Good, an Overwatch thread.
Now I can finally bring up the fact that Overwatch conceptually is a weird pastiche of Watchmen except the lesson is that society was wrong not to trust this patchwork of dangerous super powered vigilantes.
>>84155085
You mean a normal superhero universe?
What's with this weird /v/ crossposting I've been seeing lately?
It's not quite as annoying as /tv/ crossposting but it's still weird.
>>84155102
Ehhh most superhero teams exist outside of government purview and weren't shut down over ethical concerns.
Get Darwyn Nunez to draw the females.
>>84154089
>>84155058
>implying
>>84155085
Society wasn't really wrong. It's more that Mr. Jelly intentionally made the organization become untrustworthy to make it collapse.
>>84155152
It's the exact same scenario as the current MCU.

>>84155163

Are these comics written by the sane people? Because Bilzzard's in-house writing ranges from okay to awful.

Man they're really milking this, huh?
>>84153616
Is this about Pharah and the Egyptian army bravely facing off against the Omnic Brotherhood?
>>84156654
It's about her team trying to stop one of the AIs that caused the Omnic Crisis from getting back on the grid.
>>84156721
Also, it's a PMC (Helix), not the Egyptian Army.

My most-played hero is Soldier: 76 but Roadhog is close behind. The only hero I don't have any playtime with at all isTracer.
My head canon is that D.va is a total slut.
>>84156348
This is the correct answer. Mei comic when?
>>84153806
But all the Overwatch threads at /vg/ has the links to the official comics in all threads
Just wait and post the previews for the Prequel comic about the first strike team once it's out
Will any of these ever get a physical release?
>>84161017
I'm the piece of trash who mains, I literally only have playtime on Tracer, currently at close to 60 hours. Zero of everyone else.
I have had two separate dreams where I was playing someone else, Widowmaker in the first, then Winston in the second, immediately panicked once I realized what was going on and switched back to Tracer. Quite distraught over the fact my Hours Played were no longer pure.
I think I have a problem.
>>84161225
Oh, so you're that fucking asshole in seemingly all of my games who sees "No Support" under the team tips and picks Tracer.
If you're only going to play one hero, I don't think Overwatch is the game for you.
>>84156090
Currently Mei-ning Mei, but I'm a little okay with Tracer and Mercy. I just need to git gud honestly. I suck at games like these.
>>84161225
At least post your stats
>>84161266
I tend to monofocus on one thing in video games because I like being good at them, I plan to reach level 100 just playing her then move maybe start playing other people.
I rarely queue with randoms, usually with 4-6 friends who accept my bullshit and know what they're getting into, I don't inflict myself upon other people in Competitive, I'm not that much of an asshole.
>No Zenyatta comic
>No Zenyatta short

>>84158015
Seeing this image makes me seriously hope there's some genderswap skins for the men in the eventual future.
>>84161351
I have like a 53% winrate with her at least.
>>84161400
Probably not gonna happen
But I could see a mod or two popping up
>>84161594
>But I could see a mod or two popping up
The only recent Blizzard game with modding is SC2, and I guess WoW addons. Modding isn't something I see in Overwatch ever.
>>84161374
Feels bad, ominc
>>84161400
I'm still waiting on sexualized skins for the men.
>>84161656
Who knows maybe if people can submit stuff
Overwatch can become just liketf2

>>84163427
Yes. I just wanted to emphasize how shit tier it is./sm/ is superior.
>>84156090
Junkrat. He's just so damn fun
>>84163392
I would be so hype for this.
TINY TANK.
We're probably getting Sombra and Pharah's mom first though. They might even be the same person.
>>84163415
Eh, I'm not too picky - shotas go with everyone!
>>84163465
Pretty sure they are, since almost every promotional image had Pharah's mom as the sniper of the original team, and Sombra is implied to be a new sniper class.
>>84161374
Why be a robo buddah when you can be a robo god?I really wish his eyes glowed during iris...
>>84156090
I'm a Winston man myself, and when the team needs a healer, I go with my nigga Zenyatta.

How will this guy even work? It seems weird having a completely melee hero with limited range. Even Reinhardt has his one ranged attack.

There are like 4 already.
>>84156090
i maineveryone but reaper and tracer
my most played is Reinhardt and Lucio because I'm one of those faggots who likes a team to have a tank and healer, but when im damage i swap basically once every 2-3 deaths.
My favorite Comic was the Reinhardt one though, because it wasn't a massive battle between a team and a god, or a man and a city sized mech, it was just a guy, making life a bit less shit for some random civilians.
>>84164071
I love Reinhardt because he's a modern day Don Quixote. He sees adventure every where he goes.
>>84153616
Everything is free on the fucking website, you trog.
>>84163355
>implying that's going to end anything
I guess you're new to fandoms.
>>84156090
I switch it up a lot and force myself to play heroes I'm not good with.
Favorites right now are probably D.Va, Lucio and Reinhardt - I like mobility in my heroes and prefer ones that can take a few hits over the super squishy ones like Tracer.
I sure hope they shoe-horn more Muslim characters in to the game!
Prove to us how peaceful and nice they are so that we accept them into our countries and can finally become the global caliphate of peace.
Yay beheading!
>>84164195
No character is confirmed muslim. And it's the future so radical muslims must've been disposed of already.
>>84164195
Eh, none of the characters show any religious influence and I can't see Blizzard wanting to step on that hornet's nest.
>>84153806
Remember that your gun goes to /k/.
>>84164213
>>84164224
Read Pharah's comic, the "lesson" of it is a quote from the quran.
Her ult call out is the quranic ideal of Justice Reigns From Heaven
>>84164239
So what you're saying is Blizzard has fetishized Islam
Par for the course then
>>84164250
Nigga' that you don't even drop high quality bait.
>>84163991
>>84163994
I will keep telling pedophiles to kill themselves until they finally do it. 4chan- no- the world at large deserve to be free of people like you.
>>84161266
i'd rather have a competent tracer than a support who's not up to the job. feck it, i'll switch.
>>84164390
You telling me to kill myself sure helped! My fetish is now completely gone! Thanks, anon!
Oh wait no, I'm gonna go fap to crossdressing boys getting fucked by muscular dickgirls now.
>>84164390
So should we call you pedofag
Cause your sounding an awful lot like barneyfag
>>84163767
dashes or homing lunges for gap closer and stuns upon landing.
>>84163688
I don't think Sombra has been implied to be a support sniper class. We've just seen a blurry image of a sniper-looking character in the support section of the character roster. Whether this is Sombra is up in the air. It doesn't make a huge amount of sense for her to be associated with Dorado, and the image of Sombra doesn't appear to have a colour palette or outline quite like that of the unknown support sniper.
Of course, that could have been an old design.
Either way, I'm pretty sure the sniper is Ana. There's a weapon that looks like the hero's sniper rifle in the museum where the first cinematic took place. Considering that it's all Overwatch artifacts, and Ana was the sniper of the team, the connection seems certain at this point.
>>84165205
It'd be pretty cool if she was a support class, having shots that heal allies and stun enemies for a few moments.
>>84163694
>you actually got his Transcendence intro to render correctly
Son of a bitch, how? Every time I get this:
reminder that Omnic rights is a sick joke and humanity must always be vigilante and report any free thinking robots to their local authroities
>>84163392
It's never happening. Even M-Rated games shy away from letting you kill kids.
Also, he's fucking annoying.
>>84165402
I don't see the problem about a woman owning a dildo.
>>84153806
The gun is a souvenir.
>>84165205
>Considering that it's all Overwatch artifacts
I thought Doomfist wasn't Overwatch and the NEW Doomfist sure as fuck isn't.
>>>/vg/
Fuck off with this cancer. It's bad enough you faggots can't stick to one thread on /v/, don't start shitting up /co/.
>>84165545
First Doomfist was apparently a good guy. There could be two gauntlets and we get Badfist and Goodfist.
Alternatively, I could see the gauntlet being used for an eventual capture the flag map. Given that the flag would have to disable the abilities of any hero holding it in order for proper balance to work, they could have the gauntlet give you a different set.
>>84155058
GENETICALLY ENGINEERED ON ZE SUBGENETIC LEVEL TO BE ZE BEST WAIFU.
>>84165568
no tears
>>84165586
There have been at least 3 Doomfists over the years in Overwatch. Winston kicked ones ass, another led a revolution, and we don't know what the third one did.
>>84164239
Holy shit, Pharah fucking ruined. Into the trash she goes. Fucking scums
The roadhog and junkrat one was pretty good.
>>84165717
>Dumping Pharah
>Not fucking her so hard she converts to Christianity
Plebians should just stick to Mei.
>>84155058
She's built like a brick fucking house too. Dem hips
>>84165760
Whoa anon, don't lump us Meifags in with those guys
>>84165782
Too bad she's legally dead.
>>84164239
>Read Pharah's comic, the "lesson" of it is a quote from the quran.
Really?
>>84156090
I dunno, but I played a whole lot more D.Va during quickplay before the season started.
>>84165807
Like nanomachines?
>>84165870
Its somewhat implied that the technology that resurrects the heroes is also the same technology keeping her alive.
>>84165807
like death has stopped me before
>>84165892
Implied where?
The only implications is that she's not really aging anymore.
>>84165926
One of her animations involves her checking her pulse and shaking her head no, as if she doesn't feel one.
I dunno, there's a lot of sinister stuff that surrounds Mercy.
>>84165962
Could you show it to me?
>>84164239
That doesn't make any sense
Her face is exposed
She has the eye of Horus on her face, that shit would be completely fucking heretical to religion
>>84165402
C L A N K E D
>>84165849
I don't know why Islam is so shocking in western culture, the Founding Fathers of the United States out Mohammed on the side of the capitol building as one of the great lawmakers of history.
Plus if you've ever played Civilization you've built at least one Muslim wonder of the world every game.
>>84165962
plus her Legendary skins are demons.
>>84165989
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCqMryUmqhA
At 40 seconds in.
Its nothing, just a taunt.
>>84165995
Not all muslim women are forced to conceal their faces.
And the tattoo she has because of her mother. She said so herself in the comic.
>>84165995
Well, to be honest, knowing the quran does not mean you're Muslim.
I know a ton of the quran and I'm not religious in the slightest.
That said, keep in mind that this is the future, and even today, Egypt has a higher number of highly secularized Muslims than most predominantly Islamic nations. For all we know she could be more Haqqislam than anything else.
>>84166038
Oh that one. Like "Eh, guess you're dead!"
>>84166038
Seems more like she's being sarcastic. Like "I'd check your pulse, but why bother?"
>>84166035
And she might have made Reaper what he is today.
>>84166091
>>84166069
Gameplay thing. Storywise Mercy seems to be a person that wouldn't be sarcastic humor.
>>84166038
>>84166069
>>84166091
Mercy really swings around with her pacifist thing.
One minute she's talking about the Hippocratic oath and lamenting that the solution to Overwatch's problems is so often violence, and then the next she's shooting people and cracking death jokes.
>>84153616
A proper ongoing for this would be great.
It seems a shame to waste all this worldbuilding and character work on a capture the point game. I want to see more chill green cyborg ninja dude and Winston (he's like Beast if Beast hadn't become total shit).
>>84166135
To be fair she only had a pistol and most likely uses it for self-defense.
>>84166180
I want to see more of Genji toogiving Mercy the DRAGON DICK
>>84165995
Egyptians have never been a solid part of Islam.
Although the Muslim culture completely replaced their original polytheistic death-obsessed one after Rome skullfucked their military then their politics before fucking off and dying, Egypt was always unwilling to join any larger Arab empire or movement. Hell, in the Crusades Egypt played both sides and made a tidy profit until Saladin forced them to choose between their Arab "kin" and Christian gold; Egypt chose Christian gold, and Saladin skullfucked them for it, forcing them to stay Arab loyal until after his death when they went neutral again. When the colonization of Africa was underway, Egypt was totally for it. Egypt also resisted the Nazis secretly and after the Bruts started winning openly, strongly resisted the Soviets, and didn't go for the Muslim far right lunacy that was caused by the proxy wars between the Soviets and US and rages to this day.
Egyptians Muslims are considered non-Arab non-Muslims in most other Arab countries as a result of their history and as a result Egypt has less respect for the Middle East than Israel does (which is why Egypt is generally speaking a non-vocal supporter of Israel despite being a predominantly Muslim country).
Finally, the main point of that rant; Egyptians identify more with symbols of ancient Egypt than any Arabic or Islamic symbol, because the polytheistic Egyptian heretical faith is still 100% a symbol of Egypt and thus the most patriotic symbology possible.
Sure, Egyptians don't believe in the snek goddess who does the paperwork for the other gods and commands the divine police to protect man. But the Eye of Wadjet symbolizes Egyptian culture and history as much as Britannia and Uncle Sam does for their cultures.
>>84166252
Also, Egyptians speak their own form of Arabic that is about as different from "Standard" Modern Arabic as is English from Dutch or Russian from Polish.
>>84166298
That's canon to me now. What other woman helps making someone a cyborg and then gives the guy an ass like that.

>In the future, you can be cucked by robots

Trying to get good with everyone else so I don't have to autolock shit I'm good with in Competitive.
Also fuck Competitive. Four of my games had people leave in the first minute so we lost. Gave us a message saying we could leave with no penalty but still get the loss. What the fuck? Now I'm like 47 and pissed.
>>84166367
Cucking is when another dude shags your wife.
That's robosexuality. She was never into humans to begin with.
Not that Omnic's fault you can't get a robot wife.

Widowmaker ( the random hero brawl week literally made me play Widowmaker at least once a match )
Bastion

>>84166463
>implying robots have a gender
Just turn their pitch higher, its not like we fuck them for reproduction.
>>84166470
You avoid the leavers penalty, which is longer and longer timeouts from playing until finally it just bans you outright from playing Competitive for the rest of the season. That's what disconnecters have to look forward to, but you still take the loss for bailing out after it says you may leave safely. Might as well stay in and roll up whatever XP is available.
>>84166463
>yfw Omnics have no gender identity, so they have no problem swapping out parts and chassis to appear/sound more masculine or feminine in order to make themselves more appealing to whomever they're attracted to
>>84166505
Well fake tits and a tenga downunder would be nice.
>>84166506
It's bullshit but I don't see any other way around it. No point in filling the slot to screw someone else over and its not fair to make one of the enemy team sit out.
Just salty. I'll get over it.
>>84166525
>Honey you coming to bed?
>Yeah just give me a minute to microwave your vagina
Hehehe.
>>84156090
Only the best
>>84166526
I've had much fewer games with people leaving in live than there were in PTR, where over half the games involved people giving up and bailing out. Eventually habitual leavers won't be able to join games any more and we'll just have to deal with the occasional unintentional network error disconnections.
>>84166525
I wouldn't even need it to be sexual. Just so long as it's capable of loving me and will hold while we sleep/go into stand by mode.
Th-that's all. I just want to be loved.
>>84166581
One of the leavers was so fucking bad. As soon as we got in to the spawn room his over the mic coursing out a dude who picked Lucio when we had a Mercy and as Lucio was changing heroes he all chats "GG teams retarded" and leaves.
I assume his last game was the straw or something.
just thought I'd let you guys know, shills keep 5-10 overwatch threads up on /v/ at all times, pushing real threads off of page 10
don't let that happen here? /v/ was unusable for weeks and its still unpleasant for actual discussion

Don't bring your vitriol to /co/. We have a hard enough time keeping the brand wars to a minimum. We don't need /v/s bullshit.
>>84166641
>McCree (only post nerf)
Did Blizzard finally nerfed that character?
>>84157410
I really am torn about Overwatch's setting. One one hand Omnics are trash and need to be removed for the future of humanity.
On the other hand Zenyatta seems like a pretty chill bro and I don't wish him harm at all.
>>84166669
They reduced the damage his fan does but all it means is Roadhog doesn't get instant killed any more.
>>84166665
sure /v is 90% garbage, overwatch shills increased that ratio to 99%
the presence of advertisers on /v/ is so transparent that your incredulous and emotional reaction partially confirms to me that this is also a shill thread

>b-but it's a comic
Doesn't matter. After the Pacific Rim spamming. mods clarified that if the franchise didn't start as a comic or a cartoon it's not /co/.
The Overwatch Graphic Novel is supposed to be coming out really soon.
My guess is that they'll announce Sombra around the same time since this will flesh out Pharah's mom more.
>>84166736
Go scream at the sonic babies then. Sonic didn't start as a comic or cartoon.
>>84166252
If what you're saying is true, that makes me very happy.
>>84166736
That not true, they just said you can't just post the comic and star talking about anything that is not the comic. They should still go to /v/ since they are talking about the game at this point but the original premise for the thread is okay.
>>84166760
Finally, we'll see how edgy Gabriel was before he became Reaper.
>>84166760
God I can't wait. If only just to see Reaper become an edgelord. I can already see the panel where 76 is banging on his bathroom door as his cries are muffled by the loud Panic at the Disco playing on the other side, Reaper putting on the mascara and yelling "Call me REAPER now!"
>>84166679
Overwatch is if humanity stopped both Planet Of The Apes, Day After Tomorrow, The Matrix/Terminator, and World War 3 but still couldn't stop domestic terrorism, gang crime, dumbfuck politicians, corporate greed, and third world warlords.
I'll take the mailman T-800 and my son's classmate being a gorilla if it means the only perils of the future are SSDD.
>>84166728
>>84166685
Gee.At least we have High Noon.
>>84166814
Actually no one has addressed the moon gorillas yet. I get a chuckle every time I imagine a kid learning about it in history and when they move to the next topic he just raises his hand and is like "Is no one going to do anything about it? Do we just give it to them?"
>>84166760
Sombra is gonna be Reaper kidnapped Pharahs mom and brainwashed her to make himself a waifu since he was pissed he got cucked by Soldier isn't she?
>>84166814
Don't forget that an ape war is still happening on the moon.
>>84166698
>report these threads once they exceed ONE (1) thread, and explain in detail what you think about advertisers removing comics discussio
This isn't a garbage board like /v/, we do that no matter the subject.
>>84166239

Objectively superior Genji ship.
>>84166760
If they don't give us a young Ana skin ala Young Genji/Hanzo I will flip my shit
>>84166837
What if Gabe is Pharah's dad?
>>84166850
>Zarya sees herself as a petite schoolgirl
kek
>>84166867
If it's anyone on the team it's Jack, since we know they fucked
>>84166791
I'm pretty interested in that too. Reaper's hilarious, but it'll be interesting to see how he was before
>>84166794
CRAWLING IN MY SKIN
>>84166837
That'd kind of be redundant since Widowmaker is a brainwashed waifu too. Plus if Sombra is a sniper, that's even worse.
I've got my fingers crossed for some kind of nega-Lucio. AOE debuffing or something would be really cool. Just a girl who sucks the life out of everyone.
>>84166850
>Zarya
>Superior to Mercy
Good one.
>>84166836
Winston probably told everyone that its not worth it.
>>84166867
There's actually a theory floating around about 76 being Pharah's dad.
>>84166888
yeah but Widowmaker is brainwashed for a mission, Sombra would be brainwashed because Reaper is a petty little shit.
>>84166884
Ah, where was that mentioned?
>>84166912
Reaper is also not a member of Talon. He's just hired by them.

But in game they have shown Pharah's mother's call sign and while I don't remember what it was exactly I know it wasn't Sombra. That name seems very Mexican/Latin or Spanish compared to Pharah and her mom being Egyptian.
>>84166977
Reinhardt is the perfect husbando
>>84163767
Ultimate is that AoE pulse. Has X range, pushes heroes back as it expands and does a knockdown/stun like Reinhardt's. Basically combine Roadhog and Reinhardt's ultimate but make it an AoE.
>>84166992
Right now Blizzard is keeping both characters vague enough to where they could end up being the same one.
Are the comics going to be an ongoing or are we just going to continue getting more one-shots?
>>84166760
The next hero is being introduced through the animated short. I hope Junkrat and Roadhog are the antagonists. I want more robo-racism.
>>84164213
>>84164213
I think he is trying to compare the human/omnic relations to current day Europe and Muslims.
>>84167056
I think they want to do a one shot for each hero but will be releasing a graphic novel that will be an actual story featuring all of the characters.
I am super pumped for Roadhog Junkrat shenanigans.
>>84166618
but double healer is the meta
>>84166992
Sombra means "shadow" in spanish, so yeah, I don't know how that would be her name.
>>84167081
Well they might as well don't bother making one-shots for the characters that got shorts.
>>84165314
I think it would be something like giving heroes aim assist or creating cover for them. I don't think she will be a support like Zen, Mercy, or Lucio but more like Symmetra.
>>84167099
I've only seen it work with Lucio and Symmetra but she is barely a support as it is. Makes sense though cause a single healer (Zenyatta/Mercy) can easily get flustered if an enemy team knows what they are doing.
>>84167081
>Roadhog isn't even guarding Junkrat for his "treasure"
>He protects him so he can somewhat make up for being the guy that made him what he is by setting off that nuke.
>>84166992
>>84167104
As has been said, it's just a possibility.
We don't know that Sombra and the support sniper are the same hero. We just know that they exist, and we have a lot of reasons to believe that the support sniper is Pharahmom.
It could be funny if it's Liao instead though.
>>84167010
That he is, anon. That he is.
>>84167104
Theory is she got brainwashed by Reaper. Every chance he gave her that name.
>>84167142
>Once everything is settled they can go on roadtrips in the outback and drink beer while watching Mad Max
It's the closest form a friendship us Australians have.
>>84166895
She belongs with Jack.
>>84166884
Wait, we do?
Sombra is for sure a woman and is referred to by Reaper as such.
Since the only other woman in the lore that we know of is Pharah's mom and since the writers are hinting pretty hard that there's "clues" to uncover as to her identity, it's pretty easy to put two and two together.
>>84165466
In Numbani they have a Doomfist display showing 3 different Doomfists. The first 2 are clearly visible but the 3rd one you only have a vague shadowy figure and a detailed version of his gauntlet. The strange thing is that the first 2 have normal names but the 3rd has his name written in the omnic language.
>>84167163
Anon, Ana is his one and only waifu. He will never love again.
>>84166992
It's weird. Pharah has two Native American skins but she's Egyptian. It leads me to believe that they changed her race when they filled the North American quota with 76 and Reaper. Maybe the same kind of changes happened with her mom.
>>84167162
Sounds reasonable.
>>84167148
I'd be extremely disappointed if it's another sniper, though. I just wantSOMETHING TO FUCKING COUNTER GENJI, but maybe they have an interesting design/gameplay mechanic.
>>84165716
The 3rd is called either the successor or the scourge. His name is written in the omnic language so he might be an omnic or some sort of hybrid of human and omnic.
>>84167201
To be fair she has one Native American skin that has two colors.
>>84167201
Reaper is mexican, though, isn't he?
>>84167185
>Ana is Sombra
>Ana has been an edgelord all the time and fucked Gabe behind Morrison's back all the time
How much outrage?
>>84167203
Genji can be countered by good play. He's not overpowered in the least. Out of all the striker characters, he probably requires the most patience and skill.
Just don't shoot him when he's deflecting, for fucks' sake.
>>84167267
>Just don't shoot him when he's deflecting, for fucks' sake.
>Bad Bastion unloads on a deflecting Genji
>All bullets hit me
>>84167255
He's from LA bruh.
Clearly there's some Hispanic in him, but he's American. American enough to get into the Overwatch equivalent of the Super Soldier Project.
>>84167162
>>84166992
Personally I like the idea she went rogue and was the second mole in the organization, but that's not as well known if at all. People she died like Jack as a hero in the explosion, when she was really the one who kidnapped Amelie, turned her into Widowmaker, and trained her as a sniper. Would explain how the random wife of a french badass became the world's greatest assassin. Hell, if she really got blown to shit in the explosion, it would explain how in the limited art we have she looks so robot like. Probably got the full Genji treatmentand shedding a dimmer light on Mercy who also saved Reaper
Hell, given her disappointment evident in Pharah, she may have been looking for someone to carry on her 'legacy.' Own birth daughter is bust, why not just make someone you can control and be proud of. She was a sniper too, so it would make sense for her to be blackwatch with their assassination missions.
>>84167255
Mexico is considered North American for some reason. South of Mexico, north of Brazil is Central America.
>>84165892
She uses the tech to stop aging. Mei comments that Mercy looks the same as she did before she (Mei) was frozen years ago.
The only ones who got fucked over by Mercy's healing were Reaper. Whatever super soldier serum he was on didn't mix well with Mercy's tech and now he consumes life force from people to stay alive. Mercy is also the one who fixed up Genji and Junkrat too.
>>84167267
Thing is, his shift is complete horseshit since it ignores SO MANY things meant to counter mobility.
It fucking kills bear traps by just passing through them. How is that even kind of ok?
>>84166850
it would be funnier the other way around
>>84167267
He can be countered by anyone that shoots something besides bullets.
So like half the cast
>>84167332
I just play the Hot Monkey Dick and tickle him to death. It's not like he can do anything but run and even then, he ain't getting away.
>>84167326
>Fixes up Geni
>Badass cyborg overhaul
>Fixes Junkrat
>Here have a peg leg and some spare arm I pulled out of Zenyatta's closet
>>84167299
The only thing more fun than this is deflecting Mei's ult. I've caused actual heated arguments by deflecting a Bastion stream into someone squishy.
>>84167306
Oh. That explains the lack of accent (which is present in the mariachi skin).
Unrelated, but for the longest time I was sure he was voiced by David Hayter.
>>84167365
I actually love hunting Genjis as Symmetra but I mostly play Junkrat since he is good in nearly any situation, and fighting Genjis as him is a pain.
>>84167385
I think Junkrat got rid of what Mercy gave him and made his own stuff. That or those limbs just got blown off and he had ti build new ones.
>>84167395
>deflecting Mei's ult
How even
>>84167400
I fucking did too. He sounds just like Hayter.
>>84167415
Junkrat and Roadhog are criminals and had nothing to do with Overwatch. Why would Mercy fix them up? It's obvious Roadhog just jury rigged something for himself.
>>84167431
If you deflect it before it deploys it bounces back at her and effects the enemy team.
You can deflect Zarya's ult too. And Hanzo's.
>>84167385
straya has some shit insurance
>>84167431
You have to deflect it before it deploys, so you have to already be deflecting when the ult line starts, then jump in her face.
This also works on Dragon Arrows
>>84167431
It's a projectile bub. Anything that flies through the air and isn't energy can be reflected. Reinherdt flame thing? Get's reflected. 76 biotic field? You better believe your ass. Zarya, Hanzo and Mei ult? Chunks that shit right back at them. It's actually a little ridiculous how much stuff he can reflect.
>>84164556
My fucking nigga
http://exhentai.org/g/785163/b7db9e5851/
>>84167459
Mercy wasn't involved with Overwatch at the time. She showed up in Australia and saved Junkrat from radiation poisoning and hight have given him some new limbs.
>>84167462
>You can deflect Zarya's ult too
I don't want to play Zarya anymore
>>84167514
Don't worry, it's not easy.
I play Genji the more than any other offensive class, and I still find it really hard. Not as hard as Mei's, but pretty damn difficult. Incidentally, Zarya is my go-to tank.
>>84167462
>>84167474
>>84167475
Jesus christ, that explains some things.
>76 biotic field? You better believe your ass
I want to see what he does to Lucip's ult
>>84167514
Well, I know he can dash out of her ult, and tracking him with the main cannon fire is near impossible, but I didn't know he could reflect that shit.
>>84167069
Pretty much everyone in the overwatch roster hates or is indifferent towards Omnics except for Tracer, Winston, Genji, Mercy, Lucio, and Zennyata.
I know Junkrat, Roadhog, Zarya, and Torb have a definite hate on for Omnics.
>>84167385
As far as I'm tracking, all of Junkrat's shit from his limbs to his weapons are his own design. Mother fucker is why Mad Max works.
>>84167591
He can't do anything to Lucio's ult. He can't deflect his secondary firing mode wither.
Generally, non-projectile things can't be deflected. Symmetra's stuff, Mei's freeze ray, Winston's feather duster, etc.
>>84167615
Junkrat is arguably one of the best engineers in the game, just based on what he can build with junk piles.
>>84167610
I think a lot of the 'heroic' characters don't mind them.
Morrison is Captain America, so he's probably fine with them so long as they're good people. Reinhardt is seeing defending one from an angry mob in a cinematic teaser.
Add Reaper to that hate-on list, though. He has a few voice lines with Zenyatta that make his position pretty clear.
>>84167385
She more than likely gave him good prosthetics but seeing as how he is a junker he probably sold them for booze and then made his own to better suit him.
>>84167361
What?
>Deflects missiles
>Can deflect any throwable like Tracer's mine or McCree's stun
>Can deflect HIGH NOON
>Can deflect fire thing fron Rein
>Can guard against melee attacks
>Can deflect Lucio's sonic shit
>Can deflect Zarya's warp thing
Are you fucking high you dunbass?
The only ones he can't guard against are Winston's plasma and Mei's shitty fucking freeze, but even her ulti he can deflect
Fuck he can even deflect Hanzo's if you are close enough to deflect the arrow
>>84167610
Pharah had an omnic on her Helix team and seemed legitimately angry/sad when he kicked it.
Zarya's interactions with Zenyatta are great, by the way.
>"I've have my eye on you, omnic."
>"And I will watch your back in turn."
Too zen.
>>84167431
I've had RIPtire reflected back at me and even seen it hooked by Roadhog. The damn thing needs a buff.
When will Blizzard launch a new cinematic video? I hope the next one is about Junkrat.
>>84167610
>Torb at Kings Row
>"If you ask me, these Brits have their heads on right. Omnic Rights? Pah!"
>Torb at Nepal
>"It's like a culmination of a thousand of my worst nightmares! Are you kidding me!"
>Torb at Numbani aka robo-central
>He just starts yelling No
He really doesn't like the bots.
>>84167459
Mercy was there on a relief mission with Overwatch right after the Australian Omnium blew the fuck up.
>>84167626
> Winston's feather duster.
Haven't heard that one before, accurate and depressing. 10/10.
>>84167754
He can't deflect Symmetra's weapon or turrets either, no can he deflect Zarya's primary firing mode, or Lucio's secondary.
>>84167785
Soon, hopefully.
>>84167771
How anyone on the team can hate Zenyatta, I will never know.
>>84167799
>>84167799
>Hurr he can't deflect 5 attacks outta 20 fucking champions each with 4 skills or so
Kill yourself.
>>84167639
And clever enough to avoid capture when he and Roadhog have that $25 million bounty on their heads each. Plus being able to figure out what it was he found in the Omnium. The man is crazy for sure, but has a surprising amount of book and street smarts.
>>84167791
I really want him to join Talon for a while.
Though, really, I just want to see him beaten up in cinematic quality. He's one of those heroes that is fun to play as but absolutely no fun to play against.
>>84167863
If it weren't for the radiation making him crazy, Junkrat could have been one of the most intelligent people in Australia.
>>84167861
Are you really whining about a move called Deflect deflecting things?
Or are you just confusing me with the guy who said he deflects bullets?
Either way, calm down nigga.
>>84167201
Genji has an Arabian skin, Zenyatta has an Egyptian skin, and Torbjorn has a biker skin.
Skins and nationality aren't tied.
Posting something /co/-related.
>>84167889

>>84167255
He's from Los Angeles. But as far as Tumblr is concerned, his last name being Reyes means he eats quesadillas and speaks in Spanish all the time.
Not exaggerating.
>>84167917
>>84167889
>yfw Junkrat's radiation exposure and proximity to the Australian omnium gave him a limited form of technopathy

>yfw it's directing him to put it in the optimal position to regain its former authority and renew its war against mankind
It won't happen, but it would be extremely cool.
>>84167937
Welp, that ain't me.
I was just completing your list of stuff he can't deflect.
>>84167400
>>84167435
>He sounds just like Hayter.
You mean he sounds just like Hater.
Because that's who voices him.
>>84168055
Hayter voices himself? You can do that?
>>84167313
>Mexico is considered North American for some reason
Because it is. Look at the continent. There is zero reason to consider it separate.
>>84167255
>>84167965
The actual Mexican hero will be something like this. Because it's always something like this.
Overwatch appears to be the hot new donut steel template, by the way. Some of the results have been truly horrific. Half of them are just "Genji, but his movement ability does something else too."
>>84167313
>Mexico is considered North American for some reason
It's not considered North American
it is North American
>>84168077
Nope, Keith Ferguson. He also voiced Bloo in Fosters Home.
>>84168118
>He also voiced Bloo in Fosters Home.
I knew the laugh sounded familiar
>>84167431
Genji can deflect lots of ults.
>>84168118
I keep forgetting that Hater is also Bloo. The guy's range is crazy.
>>84168099
Best one I've seen was a girl with a car battery strapped to a water gun who would shock everyone around her like some reverse Zenyatta ult.
>>84167965
>He's from Los Angeles. But as far as Tumblr is concerned, his last name being Reyes means he eats quesadillas and speaks in Spanish all the time.
They also get mad at fan art of Reaper with pale skin despite the official art and ingame character model showing the skin exposed on his arms as pale.
>>84167965
>>84168167
Really, I don't know what you people would expect from that place
>>84168099
Yeah, all of the fan designs I've seen are basically minority+prosthetic limb+already existing skillset/exact same moves from some character in LoL
I REALLY hope the Overwatch comics will be written better than the Warcraft comics.
Warcraft comics had nice art, but the writing felt like it was meant for four year olds. Not so much because of the content, but because of the writing style/dialogue.
Like, no subtlety was allowed. Every characters motivation or feeling was expressed in paragraphs of text instead of conveyed with the art or clever writing.
>>84168199
This nigga looks cool though.
>>84167785
The ones who got comics (Roadhog, Junkrat, Pharah, Reinhardt, Torbjorn, Symmetra) are the least likely to get animated shorts.
>as far as Tumblr is concerned, his last name being Reyes means he eats quesadillas and speaks in Spanish all the time.
Tumblr believes that McCree is either Mexican or Native American as well.
>>84168199
Seriously, there's a lot of fan designs with prostetics
Yes, the Overwatch world has robots and cyborgs and the like. But 90% of the fan designs all look like each character got in "a tragic accident" and had to be reconstructed
>>84167965
Shit man, I'm mexican and he could've fooled me. I have an uncle who looks just like him
>>84168199
I want to see a character that's the antithesis to Zenyatta. A ruthless anti-human Omnic that's all for the invasion of Russia and starts anti-humie riots for shits and giggles.
Some kind African warlord looking motherfucker, mixed with Terminator.
God damn I do not care what people on tumblr think
>>84167500
Source?
>>84168285
Is he just as edgy?
>>84168281
What are the other 10%? They did it because it's cool?
>>84168281
tbf a good 1/4 of the cast look like that.
>>84168281
The only ones with prosthetics in the roster are McCree, Genji, Junkrat, and Torb.
Someone posted an info graphic that Pharah might be a quad amputee based off the elbow and knee joints of her armor.
>>84168333
>They did it because it's cool?
WorseThere was a 2 for 1 deal at the variety store

>>84168362
>Someone posted an info graphic that Pharah might be a quad amputee based off the elbow and knee joints of her armor.
This was debunked by the developers.
>>84168362
>People still getting up in arms about if Phara's a quadputee or if it's just a power suit
Wasn't that put to rest?
>>84168392
Didn't know. Oh well.
>>84168333
Man I hate the u-boats and tumblr, but it's gotten so much support it'll probably be canon. I respect y'all and your right to ship, it's just the people who ship these two tend to be utter shits.

Symmetra just has a glove that helps her manipulate hard light. Don't know if you count that towards robot parts or power armor.
>>84168526
I don't think Mercy has powered armour. It's just fitted with flight systems. It doesn't enhance her strength or anything.

Roadhog and Junkrat comics when???
>>84168886
https://comic.playoverwatch.com/en-us/junkrat-roadhog-going-legit
>>84168676
I'm not big into Overwatch lore. Is zenyatta actually magic Buddha robot or is it just thematic science? Like, is he actually using his spirit to lift his balls, or are they just anti-grav or something?
>>84168949
anti-grav
>>84168949
A bit of both. Some omnics figured out that they have a soul of sorts and decided to spread their word, but Zenyatta decided to do it his own way.
>>84168285
Careful, anon.Death walks among you.
>>84168333
>Drunk, frisky Mercy
Where can I read up on Overwatch lore?
>>84168244
You forgot McCree. He probably won't get one cause no smoking.
>>84169123
The official site has a bio for all the heroes.
There's probably a bunch of fluff links in the general on /vg/.
>>84169213
Blizzard's a britbong company, they don't give a fuck about smoking.
>>84169213
>>84169242
given how silly the tech in overwatch is I'm surprised he doesn't have a fucking vape cigar or some shit
Since Hanzo and Genji essentially confirmed that magic is real (probably) I want like an actual Shadowrun-esque Wizard for Overwatch that plays like something out of Lichdom: Battle Mage.
>>84169315
Vape can't beat the genuine thing
>>84169375
it was good enough for big boss
>>84169391
It was good enough for Venom, Vic always preferred the real deal (see: conversation on the topic in Peace Walker)
>>84169391
yes but big boss was replaced by a random nobody and nobody noticed. So what does a person that expendable know?
>>84169375
I fucking love how Overwatch was a family during its last few years. Its very heartwarming.
There are people who seriously care about the lore of overwatch?
>>84169500
It's a fun mix of saturday morning cartoons, superheroes, and comic book style characterizations with a dash of cyberpunk for flavor.
Relax, the lore and universe is no worse than like a Man of Action cartoon.
>>84169500
It reminds me of some older comics and cartoons, mixed with a little modern flair. Its fun.
>>84169500
Not really.
Even less since it has zero impact on the game
>>84169559
Thank god, at least one other sane person.
>>84166760
So how old are 76 and Reaper? In fact what's the general timeline? I'm having a hard time figuring out what goes where other than that decades have passed since Overwatch was disbanded. But McCree is like, 37, so he must have been pretty young when he got picked up. It's too vague.
>>84169572
76 is in his late 40s, I believe, so Reaper would be around the same age as well.
>>84169500
We're on /co/. /vg/ discusses game play and the community.
We talk about lore and fluff. It's a good trade off
>>84169500
>>84169559
I think that the game is non-canon
If you can wrap your head around that.

I think they are both mid 50, pushing 60.
>>84169500
Its the only reason I got into it.
People who play video games for just gameplay are like people who eat because they just like eating, not because they like what they are eating.
>>84169315
He's a cosplay cowboy. Gotta smoke the real thing.
>>84169663
So, its kind of like Mario Kart? Friends and enemies get together to do shit?
>>84169663
The game is the only canon, the rest is window dressing.
>>84169663
The game can be non canon when the lore makes more money. This is a business not a fanfiction forum.
>>84169685
Food exists to provide energy for the body
To eat for the taste is abominable
>>84169711
Speaking of, what are some good fapfics.
>>84169685
Good job I am not just playing it for the gameplay then, as desu, it isn'tthat good, really. Makes me miss pre-crazy shit TF2.
>>84169743
Email Samwise, I'm sure he wrote tons.
>>84169744
they still have these fucking retarded word filters? for fucks sake.
>>84169744
I find the vast amount of mobility options way more satisfying and fun than any era of TF2, but to each his own.
>>84169605
But they were heroes of the first War right?
>omnic war who knows how long with original squad
>golden age like a decade or something, they pick up McCree and Tracer and Winston and shit
>Overwatch disbands for "decades," at least 20 years
They've gotta be older than 50.
>>84169815
McCree is pushing 40 and Tracer doesn't age.
>>84169809
Mobility? What?
The broken as fuck balance is the problem.
>>84169846
>The broken as fuck balance is the problem.
In Overwatch or TF2? Because Overwatch is waaaaaay more balanced than TF2 has ever been.
If we're going to talk about video games on /co/, can they at least not be dudebro blizztrash?
>>84169885
>Overwatch is waaaaaay more balanced
Until they implement a feature that automatically kicks players who choose the third redundant hero on the team, it's going to remain unbalanced.
>>84169840
I know, I'm talking about Morrison and Reyes. And Pharah'd mom I guess. They have to be at least 50.
>>84169885
In comp play 15 of the 21 classes see regular play in Overwatch.
In TF2 comp play 4 of the 9 classes see regular play.
It's not good.
>>84169887
Buzzwordposting belongs on /v/ more than games with comics about them
>>84169840
Tracer was also their youngest recruit ever, being brought on board at 16.
>>84169702
Yes
>>84169704
Then why is Winston fighting on the same team as reaper?
>>84169907
How is this any different than a TF2 team having 4 spies on it?
>>84169920
So in Overwatch 71% of the classes see regular play, while in TF2 only 44% does.
Overwatch wins, can't argue with math.
>>84169930
In canon (the game) nobody hates eachother nearly as much as they hate the other color team.
>>84169927
So where does that leave McCree? If Overwatch disbanded 20 years ago he would have been 17 at the time. He would have spent a few months with them at best or risk infringing on Tracer's "youngest ever" status.
I feel like they haven't really ironed this stuff out yet. Hopefully the GN helps.
>>84169920
TF2 just seems boring to me and it's been boring to me since around two years after it came out. Honestly I have better memories of the original TF and CS mod for Half Life.
>>84169952
If the argument is which game is more balanced, yeah.
Valve's blatant refusal to nerf Soldier and Demoman despite their ludicrous towering height over the rest of the classes because of "m-muh skill cap..." doomed that game's competitive scene to irrelevancy.
>>84169984
TF Original was trash m8, stop welding nostalgia goggles all over your head
>>84165402
You can't be called a racist against something that doesn't even have a race.
Down with Omnics. Make humanity great again.
>>84169980
It's all in the artbook, Tracer for instance is 26, but didn't join up right at the start of the Omnic crisis, neither did McCree actually. McCree was apart of Blackwatch, the black ops portion of Overwatch that Reyes (Reaper) led, as McCree got caught during a robbery and chose it over going to prison. McCree is 37 though.
Also remember, not all the characters were even apart of the Overwatch program, like Junkrat and Roadhog for instance.
>>84169930

>>84170094
You gotta take it like the canon of Warcraft and that is to say there's no real solidified canon, there's just certain things that are more canon than others.
>>84169952
If this were Dorado, this post would show up as Play of the Game (shutdown class).
>>84169994
Overwatch is basically "Hey what if Soldier and Demoman were actually balanced and the game didn't revolve entirely around them? What if Demoknight wasn't stupid bullshit played exclusively by morons fucking around in mid? What if the flanking classes weren't totally fucking useless?"
The only exception of course is Widowmaker who is complete bullshit compared to the far better balanced Sniper.
>>84170064
Didn't know they dubbed this, it's great
>>84170112
Weird, but fair enough. I guess I'll accept it until we get something more solid.
>>84170153
that's because the only thing hanzo has over widow is his meme-tier shotgun arrow
that and widowmaker's assault rifle are my only complaints about those two because they're still really dangerous when you manage to get close to them and widowmaker has an out for every weakness a sniper is supposed to have
I hope we get a Zenyatta/Genji short. They have a cool relationship.
>>84170401

God I love overwatch
When are we getting more bad guys? It's a superhero game yet only 2 (maybe 4) out of 21 characters can be considered villains.
>>84170401
I'd prefer a Mercy or a Reinhardt story. Mercy was probably involved in Reaper's origins, so she could be handled like a modern necromancer of sorts.
>>84170509
I'd say we should put Pharah in the Overwatch section. She would have been a part of it before it shut down.
>>84170469
Zarya is so much fun to play. Outside of her design I didn't think I'd like her very much, but it's just so much fun popping shields and melting nigga's faces off.
>>84170509
I just want an evil Robot. #NotAllOmnics are peaceful and I expect one would like to join Talon or something to fuck shit up.
>>84156090
Roadhog
Please tell me when this scene took place. Tracer wasn't wearing her accelerator yet, and McCree looks really young.
>>84170608
Looks like it took place after the war, and before the jet accident. McRee was probably in his early 20s at this point.
>>84170509
Yeah, some more evil Non-Aligned would be great.
>>84156090
A toss up between Tracer, D.va, and Hanzo.
I play Lucio if nobody wants to be the support as usual, Symmetra really needs a healing weapon.
>>84170582
I haven't seen the episode of Spongebob where he does that caveman pose so I don't understand the sudden explosion of jokes surrounding it.
Like... did Spongebob spontaneously turn into a caveman... when the stakes were against him or something?
>>84167785
I'm hoping they introduce new characters in a short time. It's the reason why games like Dota and LoL are doing so well.
>>84170797
Not really sure. In the episode, Squidward goes back in time and meets these neanderthal versions of Spongebob and Patrick.
I believe the joke started in /mu/ or in "Black Twitter".
>>84169500
It's a world filled with fun, unique and interesting setting and characters paying tribute to comics, heroes and cartoons like G.I. Joe.
For example Overwatch is worldwide G.I. Joe and Avengers while Talon is a combination between Cobra and Hydra.
>>84170509
I want a evil female Talon-built Omnic that is used to spread lies and hates between humans and Omnics and ignite another Human/Omnic war, allowing Talon to take over the world when the dust clears.

There is functionally no difference.

No, please god no.
>>84169242
Blizzard is an American developer.
>>84171135
What about a stealth umbrella? Just a field that makes her allies invisible but only if they stand in the field and enemies who run under the field can see people there.
>>84171135
I think they've said that stealth in this game would be very hard to balance so they will avoid it as much as they can. Same reason we're not getting a spy character
>>84163417

>>84165402
That whole video was kind of silly. Oh no, somebody shot the holy robot man? Just hold down his power button until he reboots, dipshits.
>>84171743
Omnics have souls. He was actually killed, not just damaged.
>>84171676
She literally can't lead a normal life without it. it's not just a minor inconvenience.
>>84171754
There was no damage to his actual physical hardware. And unlike humans whose brains start degrading within like 10 minutes of being shut down that nigga could be turned off for YEARS and just be turned back on.
He's FINE. He's fucking FINE.
>>84171794
He's DEAD! He's dead and a blue bitch killed him!
>>84171754
So she hot glued a magnet to her bullet and erased his hard drive?
>>84171794
The funny thing about their logic is that if you can build something and it has a soul, then surely you can REBUILD something and it will have a soul. Stands to reason, really. So while I'm sure they have all kinds of philosophical arguments in their monastery about whether backups have souls too and if you replace some key component or upgrade your OS does that fundamentally alter your soul, they can always try. I suspect it's their goofy religion that refuses to repair him.
>>84171794
>>84171743
Let me explain it to you so that you can understand
>Omnics thinks that robots has soul like human beings
>When a human dies their soul leaves their body and they won't be coming back to life.
>Ergo Omnics can't just press the reboot button, because that would violate their belief that they have souls.
>>84171881
WE bring humans back from the dead ALL THE TIME. People have been legally dead for up to 5 minutes and been brought back. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH HIM GOD DAMN IT.
>>84171924
Then it wasn't their time to go yet if they came back, but did we bring anyone back that has been dead for 15 minutes?
>>84171794
How do we know it wasn't a blue-screen round?
>>84171924
She put a bullet through his hard drive.
Go shoot yours with a .308 cal, then see if you can reboot it.
Why is this thread so much better than the ones on /v/ or /vg/?
>>84172134
Because these are mostly about the lore instead of bitching about the matchmaking or forced 50.
>>84170549
She was a kid.
>>84172165
This.
Try discussing TES lore on a video game board, then compare it to discussing it on /tg/. All you get in the former is memes, mod talk, and people calling Bethesda fans shills. /tg/ on the other hand debates the history of the Emoire, CHIM, has lectures on the cosmology, and talks about Argonian waifus.
Although I'm still not sure why mods allow TES on /tg/, its never had anything resembling a tabletop game and the mods know its there because every time someone shitspams they get post deletions and a ban. Those generals have been there since /tg/ was created too.
>>84164239
So?
>>84172247
It's fantasy and the mods generally aren't nazis. /tg/ was just a place for DnD and 40k threads to go; it's never been super exclusive.
>>84163392
Wouldn't mind, probably have to age the kid up a little bit.
>>84171881
Let's try this so you might comprehend it:
ROBOTS AREN'T THE SAME AS HUMANS
Even if robots have souls why assume they function the same way? When a robot powers down does it "die"? If an EMP temporarily knocks one offline and then it restarts is it now considered a soulless zombie?
Deal with it.
>>84153616
Will it be as good as tf2 comic?
>>84172639
A bullet went through his hard drive. Hiw hard is that for you to understand?
One could say "we don't know if his hard drive was in his head", but the fact that the entire crowd including Omnics reacted in horror and Widow confirmed it as a kill means yes, it was in fact in his head.
In real life, 0 brain activity is considered brain dead. If a bullet goes through the brain, killing the person they are dead.
If you took out the prefrontal cortex of a brain and stuck it in a new body which is alive, is the soul still in that brain despite loss of all memory? That's philosophy, and not a question that even has an answer.
We know three organics were "killed" and resurrected. We know that in-universe, they scientifically know what a soul is. But in-universe, that robot has been killed.
>>84172101

Widowmaker is easily countered by almost all offense heroes.
>>84172946
When's the #6 issue going to come out?
>>84171743
If you shoot a hard drive you can't recover what was on it.
>>84173088
>0 brain activity is considered brain dead
That's for a person, anon. You seem to be having this really difficult ability to not think of machines as 1:1 shiny versions of humans. It's to your credit that your robot justice warrior skills are so honed. However you have no idea what an omnic harddrive looks like, or indeed if they even have one. Or indeed indeed if they even have internal drives but are merely cloud computed from their monastery beaming data from their nirvana servers to a shell so they can proceed to interact in the 3DPD world.
Also 0 brain activity is exactly what Bastion had until he was uncovered relatively recently. He isn't even fully operational to his original programming but he still has a soul.
>>84171794
>There was no damage to his actual physical hardware
Says who?
Widowmaker is a master assassin and sniper. You think she's not going to aim for his equivalent of a brain?
>>84173186
Actually you can. Forensic computing is amazing. There ARE mitigating factors involved, such as where in the hard drive the bullet impacted, and that's without going into the issue of how exactly omnic harddrives are designed, which curiously enough they haven't gone into details about.
>>84173195
Bastion now is not the same "person" as Bastion before. Different memories means different person.
>>84173215
Now that all depends, doesn't it. After all we saw in the vid she was aiming at Tracer's chest, Tracer did her time thing, and the bullet travelled onward to her real target but since her target was blocked by Tracer it's really impossible to know if the shot was exactly perfectly lined up anymore. At that distance any slight movements to the target would dramatically change the nature of the damage done.
Now she CAN see through obstructions but was that even active? Not that the video showed.
>>84173289
And people change all the time, anon. Sometimes yes even to brain injuries. We don't consider them soulless or even that their soul is fundamentally altered. The soul, by it's very nature, is the one part of you that CANNOT be injured or destroyed.
>>84172946
Extremely unlikely. When it comes to writing (especially comedy), Valve >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Bliz
>>84173195
Again, a bullet goes through a hard drive, it may as well have been a brain because that thing is done for.
In-universe, its confirmed not only that Omnics have souls, but the crowd reaction makes it clear he's just been killed. If you could just transfer data and a soul to another hard drive, you wouldn't have that level of horror from onlookers. That was Kennedy tier.
I get your argument. But the context the scene is in makes it clear that isn't an option. If backing up a hard drive was all you had to do for an Omnic to be immortal, they wouldn't have reacted as they did. Dude is dead.
>>84173333
If a person loses all their memories, they're not going to be the same person. And not the same person =/= Less of a person.
>>84173333
See, now you're getting into philosophy.
In fact, that is exactly one of the biggest philosophical debates that we've all been arguing about since ancient Greece.
>>84173103
man, learning Winston has been a field day of fucking up Widowmakers on their flank and making them hop away like Pepe Le Pew. I mean really, they both arch their legs the same way

I'm worried anout Mercy and Reinhardt. Especially Mercy.
Blizzard loves to take 100% morally upstanding characters and turn them evil.
>>84173374
Well that depends with a machine, doesn't it? Do they have backups? Does he have a doctor/mechanic who has scanned his coding to ensure he's healthy? How fundamentally different is his personality simulator from his memories? To what percentage of himself can his mind be reconstructed from his private and public records?
And were his memories even lost or do people just assume they were?
Less of a person is nothing. Is Bastion less than he was? He's less of WHAT he was, but who is to say the current one isn't superior? For a robotic religion who is to say they even feel judgements like "superior" and "inferior" can even be applied?
>>84165501
I got it
>>84173464
Mercy is definitely up to no good. She made Reaper into what he is now, and it's implied that her nanomachines have stopped her aging and doesn't even have a pulse.
>>84173464
Most of them already have alt-evil skins so it's not really a big deal. I'd be more surprised at this point if they don't do evil clones.
>>84155085
They weren't any more dangerous than any modern government.
The only difference is that that they were actually producing results and making a difference.
To those in power and small minded like yourself you view this as a threat.
>>84173511
She saved a life. It's not up to her to judge the merits of that life, and hardly her responsibility if he decides to become a massive dick with his second chance.
That shit's like hypocrite. Doctors aren't supposed to deal with the morality of their patients, that's up to the law or religions. They just heal to the best of their abilities.
>>84173544

>>84173407
I don't think the visor would help since targets are basically red blobs so Tracer would be a big red blob blocking a much smaller red blob in the distance but her visor cannot differentiate between the blobs in gameplay. Right? I mean it'd be different if Tracer was a wall.
Even if that's true though we could still argue over how much of gameplay is true to the lore and how much is just how the gameplay is balanced regardless of lore.

No one brought up the idea of calling one superior or inferior but you.
Also, all of those arguments apply to humans, too. If you could re-create someone's brain you'd have the same issue.
>>84156090

Gabriel's team was literally committing human rights violations. They were shit down because they WERE corrupt, just against the more noble members' wishes.
>>84173712
Actually it was first brought up over the notion of how much different Bastion is, which was a different anon. Bastion, however, is different for different reasons. He was just buried a long time and exposed to the elements.
>Also, all of those arguments apply to humans, too. If you could re-create someone's brain you'd have the same issue.
And? Just because they'd bring up the same issues that hardly negates the points brought up or renders the entire discussion moot. Overwatch is a super-science world where crazy shit happens all the time.

Pharah, Symmetra Lucio and sometimes Zarya.
Just want to say, you guys are arguing about the same cinematics in which Overwatch allows something as dangerous as Doomfist's gauntlet to float around unguarded for anyone to walk up and take. Even a child.
And after Talon fails to get the gauntlet they just put it back where it was and jet off. Reaper could literally phase back in and retrieve it five minutes later.
What I'm saying is I wouldn't scrutinize this stuff too hard cause it probably ain't gonna hold up.
