having an amazing Widow performance killing Bastion, Hanzo and other Widows but the team still can't capture the point.
 
What I think they could do with Sombra is make her abilities work like Hanzo, where her abilities are bullets in her weapon, and one ability allows her to shoot down a healing station similar to Soldiers, and her other ability allowed her to shoot out a smoke mine that slowly damaged and disoriented enemies. Not sure what the Ult could be. Maybe a large AOE heal?

R3 would work better for reflect I think. I haven't used him much but it seems like a fine place as all it needs a light push without moving your thumb away.

You're gonna want melee there. Melee is crucial for Genji's most damaging combo and it's just plain useful when you're jumping around an enemy, throwing fans and meleeing.
 
Looking at my stats, I've played a shit ton of Lucio. Not by choice though. I end up having to carry 3 Hanzos through most matches. I don't even get any love at the end... sure let's all vote for that guy who got POTG with his stupid Hanzo ult. Oh well, at least I can be proud of my 70% win rate with Lucio. Seriously, why then fuck does everyone want to play as Hanzo? He's boring.

Holy fuck, I'm finally on a team that knows what it's doing and then after we win the first round a member of our team leaves. Which blows, but I think our team can still win, and then another member leaves. Why. Why. Why.

AOE heal is Zenyatta's job.

You ready to get HYPED!?

She looks so OLD. Not in MY Overwatch.

/s

Can't wait to play a support who doesn't have to be on the front lines so much, I hope.

YESH, old Sombra
 

Spirited

Mine is pretty and pink
She will probably have a skin that makes her look human but from what we know she will probably have a full body armor as default.

So it's not gonna please the "I want old woman" crowd as much :/

I've been playing this game a lot the last few days and I was getting major tetris effect when I was trying to sleep last night haha
 
Can Blizzard really release Sombra after this maintenance? it will probably be on PTS first for a few weeks and then released around Blizzcon, plus we need a good lore/teasing cinematics.

There are too many Sombra connections to Dorado and Ana's definitely not Mexican.

Just because she took the callsign/alias of Sombra doesn't mean she is Mexican only that she was operating there and when locals/whoever called her Sombra (or "shadow" in their language) it stuck. Soldier 76 operated in Dorado (as shown in his short) and he's not Mexican. Also, he has a file in the level where he is called Soldado: 76 (along side a Jack Morrison one) and we know he's Jack Morrison and not some Mexican guy.

What're the chances of me getting the animated Ilios spray if I'm rank 62 (and climbing, I usually earn a level with every win), in the top 9%, and am ranked around #2,900 globally? Don't I need to be in the top 500 in my server to get it? How do I make sure that happens?

Wait, isn't that spray the reward for completing the placement matches? The competitive mode announcement at least made it look that way (scroll down to rewards):

Does anyone use the included ps4 mic? I am having a hard time going into the ps4 interface and sending a quick message to a group, eventually i'm going to have to cave and use voice chat somehow. Are there good budget headsets? Can you have it so only voice chat goes through the headset and game sound through tv speakers/surround?

I used it frequently with Destiny and it was fine, and yes, you can set it so only voice chat comes through headset!

Everyone who completes the placement matches gets an Ilios spray, but if I recall only the top 500 in a server get an ANIMATED Ilios spray, in which the lighthouse is shinning light around and the ocean waves are going up and down.

Still without luck
Does the game make you wait a minute if you leave a match right after it ends? I keep getting these 1:11 wait times for expected :12 ones.

I used the included mic for a year, and it's fine, especially when compared to no voice communication. The cheap ps4 licensed mono headset you can get at best buy has a nicer boom mic, and is only $20 or so.

Voice through mono headset, game audio through surround speakers was my default setting for a long time.

This whole ranking system is so fucked up. My team is underdog (whatever that may affect). Both teams fail to capture the point on Hollywood, we end up attacking due to bullshit sudden death. Almost capture the point, 5% remaining but fail and as a result i lose 60% rank....i mean seriously?

The game acknowledges we play a tough match by labeling us underdog but i still lose a fuckton of ranking? Get out of here
