You didn't even properly catch the part where the aimbot freaked out you stupid cunt. The rapid triple movement to the right as the player fights with the bot is what made it obvious.

i'll play it if i can go a week without hearing a blizzdrone defend the game by shit talking something else. or if it goes f2p and gets some depth. every match requires you switch characters and use every single move per life to do anything - its like the mindset of world of shitcraft shoved into a polished bastardized tf2

I've seen this complaint a lot, and while I don't much care for the game itself I don't see how this is inherently bad. It's just an alternate take on balance, by making characters more niche, and making switching easy, rather than focusing on making each character viable as a "main".

played it to lvl17 and got the full experience.
It goes in the heap with Battleborn from 2 weeks ago.'

blizzards new marketing tactic: overwatch. play because blizzard made it, stay for the butts - defend it and shit on anything remotely similar because they already know their fanbase is willing to pay endlessly to be part of the cult and since their fanbase hates video games its free /v/ marketing since they'll populate here and shitpost endlessly. WoW kids used to make up most of /v/ for a very long time and theyre fucking degenerates, they get suckered into paying like $300 for a game which means they HAVE to defend everything about it and explain why anything not WoW is shit.

competitive pokemon single battles are all about just switching pokemon endlessly until you get a single leg up and then you just win. its similar to that. every character has perfect counters to the point where its IMPOSSIBLE to play as a single character. autism requirements are too high. in tf2 you could go entire games playing as one class, and only using one weapon if you chose to and if you were good your skill kept you alive, in this part of your skill has to be memorizing perfect counters and constantly shifting characters.
>>
>>337053960
well thats a shit design that doesnt belong in FPS genre that are supposed to be about mechanical skills and reaction, granted overwatch has neither of those
>>
>>337053870
It will probably be different in ranked

But I expect the ranked being a shitfest
>>
>>337053960
not the guy you're replying to but I think you're being a bit extreme.

I will gladly play 1 character all game and adapt my playstyle as you see fit. My bro used to tell me "You can't counter skill" whenever we played LoL. He'd always pick into bad matchups because it was his favorite character. At the end of the day it turns out you can't counter skill.

So if you're getting "perfect countered" maybe you should reassess your strategy
>>
>>337053960
That's why it's stupid to have a FPS game with like 30 characters in it. You can't possibly balance skill and 'counters'.

>giving blizzard even one more penny

i don't think what they say and do as a company most of the time is ok, so i am not going to give them anything at all even for the small stuff i DO like.

/rant
>>
>>337054268
not in overwatch. i played a single character for 5 hours yesterday - i suggest you try the same. characters are stagnant to a specific playstyle.
>>
>>337054659
its easy to think you can main someone untill you realise a character in overwatch is like 1/3th of a character in tf2.
>>
>>337053870
Switching resets your ultimate ability charge, so there's a strong incentive not to keep switching.
Also it's not a 1v1 game. Instead of you switching to counter the enemy that's causing you trouble one of your team can. Or just work with your team even if none of you directly counter a troublesome enemy.
>>
>>337054331
hate to be that guy - but you totally can battleborn did it using the helix system. miko will always be miko, but halfway through a match you could have an ultra fast high healing miko or a fairly offensive low healing miko. tf2 boiled classes down perfectly to exact roles - overwatch decided there could be more roles but made none of them on their own viable which is why it tells you how shit your team is before a match "you need more support characters" / "too many snipers" they already made a formula for matches because of perfect counters

I've literally only played Torbjorn and Junkrat 12+ hours on both. Hit and run, camping, support, frontline offensive. All viable ways to play Torb. Junkrat can hold the line, push a line, assassinate a back line with clever c4 jumps.
You can get to places no one else can if you double c4 jump.


Theres a bunch of characters specific techniques that are to be discovered.

It's as >>337054980 says

It's a team game, use your team.

Like any other competitive game?

>>337055476
>know enemy tank is reinhardt
>suddenly get jumped and smacked by a giant gorilla because he switched
maybe not a good example but i wouldnt like something like that to happen in a ranked game because its imo a clusterfuck. I wish they went with typical moba style where you lock in a character and play him for the whole match or at least till the end of the round. I also wish you couldnt lock in characters that the enemy team already picked but we'd need more heroes and better dev for balancing it out for that. Having two or more of the same character in single game kinda takes out the fun for me
>>
>>337049594
Nope, asked for a refund after the second day of beta. It feels like the same shit as WoW PvP, you can't do anything on your own.
>>
>>337056217
Switching heroes will be a key part of strategy in "serious" play. It's something that separates it from being a very simplistic FPS MOBA.
>>
>>337056515
try some call of duty kiddo, team based shooters obviously aren't for you

>the ol bait and switch
I thought that would be the case when I first played but when you consider the time it takes to run back to the objective after dying it's not really a thing.
At the start of a match you want to hide so the attacking team can call out the picks from the window. They'll be able to switch without penalty at that point in the game.

But I agree, I wish you were locked in to your character choice because that reinforces teamwork. HOWEVER when it comes to the better players winning more often I think it's a healthier choice.

There have been games where I switched to a character I don't really play because I know it'll blow out the defense real quick and no one on my team could pull it off. I do it, get it done, go back to my main guy.

So yeah, I'm neither here nor there on it after playing the game for a bit.

Do you think they'll have it where you stick with the hero you chose at the start and can't switch off, or like in Dirty Bomb where you can pick 3 heroes and switch during the game?

It's a fun casual shooter to play with friends and do some sick "press A to win" moments.

The way blizzard rationalized it is that you're getting 21 heroes for one flat price instead of having to buy them individually.

I'm not going to spend 40€ on this shit.

which is better? this or battleborn Im assuming both are shit but surely one is slightly less shitty.

Overwatch if you like TF2. Battleborn if you like MOBAs.

No, but you can set it to 60 tickrate in custom games, so there's already support for it
