They've gotten pretty good at covering up the leaks of the new skins I have to say.

Zzzzzzzz. one time I got a potg as pharah that was a long range direct impact that killed both the pharah and her mercy and it was really cool and I got lots of votes for it ok that's my story thanks for listening

The more people on the point the faster it captures. But does the cart move faster with more people on it? Or only up to 3?

I got a POTG once where I reflected a Deadeye and killed an ulting Pharah that was neat Also got a great highlight where I reflected a Deadeye with a mid-air 180 straight into McCree's face which felt way cooler but didn't earn me POTG because algorithms

[edit] So they reveal a little more about the new event. It four weeks and has a new map designed for Capture the Flag which they THANKFULLY changed it so draws no longer happen and grabbing the flag is instant, but using a ability that makes you invaluable or move faster drops the flag. And I guess out of the six new skins two are for Mercy and Genji . Rirse fucked around with this message at 02:11 on Feb 7, 2018 |

I was just thinking yesterday how I missed Capture the Flag so I'm excited for a new map that's exclusive to it!

I'm totally all about taking away the ability to carry the flag while doing all the movment stuff. Winston being able to just leap away with it or Sombra being able to instantly teleport away with it was ridiculous. I wonder if this will apply to ults too

Seeing as how you can't take advantage of mobility anymore, all that will matter is durability.

I guess I'm mostly ehh about the instantly grabbing the flag thing that somebody mentioned? Unless that is just in overtime. At the same time, though, I don't really see a problem with high-mobility characters being big threats in CTF. But that change might not be too bad. Will Tracer be able to jump forward while holding the flag now?

Just had a weird bug in mystery heroes where I died as Lucio and our Mercy revived me right as I respawned as Reinhardt and the game spawned my hammer man where my dj died.

One of the skins better be Orisa and now she is an actual robot dog centaur.

They didn't give anyone a Rooster costume last year so I wouldn't necessarily expect any dog costumes this year.

legit low key bummed at proposed CTF changes. i know i was vastly in the minority here but i fuckin loved CTF when it was around on a regular basis because i really found it to be the most chill mode. it’s a game mode where i could just pick torb and still win the majority of my games because defense heroes finally had a place to shine. or sometimes i’d go lucio and just ferry my team back and forth. the game mode was overall slower and sometimes bullshit but it’s really not something you had to tryhard. i was looking forward to comp CTF because it’s something i’d be able to mindlessly grind away at and walk away with some easy comp points but i guess defense heroes being good is a bad thing. gotta make the flag caps instant and the only way to stop it is to outright murder the other team. all offence all the time go go go. i get the idea that this is to make the game mode more engaging and action packed but that’s exactly why i liked original CTF in the first place— in a sense the other modes are already about that kinda poo poo and CTF was my place to chill out. now i just feel someone like torb is going to be a liability and if i’m not roadhog or something then why am i playing

I think I stopped playing CTF after I got kicked out from a game for "inactivity" as Symmetra when I was defending and all the action was on the other end. Maybe I'll try again now

I mean all it means is that if your team and the enemy team are just doing gently caress all you'll have to build your defences further up and kill more dudes, this doesn't mean defence heroes are bad, lol
|
# ? Feb 7, 2018 11:29 |

All this means is that a turret nest won't automatically stop a capture and you will have to actually fight the flag runner to stop them, oh noooooo.

dogstile posted:It disables fade and sometimes i'd really like to be able to fade out of certain death I played a ton of pharah back when shatter extended up like 15 loving meters, lemme tell you about bullshit shatters. On the other hand, whenever a reinhardt charges me I just jump and he flies right on by, so I guess it is only fair dogstile posted:Sure but that doesn't mean one skill is more powerful than another, etc. People have weird idea about how ults should be game changing potg every time. Her ult kinda sucks, but it's not that hard to get decent mileage out of it. Seems to shine best either at breaking up a hard point of people hiding behind shields so you can push em/scatter their push/force out a defensive ult or (similarly) just pop it, start spraying anyone not in cover and yell at your team on comms to PUSH PUSH PUSH GO GO GO GOGOGOGOGOGOGGO BE AGGRESSIVE IVE GOT U BB In any event you've got it back like 20-40 seconds later so using it in edge cases is fine.

The only dps heroes I play are defense (+Symmetra, the closest thing I have to a 'main') and I loathed the old CTF with the passion of a thousand Dinoflasks salivating at a new dev update. Bring on the changes.

The CTF changes could have been “At the start of every round, steak and a cold beer are imported to your room while Jessica Alba serves it to you naked” and I’d still only play it for my Lootboxes and GTFO

ApplesandOranges posted:Does Mercy have the most skins at this point? No, she's about on par with most of the original roster. Tracer, Torbjorn, Reinhardt, Zarya, Mei, and McCree all have 16, which is the most anyone has. Mercy has 15 right now and is about to get her 16th.

Winston hasn't gotten a skin in a year, Tracer hasn't gotten one in 9 months. I want a Torb skin myself.

all i ask is if they're going to go through all this work trying to fix capture the flag and giving it it's own map, then they should give it its own permanent card in the arcade mode (they won't)
