redweird posted:If you main a character you should be ashamed. I'll always play what I think the team needs, but most of the time what the team needs is for me to kill people. The one exception was this dude I saw who had 45 hours on Reinhart and was a really good Reinhart. The team always needs more Zarya.

gmq posted:The team always needs more Zarya. Yeah dogg. Zarya is strong as hell. I've stopped playing her for the moment because of her right click bug but once that is sorted out I'm all over it. Quick question: Does Graviton Surge allow Reinhart's Earth Shatter to go under an enemy Reinhart's shield?

JackDarko posted:Should I just switch off of Rein when my team is all flankers and the healer only follows them to die over and over? Absolutely. If there are 3 flankers on your team and they ignore your "hey guys maybe you shouldn't all be flankers" calls, then you should not be playing Reinhardt or Mercy. You're not likely to accomplish anything.

Is it just me or has solo queue QP matchmaking started taking forever in the past few days? I went from waiting 10-30 seconds for a match to 3+ minutes now. I'm 99% sure I'm not under a leaver penalty or anything like that.

Or maybe you're too good/bad and it's having problems finding people your rank?

As far as QP is concerned, my view is to play as who you want and have fun. I'm not saying throw games away by playing stupidly, but just because your 4 teamates lock in Off/Def heroes and you're sitting there with no tank or support it doesn't mean it's your job to do it. I actually like playing Lucio, but I drat sure don't want to play him every match. Sometimes I actually want to practice and get better with 76 or find spots for turrets with Torb.

Re: Leavescumming:Jeff Kaplan posted:We have some improvements coming that should address some of the "Leaver" issues. We should be able to get some in this week and more are coming later on. Do you think this'll mean people can pull back out of the >50 rank abyss by actually winning matches regardless of leavers now?

It's because they need a new one every week and making something actually cool, like, say, everyone gets a random grab bag of hero powers, would be a lot of work. Hearthstone was the same way, 95% of the brawls were total garbage.

Man, Genji "mains" are hellish on your team but played right they can be a massive pain in the rear end. Especially considering that Dragonstrike is way, way longer of a hit than the sword looks.

It's not easy obviously, but I've ricocheted a junkrat grenade off the side of a KOTH entrance and had it bounce back right as another Junkrat was running into the point and one shot him right in the head. Stabbey_the_Clown posted:So, you've never played against a defending team which has a sniper, Torbjorn, or Bastion? That's really amazing. I was making a joke at the expensive of snipers. Never had one on my team on attack that contributed anything. Obviously if they're on the other team they're the best players Macaluso fucked around with this message at 04:38 on Jul 6, 2016 |

I actually wasn't sure about Junk rat when I included him, I keep hearing half the world saying he doesn't get crits and the other half saying he totally does.

Especially considering that Dragonstrike is way, way longer of a hit than the sword looks. My problem is Good Genjis are always against me when I'm support/tank and I have no way to deal with them. Same with Good Reapers: just watching the opposing reaper chew through my entire team while they fruitlessly shoot into a Rein shield as my voicecoms go unheard. The woes of being stuck in the 45-55 bracket.

Good Genjis are kind of like Good Spy, impressive in their bounciness, but the same amount of practice could go so much further in a different class.

genji is actually incredibly good when in the right hands. he has one of the highest skill ceilings imo and it's really really hard to deal with a good genji I don't really get the disdain for genji. like hanzo I understand, but genji?

Plus, most "good genjis" want to practice to become good genjis, which means they pick genji and -never leave-

Here are some brawl ideas Winston only, unlimited jump pack, one hit melee kills Pharah only, touching the walls of a level instantly kills you 6 soldier 76s vs 1 genji with 800 health. Genji gains no ult charge Hanzo, Tobjorn, Zenyatta. Headshots only Regular match but every player is a Rip-Tire Bastion only, constantly in tank mode. Tank can drive on any surface 6 roadhogs vs 1 lucio. Whoever hooks Lucio wins but Lucio has no cooldown on Amp it Up

You know what would be really cool to add to this game? Recon Mode. Recon Mode is something from Splatoon that I'm amazed isn't a standard feature in multiplayer shooters. It allows you to go into any multiplayer map as a single player and just...check it out. Walk around, see everything, test out jumps, etc. That's something that would be really useful in this game and I can't imagine it would be all that difficult to implement. (Words a developer hates to hear, but still...)
