Did you ever get the feeling you only like Overwatch cause you're suppose to?
>>339665381
I play BattleBorn. It's ok.
>>339665381
No.
>>339665381
Had a moment in Hollywood as Widowmaker where I had gotten on a high building and I just looked down at everyone shooting at each other.
That was yesterday. Quit and haven't gone back. I dunno man.. I'm starting to get buyers remorse.. but maybe I'll come back to it and it'll change.
I only like the waifus, like majority of the fanbase.
I'm waiting a month, maybe two
If the game's not dead then I'll get it, if it dies down then I have no remorse
>>339666067
Same. It's like a more casual version of TF2, but with "pro" team sizes, worse maps, and just less fun. And it's not ever competitive either, so really it just has kinda sucked for me. I feel like I was memed on by blizzards marketing pretty damned hard.
I'm already getting kind of burnt out. Might be due to the small amount of maps right now.
If you think this you're a loser with no friends to dominate online with pussy
I've been jumping between it and Blood and Wine so I haven't gotten burned out yet
>>339665381
No I genuinely like it because it scratches in itch
It's a shooter so now I have one game of the genre that is actually enjoyable
I can play many rounds without it being 5 hours later
Playing online with friends is a fucking blast.
Constantly wanting to keep playing.

The only things I've felt were bullshit are Mcree's unavoidable, uncancellable insta-kill, and Junkrat spamming while he has a pocket Mercy buffing his damage.
>>339665381
I dislike it for that very reason. Buzzard marketing can blow me.
I also have great disdain for how badly they fucked up WoW.
>>339666701
This
If I wanted to have fun with friends there's cheaper options, I'd rather just play league or risk of rain or something (though my friends refuse to play league so that doesn't actually happen)
People say Borderlands is "fun with friends" but does that really make it good?
>>339666385
I had some decently high hopes for it outside of the marketing. It's a bit same as when I got FO4 and thought I knew what to expect.. and it's just so much worse.
But this time it's because of the people playing it. It's like I'm playing League all over again. Taking a second to watch the decisions other people make is really disheartening.
The quality game itself is pretty great, I think. But the quality of the people playing it is pretty horrible.
>>339666784
This, I'd rather give EA money than fucking actibliz
I didn't pay attention to any of the marketing, play the betas or follow the hype. Just decided to get it yesterday and have been having a lot of fun. Game just needs more maps/game modes, and it's only $40 on PC
>>339666701
>Almost everything is fun with friends.
No.

No I like it because I can form my own opinions about things. My opinions are not dictated my the anonymous unworthy trash that infects this pile of shit. If 4chan really does dictate how you think OP then you need to fucking kill yourself.

>>339666281
It's a blizzard game it's not going to die down. It's already as pervasive as crack cocaine.
I didn't buy it, didn't like my experience in beta. I liked TF2's larger team vs team and I feel like overwatch went broad instead of deep with the characters. Some characters are arlight but others have literally a single attack action, and that's all you can do and spam. Didn't like the really short matches with 30-60 second waittime to load and then another 60 seconds before it started. I'd rather have seen 3/4th the number of characters with more abilities to the ones that remained. Also miss dedicated servers. I want my crazy 16vs16 or even more, not rinky dink 6v6.
I'm glad people enjoy it (and we'll get lots of great porn of the characters) but it wasn't for me.

EA didn't ruin WoW
Played the shit out of the beta, and at the end realized the game is shallower than a kiddie pool, a low skill ceiling, and hardly any content.
It's fun for awhile, but not $40 fun.
>>339667406
Nah it's more casual. Skill ceiling is way lower, no private servers/browser so you're forced to use their shitty matchmaking, no ammo, maps are way chokier, and the pyro replacement (mei) somehow manages to be both worse and less skill intensive to play.
I mean seriously I'm able to do like 95% of the character specific things that require mechanical skill after under 10 hours when I was nowhere near close to having that level of mechanical mastery in tf2 after over 1000.
>>339665381

people who bought it here are:
10 to 20 years old
have no real good FPS experience
are relatively bad at videogames or mediocre
weebs who have a waifucomplex or just people who follow others
cant explain the """""fun"""" in articulate ways, which other FPS have done better
probably were roped in by the blizzard CGI advertising
and or don't play videogames that much (thus the low standards and able to accept the low skill ceiling or have it be unnoticed)
as well as ignore the 20 tick and implications of what crap chokepoint maps have and 6v6 implicates in the larger set of things
should've been 40 tick, 9v9, less rocketpack + more of an alternative way of movement, less "casual" elements to each "hero", and much better maps, and less pandering to shitters

Hey fuckboi:
In BF4, there are various vehicles:
boats
jets
choppers
anti air
tanks
and each gun has at least 2 attachments, and in which there are 4 "classes" too, which share a common pool of weapons
and don't forget gadgets, such as
MAV
c4
claymore
soflam
rocket launchers
etc
If that's the case, BF4 wins due to sheer statistical permutations.

So you're just particularly slow then? It's pretty common knowledge the skill ceiling is incredibly low, aside from the basic FPS factors. If you're still learning new things, it's because you're slow.

To be fair both are low. That doesnt mean the game isnt fun. It just lacks depth. it's the smash 4 of class based shooters
>>339669179
How did we go from ironic fat love to embracing fat love in 2 years? Dumb memes
I like it because I can play the sniper and only do bodyshots while still being highly effective and widowmaker has the fattest ass ever. I wanna crawl in it and die
>>339669979
oh, we're sorry, the skill ceiling is low
and the skill floor is incredibly high due to the games mechanics of giving "kills" when you barely hit someone as an "assist"
please tell me how wallhack/autoaim trait mechanics to a specific class (bar TF2's sentry which has an analogous counterpart here in Overwatch) has somehow improved the skill ceiling, and jetpacks being generic garbage and add no depth whatsoever, whereas carefully aimed rocker launches from Q2+/TFC/TF2 propelled where practice and estimation came in to play, either to ambush or surprise the enemy or give an element of advantage?
>>339670235
you mean the skill floor is high, the ceiling is low
aka, shallow, not much depth, aka lacks dynamic range
this is analogous in metaphor to the "loudness wars" of music, where its compressed, and there isnt much range of really quiet lows (maybe a soft baritone or drum) to the highest of highs (crash of cymbals/percussion to shrill distortion of guitars)
>>339670235
>Claim that skill ceiling are low
>Can't even be in pro scene
Why are shitters making up lies and force themselves to believe it to be true?
If the skill ceiling are as "low" as you claim.
Why don't u reach top player's standard within maximum a week of training??
So far, i only saw proofs of low skill floor, which everyone can pick up the game very very fast.
But i had yet saw any proof of low skill ceiling.
Perhaps you can be the first?

>>339670884
>ur
>etc
Like I said, you're confusing terms, and the game is SHALLOW.
Low skill ceiling. You can only be so good at a character, there is only so much to learn with one class. The maps are full of choke, its silly to think you can't just pull a cheese strat depending on a character (for each, I can easily cheese on point C of Hainan in BF4 with a PDW and completely decimate squads with a suppressor by going all solid snake, and many other stories etc).
The skill floor is absurdly high due to the damage output for each character can due, or possible traits that make it rock paper scissors (stunlocks, freezing, etc), rather than an even edge approach of aim and reflex over silly mechanics like most FPS games. Add in again what I mentioned, jetpacks, autoaim, tracking of enemies through walls, this game is a joke.
No dedicated servers and 6v6 with 20 tick puts you in dire straights of mercy depending on how the netcode will treat you and who you are playing with, rather than even the dogshit standard of 30Hz most games have (hell BF4 was 30Hz up until a year ago, now its 60Hz).
Shitters gonna shit and come up with the excuses somehow that this game has "depth" and is """"fun""" whilst again, unable to articulate what makes it fun besides the flashy colors, CGI characters, and general ease-to-use 2 weapon switch control design.
Does anybody else ever put things in their butt for fun?

You really shouldnt be this upset over low skill.

I suppose it can be a kick to your ego if you're trying to get good at a game and we tell you that your game is actually pretty shallow/ casual, so i can empathize, but

Unless I read correctly with how this game is (and only playing during beta), I know exactly what they are. Are they hosted by Blizzard? Then I got my information wrong from somewhere else. If not, and its p2p, then its not dedicated.
Still doesn't refute my points that this game is made for poopsticks.

>>339679604
More heroes leading to more matchups and team variety. It's not essential to have an engineer/medic on your team to be viable, for example. Room-clearing ults are common so the game doesn't revolve around ubercharge.
The problem is most people only pick one character, get bored, and leave.
>>339665381
I feared that I would find the game boring quite quickly and I bought the game because of my retarded friends who were very excited about playing the game.
The thing is that playing the game alone is boring but playing it with friends keep the thing fun. It's mindless fun, not heavily skill based game (even though the skill ceiling does exist and is not completely laughable). I'm still enjoying it so far, but it's pretty clear that I won't play it much more once my friends drop it.
>>339667005
Honestly we need to boycott these shitty publishers. Both of them.
The only reason they still exist is because kids cant resist a good advertisment. Overwatch is just another example.
Game is medicore at best and generally worse than tf2. The only thing thats better than tf2? The trailers. Suprise suprise.
>>339665381
I feel like the game was actually released at an unfinished state.
It's got the mechanics and inner workings of being a great game. It's very polished too. But it's severely lacking in any real content from a competitive or personal standpoint.
Balancing feels like a mess.
Matchmaking is a fucking mess.
Only 21 heroes, even less so, since some of them are almost always meta for team comps.
Only 10-12 maps.
Only 2 game modes, KOTH and escort.
Absolutely shit loot and leveling system.
No ranked.
No story or campaign mode when there's so much potential there.
No real rewards for winning games or leveling at the moment.
It feels like there was supposed to be another half of the game, but Blizzard cut it out and prolonged it to become future patch updates and DLC instead.
Not even

a bunch of times but not as much anymore
it's always so messy
>>339667406
>I don't think it's possible to get more casual than TF2.
Oh that's easy
Anyone who is into comp Tf2 and saw the video of clockwork explaining how overwatch doesn't appeal to people who enjoy fps mechanics and skill, knew the game was gonna be casual as fuck. Shane he still left tf2 to get dem over watch dollars
