LEMME JUST ONE SHOT HALF THE CAST LMAO
OH YOU SHOT AT ME A BIT?
NO BIGGIE LET ME REFILL MY MASSIVE HEATH POOL IN THREE SECONDS.
LEMME JUST ONE SHOT HALF THE CAST LMAO
umad?
He's such a big target and with no mobility that without his 300 hp regen he'd be so easy to shut down.
Is there a SINGLE character Sup Forums shitters won't bitch about?
zenyatta
soldier 76
mccree
reaper
if you go in alone you're a fag, stop complaining that you have to use teamwork to take down a tank
Why does a tank do more damage than all of the damage classes?
>stop complaining that you have to use teamwork to take down a tank
wooooooow, it took all of you to kill me.
get good
>No shield of any kind
He's literally the worst tank.
well he does have a shotgun, stop being stupid and don't get hooked
He doesn't. Play around the hook jesus. What the hell do you think that Roadhog's next move is gonna be when he's strafing and looking right at you?
he's a free ultimate for the whole enemy team , among other downsides mentioned already
if he couldnt heal himself, he would be a pretty bad tank to be honest
Ana could heal him instantly. but before that he would be pretty useless without it
If you can't get this guy from long range you deserve to be in the rank 30's
his hook is long range
yes because that balances the character
Thanks for the ult charge.
>his hook is long range
Medium-short range. Jesus christ get good.
>try to bait his hook
>get hooked through 3 walls, a ceiling, a small country, and several houses
Literally the only reason why he's good right now. That hook is extremely forgiving.
fuck you that hook travels miles.
You're retarded OP.
He doesn't do more damage than all of the DPSes because his damage output requires you to be point-blank and even then there's a huge delay between his shots. Stop being such a baby.
he does do more damage you absolute mongoloid. He one shots most of the cast with his hook combo. The only members he doesnt one shot are like rein and himself.
Git gud
>enemy trying to pre-emptively dodge the hook he thinks is coming
>jig around a bit as i slowly advance on them
>blast my massive load in their face, one shotting them
lol what hook?
He one shots you yes, if you're stupid enough to let him hook you and you eat a full-force shot to the face point blank. But guess what? Other characters in the game can melt those heroes just as fast or even faster, considering Roadhog first needs to land the hook and wait for the pull.
And his hook won't even kill heroes with escape options like Tracer, Reaper, or Zarya. But you're probably a bitch Hanzo main or something.
fuck you
get fucked
you literally cant defend your garbage can of a character
youtube.com
the hook is the only broken thing from roadhog
He will kill tracers and reapers, he can shoot you while you're stunned.
>If you're stupid enough to let him hook you
His hook is literally hitscan, there's no dodging it.
>tracers pissing and moaning about a hook
fuck you limey cunts. you deserve hooks.
.t assmad reaperfag
u mad?
git gud you stupid fucking shitter.
Hey fat kid, gimmi your lunch money
>pick reaper
>bait hook with shift
>alternatively flank as if you aren't a massive shitter and point your guns at him
>his head if you feel like it
>hold M1
>dead hog
>50% ult built
Not in my experience
Now you're just being a literal retard. I've watched Tracers blink out of a hook's path after it was already in motion before, it's not hitscan.
Its not and youre stupid for thinking so. If you are facing someone running parallel to you from a distance the hook will fly to where they were moments before if you were to aim at them and not where they are going. The hitboxes are just huge.
Because he has no way to defend his teammates. Winston, Rein and D.va can all deflect damage. He's a "threat tank" who makes you focus him because of his damage potential and not because of a skill that actually forces you to attack him.
>play roadhog
>aim my hook directly at people
>never fucking hook anyone
Overwatch really is for the lowest common denominator I suppose
There are like 5 threads every day about whining of this or that character, what is wrong with these shitters?
>hook perfectly pulls you into kill range
>literally no cooldown
>literally no aftercast
The hook should be an initiation tool, not one that lets him fire at random into the enemy team and instantly kill what comes back to him. Make it so you can at least move a bit before he can start shooting at you, and he'll be perfectly fine.
Every single day somebody complains about a single different character.
If they're all overpowered then really none of them are.
The key is the hook on your right their left (unless they are moving your left their right, in which case aim it exactly where they currently are)
>See Roadhog
>Realize I'm Mcree and my group as a Zenyatta
>walk up to him fan the hammer for 540 roll then left click or two head shots from outside hook range
Roadhogs a bitch
>literally no cooldown
>literally
kys
How about you just don't walk directly up to roadhog you double nigger
>sniping shitters with RMB and hooks and watching them complain
Never gets
key is to*
>not knowing how to bait the hook
>not being able to deal damage while staying out of his shitty range
>not being able to follow him around a corner when he tries to heal
>getting mad that a tank character has lots of health instead of working with teammates to make short work of him
Shouldn't you be in bed? Only underage gets upset at the correct usage of a word.
You are using word "literally" literally in the exact opposite meaning of itself.
Im getting mad because
+hook range is cosmically long
+Fucktons of health
+Fucktons of damage
+Able to combo into a one shot for most of the cast
+able to heal almost all of his heath for free with a pitifully short cooldown
-lol he's big and has health for ult charge so he must be balanced eckdee!
>Only underage gets upset at the correct usage of a word.
Stop. You're making yourself look like a mongrel.
I'm tired of these threads, I'm convinced they're bait
All that need's to be fixed about Roadhog is his bullshit hook dragging people from around corners.
He is objectively the worst tank, he's a giant target, he can be shot while he heals (unlike Mei for example), and he has almost no range on his attacks at all. Literally anyone getting headshots on a Roadhog from medium to long range is going to kill him before he has a chance to respond.
Nice autism.
Your autistic outbursts aren't welcome here, however.
I recommend you take it to gamefaqs or reddit, child.
Literally the only times I get hooked by Roadhog is when he sneaks up on me, or when the Roadhog is shit at aiming, and aims for one of my team mates and hit me instead. That doesn't change the fact that the hook shouldn't just be a "get a free kill" skill for Roadhog.
Are you illiterate? Literally every dictionary has a definition of literally that suits my use. Examples:
dictionary.com
merriam-webster.com
thefreedictionary.com
dictionary.cambridge.org
The fact that you don't know this can only mean that you're children, or have the mental maturity of one.
you have no argument okie doke
Don't even play the game, but wow that is hilarious. You can just let someone walking into that hook thing, and then they win. I thought the hook pull would at least give you time to react, but it happened faster then the blink of a eye. How would you avoid that thing?
my only problems with the hook is the range and that dva can't block but he needs some range on it to counter pharah but Jesus Christ it doesn't need to go that far
you cant avoid it
its a giant wall that is coming at you
hoping for the user to be bad at aiming is your only chance to survive that
He is complete horseshit and virtually every community except Sup Forums accepts it, I can only assume Sup Forums is full of roadhog mains
A character with that much health should not be doing that much damage, and definitely not at zero actual risk to himself and with no punishment whatsoever for fucking it up.
If any other damage dealer or tank went in for the kill and fuck up badly and miss, they die, and even then they will have to actually do something more than an instant one shot and put themselves in a more vulnerable position.
Roadhog? Nah, just give the hook a go and if you miss no biggie, just try again in 6 seconds. When you get it you get a kill, great job!
>shouldnt be a free kill
but he has to land the hook to get the kill. it isnt free, and its a built in combo, he literally feeds teams with ultimates just by doing his job, he has to have some way of singling out someone who gets too ballsy
>It's another complain about a random OW character thread
Even at this early point in the game's lifespan Blizzard is listening to all the shitters and buffing/nerfing until some heroes are absolute trash. I swear some of you people won't be fucking happy until they make every hero have a 1 damage 1 shot pistol and no ults/skills.
Oh, I'm not who you were replying to. Nor do I bother trying to argue with autists. Sorry.
Take my advice though and whine elsewhere. Maybe someone who shares your opinions will discuss it with you
Why?
Wat. But if its a wall, how would it miss? So you have to hope that they will pick someone else instead of you? Cause missing seems impossible if its a wall.
Fucking delete your account jesus christ
He's hard-countered by Bastion.
I thought he was OP myself so me and my team went 100% Roadhog on a goof. We were doing okay, then they set up Bastion and he killed us all. I wonder if Bastion does bonus damage. He killed us so fast it was suspicious.
literally useless for anything else.
>Tank?
Squishy as shit and has no teamplay
>Flanker/solokiller?
Outclassed by any other flanker
>DPS?
Extremely low outside of a burst.
Hes not needed in any situation and reall can only be used if all other roles are covered.
I wish my husbando was more useful...
hes the worst tank tied with winston. ult battery for enemy. absolutely destroyed by mccree and zenyatta, both who were buffed to the high heavens this patch. if someone picks roadhog, the enemy team comp better be known and terrible as he is a detriment to your team now.
>He's hard-countered by Bastion.
>He can hook bastion out of Turret
Hes literately the hard counter to bastion that isnt genji
Jesus, people like you are why McCree was made useless at short range.
The fucking hero made to be able to stun and kill Tracer's and Genji's now can't even do that because his fan the hammer could also kill tanks so retards who just didn't have the sense to avoid letting him get close (the same way tanks shouldn't let Reaper get close) instead made his short range to weak to kill even low health heroes reliably.
Keep moving and his hook probably isnt going to hit you
He only has 100 more health than other tanks and he needs it because he has no form of shield and is entirely close range
His damage is easy to avoid unless you're stupid enough to be in range of his attacks
His combo is literally all he has, if you don't get hooked, he won't kill you
He can self heal because he has no way of preventing damage like every other tank in the game. If you're shooting him during his healing you'll basically nullify it anyway.
You can't both for the speed of it and the terrible tick rate meaning that even if you could the game favours the attacker so you just move out of the way, teleport back to where you were and get caught anyway.
The only winning move is to not play, you basically need to play a character who never needs to put himself in a position where he can be hooked or you are basically going to randomly get hooked and die through no fault of your own and there's not much you can do about it.
>Get hooked by Roadhog on Well as Winston
>Fall into the pit
>Monkeyjump back out and fuck up his shit
Is there a better feeling?
Bastion outranges him by a mile and does unbelievable damage to him. In an open area, Roadhog is a huge target and dead meat.
He can be good at breaking through reinhardt stalemates. If you rein when he drops his shield, you've just destroyed their position. If you're not playing with shitters then you can easily organize a push after that
Plus he's a really good anti-flanker, and is good to remove enemies from the point. His use isn't as obvious as other heroes, but he's a really good off-tank designed to bust up enemy positioning
youtube.com
that video explained their hitbox pretty well
So is anyone else you donut.
All he needs to do is peek around the corner and throw a hook and the bastion is dead.
Hell, genji cant even secure Bastion kills all the time
is there a character we didn't have a "its op" thread about?
i even saw zen/d.va op threads pre patch aswell
Bastion counters everyone in an open area, including genji outside the 3 seconds of reflect
Hard CC in general is a terrible idea for an FPS game and most of the game's more major problems stem from it, particularly in such a low tick rate. It's why McCree was bullshit and why Roadhog is too.
did you happen to get hooked by a guy named hotgaydad69
This. You are correct on every aspect. Hes great at anti flank and messing up tanks but thats really it. Hes a very niche pick imo
It's advertising bait. None of them are genuine. Just to get people talking about the game
If the enemy team has a roadhog or winston you need a reaper. If they have a Dva of Zarya you need a mei. It's not hard people.
Seriously, next time you are fighting a dva go mei and just freeze her over and over while your team takes potshots. I have made Dvas ragequit with the Chilly bitch.
winston cant kill roadhog in any situation. its like saying you shit on reaper - you die. every time.
>you basically need to play a character who never needs to put himself in a position where he can be hooked
Did you mean "you need to counter him with a hero he can't easily kill"?
How unfair for a game all about different heroes with different abilities to expect you to switch if you've selected a hero that the enemy can kill easily. You shouldn't have to change, everyone else should.
Yeah but Roadhog especially. Huge slowmoving meatpuck that soaks up all the bullets and has no evade. Bastion kills Roadhog UNBELIEVABLY fast. You are dead so quick.
wall jumping up and behind him as LuciOOOOOH and doing back
...
Here we go OP, im gonna meme you hard.
HES A GIANT ULT BATTERY :^)))))))))))
Use reaper even though he will get blown the fuck out in one hit.
He's totally balanced and in no way an attack character/point bully in a game with small objective areas.
>slow moving
>Has the same move speed as 85% of the cast
Bastion kills Roadhog UNBELIEVABLY fast. You are dead so quick.
I dont think you understand how fast you can peek and throw a hook. Unless the bastion is already aiming and shooting, youre always going to kill a set up bastion if you can peek a corner.
Hell Im sure you can even combo him if hes prefireing you
No, that's not what I said.
His hook is inherently broken and the only way to deal with it is to never interact with it. Saying you are 'countering' him suggests you are interacting with and outplaying him in some way. No, if you are interacting with Roadhog you are going to randomly die because he is a stupid character. The only way to 'win' is to refuse to ever interact with him at all and fight him where he literally cannot do anything.
Not because it's good game design or a sick tactical counterplay, it's because he is horseshit and no one can actually compete with him when on anything but a massively lopsided footing.
>missed more than half the time
>47% accuracy
Protip bro, the hook as an insane vertical hitbox, aim above people. like you can aim an entire Pharah hitbox above somone and it'll hand the hook.
You're currently making an appeal to definition, which is a logical fallacy. The fact that you don't know this can only mean that you're a child, or you have the mental maturity of one.
Fact
The only people that make these threads are the ones that main one character, usually genji bastion or hanzo
the only two Imba characters are tracer and mccree. And that's because the rest of the cast just sucks.
It's not the heroes being overpowered it's the fact that everyone else has such a low kill potential unless their fucking skills and stars are aligned.
hottest gayest daddiest
those are people who not only main those characters, but go in solo and never think about playing this with your team
>you use the word incorrectly! It doesn't mean what you think it means!
>look, it says here that it means what I think it means
>THAT'S A DEFINITION YOU CAN'T USE THAT TO CONFIRM WHAT A WORD MEANS THAT'S A FALLACY
Wow, the only thing you're more desperate about is having your dick touched, you disgusting virgin pig.
Or, crazy idea here, what if you used a longer range character? Or try this one, how about a character that moves too quick for most people to target accurately? And here's just one more solution, GIT GUD
I fucking play Pharah, Junkrat, and Lucio most of the time and I have never had an issue with Roadhog. Sometimes his hook is bullshit and gets me from around corners, I will admit that needs fixing, but its so uncommon it's not even remotely game breaking. Roadhog is a little bitch at even medium range, aim for his head dip shit. And if you're too incompetent for that, you can get environmental kills on a lot of maps, there is nothing more satisfying than killing a tank in a single hit
That's what I said
