i think one of the things people just struggle with at mid/low levels of the game is simply going in when ur playing attack. like if someone on your team has gone in and drawn the attention of three enemy players, then the other five of you have a numbers advantage on the three that are still present and can make progress

I think the idea was to spread it out but who knows how it will work out.

there would no longer be any complaints about no-one in pub games picking support

Ana might be a top 3 overall pick if you have to capture an objective point.
She might be my go to even when competitive starts.

Yup, there's a lot more than just knowing how to aim and kill. If you're not taking advantage of openings then you're doing worthless damage. Whats the point of kills and damage if you don't capitalize.
I think Ana can be very useful in the current meta once people realize sleep dart and nanoboost are absurdly powerful. But there's no way she can be a solo healer easily. Ana + any support minus Sym can go a long way.
Tell me about it. Just now on Hollywood, there was a Roadhog in the choke point for the first point and I was doing everything to take him down as Genji whilst our Reinhardt had his shield up the entire time. He was under no immediate threat and has enough HP to tank a few hits before going back to his shield. We even had a Mercy ffs.
But yeah, as I like to play flankers, I do a good job of taking down 2 people defending whilst the rest of the team wait at the choke point but almost never do they realise the team has an advantage and push up. I'm literally left by myself to fight 4 players or worse, they take so long to push up, the players I've just killed have already made their way back from respawn.
What a turn around.
Hopefully people start playing support so I don't have to.

I'm a born again Ana user.
I agree with all of this.
I played a lot of games as lucio where as soon as I realized we had gotten a solid pick on the other team, I'd speed boost and go in, hoping my team would follow, only to die and realize no one had followed me

Just for the interwebs.
Shimada has a fox girl ninja healer younger half-sister.

I definitely want at least one more animal character.
Maybe the bear that Zarya wrestles in that spray. Make that thing a playable character.
That or someone with an attack dog.
I haven't been able to connect on PS4 for the last two days, keep getting a BC-101 error. Restarted everything I possibly can. What gives, is there a DDOS or something going on?
EDIT: So, I think Adventure Capitalist screwed it up. I had been jumping centuries ahead via system clock and forgot to set it back after getting all the trophies. Reset it and now I can play Overwatch.
Long story short, apparently you can't login to Overwatch on the PS4 of your system clock is set to 2099. Huh.

Low to mid levels don't know when to retreat. A lot of them hold forward and don't think about the damage they are doing to their own team by feeding the other teams ults. Yeah, you might have delayed them from capping point A on Hollywood for an extra 15 secs but it does nothing to help your team.
The use of high ground is another big one that stands out to me. When I was soloing queuing through the 50's, not a single person uses the high ground advantage. It's been like that in every FPS ever made, if you have the high ground you have the advantage. Once I broke through in the 65 and up range, teams are always fighting for that particular advantage.
make their ult a sword that throws healing dragons
Scatter Arrow is dumb https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqvvRinvAOw&feature=youtu.be
Yep, it was the former, & it's the reason why I lost my cool. Every match was a case of going against a barrage of heavy damage dealing teams, so not only were the matches lasted longer than they had any right to be, but my teammates got stomped in some form. We will do fine and win the first two rounds, but then the tables will turn and the opposing team will wreck our shit.
And it's hard to be happy if this will be a reflection of how the next season will turn out for me. Especially as I've been trying to not let things be a repeat for Season One for me.

Community has been so angry lately. Every match has someone bitching now.
Thats because the comp people are mixed in with the qp people and its pissing everyone off

This game in general just brings out bitchiness. I'm convinced for a lot of people it's a "I'm not confident enough in my actual life to be assertive so this game is a vent for my frustrations and insecurities" game.

The sound design in this game is so good. I don't know if it is the atmos technology or just blizzard wizardry but I can always tell where someone is just from the sound alone. I've been playing Bioshock lately and it is incredibly jarring how I hear someone right next to me when they're across the room. I know it's a 9 year old game but I thought it was interesting how much Overwatch conditioned me to trust sound cues.

So one thing I really don't like about the tournament casts is them almost always showing the perspective of one player, instead of using the camera to show the entire team fight. Like right now in the match of Rise Nation vs Complexity, they had PoV of Complexity's Genji because he was ulting, but Rise Nation's Reaper dropped a massive ult, and we saw nothing except for the killfeed.

Lose first round of KOTH.
Switch to Roadhog and utterly destroy the other team. 38-6 from that point on gold everything it was amazing. We came back to win.
Message from opponent:
'You must be the biggest fag i ever seen play'
'You mad?'
'You sucked! Kept hooking and healing like a bitch(???). Get better fag.'

Ugh I got to wait another week minimum for season 2 and Genji nerfs. :|
I played as a Roadhog against a premade group and dominated them all. I proceeded to get 8 commends and compliments from them!
we're not talking about stats. we're talking about cosmetic items like skins etc.

I've so far only gotten one angry message and that was really close to launch.
Not gonna lie, I'm jealous.
I think one of the biggest issues is how new the game is, so observers and casters are not very good at anticipating plays and catching all the action.
Compare that to the TF2 international event that just finished, where the production team has honed FPS casting to an art over the years. :X
I got a message from a dude telling me to leave before the next match or I was going to get royally fucked
We won
