iTrust posted:There have not been any allegations made about Kaplan specifically. Only inferences. I feel like it's pretty lovely to suggest Jeff was an abuser. Given that some high profile Blizzard names were outed during #metoo, it doesn't make any sense for him not to also be outed if that was the case. I think it's more likely that he left/was let go because his vision for OW2 didn't match management's. but we live in the worst of all possible worlds so I'll probably be proven wrong

Ashcans posted:So assuming you don't grind out a new character with a BP, what happens after it's done? Does the character move behind some other unlock system, do you just never get them, or do they just sort of unlock automatically after some time? They're locked behind an as-yet-undisclosed system but I would absolutely bet that you can also pay real cash/OW funbux to unlock them as well.

Countblanc posted:*other roles will also have to get over this mental hurdle, particularly supports, and not freak out when the tanks they're used to suddenly aren't just playing as mobile shield dispensers. From my experience with the beta, supports have to look out for each other, because no other bastard will.

I found Retribution the most fun PVE mission, Storm Rising feels really short, and Uprising has that bit where the bomb is powering up that draaaaaaaaaaaags. OW2 PVE has the potential to be extremely fun.

Been playing quickplay and MH on my lunchbreak, MH feels the same as always, QP feels like you have to form a deathball at all costs. Whenever I tried to take a highground angle as Ana I'd just get mown down.

So far I'm enjoying OW2 more than I thought I would, certainly more than the beta. And lol at the "you don't need to change heroes" because I've found tank counter-picking is extremely important. Had to switch off Rein to Orisa on one push map because one enemy dps swapped to Mei, and would slow me enough that aggression was a lot harder and it was way easier to be focused down.

Minorkos posted:there are typically 2 different health states, full HP or dead. I've found this to be the OW2 support experience definitely, which is why supports with good escapes are strong, the minute you start getting chipped at you can just nope on out and you'll be full health in seconds. If you're trapped in a team fight you're just toast.

TenementFunster posted:she’s a fictional character! millions upon millions of real people speak multiple languages without a noticeable accent regardless of their place of birth. someone in middle age should not find this remarkable. Then why'd you bring up her fictional background as reasoning? Languages are hard, people hang on to their accents even if they grew up speaking the same language. I think her voice is cool, but it is remarkable for someone to live their entire life in one country and to speak the language of another without a hint of an accent. Remarkable but not worth making a big deal over.

Mind over Matter posted:Can someone please explain the Eliminations, Assists, and Final Blows to me? At first I thought that Eliminations were final hits and Assists were kills that you participated in but didn't land the last hit on. But Eliminations and Final Blows can be different numbers so I guess that's not it? AFAIK Eliminations are kills you did the majority of damage on, Assists you did some but not most, and Final Blows you did the last little bit of damage to tip it over into a kill.
