Nya I have just very good karma. Summer Lootboxes I got every legendary skin. Halloween Lootboxes I just miss Mercy right now. I don't play Junkrat and Roadhog and Reaper. Also got the Hanzo, Pharah and Symmetra skin already. I only leveled up 18 levels since the event and I prestige soon. Love my karma.

"Trust me, Symmetra is great on the first point," they said as they stood right in front of the enemy spawn only to get spattered across the Numbani pavement a second later. Strix didn't cry though. His tears had long ago dried up on his journey downward through back through Diamond.
I went 7-0 before this game so I expected it. Sitting at 3413, up from 3299.

My feelings whenever the characters start to expose the deepest lore between them. Such godawful dialogue...

Don't blame Symm for that player's shoddiness.
Edit: Has there been any hint of the changes being made to Symmetra? I really hope they don't mess with her too much.
Getting a rework. Not sure when though.

I would genuinely be happy if they just made her turrets a tad bit stronger, made the cool down time a little shorter and made the teleporter slightly harder to destroy.
My fear is they change her into a completely unrecognisable character.

Having people backseat game when you're playing Reinhardt can get annoying. Last night, had some games last night where the team wanted me to play ultra-conservative basically just be a stationary shield. We stall out pretty bad, when I finally say fuck it and go ham we stomp and take the point.

I think at some point blizzard will have to do something about point B spawns, because as they are it is stupidly easy to stagger and stall.
This is an odd one, but has anyone else experienced the game crashing on Ilios while the score is tied up at 2-2?
This is the second time this has happened to me in the space of a few days. It seems to not only boot me, but most players (if not all, I'm not entirely certain) from the game.
On PS4 btw.

What in particular would you say is a problem? I mean Point B is -supposed- to be harder because in QP when you take it, you win the match. In Ranked is it really an issue when both teams have to play on attack and defend? Did something change when I stopped playing the game as much?!
Draws. Draws everywhere. About more than half the time we get a draw.
Okay, yeah I can relate to that. But is that a point B problem or a scoring problem? Why not count the fucking time as score in a tiebreaker for assault maps????
Draws. They became common for me on Hanamura, because Mei.
Not that I find her OP, but stalling strats are incredibly lame and frustrating.

I actually think they should count the ticks on the point (specifically for 2CP maps, not for hybrid).

No, it's just too close to spawn. I'm alright with defenders getting the advantage but at this point there is a lot of cheesy stall tactics you can use that's just kind of a clusterfuck and not much value gameplay wise.
And I should know.
This is a great idea I think, it would eliminate draws significantly. What usually happens is once you capture Objective A in maps like Hanamura and Volskaya you need to make a quick and huge push to Objective B and try to get the defending team while they are reeling.
One of two things usually happen, either you push as a team quickly, everyone coordinates their Ults perfectly and Objective B is captured. This unfortunately, is the perfect scenario and doesn´t usually happen.
Or what will usually happen is youll make a quick push, youll get the capture point to maybe 2/3 of the way, the enemy team will respawn and being so close to Objective B they regain hold of the capture point. And now its basically a stalemate if the enemy team is competent enough.
Using the CPs bar as a measurement of a Victory or Loss seems something that should have been implemented from the start and I cant think of any negatives as to why it shouldnt be.

To be clear, I don't think they should take the entire bar as a measure of victory - just the two ticks on the point that the capture bar gets locked at. So you could end up winning with a score of, say, 1.66 to 1.33.

I'm ready for Blizzard to remove hero stacking from quick play tbh
It's awful
When the other team is gorillas and your team won't switch from snipers it's just 😭😭😭

Not a fan of Reaper personally. He's too slow. I like some pace in my DPS heroes.
If only I was good with Tracer. She'd be my favourite. Had a couple of awesome games as 76 last night. 18 and 20 player kill streaks without breaking a sweat. Only died because I got cocky.
I think 76 is an absolute god on defence. He's kinda like Bastion, but mobile and a longer cool down on his burst. However, because he's mobile, he can burst down healers from the flank, and then sprint back to help the main group before the enemy team even knows what happened.
I think 76, D.Va and Zarya are my favourite characters by a long shot.

I don't think it should be removed from QP. They just need to include an unranked mode with 1-hero limit to the menu.

I personally haven't (ps4 also) but others in the thread have. Seems to be a nasty, random bug.
It´s not the average
So basically if your rank is 3500 or above you can only rank with players 500 points more/less than you. If your rank is 3499 or less you can rank with anyone 1000 points less than you(not more in this case).
So if you´re 3499 you can only rank as low as with someone who is 2499, this falls for anyone in your group. So if 4 of you are 2499, one of you is 3499, and the last member is 2000. The member who is 2000 can not play with the member who is 3499...

Damn. That's a shame. Quite a few people play competitive because they prefer the ruleset. Not necessarily because they want to be competitive. It creates a problem when you want to play with friends in that mode and you all play the game a different amount.
I mean, I get why that's there. To stop carrying and ensure matchmaking is somewhat accurate. Maybe they need unranked competitive.
Thanks for the clarification though, much appreciated.
Tracer is my "main", for lack of a better term. I love frustrating the enemy team on Overtime.
I play D.Va, Pharah, and Mercy quite a bit as well. Need to get some more man-love in there lol.

Apparently that equates to approximately 6 hours 27 minutes remaining.

"Reinhardt, at your service!"
I'm glad that the game goes by the motto that there really is a hero for everyone, and you can have a fun time playing that character in the game. Maybe with the exception of Widow and Hanzo for me, as I generally don't like playing sniper-type characters in first-person shooters.
My feelings exactly with Widow and Hanzo but for some reason I love playing as Ana even though shes considered "sniper class."
There are other heroes I really dont touch either like Tjorborn, Genji, McCree and Bastion. Each one of those, under the right hands, can be really good but for some reason I just dont like playing as them.
I wish, wish, wish I understood how to play Reinhardt. He's one of the coolest characters, but boy I'm so useless with him. I should watch some guides on how to use him and practice a bunch in QP.
But yeah, Pharah is cool too. I like her a lot, but I'm kidding myself if I think I'm a better Pharah than I am 76. I try to be good at Mercy, but I'm not. I'm crap. Occasionally I'll have a good match with her, but more often than not, someone harasses me and I just can't deal with it.
Too many awesome chicks in OW!

I would like a slight reduction to McCrees skill cooldowns...I'm thinking 8 for flashbang, and 6 for roll.
Headshot damage for FTH would be nice as well.
Would that make him OP? Seems reasonable I think.

Yes he would be too OP again. Let him be.

He's the most balanced he's ever been. Leave him.

For the record, I'm speaking on console.
He seems to be not picked very often, at least in my skill bracket (gold).
Fair enough, jus thought I'd throw it out there.

McCree is perfectly fine. FTH is still solid against tanks and flash+roll are fantastic abilities.
He's very balanced right now.

I know you guys are above my skill, so can I ask...do you see him in your games often?

Fairly often.
Not played well though, most of the time.
