From a design standpoint, a few things I'm disappointed about the game: -Three characters have cybernetic arms, but this is neither factored into their primary attack nor movesets. -Two characters use two guns at a time, but again, they didn't find anything unique to do with this (like having LMB and RMB fire your left/right gun giving you the option of either firing both at the same time or alternating so you can fire continuously through reloads)

If they had designed it as Panfilo had described from the beginning you wouldn't know any different, because that's the way it would have always been, dunk rear end.

They could tune the damage accordingly. And I didn't suggest that Reaper or Tracer's guns should work like this specifically, I was just pointing out that the fact that they both dual-wield 'pistols' is merely for show and doesn't factor into their abilities at all. My suggestion was merely to take something like having two guns and find creative ways to integrate it into their abilities, instead of just holding down LMB when the crosshairs cover an enemy.

Kashuno posted:It's possible they do something like that in the future, but there is a lot of design space they purposefully left unexplored. It's a good way to do things for longevity sake Yeah, I was just thinking of all the interesting places they could go with character design that could still keep the game balanced. I understand its tricky, though; you don't want a character with abilities that completely wreck the map balance (like if they could briefly phase through walls or something) nor do you want a kit that would utterly shut down another heroes kit (though I suppose Ana kind of does this vs other healers). There aren't that many DoT abilities currently in the game, for example, so there's room to grow there. Or a character that could only do awkward floaty Luigi-like jumps or something. quote:How could they make a cowboy with a robot arm and not make the robot arm transform into a gun of some kind?? worst game I kind of assumed maybe he's a little embarrassed about having a robot arm, given that its kind of tucked under his poncho most of the time?

TheresaJayne posted:Well i finally managed to win a Placement Match - Eichenwald, but thats with 6 other losses, Starting with your Reaper play, your goal as Reaper should be to get behind the enemy lines and waste people before they know you're there, but you never used his teleport to that effect. Wraith Form is also his "oh poo poo I'm taking damage" button, not his "get me to the front line slightly faster" button. As a matter of fact, you shouldn't usually be behind a Reinhardt or walking the main path--take the side path to better flank the enemy. Lastly, Reaper's clip size is too small and his damage at anything over 10 yards out is too pitiful to spam attack as much as you did--you constantly lose fights because you're reloading.

Lastly, Reaper's clip size is too small and his damage at anything over 10 yards out is too pitiful to spam attack as much as you did--you constantly lose fights because you're reloading. I didn't watch the entire clip but I agree. For example, on Ilios you shouldn't stand around on point, especially not firing at a range on people. Teleport on top of the building to the side, or even on top of the lighthouse itself if you want to stay closer to your team. But preferably you'd set up closer to their spawn so you can flank their support when they start to push in. Playing Junkrat on Numbani attack might not also be the best choice, in particular since you seemed to go the center route most of the time. Junkrat is bad at firing upwards and the enemy team can easily hit you from the ledges. At just a general tip, you reload way too seldom. For instance, at around min 24 you stand around on point with 1/8 as Reaper. So if someone were to enter you'll only get one shot off before you have to reload, minimizing your ability to deal damage and exposing yourself way more to enemy fire. Watch pro streamers, they reload obsessively so as soon as you're not firing - reload. For that matter, watch some streamers in general just to pick up on position and general game sense. Most of us will never equal them in pure skill, but there's a lot to learn concerning the fundamentals of the game. This also helps to offset any weaknesses, such as if your aim, like mine, isn't the best.

TheresaJayne posted:Well i finally managed to win a Placement Match - Eichenwald, but thats with 6 other losses, Short version: you pick without regard to what the team needs and then your mechanics are not good on top of that. Scrubbed forward to the first loss on Numbani, scrubbed further to around minute 8 or so. Saw you get penned into spawn spamming junkrat pills at nothing for 60 seconds and fail to cap first point when Literally Any Tank would have beefed the last third of the point. Also Junkrat's tire is useless when red team is not preoccupied by a teamfight. If your team is trickling and not fighting as a discrete unit then... yeah, that's gonna be an obstacle to Maximum Junkrat. Saw a bit of the next round: Please just stop picking Junkrat and get comfy on some Tanks and Supports if you prefer to win and not lose. It is very consistently a lack of beef that keeps you from taking and holding points with enough time bank to win. That Volskaya match after Ilios? They clowned you out because they had Rein and D.Va and you just couldn't output enough damage even after the Reaper switch. Zarya would've had a larger HP pool while also ruining the D.Va's day and helping keep the rest of your team alive, too. Then you picked Bastion into a Pharah which, holy moses... I know you were trying to stall out the clock for a draw and this was good! Bastion into Pharah is not the way to do it. Certainly not for four and a half minutes during which they can easily adjust even if they weren't set up from the jump to counter a Bastion pick. The match you won on Eichenwald defense? You held with a D.Va and Rein backed up with Mercy heals while you played footsie with a Mei (who clowned on you half a dozen times in the exact same way as Reaper, jeet christ) for most of the time. Their tanks near as I could see? A solo Road "Ultimate Meter Donator" Hog. They didn't have enough HP pool to take a single point.

TheresaJayne posted:I was told by people here, I cannot aim so choose someone who doesnt need to aim. Junkrat is good but he is situational and demands that you play to his strengths, otherwise you're a sitting duck. Other non-aiming heroes that are good are Winston or Lucio (if you do damage with him then consider that a bonus). Or Zarya, as someone said above, but optimally you should at least be able to track decently to make the most out of her.

TheresaJayne posted:Well i finally managed to win a Placement Match - Eichenwald, but thats with 6 other losses, I watched two minutes of that junkrat play on volskaya. don't just throw your mine out and hope it hits something. as much as people rag on it, it's still a huge mobility boost. why keep shelling the same chokepoint no one is actually at when you could pop up to higher ground and actually see what you're shooting at. oh dearie me don't use your riptire like that. you don't need to use it the second it is up. what did you expect just throwing it through the same chokepoint that everyone has covered? seriously, move up. you're not doing anything to actually capture the objective. someone is trying to cap solo right now while you dick around. stop using mines like that!!! at least layer them with snares if you're just going to throw them out into the universe and hope for the best. you could have set up an easy kill on zenyatta instead of just pushing his ult around the point. i play a lot of junkrat and i don't know why you're on him right now. a tank would be choice in this situation. you're not super well equipped to handle their team as junkrat. don't launch your riptire in direct view of zenyatta. edit: don't amble all the way to the point when you could hop over terrain. during the overtime with 56:16 in the video you NAIL what to do with a mine during a firefight, wait until they're close enough you can pop it instantly. you could have also thrown it between you and reaper to buy yourself distance and do some damage. make sure you throw out your snare when you're capping in overtime, trap them right outside the point. edit edit: 55:34 left, you throw your riptire out in front with no one in sight and the enemy team clustered by the choke in front of the second point. instead if you had hopped up on the structure by the platforms on the left you could have angled it behind them and then gotten at least a double. work on flanking, that's the key to using most ultimates.
