Gimnbo posted:They also like the way the rank system is working out, but want to find a way to make it obvious that it's a genuine ranking, rather than a race to 100 (possibly by not making it 1-100). I believe it's currently an ELO-esque system like Chess, maybe just use their numbers as well. If 60 changed to, say, 1800 people would probably be more chill about it.

Does Lucio's knockback right-click only hit one character? I tried to punt the entire enemy team off Lijang and I'm not sure if I botched it or it doesn't work that way.

Must've botched it then. Probably because D.va was in front so I assume she caught the full blast, hit the guys behind her, and didn't go anywhere while they blew me apart. Ah well, would've been glorious if it worked so I have no regerts.

A drunk "sorry bro it's quickplay" Hanzo main refused to do anything useful so we all went Hanzo and did better at it than him. Of course we lost but it made him quit at least.

D.Va's mech takes damage when you are climbing in. D.Va herself takes damage if you shoot her while she is getting into the mech. To avoid this, use your mech calldown to kill the player you are fighting.

Props to the goon who went behind the enemy team to capture point B for the win while their entire team was kicking our faces in halfway back to point A. It was all a part of our strategy.

If you do charge it, please be aware of where your team is. Had a round tonight where my team hid behind a wall and 4 of us still died somehow. We were very confused in chat, and the enemy capped the last point a few seconds later. What do we see in the D.Va PoTG? Our Rein gleefully sending it over to our side of the wall, right before a friendly ice wall went up sealing our fate. It was so ridiculous I couldn't even be mad.

So my buddies just got the game and I wanna play with them, but I'm level 80 and whenever we've grouped it's put us in a match catering to my level and they get rolled. I'm watching them play a ame now and it's all pre-10s except for two 80+ people on the -enemy- team.. how do I get into games like this with them where they're mostly facing people their own skill level?

Are you leading the group? I am pretty sure it matches based on the group leader more than any other factor. Of course, when you group up, you also get faced up against groups, so that might also be part of it. If quickplay ends up untenable, though, you can always play Vs. AI until your friends get the basics down. This is what it is there for.

I thought we tried with him elading and it ended up with him being level 1 and everyone else being 70+ but I may be mis-remembering. Guess we'll try again net time.

When does Zero Suit D.Va become vulnerable after her mech is disabled? Say, if I'm McCree and I take out the MEKA, when should I throw the flashbang?

No Safe Word posted:Yeah I've done it like a dozen times on PTR and I think I've run for like 10 of them. Also, since I'm used to using it as a bomb-and-run thing I would always boost and immediately ult and then run but really you can boost in and jump out close to the landing spot now to frag nerds. I was thinking about that today and I still think I wouldn't stand too close to the ult most of the time. The good thing about zerosuit DVA is she does a lot of damage from far away, and one of the main benefits of the ult is when it's over you go back to full DVA health. There's not really a reason to stand that close to it, but at least now you won't kill yourself by mistake a lot

They were all 6 clustered, sniping at the same spot on the bridge before the statue trading shots with our team on the point. Our Lucio snuck up behind them all and got a perfect team kill with a single boop. It was amazing

So after playing the beta, I was really hoping that Tracer would get a little buff to her survival since she's very weak. However, now the full release is here and Tracer is pretty useless. I get that she's supposed to be centered around a 'hit and run' play style, but she does so little damage and gets killed so easily, that she's hardly an asset to any team. Her ultimate also charges so slowly for a pretty comparatively weak ult (Tracer's ult can't even kill a tank at full health, meanwhile Mcree's/Reaper's ult will). She sacrifices both attack and defense for mobility, and I get that, but all the mobility in the world can't save you from getting one-shotted by many classes. Here's a list of things I've found will kill an unbuffed Tracer in one shot. -Charged Sniper hit anywhere (Widowmaker) -Charged Storm bow hit anywhere (Hanzo) -Fire Strike (Reinhardt) -Direct hit from a rocket (Pharah) -Direct hit from a grenade (Junkrat) -Direct hit from helix rockets (Soldier 76) On top of that; -Mcree's 'fan the hammer' out does the pulse pistols' damage at close range, effectively guaranteeing Mcree will win at close range (and that's without being stunned from his flashbang) -Mei's freeze-ray will freeze tracer in an instant, and while being frozen you can't blink/recall/attack, basically ensuring a free kill to Mei. (an she's so weak that the freeze-ray alone is almost enough to kill her) Also, I really can't tell if this was intentional or not, but you are not invincible when mid-blink. This means that you can get hit mid-blink (and instantly die if its one of the ways listed above). This includes blinking across hallways and getting hit with the crossfire. You can also blink into Junkrat's traps, getting stuck in them half-way through a blink. This makes dashing into combat to 'hit and run' a great way to get killed before you even get into combat. The tips for Tracer suggest stacking the buff of Torbjorn's armor packs and Symmetra's shield with her. However Tracer is an offensive hero, and Torbjorn and Symmetra are more defense oriented heros, so its unlikely that you'd have all three on a team. And even if you did, that would mean half of your team composition is to make tracer not useless (Tracer+Torbjorn+Symmetra= 3/6 of team). It just seems like alot of disadvantages to balance out the fact she has good mobility. There are so many counters to Tracer that if your enemy knows what they're doing you will die every time. Until they buff tracer, I'll stick to Genji, who has more health, more survival abilities, basically equal mobility (aside from recall), more damage potential, and a much better ult. http://us.battle.net/forums/en/overwatch/topic/20744394554

The competitive playlist sucks, it's full of people who do not change their character regardless of how the fight is going. It's incredible to watch someone walk Bastion over and over and over again into turrets. In my last match I had a symmetra that refused to give me shields after shielding everyone else, the fucker waved at me but wouldn't give me shields.

What about a mode where anyone who dies gets converted to the other team, until one team has everyone (or whoever has a majority at round's end)?

Tracer has 150 health Widow bodyshot was nerfed to 120 Charged bow is 125 Fire strike does 100 Rocket direct hits do 120 for both Pharah and Soldier Grenade direct hits do 120 You shouldn't be dying in one hit, and she does have an ability that rewinds all damage every 12 seconds. A good tracer is really difficult to kill because you'll land something like a direct hit on her after she blinks past half your projectiles, she rewinds it, and can keep blinking.
