friendly reminder there´s a limit of bullshit you can pull up to customers, note paying customers, when it´s up it´s up and after that i dont give a fuck all about anything they release.
Not giving betas to longtime customers is a pretty good way to ensure i´m giving the cold shoulder to Legion, LotV and other new releases as well

5 games in and I am done. Too teamwork focused for solo play and alot of characters feel really useless against a good composition. Defenders win most of time, easier to have a comp to stop pushes than it is to push.
>>317258592
I'd like this. Something to make characters useful if its not straight up Attack or Defend

I see a problem of having too much health/shield stacks on a team. Feels the game isn't balanced remotely around not having a good team composition. 2-3 shield users already feels like you are strong enough to not lose vs pubs.

This>>317258368

I just played 3 games and dominated them all with the medic. Nobody picks the healer and like in all games, the healers are fucking overpowered and you will lose if your team doesn't have it.

That doesn't even scratch the surface of the games problems, though.

Maps are way too small, and every corridor is so claustrophobic you can't see anything. You can really tell Blizzard are rookies when it comes to FPS maps.

The guns have no feedback and feel weak, all of the guns feel exactly the same, I can't tell how much damage I should be doing when playing a so called "dps" class or a tank. They all feel the same.

The game is just a massive clusterfuck with everyone just getting killed from behind because the maps have so many corridors you can't cover every backpath, which just leaves you getting killed from behind while shooting at someone else in front of you.

CTF, FFA, TDM, InstaGib, Domination, Zombies, whateverthefuck Evolved was etc.
oh yeah and add a fucking tradecenter / chllout hub coz it was cash in TF2

Quite a few heroes just feel way to strong. I understand balance is a thing that is being worked on, but some of them are very obvious things that shouldn't be a thing at all. You can have a team composed entirely of larger characters with more health and stomp the other team based on that alone. Shields make the game generally unenjoyable. It feels like a constant lock behind a wall with heads popping out. In terms of performance, on my GTX 970 I should be able to maintain 60 FPS, but I cannot. I had to lower a few settings to do that. This game, although it has nice art, is not graphically impressive enough to be causing Frame Rate Drops on a GTX 970. I played three characters. All of them had a common problem: The movement feels slow. I expected very fast, very smooth gunplay, comparable to Call of Duty, but in a Team Fortress 2 environment. Instead it feels like a slower version of Team Fortress 2. The odd part is, despite it feeling so incredibly slow, the 1v1 Battles are just too quick. Even with a weapon that is not hit scan things are far too fast to hit unless they are, standing behind a shield for instance, and you get incredibly lucky. What I found was that the weapons do not sound strong they sound generally weak, with the exception of the hitmarkers, the game feels far too silent. The absolute biggest issue I have though is not even any of these, it is that it generally feels boring. When a match is happening there is far too much running and not enough shooting, I would compare it to playing Battlefield without Vehicles of any kind, that is how slow it feels. I think to compensate for this ingame Music could be implemented, much like in Heroes of the Storm. It would help keep things "Noisy" for lack of a better word. In terms of actual feedback regarding server performance the matches I played were incredibly stable when we were actually playing.

top fucking kek

they haven't made a statement because they are going to make you buy any heroes they make beyond the first 21

it's why they explicitly stated during blizzcon that buying Overwatch gets you "all 21 heroes currently in the game" and not "all heroes ever"

It feels like TF3. I mean really it's got all the same shit going on except that there is this MOBA-esque model for the characters with ultimates and there being so many of them.

SUPER polished, I just don't know how much longer a TF gameplay style can hold my interest anymore. I mean so far they haven't innovated much in terms of the gameplay modes.

If you're some kind of underage b& though that never played any TF you will be in for a treat.

My only problem right now is turrets. In a pub it can just put everything to a standstill. I'm sure in an organized game though there are a billion ways around them.
>>
>>317262730
Great post, I agree with you on most fronts.
Winston is literally the best tank by a large margin, has speed comparable to Tracer, and deals as much damage as half the roster.
Most tanks deal as much damage as anyone else, but can soak up more themselves and are just inherently better.
Literally the only counter I've found to a tank swarm is countering with at least 2 (already set-up) Bastions.
I haven't gotten a chance to try everyone's Ultimates yet, but most of them feel underwhelming out of some of the Assassin's. Especially Bastion.

As for the sound, I agree the game spends too much time doing nothing sound-wise and visually. Needs some major tweaking.

>>317263020
That's because they'd get bored of only Payload and Capture Points The Game very quickly and then give up on it before they release the first wave of B2P characters.
>>
>>317263696
Underwhelming, especially some of the Assassin's. And ESPECIALLY BASTION.*

Holy fuck this. Just played two capture games in a row and all we had to do was spam turrets from dwarf and symmetra then just afk at the point. Neither team could do anything and just stood around until the timer ran out.
>>
Just played a few matches. It was pretty fun.

D.Va a cute
>>
>>317263564
>turrets
I agree most ppl don't know how to deal with them. The trick is mostly any character with AoE. grenades, landmines (which will explode around corners), Bastion's Ult, etc.
That is, if the Torbjorn/Symmetra know what they are doing, which with the addition of the swarm of Weekenders, is very unlikely.

This game makes me miss vanilla TF2: a game where the devs knew exactly what they wanted and every class was balanced well because you didn't need to take into account flying mechs and timetraveling roadrunners.

It's everything that's wrong with most modern games. Cast a wide net to make sure it has something for everyone instead of making a tight and focused package.

I hope everyone gets into the beta so they can see what a mess the game is.

The writing was on the wall. They went too far with the dumbing down and now the game feels stale as fuck. Combine this with the complete lack of community features and it is a trainwreck.

THIS. THIS THIS THIS.
All most devs do is muddle their game so it appeals less to anyone specifically and more to everyone generally.
It ruins MANY games. World of Warcraft, most other MMOs, TF2, hell, even fucking MOBAs like LoL. It's just misery incarnate for anyone who wants to dedicate themselves to something they love.

To quote some Blizzard tard,
"We plan to add more modes for release. The Beta is about ironing out bugs related to characters, connectivity, and balance."
Or something like that.
Release will basically be a 2nd Beta to test everything else including a digital store with all the buyable garbage that needs to be "tested."

Jesus christ, even call of duty isn't this casual and dumb. At least in call of duty a turret will only aimbot you when it turn to your direction and only if you're close enough for it to detect you.

Overwatch they just instantly aimbot you from across the map the moment you step out from a corner. Bravo.

Only thing OP about D'va is how if you kill the mech she gets another free shot to get a mech. If you ult kills even once person you get your mech back. Makes for retarded situations where you should have died 3x over but you keep getting a full heal that turns into a team-wide nuke.

Bit misleading and that last part is false

If her mech is destroyed then she goes down to 150 max hp, has a 20 shot rapid fire pistol that requires sick leads, and has no abilities. She slowly charges a mech delivery, about 1%/sec. Damage increases it faster, as usual with other ults.

As for the bomb ult, you don't even have to kill anyone to get an instant refund. I don't even think you have to damage anyone and if you do its probably only one damaged hero needed to get the refund. Thing is that it's instakill on everything but the tankiest heroes and lv 3 turret, no matter the range.

Just use Lucio's speed to kite while shooting his balls at people, the longer you live, the longer everyone lives. That with a really high base move speed and his ability to burst speed when you switch tracks and "crank it up" makes him hard to deal with, even for a tracer.

His gun will probably seem really weak at first but the right click is good at pushing people away from objectives and the left click makes for decent suppressing fire.

I have 550 hours on record, been playing since the day it came out with the orange box, and demomans have never really been a problem until recently. I think your memory betrays you. Assuming both teams were decent everything was well balanced both within teams and between teams.

And in my post you quoted I was actually talking about the games design, both gameplay design and visual design. You can't argue that TF2 is focused and Overwatch is ADD design student's first assignment tier

This game is pretty fun but there is definitely some bullshit which leads to you dying to complete nonsense. Also the 'play of the game' is pretty hilarious, i can get a really nice triple kill or even bomb their whole team, yet the play of the game will be footage of some hanzo killing one person with his ult then running around for 6 seconds then killing a guy at point blank with an arrow, or it'll be the dwarf faggot just literally dropping a turret then running around for 7 seconds looking for a health pack.

I forgot to mention but yeah, the turret situation gave me definite TF2 flashbacks.

I like the idea of turrets as a combat aid. I also like the idea of something that can interfere a little bit with the pace, flow, strategy of the game. But yeah all too often it just KILLS the pace and flow instead of varying it, total opposite of their goal and everything just starts to revolve around "okay how do we break the next turret placement."
