Welp, I know what skin I'm getting next, that's really cool.
Damn is a swearword? When did that happen?
Oh wow this is amazing. I thought I heard her say wanker during the weekend and it all makes sense now because I had just got one of the punk skins in a loot box.
This has actually made my day.

I want Sombra!¡!¡!
See that you do!
I actually find her to be more endearing and relatable for these swears. :lol It's just a shame I prefer her regular skin, where she doesn't swear.
Does wanker? Certainly not in the US.

I've seen this been mentioned before, but I just wanted to say that it's the little details like this that really make the game feel alive. Especially all of the sound work. It's super impressive.
Me too. PS4 player here, so haven't even tested her out. I'm super excited for this whole update. We're probably looking at Nov. 22nd, right? Ana took two weeks in PTR, I believe.
Maybe one day ;_;

Zen is the king for sure, shame Ana is a much better pick atm (even though I love using Ana). I'm still waiting for the day I'm slept by an Ana as Zen so I can use the "I dreamt I was a butterfly" voice line to perfection.

Are you playing the brawl? Those have nerfed rewards, who the fuck knows why, with those exact same numbers.

That confirms the new PTR changes will not come until after that weekend, i.e. a day before or after Season 2 concludes.

Yep, seems like it. I was hoping for next week, but I expected the 22nd, so oh well.
This and Ana sets a solid precedent, so I guess we can expect two weeks from PTR to live for new characters in the future.
Cool. I know a few people who could benefit from a free weekend. Was hoping for this weekend but that's a little bit soon if they're just talking about it now.

I was. That makes sense. Well even less reason to play that mode then.
Spam discords in a graviton surge or any other enabler ult. I got it on PC when a reinhardt earth shattered and mei froze them so luckily had two enabler ults. On PS4 got it randomly on a final point attack as the enemies came out one at a time so it was easy to discord and move to the next so that might also be a good method.

Lmfao I played a few matches and an Ana accidentally nanoboosted me as Lucio twice (in different matches).. I am officially that guy.
I secretly get a kick out of it, but only if we already have the upper hand.
Edit: I recorded it but it's nothing special. I just installed this so I wanted to try out sharing a recording.

So Battlenet asked me to restart to apply an update, so i did, then I signed back in, and as soon as I do, it says there is some unexpected error and a box pops up with a code and a comment box for me to say what the error was.
Has anyone come across this? Its literally not letting me get into battlenet now
Edit: nvm, I literally just uninstalled and re-installed the launcher and now it works

IDDQD is streaming PTR/Sombra competitive for anyone interested:

Conbox vs Lunatic Hai happens in one day and eight hours.
For anyone wondering, the former has Zunba (the parkour Zarya) and the latter ryujehong, Miro and Esca.
Reunited plays after that.

So what's the theory on the meta post Sombra?

If Blizzard can get Arcade rolled out before the free weekend that would be huge. It only mentioned the weekly brawl, but if they could, that would be awesome.
This is awesome, did Gambler McCree and B.va ever get their special voice lines?

Her movement abilities feel like choke points are going to be easier to get through.
My umpteenth post about Sombra, she seems pretty strong. A lot of people are complaining about the spread of her weapon, but at the right range it absolutely shreds. She is an excellent counter to Ana, Winston/Tracer/Genji have problems with Ana because of sleep dart and bionade, but Sombra can sneak behind with stealth and shut both of those abilities down, which makes her a sitting duck.
Pro opinion of her seems very high atm. I think she'll be a top tier hero after the new meta has a chance to settle.

B.Va has "I'm the queen bee!" and "Bzzzzz!" lines. I never realized they were skin specific though lol
Cheers.

Awesome, is that only in PTR or in the regular server?
That would make Punk Tracer, Wolf Hanzo, and B.va with special voice lines. McCree definitely has some for his gambler skin that people found through datamining. Those are cool.
Didn't know that bumping into turrets reveal you. Maybe using Symmetra's turrets as mines could be interesting.
Numbani Quick Play on defense; enemy never takes the point, we win, and I even get a 13 kill streak with Symmetra.
Attack; we take the point and make it to the second with no real problems. Then enemy switches to a two Rein, two Torb set up.
Ready for one hero limit to come to PS4.

A widow, every, single, goddamned, game.
I wish she could just be removed, but then what will all these l33t snipx0rz do? Stop playing Overwatch? Please.
One symmetra, one torbjorn, one hanzo, one widow, one bastion.

...and I know yours. 2234 yesterday (my highest), back down to 2130 today. I'm determined to make 2500. In my defense I did fall down to 1600ish at one point so this season has been a hell of a roller coaster.
1 game away from diamond, solo q a bunch and lose 200 points. Literally a drunk Russian guy on my team for 3 games as well. All the matches felt like I was skirmishing with easy bots, even the we one lost.
So bummed. Never playing comp after 2am. Going to make that a real cutoff.

Yea I've been doing quick play a lot lately to try different heros other than the ones I use for comp. Getting real sick of these Multi Genji comps where no one on my team knows he has a reflect ability. Or the multi tracer groups where people on my team think someone else will take care of them.

Nice for the free weekend. Finally my friends can try out the pc version.
J/k that only happen in diamond and above i think.
Get flamed for throwing!

Does this happen to anyone else? Youre on a winning streak, youre 1 game away from breaking your season high SR and you lose every single freaking time?
I swear, anytime Im close to breaking 2679(I have that number now thoroughly ingrained in my brain) I always lose the match. Always. Not sometimes. Always!!!!! So frustrating. It´s like Im in Purgatory.

As you get closer to your highest SR, it places you in more difficult match ups. There was a huge write-up on the inner mechanisms of comp on the competitive overwatch subreddit a while back. I'll try to find it.
I decided to get into competitive play after doing quick play for ages.
After my 10 placement matches I ended up with a 2100 rating.
Soon afterwards I learned that doing ranked play without a pre-made group is a bad idea.
Win loss ratio of about 5-15. Dropped way down to 1800 and now having to claw my way back up. Luckily I found a nice group of people to play with during one of my more successful games.
The grind back to 2k begins...
Overwatch really needs a clan/ channel system to make grouping easier.
I'd really dig a GAF clan, made D3 a lot more fun as well.
