>>341859093
It is possible to have fun the wrong way.
Say, someone whose idea of fun is to play TF2 as a sniper, getting kills without a fight but being very useless for their team, as is the case with most snipers.

It's going to make the game a little less fun for everyone, because fighting a sniper from far away is impossible so it's just a game of "if your head is clicked you're dead", fighting a sniper close up is trivial and unsatisfying, and the most the sniper is going to do for their own team is killsteal.

Team Fortress 2 has had a major cancerous player base for a long ass time now.

Probably because basically any computer can run it, it is free, and idiots and children play it to meme the shit out of it still to this day.

Seriously, I never play multiplayer focused FPS titles on PC anymore. It is pure cancer. Xbox is just as bad. Go with Playstation, nobody talks on there and they just fucking play. It is glorious.

How is OW not a fast-paced FPS? If we compare it to other popular shooters such as Counter Strike and even TF2 it is clearly very fast paced.
>>
The problem with Overwatch is that it's competitive from the getgo because of how objective focused it is.

In TF2 I remember often just joining some server to clown around as engineer or spy for half an hour and do my thing

In OW it's different
You have fast, competitive and compact 6v6 matches all the time

m8 that isn't a problem. If you want team deathmatch then you can either play the weekly brawl or any number of other games.

Counter-Strike is a team-based objective-based game. It isn't a problem, it's just what the game is.

I sorta see what you mean about feeling like you need to tryhard all the time since every game is 'competitive'. Once Competitive Mode drops, Quick Play will probably be regarded in the same way as casual CS:GO modes, where you can dick around as much as you like without anyone really caring.

Yeah, the second they retarded wiwdowmaker scope animation I know now they don't know how to fucking proper balance the game. It did nothing on her shitting on their oh so sensitive casual fan base experience, while literally crippling her competive play. Only the people who have a stick up their ass about the 'proper roles of a sniper' bullshit, and the fags who are just getting off at seeing widow players, with an establish play type and meta, frustrated are gloating. Yet, after widow adjusted to her new clunky scope, they are going to be asking for more nerfs because she still retains a lot of stupid bullshit they should have fix in the first place.

They have effectively made her unfun to play, while still being able to ruin the fun of others, and making her unviable comeptively. What a way to fuck up blizzard.

Something you find fun might not be fun for someone else.
For example: I like winning because that's my concept of fun. more so if the match is fairly even because it makes the win ever more fun than if it was a steamroll. You may just like playing because you like the different heroes and playing with your buds just for the sake of playing. I like that too, but if I also win then I have way more fun than if I hadn't.

>>
>>341875483
The best way to kill hanzo is too bait him into using his scattershot at mid to long range making it easier for you to evade his shot. Also predicting when he is making his shot to use blink for higher chance of evading. After he has wasted his scattershot you move into close/mid range and continue to blink left/right right when you anticipate the next arrow to launch at you. Aim at his head and he is dead within 2-4 seconds

Also just space to jump around, it makes it much harder for the hanzo to hit you.
