It's probably already been mentioned but the new update breaks D.Va in Elimination. It puts her out of bounds when she ejects her mech. Video

 

[SparkleMotion]

Opened 3 boxes and the only New Year's items I got were 4 player icons.

 

[BPK]

Opened seven new loot boxes but got no new skins. Feels bad man.

 

[Permanently A]

mei's torso is hilarious. she's got some hardcore lumbar lordosis

 

[Shaanyboi]

Jesus christ those skins are on fire... Except for Mercy and Junkrat's.

Tracer. Mei, D.Va, Zen and Reinhardt are fucking great though.

Why the fuck are the yellow rarity skins 3000 currency?

 

[Vital Tundra]

Its triple for event skins. Same as the last 2 events.

I hope they fix Mei's skin. I mean damn she thicc but that spin looking funky.

Event legendaries have always been 3k.

 

[Wendel Clark]

Push buttons to interact with computer programs.

No that's only Overwatch actually. The FPS where pressing Q to activate aimbot isn't the most egregious game design decision somehow. I suggest learning about other games in the genre from the past.

anyways, on topic. I like the D.va skin.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

That's a liefeld pose aight.

 

[JeremyEtcetera]

Man, has Mei been done by Rob Liefeld in that skin?

Try to trace her spine curvature both sideways and back. Also, Mei is as her imagined, a bit stocky with big thighs. Her summer games spray was never quite right.

That body type is not completely impossible.

The belt-like object around Mei's waist seems to be acting like a corset.

 

[Yabberwocky]

I have never wanted so many event skins before. Here's to hoping for blessings from RNJesus.

Too good. What are spines, how do they work? Mei's is almost as bad as Widow's.

That doesn't answer the question tho

 

[FoxSpirit]

No, the body type is pretty common in China. What I mean is her freaking spine here. Extreme Lordosis and extreme sidewards curve. Completely impossible/only for contortionists.

 

[keuja]

Overwatch uses a cartoon art style. It doesn't have to be 100% realistic.

 

[CuNi]

Those achievements are impossible.. Enemys always pick Torb/Sym and all I end up with are Widowmakers.. please end my suffering blizzard!

 

[JeremyEtcetera]

To me it doesn't seem that way. It seems like she has a really large buttocks instead of what you're describing. I've seen women with small waists and rear ends so large you could possibly balance things on them. This is what I'm seeing with Mei.

 

[KaYotiX]

CTF isnt that fun, nice try Blizzard.

Just doesnt feel like that game mode works with Overwatch

It is just alright. It feels off the same way a death match mode would feel off in this game. Not all characters are independent enough for it.

 

[Gradon]

What did they do to D.va???
Also she's fucked on Elimination...

 

[Supersonicclank]

I am VERY pleasantly surprised with the amount and quality of skins, voice lines, etc.. Love Tracer's and Mercy's! <3

Don't currently like CTF though... The timer to capture and reset time when hit don't jive with the game play right now. Fix that and I can enjoy it better.

 

[GreenMonkey]

Time to try some more Dva.

It looks to me at a glance that they over nerfed her. The damage nerf or the armor nerf would have been fine. But both?

I played her as a primary long before her first buff, and she was a little OP, but doing two nerfs at once feels like overreacting.

I play a bit of everyone, so I can stick with Zarya as my other good tank if needed.

 

[SparkleMotion]

Am I crazy, or does Zarya's energy go down a lot faster after the patch?

Without the cap timer CTF would become a game of whoever manages to Tracer/Diva the fag the quickest..which is kinda still happening in pub games atm.

The cap timer promotes teamwork and forces you to mount an actual offensive for the flag but at the same time kinda guarantees a cap if your team manages to kill them, there's no real way to recover it once that happens.

In short, CTF kinda sucks lol.

Lúcio
New Hero Option: Allow Backwards Wall Ride
When enabled, allows Lucio to start wall riding while moving backwards.
New Hero Non-Option: Broken Control Settings
Hold to Crossfade bugs out and changes back to toggle behavior in the middle of a match. -_-

 

[Two Words]

Look at what I got in my free loot box

 

[SparkleMotion]

Why are the Mei skins legendary? The winter one was because it changes her ice block to a snowman. Do the new skins do anything?

 

[XANDER CAGE]

well then

 

[Vital Tundra]

Its completely different than her normal skin. No, most Legendaries don't. The Winter one shouldn't have been Legendary.

 

[NZNova]

ALL SYSTEMS BUZZING

rip dva

The main reason she was OP was because she was impossible to kill with Nana standing behind her. Nerfing her and the biotic grenade at the same time is probably overkill.

 

[aeolist]

well then

this is fucking hilarious

 

[AlexFlame116]

well then

Ah....

 

[jediyoshi]

Literally the same reason as any other legendary in the entire game.

The winter one is the odd one out, everyone hated its lack of difference so much Kaplan came out with an apology for it being a legendary.

 

[Foxxsoxx]

well then

I can't even.

 

[LifEndz]

Got the new Dva skin in my second loot box. It looks nice and I play Dva as a support/dps killer so I think I'll be okay even with the nerf.

 

[kewlmyc]

well then

I thought it was weird as hell. Funny that it's actually a bug.

 

[Ghazi]

well then

link to the post?

[JeremyEtcetera]

If that post is legitimate then that is the fastest I've seen them fix a visual issue(maybe even faster than actual bugs in the past). However, if how she looks also has an effect on her hitbox then I can see why this needs to be a quick fix.

 

[ahoyhoy]

CTF is fun but they really need to fix the timer to take the flag. Either get rid of it or remove the reset if you're interrupted.

 

[Apathy]

take some images now to compare after the fix

 

[Doug Heffernan]

I don't hate CTF; in fact, this mode has gotten the most attention from me out of all the other holiday events. Better than I expected.

 

[Jasper Avenue]

CTF is really bad.

 

[JeremyEtcetera]

Another visual issue found:

Reinhardt's shield does not show cracks/damage with his new skin.

 

[Frozenprince]

Hate

god his new hammer is baller

 

[Rocketz]

5 boxes in. 3 sprays and 2 player icons.

Fuck.

At least I got the CTF 3-0 achievement.

 

[frontovik]

Got the Zenyatta legendary skin from the free loot box. Pity that I never play as him. Would've preferred the Mei skin.

 

[Velikost]

Does it do it at all? Cause I've been wailing on some Rein's shields who were using other skins and it never cracked, so if it was a general bug that'd make sense
