Thanks for encouraging me to play Bastion, thread. If it doesn't work out I can always Soldier or Pharah but if it does... oh boy. Just had the most wicked game on attack in Kings Row where I went Bastion for the final point. The damage I dished out was insane. Plus I get to shred Reinhard shields which are always super annoying

Is this new?

I just saw this in Numbani and it's about the global hacking spree.

Probably not. There have always been references to Sombra in Dorado.

I get so tilted by these annoying fuckers who selectdeselectselectdeselect-spam in the character select phase. I'm gonna adopt a zero tolerance policy for that shit from now on and just bail out, well in QP at least.
I'm not sure if it's nearly always widow/hanzo/torb/bastion pickers who do that, or if i just get extra triggered when they do it and it just seems that way.

lmao dude, you serious? this shit triggers you? :lol

Well, now I've seen everything.

I would rather sit in a van with jim carey and jeff daniels. That would be much much less annoying.

 

[V-Faction]

I get triggered by Reinhardt's cheerful personality. Like, shut up dude, you're too happy, stop being so friendly, your head doesn't even fit your helmet.

Gold tier really sucking fun and will out of me game at the time. People doing so bizarre or straight out garbage line ups. 0 - 1 - 5 and similar line ups sounds like winners right? Come to Gold tier and enjoy them with me!

Fucking Gold...

I had to climb out of silver to get to this trash can. I havent touched comp much since then.

One thing I notice in some intense higher level matches is that its just one big meat grinding mess I was watching placement matches from one guy and I've had more fun with people a bit spread out, but it seems no matter what teir you are in the best strategy in for instance, payload maps is for everyone to divebomb and meatgrind on the payload.

 

[Nintendoga]

Man I played like 10 comp matches in a row, only lost 2. Got back 200 points I lost earlier in comp. Now that I'm prestige I'm being paired up with people near my level who actually know what they're doing.

Little more till Plat.

I was crying earlier. Our Zarya and their Zarya launched their ults in the same spot and sucked all 12 of us in together. That kill feed was going wild.

 

[Rocketz]

Just went 1-6 in comp today.

Salt levels through the roof.

The people I got stuff with today were actually unbelievable. Widows on KOTH, people just giving up and emotting in spawn, etc.

This was the absolute worst day I've ever had playing the game.

 

[R0ckman]

lmao dude, you serious? this shit triggers you? :lol

Its suppose to be a signal for everyone to choose that character.

 

[MarioHead3]

Its suppose to be a signal for everyone to choose that character.

Or just a dumb thing people do for fun. Either way, I see no reason to get upset about it.

My rule is if I get three losses in a row in comp I quit for the day. Nothing good comes out when you are on a losing spree.

on one hand, playing in small groups sounds good, on the other hand, what if your 3 random teammates are trash tier? At least in a group of 4-6 you have people you can talk to or know they aren't going Attack Torb more than half the games.

They're just giving recommendations for the team comp, what's so bad about that lol

Such a weird thing to be annoyed at.

 

[MaKTaiL]

Does anybody know if Overwatch will be patched to look better on PS4 Pro? I mean, the game already plays at 1080p/60fps with very little difference from the PC version. I expect it will play easily at 4K/60fps on Pro.

I just had a game with one dude spamming widow and the other torb for 20 seconds. how is that not annoying and what isn't bad about that?

In Gold people make very odd and surprising plays too. Without any reason Rein blind rushes through my team and gets consufed when lands next to me aka Mercy, free kill. Stuff like that. Kinda works I guess, but also so stupid play.

 

[Rocketz]

I normally stick to this but all I needed for a gold weapon was 2 wins and I was just wanting that and I was going to be done for today.

That obviously didn't happen.

 

[HiiiLife]

How the fuck do I join match LATE with Zen and end up getting gold at FIVE kills.

I don't care if it's quick play. There is no excuse to suck this bad lol. What the hell was going on the 5-6 minutes prior.

 

[optimus8936]

Ignore it? Just pick your character and pay attention to something else for a minute.

Ah no not really, most do it to troll and be annoying.

Or the player that joins after i leave has been wanting to play a 6 man torb comp all day and now everyone is happy, yeah?

 

[antitrop]

Ugh, got matched up with the same McCree main that can't aim two games in a row.

 

[Ramirez]

I wish I was a fly on the wall in some of these matches I have with Mei. I've had people walk past people to try and get me, or just blow their ult on me in an empty room, lol. Full tilt.

 

[LiK]

Ugh, got matched up with the same McCree main that can't aim two games in a row.

He'll learn he should play someone else. Someday.

I might main McCree for S3. I got Junkrat and D.va on lock.

 

[SmackAttack]

3 wins, 1 draw, and 3 losses in my placement matches so far. Feeling good about my chances later.

 

[Nazo]

Did they do something to Roadhogs hook? I know they were supposed to fix it but like almost every time I hook someone they end up to the side of me. This hardly seems like a fix...

 

[antitrop]

He was so bad I had to switch off Mercy to Soldier 76 just to get the payload to the checkpoint. Then I switched back to Mercy and the payload never moved another inch. I can't play 2 people at the same time. ><

 

[Jarate]

I really need to get to Diamond soon :| I havent been able to play the past couple of days, I reached ~2800.

Playing with mid 50s kind of blows, although I can carry really hard when I do play.

What's with the snarky reply? I was only trying to give advice, yeesh. No wonder you get triggered by that.

It was supposed to fix it, but it just broke it even more. Now it's only a 50/50 chance if you can actually kill them, maybe even less of a chance.

Medals are based on players in game at that moment. You probably weren't the only backfill.

I'll be on later tonight if you want to try, I'm also 2820 or something.

We can hard carry teams to a glorious victory.

 

[antitrop]

There wasn't anything significantly wrong with Roadhog's hook last season, now I barely even play him anymore. Were they really trying to improve it? Because it was most definitely a nerf.

Can't even blame Roadhogs for "choking" their shot anymore, it's the game's fault now.

 

[optimus8936]

They tried to fix the thing about dragging people into walls, and while they did fix that, they created so many other problems.

 

[Anne]

I think they were trying to make it more consistent on the receiving end. Whatever it is didn't work well.

 

[Papercuts]

I think they were trying to make it more consistent on the receiving end. Whatever it is didn't work well.

I actually think they overall went to buff the hook so even if those sketchy wall hooks happened, it would be smoother for Roadhog to shoot the person.

He's my main by a longshot and they genuinely did make those better, the person resets to where the hook hit so you don't get those wall scrape hooks where you need to basically guess where they're going to fall. But it makes things like the gif above where I hooked the Pharah and it seemed to reset her back in midair as if she was behind the column for some reason.

Specific targets like Genji always were wonky and still seem to be prone to this happening, and the other thing that seems to happen is a point blank hook puts people farther away which is annoying.

 

[Plywood]

When they pick Junkrat on attack

When you Reinhardt and get Nanoboosted

When you volunteer to be the only support

When their Mercy res the whole team

When Lucio amp it up

When Hanzo aim is true

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Bwahahaha i'm dying.

Awesome post, Plywood.

Edit: But it should be Bastion instead of Junkrat on attack.

 

[optimus8936]

Tfw when you get a quad with Genji...and you dot get the trophy.

Solo Quick Play is a guaranteed loss for me rn

Is it just bugged?

Also am i right in thinking that a close up barrage is one of the few things trancendance can't heal through? Had a graviton barrage combo last night that seemed to have killed everyone even though i was transcending.

 

[Maximo]

Probably been said before but where the fuck is my Thunder Guard Skin

Tone it down alittle and give me the skin with the new ability effects!

 

[Moonkeis]

Solo QP? Or did you mean comp?

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I personally think she's in a better position then where she was originally, but I get what you're saying. Mei is definitely the Defense Hero that lives up to the concept of creating a huge number of headaches for the advancing hordes of enemy players to deal with.

Yeah, this is how I feel now. She actually feels like a defence character should, which is much more than can be said about r rest if the defence heroes.

I've mentioned it before but I think you have to get each killing blow, and with the sword slashes. No dash or reflect kills, and no letting teammates kill steal.
