Hey /v/, how do we feel about this? Personally I think it's fine since Overwatch is such an ultrafast-paced shooter

honestly i find it disappointing
even PC has this?
I wouldn't be surprised about it being on consoles but I wouldn't have thought PC as well.

I honestly dont really care. I only play it casually with a few friends and i dont watch esports.
If a giant hitbox makes me feel more like i dont suck im all for it.

Don't care. Everyone posting in this thread will never be perfect at aiming anyways, and there is a mountain of shitter you can stomp in this game.

I legitimately don't have a problem with this. The average Overwatch player is so shit that I can't imagine how awful my teammates would be without this much aim assist
meanwhile my roadhog RMB shots routinely ghost through character models not doing any damage
>>340242109
I don't really care. I've never even played it but all this tells me is the game is not really designed around precision shooting, it's a different kind of game. It could have been also implemented to compensate for certain complications arising from certain game mechanics in conjunction with lag and other things.

>these blatant blizzdrones
Although I have had a few "wooooooooow" moments I don't think the hit detection is too devastating on the game.
>>340243620
>shitting on the community makes me a blizzdrone
maybe they'll change it for ranked and esports mode?
>>340243620
I've never played a Blizzard game
>>340242258
That must be on consoles
R-Right...?
>>340242343
Now I understand why I get so many head shots from across the map with mercy. Hopefully competitive has better hitboxes and is 60hz, but I'm having fun either way.
>>340244224
look in the top left and the bottom right, anon

Heat-seeking ice
>>340242863
Jesus I knew /v/ got casual over the years but this is beyond pathetic
>>340244908
Does it even matter at 20 tick though?

These are large hitboxes
Arguing this with a few friends now on how these huge hit boxes are bullshit.
>B-but they need it because they fire PROJECTILES!
Fucking notice how much damage Mei does given she is a fucking close range defense hero.
>It makes sense because it's a giant ice block going through you! Mei is perfectly balanced!
>>340242343
I swear this happens with every weapon in the game, so often it feels like people just shoot towards you randomly and it bends into your head, even widowmaker playrs barely aim and keep getting headshots
>>340245143
There's no excuse for this, no matter how you spin it.
>>340245284
It's not just projectile weapons either, see
>>340242164
>>340245361
Fuck dude, I would argue that Widowmaker requires the most skill with aiming for this game.Which is really fucking sad to say because she is easy to snipe with.
>>340243249
Roadhog's RMB doesn't do anything until it explodes, and then it's basically just your left-click project a short distance in front of your character
>>340245215
It's not large hitboxes, otherwise you wouldn't have things like >>340243249 or the attack in >>340242258 visually hitting thekneecaps.
>>340245406
It's a casual game for casuals, and if you get offended over a game you don't play you're a megaspergelordand if you DO play it you're one of the casuals
>>340245496
I know and the funny thing is they keep saying how it's bullshit for Mercy and everyone else to do this but perfectly fine for all projectile based heros to have large hit boxes. Oh, everyone except Junkrat and Phara though, they do too much damage. Granted the people I am arguing with are massive Mei fags that think she is someone who needs a lot of skill.
>>340245719
I'm not offended though, I'm disgusted. I don't care if a game is casual, but be fucking honest about it and don't try to pass it off as if deserved any respect
>>340242614
Anybody? Is this on PC? Seems like a console thing.
>>340245829
disgust is a form of being offended
>>340245903
>>340242614
Look at the bottom right for keyboard prompts, dude
The funny thing is there are people who believe that this game will make it to the competitive tourney level. Now I fucking love Overwatch but even I think these hit boxes are bullshit. This is just aim bot level of fagatory.
>>340242109
I'd have that over this which is wayyy too common
>>340245978
Not for me, at least. Being offended implies that I'm upset, when it's just disdain
>>340242109
>Overwatch
>ultrafast-paced
>>340246032
That doesn't happen that often though. Definitely not as much as Overwatch hitbox bullshit, which appears to be intentional.
I'm glad I didn't buy this piece of shit.
>>340246147
>B-b-but Overwatch does it more!
>>340245654
That is 20 tickrate retard
>>340242994
I honestly agree with this
It'd take forever to kill someone otherwise
I'm okay with garbage hitboxes if they lower the body damage. Nothing is more disgusting that body shotting Widowmakers
>>340246219
>I'd have that over this which is wayyy too common
Look at the post I was replying to, you dumb fuck.
>>340242109
>blizzard makes a shit game
wow who could have seen that coming
>>340246107
Well for me, "disgusted" means "gay," so get over here, big guy.
>>340242109
as a first person shooter i think people have an expectation of really precise shooting even though the core mechanical concept of shooters, aiming and shooting, doesn't necessarily beg for precision. rather, like any other simple gameplay idea, like jumping or swinging a weapon or something, it's applicable and combinable with any number of other gameplay concepts and mechanics.
surely they tested the game extensively, and it's most likely they started much more precise but during testing that they moved away from it. for whatever reason it seems the designers did not want the players to focus purely on getting perfect shots and instead made it easier to aim. perhaps it's because perfect precision would make that the most difficult part of the game, and then the game's difficulty would be weighted at that one point, and they preferred a game whose difficulty was distributed differently over different mechanics. it would simply be a much different game.
another example of this splatoon, which for the most part does not require precision, as like overwatch it's designed more for kids, and even though the game's a shooter, it simply *isn't about precision*. the central gameplay challenge lies elsewhere, and that's okay. it's also similar to the whole argument about regarding smash bros as a fighting game. it IS a fighting game. it just isn't a fighting game fan's fighting game.
then again, i've never played the game. maybe it's really detrimental to the experience.
>>340245654
Are BNet names unique? Because I literally just played a match with a Frost who was Widow.
>>340242109
I FUCKING KNEW THAT ARROW HAD A GIANT ASS HITBOX
>>340246107
>Not for me
Yes, for you. A word means what a word means, even if you don't agree with it. "Offended" applies to more than just emotions.
>>340246426
>"grggraghgh slurp slurp." I sure do love this CS:GO dick.
>>340242258
ICICLE KNEES
>>340246641
Why are you bringing up CSGO in an Overwatch thread?
Even though im then highest level compared to my friends and come in at like top 20 in overall play time on the US server, i still like to make jokes about it being a casual games for kids with a low skill ceiling, Guess i was partially right.
>>340246570
Keep arguing semantics if that's what tickles your fancy
>>340246476
>20tick.webm
>>340246254
Actually, that's plain old lag. Killcam shows what your client THINKS happened, not what the server saw.
This isn't due to tickrate, but with how long it takes both you and your killer to communicate with the server.
>>340246641
>bring up CSGO
>anyone who defends it loves CSGO dick
Please kill yourself.
>>340246706
Why can't you mom stop sucking dick?
>>340246535
No, there's an invisible number tied to each battlenetID so multiple people can have the same names
>>340246713
I'd argue the person that said "I'm not offended I'm disgusted" was the one who sent the conversation down that road
>>340246778
Do you understand how tick works or are your just spouting?
>>340242109
>shoot large caliber projectile near someones head in real life
>it also will take off their head even if it doesn't hit it
BLIZZ DID IT PERFECTLY YOU FUCKING RETARDS THIS IS HOW IT WORKS. HANZOS ARROWS LIKE 2 INCHES IN DIAMETER ITS THICK AS FUCK. SAME THING WITH NINJA THROWING STARS OR A FUGGIN HAND CANNON OR ICICLE. ITS MAKES PERFECT SENSE SO DELETE THIS THREAD.
>>340247006
That one might be tick since it looks like the game didn't update the position to where she visibly was yet.
>>340246994
>I'd argue the person that said "I'm not offended I'm disgusted" was the one who sent the conversation down that road
If that's all you have to the discussion then go ahead
>>340247058
My nigga this b8 is pretty weak. But don't worry I believe you will get it right one day.
>>340242258
IT'S IN THE BOOOOOOOOOOONE
>>340247094
Her gun works off hitscan. If the client saw its player's crosshair lined up on a hitbox and they fired, it would tell the server that they got a hit, regardless of tickrate or latency or any of that. Hitscan is done clientside and is not subject to any tick or ping bullshit for the shooter, only the victim.
>>340247358
Sorry, I didn't realize. Any idea why it missed then?

All those times I died in sniper battles with hanzo while behind cover, I always attributed it to lag. This explains everything...
>>340247448
My guess would be hitboxes that don't line up 100% with all of the model's animations. Particularly the more niche or shorter ones like jumping due to dev laziness/oversight
>>340247448
It looks like it was a genuine miss, although it was only a centimeter off. If you pause the webm at the exact moment of fire it looks that way...
If you do some research, the ridiculous hitboxes are only for the heads, so it wouldn't surprise me if this was the case.
>>340247448
I've heard a lot of people are having issues with the servers. Lag, and getting disconnected. Blizzard said they are going to be working, fixing orupgradingthem.
Not sure if it's due to that or not, but I just had another game with Widow and was hitting a lot of my shots.
>>340242109
\DELETE THIS
BWAHAHAHA proof this game is for casuals that need as much aim assist as they can get
>>340242109
>Overwatch is such an ultrafast-paced shooter
Nothing ultrafast-paced here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sL0Z_nSYhyU
Overwatch is fun because there's 12 players, and short respawn time, which make something constantly happening.
This is why the competitive scene gets boring time to time when they are waiting for the whole team to group up.

There is no greater feeling than this when it comes to this game
I think it's fine because everyone is on the same playing field. The corner headshot stuff will never really happen in a real game.

What about it, they were all sitting around that corner, zarya ulted them all together and he got the 5 man ult. Gratz to him but honestly it was more a happy coincidence.
