>>336332850
Extremely fun
You could just post in 1 of the other 13 threads.faget
Shitty battleborn ripoff
fun game but it lack maps and game modes to keep me playing more than over month
Fucking garbage this game won't survive til 2052
FULL PORN MOVIE WHERE?
>>336332850
Mercy is a cute. CUTE!Dunno, waiting for public access, but their waifu design is top-tier
>>336332850
Anyone know if the friend beta keys are working? For Today, I mean. Or do they have to wait until a few days?
>>336333240
>Mercy is a cute. CUTE!
KEK i love this meme. she is a cute. Way cuter than Tracy and better body
>>336333513
been waiting for a month, friend key still not working.
>>336333121
Pretty much this, though I also think it lacks enough depth to last very long even with more maps/modes.
>>336333240
Daily reminder that waifu fags are cancer
patch nerfed my favorites again.
>>336333513
the only beta keys that ever existed are the ones for early open beta access wich should work RIGHT FUCKING NOW GO PLAY THE GAME
>>336332850
probably the next big thing, feels like a fun and fresh TF2. Community might be cancer though because of the competetive nature of the game.
>"why don't you go support"
>"we don't need another Hanzo"
etc.etc.
>>336332850
20 tickrate is extremely noticeable, it's worse than playing quake on dialup.
Casual, bland garbage that children and stupid people will eat up because it's colorful and simplistic and their favorite twitch streamers will tell them they have to (after being paid by Blizzard under the table of course). Feels like a free to play game, just a rip off of TF2 with DotA abilities. And it'll probably go free in a month or two when the hype is gone and playerbase has dwindled to nothing.
>>336333772
i don't think anyone is ever going to complain about having multiple hanzos hes straight broken.
Will blizz wipe everything after this beta period?
Junkrat is fun.
fun as fuck, great game
>>336334074
they're wiping everything before full launch
Bretty fun, it's still in need of some balances and more content
Pretty fun no one really feels OP, I hate Tracer and Mei though and a good Widow maker and stop an entire team from advancing
I'm really confused
I've got in the beta last batch, but I only had time to play like 10 minutes of it. I liked it, but the beta was just for a weekend and I couldn't play anymore after that.
Is it available to play right now if I was in the last beta? Or do I have to wait until the open beta later this week?
>>336332850
Good fap material
>>336333972
>Another jaded ass-ravaged nigger.
What a surprise.
When will this chromatic aberration meme stop
Easier and less skill based than Call of Duty and LoL. Just mindless trash that practically plays itself just like Heroes of the Storm while constantly patting you on the back for "how well" you're "playing".
>>336332850
Pretty fun
Ults can be abused so defending teams have zero chance on capture maps since you can just steamroll cap from the 1st point then ult down the defenders on the 2nd for an easy cap.
Pubs are pubs, nobody plays support despite needing one, people won't swap if the hero is bad against a comp etc...
Roadhog is best, Tracer is most annoying.
>>336333609
>lacks enough depth
What did he mean by this?
>>336333772
>probably the next big thing, feels like a fun and fresh TF2
Pretty much this
>>336333891
Good meme, 20 tick was a meme made by a retarded redditor and was never true in the first place. Please stop shit-posting about games you haven't played.
Fun but I wish these people would pick at least one of every role.
>mfw I just snatched a key on twitter
Just open tweetdeck and let it pick every ovewatch key/code/beta tweet.
No key.
Ill try it on the 5th when it open beta's, but im afraid its going to be a 60$ half baked tf2 clone whos entry fee will discourage players.
Haven't been able to play yet (was overseas when I did accepted into a beta weekend) and I'm not game enough to pay the money when I know I can try it out for free in 2 days anyway
Actually got bored already.
Might regain interest tomorrow.
People need to group the fuck up.
>>336332850
>Overwatch: Fun the game
>Playing Mercy every round and actually winning
feels good
No depth, no content, piss easy. Will be dead by the end of the summer, if not we'll before then, and then will probably go free to play as it so obviously is meant to be. I can already tell they set it up the way they did so they could eventually fall back on that if needed.
>You round a corner where there is a mc-cree on the other side
What do you do.
really fun
much better than i expected
Any beta keys left bros?
I leave for work on the 5th so the only chance to play it is now with the beta key.
Help a brother out.
[email protected]
>>336334814
Accept your fate because thats all there is to it.
>You don't kill a Mei that you walked within distance of within 1 second
Same thing, those two annoy me more than most. If your team isn't on your back you are dead as shit.
Funnily enough I find both of them more dangerous than Reaper at close range, Reaper at least has to shoot you 3 times in most cases they can shut you down and kill you before you can react.
>tfw chasing girls with torbjorn
>tfw playing bastion and friendly rheinhardt directs all the attention down my killzone
>tfw playing with a helpful rheinhardt in general
>tfw reflecting widowmaker shots and mccree ults with genji
Fun as fuck, had lots of laughs playing as 6 winstons.
>pre order it staight from blizzard
>no key
I've finally reached cuck status.
>>336334902
Reaper is such shit it's not even funny, he might have little down time but he can hardly escape unless hes with a team, and his burst feels like the lowest burst in the game.
Hes also really fucking boring to play, it's just fat scout with invuln and a teleport that is only useful for setting up ambushes.
Help two bros out we really want to play dis! Thanks. [email protected]
>>336334996
had to have preordered before 29th, amazon would have been a safer bet.
>>336335029
I only find him fun when I'm on a huge roll, getting behind the enemy team is fantastic as him but honestly even then you can get fucked up really quickly. The best thing you can do as a reaper is to learn where all the health packs are so you can pop behind them, kill a few and steal the packs to keep being a slippery asshole.
Me and my friends went in not expecting much but came out pleasantly surprised!
Very high quality game as expected from Blizzard.
Definitely worth a buy if you enjoy fast paced, intense competitive FPS action.
>>336335029
I've been 2~3 shoting people with reaper and that takes less than 2 seconds. He's ok imo but its hard as fuck to get into the back of the other team unnoticed. He actually have more chance to fight back than the cowboy if he doesn't have the stun or mei, because he can kill you much faster than the freeze.
The only problem is that his damage in any range other than point black is shit. It could be even worse than D.Va.
Surprisingly fun, even though I feel like there are some issues with balancing. The charm will probably wear off eventually, but I've been having a great time.
>>336335196
>play mercy
>tracer and reaper constantly fucking my team from behind
>noone turns around, ever
>have to try to kill them with my shitty pistol
Life is suffering as a healer ;_;
>>336335096
Is there any way I can refund from blizzard?
>>336335196
reaper and lucio is best team.
>mfw deathblossum with gotta go fast from lucio
Theres zero down time with the two and if anything goes sour reaper just invulns and everyone skedaddles.
>>336334940
>mfw playing against Genji as McCree
>deflects all my bullets with his katana
>literally teleports behind me and kills me
>>336335332
yes you can open a ticket on their support and ask for a refund.
>>336332850
I don,'t think i can enjoy it.
Other than that...The visuals are cool.
The perfect blend between FPS and Mobas!
A MUST buy if you enjoy either of those genres.
>>336335304
Be honest: how many dicks do you imagine taking in your holes on a daily basis?
>>336335304
>have to try to kill them with my shitty pistol
Seriously whats with the pistols in this game, every single one of them is projectile based, but apparently are the "Strongest weapons in the game"
>>336335304
Use the voice chat or text. I got killed twice and said some shit on mic about it and people actually started to pay attention to tracers and reapers.
After that I was just texting tracer or reaper in the game and all of my team started to turn back immediately.
>>336335378
You deserve it if a genji catches you with your stun off cooldown, and if your stun isn't off cooldown what the fuck are you doing.
>>336334996
before 29th got preorder keyscuck
>>336335378
You know you have a stun, right? Other than that, stop shooting when he reflects.
>>336335416
plenty of reaper dicks and tracer strap ons
>>336335420
well, that's a good thing though, /v/ told me that hitscan is bad after all.
>>336335472
>Genji reflects the stun away
I was surprised that could happen, learned a lesson though, throw it at the ground by them not at them.
>>336335472
The stun grenade is only thing that stops McCree from being low tier IMO. Stun (assuming it lands) + right click is the majority of my kills.
>>336335378
At least you can play you fucker.
Any beta keys left?
>>336335304
That shitty pistol is fukn good! Not against tracer though lol
>One guy on my team is playing tracer
>Dies every single time he tries to go in
>Misses every ult
>Enemy team is pretty much locking his ass out
>Tell him he should probably switch since what he's doing isn't working at all
>"Reported for being toxic."
I wish these people would fuck off forever
>>336335029
Use his ultimate from a ledge too. Keeps you from being mowed down mid "DIE DIE DIE".
>>336335378
blizzy cuck
>>336335420
D.Va's pistol is surprisingly good. I wish I could change her mecha machine gun for pistols.
>>336335530
well that and his insane DPS.
>6 shots into something
>roll
>6 more shots into it
>>336335540
well yea it's fantastic for spamming into choke points.
really tough to fight off a tracer, but it's better this way.
>>336335547
You got what you deserved, it's not your place to tell anyone what to do, it's just a game and if sucking at a character is what he wants to do then mind your own business and let him.
>people on your team pick qts like Mercy and D.Va
>watching them get gunned down in battle
Starting to wish there were fewer waifus.
>>336335570
>I wish I could change her mecha machine gun for pistols.
I wish I could drop out of the mech for a bit and be able to re-enter it whenever I wanted.
Her fucking range is so shitty that you can't do anything if the team has an area locked down.
Haven't even touched my early beta from a long time ago pre-order.
It lasted literally 6 hours with me, all characters leveled decently. Every work-around in all the maps known. And wasn't that bad of a player.
But there's just no substance whatsoever. The visuals are great but it's been the same maps over and over and there is literally no flavor to it.
It was cater to competative but other than that. Meh, I'm bored of it already and already dropped before it was released.
I got cool mercy wings for diablo 3 though
>>336333535
well memed fellow redditor!
I have no complaints. Its a fun, quick shooter that seems to have the potential for long lasting appeal if it gets quick, plentiful content updates. The maps are alright, but I dislike how many of these maps are tied to modes and quick play forces you to do it at random.
D.Va is turning into one of my favorite characters to play too. Getting a 25 kill streak with my first time with her on payload was incredibly satisfying.
Its kinda hard to believe this is a Blizzard game.
>>336335791
>people pick cute waifus
>pick swedish chef and have their ass shoved in my face everytime we run from spawn to front
Shitty FPS that plays itself
Does it play like a classic class based shooter (tf, et, bf) in that you can have multiple players play with the same class in a team or does it work like a moba (dota, lol, etc) where only one does?
>>336335771
If a team mate's not pulling their weight, the rest of the team has the right to call them out on it
>>336335930
Most class stacking is done as a joke, or is retardly OP
Eg
>6 fucking bastions
>>336335930
duplicates are allowed, switching heroes is possible at any time.
i bet there is some fun to be had having the same character 6 times.
>in b4 Bizzard shits out a balance patch that nobody asked for that renders the game shit and blizzdrones will eat that shit up as usual
>>336335797
That too, I'm having sucess coming from above with the dash and getting behind the enemy line though, get a kill or two untill my dash is up again and then run away. Like a tanky tracer, even though sometimes it looks like I have only 150 hp with the mech, I read somewhere that the headshot hitbox is right in the middle of the glass so that could be hit.
>>336335771
I know this was satire, but it's extremely painful knowing the gaming population is growing more and more like this.
why can't the 1hr playtime early access beta players in unranked pubs play maps like my twitch tv idols im going to abuse them constantly :(((
mp fps is cancer
>>336335771
> if sucking at a character is what he wants to do then mind your own business and let him.
No though.
This is basically the "it's just a game" arguement.
If you're sucking that badly you should feel a bit bad and try a different hero. You don't have to not play the hero, but switch off if the team is obviously lacking because your lack of skill.
I just want a key.
It sucks so much, I'd pay for one if they'd let me.
Why the fuck have they limited this shit FOR SO LONG?
HEROES NEVER DIE
>>336336083
Not really, people have no problem calling you out on being a shitter in most online games. Especially if working as a team is actually required and you can't one man army it.
>>336336128
you're right but for the wrong reason
it's cancer because of people like you
people need to fucking apply themselves
>>336336169
You can buy keys on craigslist and ebay.
>>336336169
you can play it for free in like under 3 days
>>336336032
>>336336038
That's nice.
>>336336184For a price
AGUUUGGGGHhh
>>336336213
wow i literally don't have the aim of hal_9000 after not touching an fps in 2 years
i better literally kill myself instead of playing unranked quick games in a more or less public beta
i like where they are taking it
>>336336039
I guarantee at least half the characters will be nerfed beyond reason before launch.
>>336332850
i feel like it has the same problems that evolve had
So you don't even need to buy the game to play the open beta?
So I just fucking pre ordered this for nothing?
>>336336341
shitloads of day one dlc and no content?
>>336335893
(you) seem pretty hungry
>>336336292
Play support or some character that doesn't need that much of a good aim like mei, hanzo or tornbjorn.
>get shot
>Shit better get to cover
>wait a second behind cover
>die
Honestly is there a point to hiding?
>>336336346
The only thing you get from pre ordering is being able to play today and a widowmaker skin. The open beta starts on may 5th.
>>336336030
>>336336083
>>336336163
I report absolutely everyone who does this in every game I play. It's almost never directed at me, but I will never stand for it and bans are justified for trying to ruin people's fun whether they're doing well or not. Grow up.
>>336336346
preorders play may 2-9 everyone plays may 4-9
also you got a widowmaker skin
>>336334167
You got into one of the stress tests. You have to wait until later this week, assuming you don't have an early access key.
>>336336383
i'm just assblasted because of some retard throwing a shitfit that there's new players in his unranked game, it's more or less venting because anyone who thinks pubs matter in any form are literally retarded
>>336336341
Naah
>>336336439
Not on ranked.
more like overshill
>game ends
>slowmo plays for like 4-5 seconds
>VICTORY/DEFEAT
>blackscreen for like 2 seconds
>victor team pose for like 3 seconds
>play of the game for like 8 seconds
>results screen that lasts like 4 seconds
>EXP screen lasts like I don't know how long
>matchmaking game screen lasts like 15 seconds
>Oh one of the players left so lets dick around a bit in death match for like 30 seconds
>okay now pick your heroes for 40 seconds
>okay and now lets wait 40 seconds before the game starts
Holy shit, there is a lot of downtime between games.
So the open beta is for everybody? Even if you don't pre order?
>>336336341
Agreed. No content, no depth, and clearly set up for a million micro-transaction DLC characters and skins. I can already tell I'll be bored before launch.
>>336336403
there is a point to getting healed or looking for a healthpack
I kind of want to play but I don't want to have both Steam and Battle.net at the same time.
FUCK
>>336336621
Woah, it's almost like this is a online game.
Weird
>>336336509
Just mute him and move on. If there's no mute option, just ignore him or change servers if you can.
Only 1 retarded complained about 'picks' when I was playing. He said like 'wow dude, nice picks, why don't you pick something useful?' and then the proceeded to be the absolutely worst player I've even seen while our team was raping in an attack payload map with 3 bastions in the walking mode.
>>336336684
then close steam?
Pretty fun so far, liking the selection of characters so far.
Lucio is under appreciated, a support who can buff and heal his whole team including himself is amazing.
>>336336657
Yes, that's why it's called open beta.
>>336336657
If you pre-ordered, you got early access from now until the 5th, when everyone can get in.
>>336336710
yeah but in tf2 it's just
>victory for 6 seconds
>prepare stage for 40 seconds
>Game starts
Hanzo is bestzo
>>336336780
Agreed, he's extremely useful. I don't get many kills with him, but the heals are absurd.
Did they limit the maps that we can play again?
>>336336780
>Lucio is under appreciated
He's considered the best support by a metric fuckton and if they ever actually make this shit competitive, he'll be a staple on every team.
>>336336796
Pretty sure that's wrong since I pre ordered yesterday and didnt get shit
GEARBOX AND BATTLEBORN ABSOLUTELY BLOWN THE FUCK OUT
>>336336780
noone plays lucio because he'sblackit happens in every videogame.
>>336336780
How is he under appreciated? He's literally the best support and everyone knows that.
He's the only one able to make his team get to the point faster than a tracer.
>>336332850
>Preorder weeks ago
>Still no key
What the fuck?
>>336336489
I see, thanks anon
>>336336935
Lucio is Brazilian not black
>>336336960
Why don't you contact blizzard support, like any normal person would do?
>>336336927
yea i don't get it, i mean PC is not necessarly the same market but
>7 days before uncharted 4
>same day as Overwatch open beta
>same month as overwatch
they thought they can compete, but they fucked up.
>>336336927
>Battleborn devs
Are their bigger retards in the world? This isn't even a matter of which game is better. They came out of nowhere with their faggoty characters and expected to compete with a Blizzard game that's been hyped to hell and back?
>>336337025
Have to wait until tomorrow to contact support their livechat is down.
>>336336927
Everyone who played the beta saw that game was a painfully boring pile of shit. I uninstalled after 1 match. Not surprised in the least that it's flopping, and I'm glad it is. It certainly won't pick up in sales after this week either with Uncharted 4 and Doom out next week.
These fucking shit players are gonna ruin the game.
Doesn't help the matches last 7-8 minutes, but you stay with the same fucking players if you don't leave the match afterwards.
>>336336927

I know people like to hate on Zarya because of her design, but she is an unkillable force and her ult is the best. I don't think people know that if you hit her barriers, Zarya's weapon gets stronger.
>play with a good soldier 76
>mercy the fuck out of him with damage boost
>he wrecks the enemy team the entire game
his gun turns into a rapid fire mcree revolver
When is Blizzard going to readd Bastion's shield when in turret mode? He's clearly underpowered and needs a buff.
>tfw shit at every character I play
>keep bringing my team down
>want to keep playing
it hurts
>>336337280
Zarya is my favorite too anon. Got 40 fucking kills my last game as her and utterly steamrolled the other team because I had a god tier support healing me the whole way. Severely underestimated character, but it's fine since I'd rather not play against one.
>>336332850
I really want to play it, but I can't afford itI hate being a poorfag. Fuck bills and adult life
>>336337346
i tried to play bastion, he is weak as shit, i had better luck killing things walking around shooting shit like soldier 76
>>336337470
If you can find a decent nest, Bastion is retardedly strong. Lifewise he's weak, but his turret mode does a disgusting amount of damage, has sniper precision, and shoots faster that shit. Bastion can easily team wipe in a matter of seconds if people don't focus him down. Thank fuck for Genji's reflect
>>336336927
It's not f-fucking fair, fuck...
How do we fix this Gearbros?
>>336336927
who is randy and why is he a liar?
>tfw only played single player games or solo competitive like fighters, etc.
Fuck, I'm gonna have to get used to team games again. Tried to get roles/chars down but (and understandably since it's a beta) actual matches it feels like my team is doing whatever it feels like and disregarding picks or team composition.
Forgot this frustration.
>>336337592
>playing reinhardt on last point on payload
>bastion sets up top and will fuck my entire team up in a matter of seconds if I don't do something
>take the stairs and kill the dumbass because every bastion player has tunnel vision
>team loses because I wasn't standing on cart
Bastion on high ground with teammates on low is fucking scary.
>>336337802
Randy Pitchford, CEO of Gearbox. People are still assmad about that Alien game.
Has the open beta started? How do I get in?
>>336337917
Open beta doesn't start until the 5th, I believe. And open means open, so you don't have to do shit. If you preordered, then you get early access that started yesterday
>>336337917
Just closed beta for now friend, you get in by having pre-ordered before the 29th of April or having a friend/anon who did and gave you his extra key.
Open beta is the 5th
What do you think is strongest in each role?
Tank- Roadhog
Support- Lucio
Defense- Hanzo
Offense- Reaper
How much damage does Hanzo's arrow do. I swear no matter who I am and what HP it always seems to one shot.
>>336337956
I mean, how do I get the game? It comes with some totaly-not-steam launcher, doesn't it?
I never played anything Blizzard.
>>336337854
Wanna know how to have fun in a team based game?
Pick a character that compliments your team comp.
>team has high damage potential?
Pick mercy or zenyatta to make them kill shit instantly
>team is strong as fuck but slow as fuck
pick lucio and your team will stampede over everyone
>team has stupid strong turteling abilities?
pick a character like tracer or genji and kill anyone that tries to take an alternate route
Theres a lot more stuff, but it's always best to pick the one class that solves a huge flaw the team shares.
>>336337652
>gearbros
those don't exist right?
i mean they can't exist.
unless there are people who unironically like meme humor
>>336336621
As someone coming from R6:Siege, the wait time in-between matches in Overwatch is nothing in comparison.
>>336338021
If he hits you in the head and you aren't a tank or jacked up on shields/armor you're super dead.
>>336338009
Offense: Pharah
Tank: Zarya
Defense: Torbjorn
Support: Lucio
>>336338038
Yeah, battle.net. Which is like a game launcher for Blizzard games, you can't buy through it tho. You'll just get redirected to their site.
And you can buy it from said site.
Which girl is your favorite?
>>336338123
>torb
>good
KEK
Too many characters that just absolutely fucking steamroll with others being completely useless. Have a team with "no aim mcree" and "hit R to aim generic soldier" and you're guaranteed to win.
Widowmaker can just fucking spam her left click with literally no cooldown to it, recharge, or anything that a regular sniper has to stop them from just spamming. Her body shots are almost instakill as well so there's nothing stopping you from just mashing left click on some one until they're dead.
Bastion does way too much damage. I managed to catch one who hadn't transformed and was just walking around so I started shooting him into the back. He just sat there and transformed taking everything to the face and then killed me in a matter of seconds while I was still trying to kill him. His shield wasn't the fucking problem, it was his damage.
Other characters can go suck a dick just because of how useless they are and bring nothing to a team.
>>336338167
Widowmaker, Mei, or Pharah
>>336338021
125 max for a single charged arrow
375 max if all of his scatter arrows connect

I'm going to marry Tracer!
>>336338167
Mercy=Pharah > Dva > Widowmaker > Mei >Tracer > Symmetra
>>336338009
I don't know who is strongest, but my favorites are:
Tank- Roadhog
Support- Lucio
Defense- Junkrat
Offense- I guess Pharah, but I don't really like any of the offense heroes.
>>336332850
monday night combat and moba's hero skillset slammed into a butt sandwich composed of blue and british with the familiarity of TF2.
It's fun, but no more fun than TF2;
it'll be good till you just flat out get sick of it and their good/terrible cash shop shit.
Like its not bad, but how many of you still play TF2? I'm sure you get on it sometimes, but if it ain't feeling like beating a dead horse yet...
>>336338242
Doesn't he do 250 on a normal charged arrow if he headshots?

have you even played the game?

Jesus christ anon you are trying too hard
>>336338280
>MNC
Is this copypasta from a Battleborn threads or do you just have no idea what you are talking about. Gameplay-wise, this is literally identical to TF2. There are no creeps/minions or thones to destroy, it's payload/cp
>>336338193
Consistently get over 20 kills with him. The turret rapes faces and his gun is fucking great. Maybe you just suck with him.
Its going to be the game you play for an hour with your m8's every weekend inbetween gaming sessions. Just like heros of the storm or smash bros.
>>336338330
Yes, I think all headshots do double damage unless they changed it
>>336338408
Maybe you're playing with fucking retards. Once players start spreading out in matchmaking you'll find that he's literally useless against pubs who know what they're doing, even more so against a coordinated team.
Any one here playing on console? Is it dead?
>>336338280
>how many of you still play TF2? I'm sure you get on it sometimes, but if it ain't feeling like beating a dead horse yet...
because TF2 turned to shit
>it'll be good till you just flat out get sick of it and their good/terrible cash shop shit.
also what do you mean?
the skins emotes etc. that are unlockable by just playing the game? hell those that you can even specifically target to unlock with ingame currency? these cosmetic items you can't trade? it's a great system that keeps giving you shit to unlock.
>>336338350
Are you even playing the same game as I am? I even tried out widowmaker to see if it was just people that were being amazing with her. I was horribly wrong. I hardly had to aim at all and just had to mash the fuck out of my left click button and not even aim for the head for a penta kill.
>>336332850

Okay, thanks. Sorry for stupid questions.
>>336338408
>Turret rapes faces
Even Mercy can solo the turret with her shit-pistol because the AI is complete and utter trash.
This game is fun but nothing that much new came from this. It's just a TF2 clone but with a different style and maybe slight gameplay differences but I don't understand the blatant hype. It's fun but it's not all that special. Can someone elaborate on this more for me? Or, maybe I'm being a little too harsh.
havent got in so hows junkrat and reinhardt?
>>336338009
>>336338123
>Hanzo
>Torbjorn
What the FUCK? How could you think this? No one fucking compares to Junkrat in defense, Mei is like a distant second.
>>336338048
Thanks for the tips. I've got a lot to learn but we all have to start somewhere.
I'm trying to balance out my teams when I play but it seems people are just picking willy nilly right now. It's cool though since there doesn't seem to be much pressure since this is a beta.
>>336338396
oh MNC was already pretty close to TF2, I only said that for its characters and not so much because of how it played. Which is why I said it has the familiarity of TF2 because it plays very much just like it. What it brings to the table is that it has these unique hero type characters with their own abilities and shit that feels like a MOBA.
Sorry if I wasn't clear about the MNC thing.
here is a sexy sprite
>>336338021
just wait until you play against people good enough to go 6 hanzos at the start of a round and they all spam scatter arrow.
>>336338532
Rip-tire, but it's one of those things where everyone seems to utilize it better than me. Other Junkrats easily gets a 6 kill teamwipe with their ult because people are sitting in a group. When I use mine, it gets destroyed instantly, no matter how sneaky I try to be by climbing up walls and shit.
>>336338579
No problem, and it was no stupid question, battle.net is just a weird social gimmick Blizzard tried its hand at.
>>336338625
Both are viable. Junkrat is quite strong actually.
>>336338604
shills mate people here are payed to give out keys and shit.
>>336334281
>Lol
Nice shitpost ya got there. LoL is the most basic game of all time. In an FPS you have to actually move your character manually and rely on reflexes to aim and secure kills. LoL is trash and poisoning Dota
RYUU GA WAGA TEKI WO KURAU
>>336338638
Depends on the map layout. Junkrat is fucked if the map is too open
>>336338604
Nah, you're exactly right. No idea where the hype came from, but it's entirely unwarranted and will probably turn into a significant backlash of disappointment and hate in a few weeks. This game is very mediocre and does nothing new, original, or outstanding in any way. It's not bad, just not something worth being excited about. Will be forgotten and dead within months.
>>336338598
the turret is pretty fucking stupid
hitting reinhart's shield because he walked into the line of sight first then tracer hits it at near point blank range to the right of where it was shooting
>>336338491
you act like there won't be a cash shop, boy are you in for a surprise. It is the year 2016, every game now is buy access to the cash shop freemium model
>>336338604
Pretty easy. Did you enjoy TF2? Did you spend thousands of hours before Valve ruined the game? Do you miss the days when TF2 was overrun with jews and BRs? Most of us are trying to relive the days since TF2 has been dead for years. This isn't the same and it won't have the same staying power, but I'm hoping it'll give me a few months of enjoyment.
>>336338604
Lol if you think the hype is crazy. You should see the hate. People preordered a teamfortress 2 clone (its fun) but not really ground breaking. And they are super pissed off. Not even like blizzard did a bait&switch or anything.
I am straight up scrubbing teams with Bastion, I've got the play of the game every time by going turret mode in a corner and team-wiping while being buffed or healed by a supporter. Will I see counters to this farther along in ranked?
>>336338669
>just wait until you play against people good enough to go 6 hanzos at the start of a round and they all spam scatter arrow.
They're seriously going to patch it where you can't pick the same character in a row like this, just watch.
>>336338625
Both good. I can't play Reinhardt but he's probably the most invaluable defense hero. Junkrat is both strong and fun as shit.
>Watch a streamer playing
>Character he's playing has a fucking hook
>Guy he's playing with gets a quad kill by suiciding his mech into the enemy group
I want to play this now.
Can you pre-load the game for open beta in a few days?
I have potato internet
>>336338723
>lol easier than blizzshit

blizzard shit is notorious babbymode
>>336333972
Are a special kind of stupid or what? They are really making it for children and adult, it almost the same as TF2, cause clearly if they can make a game for children and adult it a big profit plus adult can monitor their kids while playing with them... So why not...
>>336338789
Its even more sad that people preordered a game without playing its open beta to try it first.
>>336332850
Well in my personal opinionI want to fuck mercy
>>336338817
That's every match ever. Bastion is faceroll OP if you have even half a brain. Genji is supposedly a counter because of his reflect, but most Bastions see it and stop shooting until it's done.
>>336338876
You should be able to. I was able to preload when I got into the stress test a few weeks ago.
>>336332850
I haven't had this much fun in a long time.
It actually makes me a bit sad realizing that I haven't felt this amount of fun in so long.
how the fug does gunslinger guys ultimate work? can he shoot more than 1 guy?
>>336338945
What's the most pathetic is the massive amount of anal pain by shitposters. I guess it's because it's a Blizzard game and neo-Blizzard is a shit company, but shitposters have been in hyperdrive for months.
>>336338780
>Did you enjoy TF2? Did you spend thousands of hours before Valve ruined the game?
How did they ruin it?
>>336338945
Its a bad habit thats for sure. But theres alot more games out there that deserve the kind of hate overwatch is getting right now. Hell. Its getting more negative reviews than arkham knight got.. and that game was straight up broken.
remove baston
>>336339110
they didnt ruin it, people stopped having fun so they just go "oh valve ruined tf2"
>>336339102
a lot of it is because blizzard said they want overwatch to be the biggest competitive shooter in the world, and the game is balanced around 20 tickrate, which is so low that the game actually can fail to transmit to the server that you have moved away from an enemy firing at you in time. in a COMPETITIVE SHOOTER. pic related.
Favorite Hero so far?

>>336339110
The cliff notes version is: Mannconomy, f2p update, a metric fuckton of weapons that never get balances, focus is on hats more than game, and literally every server is people trying to jew or circlejerk about hats instead of playing the game. I'm sure there are some fine vanilla servers, but they are a very small minority. TF2 is a shell of its former self, the people who don't admit it are like the people who still play WoW and pretend that it's still good. It's time to move on.
>>336339171
McCree is such a fucking pub stomper.
>>336339168
The concept of this shit becoming "competitive" is as embarrassing and competitive TF2. I'm playing this because it's fun and pretty casual.
>>336339168
>a lot of it is because blizzard said they want overwatch to be the biggest competitive shooter in the world, and the game is balanced around 20 tickrate
What a fucking laughingstock. "W-well it's not competitive because the refresh rate on my monitor is about 1/20th of a second off when I p-pull the trigger!" No no no. Stop it with that pretentious competitive bullshit.
>>336339218
The pc port was broken. And was pulled from sale. Its relevent since blizzard is primarily a pc developer.. besides i wasnt throwing a punch at the content/quality of the game. Just whats more deserving of internet hate.
>>336338167
>>336339151
>they didn't ruin it
it was actually completely ruined on day one and had less than 25%, yes, less than 1/4, A QUARTER of the features of Quake Team Fortress.
-All classes lost hand grenades
-All classes lost deployables (not dispenser and turret you retard, things like pyro magma holes, demoman detpacks, scout caltrops, sniper mines, spy trapped backpacks, engineer laser drone, etc)
-Some classes lost alternate weapons (pyro incendiary rocket launcher with the blastwave that goes through all solid surfaces)
-Armor was removed in favor for adding shitloads more health
-Medic beyond overpowered, exchanged disease axe for a long range infinite ammo healgun that can make the target INVULNERABLE
-Promised gamemodes like hunted and four-team (4fort4 and variants) still not officially added even today, had to be modded in
that's just off the top of my head, if i get into the nuances of maps and specifics of each class i could easily keep going for another half hour if not more.
>>336339168
heard it's because they want to make the game still playable on >50ms latencies.
>>336339464
Holy shit that is hot and I didn't even like her.
Too bad her body doesn't look like that.
>>336339505
These feature changes sounds more like balance changes and makes sense when you look at it this way
>>336339454
Overwatch is on console as well though and I'd imagine at least some of hate for it is coming from there. It's totally deserving of the hate at any rate though, it's not very good.

The game is still alive and well though.
I'll tell you come wednesday when I can play
>>336339464
if her body looked like that in game i would pick her.
that's noice
and more accurate to strong women
>>336339609
nah, it absolutely ruined the game, which was meant to be unbalanced so every class had multiple unique things to bring to the table, and nobody was "weak" or played a "support" role.i'm just 32 years old and bitter that modern shooters are so terrible compared to their predecessors
So open beta for people that don't own the game is tomorrow, right?

I wouldnt say its not very good. I keep that designation for cases where the games online service/ matchmaking is crap. Or it has an unstable game engine that leads to memory leaks/frequent crashes. Id rank the game a 5-6.5/10 not really deserving of the hate. Nor is it deserving of any praise/attention.. generic/forgettable.

Shit shreds bitches.
Expected to hate D.Va, easily my favorite so far. Except whenever I get play of the game it's just watching my mech glide off around a corner as I fuck around with a pistol and it takes out 3-5 people.
>>336339528
That and they want the game to feel "fair" when two players shoot each other at the same time, and they both die, instead of the one with the faster connection winning because he shot .00003ms earlier.
>>336339804
I got a POTG for using Zarya's ult on Genji after he used his ult. It was hilarious. Poor dude was just sitting there flailing away with his sword, pinned in place, while everyone on my team he was trying to kill stepped back about five feet and shot him in the head.
>>336339765
Nerf when?
Don't say Tracer players should just stay at max range of his hook because they need to get in close to kill other players.

>>336339980
Cant say i notice this that often.. most of the time during the killcam/respawn timer im busy monitoring the map. Considering a hero swap. Its less a twitch fps shooter and more a brawling moba. If you want fast reflexes go play cod/csgo. Where it actually matters
cant wait to be a piece of shit and play torbjorn
My least favorite thing about Roadhog is his ult. The pushback is useful on objectives, but it makes killing people a pain in the ass.
>>336332850
I haven't played this game yet but I'm thinking of getting a copy. However there are some things and concerns that makes me uneasy of picking the game up like the fact that a team can only have 6 members is a big concern. Some answers to the questions would be nice.
How big are the maps in Overwatch? TF2's maps are big enough to satisfy more than 6-12 people. Since Overwatch can only hold a maximum of 12 players overall, are the maps too big and/or barren for them or are they just right enough to satisfy everyone?
In TF2, you can just join in and out of a match, whether it's on going or not, as you please without getting a warning or something like that just like in a MOBA game. Can you still do the same with Overwatch or do you have to wait in a lobby to join a match?
How many maps are there?
How many modes are available and what are those modes?
Can you change your character in between game?
Is the feeling and enjoyment of the game is at least equal or bigger to TF2?
Can a team have more than 1 character?
Can it support different kind of servers just like in TF2?
Can it load custom maps?
All available characters and upcoming characters are free right?
Can a team still win or even last longer even if they have no specific character that fills a role (like there's no support, no tank, etc)
>>336338009
>he hasn't used the bastion's heart combo
Hows it feel watching your entire attacking team die infront of you
>>336340016
you should be at max hook range because roadhog is a large orb of hitbox meat that you can't miss if you're trying to
>>336340247
if you get someone pinned against a wall it does a HILARIOUS amount of damage. it's really, really ridiculous on points that are closed off, like some of the stages on tibet or the first point on hanamura.
is it normal to be bored of this game after a day. Will launch have tons of more maps?

>>336340297
STFU and wait for 2 days, then play the game before coming back.
Stop getting information from others.
anyone have a spare key or do I have to wait a whole day to play this shit
I swear to god I never queue into Anubis or Hanamura. It's always R66 or Nepal
>>336340247
It's useful when your on one side of a wall and the enemy team is on the other side. You wait until they all start to rush, pop ult and then watch them freak out as they all try to turn around.
>>336340361
>brown
>>336340318
This beta includes every map. And yeah, it's normal since it's barebones and simplistic, no depth or variety. The people who aren't bored yet are beyond saving.
Games ok but sometimes I feel the matches are to short and the maps a to small unlike TF2.
Now TF2 is a pile of shit now but this game needs some work to be as good as vanilla TF2.
Also with Genji is he melee oriented?, I cant kill shit with the shurikens and melee doesn't seem to do much damage really.

Do the person even have to be in my friend list for the code to work?
>>336340297
Maps are the right size. The only time it feels big is on defense when going to the first point, but that's designed to be a "long" walk for balance.
I don't know about dropping out of matches, but there is a quick join button that will put you into the next available game. Usually that's fresh, but I've also hopped into games that are in progress.
12 maps at launch, I believe
Yes, you can change your hero at will when you are dead or in the spawn. Yes more than copy of hero.
Enjoyment so far is pretty similar to TF2.
Rarely do you get a team that's properly compositioned, so yeah it's possible to win without a healer or tank.
Payload sucks ass. It wasn't fun in TF2 with the minecart and it's not executed even half as well here as it was there.
>>336340297
>How big are the maps in Overwatch?
They are fine and feel the right size for 6v6, a lot of flanking paths and chokepoints, sometimes feels really slow running from spawn to the capture point.
>In TF2, you can just join in and out of a match, whether it's on going or not
same here in unranked at least, ranked will probably have a penalty
>How many maps are there?
more than TF2 at launch, also a bunch of modes and they all feel very different not just desert 1 and desert 2
>How many modes are available and what are those modes?
3 or 4, payloads, capture points, king of the hill off the top of my head
>Can you change your character in between game?
just like TF2
>Is the feeling and enjoyment of the game is at least equal or bigger to TF2?
yes it's very fun especially if you land a good ult or escape with low HP, soldier equivalent doesn't feel as good since it's not as much about popping people up and air rocket / rocketjumping but more about artillery fire from the air.
>Can a team have more than 1 character?
yes they can all be the same
>Can it support different kind of servers just like in TF2?
no, no servers only official matchmaking
>Can it load custom maps?
no
>All available characters and upcoming characters are free right?
yes
>Can a team still win or even last longer even if they have no specific character that fills a role (like there's no support, no tank, etc)
probably

All of them are about the size of the first stage of Thunder Mountain
>In TF2, you can just join in and out of a match, whether it's on going or not, as you please without getting a warning or something like that just like in a MOBA game. Can you still do the same with Overwatch or do you have to wait in a lobby to join a match?
Lobbies. You play in a "warmup round" before everyone joins and is assigned to teams.
>How many maps are there?
>How many modes are available and what are those modes?
12, 3 for each game type (Assault, Control, Escort, Assault Then Escort)
>Can you change your character in between game?
You can change your character whenever you want, so long as you're in your spawn.
>Is the feeling and enjoyment of the game is at least equal or bigger to TF2?
Eh. Feels more like Super Monday Night Combat to me.
>Can a team have more than 1 character?
Yes. You can have 6 Winstons or 6 Tracers if you wanted.
>Can it support different kind of servers just like in TF2?
Nope. AFAIK it's all dedicated servers that are auto-joined upon entering the queue.
>Can it load custom maps?
No.
>All available characters and upcoming characters are free right?
Yes and Maybe.
>Can a team still win or even last longer even if they have no specific character that fills a role (like there's no support, no tank, etc)
Can a Spy completely shit over an entire team of 12 in TF2 if said team is incompetent?
>>336340562
>It wasn't fun in TF2 with the minecart
>>336340562
I also don't really like Payload, but it's literally identical to TF2.
>>336340475
imagine his left click like a burst on a rifle, aim the shots for the head at medium range for decent damage. Use his rightclick to guarantee damage at farther range, and to do bonus damage at close like a shotgun.
Do not melee with him, his shurikens are actually really powerful. Get a few hits in with them on the head and then pick them off with his shift. If they turn around to fight just use E.
>>336340562
>Payload sucks ass
Nigga Payload is the best game mode in TF2, followed closely by 5CP.
So here's a real issue the game has:When the fuck are SFM creators going to re-make the tracer model so she doesn't look like rule 63 scout?
All the other girls turned out great except her
>>336340686
Thanks anon at least now I will not be trying to melee everything all game since I thought he was built for that.
Anyone else got any other hero tips?
>>336340656
Theres way too much area that needs to be secured before you can push the payload.
The cart is way bigger so you can use it for protection but at the same time it's fucking difficult to see whose pushing.
You can build shit on it and make it a mobile death machine.
A lot of the classes are long ranged so being picked off while pushing will happen a lot
Pushing the payload in overwatch feels way different and a lot less fun.
Haven't played it yet, but I'm grateful for the character assets.
>>336336920
The cutoff was the 29th.
>>336340805
Only Melee with Genji when you're Ulting.
Otherwise it's be an annoying prick with shurikens.
>>336335771
I know you're bullshitting but fuck, is this another MOBA where you can only play specific roles depending on your team comp and get called out for not being good enough or not playing the right class?
Can you have some good old TF2 fun where you pick a class and do whatever you want, with winning being afterthought?
>>336332850
that's a lovely artwork
>>336340875
You can do whatever you want but you always need a healer and bad team comp can lose the game if the enemy team exploits it.
>>336340875
kinda... in not ranked at least.
you will still get some shit when everyone picks sniper just like TF2.
>>336340846
I agree.
>>336340875
It's a competitive FPS game.
Of fucking course you're going to have tryhards.
>Thought I was going to main tracer, widowmaker, D.va and mercy

They're so much fun on complete opposite sides of the spectrum. Junkrat is fucking great to bounce around shooting shit everywhere like crazy.

The only other character I really liked was bastion and that's just because he's so fucking cheap the first time I played him I went 30/0 k/d. What were they thinking? turret is so fucking strong, takes half a second to change into, no healin startup or cooldown, and can change out to dodge instantly. He needs to be nerfed even more and thats from playing AS him not AGAINST him.

I really want to like it, but I feel so useless whenever I play it. I've always been bad at FPS games, but something about Overwatch makes it hurt extra bad. I've been playing Mercy and Reinhardt almost exclusively, simply because I don't need to be good at aiming to assist my team with them, but I'm still a worthless piece of shit and die all the time even with those training wheels on.
I'm not gonna try and make any excuses or anything, I just can't handle this game well. Tracer's hitbox is so tiny and she's so squirley, I feel like I'm trying to thread a needle in a windtunnel whenever I fight her. I have no idea how people manage some of the stuff I see them do in replays. Sometimes I find myself thinking "are they using an aimbot?" Then I realize I'm just being paranoid, and that I'm so behind the curve, never having gotten into CoD, TF2, CS, or any other big shooter, that I have almost no chance of competing with the game's target demographic. It's my fault for not having any FPS experience, and I realize that, but it doesn't make the losing streaks feel any less soul-crushing when it feels like I'm constantly fucking over my team.
>>336341029
Tickrate is not the sole deciding factor on whether a game is competitive or not.
It's clearly going for the 6v6 UGC TF2 comp format style of gameplay.
I know this sounds like a dumb positive, but I'm at least excited for the prospect that I finally get to play something that resembles TF2 with friends.
I really like TF2, dumped about 400+ hours into it, but literally no one else I know is into it.
Lots of people I know are getting into OW though.
>>336340875
You can pick whoever you want, but the game nags you if you're team is lacking in any given class type. So if everyone are damage dealers like Hanzo or McCree, it's going to encourage you to pick a tank or support or something. And any team lacking in any area is probably going to struggle, except maybe defensive ones if you're attacking.
>>336340951
Nice, did you pose that? I'm working a project right now myself with Mercy.
she is so perfect...
>>336336169
>Id pay for one if they let me
They did let you you dingus. Should've preordered
>>336341192
She's so shit, only time I ever see her do anything is if my symmetra camps out in a stairway spamming turrets in hopes that some unlucky soul passes by for one single kill. Otherwise, she's a shit support.
>>336341192
POO
I know I'm really bad, but the game also feels a little unbalanced?
>Multiple choke points, especially with the escort gamemodes. People constantly grouping up, defending one or two possible positions.
>Tanky characters with one-shot-kill potential.
Things like this really don't make sense to me. But I'd love to hear how to work around this.
Mercy = Low Tier shitter healer
Lucio = God Tier healer in skilled hands
Y/N?
>>336341192
>Expected her to be a weaker version of Mini-turret Engie
>Get a hybrid of that and Quake
>>336341192
Her and reaper are pretty much tied for worst characters in the game
Still haven't seen a good Winston yet.
Is he even a good character?
>>336341120
Although sometimes an unbalanced team can be ridiculously powerful. Especially if everyone picks one class, sometimes the advantages just stack until fighting it is impossible.
>Trying to get anywhere near 6 defending bastions or torbjorns.
>Trying to do anything with 6 tracers sanic'ing around and getting back to objective lightning fast even if you kill them
>Trying to set foot in front on objective against widowmakers
>>336340297
>Can a team still win or even last longer even if they have no specific character that fills a role (like there's no support, no tank, etc)
What a dumb question.
You can't do this in TF2 either unless you play against retards.
It's like an extremely bland version of TF2
I'll have fun with it for two weeks or so, but it already feels like I've reached the skill ceiling, and the maps are really bad
Ultimates are retarded
>>336341317
Game is actually very balanced, 1 of the most important things is stick with your tank and healer.
I had a game where I played McCree with a nice Roadhog tank and Mercy healer and we demolished the enemy team hard.
>>336338048
>Wanna know how to have fun in a team based game?Play with friends exclusively
>>336341398
He's a hard counter to support and weak characters like Widow.
So, who's gonna buy the game because de beta?
I will. Fucking fun game.
So how much damage does Zenyatta do with a headshot on a target he has discorded? Seems like a lot.
>>336341398
Winston is fucking great
His mobility is bananas
>>336341192
Put your garbage-tier man jaw curry nigger back in the shithole she crawled out of.
Best girl coming through.
>Keep getting forced to play support or tank because my teams are selfish as fuck
I JUST WANNA TRY ALL THE CHARACTERS WITHOUT GETTING FACEROLLED
>>336341365
>Mercy
>Low tier
>Being able to rez her entire fucking team
>>336341317
Defending is easier than attacking, but the attackers spawn closer to the action, that's the main tradeoff. Additionally, since you know they have to defend, you have a better idea of how to approach, and there's almost no chockepoints in any map that don't have multiple alternate paths to flank from. Basic rule, if you die before you managed to shoot anything, then you need to go a different route and clear the defense before trying to push.
>>336341454
most ultimates are too week, hanzo and McCree have pretty bad ultis, tracer has a nice ulti with high recharge time that so usefull against stacked or cornered teams.
All I wish for is that I get teammates who want to get the objective.
>>336341365
Lucio is really easy to use, his heal is just an aura. I mean, he's far and away the best one, but I wouldn't say he's complicated at all.
>>336341192
Shes the reason that there isn't a good class with a teleporter.
Also her sentries are hilarious to break. they're like wall zits that just pop when you walk in a room.
Shes fun with a team though and really stronk on high ground.
>>336332850
It's very fun, I haven't played anything like this in a while. Lots of different styles to play depending on what shooter you prefer.
Don't know how it holds up over long time though.
>>336338817
Bastion is just the noob wrecker since inexperienced players don't know how to deal with him
>>336341365
>look up Lucio's character
>"An international celebrity who fights for social change through his music and actions."
Yeah, no, he's pure shit. No exceptions.
>Damn this character has no back drop or depth other than -half black half cyborg-

>BRILLIANT
>Everyone at blizzard applauds and pats themselves on the back
>>336341548
>being such a fucking cuck that you go after obese 2D women
holy shit
this is a lolicon website, you clearly don't belong here
>>336341470
Makes sense. I think the biggest problem I have with the game right now is how some of the ultimate abilities are implemented.
I really like the idea of them, but I always want them to require skill to use them proper. And this is somewhat true, since it's not like you are invincible and can just run over everyone, but like.. a skill that makes you not miss a single bullet? Seriously, I fucking hate that kind of shit. I'd really wish they'd went a more original route.
>>336341582
Honestly one of the worst things in the beta now. Everyone just picks their favorite and not try to have a balanced team.
>>336341609
I got you senpai.
Pick Torbjörn and spam turrets in safe places. Will open a breach and the reatards will go full on objective, since the enemies are not advancing.
>>336341664
TFW retarded team m8 go infront of the tank and die instantly to bastion and cry in team chat ,mfw I just picked Tracer and flanked him and killed him in a second.
Is it just me or most people dont understand how to play this game?
>>336341719
>mfw everyone picks their favorite
>we get a team of nothing but bastions and a mercy
>>336341192
She is my main, I got 10 to 12 kills and no deaths. Love her.
>>336341695
most of the ultis are pretty bad and easy to avoid I played last night 5 hours and was 0 times killed by Hanzo ulti, 0 times Mc Cree ulti and 1 time Soldiers ulti because he came from back.
Listen to the sound , everytime they use a ulti you will hear a loud sound.
>>336341670
DESU the omnic thing is really fucking heavy handed. Like they are robots that tried to kill EVERYOOOONE and we don't really know if they'll do it again.
I guess it's like normal race relations.
>do something you think should be play of the game

I do have to say I am liking the Hollywood map.

You have to pity Battleborn at this point.
A story about an Overwatch's character's ass has gotten more publicity than the whole of Battleborn.
>>336342570
Zarya is awesome, also she actually has some pretty fun voice clips.
I am not the best with her but Zarya is definitely fun to use in certain maps
Two questions that will decide whether I buy the game or not:
1) How many maps will it have on launch? Will future maps be free?
2) Have they said anything about map tools?
>>336342684
zarya in general is great if you have people who aren't retards, but right now that is never.

Yeah I noticed that she's actually racist against robots, she's basically the only bigoted character in the game
Blizzard basically made her be a total "fuck you" to SJWs and they don't even realize it because they don't actually play games
Bravo Blizzard
>>336342920
>>336336927
>mfw I didn't know Battleborn launched already
>>336342920
I feel like at this point Blizzard purposely used that whole ass thing to their favor, and all just to fuel the flames of popularity when they showcased that new pose
>>336342952
Zarya is just in a horrible spot right now since they just halved the duration of her shield without adding anything to compensate. She only works against stupid people that attack the bubble instead of waiting 2 seconds and preventing her from doing any significant damage.

Whew.
>>336342931
>1) How many maps will it have on launch? Will future maps be free?
There are like 8 or 9 maps right now, and all future maps and heroes will be free
And I have no idea on map tools, don't hold your breath on that one
>>336336927
Who in there right mind would release a game with Uncharted 4, Overwatch, and DOOM all coming out in the same month? Even if this game was good it would be DOA, there is no way that it can compete.
I like the butts but I would never even consider buying the game
>>336343046
I haven't played in a while, thought something felt off about the shield duration.
>>336342427

It's funny that you mention that, because I am actually kind of curious what the numbers were like before the whole Tracer Ass thing and after the reveal of her new pose
that ninja guy is hella annoying, im fine against everything else
the community is fucking toxic though, not even one day into the beta people cry all game about picks when I dont even know what half the maps looks like. I disabled the entirety of voicechat after like 2 games
>>336343296

Here's a source for you m8
I preordered the game some time ago.
Why do I not have access to the open beta right now?
so what are the chances that this fem-bot is actually Athena?

>>336343934
To make the enemy team move , I cant remember the last time I even used MC Cree ulti when I played in the closed beta.
People know what to do when they hear the sound starts playing.Hanzos ulti is more useful to make the enemy team spread out so your team can go in then to actually kill.
But to complain that the ultis are actually strong in killing people is just retarded.
How would I know when I can't play it
Is this an online arena shooter?

>>336343074
Funny thing is the original Borderlands was criticized for that same exact reason, it even released right alongside Uncharted 2, against all odds the unknown IP sold gangbusters.
I think Gearbox mistook dumb fucking luck for a repeatable strategy.
Battleborn however is going to flop harder than Evolve, calling it now.
At least Evolve wasn't released in the same month one of the titanshurr hurrof game development released a superficially similar game. At a cheaper price point. With no season pass.
>>336344473
I havent had a queue longer then 10 sec so far
im eu if that makes a difference
>>336344463
Rocket League is casual as fuck and has a skill ceiling miles above this shit
Also yes I can complain about that, fuck you. The OP is asking what I think of the game, and I answered that.
>tfw playing Zayra in a world where people instinctively shoot shields.
>tfw she's still garbage because her damage output is shit, even at 100%
>>336344430
Yeah sure maybe, but it's unsatisfying as fuck to get one shot across the map by a McCree or killed by a ulti using Widowmaker (which incidentally is probably the best ulti in the game)
If the game had no ultimates and just the regular abilities, I think it'd be a lot more fun
>>336344473
What mode are you playing ?
Depending on the mode you are playing you may have a hard time getting in to a specific game if the teams are mismatched number wise and if there's groups holding out more than single players
It may be best to change game modes and see if it works out for you
>>336344395
Where did I say about lying? Stop defending Blizzard.
>>336344386
>But they all do more stuff
Are you fucking serious with this comment? Did you actually play TF2? This whole game is TF2: deconstructed. There's barely any depth to individual because all characters fulfill very specific roles. That's why the game encourages you to constantly switch between heroes. It's obvious that Blizzard has done this on purpose. Team sizes are smaller and matches are a lot shorter.
And I'm not
Was thinking about buying this game for a friend
How the hell do you gift shit at battle.net?
>>336344543
Just play rocket bitch if you want to kill retards. Get above and behind them, most won't even see you.

>Rocket League

Compared to what? This statement is completely ridiculous, you're obviously clueless. I can't think of any non-fighting game that has been released lately with a higher skill ceiling than RL

I don't know, I like it personally, but who knows maybe Blizzard might do a generic, no specials mode or something for the people wanting something a bit harder. However from the way I understood it the idea of ultimates is that they are game changers and are used to help switch the tides at the last minute

just play ranked

This is true, I guess I am just more wondering when Blizaard will confirm it
>>336344774
Yes or to disrupt the team, Hanzos ulti is more useful in preventing the enemy team from capping a objective or pushing the cart then to use it for killing.
There is a reason why his ulti is so big and slow.

So switch to Widowmaker and reap the free kills? Or if you like to be flashy switch to Genji and reflect kill them all.

overwatch has been on full shill focus force for the last 2 weeks
they straight up make threads ordering people to buy the game / bait people with beta keys
i played the game and itsshit, it even belongs to the MOBA genre because of its issues
>>336344450
I HATE VIDEO GAMES
LMAObox for Overwatch when?
>>336339168
you do know that Overwatch has higher tickrate servers for competitive matches, right?
>>336344990
>implying shills waste their time on 4chan anymore
They really don't. Worked for one of the major publishers, it's all reddit nowadays
>>336345030
you're not really answering the question here
>>336344597
I'm just hitting quick match.
>>336344529
US here. Yes I do realize it's 5 am.
>>336345104
anon sorry but its too obvious and blatant for me to not know
seriously its like they wanted me to know they are shilling
they straight up get proven wrong and BTFO in most threads and they get back up with another thread
>>336344990
Seems like you didn't play the game if you call
it a moba so TF2 is now a moba too?
Also you are honestly surprised that people make threads about a blizzard games that has probably 1 of the biggest playerbases on the planet and they started a early access beta?
I dont like FPS games so its not my cup of tea but you are honestly delusional.
I go better play Factorio.

weird, maybe there's a server issue or something. I would still try a different mode to be safe though

>I'm an oldfag! Look at how oldfag I am!
Nobody gives a shit, anon. I've been here since 2004 too. It was a shit-tier fetish then and it's a shit-tier fetish now. Several of us migrated away from sites like somethingawful because of the circlejerk faggotry and their arbitrary politics, not because we wanted to jack off to porn about underage anime porn. Loli was a garbage fetish then, and it's a garbage fetish now. Take your shit opinions and irrelevant attempts at justification and fuck off back to >>/garbage/ where you belong.
>>336345104
This is actually quite true, I own a advertisement company and its not that much related to games, but the shilling is usually done on reddit and other webpages.
4chan is just too toxic and the threads dont stay long up to justify spending time to advertise it here.
>>336345212
That's just fanboyism. Trust me, big publishers do not give two flying shits about 4chan (anymore). Reddit is superior to them because they get stats about how many people they reach. 4chan is useless for gathering statistics. All branding and marketing is justified through statistics
>>336345260
i played most mobas already and they all have the same exact problems overwatch has
not only that but also the same community
>>336339441
They're going for something, that they can't match.
Also, It would be nice for all people if when they shot someone, they were actually shot, or evaded fire from someone else without dying behind a wall. Netcode is important.
>>336345440
its a team based shooter with objectives and not a moba
>>336345423
i believe undertale shill force is a onefanboyarmy kind of thing, but there is simply no way people aren't getting paid to shill uncharted, have you been to one of the threads? its ridicolous
>>336345543
>i didnt read your post: the reply
>>336345498
>>336339441
Actually ranked servers are 60 ticks , almost same like CS:go who has 64
BF4 lauched with 10 and got later upgraded to 30, CoD is also 30, titanfall was 20
story timing the reinhardt comic over here

>>336345580
You underestimate the power of fanboys. Most "shilling" is just fanboys, actual shills don't work as hard as people think.
Also, Undertale is a terrible example. That game has A LOT of determined fans. It's a modern classic with a gigantic cult following. I don't see how you're surprised about this
>>336345649
you just said you played many mobas and literally nothing more , no examples or showing me what related things a game like Dota 2 and Overwatch have
>>336345878
The only thing Overwatch has in common with MOBAs is that each character has an ultimate ability, and that the games promote teamwork
>>336339094
It charges up to a certain amount of damage. Red skulls indicate when you left click to fire, they will die. Otherwise it just does damage. Using it from a location where you're not very visible and when the enemy team just suffered damage, you can get a full TPK off it, assuming they don't dive for cover. If you don't have targets, right click to cancel and you at least retain 50% of the charge. I sometimes use it just to get the enemy team to scatter or back off the point while my teammates reposition.
>playing Reinhardt. Spot other Reinhardt. Charge.
>Other Reinhardt charges.
>Hit each and knock each other to the ground.
>Get up and start swinging hammers at each other.
>One must go down.

>>336344182
That's too bad, some of these characters look like they could get together for a ratchet and clank'ish type game, a real adventure.
>>336346487
Reinhardt is the biggest bro in game
>mfw him and Lucio discuss their taste in music during the pre-game banter
Someone kind enough to gift one PS4 key?
>>336344006
Just about everyone else is more fun, is why
>>336346597
Reinhardt is also a fan of D.Va and requests her autograph.
