ran into a Symm troll today... fucking ugh. -__-

 

[Twookie]

cant log in at all, the only message i get when i reach the end of the queue is "Sorry, We were unable to log you into Battle.net."

 

[NeoRaider]

I guess servers are completely dead now?

Sombra gets wrecked by Rein. She is no where near OP like some people were crying about.

How does she get rekt by rein?

 

[TheLetdown]

Hacking while cloaked un-cloaks her, right?

 

[Satch]

hola

 

[Plesiades]

BUG: You can teleport inside the spawns... at least in Anubis.

Hacking while cloaked un-cloaks her, right?

Yep.

200HP hero gets rekt by hero who deals 75DMG / swing in rapid speed? No way!

Hacking while cloaked un-cloaks her, right?

Yes

 

[antitrop]

Hacking while cloaked un-cloaks her, right?

Ya, everything except her Translocator will take her out of invis.

You can both throw and teleport to the Translocator while invisible, though.

 

[DevilDog]

hola

Genuinely my favorite way of greeting people. Hola is up there with yo.
Loved my time in Spain just spamming Hola at whoever I could.

 

[Plesiades]

You can spray while invisible. Time for some spoops.

hmm, so novice Sombra gets 'rekt' by experienced Rein? I am in complete shock, tbh. >_>

 

[Marko_Baomoro]

LUCIO!

POTG 4 gold medals: kills, objective kills, time, healing
I'm on FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRE!

Sounds like a pretty bad Sombra. With her teleport and speed boost she should very rarely be in melee distance of a Rein.

 

[maouvin]

Won a comp match, 15 point to promotion, next two matches get cancelled because someone left.
Ok game, I get it, time to take a break.

Hello Overwatch GAF how you been.

Lucio op confirmed.

Please nerf.

 

[jediyoshi]

this queue 🤷

 

[Prelude.]

I don't even wanna play, just let me in the menus. What is this, Diablo 3?

 

[Plesiades]

There's no "Launch Day" video. Bummer.

We're so glad you enjoyed it! The rest of that movie doesn't actually exist. It was specifically made to be hacked. But some really talented people worked on it so I will pass it along to them that you would like to see the rest someday.

 

[skny]

You guys are so quick to jump into conclusions. Sombra is brand new, let people learn the hero before making comments like ''she destroys/gets destroyed by x hero'' , especially when it's a hero with insane outplay potential.

 

[Ricerocket]

Just got in, might be up again.

 

[Newtype-001]

Damn i actually really wanted that.

Yesterday she rekt everyone at all ranges. Today every hero reks her at all ranges.

 

[AaronMT86]

I give up staring at this queue screen.

 

[Twookie]

got in, then everything hitched, some numbers appeared on the bottom right side of the menu and then got kicked out again ¯\_(&#12484_/¯

 

[Jellie]

Got in. Computer froze. Had to restart.

 

[DevilDog]

Mess with the best and die like the rest.

Yah, I gotta echo this sentiment. People take highly anecdotal experience with a hero and make sweeping statements like "X REKS Y" or "Y REKS X", without putting absolutely any real though or consideration into what they are saying. Figuring out how well a hero does or does not work is going to take a lore more time than the barely any time Sombra has been available for testing on the PTR.

But yah, this is along the lines of people who start calling for nerfs just because their favorite hero got murdered by a specific adversary one too many times. Highly irrational and not a measured, reasonable response.

 

[Permanently A]

1 v 1 is disgustingly fun

 

[KLoWn]

I just have to check, the fact that OW ain't letting me on the PTR is because of five million people trying to get in at the same time, and not because it's not released in EU yet?

 

[Satch]

Wait, the week long offseason between competitive Season 2 and Season 3 is the week of Thanksgiving? For fucks sake Blizzard.

lmao i gotta admit, i kinda dislike when they do this

like with sombra, i could have been playing her this past weekend and practicing during all that free time but now she's out during my work week

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

I do like these initial impressions though. I was very vocal about how OP she sounded. And I still think all of her abilities make her a potentially great/really annoying character. It will take time to test everything and see how strategies evolve, but even stuff like "Tracer destroys her in a 1v1" implying her gun wasn't as good as I thought it was is encouraging.

there's no EU PTR servers(everyone plays on the US server), and the servers can only handle 10k concurrent players, so the servers are being hammered for sure-

Ah, alright. Thanks for the info.

 

[AaronMT86]

Only a 10K player cap on PTR currently.

 

[RecRoulette]

Ooh, I never knew this. No wonder the queues are savage.

 

[Tovarisc]

I don't get why anyone from EU would want to play on PTR. That 200+ ms latency skyrockets input latency.

 

[Dartastic]

Welp, I just played a couple games as Sombra. I think I have a new character I'll play as when I'm going on offense.

 

[ivanthebearable]

The short little chiptune music when you hover over the arcade option is cute

 

[Twookie]

I don't get why anyone from EU would want to play on PTR. That 200+ ms latency skyrockets input latency.

the latency hasn't been an issue for me

Spoiler

as in it wasn't an issue when Ana hit PTR because I cannot log in into this PTR right now

, and I kinda just want to try out the new content ¯\_(&#12484_/¯

 

[DevilDog]

Is someone in? Cause I can't even get in queue.

 

[Prelude.]

Welp, RIP Ana grenade accuracy. The translocator is gonna destroy my aim.

 

[ivanthebearable]

I'm laughing at her teleport line: "Cheers love... Heh."

 

[Kor of Memory]

Welp, RIP Ana grenade accuracy. The translocator is gonna destroy my aim.

I wish there was some consistency to throwing things in Overwatch.

Tracer's Bomb
Junkrat's Mines
Widow's Mine
Ana's Grenade
Sombra's Relocator
Torb's Armor packs

All these things have different throwing Arcs.

You pointing this out made me realize that the reason I suck so much with Tracer's Pulse Bomb is probably because I play Junkrat way more often and use his Concussion Mine way more. Dang.

 

[Salarians]

Does Sombra's hack affect 76's sprint? Because that'd be fucked up.

 

[xaosslug]

i wish when peeps spam 'I need healing!' and I'm respawning a voice would say to just that player 'your healer has died and is returning from spawn, because you didn't protect them' or something. >_>

 

[labx]

Guys, hey! where is a good source of Lore for this game? I need to catch up!

Thanks in advance
