Internet Kraken posted:I think the POTG should almost always ignore ults unless something really special happens. Cause wow, yeah that guy pressed Q and got two kills, so amazing. It'd be more interesting to see pretty much anything else. I got a POTG once as Pharah when I pushed two dudes to their deaths on Ilios. That was cool and unexpected.

My favorite POTG was when an enemy Reinhardt charged onto the point, died to sentries, but the momentum of his charge was enough to knock 3 of us into a pit to our death.

We got shoved back super fast defending on Gibraltar to the point that an attacking Tracer got cocky and declared "GG" before they even had the next to last point. I swapped to Pharah, crushed them, and we shoved them back into their spawn and eventually won. I guess what I'm saying is I'm marrying Pharah and if you guys are my friends you won't try to stop me.

My favorite POTG moment was getting a triple kill with Symmetra turrets while I was a mile away chasing a genji with my beat...but ended up dying to another one of my turrets.

A good Widowmaker is so much more frustrating than a good Bastion.

So what's the best way to get good as the snipers? I mostly like to play D.Va and Tracer,, and I'd like to at least get a grasp on one of them so that I don't keep getting owned by enemy snipers when I pick one of them. Is it mostly just practicing headshots and trying to stay aware of when people are flanking you? I'd like to learn so I have a character I can deal with Bastions with, but god drat if every widowmaker on the enemy team isn't infinitely better at her than I am.

LegoMan posted:A good Widowmaker is so much more frustrating than a good Bastion. Yeah in the 3 days this has been out widowmaker is the only character I have wished just was not in the game because every 10 or so games you'll get some monster of a player who makes rounding any corner miserable.

Good widowmakers instantly make me regret practicing anyone with sub 400 hp.

I think I'll be happy if they removed Bastion from the Play of the Game list completely. Congratulations, you sat in one spot and held down the left mouse button to kill a bunch of people really quickly or turned into a tank and killed a bunch of people really quickly. I once saw one get that by going around in its bi-ped form and shoot people with its machine gun. I nearly cried because it was a Bastion play that didn't involve either of its turrets.

Like the game but the only hero I don't like is Hanzo. He feels like all the issues with TF2's Huntsman amp'd up and made into its own class. Those who can hit headshots and lead targets will go to the hitscan sniper to have a more reliable source of damage. Projectile headshot weapons have never been fun in any multiplayer shooter since getting one shotted by some guy strafing and firing randomly around a corner always feels like bullshit. He's not OP since a Widowmaker will always add more to a fight he's just unfun to play against

Most potgs suck, get used to it. The system is there for when there are legit sick plays, but they can't always be winners.

My brother with his 1k hours in TF2 told me Overwatch will be boring in 2 weeks and not really hurting the TF2 scene. Denial after 500 Euro spent for hats in the Mann Store I guess. I gifted him Overwatch. And he changed his mind after 2 days. Thanks Heavy and Natasha. After 8 years we gonna part.

It's so frustrating that the pubbies suck so much, unlike me, a finely tuned gaming machine. They never support my charges; frequently the entire team is out of position while I'm the only one being smart. they ruin the team composition by e.g. picking Widowmaker before me, thus forcing me to play the third sniper in our squad. Plus they push enemies to flank me, and throw off my aim with the sheer gravity of their badness, and somehow they even pooped in my pants. Matchmaking what the hell, Blizzard? Anyone else have this problem?

theres plenty of good twitch chats, they're just sub-50/100 viewers. you can actually have discussions and talk about the game + strats and it's nice. when you have 1k+ people talking at once you're going to just get people putting as many emotes between words as possible in hopes of making their message larger so 3 people are able to read it instead of none before it scrolls past

Drakes posted:Good widowmakers instantly make me regret practicing anyone with sub 400 hp. When I got killed by a Widowmaker savant for the 5th time the game helpfully gave me the tip "to avoid being oneshotted, try playing as characters with shields such as Symmetra". It said this while I was playing Symmetra Snipers are just never fun for anyone in any FPS and I'm quite comfortable saying most games would be better off with that playstyle shoved into a trashcan. Not sure how Overwatch's balance works exactly yet, but Widowmaker brings out all my old sniper gripes in FPS games.
