Looks like they're gonna be changing the Communication Wheel, to allow more customization and shit. You'll be able to select from 4 voice lines and 4 emotes, instead of just having the 1, I guess. You'll also be able to choose from 4 sprays, instead of just 1.
They're also adding some kind of obvious button to more strongly encourage groups to join Team Chat instead of staying in Group Chat.

Genji POTG from last night. I did everything in my power to throw that POTG but my team and my opponents just wouldn't let me.

Megaton? Hope they add a message to warn of flankers?
Nice. I could use some more options.
Jesus, there is no stopping a Nano Boosted Genji, regardless of the sleepdart.
hopefully one of those is attack/defend the objective and look behind you. Cause the former is definitely needed
Where did you hear all this? I'm generally curious, as I want to have all of these features.
Yeah, I think of it similar to the way StarCraft: Brood War handled "Use Map Settings" game types. Just a list of all these semi-full lobbies with weird custom rules and shit.
Timestamp for the way Jeff describes the custom game browser: https://youtu.be/mxlhFslsbu0?t=576
Right now the only way to get custom games going to is to specifically invite people, so it's kinda useless to most people.
Don't play her like a bad Widowmaker. She deals damage, but man, your team needs healing!
DPS Ana is the lamest thing. If you want to heal and deal DPS, play Zen. Get picks with her when it's opportune, but she is the primary healer of the team. Excessively shooting at enemies may cause you to need to reload when your team actually needs the healing.
Everyone has seen that Ana that just sits in one spot scoped in on the enemy team while all her Tanks are at Critical. Don't be that Ana.
Dunno how that Ana didn't manage to grenade you until after you deflected. That deflect was really nice though.
Holy crap, that server browser is going to be huge! It's always exciting to hear him talk about new heroes and maps, & I hope we see my boy Doomfist soon enough.
I'm definitely going to unlock all the sitting emotes and equip them to every character.
Yeah, one sword swing is 180 damage and dash is 75 damage. You can basically finish anything that isn't a tank with that at full health (until Symmetra came in and ruined everything).
Yeah she was slow with the combo. I initially thought it was your grenade lol.
I don't know how I even enjoyed playing Overwatch when there was a time where I couldn't do a Sitting emote and then spam my voice line over and over again, while waiting for the match to start.
I love when you get like 4 or 5 people to sit next to each other and all spam "Hello".

Widowmaker would like a word. Also when combined with Zarya's ult, or any other hard CC, it's not half bad.
Nah I was on the payload snipe healing you.
I agree with Widowmaker needing some work in that department. Her ult is probably the least useful in the game.
It actually is an inferior D.Va ult. D.Va ult causes way more panic because it's indestructible and actually can get kills. Low HP means Soldier can now just spray it and destroy most of the time on console. On PC, it definitely is the most worthless ult in the game and usually accomplishes nothing.
Junkrat has lots of issues though.
EDIT: Actually yeah, Widow has the worst ult. But he is second.
Knowing where your enemy is is still a better than a destroyable ult that exposes you and has a small blast radius.
You need to compensate for the shitty...everything by good routing. Some of the stuff I've seen Junkrats pull off in the killcam is pretty amazing.
If Symmetra's generators can have Tank amounts of HP as shield, there is no reason Junkrat's shouldn't be similar. Strike a balance between it being an actual threat and also killable. As is, Hanzo is usually the best to deal with that. As long as you have an idea of where it's coming from, one arrow puts it down good.
Graviton doesn't stop people from shooting it though. And it's small radius makes it so an Earthshatter or Blizzard has to catch everyone close together, when smart players typically scatter when Blizzard is thrown or when a Rein is about to Earthshatter. D.Va ult is way better for those situations all around.
All of Mercy's voice lines suck, except for "Piece of Cake", and I was playing the PS4 version during the summer, so I don't have that on my PC account.
"I'm not a miricle worker" is good for the times when your team is awful.

No way, I love using "I'm not a miracle worker you know" when people spam "I need healing" at me.

"Sprechstunde bei der Frau Doktor" is awesome though

I am using "I have my eye on you." I like it, but not sure why. Her VL are shit tbh.
That's overestimating it quite a bit. Sometimes there just isn't cover, or even if you're controlling that thing eradically, a whole team vs. a riptire in a graviton surge shouldn't be able to wipe a team.
It's different if say, Junk is close enough to just drop it from a ledge or something. That would require him to play aggressively in most situations where he just isn't meant to.
I mean, you could say it's main use is to just get 1-2 picks, go for a Lucio etc. But I don't think Blizzard actually intended for it to be used that way, and it would still be pretty weak when it effectively accomplishes what a Roadhog/sniper (basically a better hero) could do without an ultimate.

How Barbaric >
His ult charges pretty fast, so I can't see them makin it something as high impact as other ults
That's the one I use.
I used that one for a long time, but got sick of it.
I spammed it at people who move me around while I'm sitting.
At one point it still exploded when it was destroyed.
I love those. Just go with the flow.
