I love playing symettra even before the rework but the problem with her was what was said in the developer video, she was good and fun, but only in very specific maps and scenarios due to how hard it was to rebuild turrets and if the teleporter dies it sucks
I play with grandmasters who main DPS and I still get gold medals a lot. Sometimes you could just be doing a really good job. Don't take it away from yourself lol. D.Va and Zarya are very good carry characters. They can both block a lot of damage while dealing a lot of damage at the same time. D.Va and Zarya can easily average the same amount of damage as a DPS character.

Yeah DVA and Zarya honestly outputs a lot of damage.

It tells me there are some balancing issues if Tanks are regularly putting out more damage than DPS.
You can only get 3 boxes a week from Arcade, but yes.

Which is fantastic for people who only get to play a few hours a week

Change the camera how exactly?
Third person or first?

It's third person and won't show first person
I just used the feature just now and seems to switch based on character. Genji was third and then mercy was FPS.

Your username should give you the answers you seek.
Or X/A if you're on PS4/XB1, respectively.
Haha thanks. That did the trick.

It's mostly for people who hate themselves.
You get the same amount of XP as you would in QP.

Only thing comp has that QP doesn't are competitive points which are used to get the golden guns.
And the season sprays for participating if you're interested in those.
Aside from that comp just gives you a rank and not much else.

Yea, some people insist on playing Pharah even though she's completely useless. The same would apply to Genji.

As long as Genji is visually and mechanically appealing, no one will ever stop playing him. Same goes for every character really.
Soldier kills you ridiculously quickly now. Already dead by the time you realise he's shooting at you.
Nerf helix damage to compensate for his buffs.

What time will this season end?

How is it possible for someone to have 144 hours as Bastion in competitive. Why would someone main him for that long.

Her teleporter and turrets never looked like they were made from lights either.

It's the same animation as her current shield cast animation iirc.
There generally seem to be a lot of missing assets for the rework, including sounds and icon art.
I assume that they will fix any assets, and just wanted to get the rework out into the wild so they can observe that shit before they bring out the new map.
At least they nerfed ult charge.
She does the double handwave for that though, and has a highlight of where to place the thing. It gave me the impression that she actually placed something down and then did the hand motions to make her light wizardry work.
I wish they'd remove the center gizmo and just have it be a piece of light and add a forward motion to the hand wave.
Order must be restored.

Pray.
I hit 2999 and I lost all motivation to play ranked. Hold on to your butt and hope for the best.
Quick Match
Estimated Wait: 20-40 seconds.
Actual Wait: 200-400 seconds.
Not to mention too many people leave a game EVERY GAME and I get thrown back into queue.
EDIT: While I'm at it, Torb needs a buff! Way too many people I am playing against know how to shut him down. He's my borderline favorite hero and he fucking sucks. Also, matchmaking is still total horseshit since closed beta.

I thought Lucio was my most compatible hero but now that I've been learning Zarya I'm having second thoughts. She is amazing. I can dominate with her more than any other hero aside from maybe hog or 76 but neither of them can also block thousands of damage at the same time.
I mean, assuming Symmetra comes out and is used a good amount (a balanced support should be getting above 20% in meta reports 'theoretically') there's only a few more heroes that need to be looked at, the list is shortening:
Bastion
Junkrat
Torbjorn
Ana vs. Mercy
Pharah vs. the World
Possibly reworking Lucio?
Tanks in general DPS wise?
And 76 and D.Va could be too strong, also Sombra is a ??? atm

they basically MM you with shitheads when you're about to reach a rank up. it's always safer to have at least a 2-man group with a buddy who can play well. i still remember when Vault and I were matched up with a team of 4 guys and they were so damn awful. we literally carried that entire team. we won at the end when Vault used Zarya Ult combine with my Dva Ult. I think one of those guys emoted Thanks! at the end, lol

Anyone else annoyed with how some heroes are so easily countered?
Loke, there are so many basic abilties to counter ultimates like Deadeye. I hate how a good team will use things like reind shields or defense matrix or ice walls
I know its necessary and allows for some skillful countering, but there just seems to be sooo many counters to some operators
Is this just how it is because heroes like McCree have it easy elsewhere? (Like his DPS)
Edit: I think my big issue is that some of these trophies require me to get 4 kills with ultimates. It's too impossible at this stage in the game's lifecycle
I know a kill or two with an Ultimate is very possible and more than useful.
