There is only one thing I don't like in this game. The auto kick for auto kicks in after five seconds.

Even through I didn't save it, but I got play of the game as D.VA by killing one person and then pushing Mei off a cliff. Which that poor Mei player tried to use a ice wall to cross a pit later and got pushed into the pit again.

Weird, I tried to install Battlenet on my other PC to install Overwatch there, but it refuses to accept my password. Which I know is right since I had to login on the authoricatior and the same password that worked there doesn't work on the desktop. I imagine it just the servers being swamped by the game, but still a weird issue.

I have the opposite problem. I can plink people's heads all day, but I haven't pulled off a good high noon once. Usually I get killed while it's charging or I have to fire early and kill nothing.

I been doing better at using High Noon when I sneak around where the enemy team is at and try to catch them off guard. By the time they near "it's high noon" it too late for them to counter.

Who's y'all's favorite 'Alright, Time To Quit Fuckin' Around' hero? For me, it's usually Lucio because the team sucks at healing and I can make more of a difference keeping everyone barely alive than taking out one idiot OOP as Widowmaker..

D.VA, I tend to be hard to kill as her and just get really aggressive as her.

Man Zarya is pretty drat fun once you get a hang of her. Any general tips on playing her besides shielding allies and yourself when enemies are up? I took to using the right mouse attack when below 50 and switching to the beam when higher.

When shields are up, you can bait Rip-Tires to save your team and build tons of energy.

Oh nice. I actually been trying to do that, but the Soldier 76 on my team kept blowing it up before I could see if it works. Good to know that is a legit plan.

Yeah Zarya is pretty drat fun. Her ultimate when it paired with another person is just beautiful. I love Junkrat and Pharah attacking at the same time as I fired it off and we wiped out nearly the whole team, which costed them the game.

Man I should tried Symmetra sooner, she is pretty fun to play as. Never knew until playing her how deadly that laser she can shoot out can get. It went through Reinharlt in seconds when he got distracted by a turret. Any general tips on to use her. I seem to took some cues from people I played on where to stick turrets.

I find Symmetra useful on not just D but also Offense, Her right click attack is pretty good at jamming defensive spots.

I just tried her on offensive and yeah she pretty good in that. Love the Reinharlt player's reaction to the fact her orb goes through the shield, as he suddenly ran downstairs and got quickly killed by a teammate.

The only thing I don't like in Overwatch is the AFK script. It understandable if your playing solo, but when in a group match, it sucks if you get interrupted and get kicked out of the match and have to spectate a match. And the added lovely bonus of afk kicks I imagine count toward the leaver punishment.

That was a close match I had with my friend that I was sure we were going to lose. I was pretty lovely as Pharah the whole match, but pulled a crazy move at the end that wiped the other team out and got the win.

And my reward after the match was a loot crate with the Safari Winston skin. :toot:

Think I am finally getting the hang of Winston. Is it the right idea to jump over the enemy, put up a wall and zap them, and then jump out as my HP is about halfway down? Doing this I got 15 'kill streak' on the Hollywood map. Man it feels good just constantly ruining Reinharlt by going into rage mode and just punching him across the map. Just wish Rage did more damage, as I rarely kill anyone using it.

Trying to figure out how to play Lucio. I feel like I am not doing enough healing with him and I don't get what the numbers in the center are doing.

I pretty good at Mercy and Zenyetta, but Mercy is kinda boring to play since like TF2 Medic I just attached to whoever is hurt, with the ultimate being used when it needed. While I like Zenyetta a lot, but he is very frail, and if there no Reinhardt on the team then he is very valuable to being killed.

Play of the Match doesn't sound as good as Play of the Game.

I won 1 game of competitive and am now retiring unbeaten.

Same. While I wouldn't mind having a golden gun for McCree, I don't really want to go through it looks like 299 matches and pray I never have a internet issue in the middle of a match or get serve penalty.

If Blizzard is smart, they should make the weekly brawl just be only Ana (or only snipers), that way people can try her out without having half the team being her in a regular match. She looks good, even through I am awful at snipers and very rarely play Hanzo or Widowmaker for that reason.

Actually Super Monday Night Combat was good and fun and it only died because the developers started nickel and diming microtransanction poo poo while at the same time adding no new content or fixing any issues ebcause they'd started funneling all the profits towards their other games Planetary Annihilation and Human Resources. I don't think there's been a patch for SMNC since I quit the game years ago, balance or content.

The announcers in that game were amazing.

That and I remember the game was really bad at pairing groups up. Like a team of random low ranking people get pair up against a team of high level pros. Which got really unfun when this kept happening. Think this probably made the new player base leave along with the issues mentioned above.
