Just realized in 50 S2 comp games so far I haven't once played Kings Row. Did they remove it or is it just me?

On second thought even Dorado I've maybe played once in S2 -- or maybe not at all, I can't even remember.

played KR yesterday. I still haven't seen't the new map in comp, tho.

 

[ivanthebearable]

For me it's been Temple of Anubis, Eichenwalde, Ilios (I'm SO TIRED OF THIS MAP), and Route 66.

Haven't gotten a single other map. I miss King's Row

 

[LucidMomentum]

I mostly get Ilios, Lijiang, Dorado, and 66 for my games.

Spent an entire Defense and attack effort with only 5 people, looking for a 6th. Got a loss of course. Fuck you blizzard.

Were you in ranked? It doesn't find other people so that they don't get put in unfair matches.

But if it's QP, then yeah...

From my experience on PS4, often times players will not talk until someone else talks and proves they're not an asshole. Just saying "What's up everyone" has often gotten at least 1-2 players talking immediately and then sometimes more will switch over during the game.

It's actually more likely I get into a game with others talking than with nobody else talking. I shed a tear when I see that it's just me in Team Chat or 1 other person because that definitely makes a difference if your callouts can be heard by 5 other players versus none or 1.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

I had 4 pulse bomb triple kills in one game.

 

[Jellie]

Phew that Hollywood game.

 

[MG310]

Guy picks Ana as a second healer to defend Volskaya, don't think he actually healed anyone once the match started, just stayed on the point waiting to die and then quit right before the first point fell.

Thanks.

There's no backfill in competetive. When someone leaves, you'll be a man down from that point on.

 

[R0ckman]

Game seems to be putting me in bad matches today in QP on matches basically completed or players that cant kill anything.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

hey you know who's like stupid good now

Mercy

That sounds like paradise.

 

[optimus8936]

That felt good sleep darting a Rein that tried to charge out of a Mei ult.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

That was fucking awesome.

That was a good game all around.

You guys still playing.

 

[ViviOggi]

They must have messed with the potg algorithm again, rezzes everywhere

 

[MarioHead3]

You were Mei and you destroyed their souls on top of killing them.

I was using D.Va.

I think it means you destroyed Torbs turrets as well as having either a 100% or near enough 100% elimination share.

There were absolutely zero turrets in that game.

 

[GunnerZ]

Cant wait till they nerf Hanzo to make him as useful as torbjorn. It will be great lol

 

[AngryMoth]

Anyone? Solo queue is killing my soul

 

[Data West]

Genji problems? in September the year of our lord, 2016?

Nah I miss the old genji tho

don't worry

it'll happen to their faves next. and then they'll know

 

[Azoor]

Seems like Mercy replaced Bastion as the most seen hero in POTG.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Y'all can take Zarya now she is bullying my DVa

 

[ZangBa]

Watching our D'va get murdered by recon Bastion, lol I just can't believe some things.

 

[Shake Appeal]

don't worry

it'll happen to their faves next. and then they'll know

 

[LiK]

I don't find Zarya that big a deal as DVa. I just shoot her from afar when she's not bubbled and Zarya players always get distracted by it. Just boost away when she gets close.

 

[stupei]

Harsh.

 

[Pachimari]

Are any of you playing on PC right now? And not competitive because I'm only lvl. 11.

EU?I might play a bit of QP later

 

[Pachimari]

I'm EU but playing on the US servers.

Eh i hope u got friends that make it worth buddy,adding more ping on competitive shooters aint a good thing

 

[Satch]

don't worry

Protect Zarya 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢🏋🏼🏋🏼🏋🏼🏋🏼🏋🏼🏋🏼🏋🏼

 

[Alucrid]

so if someone already finished their placement matches i'm assuming they don't win or lose anything when they group up with others for their placement matches. is that right?

If u stack more than 3 ppl u might get a premade enemy team or worse...U should stack at most 3 ppl to make it optimal

My online friends are playing on the US servers, and that's more important than anything. Although I might shift to EU servers, because of the times.

[edit] Oh wait, my profile can play on both EU and US!?
If so, please add me.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Not a great game, but Ana is legit. Nano boosting Optimus was fun. Sorry for the sub par play I've been off today. GG's

 

[slightconfuse]

Losing SR Becasue people on your team left is really dumb

 

[xaosslug]

from my understanding if you placed as platinum/gold/diamond/whatever, you don't lose that, but you lose/gain points (your XXXXSR) to rank up when you win or lose. I think.

 

[Ramirez]

Docking me 25 points for a loss when the opposing team has a 150 point advantage is a joke. Putting me on a team with Platinums against a group of 4 with a Master, an even bigger joke. God this matchmaking is SHIT.

 

[LiK]

Mei random keeps announcing her Ult is ready and never used it. Thanks.

Yea i think u can.Since i cant find ur battle tag on the list,add me from there

 

[protonium]

The rank point system seems terrible. I get 20-40 points a win, but lose 50+ per loss... I won 5 games in a row and only gained ~150 points. Lost 3 in a row and it erased my gains... What?

 

[Tovarisc]

Hard not to feel like that matchmaking intentionally makes sure you don't gain SR in any meaningful way, more likely to lose. Getting stomped game after game at some point stops being 100% coincidence when it happens after 1-2 wins.

I wasn't great as Zen either. I need to play him more to get a feel for the aim and battlefield placement. Good games though.

didn't blizzard say at one point that comp rank was not supposed to be a progress bar, but an assessment of your skill level? not shitting on you or anyone else who feels "stuck", and I know if I played comp I would probably feel the same. just wondering if maybe that is the intention of the matchmaking
