Maybe you are just getting old and dumb, OP.
Maybe you are colour blind.

>>337679059
Might be. That happens with alot of games, actually. I'm not really into fast action games, but every time I play one, I just get disoriented really quick. However for a games with simpler graphics, this is not a case.
>>
>>337678984
I had the same issue, but i was also looking for reason to not like the game.
>>
What game is that? It does look blurry as fucking shit. Did someone smear vaseline on the monitor. It's a 2016 release on PC, right? It has no excuse.

How anon? Just how?

This desu. I was playing on the lowest res with blurry as shit graphics using intel integrated graphics and the super glowing red the enemies did when not in view was pretty obvious.

Why does overwatch look the same no matter the setting? Very low is almost similar to ultra

At least it run on a potatoes computer, that's a thing ...

Wait, it does!?
I have an AMD A4-7300, 2gb ram. Can I play? Will you gift me the game once it's out? I'm poor

From the thumbnail I thought this was a new pod racing game. I was all excited, now I am sad and leaving.

If you ever listened to the developer messages in TF2 you can see all the steps the designers went into creating characters that were easily discernible from each other and their environment. The silhouette test is the most obvious, but there were just a lot of nuances from colors to sound design that made sure that made sure you knew what was firing at you. Some of these design philosophies went by the wayside later on, but vanilla TF2 did a great job with character design which is pretty essential for a class based first person shooter, especially when you can change your class midgame.

I haven't played Overwatch or watched much of it, but it relies on having outlines which sort of muddles the character. Along with various skins I could see that a lot of people would have a similar problem with identifying the enemies.

Thing is the entire silhouette design theory was thrown out the window as soon as hats were added.

Valve pulled the same crap with Dota 2, promising they wouldn't repeat the mistakes they made with Team Fortress 2

Enemies have glowing red outlines around them

If you have trouble seeing them then I have serious concerns about your health
>>
>>337678984
Enable the colourblind option.

You are colourblind.
>>
>>337680672
because that's not true and you're retarded

low vs epic makes a huge difference and 1440p or even 4k make it look fucking great
>>
>>337678984
Well if you are playing a compressed youtube video then I imagine you might have trouble making out the characters
>>
>>337682661
Even with hats you can see by postures the classes in tf2
>>
>>337683718
The same applies to Overwatch with size of characters + posture.

Even dressed up like a genie you're not going to confuse Zenyatta for somebody else.

Even before noticing the names I knew who those characters in the distance were and I have like 2 hours of game time. Holy shit... are you 12 and new to this whole V I D E O G A M E S thing?
>>
>>337681701
It's a blizzard game. If blizzard is king of anything, it's making their games run on toasters.

My pretty old gaming laptop can run the game on low-medium BUT at fullhd with constant 60fps that never drop.

this is the best running AAA game of 2016 for sure

>>337678984
There is a giant glowing red name above them.
Just aim below that shit.

Is there some kind of viral campaign going on to try to undermine this game or does /v/ just hate popular things this much?

whenever i see a webm of this game i literally cannot distinguish any characters, and i mean any except reaper or reinhardt, if they arent right in front of the player

what the fuck

its like they all look like fucking mechs or something

I don't think I've had a single case of not instantly identifying enemies once I was playing the game

the game is a mess
somehow they made it even worse than what tf2 became

this is how you win. done full team winstons a few times and was unstoppable.

You might need glasses anon.
>>
>>337678984
Maybe try turning off some of the post processing? A lot of games these days think it's cool and realistic to do depth of field blurring shit and it really just pisses me off. That and motion blur.
>>
They have a big red outline, the only time I didn't see a character is on that one map with red walls.
>>
>>337692304
Just have a Bastion to cut them all down.
>>
I'm assuming you're playing on a console and are sitting 10 feet from the TV.
>>
>>337678984
The silhouettes aren't as naturally defined as they are in TF2, but they compensate for that with the red outlines on opponents.
>>
>>337678984
Enemies have a fucking red outline around them. You're blind and your graphics are shit
>>
>>337683058
Possibly this. Try it.
>>
>>337692304
2 winston is pretty common in ranked

2 tank 2 support is the meta
>>
>>337692885
He's more of a disruptor really, delivering hot monkey schlong to every qt backline support
>>
>>337693653
This. I really hate how characters like Reaper and Soldier 76 can open Winston up like a he's a gift-wrapped present with their offense. But hey the trade-off is that he can kill Genji's and Tracer's without much fuss which only leaves four other combat-oriented heroes to put him down.
>>
>>337680185
this still looks like shit though
>>
>>337693653
>>337693968

Don't forget his Primal Rage which gives him a big HP boost + insane mobility. He's great for stalling capture points.
>>
>>337693653
>>337693968
>he has low DPS
That's why you have 2 of them. His gun can hurt multiple targets and go through shields; when you double that damage and give it two personal shields you end up with teams melting. Makes Reinhardt completely and utterly useless.
>>
>>337694803
It also allows him to get environment kills as he can easily knock people off the map on certain maps.
>>
>>337684508
you think that looks fine? top fucking kek m9

>>337687829

this game looks so damn good, I can't get oover it.

It's the best looking game I've ever seen.
