Heh yeah. It be nice when the fix comes in, cause her new skins are really lovely otherwise indeed (gotten the Chang'e from a loot box, woo).

Next Bastion buff: Bastion can now deploy tank treads for mobility during turret form.
It might not be a bug, they could've disabled those features to insure players will easily find matches. I can't imagine Arcade's population being comparable to QP/Comp.

Have fun, Genji mains! The next meta is upon us!
Haha I'm so bad with Genji. I barely play him. I should really change my avatar.

Have fun getting close to him or killing him while Rein is protecting him and having both Torbjorn's turret and Symmetra on left and right sides.
Just play triple tank Genji. Bastion is countered.

You're doing good. Good work.
Justice can be elusive, but it always rains from above.
Honestly, you want to catch her after a Jump Jet, because her hover is mad slow. Widowmaker and Bastion paste her instantly. Soldier 76, McCree, and Genji are also good picks. If you track her, you can also wait until she touches down again.
He already savages most tanks. Probably just remove headshots or allow him to transform a bit faster.
I... actually ran into last night on Watchpoint right before the last door. Damned hard to break.
Regrettable, but necessary.
Hey it's different than what we have playing the last couple of months.

What I don't get is why isn't Bastion full health is armor? He is a battle omnic with no life, he's all armor.
If he takes less damage in sentry mode and can bait out his reflect then he's good. Not to mention if Zen or Ana is babysitting the Bastion.
Edit: Double post my fault.

Break the shield, than focus him down.
Well if they're removing headshots and increasing spread, it should make it easier for Genji to counter even if its less damage.
At low MMR, Bastion is often working alone. In that case, if he's set up at a spot where you can hit him from a distance, he gets boned by anyone who can pop out of cover, shoot at him, then duck back in before taking too much damage. Zenyatta is particularly good at this because his charged alt fire can probably kill a discorded bastion on his own.
But if the team has people protecting the Bastion, and if it's set up at a spot that forces you to get close to him... I dunno what to do then.
Despite how goofy & lovable Reinhardt sounds, an offensive Reinhardt is indeed a scary thing to deal with. I'm glad that nano boost doesn't give him that speed boost anymore, as I have nightmares with hearing "Are you ready? Here I come!" & seeing a glowing knight obliterating the opposition.

Ever since the Christmas patch the game gives me around 20 more ping than it use to. Not sure if it's the cause but I can no longer pin people as rheinhardt unless I hit them EXACTLY. Rhein is the only character I have to absolutely dodge playing for that reason. I'd rather be lucio even though I dislike healing/supporting in games and hate that character in particular.
Rein is very scary up close. That's why you always want to be a decent distance from him.
I think someone called him a permanently ulting Genji who has very little mobility, and I think that's a decent comparison.
Even if so, having Genji pre-occupied with Bastion, which is going to be more difficult even if slightly, and not being able to focus on the healers instead could be problematic for him.
Also good Ana(s) in the back-line where she would be hanging with Bastion that can also somewhat deal with Gengu is going to make it even harder

I've had a really weird trend recently where i absolutely destroy teams with bastion and yet when i get bastions on my team i absolutely destroy the other team. Love me a good nano tank
Played against abastion yesterday who just stayed on the rotating platforms on volkskaya even though point b is about to be capped.

Yeah, that would really fit Reinhardt if here to be very offensive to the other team. His hammer is pretty powerful.

The Bastion changes sound interesting.
I'm just worried for people in Gold and below.

Also Anas dont ever heal Bastions and its annoying as fuck
Why? He's less of an issue than Hog or Pharah at those levels

Well if Ana and Bastion are worrying about Genji, it should give the rest of the team time to focus Bastion as well. Any decent team knows to kill Bastion first and then the fight is over even if they res.
For PS4, right? Mind if you could give me a general layout of how he sets it up?

I like Bastion and would just be happy to see him get a larger clip. 20 rounds in what looks like a LMG never seemed right.

Getting real fuckin tired of people leaving in the middle of competitive matches. Makes me want to exclusively play quick play.

Bastion reloads so fast in mobile form in addition to auto reloading every time you change forms.... I never cared about his mag size

i'm struggling to see why you wouldn't
you never accidentally hit a teammate?
My experience with the game was a few hours last night, and when I used her. I was due to my team not protecting me from either a Mei or Widowmaker when I was Mercy. I thought it was just her utility spell. So it let me kill off the range or close range harassing me.
The 13th, two weeks from today.
The changes to sentry mode seem really good for the game overall.
I've always found extremely stupid the damage he could do to smaller targets far away, and at lower levels, from noobs to simply bottom tier players, he's just plain cancer, making the game incredibly worse than it should be.

Bastion buff = Seagull and Koreans back at it again.

Bastion is never a counter to Pharah anyway. He only counters her once and after that, she firmly counters him.
