Almost every map except the KOTH ones are massive chokepointy pieces of spammy garbage, it's like they looked at Dustbowl and Goldrush and thought "yes, this is what good gameplay looks like". The worst offenders are King's Row, Numbani, and Hanamura, which get close to unplayable.

He's totally right about the game being easy and slow, though. Overwatch is every fps shitters dream. A game that's made solely for you to feel good about yourself and give you the illusion that you're actually good at a game.

If you think about it, defense having an edge is an elementary part of the game's design. When you're at the final objective, the attacking team only has to win a single fight to get the match whereas the defenders have to defend successfully multiple times.
Having said that, you generally can't cover all possible attack angles using bastion or turrets, and they both have hard counters.

I own Overwatch and it's pretty fun. But the maps have some really bad choke-points, the character design is literally waifu bait/pandering to the audience in designs in some cases, and those versatile skills of pressing a single button and clicking to get a free kills is the biggest croc of shit I've heard in a while.

>>
>>339468938
The chokepoints in maps are really forced into being in the same positions every time, because there's barely any way to flank the defenders in those chokepoints. The places you could set up a chokepoint that have flanks are absolutely shit because you need to defend more than 1 direction then. Like others have said, KOTH maps are good because you don't really setup any chokepoints, just try to defend the points.
>>
>>339470260
Any KOTH map almsot requires a Lucio pick, yes

Not just because of the airblast but because of the speed boost being incredibly strong there. Lucio is just really good, it's not actually the maps fault.

This, whenever i try to be the voice of reason and say "its alright" people flip a tit like im being a cynical contrarian asshole, but its legit only "ok".

Theres no depth, its a very casual game with little to offer beyond "an hour to kill with friends". Skill progression is limited and the only built in leveling system is a skinner box. The hitboxes and hurtboxes are gigantic, the characters are 1 dimensional and overall its game design is uninspired.

That said it looks nice... I think thats it... The UI is pretty good as well.

Pretty sure most people play OW to level up and get boxes and feel the thrill of opening them. The people get a lot of that small jolt of excitement while starting to play and when leveling starts to take ages, they might want to start paying money for more of the boxes.

Not saying CS:GO doesn't have these same people, but since you don't get to open any boxes for free, it's clearly not the point of playing it.

You realize OW is engineered to give people quick feelings of success with the game not having actual kills, but eliminations that you get for doing minimal damage to an enemy and then letting someone finish them off. Like play of the game which will stroke someone's ego a lot to thinking they did good. Like the post-game "voting" on things people did. They are all there just to give people feeling of success and satisfaction.

Ofc, thats why its succesfull. The loot box shit has nothing to do with it.

The point that you can put in minimal effort and get showered with praise from the game is what makes it so appealing to the general population.

On the other hand saying that it requires no skill is wrong also. As its hilarious watching a team get taken down by 1 great player.

It managed to strike a nice balance, where good players can feel accomplished by pulling off consecutive rocket body hits, and the shitters get showered with "kills" on their screen making em feel good.

Do you remember how TF2 had multiple passage ways our routes to the end goal on the map? You were given different ways to approach the objective for some flexibility. Well Overwatch has none of that for their maps; its just a straight line down the middle. Not to mention 80% of the KotH maps have ledges surrounding or in the middle covering up half the "hill" making easy for a character to push you off and get an easy kill with no effort required..

There's actually a number of flanking paths around choke points not including characters who can just jump/fly/climb/teleport past choke points, the problem is that most people just see the one path and think that's it.

Pharah can fly
Junkrat can use his mine to reach vantage points
Widowmaker does the same with her grappling hook while being a pretty safe sniper
Hanzo can climb walls
Genji can double jump AND climb and wall run
Lucio can wall run
Reaper can teleport
Tracer has the best horizontal mobility bar none
McCree's roll isn't really used to get in but it automatically reloads his weapon and is a big reason why he's retarded so it's worth mentioning.
D.Va can fucking fly
Winston hops all over the place like a madman
Mercy can fly to any ally within her line of sight over a fairly large range
Bastion can rocket jump while in Tank mode
76 can as well with Helix rockets but it's not as big of a deal given the cooldown
Mei can use her walls to assist allies in reaching points they wouldn't be able to
Symmetra can build teleporters

So no, the characters actually have quite a few options to get around in many cases.

Hanamura has only one point to go through if you don't include characters with a move like that, and on the first point even the "flank" for characters with a shift that allows them into the window is right next to the actual choke and thus super easy to shut down

You're naming a whole bunch of speeding up shit that really doesn't matter when it comes to traversing the map or going around chokes, very little is vertical.

The game gives you plenty of tools to address various situations.

Wow yeah, big surprise, teamplay in a teambased game fucking helps. What the fuck do you think the defense is doing? Jerking off in a corner? Bad map design still makes for shitty games, and binary movement skills that you can generally not use to move around quickly but only use once every 10 seconds don't help much with that.

Seriously, maps like Hanamura are legit retarded in design. It becomes very annoying to play on maps like that because you can't choose your preferred game mode and would rather play Ilios or Lijang instead, because they're actually pretty good.

Yes, actually. Defense wins more often at bottom levels because people are retarded enough to conga line into turrets all day without considering their surroundings. Defense doesn't have to take as many risks to attain victory. They aren't any better than their opponents 90% of the time. The map design isn't the problem, shitty players are the problem, and mobility skills actually tend to have pretty short cooldowns or none at all.

You realize you can have it both ways, right? You can have a map that's fun and interesting to play for both parties without horrendous chokes? Unless you like shit like Dustbowl or something, which they seem to have taken design ideas from.

Seriously, look at this shit. There are no ways into the first point except these two I marked, and they both get easily covered by defenders standing on the point or to the left of it. The second point is a little better, but there the main route in is lower (at a disadvantage to the attackers), and the flanks don't even exist for anyone that doesn't have an ability to jump over the gap. Many classes only have one way in, and defense can here cover two out of three options at once easily (and all three if they have some running on the front top side). It's just shit map design, sorry.

I'm aware of how Hanamura works. I'm also aware that above low levels, Hanamura Offense actually wins more often than not. Aside from being able to use mobility to maneuver around the map, there are also characters like Reinhardt, Zarya, Lucio, etc that can enable pushes and smash through these chokepoints with relative ease. These maps do not overly favor defense as much as people think that they do.

>>339477443
D.Va is trash and rarely accomplishes anything against people that know what they're doing. She needs buffs fucking badly.
>>
>>339477443
How is a D.Va going to shut down the defense team completely? What? Random occurences don't really make for better map design, you could also say the defense team is randomly very good and a Reinhardt and Bastion completely locked everything down. Who knows? It's beside the point.
>>
>>339477556
Any game with an attack/defense mode has, when competent teams fight each other, attack win more often than defense. It's just in the nature of things - defense only needs to lose one team fight to lose the game, while attack can keep trying, alleviated by the fact that they're less close to the point. This isn't new.

Something like Dustbowl in TF2 has attack winning more than defense when the teams are competent too. That doesn't excuse awful map design.

D.Va just needs to soak up the projectiles, and let allies trough, and lift some pressure from the ally tanks. Fuck, even a mei can just drop an icewall and create cover out of nothing. So the chokepoint itself loses meaning really fast with any coordination.

Why do you post about things you haven't played. This guy has more CC in his kit than the entirety of Overwatch's roster. Incidentally, Reinhardt's ultimate is his Q. Mei has Anivia's Wall, Ultimate and Lissandra' Ultimate. Reaper has Katarina's Ultimate. McCree has Graves' E (Yes, even the reload ammo part). Tornbjorn Heimerdinger's turret upgrade ult, the nigger Sona's W and E, Tracer Riven's Q and Ekko's Ult and Zilean's Q and so on. This game does absolutely nothing new of its' own.

Nigga McCree came out well before Graves' rework. Tracer pre-dates Ekko and Ekko's kit is entirely unoriginal in the first place. Actually many of the things you mentioned do not originate with League at all. Play other video games and watch some movies, goddamn you are uneducated.

I do not play games where I can be banned for racism. That is the equivalent of giving away $60 to someone who who militantly disagrees with you, or paying a $60 tax to support banhappy "no dissent allowed" faggots.

If the game allowed players to host their own servers, then Blizzard wouldn't need to be such a cheap jew with their CPU cycles and could have the tickrate be something normal like 120. You could also just make your own server where anything you want is allowed.
But it doesn't, so fuck it.

Now, TF2.
TF2? You can make your own servers.
TF2? You can set the tickrate to fucking 333 if you want.
TF2? Mouse acceleration is optional.
And I don't even play TF2 because it's bloated with bullshit cosmetics and there's no way to just click a "Cosmetics Off" button to cut your load times in half and get +10 framerate.

That and multipalyer FPS's like this either allow mods and have mad games like 'natural selection' and counterstrike grow out of them.
