No-one expected it to not succeed, Blizzard has way too much money and marketing for every game

It's the FPS equivalent of Hearthstone, it has zero depth and barely rewards skill, so it will do well with casual audiences for a pretty long time. The problem with it always was whether it would be a game that would be interesting for a longer time, and it's not.

Because the precedent team-based shooter, TF2, cost $20 as a standalone unit and eventually went free. And TF2 has nine years worth of polish compared to Overwatch, a game many people suspect was hastily pieced together from the corpse of Project Titan.

Overwatch is a fine game, but it's not anything special and not really worth the price tag.

Usually the older a game gets the less valuable it is. 9 years of polish mostly means 9 years of adding stupid shit to keep people playing their game. Overwatch won't go f2p for a while because it doesn't need to, people are willing to spend money to play it and keep kids and third worlders out.

Paid $30 for Doom and ran through the single player campaign twice in about 20 hours and felt like I got my money's worth. Paid $40 for Overwatch and I've played it for 90 hours so far. I actually went back and bought the founder's edition just for the exclusive skins because I like the game that much. I can tell it's going to completely replace TF2 for me and that I'm probably going to put in at least 2 hours everyday until at least 2020, unless something better comes along.

>>343407686

Overwatch is a well-made game the same way a Honda Civic is a well-made car. There's nothing wrong with it and it's a very good example of what it's looking to do, but it has no soul or personality. It's a game made by committee, including a character or play style for every demographic marketing could identify played team-based shooters. For the waifu squad there's a bunch of sexy girls. For the tumblr crew there's a fat and muscular chick. For the edgemaster brigade there's a cowboy and whatever you would call Reaper. For the russians there's Roadhog. For the dudebro Call of Duty army there's Soldier 76 and Bastion. Basically every character was designed by someone who very likely wears a suit and had a description of the sort of player this character is supposed to appeal to, which is especially evident when you start to look at the clunky sense of balance and toothless ability kits.

Compare this to TF2, which started as a mod made by a bunch of computer geeks and was developed again in much the same way. If Overwatch is the Honda Civic of video games TF2 is something like the DMC-12, with the latter being a peculiar but interesting and endearing work of personalized passion. Valve wasn't always obsessed with microtransactions or crate-key systems and TF2 shows this, which is why it feels so much better than Overwatch even now.

You clearly haven't played the game at a higher level or at all. It might look easy when watching game play, but there is a large skill gap between the top players and your average player.

>doubting the power of blizzard

Reminder that fucking heartstone is played COMPETITIVELY just because blizzard is throwing dosh at it.
>>
>>343408086
That's because it's blizzard and the marketing hype is always bigger than the game itself. Once people played the game they realized their preferred moba was better and went back to that.

But that does not apply to games like Hearthstone and Wow which have defined their genres and wont be surpassed for a long time. Overwatch appears to be thriving like Hearthstone did although it's too soon to tell.

McCree is literally a mercenary fighting for justice. He's not edgy in the fucking slightest.

>>343408161
No, there isn't. Nigger I've played competitive FPS games forever and played this one in Beta and retail with a fairly dedicated team a lot, but there just isn't much to it. The "depth" mostly comes from team composition, but the skill ceiling is extremely low and the way the game works means even bad plays get rewarded. The lack of scoreboard or the fact that hackers barely have an impact aren't telling you anything? It's not bad, just simple.

>$40+ for a multiplayer only, online only game of questionable quality and service
I only paid $20 of my own money for it, because that's how much it's worth. Blizzard may still get the full amount thanks to my friend but when their quality control allows multiple bugs to get through, despite having player testing and bug reporting beforehand, it matters less to me personally because I didn't invest full price into it.

You're right. But at the same time I think one of the cool things about tf2 were mods, custom maps, dedicated servers etc, all things that are not in overwatch nor are planned to be there.
Overwatch is a nice casual game, I've been enjoying it bu I can't really say if I'll be still be playing it in a few months.

And this is where your arguments falls apart

The only reason Overwatch is a better game than TF2 right now is because of how much Valve fucked up their original vision and turned it into this shambling corpse of what it used to be

Overwatch brought back that feeling I had when I played old TF2 for the first time, and that was enough for me to never want to go back

Yes. Gamers became complacent with peer to peer gaming during the PS3/360 era. Even in the Xbox LIVE era there were dedicated servers in some instances, until Halo 2 that is. Sony online though for PS2 was always P2P except those two MMOs

People who buy Blizzard games are the same people who buy MLP toys. We shouldn't treat them like well-adjusted high functioning members of society.

i've played about 30 comp games so far and literally never has there been any problem of getting healers. most of the time randoms roll the typical mercy/lucio/rein setup as well without anyone saying anything

probably you are just playing at shitter level, in which case you can carry as damage dealer as well if you just git gud
>>
>>343406093
actually, thinking about it, it isn't a surprise that this game is very successful for them. it's exactly like wow in the sense in that it takes objective based FPS, and then takes a whole bunch of ideas and mechanics from various games, they take their tons of $$$ and use it to give the game a very well executed art style and polish, and casualize it well enough such that even the biggest shitters can feel like they accomplish something.

not saying it's a bad game, but just like WoW, it isn't a masterpiece, it just is basically the only thing that is exactly like it out right now.

I don't like standing up for corporate entities, but the amount of people in this thread talking about how Overwatch has already "failed", and what will "save" it, is astounding.

Regardless of all the Asperger's getting in the way of your ability to realize that /v/'s always-terrible opinion is almost never reflected in the real world, the game is a resounding success so far. Just because it isn't free, and mommy can't pay for it with a Steam gift card, doesn't mean you should just make things up.

I'm only 21 hours in, have 500ish in TF2, and I can completely understand why you'd want to play both of these games. Anyone who says that it's a TF2 clone is a poorfag, cuck'd to their mommy's purse for games.

I think some ults need a slight buff.

The argument is not that whether or not it's a "hardcore gayme for hardcore gaymerz"..
>>343414515 points this out pretty nicely.

It's a pretty tangible fact that it's not a failure of a game, and it isn't showing signs of failing.

Nobody said it wouldn't sell..it's blizzard. I like the game but it isn't perfect by any means, soldier and mcree have a straight up aimbot for their ults. And the designs for almost every female is shitty with LE PUNK SKINS.

agreed on that point but it doesn't stop me from wrecking face without it.

>>343415542
if you'd actually read the thread instead of making shitposts you'd realize the first ten responses or so are already saying it didn't "fail"

you're arguing against imaginary /v/ posters
>>
>>343415421
in the beta it was better because the auto aim got headshots instead of body shots, but that was definitely a little overkill. I think its fine as is, you can still drop 4-5 people with it at any given time

This is a weird sentiment people seem to have regarding multiplayer games. They'll readily buy single player games which will give them a return of one hour of entertainment for every 2-4 dollars invested, but when it's a multiplayer game that people are already spending hundreds of hours on, it should be $20 dollars or free?

Not saying this is a bad thing, it's a good precedent for the consumer, but it is a strange way of thinking.

Blizzard designed Overwatch with the plan that even the shittiest of shitters can think they're good at it.

It's probably because single player games are (relatively) easy to pirate so the price tag doesn't matter much.

>>343412132
Because the game allows them by design, this game does not. Not sure why you mashed together LoL (which also doesn't allow connecting to any other servers except official), SimCity (which is online only just for the license check) and WoW (Which allows for different servers for bugtesting). WoW private servers also didn't pop up in the first 3 weeks and even today are not 100% stable.
>>
People compare this to league, I wish it was as based as league was. Blizzard needs to step the fuck up on characters and skins soon, there's like 5 good skins the rest are trash.
>>
>>343409734
The hitboxes are pretty standard for hitscan, and pretty similar to Tf2's for projectile weapons, main different being that OW has more projectile weapons that can headshot so it's more noticeable.

As for the netcode, it's perfectly average, serviceable fps netcode, aside from the shitty tickrate, which makes a difference, but nowhere near the difference imagined by /v/'s armchair networking experts.

Yeah. The difference is that TF2fags have been bitching about about hitboxes and the huntsman for years while Overfags deflect to a nearly decade old game and make excuses.

only people who can't play

this isn't an issue and the hanzo thing isn't an issue. hitboxes don't need to reflect the model. this is done for gameplay reasons

Does Blizzard have a method of banning children from playing the game? Otherwise I don't want to pay 40 bucks for it.

Children ruined TF2 and Counterstrike, and I got the former for free. Why would I sink money into a game just so I can watch some retards show off their legendary skins and zoom in on Widowmaker's ass the whole match?
