I find it completely reasonable to get bored of this game in a week. As someone who enjoys skill based multiplayer games, Overwatch wasn't too enjoyable. The ultimates and low tick rate make the game feel really bland.
>>
>>339852545
do I have to know what game this is
>>
i have to admit the low tick rate is disgusting and destroys the game for me, pulling people through walls as roadhog made me laugh at first but now its beyond a joke, and it's annoying when you go around a corner to suddenly die from magic bullet man mcskill who's bending bullets like he's from wanted.
>>
>>339858278
It kind of irritates me dying to a bullet that was 10 feet away from me, but whatever.

It needs to die quickly. Most obnoxious playerbase since Dota.

What the fuck do you think play of the game is? It's not a panel of X Factor judges sifting through every multi kill/res and finding the best one every game. Bastion gets most play of the games because he kills most people in low level play.

>>339854806
Different guy, but the reason why overwatch having no competitive potential is a deal breaker to me is because WHAT THE FUCK ELSE IS THERE? It's 6v6 with no custom servers, maps, mods, or anything. Kids will rage at you if you try doing anything remotely silly like offensive no turret torb, or even just playing a character you want because the team builder says you need to play a tank.

The game is designed so that you have to play "comp lite" at the very least and considering the game has no fucking competitive potential at all, what's the fucking point? Where's the fun?

This. Playing support makes me feel like Jane Goodall among the fucking chimpanzees. They all stick with terrible characters for the match up (double Hanzo on attack is painfully common) and do the most ridiculous nonsense like Reinhardt/Winston going balls deep into Torbjorns and Bastions only to melt in seconds. They run past chokepoints and try to play fisticuffs in front of the enemy spawn only to melt in seconds. It's truly baffling how dumb people can be. Only the guaranteed epic commendation at the end of the games make it slightly worth it.

Honestly this, it's unarguable.
It doesn't have enough variance in potential strats to stay interesting in the comp scene and that's without mentioning the fucking awful tickrate (even at a competitive level), and the gimmicky ults mean the game will never be able to compete against CSGO.

It doesn't have enough capacity for mods, mapping, custom server modes, etc. to compete against casual games like TF2.

So what the fuck is it? They better sort something out or stick to releasing frequent free updates or else this game is going to die a horrible fucking death.

It won't.

Call it casual, call it shit, call it whatever you like but the game won't "die a horrible death"

Example? See Call of Duty. No mods, mapping, custom server modes.

Let go of TF2, game is old and only people who are still interested in playing it now are those who already have been, BRs, and ponyfags. It's population won't grow, but it won't diminish.

It's fun but I bought Witcher 3 for the expansion and I'm enjoying it far more at the moment. Once exams are over and more of my friends get Overwatch I'll probably go back to playing that over the summer.

>>339860908
Call of Duty literally releases a new game every year, that's their business model to keep the userbase interested. What do you think happens to the old games? Cod4 has like a few hundred people playing it these days, that's it.

Meanwhile TF2 is still the third most popular game on Steam dozens of years after release for it's high amount of (and potential for) content, something that Overwatch doesn't have.

What has Overwatch got going for it? Right now it's Splatoon tier, but worse because PC already has other more attractive shooter titles
>>
>>339860908
I'm guessing there's a good chance people will keep playing it like other hypercasual fps but the "pro" scene will probably die the instant blizzard stops the marketing blitz. Right now they're basically paying for the whole scene out of their own pocket and it's still fairly pathetic compared to other esports in terms of team quality and even viewership. The split playerbase between 3 platforms with no means of crossplay won't help either.

The problem with Overwatch is you must have a proper team that work on teamwork & tactics. I can see a lot of competitive potential but it definitely needs work & they have to get the equiv. of mutators & custom maps in.

Also have to factor in that it's definitely not a complete product just yet. Early release just to fuck with Gearbox, which makes me quite merry :o)

The catering to the casual audience has gimped it somewhat, but I get it as it maximizes profit for Blizz.

For some reason I'd actually like to see an option to disable ults.

How much money do you think Blizzard is forking over to popular streamers to get them to stream this game non-stop?

I've noticed Overwatch high in the Twitch rankings, but it's only because they seem to have every 25-30k viewer streamer playing this game in shifts. It's super top heavy numbers.

I never thought I'd play Reaper because he seemed really boring but I'm actually having a lot of fun with him now, the aiming aspect and creeping around the map undetected actually adds quite a bit of complexity to a class that seems boring on paper. Plus the ult is just insane.

The idea that its noncompetitive is completely farcical. There's a distinct reason a level 50 will decimate a level 15. You could argue its merely practice, but practice is proportional to skill.

I'd chalk it up to the people that believe all the skill in Hearthstone correlates to your card collection. Imbeciles like >>339862986 boiling gameplay down to a single variable, making it seemingly easy to tear to shreds.

It's a nice change from TF2 but it won't last. The game is incredibly shallow and like others have said no dedicated servers, custom maps, or mods means it will die the second blizzard stops putting out updates. There's not much reason to improve since it's nearly impossible to fight and win against more than 2 players at a time so it just comes down to having good team comp and milking ults which makes for a very boring game. Ults are cool the first time you use them but after that it's the same shit forever, there's no room for the meta to evolve or for clutch plays. There's not much at stake either since players aren't punished for dying and there's no way to track ults the best tactic is to just throw yourself at the enemy team over and over and hope something works.
>>
>>339863238
>what is every shooter

Getting hit by ults is really rare at higher levels and only applies when they get a good flank. I never understood people complaining about High Noon when I rarely if ever get hit by it.

I'm abusing McCree until he gets nerfed. He's the easiest class and gets the most kills, most damage, and most objective kills every round.

I'm sure you believed Ubisoft when they claimed The Division was the "most successful new IP launch ever." I also bet you actively believe Blizzard's numbers on World of Warcraft subs, too.

There is a reason they said it's had 7 million players and not 7 million sales.

If Blizzard wasn't paying/incentivizing the most popular streamers into playing this game, it would fall out of the top 5 on Twitch, easily. And we know for a fact they did this, because every big streamer on Twitch "just so happened" to get an Overwatch key during the closed beta despite never having a Battle.net account.

It's manufactured.

It's a fucking dumbass arena shooter for fuck's sake. How do you morons eat this shit up? Play the same damn fucking map over and over and over and over with the same objective every fucking time. Holy shit this IS the death of gaming. A company as revered as Blizzard is making Team Fortress tier shit. A company that used to create massive universes with deep lore and big, beautiful worlds.

>inb4 WoW didn't have amazing lore, characters, story.

/v/ would be awful at this game because it requires grouping up and playing as a team. Every time I play with /v/ it's a bunch of autistics with 5 second reaction times trying to solo the entire enemy team alone in a corner of the map then spamming memes in chat. /v/ servers are the only servers where I can achieve a 10:1 kdr with ease and be top of the scoreboard every time. On any normal server I'm just good enough to be in the top 25%, but never good enough to top a scoreboard.
>>
>>339864545
Just like League of Legends, Dota 2, and Hearthstone, right?

I'll probably buy it when it drops down to half price, or gets a character that's interesting enough to spend money to get.

It never will with this tickrate. I can't count the times I've died behind a wall. It feels like 0.5 second delay sometimes. Just horrible.
One time even one of my Pharah rockets got "deleted" even though it already traveled half way, but I died and it didn't explode. In the death recap, I didn't shoot at all.
20 tick sucks major ass.

Wiping teams from good aim and not because you pressed Q at the right time.
Counters not being so ridiculously one sided that you have a chance to win if you're a better player.
More mechanics and weapons to learn and master.
Maps that aren't built around chokes every 5 feet and losing teams have a chance to fight back.
More complex tactics.

6v6 TF2 alone is a thousand times more complex and harder to learn than OW.

Tickrate is how many times the server updates per second. Ever seen a guy running into a wall and not moving for several seconds and then he teleports to a new location and continues running normally? That's what happens when you stop getting updates of player position. Ever ducked behind a wall and then died from a headshot that was impossible? That was due to low tickrate. The server didn't update the other player fast enough so he still saw you hanging out in the open so he shot you then the server told your game client that you were dead even though you saw yourself behind cover. Low tickrate causes all those problems most players call "lag" or "bad hit reg". The higher the tickrate, the more accurate the shooting and hit detection. 10 tickrate on BF4 servers is one of the worst things in history. 20 tickrate on Overwatch is really very bad. Ideally the best tickrate is 128 but only the best CSGO servers do that.

The most skill based shooters are Quake and UT yet those games are dead. People don't like super competitive games.

this game was designed to make the incompetent feel powerful at least some of the time. those who quit dark souls or path of exile or dota or CS:GO because they don't experience immediate success. those people who will trade in the potential for joyful mastery for some meaningless shallow feel-goods. that is blizzard's entire design philosophy. design games for the lowest common denominator.
