three damage per tick? no wonder i literally couldn't kill anything with Winston

He's just a big damage sponge meant to keep the enemy team distracted while your teammates kill them all.

HEROES NEVER DIE
Last night a player was upset that we didn't follow his plan to make a team comprised of turrets, turret builders, and shieldman.

He then called us rear end when we didn't win the round.

It's funny that 90% of the stuff you get in the loot crates are sprays/player icons/voice lines, when TF2 let you customize most of that poo poo yourself(and has way more + better voice lines for each character).

drat that's pure distilled treadmill right there. But like, in a gold cup.

how does the economy work in Overwatch anyway, can you just buy skins etc? trade them? if not is blizz just relying on one time purchase fee for revenue? season pass, xpacs etc?

.53 cents per hour to play a game after doing a 30 step process that includes things like
"Edit the client.ovpn file to have your server’s IP in it"

I think I'll take a pass on this one OP. Thanks but no thanks

That's the best price because the guide uses "spot prices", "normal" price is .67 more an hour. Amazon US-East "spot prices" right now are as high as $7.67 an hour, :lol:

The biggest advantage Overwatch has vs TF2 are the movement based abilities. In TF2 there was just the scout who was fast and could double jump but in Overwatch most characters have some way of flying around, climbing up walls, dashing in a certain direction, etc. It makes the game very fun IMO

In 2016, Blizzard Entertainment released an fps in which you can only change your mouse sensitivity using a slider that doesn't even display the exact value it's on.

They have also said they hope this fps will become a popular "competitive esport" game.

to be fair even when there is a value shown, it's usually in some arbitrary unit that makes no sense to me anyway
