>>336663340
they aren't really that comparable Honestly.

TF2 is at it's core, an FPS game. The original Concept for TF in general was Quake with classes.

Overwatch is more or less like a MOBA boiled down to it's core (huge variety of heros with unique abilities in a theme setting) and then polished to be more like games like Smite.

But if you were to compare the two, TF2 would surely win, simply because it's a source game, meaning it's fully moddable and has a huge community that creates free content for it 24/7 (maps, reskins, Source Filmmaker Short Films, etc)

this is just a personal preference for me, but unless Overwatch offers this much as well, TF2 will always be better

Overwatch doesn't even have that

One is a game with a careful amount of its pull being weighted behind a well-designed artstyle, the other is a Blizzard game.

TF2 doesn't revolve around cooldowns, its map design is much better, the classes are faster by default.

Overwatch is more recent, some classes have good vertical mobility (but the poorly designed maps don't use it very much) and looks better.

TF2 wins imo. Spy is so much more fun and comfy than the retarded grim reaper that moves very awkwardly.

Simple you can compare them at release time.

>>
>>336663340
Let me get this shit straight, Overwatch and TF2 are both fun games but Overwatch being an upgrade/improvement to TF2? Now that's some bullshit soup served cold. Especially on the price. Overwatch does not deserve $40. Shit's reasonable around $20-30.

In TF2, all weapons has that "feeling" of actually using a weapon. Overwatch's weapon doesn't feel like your actually using a weapon. I can't pinpoint on what to be exact but Overwatch's weapons feels shallow overall.

In Overwatch, almost everyone and their mother has some sort of barrier and/or heal dedicated button. That shit's neat and all but there are some characters that can go better if they have something else instead of a barrier and/or heal.

TF2 has custom maps and servers. Overwatch does not.

TF2 can support more than 12 players per server/map. Overwatch does not. It's kind of a personal thing but for what it is, I enjoy FPS games more when it can support more than 12 players.

TF2 characters are, surprisingly, more memorable and quotable then majority, hell even all of the casts in Overwatch. I find a drunk one-eyed Scottish black man more memorable then some girl who was a pro player (like seriously what) and a dwarf that I had high hopes of being a badass.

TF2 has more reasonable things/consequences/etc then in Overwatch. For example, every single character in TF2 has limited ammo. Overwatch does not. The heavy requires to sacrifice his shotgun for an item to give him some HP boosts. Overwatch's characters doesn't have to sacrifice that much to get HP.

Once again, Overwatch is a fun game, but I just really find TF2 to be more enjoyable.

TF2 is better in almost every single way. The only thing Overwatch has over it is that there's more counters to bullshit tactics like Pharah players jumping on a building and spamming rockets. Otherwise, the gameplay doesn't have a lot of depth and every character is a blatant ripoff or a bland archetype that does nothing new, and every one of them is devoid of any personality.
>>
>>336668007
you speak as if TF2 invented anything. It has an awesome style but the core mechanics of the classes are all archetypes and nothing new... save for the bullshit they added with updates such and melee demos and dead ringer spies.
>>
Can someone tell me why I would waste $60 on a more brain-dead version of TF2 when I can play TF2 for free?
>>
>>336668096
TF2 had better designed and more recognizable characters and archetypes, and it had a nice, cohesive artstyle (Until hats, of course). Everyone looked like they belonged to the same game. Everyone in Overwatch look like they were taken from different games and put in the same game.
>>
>>336668163
There's no reason. I played it in beta and it's somewhat fun, but I wouldn't drop even 30 dollars on it. If it were on steam, I'd buy it on a sale for 15 dollarydoos.
>>
Overwatch just needs:
>Faster movement for everyone (except Tracer)
>Dedicated servers (no idea if they've announced this)
>Mod support

And it would probably be a great game. It'd also be nice if Genji's melee actually did any worthwhile damage.

I've barely played either (I only fucked around in trade servers in TF2) but Overwatch has been more enjoyable from the limited time I've spent with it.

I have to admit it feels simpler/easier and that's a contributor. OW might become more popular with the mass casual audience than TF2.

MOBA means "Multiplayer online battle arena". That description could be applied for almost any multiplayer game of any genre.
People just use this word for games like Dota or LoL.

What's this talk about modern tf2 being worse than old tf2?

- No unlockable weapons are overpowered. They added variety to the game and stock weapons are still great.
- Game was balanced and improved several times.
- Cosmetics are optional and don't influence gameplay. Don't be a retard.

It's pretty much entirely because the game is almost entirely populated by Russian children and retards who care more about cosmetics/trading/"im friendly"ing than playing the game
>>
>>336677351
>no unlockable weapons are overpowered
Depends on the context. If we're talking competitive 6's or something, things like the GRU are banned since they give the Heavy as much mobility as most other classes, removing the whole "Heavy is slow" downside and slowing down the game dramatically as the team can just stall mid.
In pubs though, yeah it doesn't fucking matter.

TF2 has a bunch of classes with great synergy between them, you're playing as part of a team.

I think they went the wrong way about it when they added the domination lines. It made sense for the Scout to be a complete asshole but then they applied it to everybody else. It was kind of jarring when the Spy started shouting and insulting people as it seemed contrary to how the character was portrayed in stock voicefiles.

I think they're both fun. Some of you guys are just sad, cynical husks who have such a skewed idea of fun you wouldn't even recognize it if it came up and fucked your mouth.

Anyway, to each their own. I'm going to enjoy Overwatch for the rest of the open beta so I don't have to drop $40 on it. In that regard, that's pretty much Overwatch's only real flaw: exploring everything the game has to show you doesn't take particularly long.

Overwatch is launching with more maps and characters than TF2 originally had.

Overwatch has beautiful females which is refeshing. TF2 was a sausage fest.

All new maps, modes, and future heros will be free in Overwatch. TF2 never added more characters.

Cosmetic items will be DLC but can still be attained through rng loot boxes after you level up.

Overwatch basically has everything you want.

TF2, Overwatch has is really easy to get into with it's abundance of automatic weapons and generous hitboxes. It'll be a nice distraction but it seems like one of those games that gets less fun the better you get at it.

Maps and modes were free in tf2 even if you brought it for $20 at release. TF2 doesn't need new characters, they give tools to the current ones.

>>336679751
This nigga gets it. TF2 feels like a cohesive world. Overwatch is a fucking mess of ideas for characters that might look cool and flashy, despite the fact that they look like they belong to different universes or periods of time.

Also, every class in TF2 feels like it has a very specific function in the group, and the entire character design revolves around it. In Overwatch, there are so many characters that do exactly the same with different animations that only makes it harder to balance.

The map editor for SC2 was pretty good. Not a love of people use it these days though with the community shrinking down some much since everyone left for other games

It does seem like the amount the community contributes to blizz games has dropped like a rock though since they got bought out by Activision. Maybe this will be a good chance to try and re-invigorate that aspect? It certianly seems like this game is breathing fresh life into a company that became way to stagnant for it's own good.

To be honest i'm kind of sick of the MOBA formula that has been going on for a while

After LoL and Dota2 it all starts to blend together for me, they almost feel like the same game with different camera angles and some little mechanics taken off or some put in

"PICK BETWEEN 250 CHAMPIONS/HEROES/WHATEVER (Probably 225 of those 250 are stereotypes) AND USE YOUR ABILITIES (Usually 4 with one of them being your ultimate and that one champion that breaks this rule by having more than 4) TO WIN THE MATCH!"

Let's be honest, OW exists to this day because the MOBA market is still hot i guess and they pretty much ruined TF2
>>
How do you manage to create so many characters completely devoid of personality?

Blizzard really dropped the ball here
>>
>>336679234
TF2 has a more even pace to it. Overwatch has much fewer weapons per characters but gives them abilities with cooldowns instead.

Only thing tf2 had like this at all was the Uber charge. It seems like Overwatch is trying to force a lot of this "super feel good moments" onto every character at the cost of more frequent and active gameplay. We'll see if it takes, but I'm guessing after a few months people will get tired of games boiling down to which teams can coordinate ults better.

It does seem that blizz is more interested in doing match making and ranked play than tf2 out of the bat though which is a plus

I don't know people keep comparing OW to MOBAs. The only thing they have in common are ults. The rest is standard, class based objective fps.
>>
>>336682543
k/d fags are awful but the game hiding statistics and especially hiding damage numbers is the worst
>>
>>336682469
They drew in a lot of MOBA elements, so it doesn't surprise me that the would think that "killstealing" would be a toxic element the game would want to avoid, never mind the fact that it has no bearing on any kind of score in the game
>>
>>336682696
It sure looks like it took some things from MOBAs

Wasn't the game advertised as "Blizzard's new MOBA" when OW was announced?
>>
>>336682768
I just want to see statistics. I like to see how many dudes I killed, how many assists I got, how many times I died, how much damage I deal per shot to figure out if this weapon is worth using at long range but I don't get that. K/D and ASSFAGGOTS fans are the worst but that shouldn't make it impossible to see my stats

Mei's is if you don't move
Bastion's is if you can't move.
Dva's is if you can't move
Junkrat's is dangerous but can be avoided by jumping on something.
Most are easily avoidable because of the sound cues for the ultimate, ie if you hear "A IT'S HIGH NOON!" just take cover.
Basically that guy is retarded.
>>
>>336682997
>Nobody minds hearing characters trashtalk you
You may not, but it definitely triggers people. Some people can't deal with an achievement popping up in a single player game after dying to a boss called "Consult an FAQ already" because they missed an obvious as fuck item, I can't imagine how fucking booty blasted they would get if they died in a multiplayer game and the character talked shit.
>>
>>336682696
its mostly aesthetically similar to a MOBA. There is lore between the characters that nobody cares about, each character is designed to be as lolrandum and youneek as possible and there are ultimate abilities that can flip a fight.
>>
>>336682702

>play support
>get a poor k/d
>somehow that means I'm a terrible player and other players will mock you for it

The numbers shown in OW are relevant. Fuck k/d faggots, hate those fuckers. If they can't see the numbers they don't go as apeshit as much.

>>336683295

His flashbang isn't the problem, it's entirely his fan the hammer that's fucked.

It has stupid good accuracy for something that can deal about 400 damage in a second, there's almost no point in left clicking when someone's close if you can just mulch them with right click.
With Mei you have to freeze someone, line up the headshot, then icicle. There's an element of aim involved even in shooting someone that's stunned. With Mcree you're not flashbanging and lining up a headshot, you just right click and win. It's definitely the most unbalanced thing in the game at the moment, the only thing that will replace it at this rate is when good Widows learn to aim and turn it into "Highlander: Pocket the Sniper" mode.
>>
So its been years since I've played an fps like this, and decided to try out the beta. After a dozen matches of people never choosing tanks or support, no one pushing objectives or defending anything, I'm wondering if its the game thats shit or just the jackoffs playing it because its a free beta.
>>
>>336676946
So Call of Duty is a Moba?

This logic is retarded. Overwatch is a Team Based multiplayer shooter that happens to have abilities on cooldowns. That's it.

>>336663340
I don't really think you can even compare the two. Ones an expensive mlp furry hat simulator and the other is a arena shooter

I see people going for objectives and using tank classes. Few pick Support, but aside from that I'd say it's been a very solid experience.

Why is the concept of a class based shooter so hard to understand? I'm not saying that the game has good balance but 1 on 1 encounters were never supposed to be balanced in the first place.

Yes McCree/Tracer/Edgelord can easily fuck you up in a tight closed space. Fuck, the guy is a cowboy, his whole fucking theme is duels. You know why? Because picking out faggots one by one is their primary fucking purpose. It is supposed to take you way more skill to fuck him up in his own field.

How is it a bad thing in a context of the game? How does striping them off of their "stupid" abilities constitute for a better game design when it merely makes them useless garbage.

Jesus fuck, hell.

TF2 wins against Overwatch, since there is no problem with "abilities"

In TF2 you don't have retarded ultimate abilities that just win the game when you press q. TF2 has characters with roles that do specific things. Overwatch does not have this. Overwatch is more comparable to an ASSFAGGOTS game in that it is completely retarded and that you just wait for ulti to win.

It's a bad thing because it feels fucking lame to engage him, get stunned and have him shit out damage faster than anyone else without even so much as trying.
At least Tracer and Edgelord have to worry even just a little bit about shooting a moving target, and their opponent fighting back.
Would forcing him to actually aim for headshots at close range for extreme burst damage really make him useless garbage?

Medic i generally considered to be the most powerful class in TF2 by most higher end players, and ubers are a massive part of that. The details of how they function might be slightly different, but none the less its a very powerful ability that you have to actively charge over time and has a massive impact on the game.

Of course OW goes to the next level by giving everyone an ult, but the flow of gameplay in TF2 was already decided by ubers more often than not (if you arent playing with shit players at least) so bitching about them in OW seems a bit off. I get why you dont like the concept of ults in a shooter, but in reality you have been playing with them for years in TF2

You kill a medic you erase all of his progress. Ubers just make you invulnerable to damage, they can still be dealt with. It isn't an auto aim button.
>>
>>336687534
yeah, and i have seen plenty of people fuck up ults in OW over the last day. Of course everything looks OP in the trailers, but in practice theres a lot of counterplay.

For example, it takes some perfect timing to get Pharah's missle barrage to kill more than 1 or maybe 2 people. She is vulnerable up in the air holding stil while doing it andit really isnt as crushinyl powerful as it looks. Tanks live through it all the time, and if suishes are fast enough to get under cover they live a decent bit of the time as well.

Its not a simple as get ult=kill whole team.

But it's not just against tanks, and it's not just at close range. Sure he excels at close range, but he's perfectly capable of murder at mid to mid-far range too - a range that Tracer and Reaper only wish they could really deal damage at.
The only thing they have over McCree is movement options, but what are they gonna do, move closer to him to his more optimal range, just so they stand a fighting chance?
Remember when they had to give McCree's bullets drop-off damage because he was just a better sniper than Widow? It's pretty astounding what he can do if your aim is worth a damn.

I don't like the TF2 comparison very much, and frankly I really wish everyone would stop making it.

TF2 was a fraction of the price, or free with the Orange Box, depending on how you purchased it.

TF2 had an easy solution to the sniper problem of getting your dick blown off before you even knew what happened, which OW for some reason refuses to learn from.

TF2 lets you reasonably play the class you want to play instead of shuffling every death because your retarded teammates keep switching from their vital tank/support/dps class and you have to switch to compensate for their stupidity.

TF2 has actually well designed maps that aren't all just "large tunnel with 1-2 small corridors on the side".

TF2 has big enough teams to let everyone seamlessly go different routes and do their own thing, whereas even two people splitting off to flank in OW could fuck your entire team over. This isn't even a complaint, it's just a game design choice, but I can tell you which I prefer when playing with randos.

TF2 has more to the classes balance than "Oh, I killed him so he switched to the guy that rapes the class I'm playing. ok."

TF2 doesn't give half the classes instant-kills, and then expect you to spend eighty five hundred years walking back to the actual game.

TF2 has more to it than just GET THE FUCKING OBJECTIVE SIT ON THE OBJECTIVE HERE'S THE OBJECTIVE POINT YEAH- and there is more ways to help your team organically than just sitting on the objective. Spy is basically and entire class about that- god knows he shouldn't be sitting on a capture point shooting people.

TF2's respawn time and map design lead to fights throughout the entire map instead of it being localized right in the center with the occasional spawn camp if one team is getting stomped. OW half the maps feel lifeless walking through them.

TF2's characters have tons of dialogue and personality, even at launch. OW so far, not so much.
>>
>>336688398
If you have good aim and aimbot doesnt mean too much (especially since the while the aimbot is active you are incapable of headshotting meaning that if you are a really good shot it makes your dps go down), but give some skilled players a few moments of invulnerability and they will wreck some shit.

You are used to the uber since its been around for so long and you have played with it enough to know its not blaringly OP and has counterplay. Try and take a step back and realize that in every traditional sense the Uber is an ult, and thats not a bad thing.
>>
>>336688027
Except in OW you constantly have "ubers", including shit that insta-kills without taking any input from the player, for every single class, all the time. The progress towards it isn't even gone when someone dies, so they can just waltz back and use it then. TF2 is a game where shooting the Medic is so important because of his healing and the possibility of an Ubercharge - in OW those kinds of picks don't really matter because you'll be back up in 5 seconds with your charge intact anyway.

Yes, Medics decide the gameflow in TF2 6v6, but as the only class that can do so picks are way more important and good killing is actually rewarded.

You are right that reseting on death is a difference, but to imply that killing a mercy or lucio isnt important just because it wont reset their ult charge is nonsense. Killing the support is the first step to taking an objective and they are almost always the highest priority targets.

I dont even have a real arguement here, just given the hours that ive played so far you are simply incorrect

When I play Overwatch, I feel that a majority of my kills are not earned. It feels like I just get kills easily with zero effort and it seems to be the same way for everyone else.

My problem is the broken abilities that are basic insta-win buttons, like the literal aimbot one character has. That's so stupid, and how is it fun to fight against that? The worst part is that it has no downside whatsoever.

Compare that to the aimbot in TF2, aka a sentry. You can't move it while it's firing, it's easily killed due to falloff damage not applying to it, and needs to be upgraded twice just to be more effective.

Compare that and tell me why Overwatch somehow takes "more skill".

If you like it so far stick with it and have fun, and hope blizzard makes it worthwhile over time, if you don't like it go play your dead hat collecting simulator and try it again later when it's had a chance to be worked on some more. Who knows, you might like it then. Idiots.

Team Fortress 2 has always been a mediocre game.

Based on what I've played, Overwatch is far better.

Why is Symmetra listed under Support and not Defense?

Her tiny ass shields do jack shit compared to the actual healing from the other supports. Maybe they should let you change your turrets from damage mode on enemies to a heal mode on allies.

And having a teleporter be a fucking ultimate is retarded. No wonder it takes forever to get back to the frontlines.

Fun

Jokes aside, it's a giggle with friends, much like Boredomlands, but with only a few abilities and weapons per each class allows for less variability than Tf2's system. If you can find your niche with your class against the enemy team, you can pretty much massacre everyone.

Or just pick one of the following 3 in defense: Snow Chink, murderbot or börk

Overwatch let's you kill people in a different way than TF2. People who've been playing TF2 for over a thousand hours have been killing people in the same way for so long the only reasonable explanation is saying they have autism.

At least in OW the majority goes for the objective and just the f2p think it still is deathmatch but hopefully those will go away after the open beta.

Because Blizzard hires different teams for their projects. The niggs that did WOW are not working on OW.

Some people are move from team to team but for the most part the devs are different.

That's why you see much more care on Overwatch than on SC2 or WoW.

When was the last time you saw an open beta with all content unlocked?

/v/ usually bitches about not seeing demos and the OW team decided to let everyone try the full game in advance.

I have faith in the OW team, not on Blizzard itself.
>>
Listen overwatchers i know you'd get mad if your 40$ investment died in 2 months, but think of it like you had fun for 2 months and only paid 40$. sounds pretty good to me.

What care? It's completely brainless. Also the niggs that did WoW don't work at Blizzard anymore.

>>336663340
overwatch has a very low skillcap per player (disgusting aim assist, revives make player deaths less costly to the team, press x to rocketjump, wallhack ultimates, etc.) and instead revolves around playing the right hero at the right time.

tf2 is much more focused on player skill and aim rather than cooldown abilities, most of which are gimmick weapons or ubercharge.

The fast characters in overwatch are so much more fun. Not even heavy lumbers as slow as the heavy characters in overwatch.

Pharah's whole schtick is going high and flanking the enemy, and she has the movement options to do it. Junkrat can do this, too, but most people play him like Demoman because he can scatter the enemy front line.

Who cares? Its an objective-based game, not TDM.

Its not press q to win, every ult is avoidable/counterable if you have a lick of sense

>6v6 is small, would be more fun 12v12

At that point, the game actually WOULD be press q to win as there'd be ultimates flying around 24/7. 6/6 is the best balance for this game.

I agree for pub servers, however private/custom lobbies are the same tickrate as TF2

Well tf2 had a lot going for it but it took a large hit after it went f2p with the player base awfulness increasing in number, and only any of them git gud, others just right down cheated or polluted the playerbase.

Trading was entertaining but between Valve enforcing regional pricing, and limits and the metal dollar price ratio jumping off a cliff there was nothing good about it. Competitive mode arrived 6 years too late.

Overwatch is a novelty but it is overly gimmicky.

What kill it for me was the increasing amount of bad players, and pub stompers. It happened what happens in every MP game, after a certain point the only way to increase your skill is to play in groups and have your social life based on it, so you can forget about just "jumping into a match" and have fun. Either you commit yourself to the game or stop being faglord and quit it.

MVM was fun...for a month, too bad new maps were never released further on, and after a while it became a grind run with Ruskies grinding for gold.

Trading was the final aspect, getting a key after a couple of good trades with a free item was rewarding, but then the ratio jumped, games were regionally locked, and there was no point to it anymore.

I like TF2 more because currently the Scout is more fun to play than anything in OW. The reason for this is that the Scout's skill ceiling is really high.

Overwatch right now is a shitfest of zero teamwork and it seems like the rounds are really short (even when the teams are even).

There slightly different but I would say both a good. I don't like the idea of insta kill ults though. I'd rather every character just have an extra skill instead.

Like them or not, hats are how people personalized the characters to make them belong to "them". Sure, it robs the game of its original theme but it doesn't hurt that much and a lot of people like hats.

Meanwhile, Overwatch characters are a mess out of the box, and it's not even so you can personalize them. It's just because they're badly designed in the first place.

And bottom line about the waifus: one cartoon ass is as good as the next. If you can't give those characters any soul or humanity then who gives a single fuck.

I still really like TF2 even if the weapon balancing in the last few years has gone batshit crazy and reworking some sidegrades to the point where they function as brand new weapons. I dislike several things they have done in the last few years (Natasha making Heavy even tankier, Pyro getting a shitload of nerfs that were outright overkill, Quickiebomb Launcher's existence, focus on game modes with extremely finite novelty, etc.) but at it's core it's still a decent game and I only really wish that Valve actually fucking listens to their community. It should not have taken that long for LMAOBOX to be VAC-detectable and it feels like they're giving Scout a fuckton of indirect buffs by giving several classes nerfs that directly make their matchup against Scout significantly worse.

>TF2 is winning

All the more proof that /v/ is filled with contrarians.
TF2 is fucking dead, it's time to move on.

I've got zero interest in this game and I think it looks like a cheap pixar movie clone of tf2.

But I'm gonna try it out before I start shitposting, but sit tight cus I'll be back in full force

I don't think you know a thing about waifus, bro. One "cartoon ass" is not as good as the next. Some of these characters actually have a good deal of soul. TF2 on the other hand is 10 years old and had plenty of time to flesh out it's characters.

overwatch is more polished, but tf2 is more fun to play
skill ceiling is higher for individual skill, while still staying class based

overwatch skill ceiling is pretty low, but its a fun fuck around game

I like the items that keep the overall ascetic of the original characters.

TF2 is a mechanically sound FPS

Overwatch is a waifu shooter. Blizzard should stick to MMOs

tf2 has no shock and awe to it either. It's just as simple and easy to pick up. Only a couple of the new game modes (with grapple hooks) take more skill to be good at.

tf2 is still the same game, you're just lazy

The memories. I wish they would make a new one, but people would just let it die again. There is no hope.
Maybe one day Valve decides to be a good guy again and adds objectives to TF2.
