Panfilo posted:I wish there was a more involved training mode designed around the specific character you picked, so you could develop skills with less familiar characters in a 'singleplayer' setting. This would be awesome. The Ana training mode is ok but I have problems doing it for long because her darts cause a visual effect and when you have 6 of them rapid firing it gets to a point that I can't even see them sometimes.

What I enjoyed about starcraft 2 was the challenge mode which built relevant skills for multi-player regarding micromanaging your units. Overwatch could do the same and like you suggested expand the story of the characters.

We somehow lost 2 to 3 with each team having 99% at the end of the final round. Pretty frustrating knowing we likely would have won if he actually tried. Honesty prob the same dude lol. He was plat too. Guess he was just set on playing his main. I didn't check his sym time but assumed it was a lot. He played her the whole time on both the attack and defense. We would have likely won if he just picked someone else. He didn't even have to counter pick I get a tele on an attack might be a surprise gimmick you try once then switch after you use it but gently caress

people ask about sensitivity a lot and the answer is always the same: if you feel the need to change it at all, down is almost always better than up tracking gets harder the higher your sensitivity

How long is it before the loss streak mechanic wears off? After reaching my season high, the game seems determined to make me lose by getting 2 DC and a 4 dps team, so I guess I'm done playing today. Streaks are an incredibly poorly thought out mechanic in that they basically reward good luck and punish bad luck (assuming matchmaking even creates balanced 50/50 match pools). I'd like to play some more OW, but if I happen to get a team that has connection issues/trolls/won't communicate I will get an ever increasing amount of penalty. I understand that the idea behind streaks is to accelerate the move to your appropriate rank, but the reality is that they are a play-limiting mechanic. I cannot really see the advantage of that. I'd suggest instead of the current winning/losing streak mechanic they simply offer a bonus in exp or credits for a winning streak and get rid of losing streaks entirely. What this would do is foster the "just one more game" attitude without having an effect on your ranking that is largely independent of skill. Right now, the guy that goes W/L/W/L/W/L is going to be a lower rank than the guy that goes L/W/W/W/L/L. That is not a very good system.

it is absolutely true on console as well trying to bubble people while you flail around like a drunkard doesn't work either. if you really have to change the sensitivity, turn it a little down. turning it up just hurts your accuracy and that's about it. you're gonna turn slow on a controller no matter what you do and so will everyone else, so don't think about it too hard. it's not really a problem

You're not wrong, but this system gets moderately strong players out of the pools where the majority of bads play really quickly, which is why Blizzard does it. Although -- in Hearthstone it stops applying above a certain threshold. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case here as well.

NERF REINHARDT NOW! Especially compared to other tanks, he has a nigh indestructible shield that can be re-aimed at a moments noticed (unlike winstons much weaker stationary shield) he can block all incoming projectiles indefinitely (unlike D.Va's 2 seconds and shorter range.) he can shut down an entire enemy team with his ultimate (unlike roadhogs 1 person per hook if he's lucky) and he has a lot of health in addition to having this OP kit (unlike Zarya's measly 400 hp) Blizz already knows he's overwhelmingly picked as a tank hero, so they need to either nerf him (make his shield recharge slower, longer until it recharges, absorbs less damage (like 1000 instead of 2000) or buff all the other tanks. he's too good.

I can honestly say that I have never once thought 'Reinhardt needs a nerf' even though he is in probably 70% of my games. He's only as good as the rest of his team allows him to be.

It's convenient that I don't have to bother going to Reddit or Battlenet to read calls for idiotic and unnecessary nerfs. e; it's also the least surprising thing in the world that the guy who mains Torbjorn is the one who has a problem with Reinhardt.

Nerf Reinhardt guys! You know, the one dude whose job is to hold a shield up for 90% of the match and Firestrike the other 10%. *stands still, out in the open and repeatedly shoots rounds into the giant shield before dying to the enemy team.*

I mean if Reinhardt really is this unstoppable omni-tank that can block everything in the game indefinitely and solo-kill the entire enemy team by himself then it seems like the best grounds for making your case would be to slampick Rein in comp and cruise your way to an easy Grandmaster rank, then you actually have something to point to and go "see, I told you so," but for some strange reason I suspect that won't actually happen.

Reinhardt is pretty easy to take down. McCree spam, Tracer flanks, Pharah rockets from above, or simply focusing the shield can bring him down. Focus fire can destroy the shield in a matter of ten seconds. Happens to me all the time against six stacks that communicate. His ultimate is something you need to have a game sense for, if he isn't making it utterly obvious that he's trying to line it up to begin with, which is usually the case. Stay spread out, especially as support. A good Lucio(arguably a staple for any good team comp right now) should rarely be in his line of fire, especially considering his 30m heal range. You could be the difference between helping to heal your downed teammates through a Reinhardt ultimate and participating in a game of "Examine the Floor Closely Before Being Beaten To Death" with them. Sound Barrier is a great tool for keeping people healthy through the assault as well. Really, the only issue I've had with Reinhardt is dealing with the Nanoboosted Fuckhammer of Justice. Even then, crowd control and focus fire can help take him out. e:Any Reinhardt that thinks he can brazenly waltz into your team, swinging his giant dong around, should be swiftly and readily punished by your team. Liberal usage of "THIS loving REINHARDT" is not an effective counter against him, although that does seem to be my favorite thing to say when I get hammered into oblivion because everyone let him.
