So Blizzard announced that these are the most popular heros for each class in the beta. Does this apply to you?

Nah

>D.Va

Probably Pharah, Mei, Reinhardt and Symmetra for me. I don't think I picked Widow a single time during this beta and I didn't really like Mercy at first.

Reinhardt isn't even hard if you're D.va. Just maintain a distance and charge him and fly away when you can

I understand why she's picked a lot. Every time a team picks heros, the balance hints always asks for a sniper and she's the only sniper.

>Soldier 76

His popularity is understandable. He's the closest to a traditional shooter and he heals himself. He's a safe choice for new players.

>Widowmaker

Snipers have always been popular in shooters. Being able to kill from a distance is fun and you can get a ton of kills if you pick the right spots. Not surprising she's used a lot.

>Reinheardt

I don't like using him but he's so important to a team. I've had garbage teams who couldn't kill anything but we still pushed because of Reinheardt.

>Mercy

I'm surprised she's used more than Lucio. Maybe people don't understand that Lucio is better in almost every way. You can get more kills, more overall healing, and more movement speed than Mercy.

I'm actually surprised offense wasn't McCree.

Not surprising that the sniper character was the most picked defense, especially when you consider that she's game-breaking as fuck due to her retardedly high damage output and how comically easy it is to snipe in OW.
>>
>>338298059

>76

nope. but i did play him once

>widowmaker

i think. I didn't really play a lot of defensive heroes during the beta but i did play all of them at least twice

>reinhardt

nope. tied between winston and zarya

>mercy

yes, because people tend to not stick near the Lucio even though his buffs are AoE.
>>
>>338300070
He was trying to emulate the crazy frog but that he'd involve Joel for no reason.
>>
I played Mercy quite a bit. I also played Reinhardt, but I didn't pick him up until the beta was almost over. I didn't find 76 that interesting and I can't snipe to save my life so I didn't play Widowmaker at all.
>>
>>338298059
McCree, Torb, Winston, Zenyatta for me.

I'm not any good at Support though.

Replace Widowmaker with Junkrat and yeah, that's me

From my experience in the beta, there were a lot of people doing quickplay in groups, so it was super common to see at least one Mercy on each team with a designated player they would pocket.

But Mercy can raise the dead, negating literally everything the enemy does

Don't forget that the charge builds so fast it might as well do 150 every shot. It's like you're playing Spiderman wielding an AWP.

They really need to rework her. I have never seens a sniper that is THAT forgiving to play in any FPS. I know you can just jump and fuck her up as winston or whatever but holy fuck getting killed by a single body shot that took 2 seconds to charge is not fun at all to play against.

Clint Eastwood

Reinhardt and borderlands chain man
Lucio

For me it would be :
Offense : Pharah
Defense : Widowmaker
Tank : Zarya
Support : Symmetra

Let's not pretend that Symmetra can out-DPS Mercy heals or that Reinhardt and Bastion will sit there for 12 hours while you 125 charge shot damage them to death with your projectile that moves like four feet a minute.

Only Soldier 76.

I like being an offence which can throw out a heal.
I also like the juxtaposition that his character is basically Captain America and how much hate he gets from special snowflake players. Makes his quotes and character that much more fun.

What do you guys think the next Support character will be? Some people speculated that it will be Pharah Mother with a Sniper Support tool for some reason due to some leaked art during a video. Support Sniper seem interesting idea wise.

You can also headshot him because hitreg is super forgiving and then SMG him to death since you still out-DPS him at close range. To ensure that you can win the 1v1, you can also throw down a Spider mine by the flank you're shooting from so you get 75 damage on him for free before you grapple away.

The fact a class like this is allowed to have mobility like that, the highest DPS in the game by miles, and 200 health is batshit fucking retarded.

>>338302543

I think it's probably his ult.
When his ult is down, his healing is lackluster but his damage is crazy for a support. He works super well with a Lucio on your team, because no one will die and Zenyatta does enough damage to make 2 supports viable.

I had an 92% win ratio with Soldier 76. The few losses were typically due to landing on a team with random bads or poor team comp.

I don't enjoy playing him, but Soldier 76 is a beast.
>>
>>338302949
It's like 500/1000 I think.
Would've been a better mechanic if you just got 100 bonus XP per Commendation instead of having to hope 4 other people on your team think you were good enough.
Let alone your entire team AND 4 from the other team.

No, not really. The burst is the difference, and instead of X2 damage like Zen, X1.5 due to sheer range potential.
And healing bursts mean poor timing = dead allies, but can save in a pinch, unlike a Zen ball.
Possibly replace damage taken debuff with a slow?

Nope.
Tracer, Junkrat, D.Va, Symmetra.

Offense: Usually S76 or Reaper so that's right

So I keep deluding myself into thinking we just have a bunch of Blizzard shills advertising OW daily on /v/. But I'm starting to think that people actually preordered the game, like what the fuck? Wasn't there an open beta where everyone could see how shit it is? Is there people that buy the game for the actual gameplay, or is it just waifufags?
I dropped it after playing 3 days in the closed beta and had a good feeling that it's gonna flop.
>>
>it's another Overshill thread.

How many random bads are there that just pick whatever character without caring about comp or actually winning as a team?
>>
>>338303289
Maybe change the movement speed instead? Like shooting in a leg that reduce movement speed by 50% for x amount of time? Like a Debuffer that can Adrenaline boost allies?

Soldier 76, yeah, but that's because I'm pretty bad at specialized offense, and Reinhardt because someone needs to be Reinhardt sometimes.

I never even touched Widowmaker and Mercy, I was all about Mei and Zenyatta.
>>
>>338298717
if you somehow convinced the red team against you to run 3 genji and 3 symmentra you could probably get past your rehinheart and bastion setup.

3 genjji to reflect all your shots and 3 symmentra to shoot energy balls that just fly straight though the shields.

I'm not saying the characters are the same. The comp tactic still is.

It would be a waste of time to try and wholly compare the games.

A good sniper(s) should take out the TF2 payload stomp comp every time.

If this isn't the case for Overwatch, then there's no point continuing to compare.
>>
>>338298534
Yeah that's true. Some people say that Hanzos role is comparable to that of a sniper but I see him more of a mid range DPS dealer.

Pharah, Windowmaker, Roadhog, Zenyatta

I played tf2 and like it a lot, especially before they introduced hats, so I assumed I'm gonna like OW as well. But it feels like a dumbed down baby F2P shooter. Especially pharah has such a low skill ceiling. I expected some cool rocket jump mechanics but got some lame hover stuff instead. McCree was fun as well pre-nerf and then they just made him into a spambot.

She's surprisingly hard to play. It's easy enough to aim her guns but the first few times you play her (and a few more if you're not so good at videogames) your blink is going to confuse you more than it confuses your opponents
>>
>>338303784
Notice the arrows.
They're pointing to those heroes. That means that the numbers are tied to those characters.
If they were just on the side, I would say nothing. But the indication is those characters, since Zen can also deal damage, but there's no arrow to him for it.

It was colourful, easy to jump, managed to get public matches to work together and combine their skills which I felt was missing from TF2 and it had a lot of polish. The hero theme feels really strong unlike in other MOBA type games where everyone is just korean mmo art.
I'm leaning towards buying it but I'm still on the fence.

It's a lot of fun because you have to focus on where you are in relation to all 6 players on the enemy team and all 5 of your other teammates. Winning or losing a round can be decided simply by you stepping a foot left or right sometimes, it's intense.

I had no interest in the game when it was first announced, and glanced at it when Mei was revealed, but otherwise ignored it. Then I got into the alpha and thought it was fun but not $40 fun, and then I played more in the open beta felt less that way.

Then after three consecutive nights trying to win a copy through that Taco Bell contest, I realized I should probably just buy the game if I was willing to go through that much intestinal distress to try to get it.

He does really high damage for a support and provides a really nice debuff that'll wreck enemies but his healing isn't as consistent compared to Lucio and Mercy.

>>338304660

Second worst hero in the game at the moment, behind Bastion.

They nerfed him along with Genji a while back because they were dominating everything. In the end they re-buffed Genji but forgot to do the same with Zen. He's fragile, does nice damage, but has no defensive capability and his heal is trash.

You are constantly doing something as Lucio/Sym/Zen. Mercy is just watching someone else play for the most part. It felt like the design of the other supports were focusing on how to make the character fun to play as while picking up after a pub team while her design feels like it was designed for a gf.

D.Va was always the most fun to play, though I hope they give her a buff. Needs better damage and smaller critbox. She was good against scrubs, but anyone who realized how big her critbox was could down her easily and quickly.
>>
>>338304945

Mercy is actually doing a lot more consistently than either Lucio or Zen.

The reason here is that she has no offensive capability (her pistol does insane damage for what it's worth) and a limited defensive technique. You are ALWAYS focusing on where you are and what cover you have, you need to make sure you're in line of sight of your teammates, watch what they are doing to be ready to cover them, keep an eye on who is doing damage and who is going to ulti so you can power boost them, all while knowing where the enemy team is and keeping yourself out of their vision.

It's a lot to keep track of and it really shows you who knows how to play Mercy and who doesn't. The shitters pocket heal a single person and just stand next to them the entire time.

Can we stop lying to ourselves about this? If a character is capable of being part of an incredibly strong set-up in this game, there is no way in hell they can be the worst. A team with a Bastion, Reinhardt, and a Mercy is going to be absurdly strong, especially if they are the team that wins the cap on a Hybrid map. I guess you can pretend that Symmetra's shield-piercing shot isn't garbage, but it won't change the fact that Mercy outheals the damage by a billion to one and she wouldn't get shredded for peaking a damage-boosted Bastion.

He just can't keep up, in a game of two evenly matched teams consisting of veteran players the Zenyatta will be nothing more than food. He doesn't have the healing prowess or the ult potential of the other supports. He is terrible and it makes me sad to say that, I've got two friends who loved playing him early in the CB but haven't been able to touch him since the nerf.

I like Widow but I never play her because my team usually has two of her plus a hanzo already. Reinhart and Mercy are boring as fuck to play and only picked because they're free wins for doing nothing. Soldier feels too vanilla to play in a game like this.

>>338305486

I've been in the closed beta since it started, Bastion early on was strong when he had a shield but his current incarnation is utterly useless. If you stack him with a Rein and Mercy all you've done is set up 3 of your teammates to be easy kills for the enemies, people who aren't brand new at the game know how to deal with bastion and aren't afraid of him.

You now have 3 immobile players who will easily get flanked because your other 3 members can't hold up 3v6, no matter where you go as this boosted bastion trio the enemy will simply avoid you.

The role split is completely arbitrary.
S76 has pretty decent healing capabilities.
Lucio is mostly assault.
D.va is hardly a tank, she has a lot of HP but they go down in no time, she's a mobile harasser
Defence category makes little sense in general
