When is /v/ ever right?
You guys always said "no this won't be a tf2 killer" "This is going to be casual" "Blizzard does terrible launches" "This game won't be successful" "Battleborn is going to be better"
Well look at us now /v/. 10 million strong. competitive play. flawless launch. successful beyond imagination. Battleborn in the dust.
So apologize.
S-s-sorry.
Enjoy while it lasts and before cosmetics ruin the game.
Remember TF2 ...
>>341957716
Cosmetics? They already have cosmetics. It's not going to ruin the game. We are getting more heroes, more maps, more game modes, and competitive play. Tf2 doesn't even have competitive play. Stop comparing overwatch to some lazy valve game they didn't pay much attention to.
It's good but I question how much longevity it has without mods or private servers.
>>341956939
>has literally 0 depth
People will get bored in less than 3 months.
They will keep pumping new maps and new heroes but eventually there will be more people quiting the game than playing it.
>>341958050
Look how long blizzard games last without mods and private servers. They know how to treat a community and build it. Just look at wow, starcraft, and hearthstone. They knew they had to put their A game and release something good that doesn't rely on crutches like mods and private servers.
>>341958249
Why is it always 3 months? Look how popular it is after a month. This isn't even counting all the days in beta.
>>341956939
It'd be perfect if not for the play of the game shit.
Teams literally cannot grasp the concept of defending the point because everyone is too busy trying to get play of the fucking game.

Stopped reading there. Go to Overwatch general and tell me that with a straight face.
>>341957950
What I'm missing right now is choosing your playmode. I'm tired to rely on the automatchmaking without a chance to select what you wanna play. Also we need more maps, but I guess those are coming in time

It's a mediocre game at best, can be a good time killer with friends but will never be a solid competitive shooter. Everything Blizzard makes is popular and get's shoehorned into e-sports, that doesn't mean it's good. We learned this from Hearthstone and HOTS.

Even if I took a timestamp of my copy of the game, you would probably find an excuse to say I'm not allowed to criticize it. It happens every time.
Friendly reminder that /v/ is never right.
>>341959641
criticism is fine, but if you're going to say shit like
>the game isn't gonna last more than 3 months
you're gonna need something to prove that the trend is decreasing fast enough to the point that it will be a blip on the map in 3 months.
This game will be going strong until blizzard does something to fuck it up.
>>341956939
>>341959441
>Oh yes, because I don't want video game discussion in my video games.
Which is why /owg/ is perfect for /vg/ - no one ever talks about Overwatch as a game in the first place, they're all just talking about their waifus.
>this is going to be casual
but that is correct. Not only that but if they added a TDM Playlist it would be 3 times more popular than anything else because of how incompetent and casual the fanbase is.
so we agree that Koreans are the true master race right

He's all around good.
Decent heal, sprint is nice, gun has good range and headshots deal a lot of damage. Right click can be hard to use but is great for close encounters or slow targets.
Q is all around fantastic, especially with a Reinhardt protecting him (not that you'll usually need it, people tend to run in terror when he activates).
He's a great choice for pretty much an situation.
>>341959804
but isn't that why everyone wanted it to kill TF2? Because "gameplay was never discussed and people only talked about hats and waifus"?
Overwatch didn't kill TF2. It BECAME Tf2.

Overwatch is so diverse with its trans gender heroes. The guy with the pink hair and the other guy who now calls himself Mercy are looking like generic puppets, but this doesn't matter.

Because I'd prefer not to have multiple DRM clients on my computer.

Just imagine all the different launchers you'll have. 2K Games, EA, Ubisoft, Blizzard, Bethesda, Devolver Digital, Activision, Capcom, Konami (if they ever come back), Telltale... the list goes on. And most of these already DO have their own launchers.

>>341957716
the items in TF2 are NOT cosmetic, they change gameplay. Cosmetics strictly affect only looks, nothing else.
>>341963173
No, a charged widow shot used to one-shot a Zenyatta. Nobody has any fire that deals 100 damage in one shot and can be used reliably.
>>341963223
Which has probably the wackiest range of any move in the game, and if hit at anything outside of it's sweetspot of distance will deal minimal damage.

Uh, yes they are? Only the weapons change gameplay, and you can get those for free on the store.
>>341960491
It is what it is. Just shoot at the ground to get lift off. It's pretty much what pharah does except she's got more air mobility without doing damage to herself. Rocket jumping is such a gimmick in tf2 whereas it's a technical skill in over watch. Junkrat is able to do the same to get higher and it's just as easy. Who would risk taking damage in a competitive match just to get in the air where you are a sitting duck? Explain to me how rocket jumping is at all skillful.
>>341956939
>expecting /v/ to ever be right

reinhardt charge deals 350 damage if pinned, roadhot hook into fire can one shot zenyatta and it's so braindead easy to do

It's something that he knows how to do because he's been playing TF2 for over a decade.

TF2 is still at 50K daily. Meanwhile OverMeme is dropping like a rock. You know what else had 10 million players? The Division.
>>341957716
The reason cosmetics ruined TF2 was because of how they were obtained and the fact that they could be traded and sold. It then became nothing but groups of retards idling for hat drops to sell to each other.
Add in the bullshit, completely imbalanced loadout items that were gotten and traded all the same and you were left with a game that, when people WERE actually playing, rewarded paying money or wasting time, and otherwise was nothing but people wasting time.
Overwatch actually won't let you idle to gain XP for loot boxes and even if it did, you can't trade or sell items so there wouldn't be a point. It also doesn't have any items that affect gameplay or break balance beyond what the characters already can do.
>>341964332
AAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>341964130
>Reindhart charge
That move is suicide in 90% of situations. That's why it deals so much damage, also you're likely to miss most heroes with it.
Hook into primary fire isn't one shot, it's half of Roadhog's abilities, and it requires you to reliably hit the hook
>Can one shot Zenyatta
Wow, so one of the heaviest damage dealing combos in the game can only reliably one-shot the squishiest character in the cast. Wow, it must be really hard getting across corners with such powerful one-shot moves
>Orb of Discord is a one-shot
This is so stupid. There are no moves that effectively act as a one-shot (outside of a charged Widow headshot). Zenyatta doesn't have much health, but he makes up for it by having DPS out the ass. Thanks for learning a little bit about Overwatch, try giving it a play next time.
>>341964332
Where's TF2?
>>341964521
TF2 isn't meant to be an esport that competes with League and Dota. OverMeme is.

Biggest problem is Overwatch is fucking boring to watch. And Blizzard is as always incompetent with balance, so you get very samey teams. Being able to choose multiple of the same character may have been a mistake.

That's how i feel about all games.
I'm pretty tired of the game already.
Somehow the game feels stale as hell, everything is the same everytime...and I've played tons of games like this for hours upon hours.
The honeymoon phase is crumbling for most of the people I know as well. If they don't crank out interesting content (lel skins won't do shit) pretty soon it'll deteriorate on next remotely interesting game release.
>>341964824
And that's exactly why it will never have a serious e-sports scene. The game lacks any complexity and depth. Same reason why nobody is playing or watching HoTs - much better alternative already exist.

>>341964959
I can get impressed by a really good play in dota, or in Tekken or any of those types of competitive games, but not so much in Overwatch. There's nothing for me to sink my teeth into as a viewer. It's like the difference between watching a football game, and a game of bowling.
>>341964776

The fact that you damage yourself to get a better shooting position and kill someone, or a few of them, or maybe escape from an impossible situation and than kill them is what makes it skillful. If you take the damage done to yourself out of the equation there is no skill involved because the skill is to be so good that you can balance hurting yourself to get a kill on your opponent.
If it were easy than everyone would do it effectively, that's why in Overwatch you have the pharah version, so everyone can do it, since Blizz knows their audience and they know them well. The hardest game they made was 3 vikings

youre supporting a company who at one point wanted to boost sales by making a cosmetic ,which is only feasibly obtainable through cash, an actual advantage in gameplay. they retracted this because they knew it would backfire, although they wish they could leave it in game and have nobody care
>>341966010
A copy sold is a copy sold, nothing more, nothing less. You can't resell PC copies and used games are not as big as you'd think for multiplayer games on consoles.
Meanwhile "players" could mean anything. It could mean "played the game at any point in time", or it could mean "actively played the game recently". Companies would like you to believe the latter so they can overinflate their game's success.
>>341966082
And yet you haven't provided a single argument why that would be a bad ruleset. Only a completely inane analogy. Nobody cares about competitive games that don't require planning and commitment in pre-game phases, but I guess you'll find that out pretty soon.

They say million players because there are places in which the game is free to play like in Korea.
And given the statistics I would say at least 3 million players are from worst Korea alone.
Give it a few months . Blizzard hasn't had enough time too completely fuck it up yet . I have zero trust in this company anymore.
>>341966214
>7 million in a week
>only 3 million more in a month
JUST KEK MY SHIT UP
>>341966521
Better than supporting a company that wanted to push paid mods 5 years before Valve tried to.
>>341956939
It didn't kill tf2.
How do you kill whats already dead?
>>341956939
The game is already dying. It's flavour of the month, Blizzard isn't putting any content in it and is a lazy as fuck company. They've just been riding on the wave of cash from wow. The entire company only releases to keep it's stock floating, not to actually make games. When that happens you have to pray the company dies so innovation can actually occur.
Also Battleborn was always going to be shit, the game might aswell still be in alpha. Gearbox are just as bad as Blizzard, funding their shit ideas with borderlands money but only producing stale as fuck ideas.
>>341966453
>black guy loves Genji
So unsurprising
>>341966214
So it sold 10 million across 3 platforms? In other words it sold less than the yearly CoD installment. Amazing.
>>341966486
No, there are many different kinds of people on /v/ that each have their own unique opinions on things, but because this is an anonymous forum, your retarded ass thinks every person that hates a game is part of the same group that must hate every game, because it's impossible for someone to dislike something without being a big dumb doodoo head- Maybe one day you'll grow up and stop taking people's opinions on games as personal attacks towards you.
>>341966535
Starcraft? I guess in choosing your main, but that's pretty much set by practice. I mean, maybe you think nobody cares about it, but people still tend to regard skill in it, as the height of competitive gaming achievement.
>>341963467
it can all be done on ps4 but you'd probably have to switch Lucio's jump button with L2. You might be able to pull it off with a claw
>>341964824
Blizz isn't incompetent at balance, they make games which are impossible to balance because they know nobody wants them, they all want to steamroll. So you have patches in which chars take turns in steamrolling.
People who buy Blizz games must be objectively the dumbest alive.
>>341966814
I didn't realize you were one of those CoD guys. Yeah, your game sells better than everything else. I concede. Kids love that shit.
>>341965614
delete this
>>341966814
They never said 10 million sold though.
>>341966816
Hello, newfag.
>>341966521
>free drop

wat
>>341963882
You're committing to your rocket jump by using one of your 4 rockets to it and some of your hp to gain an advantageous position on the map compared to other classes. With Pharah you don't have to commit to flying at all, just press the jump pack button and you're good.
Assessing the situation for a good rocket jump takes a lot of skill so you don't get fucked by not having full ammo or not having full hp.
>>341958416
The hype is already dying down
>>341966779
Glad I'm not the only person who sees it.
Blizzard as a company moves at a snails pace for even the smallest bit of new content (look at WoW if you don't believe me) they are also arrogant as fuck and refuse to acknowledge when they make mistakes .
The company made good games at one point yes. But those days are long gone. All they care about now is what is the bare minimum of effort they can put in and still make $$$.

Overshitters never cease to amuse me. The backpedal is real.
>>341967018
I haven't bought a CoD game since 2007 and still Overwatch is far from being a groundbreaking success. And that amount of players is certainly in no way an argument in favor of its longevity.
>>341967295
What do you mean by that?
>>341956939
It just dawned on me that this is a containment game for all the people I dislike.
>>341967398
He meant that I've watched all the people who were previously playing OW daily stop playing it daily and start bitching after they play it about issues (either perceived or objective).
>>341965614
Yeah fuck off. Junkrat can do it but doesn't need to. So can pharah but who would. Once you get to the point you're already down 90 percent of your health.
>>341967354
I played Hanzo only a few times and I still don't understand how that fucking attack works. I mean, it makes sense to fire it in an enclosed area like a hallway, but when out in the open and just get nailed by it is what boggles my mind. Is it basically like Roadhog's alt-fire and you have to get it just right or what?
>>341959732
Y-your just shitposting! Get the fuck out of here with that!
Easiest way to tell if something is flavor-of-the-month is if the fantards desperately try to convince you that it's not flavor-of-the-month.
Happened with MLP, Undertale, and now Memerwatch.
>>341967284
Pharah doesn't rocket jump, she flies, they took the concept of rocket jumping, twisted it and made it into its own class. She's supposed to be some aerial artillery, most of her time is spent gliding above the map and raining down missiles.
>>341967621
aim it at their feet from an obtuse angle, most times all shards go straight at the body
>>341967770
easiest way to tell if something is good is if /v/ contrarians call it FOTM and shit all over it.
>>341967472
>why would I want to cut my travel time in half in an objective based shooter
That's why they're called pocket medics son.
Also Junkrat is a fucking garbage character. You might as well just play Pharah unless you hate your team.
>>341967770
I don't know if you can really call MLP flavor of the month though. It lasted a good couple of years before the real freaks ran everyone semi-decent off the franchise.
>>341967372
I suppose we will see. Only the growth in people playing it, suggests longevity, but I suspect Overwatch will do only so much better than TF2 in terms of players over time. It has overtaken LoL in Korean cyber-cafes, though.
>>341967770
>Call everything what it is (MLP, Undertale)
>Memerwatch
That's not even that good of a name. I'd go for "Blowverwatch" or something.
>>341956939
>already losing players
>discussion already dying down
>replaced by ITS STILL ALIVE shitposting on /v/
Its already on the downward slope
>>341966535
>Nobody cares about competitive games that don't require planning
Having more hero options gives you more room to plan. And Overwatch is entirely based around hero switching. That's why you're retarded. It's like saying you should take the styles of out DMC. You're literally cutting out the core gameplay, you fucking imbecile.

Pic related it's you.
>>341967770
But Undertale is a single-player game of fixed length? How could it possibly be a hot-topic long-term? It's not like there's a e-sports element to it or anything.
>>341968021
This. Some enemy teams on certain maps require very specific counters. It's part of the game.
>>341968021
To give you an even better analogy. Your argument is like telling competetive Street Fighter players that they have to sign up with a main, an alt, and only play those two.
Kill yourself, you are hurting the human gene pool by being alive.
>>341968117
Overwatch as an e-sport is already dropping and didn't make the splash that Hearthstone did: >>341964758

In terms of Twitch viewers?

Wow who gives a shit?
>>341968229
I did right at the start but it's fucking Lucio, he got bumped a bit, grabbed another wall and kept going counter clockwise.
>>341956939
Blizzard games are like that. They come with a shiny exterior that maintain the illusion for a couple weeks. That's when you start to realize how shallow and badly they are designed. Once the honeymoon period is over, I expect OW to start bleeding players pretty damn fast. Like Diablo 3 in fact.
>>341967902
TF2 has been around for 9 years.
>>341960648
No shit, third-worlders literally live off hats. Same with CS:Garbage
>>341968436
Blizzard does.
>>341968074
>console
his opinion means nothing
Cleared an offensive push and held for the W with 1 minute left. Shot it to the exact middle and cleared the turrets that were assisting heavily.
Probably my top 3 favorite moments.
>>341968226
>e-sport
>>341967331
Exactly. They funnelled all the money out of wow when they could have just kept building upon it. The game should really have 5x more content than it currently does then they spend so much on Titan and shit the bed. Half these companies need to get their shit together.
>>341968651
Well good for them but no one else gives a shit if it becomes an esport or not.
>>341956939
Overwatch players so bored with the game that they'd rather shitpost on /v/.
Color me surprised. Nice 3 gamemodes and no maps.
>>341968545
>Blizzard games are like that
>couple of weeks
Yeah, remember how short lasting most Blizzard games are? Starcraft? Few weeks. WoW? Year tops. And Diablo? The fact that they made three of them doesn't mean anything, because it's clearly just temporary hype!
Idiots on /v/, I swear.
>>341958249
