Playing Reinhardt, even with a stack, isn't very fun because the only damage dealers people seem to play are flankers so I'm slowly trudging up to the point with my shield out and literally nobody is behind it shooting at people but are instead trying to sneak around the side to get instantly owned.

Reinhardt is cool because you get to smash people into the ground and ram them into walls but most of your matches will be spent doing this;  Someone has to push the cart

I have so much more time spent on fire as Reinhardt/Lucio/Zenyatta than other characters, and it's all from doing objectives.

But don't listen to me, my reinhardt winrate is 13%.  But I got 2 reinhardt PotGs today.

Am I just unlucky? I've lost like 9/10 games today getting teams that can't handle choke points enough to cap A, or group together and coordinate ults enough to cap B. On the off chance I do get a team that at least plays decently together, the other team is way more coordinated and possibly at least partially grouped. I've loving had gold medals with 2-3 eliminations. Or they can't handle a loving Bastion. And gently caress Voskaya, it's been like half of my games and is easily the worst map. gandlethorpe fucked around with this message at 08:35 on Jun 8, 2016 |

I feel like people have gotten wise to the idea that you want a tank and a support on every team, but they haven't quite figured out the more nuanced distinction between flanking DPS and frontline DPS (though to be fair the game does a lot less to help you on that front). Every time I go into a match thinking "okay it's been a while since I had a solid game with Genji, I should play him this round" my team ends up picking Tracer and Reaper and no frontline damage dealers so I just kind of have to go "...okay I guess it's time for McCree again." (Also I still see way too many McCrees playing him as a flanker and leaning entirely on Fan and it always makes me sad. That's not what he's for! You have a left mouse button for a reason! Play your class!) Opposing Farce fucked around with this message at 08:37 on Jun 8, 2016 |

So I'm noticing a really cool pattern where attack team on payloads switch to all D. Vas and Bastions in the last 60 seconds for an unstoppable push and it's loving horseshit

Hello, this game is amazing and Junkrat is way too much fun but Zenyatta is not. I hate Widowmaker.

Saw a really weird McCree when spectating a game yesterday whom I'd almost suspect was a bot or some kinda hacked farming account. He moved super erratically and unnaturally and spent most of the match doing nothing near the spawn, occasionally running into the enemy team to fire a few shots or a burst and dying but never using his ult or trying to play even remotely believably. Every time he respawned he'd spend pretty much the exact same 10 seconds standing still and then rolling forward, taking a few steps and standing still again outside the spawn. I guess there's no reason why there wouldn't be a market for boosted high-level Overwatch accounts the same way there is for MMOs and whatnot.

Sanctum posted:I wouldn't be surprised at all if the matchmaking system was specifically selecting players with high MMR to throw into the wrong side of those groupstomps. In my experience it will keep throwing new 'good' meat in to fill leavers until the rounds start to get balanced. But if people keep quitting at the end of each game you'll get thrown into new ones and have to endure the same fate again and again until your MMR drops. It definitely feels like something's broken in the matchmaking though, whatever step in the process it might be. Games are laughably one-sided way too often. The only flaw in your theory is I'm pretty sure I've gotten a mediocre MMR at best, but maybe that's enough for it to throw me into teams of absolute incompetents to try and even it out against competent teams or something. There's also been mentions that they've been selecting matches by similar pings as well as skill, and I wouldn't be surprised if that's being way more prioritized than it should be?

Maybe, though I figure he'd be running at walls and shooting in the air or something in that case instead of repeating pretty much the same patterns several times over. It wasn't chaotic or random like a kid playing a game they don't understand, it was real stilted and mechanical to the point where I'm pretty sure the spot he stopped in outside the spawn after his wait -> roll routine was always the exact same.

He's just leeching game XP for loot boxes. Maybe there's a market for accounts with all the cosmetics unlocked though.

Guess that's Blizzard's way of telling me "it's 5am just log off already" Yeah same. I stuck around anyway since I was still in the discord room. Later we pushed 4 dvas, 1 mercy, 1 lucio through the flank spot on volskaya A and the other team just did not see us coming. That was the fastest volskaya win I've ever seen.

Do any of the other legendary skins get special voice lines/animation differences or is that just Wolf Hanzo(he is the only one I have noticed so far)? I almost have enough gold and am looking at 'Nam war looking 76 but if its just the m16 I will pass.

I'm sick of the game choosing my 5 man Junkrat ult as PotG when I manage to score 5 man kills using trick shots, environmental kills or direct hitting aerial targets. Is it BM to emote after these plays to give them better priority? I've been doing it to a pretty good effect today but I don't want to be a jerk.
