This problem should also be fixed with the introduction of more heroes so that there's less of a meta hero and, ideally, more options for playing around things. McCree seems to be a symptom of a larger problem, and that problem is Tracer's rear end.

It's more blatant in the first 2 movies.

Anyway OW is set in a glorious sci-fi future, so if I remember my 60s sci-fi right than everyone is bisexual, polyamorous, and high all the time.

McCree is really a Westworld android, right?

Zenyatta is so New Wave sci-fi it hurts, and Roadhog and Junkrat are kinda Samuel Delaneyish. Tracer's probably based on one of those books too.

For? All the unlocks are in-game currency. Not achievement points. They're no different from Blizzard's other games that use achievements and also have a point value assigned to them. Granted, some achievements grant you sprays (i.e. 20 kill streak achievement, using Roadhog's hook to interrupt an opposing player's ult, etc). But there is no cost associated from what I can see.

No, I mean I'm pretty sure the achievements give you the in-game currency, called credits, and not achievement points.

Is there a thread for New Wave sci-fi in Book Barn? We should make one.
When I played Warcraft 3 I was amazed at how blatantly they ripped off Elric.

It took a bit but I finally got my first plays of the game in back-to-back rounds on Anubis. One with Symmetra (yeah) when a lit Tracer zipped into one of my deathballs right before Reinhardt/Mei tried to duck into the presumed safety of my sentry nest. Then on offense I picked up POTG as Mercy for rezzing three on the point and grabbing a couple def. assists in the process.

Symmetra's the best champ imo

I've been having a good night with Triage Combat Mercy.

Not a lot of Widowmakers expect to lose a longrange gunfight with a medic. And I wish I'd remembered to record the quietly understated Mercy potg that consisted, entirely, of me plinking a Pharah out of her barrage. She's now my most-played class.

Man, I get a premade with 3, 4 people every other game in solo queue nowadays, I can't even play as a ~~chill goon that has fun~~ because picking anything other than Soldier basically just gets me stuck in 3, 4v1 situations all game long if I try to play the objective. It's incredibly frustrating. Also people in LatAm have this stupid thing of just dropping the match if the team starts to lose, so all of a sudden you're playing 2, 3 people down.

The funniest part of Overwatch is chasing after a pubbie Mercy while reloading and missing all over the place but for some reason they won't pull out their pistol and just cap your 15 HP remaining rear end.

So the weekly brawl (on PS4 at least) is Genji & Hanzo only, fast cool downs, Hanamura map only.

What sad, pathetic weaboo at Blizzard thought that would be appropriate for a week long special mode.

oh poo poo she can FIRE GUNS?

My favorite is still soloing close-ranged classes as Lúcio. Or Reinhardts. The number of stupid, rushing Reinhardts that miss on a charge and allow me to eat 50, 60% of their health before they can reestablish themselves is astounding. Although quite often those are on my team too, so it balances itself out.

Highlight of the night was a Rein rushing into a 4x1 in the ramp right after the checkpoint in Route 66, me going (as nicely as I could muster by then) "please protect the payload, don't rush people down", and the Rein getting on TOP of the payload and putting up a shield, at an angle where no one could really aim and be protected at the same time.

At least he took my advice, I suppose.

I play Soldier because I find that what the team usually misses is damage and someone that can take down supports/turrets. I mean, nevermind me never playing in a team without at least one sniper or a Genji/Reaper, but...
