How is one company so based?

"Blizzard will permanently ban any player found cheating in Overwatch - on their first offence."

Overwatch is shit. Heres why:

No comparable stats charts means no one really knows how they did

Game is based around "Eliminations" instead of kills which are awarded to everyone who touched the enemy. So things like kill streaks mean nothing.

Too many balance issues.

Characters are too fragile so there's no room for strategy or planning

Character personalities are boring with generic, uninteresting dialog

Too little content for a full-priced game. TF2 is better, more robust and free

This game is so utterly devoid of personality, intrigue or any genuine, human emotion. I feel sick after about 30 minutes of playing it.

Something feels so wrong about this game, it reminds me of League of Legends. It's too syrupy sweet, as if it's rotting my brain just running on my computer.

Is this another unfortunate example of the shiny AAA nu-videogame (see: MOBA) that exists solely to pry open the gentrified middle class 12 year old's parents' wallets with cosmetics and waifu bait?

Dude's talking about Team Fortress 2, where yes, that did actually happen as Valve went across the board and permanently VAC'd some tom competitive players that were using aimbots to give themselves that little extra "edge". Some of the players had literally, and I mean literally thousands of dollars worth of cosmetic items in their inventory that are now forever gone and kept locked up in their banned account.

Since you're obliviously Newfags and/or Blizzard shills and need to be spoon-fed how trading worked in TF2, allow me to explain the basic concept:

Unusuals are a fairly rare drop in crates and are thus expensive to trade for. How expensive one is depends on the rarity/coolness ratio (determined by total Autists but that doesn't matter). That happened to be an incredibly rare Unusual with a very desirable effect. Thus it was expensive.

It's an objective based game. Frags don't mean that much in the grand scheme of things.
>Too many balance issues.
Opinions and did you honestly expect a roster of 23 heroes to be completely balanced out of the gate?

Literally git gud.

Subjective. Doesn't hinder gameplay much

TF2 is a way older game that started out with not all that much more content
>This game is so utterly devoid of personality, intrigue or any genuine, human emotion. I feel sick after about 30 minutes of playing it.
Subjective.
>Something feels so wrong about this game, it reminds me of League of Legends. It's too syrupy sweet, as if it's rotting my brain just running on my computer.
I don't even
>Is this another unfortunate example of the shiny AAA nu-videogame (see: MOBA) that exists solely to pry open the gentrified middle class 12 year old's parents' wallets with cosmetics and waifu bait?
If anything it's another example of Blizzard taking queue's from several genres and older successful games, blending them into something we've all seen before. But now mixed, better and genuinely fun.

Shitty console shooters for the masses of braindead consumers. Most of these had a short life span because of how shallow they are and people only bought htem because of hype:
BF4 10-30hz tickrate - shit game
BF Hardline 30hz tickrate - shit game
Titanfall 20-30hz - shit game
CoD Black Ops 3 20Hz - shit game
Destiny 10hz on pvp with 20hz on small maps - shit game
Battlefront - 30hz - shit game
Doom, probably the same shit. - shit game
Overwatch 20hz - shit game

Fun, competitive games with long life spans:
CSGO 128hz tickrate
Quake live 128hz
TF2 - 128hz


Overwatch is shit and people will stop caring after the hype dies down, just like Blunder of the Storm and all the other shitty shallow games Blizzard makes lately.

The concern here is with false positives. If someone gets accidentally mis-tagged as a cheater, either through automatic systems or through user reports, then they could be permanently banned from the game through no fault of their own. And a person could be mistagged as a cheater for any number of reasons, from a sudden performance increase through new hardware, to Blizzard putting out new rules but not letting everyone know, to screwing around with what you can do in-game, to just focusing on getting better all of the sudden.

Or, if it's based on user reports, then just playing the game well gets people reported quite frequently.

Overwatch is too simple. Let me explain:

I'll just ignore the obvious 'ultimates that rape everybody on screen and require no skill to use other than timing' and go a little deeper.

A nice way to do this is look at the TF2 counter parts.

Tracer = Scout: positioning doesn't matter for her, doesn't need to rely on moving intelligently to dodge attacks when she has a blink ability and a literal 'press this button to undo your fuck-up', also aiming is easy as shit with your only one weapon choice (not including ultimate).

Torj = Engineer: has only ONE building to manage which gets upgraded to max level 5 seconds. Resource management on him is virtually non-existent compared to the TF2 Engineer, all you use it for in Overwatch is the one upgrade for your one building and shitting out armour for teammates, repairing and building the sentry is free.

Pharah = Soldier: You don't need any skill in rocket jumping, you have a button that does it for you on top of being able to hover / ascend moreso with a jetpack. Your rocket has 6 rockets loaded and are much easier to hit than Soldier's. It's also your only weapon other than that displacing shot.

Junkrat = Demoman: Your explosives have an overly generous AOE and are easier to hit anyway, you can only place one remote mine every 8 seconds for jumping or damaging enemies and you have an immobilizing trap if aiming becomes too difficult.

Mercy = Medic: Has a Medigun and Kritzkrieg in one, can literally revive teammates she fails at healing with her ult and the only other thing she can do is shoot people with a pistol. The flying ability to stay glued to teammates is bretty cool though.

Overwatch is shit as either an FPS game or a strategy game. So it won't sell by its quality. Allow me to elaborate on this:

Let's consider Overwatch's strategy merit compared to another the-player-controls-one-unit strategy game like DOTA. Each player has ~3 skills and an ultimate, so there's parity there.

The camera perspective isn't top-down, it's first person. This makes zero sense for a strategy game and inhibits the player's ability to get an overall picture of what's going on. The controls also make it impossible for the player to ever control more than one unit, like they can in DOTA.

There are no map resources to fight over - as a strategy game, the only strategic element is the win condition.

The only option they have to sell it is manipulative marketing. Here you can see a streamer who was critical of World of Warcraft talk about how he was denied Beta access: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqpBhtq6cHE

Here you can see three TF2 YouTube celebrities are flown to Activision-Blizzard's office free of charge, given a full tour, and hundreds of dollars in merchandise + games. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7omcfb5Ttf0

And remember, straight from the lips of Jeff Kaplan, lead producer for Overwatch:

"Actually, Overwatch wasn't ported to console at some point down the line, we've been focusing mainly on it from day 1."

Couldn't have put it better myself. Everyone knows that how long you've been on 4chan doesn't determine if you are a new fag or not. First you must make sure you have played all of #1-10 on pic related. Then you must demonstrate your knowledge of dank memes that haven't been around for years.
>>
>>337479673
tl;dr when everyone is OP/easy no one is. The difference between overwatch and TF2 is in knowing how your easiness beats another characters easiness rather than individual mechanical skill. Some people like that and some don't. It doesn't mean it's simple it means it's different.

Actually comparing Overwatch to DotA is a really shitty comparison because one game is a fucking shooter and as such requires quick reflexes and aiming, and the other is not.

A much better comparison would be DotA and Warcraft 3, except you cut out base building, micro management on all your units but your hero, producing units, doing researches/upgrades and everything that is NOT microing your fucking hero. That is what DotA is, warcraft 3 for braindead retards as a team game.

Oh, everybody DOES know how they did. They do know how many shots they missed, how many times they failed in that game or conversely how much they owned. What you really want is for everybody ELSE to know how much you pwned pixels so you feel less shit about yourself.

>Game is based around "Eliminations" instead of kills which are awarded to everyone who touched the enemy. So things like kill streaks mean nothing.
Kill streaks always meant nothing. It's if you win the game or not that matters.

It's 40$, thus not fullprice 60$ as you say. Everybody and their mother has played TF2 already.

Here's a list of auto-aims in Overwatch.

Soldier 76 ultimate
Mccree ultimate
Reaper ultimate
Winston primary gun
Symmetra primary gun & turrets
Torbjorn turret
Roadhog chain (aim assist)


Here's a list of attacks which aren't auto-aim but you essentially cannot miss with them no matter how bad you are.

Bastion turret gun
Reaper primary guns
Tracer primary guns
Reinhardt primary melee
Zenyatta orb of discord
Winston ultimate
Pharah ultimate
Roadhog primary
Roadhog ultimate
Zarya ultimate
Tracer ultimate
Mei primary
Mei ultimate
Genji ultimate
D.Va primary
D.Va ultimate

Additionally, almost every character has a skill that negates all positional mistakes. For example: caught on the ground as the rocketess Pharah? No problem, just press this easy button and you're instantly in the sky, where you're most effective.

Ran yourself into a bad spot as the fragile Tracer? No problem, just press this button and you're instantly back where you were before.

Got caught in the open as the close-range Reaper? Just press your invulnerability button and float over to a healthkit. You get this and many other movement tools completely free, there's nothing you give up for them, like sacrificing health with a rocket-jump.


The tools Overwatch gives you to solve problems are contained in a single button rather than a complex and difficult set of movements and/or offensive measures. The entire game revolves around identifying the correct rock-paper-scissors situation to press your button, then pressing it. There is no serious skill of any kind involved. You're going through the motions of what you think a video game entails.

The miniscule difference between a week-old Overwatch player and a year-old Overwatch player is lost in the cloud of instakill ultimates, teleports and AOE abilities. This game is transcendentally shit and there is no escape from it. This is the very profitable future of FPS. Hell. Population: you.

Define cheating

I remember I got banned from CoD World at War for shooting the semi auto rifles too fast. Faggots complained that I was using a modded controller and later when they implemented the auto detect system and the forced slow down of firing the gun for people who passed the fire rate limit, I ended up always shooting slow ass guns and eventually got banned for it.

Had to make a temp account to play the game but was forced into the noob beginner matches which also got me banned for being too good. Some anti griefing shit.
