Because it handles and feels like shit. For example, I was playing widowmaker, and some Hanzo was peeking a corner, going back and forth. I'd shoot exactly where he was, while he was peeking, and not registering shots. Then, I shot about a second before he would peek out, and it finally registered, killing him.

Playing with Roadhog, you can feel it too when an enemy is squirming around trying to get away after you hook them, your shots are having trouble registering and dealing proper amount of damage because they're moving around so much.

I hate LoL, it's a shit game but I can see why normies like watching it. It's slow so they can see and understand what happens, it's important for them. Usually the slower the better for these kids, see CS GO.

In OW keeping track will be complicated because you can't see all 6 players's vision at the same time, so you'll miss tons of stuff.

Competitive anything is a joke. Some small community-built tourneys are fine, but shouting "VIDEO GAMES NEED TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY" with this E-sports garbage is just plain cringe-worthy.

Christ, real sports shouldn't even be taken seriously. They're both nothing but gigantic ad events. With real sports, it's just one big event selling every product willing to "sponsor" shit, or pay for commercial air time during games, with E-sports the game IS the product being sold.

But it's whatever, other people enjoy this crap, so good for them.
>>
It's no less of a joke than smash 4 or heathstone or halo or league of legends or the vast majority of 'esports' which are either marketing stunts funded and ran literally by the developers themselves, or just plain retarded and unfit for competitive play in general, only propped up by autistic fans who don't know any better.

Usually both. Actual competitive games struggle to survive these days because they are too inaccessible to casual plebs who are the people who would put money into it.
>>
>>336943203
What did you expect? It's the same why tf2 has almost nothing competetive. Games that are terrible from a viewers point of perspective will not make it. It's just too much going on to make a good commentary about something like that. The top viewed games are all slower and more organized than this game

Purely off the to of my head

Starcraft
Supcom
total annihilation
Quake
1.6
Most fighting games
I would even say DotA1/2 as well though I am pretty confident I'm going to get shit for it

The point is that all of these games were not deliberately dumbed down for retards, they were not 'designed' to be competitive, they developed competitive scenes because they were competitive.

Unlike modern E-sports, where some suits decided before a game was even released that it was going to be 'competitive' and just threw money at it until enough retards believed it was true. Starcraft 2, League of Legends, Hearthstone and honestly even DotA2 are very guilty of this.

I agree with you, but want to add that better graphics did not improve the gameplay. For example, I am having a much harder time to see shit in cs:go compared to the 1.6 maps that don't have a ton of objectes on them.
Or I'm just getting old and my eyes suck.
>>
>>336948731
You get hardly any because any games in those genres have the devs keenly aware of E-sports and so they design them with the average E-sports retard in mind, and dumb it down to hell and avoid mechanics that make it clear you're a shitter. It's very obvious overwatch was designed like this.

'Emergent' competitive scenes like that hardly exist now outside of very niche games like Catherine and indie stuff.

There isn't much of a skill ceiling in this game. Aside from just a few heroes, the game is just about timing your abilities correctly or positioning well.

Hearthstone is like wrestling, fun if you watch it for the story and pretend it's an actual competition dsepite knowing it's ful of shit.

SC2 is like track&field, pure test of skill but ultimately not fun to watch more than once a year.

ASSFAGGOTS are like football, nerds will hate but you can't deny the popularity and the dosh associated with being good.

Overwatch is in some weird place in between most casualized ASSFAGGOTS and HS with less potential for storylines. It's like trying to sell laser tag as an olympic sport.

Blizzard is already struggling to find a place in the current competitive scene. A lot of what isn't seen right now is the attempt at pushing Overwatch into different tournaments. Blizzard wanted Overwatch at Dreamhack, but didn't want to actually support it, as in put the money forth to host a tournament. Razer stepped up and it's been largely considered a joke.

ESL refuses to promote it because Blizzard won't allow custom servers for match ups. You have to use a specific client from Blizzard themselves with their own tailored ruleset. The same goes for CEVO, no interest in promoting if they can't have any control over the game. As far as the game goes, Dreamhack showed there was no energy in the crowd this weekend for the game. Ultimates don't bring out that same feeling that you see in Dota and League, where they take (usually) some form of coordination to pull off. Overwatch is just the epitome of "Press a button and something awesome happens!' With 'awesome' being subjective.

It's all on Blizzard right now, but the E-Sports scene largely isn't interested in it because it doesn't make for good entertainment to watch. It's simply not exciting, as we've seen this weekend.

Overwatch is pretty much what DOTA2 would be as an FPS, except that strong skills that have too much impact on the game flow has no place in a FPS where it's supposed to be about precison.

I supposed it should be considered as a new type of MOBA instead of a TF2-like, but I'm pretty mad they went too far with the hero-shooter archetype.

Do you know why sc2 sucked? Because it was literally designed from the ground up to be ESPORTS.

WoW arena was literally an afterthought. Then it started becoming popular. Then they started streaming tourneys and it was fun, but then they started balancing shit in WoW for pvp and it went to shit.

Wc3 and BW were good. Diablo 2 pvp is retarded. Diablo 3 lol.

Blizzard should just make a game and thats it. Let the community find shit out and turn it into an esport organically instead of just being some crappy MADE FOR ESPORTS shit like sc2 was.

You can have competitive games without taking them seriously. When people play games online they're normally playing to win and there's nothing wrong with having a competitive mindset while playing. As long as you're not acting autistic when you close the game you're fine. Almost no organization is trying to push for it to be some hardcore sport.
>>
>>336951643
Blizzard need to get their heads out of e-sports.
Everything they make recently is tailored to it and suffers because of it.

You can't push e-sports, it will happen and you facilitate that transition but youc ertainly can't force it. Blizzard will continue to try though.

Hearthstone is absolutely awful. There's like 4 net decks played so as soon as you see someone's character or their initial cards you already know what deck they're playing. If you're at that high of a level then for the most part your turns won't be misplays and/or based on flawed logic so it comes down solely to card draw rng.

That's pretty much in every game where turbonerds find the most efficient way to win. Everyone used the m4,ak47 and awp in cs, nobody complained. It just gets boring in for example league where the same 15 champions getting picked and banned when there are over 100 in total

My biggest issue is that it's pretty obvious the game was designed and balanced around having just one person playing one character per team, not this double Lucio, double Reaper, double whatever shit that plagues matches right now. Every character has a hard counter of sorts, but with how maps are set up, you can actively ignore having to worry about those counters if you stack certain characters. Like double Bastion with a Lucio and Mercy on Payload defense. It's so silly! I just don't understand how this is allowed.

They never actually find the most efficient strategies though. It's all just one big meme. One group of people start doing a certain strat and then other people copy it thinking they need to in order to be competitive.

If a game is actually competitive, it has players good enough at the top that they come up with their own strategies. I

it works out because it's organized chaos. heroes don't have strict archetypes they are pigeonholed too. Some of their kits don't even jive with themselves, but when on the correct team it makes a world of difference.

So it's an infinitely deep game where the amount of skill you can gain never ends?
Amazing!

Sick of retards like you talking about things with words and terms they don't understand.

You probably haven't even played the game. Maybe one match.

I agree with you to some extent, making every hero viable might not be the best design.
The problem is that Blizzard are trying to have it all. Again.

HotS was noob friendly - nobody fucking cares, the e-sport for the game is practically dead. It became a "okay guys let's cool down with a round of hots before hopping back to league/dota again" kind of game.

OW is even more noob friendly - it's absolutely fucking horrid to watch and sometimes even more horrid to play, esports scene is even dead before the game comes out.

Blizzard needs to stop sniffing their own farts and let the community decide what they want.
Valve in particular has picked up on this pretty quickly and are dominating e-sports so fucking hard.

They've been going on since the first weeks of closed beta, months ago
The meta have been constantly shifting as the players learned more and more about the games and maps, with some characters going from tier 1, to tier 10, to 1 again.

The pros don't know what they're doing yet, essentially

I played the game, in fact I have preordered it.
I really like it, but in a "easy and mindless fun" kind of way, it's clearly not a game made to be tryharded on.

Don't get me wrong: I'm not saying the game is easy or any CoD fag can start a game and start mastering every character right off the bat, but it's incredibly easy (Compared to other FPSs) to reach a point where you become very efficient with your char. I played tons of hours of CS and Q3 I can tell you these two games alone needs a lifetime to be just "very good" at. In OW you just need to not be completely retarded and some basic motor skills.

It's a very nice pub game to have great fun with friends, and everybody can get his 1 minute easily.
It's just a bad esport game, and that's perfectly fine.

They really oughta remove McCree's stun. Turn it into a smoke bomb that obscures the enemy's vision or something.

>"LOL YOU MAD?????"

No. I've abused it a bunch today and it's just too damn easy to the point where it isn't even worth playing other classes. You just E and then right-click and they die, then you back off and do it again when your stun is up again.

>>336948752
since dota 2 plays nearly identical to dota 1, people already knew dota 2 would be competitive, it wasn't money tricking people into thinking something about a game that already existed.

Sure the money brought attention to it, but it's not like it was used as a smokescreen like it was with hearthstone.

It's retarded. Dumb game modes. Dumb classes. If valve released a team fortress 3 on source 2 or if they even supported Team Fortress 2 6's competitive scene then that game is bar none probably the best team shooter out there. But nope Valve dont give a shit. Now Blizzard is making a shit version of TF2 and people are some how so amazed by it.

There is zero complexity to it. There is barely even a burden of knowledge to it that would come with having 21 different heroes in dota because every hero in Overwatch can only do the one set of skills. You'll never find a 76 rocket jumping into your face because blizzard simply won't allow it.

I think you are mistaking Dota 2 for MOBA. With all due apologies, please refrain from doing this.

>>336957434
Except that's really what it all boils down to. When pressing Q literally gives you a 100% stick aimbot there's really not much skill involved in that epic team-wiping play.

Nonsense?

That's a bad example.

You use dive so you can get firespirits on people more easily.

Fire spirits makes it so that people can't kill supernova easily.

dive also lets you position super nova correctly.

The long cooldown on abilities also synergizes with supernova because of the refresh.

Arc warden is more of what you are talking about, he's played like a farmer but has a trap ability and a single target slow/DoT.

Nobody is saying anything about dota-likes. We're just saying that moba is and always has been a shitty acronym for those types of games. That's why people made ASSFAGGOTS. I prefer dota-likes though.
