epic render scale renders everything at 2x resolution
if you're playing at 1080 it's rendering it at ~4k and downscaling it, a form of supersampling. This reduces aliasing but obviously slows the game down.

I don't have a favorite class, i always last pick and choose what the team needs.

It's easier to say least favorite heroes: Hanzo, Genji, Poo in the Loo, Roadhog, Tjorb, off the top of my head.

None of these characters are vital to the game and they all have other choices available in their class that do their job better. Anyone who says otherwise is mainer scum and should be disregarded.

Maining is completely fine if you main a universally good class.

You're delusional if you think that's true and you're either:

an offense main, so you don't really care what anyone else picks because you're playing tracer/reaper whatever and fuck everyone

the guy who is a support/tank main, you probably fight with other people when they choose your reinhardt or just flat out choose to be the second reinhardt (because fuck people, amirite?)
who cares if you don't do enough damage to kill people on the other team.

you play in solo queue, that being the case do whatever you want because thats like playing with /b/ and r/ and nothing really matters there.
don't try and come here like anything you learned there means anything either.

There is literally nothing worse when we go in with a full 5/6 stack and we go up against solo queue players. It's not even fun and free wins like that aren't satisfying.

tldr; kill yourself

That argument only works to defend slowpokes who can't learn more than one thing at once.

The kits are simple and it shouldn't take people more than a couple of f1's and maybe 2-3 games to understand how the character they play works. Anyone who says otherwise is a shitter.

>>136451497
I don't see a counter argument here, Jacky. I'm just sitting here wondering who you are quoting.

If you had a team with real supports doing their job you wouldn't need a teleporter. Even if people die Mercy does her job better, for one.

Literally any Offense can do genji's job better. Even Hanzo. He is just edgelord closet homosexual fodder. He is so fucking situational it's ridiculous and anyone from any class can shit down his throat with 2 working brain cells.
Just because you have some success against some single digit shitters with him doesn't mean anything.

yo can someone break the beta stuff down for me, it's so fucking confusing

so it says this on the site regarding the beta:
"you’ll also get early access to the Open Beta for you and a friend from May 3–4. After that, everyone will have a chance to play free during an all-access Open Beta period from May 5–9."

so when you pre-purchase, do you:
1) get to play from 3-4 then everyone can play from 5-9
2) The beta keeps going until release or does it end on the 9th? (what kind of fucked up short "beta" is that)
>>
>>136459690

It's a shit incentive to pre order, they should be given access to the closed beta going on now

>>136460496
It was never supposed to be an incentive, was thrown in the last minute due to a lot of people being assmad they didn't get in even if they preordered.
>>
hype for sombra and soundquake desu
>>
>>136460839
so to play devil's advocate completely

what if we actually see it in a good light the difference is so small? that blizzard actually didnt jew out for pre-orders

we're so used to having these massive pre-order bonuses, and what if blizzard dont want to make a big deal out of the pre-order thing?

hey cool you pre-ordered, have a few skins, but we're not going to treat you like a king


remember when the word "pre-order" didnt exisit in the gaming language
>>
>>136461294
Blizz in fact did not want to cater to preorders. They thought everybody would be fine with a couple day beta to test the game and make their decision then (Open Beta). They only changed this very recently, as seen by Kaplan apologizing to those who preordered. And hence we have a couple day preorder exclusive days, and open beta following right after.

I see it in a good light. I don't care about all these preorder bonuses. They're stupid. If I don't have actual beta access, allow me to try the game out prior to launch, and I'll wind up buying the game.

If it had a cast time it would be a completely useless ability that at best would revive one person at a time.

She is perfectly fine as it is now and if anything she needs another defensive ability on her E. It's no ones fault but your own that you are playing against a mercy and not taking measures to prevent revives.

>>136488601

His shield has a longer cooldown in addition to being 40% weaker. It's basically trash now.
>>
>>136489254

At this point I find that I really don't bother damage boosting most of the time, even if it's a pharah or reaper ult it's more useful to heal them to make sure they stay alive. It's more of a "no one is damaged so why not" ability than something I focus on doing.
>>
>>136491265

I understand why they nerfed it. Mcree pre-falloff could deal 105 damage at any range with damage boost.

I think 25% is too light when your alternative is keeping someone alive. I think if Mercy didn't have to choose it would be fine.
>>

allow him to grab faggots during his ult

The tips on respawn explicitly say that winston is supposed to land on supports and snipers and yet he's much worse at that than Dva.

He was a meta pick because of bubble spam and now he can't do that anymore since it's made of tin foil now.
>>
>>136451392
>Sniper on attack for first push in one map.
So, what you're saying is, switching champs is good and maining is bad?
>>
>>136501316
possibly. open beta is may 5-9 i think. can always try it as a group with them
>>
>>136501414
>>136500782

You aren't supposed to jump in by yourself, that's exactly what he isn't meant to do. You play him in a lineup that can support his ultra aggressive jumps so that when he does go in and get people low your team comes in behind and cleans up.

I see Winston constantly in games and a good one is a menace to deal with, you almost have to get a reaper just to keep him honest.
>>
So I haven't gotten a chance to play the beta or anything since I'm on ps4, but Lucio has always interested me as a support character. Others that play support, do you play him or someone like Zenyatta?
>>
>>136502221
disregard that I suck cocks
>>
>>136502237
I play Lucio, then Symmetra, then Mercy. But that's because my aim is shit and Zen needs precision.

Also, they're good for different team comps, so, sometimes Zenyatta is better then Lucio, and vice versa, depending on the team.
>>
>>136502237

He is a must on king of the hill but can many times be outclassed on normal maps by Mercy and even Zen. Mercy puts out way more healing and Zen has a much higher damage potential while his ultimate can for the most part do the same thing. He works great for brawling oriented lineups and not so good with tank centric ones.


I find him hard to classify as a support though because he is more of a low damage DPS character that has an aoe speed boost or regen. Without having any direct control over who you are healing it requires you to just pay attention to who is in your line of sight and just spam your weapon.
>>
>>136501768

What prestige do I have to be to unlock the perk that makes Winston's gun do damage? I know it's not a matter of skill because it's literally impossible to miss with.

It might take me 4-5 seconds of mindlessly running down a single widow in order to kill her. I'm eating SMG fire the entire time too.

If I was Dva I could fly into the bitch for 50, melee for 30, and then shred the rest of her health pretty easily.

I fail to see how Winston is ever a reasonable choice with DVa existing. He can't pick like her, he's not as versatile as her, his defensive ability isn't clutch as hers is, etc, etc.
>>
>>136502947
I've noticed that I mostly kill people as Winston because they just panic and run away when I'm attacking them. I feel like I'd lose a lot more 1v1s if they just turned around and started shooting me instead of running.
>>
>>136502947

That's probably because you're chasing like a moron instead of jumping, bubbling, and harassing to your limit. Also if you land on a Lucio and begin doing damage immediately it's actually not possible for him to speed boost away fast enough to survive, his best hope is to heal boost and hope to lead you out of your bubble while landing only headshots.

>Why am I jumping in alone and getting killed by characters that do well against me
>>
>>136503283

>I can't refute your arguments so I'll just assume you're bad

Post discarded, troglodyte.
>>
>>136503815

I explained how you should approach the situation, you chased down a Widow and got yourself killed because you made a bad play. It's not my fault you did that, believe it or not her SMG fire actually does significant damage and you're a large easy to hit target.

Winston isn't meant to jump in alone and solo the entire enemy team, as I stated I see him constantly in my games and they all manage to do just fine.
>>
>>136504425

>Using my entire arsenal on a completely blindsided single opponent as intended by the developers

>Fail entirely because of the extreme weakness of my kit (Nonexistent dps, no burst, a very weak shield, etc)

>You use a false equivalency and then provide anecdotal evidence to support it as if you have an argument

I hope you feel tremendously embarrassed for wasting all that text.
>>
>>136505337

You're going to great lengths to make excuses for your bad play. You seem to think that leaping on someone should be a guaranteed kill and that no one should be able to counterplay you.

Reinhardt can charge solo into the enemy team and die too, same with Diva and Roadhog, does that make them underpowered? Pharah can beat Reinhardt in a 1v1 with ease, is he somehow broken? Anyone in the game can beat Roadhog 1v1 if they evade his hook so maybe he needs a buff.

It's no ones fault but your own that you fail to understand how different characters interact and cannot figure out the role that Winston plays.
>>
>>136501316
Open beta is may 5th to 9th and anyone can play, so play with your friends then and you can all decide as a group if its worth 40 usd or not
>>
>>136505865

Again, no actual argument to be found. The scrambling tenacity of someone so irredeemably blown the fuck out is evident in your text. I'll break it down so you can understand super clear.

>I saw a widowmaker above the arch preceding the first point on Anubis.
>She was scoped in, looking at spawn, and unaware of my presence
>I leaped up to her, placed my bubble on the ledge to shield myself from enemy fire, and began to shoot the widow
>When I was at the arch, the widow and I had full health.
>She backpedaled off the arch, jumping and spraying wildly at me while she fell off towards our spawn
>At this point, neither the widow or I had taken damage from any of our representative opposing teams
>She landed, continued spraying, whiffed a hook escape attempt, all while my lighting completely engulfed the character my class is supposed to kill in this exact situation
>She melees
>I die
>Assist for 93 fire when a reaper cleans up.

Go ahead and make more excuses, troglodyte. Invent a team that magically intervened in this 1v1.

Winston is garbage and you can't read.
>>
>>136507151

I called you out on chasing, you just described in great detail how you chased and were punished for it.

I'll repeat the fact that her SMG does really good damage and you are a large hard to miss target. You're doing everything you can to blame the game and deface the enemy player when it's you who made a mistake.

She is the biggest slut there is. If not Mercy and Widowmaker, then everything is either Mercy and Zarya, Mercy and Pharah, Mercy and Tracer, Mercy and Junkrat, Mercy with Torbjorn, Mercy with Reinhart, or Mercy with 76.

I don't stream but I've won a lot of games as her. For whatever reason they won't show rounds lost or rounds played, just rounds won. Some of the smaller 10-20 viewer streamers play her but it's not exactly the most exciting thing in the world.

In the first part, she's checking her own pulse, after which, she gives some sort of "pffft" reaction, I guess because it's supposed to be a taunt.

No, it means your team should be roughly equal to their team and a member on their team should either be low level or bad.
>>
>>136518960
Pyyyour wins a lot as mercy.
>>
>>136538178

Not really, I've been matched up against the comp stacks with level 1-5 players on my team. There aren't enough people playing and it just grabs someone at random to fill a slot.
>>
>>136542456
That's what happens when you invite basically nobody to the closed beta.
>>
>>136542456
No not really actually. What is happening in that scenario is a couple of things.

1. those new players might have won their previous games in a landslide thus artificially putting them at a high skill level
2. the teams are equal, you may be put against level 50s evenly meanwhile your team is 200's and a couple low levels
3. you may just be queueing at a shit time

It's most likely the first two though, and that's the thing people forget. It's a team game and therefore places importance on team skill comparison. This is not simply about the player population, as even when the game goes live the matchmaking won't suddenly be this miracle.
>>
>>136543290
Yes, actually. Ever leave a game and queue just to be put in the same match?

There is no matchmaking rating. Everything is first come first serve. Kaplan made it this way to log as many matches as possible.
>>
>>136543290

No, not at all. I'm talking about being matched up against a premade of all competitive players who are level 100-300+ with my team having levels in the single digits. There is absolutely zero excuse for low level players to ever be put into a game with people who have 400-1000 games under their belt and are quite obviously at the high end of the MMR bracket. This kind of bullshit happens to me all night long as I queue up against premades and my team is filled in with people in the teens who think two bastions on attack is a good idea.

There aren't enough people playing and more importantly the matchmaking system just isn't very good.

Yeah try hitting them with the ult, that usually helps.
>>
>>136570696
The hit marks came up 4 times, when he diagonally cuts an extra green slash comes up to indicate it hit

Near the end when he clearly misses the hit mark doesn't show plus the ult actually has decent range
>>
>>136570938
Then its a bug because it clearly does no damage after the 1st hit.
>>
>>136571076
I just watched it again considering from my experience the second hit mark may not actually hit but the 3rd and fourth definitely hit him
>>

are you blind? the hit mark only shows up on the first hit

the genji was an idiot tho because he could've just dashed for the kill

>ignoring the green X hit effect
whether he was bad or not is not what you two are arguing about
>>
>>136570938
>>136569674
conflicting information

the normal hit marker (over the crosshair) only appears on the first hit. the green flashes that are unique to the ult appear more often.

i'd guess the regular hit marker appears when the server confirms you hit someone, but the flashes are only clientside.
>>
>>136572779
This could possibly be correct and probably the best response so far

I guess the fault is at 20 clicks still?

Also that genji didn't grab HP
>>
how do I be useful as symmetra?

once the teleporter is up I feel like there's not much I can do except give out shields. turrets might surprise braindead people but they're easy to dispatch for anyone else, and the orbs she fires hurt but they move so slowly that most people just step out of the way.

I feel like we always lose when there's no teleporter and always win when there is one, though. it's too useful to not have.
>>
>>136572779
>>136572715
Ah. Does the green effect only show up when Genji lands a hit? If so, my bad, I never play him.
>>
>>136573308
depends on the map imho

if attacking, it's better to place the sentries closer to the enemy than the tp, to keep them distracted
changes are they're not gonna wander around looking for a tp, unless your entire team is dead

So I wanted to start off by saying, I think the development team has done a pretty great job with the cast of female hero's in Overwatch. They are diverse, interesting, and compelling. From Mei to Zarya to Widowmaker the female cast reflects a large spectrum of personalities and player fantasies.

With that being said, lets talk about Tracer. From a marketing standpoint, she's the star of the show. She's a great hero. When we look at the way she's portrayed in promotional media, lore, and art in game we know a few things about her..

She's Fast.
She's Silly.
She's Kind.
She's a good Friend.

and then pic related happens...

WHAT? What about this pose has anything to do with the character you're building in tracer? It's not fun, its not silly, it has nothing to do with being a fast elite killer. It just reduces tracer to another bland female sex symbol.

We aren't looking at a widowmaker pose here, this isn't a character who is in part defined by flaunting her sexuality. This pose says to the player base, oh we've got all these cool diverse characters, but at any moment we are willing to reduce them to sex symbols to help boost our investment game.

Getting art into a triple A game isn't a small task, it has to go through an implementer, a team lead, an art director, and a creative director. This is a team effort. And I believe the team is responsible for upholding the great example overwatch can set to the rest of the industry for creating strong female characters.

I have a young daughter that everyday when I wake up wants to watch the recall trailer again. She knows who tracer is, and as she grows up, she can grow up alongside these characters.

What I'm asking is that as you continue to add to the overwatch cast and investment elements, you double down on your commitment to create strong female characters. You've been doing a good job so far, but shipping with a tracer pose like this undermines so much of the good you've already done.
