This game is a joke but I liked it. It's casual enough that I can play without problem using a gamepad.

Post your most played char, and the char you hate having to deal with the most. I'm trying to figure out a list of counters.

What's Mei's counter?
>>
>>336621753
I play Torbjorn every time it's a defense game. For some reason he's really underrated in blogs and with streamers. But I always seem to wreck people with him. I guess it comes down to smart turret placement and learning to aim, because his gun is pretty awkward to use. Also you can armor yourself. He's pretty easy to counter with anyone who has good range, like Widowmaker or Pharah or even Mcree.

Most irritating character is probably Genji. Luckily he got nerfed and is squishy as fuck now, so you actually have to be strategic and can't just charge in hacking at everyone.

Good snipers counter mei. One headshot and she's gone with no chance to ice-block.

Anti-sentry/Bastion, I think. His shuriken don't have any damage fall off, so he can just snipe them and reflect if he starts taking fire

>>336624081
Pharah probably

Dwarf engie, India engie, or maybe junkrat. Or maybe someone to flank and harass the enemy whike they focus on your tanks.

Um Bastion has a critical hit spot that makes him take 2x damage. It used to be 3x.

Aura healing is way better than single target healing though that Mercy and Zenyatta do. It heals through walls, heals constantly without even thinking about it. Then you hit E and heal much faster.
Lucio is just the support to play when no one picks support.

>weapon is garbage
The only support without a garbage weapon is Symmetra and to use it fully she has to be in melee range anyways. His knockback is insanely good.

What's the point of Zen's alt fire anyway? You do better damage just orb of discording before an LMB attack. If you could hold the charge indefinitely, maybe it would have been more useful for ambushes, but as it is it's just hoping you get lucky with someone peeking out at the right moment.

Anyone else feel like after the hype dies down this will just become another E-sport bait game that only try-hards play? The barrier of entry is higher because it's Buy to Play and I don't think most plebs will pay to play this after playing the open beta.

Ults kinda ruin the game imo. Way too many ways to get one shotted when in TF2 I think the only way for that to happen was sniper headshot.

I think once most people get tired of the incredibly low ttk on anything other than tanks they'll stop playing.

I just got a duplicate spray, and was granted a whopping 5 credits. I thought I read that you get face value for each duplicate. Sprays are either 25 or 50c (I forgot to check), making it a fucking 1/10 or 1/5 the value. That means it will literally take 300 years to be able to save up for a legendary skin unless you get godly luck in the boxes with the credits. Now I'm starting to worry about an in-game cash shop because it doesn't seem realistic to be able to get the good skins.

When it's boosted it is fantastic but when it isn't it's barely noticeable and won't save anybody who is in any real danger. You would get vastly more effective healing by having a mercy zooming around the map and healing people individually. Her mobility is absolutely fucking nuts.

No. Fuck you. If I'm playing correctly as my character and Johnny painthuffer can see me behind the wall and pops his ult coming around the corner to insta gib me it's not good gameplay. I bet he feels like a pro, too.

Better to ult when there's a big fray going on and people are busy focusing on the rest of your team, it'll be either disengage or die for them.

If you're running in by yourself on a controlled point they'll see it coming from a mile away, plus they'll have tons of time to run behind a wall because they're not doing anything else except standing around.

Half the times where I did switch, it's like it got worse. As a tank trying to hold a point or pushing the payload, I'd get very little support - everyone's off running around looking for players to kill. As Mercy, the healee either rushes to their death instead of backing off a bit or they ignore the guy behind or to the side of them trying to kill me.

I'll admit tank and support aren't my preferred roles, but fuck man this shouldn't be that hard to coordinate. It's like the other guy said, I probably just need to get some friends into this.

Don't.

Its better to force the other team out of the area than to use it as an actual killing tool.

alright so I can't tell if this is just me or what but I'm trying to play this on PS4. I install the beta and when I go in it just says "game installing" and I can't do anything beyond the tutorial. It's been like this for an hour or so which seems way too long for me so I don't know if it's actually installing or just busted or what.

Also when I installed it the beta was labeled as "music player" for some reason.

>>
This game is impossible to play without voice comms or a good team. There's nothing to indicate that you're getting flanked and if you're a shitter like Mercy or Zenyatta you can't defend yourself.
>>
This game is trying to artificially create a unique experience. Like they're trying to breed Napoleon in a test tube with genetic sequencing. Just like HotS, just like WoW, they're trying and failing to replicate.

It's trying to do it by checking off boxes, by throwing spaghetti at a wall and hoping something sticks, by taking bits and pieces of the successes of others and jamming it into one lumpy wad of chewing gum.

It's like if I wanted to compete with Disneyland AKA I want to create a one-of-a-kind experience that exists as a cultural touchstone in an entire society.

So what do I do? I gather a team of scientists and marketers and we start thinking. What makes Disneyland special? I mean, you gotta have rides! And cartoon characters that walk the park! And a... train! You gotta have a parade every night. People seem to love Dole Whip, so get a soft serve machine in there ASAP! We check all the fucking boxes and we open the park and... it just isn't magical. At all. It's empty. It's lifeless. The mascots walk around and talk to me but I don't know who they are. This ones a samurai, I guess? And this one has an accent. What about Robot the Talking Robot! That's gotta be cool, I mean, robots are cool.

But it's not. I don't care.

Sometimes it all works without a mic. But im pretty sure its all luck or players being smart. Like taking objective B is always a pain since the enemy spawn is close and turtling. All of a sudden your team uses all their Ults right after another to push for the cap.

Lucio and Mercy make a very good support core. For singular healing, he's worse but the fact that he cover most of his team at once more than makes up for it.

>>336627318
more like
>Every PuG team is full of people who pick DPS classes and do shit DPS

The number one cause of losses I've seen is that the team just doesn't put out enough damage. I was in this one game with Widowmaker, Genji, McCree, and Reaper where I got gold with 1k damage as Roadhog.
People are just bad at shooting guys.

He's real good with your team is camping hold holding an objective. If they are all off on their own, I prefer Mercy
>>
>>336627704
favorite is fine. It means you have a favorite but won't sacrifice the team makeup to play it.

Main is tryhard esports bullshit where you're trying to reach top 1% of play with any given character so you play them no matter what even if it means a poor team makeup and since you've put in 500 hours into that one character you become an elitist bitch when the team doesn't carry you to "EZ" victory.
>>
>>336627863
Lucio's heal is garbage if he doesn't use his E on it. It's basically a weaker version of Mercy's passive heal with a limited range.

You pick Lucio as a generalist support, not as a dedicated healer.
>>
>>336625828
Not just this. The maps are inherently terrible.
Nothing feels interesting or memorable, it's all cluttered bullshit with hundreds of ways to wrap around despite the point being completely empty most of the time.

Like if they just cut out half the ways to the point, the maps would be better, but as it stands the maps are mazes, designed to split up casual play in favor of giving comp play slightly more option. (In reality, it doesn't even work like this. You'll end up with tracer/widowmaker duels, and pushes designed more around killing one enemy from a distance before steam rolling through the same choke every time.)

What are you talking about? It's balanced. Did you think you were playing a high skill ceiling FPS or something?

>>336627863
Lucio is the best support in the game. His passive healing aura is shit but its great when amped up plus he gets a knockback attack, a speed boost aura, and an ult that will save a team from being wiped by other ults.
>>
>>336622971
Healing a Reinhardt as Mercy is literally a waste of a character. Her damage boost gives him fuck all, while if you heal a good offensive character like Genji you can fuck shit up on the side lines.

Yeah, a lot of the defensive maps are like that. There's a single entrance unless you have flying/sniper characters. The only thing you can really do is dash in as Tracer but if they have more than one turret you die instantly anyway.

When Reyes formed Blackwatch, they captured McCree (who was a bandit at the time) and offered him a lifetime in Jail or working for Blackwatch. He became one of thier most successful operatives, but after he realized shit was about to go down between Reyes and Morrison he quickly bounced and went rogue.

You can go over the wall with a lot of characters and use surprise
You can also go in that door right in front of the gate that is very easy to get to and lets you flank all the way around to the point.

Real talk, this game is enjoyable to a degree.

Team balance is nice when the game informs you for the lack of "X".

The huge issue right now is people who are more about "hero mains" then being diverse.

I can understand wanting to play a single class and master it, but in a game with a roster this big (even though some games had bigger rosters) the idea of hard-counters or compositions are important for moderate success.

Of course nothing fucking matters in pugs, but it's annoying to think that you could be the only competent attacking class, and the lack of tank which you would feel obligated to switch to help fill, also means the lack of damage for your "no longer present" performance. It's annoying.

Either find friends to play with, or learn how to play the more diversely playable class who's talents and style of play don't lock him into a specific role.
