I'm caught in a very frustrating position where I'm better at FPS than most of my friends who are buying Overwatch, but because I'm better I'm also more familiar with the game mechanics and the characters and I've played more in beta, so what ended up happening in the open beta is they'd all pick Reaper or Genji or McCree and only that character, and then I'd be forced to play Reinhart or Mercy or Lucio, and then I'd have to stand around healing them or shielding them while watching them suck at shooting things knowing that I could actually maybe hit something once in awhile.

At least in TF2 people who couldn't aim tended to gravitate towards Medic or Heavy :smith: In this it feels like people who can't aim choose McCree or Widowmaker more often than not. Blizz messed up by making them look too cool and appealing.

Ah well, it should sort itself out in the full release after awhile, more a problem with them being really unfamiliar with the classes during beta.

Solution: play Roadhog and clown on the enemy squishies with hook into a headshot :hellyeah:

My game is 60 seconds away from finishing downloading. Does that mean I get to play early?

You should of been eating saw dust something you cant actually digest and your body would think you were always full.

PSA: You can cancel most normal attacks into a melee hit. This allows for burst damage combos and with roadhog chain --> headshot --> melee is devastating.

The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

Are there odds on what will happen in an hour?

- error 37
- laaaaaaag
- wires crossed, logging in places you into battleborn and TF2 matches
- game doesn't exist, was all viral marketing for new HOTS hero Tracer (oh she went live weeks ago? Ooops our bad)
- peace on earth and golden age of mankind
- stuck as 9 million people click to open their first chest at once but the servers can only handle one at a time
- hardcore mode accidentally enabled, once a character dies in game no one can pick that character ever again (who wins?)
- 2% chance of justice raining from above?

Does anyone else get motion sickness from watching Overwatch videos/streams? I can't even get through a ten-minute video without feeling mildly ill

I do. Totally worth it though. Dramamine kinda helps.

The only skin i would consider using for D.Va is the junker one, and only if i can macro Fury Road quotes to show in the chatbox in all caps whenever i use an ability.
