The Ball buffs are real, had one that was an absolute nightmare on that new push map, we just could not kill it and the ball stun + moira teleporting in to suck your life out combo was incredible

So I haven't played since the mid season patch last season. Now my games are filled with the sounds of clopping feet coming from every direction. What the hell did they do?

Dick Jones posted:Edit: OW1 year-round skins are purchasable with legacy credits but virtually all event skins are locked behind the OW2 coins. Tulum Sombra , Warlock Ashe, and Tropical Baptiste are just a few examples. Wandering Monk Ramattra was purchasable with legacy credits last week but is now only obtainable with OW2 coins. With S3, this is now changed. You can earn the OW1 holiday/event skins with legacy credits now. I just logged in right now and confirmed that all of the Reinhardt holiday skins I skipped in the last 2 years of Overwatch are now purchasable with Legacy/Overwatch Credits. New skins for old characters that came out since OW2 launch is not purchasable with Overwatch Credits and require Overwatch Coins (premium currency). Looking at Rammatra, I can buy everything that came with him at his launch with Legacy Credits with the exception of his Battle Pass locked skins/emote or Shop only Victory Pose. His Monk Legendary skin does show Coins for me, but I assume that’s because I have less than 1900 Credits. They really should change the name and fix the icons in the battlepass.

I didn't notice a software update for OW2, so where's the new map been hiding? I also started the BP at level 6 for whatever reason, so there's that.

Yeah the movement nerf was absolutely great but the increased healing on low hp targets means that it now feels better to actually try and kill her. I like that change a lot.

There was a bug with footstep SFX last season and I'm assuming in addition to trying to fix that, it introduced a new bug that fucks up footstep audio when dynamic sound changes are supposed to apply (like inside tunnels, closed structures, etc). It's especially bad on Midtown and Junkertown so far. It's been reported

I don't know if it's because it's the start of a new season or if they've tweaked the matchmaking but my QP games have all been extremely sweaty and less likely to be a complete stomp. It's been kinda great.

The foot stomp thing is annoying because I really want an accessibility addition of some sort of visual indicator where you are getting shot from. Turning up steps makes it WORSE for me to try to figure out where the sound came from

Is it just me or did they over do it a little bit with wrecking ball? He's like borderline unkillable. I've had multiple games now where he never dies

Wrecking ball only really dies now if he's bad. Best part is that sombra is also so bad that swapping to her is actively making your team worse.

Weren't they supposed to change the matchmaker this season so that the roles are balanced? Because that's sure isn't the case right now.

SOMETHING has changed in the matchmaker imo, because every game is sweaty as hell but not necessarily a stomp. I've had Push matches where we actually managed to rally and win from a losing position, something that never used to happen in season 2

New season patch bias. I just sat outside the enemies spawn the entire game as tracer/monkey/genji/lucio murdering everyone who tried to leave. The moira back on cart was a little bored but managed to keep bouncing heal balls our way.

It's interesting how the patch where they change how matchmaking works is the patch where the rating display in profiles breaks.

So I'm getting irrationally annoyed at Moira. Seems as my level (Bronze/Silver I guess? I don't play comp) whenever there's a Moira they just run around sucking the life out of people at 20 meters away and no one can kill them. She self heals from doing damage, fades away when low HP and is generally just a pain to deal with. I'm just sick of seeing DPS Moira's and want to know how to deal with them better.

Treat a DPS Moira like you would a Reaper if Reaper had the lowest damage output in the game. Either burn her down fast, or if none of your dps are good enough to do that then just shoot her enough to scare her off and then go back to doing what you were doing before. Chsising a Moira is the biggest mistake you can do against her.

Nutsak posted:So I'm getting irrationally annoyed at Moira. Torb turrets are a huge pain for Moira, both because they just automatically shoot her and will 100% hit her but also because she gets no life from right clicking them. Reaper and Mei are also difficult especially for lower ranked Moiras, although Reaper its usually more with getting dove him him, he's probably not just going to be hanging around the backline defending vs a diving Moira. Also, another Moira is a pretty effective counter if you're playing support. They will just gently caress off and go somewhere less annoying to deal with.

Cpt_Obvious posted:Did anyone else lose a full metal rank in all of their roles? Cuz I did. I worked up from Bronze to Silver 5,4 over the whole season and then when the new season game I was told I ended at Gold 4. This whole having to work up to your metal rank is kinda absurd. So I thought I was a Silver 4 player but apparently I've been match made as a Gold 4 without knowing it. Oh yeah everyone gets reset WAY down, so you can enjoy the progression of the indicator growing back to where you are. Your hidden rank is used to queue into games but you have to win like 30 games (or lose 140) to actually know your real rank. Your visual rank is a joke so you feel like you are progressing back up each season.

Yeah that's great especially when it deranks you to a full metal tier below and then you're not able to role pick with your buddies because you're too low and have to solo grind on your own time to get back up to the metal tier you were, relying on the largesse of pubbies and hoping you can eke out enough wins for a rank update. Cool, Blizzard.
