Edmond Dantes posted:That could work, but then you'd have another Zenyatta without discord. Maybe do the destroyable drone thing but with shields? Like, 50 shields on the people the drone is following around, but you can destroy it. What's the effective difference between that and simply healing someone, besides poor scaling? If we do shields though, making boost like a quarter of their HP, so it scales better otherwise it'd only be useful on flankers.

Manatee Cannon posted:also tracer is not designed to be instagibbed, that's stupid and contrary to your point She has 150HP and the best evasive toolset of all heroes, she was designed to be a glass cannon and yes, instagibbed if she picks the wrong fights or if someone is REALLY good at hitting her. Also maybe I'm wrong, but I think pellets means most of those attacks don't really do their max potential damage as headshots - in fact, they might do WORSE damage than a meatshot.

I said non-headshot too so i dont think you even read my point to elaborate yes I did miss that roadhog can instagib 200 hp people with a good bodyshot but I think the odd exception is ok especially with one hero limit and that roadhog's range limitations and inherent drawbacks keep this in check. I think it's ok that tracer dies to a lot because she's the literal only 150 hp character now (zero suit dva blah blah ) and that is an inherent drawback to her but for the rest of the cast they should keep the non-ult non-headshot instagibbing to a minimum to keep the game more about teamwork and interaction I don't think this is a very controversial idea.

I liked the symetra suggestion someone here said of creatable destructible light platforms that can be used by allies. That way she has a use on offence that is unique and is team supporting without being heals.

just combine mei and symmetra into one hero, give her a freezing laser chainsaw, chargeable chunk of ice altfire, ice block on shift, and light walls. and idk some thematic ult

To keep her in line with the shield/energy theme and prevent people from complaining about a second Zen, mostly. Maybe not boost people's hp with shields but replace it? Like, instead of giving you an extra 25 shields just outright replace 50 of your health with shields (or 25 extra + 25 replace) That would allow flankers to be murdered with burst damage but still give them some elbow room if they disengage.

Zoness posted:I said non-headshot too so i dont think you even read my point but the only things that do instakill right now that I didn't mention are discorded headshots, which requires both skill and teamwork? mccree can't oneshot anything, even tracer, without assistance. it's not like the 50% damage amp from mercy that could just glue to him and let him kill everything independent of the team either, discord requires a lot more coordination because you don't know when the zen is gonna put it on someone or take it away. it's also only on 1 target at a time rather than opening up the entire team at once to death

The odds of you 1 shotting a Zarya as Roadhog, or 1 shotting a Reaper as another reaper are so astronomically low that it's not even worth mentioning. Roadhog can only manage to do it if he's in the sweet spot mid range with his right click. Frankly I'm not even sure the spread on Reapers shotguns even allow him to 1 shot anyone that isn't discorded

Make Symmetra's turrets heal allies with a different-colored laser at the same time as they damage with their regular laser so that we can have real laser light shows going on.

you absolutely can. it's not consistent, you're right, so you'll probably be going for bodyshots but it's very possible to kill any of the 200 health heroes in 1 headshot. reaper'd probably have to be almost touching the barrel of your gun but hey

The only two things I want in overwatch Roadhog's hook, melee and point blank shot combo does only 150 damage. Genji gets a cooldown on double jump. There I made the game better.

The bots got one-shotted (without discord) as did the Widowmaker, which kind of throws a spanner in the works when it comes to not being able to one-shot people with reaper without discord.

His alt fire can do a maximum of 225 damage, basically exactly the same as his main shotgun, assuming no head shot. His actual ability to do it is rather tricky though as you have to judge the distance right, as if it's too close then the "ball" will hit them, which does pitiful damage, and too far and it will be reduced to nothing thanks to spread/falloff.

Roadhog's right click is exactly the same as his left click, in damage values + bullet spread. It just explodes into the shotgun blast 10 meters ahead of him. If you hit someone with the whole packet before it explodes, its something piddly like 40 damage, but post-explosion the flak shot is just as dangerous as the normal shot.

If you want to engage in a pedantry war this was your quote: Bolow posted:Frankly I'm not even sure the spread on Reapers shotguns even allow him to 1 shot anyone that isn't discorded Which is completely, demonstrably untrue, even if you add the "consistently" caveat after the fact.

I'm like 30% certain Blizzard actually reviews the reports against in-game chat to ensure accuracy when taking actions against players. If you were silenced, you were silenced for a reason. However, there's a 70% chance I'm mis-remembering an older post and it wasn't Blizzard who referenced in-game chat when a player started crying about a ban on their forum.

Haha holy poo poo i was just removed from a QP match for inactivity when I was definitely moving around. Was behind the final point on Anubis while my team was capping the first one as Ana, kept putting people to sleep as they ran to spawn...and got booted. Stupid game, that was prime ambush location, even if I was useless Also I'm in favor of making roadhogs hook not go through geometry and not have a hit radius as big as Winston. I'm tired of having it done to me, and doing to others a hook where they aren't even in the reticule and it still latches onto them.
