what time should you be hitting lucio's pushback/tracer's recall/escape move #6 to escape from road hog's hook? I feel like I only manage it 50% of the time, or less.

If you know he has it, it's just luck of the draw who wins. You just have to constantly be on the move. If you see a Roadhog as Tracer, just keep blinking and hope he misses.

 

[Jarate]

quoting this so you cannot escape the shame of admitting that.

Dawg why do you think I play Totbjorn for 20 hours. Best angle to look at booty in the game

oh, ok :/

so my chances of escape are best if they are a bad road hog?

A good roadhog won't give you the chance to escape.
Unless the hook bugs out.

wait

console is still 20 tick isn't it?

 

[Skii]

Sorry I had to leave after one game. My internet was so bad. I literally was seeing everything 2 seconds after it happened. Surprised I even managed to get 7 eliminations in that game lol.

Internet problems is just what I need as season 2 is about to start.

Yes ;_;

Yeah, I find that whenever there's a Roadhog on the other team, I survive a lot longer if I'm jumping a lot, to throw off their hook aim. And if you're Lucio, keep a Amp It Up in reserve so that you can hammer on the Soundwave button to knock Roadhog back and then amp up your healing. In most cases, I'll get away.

Speaking of Tracer, just had one of my better matches with her on Volskaya. Twice I got to sneak up on a Bastion and totally shred him from behind on Point A, and on Point B blinked across the right flank gap over and over again to sneak around behind the enemy team and whittle them down. No matter how many times they did it, they never thought to look to their left. Tracer seems to be one of those characters where I'm either totally kicking ass, or feel like I'm contributing nothing; seems to be no in-between. But when it works out, she's so much fun to annoy with.

 

[Anne]

Yeah, good luck dodging anything on console :/

I dodge that shit on reaction on PC.

We gotta predict. 😭

Been there way too many times.

Why is roadhog holding a paddle.

The hard life of playing Mercy

Thanks for the games today. Gg. Head hurts from too much tracer so can't remember everyone I played with.

So, after a terrible Widowmaker match (in the brawl, which is terrible on its own) I finally decided to turn off mouse acceleration. It was on both on Windows and on the Logitech tool thingy. Feels kinda weird right now. I didn't boot up the game yet but I guess I'll have to re-adjust everything again, fug.

 

[ivanthebearable]

Are the servers down or something? I got booted and getting Game Server Connection Failed... Retrying over and over

Always turn mouse acceleration off.

Always turn mouse acceleration off.

I don't play shooters so I never felt the need to do it. I was on 1750 DPI before, now I think 950 is the closest to what was like before.

Be careful, i had the exact same problem yesterday and tried to rejoin over and over again, suddenly i got an EXP penalty for living too often.

Thankfully in my case it only lasted a few matches since i never left before.

I'm using 800 DPI and an in-game sense of 5.00 but i'm still on a 60 Hz monitor so i'm not sure how that effects your setup if you're on 144 Hz.

60Hz here too. In-game was 15 before, now I'm not sure. It was slightly lagging so I'll try later.

 

[pelicansurf]

Why is PTR down when I finally decided to finish my placement matches?!

 

[LiK]

aw yiss.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Shit, Tuesday seems to be my 'hell day' this semester. By the time I get home that night, or home the next day all my Gaf train peeps will already be done with their placement matches.

 

[Tensketch]

Urgh I'm not proud of it, but I definitely just wished death on a bastion spam team.

 

[Plywood]

Feels like it's taking age for the PTR stuff to get put up on main servers. whatyearisit.2016

And they just added that brawl, I hope the preload means they're about to release it.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

aw yiss.

What's different/better about it?

I'd like a review after you use it for a bit.

Seriously. It's taking forever.

Stay up late and play with me since it'll be morning for me.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

8am wake up on Wednesday.

I'd be willing to just put in the necessary work on this long weekend if it could free me up for Tuesday. But Physics 4410 is one of those classes where if you're aren't with a group/TA you'll just be bashing your head against the wall for hours. And we always meet on Tuesday. I'll do what I can to maybe play a few games Tuesday morning before I leave (pls patch early Blizz) then depending how I feel that night, I might be able to play that night. If not, it will have to be Wednesday afternoon :/

Oh sounds rough. Surprised you still got classes now? Thought they break up for summer. They do here at least. I won't be able to play much if at all when I get to the end of the month cos I'll be starting my masters programme.
