"nerf"
It's actually a buff.
>FtH fires 15% faster
>McCree can shoot from flasbang at .35 instead of .5 now
It was hardly a nerf, more time to headshot after stunning is pretty big
More of a rework. Nerf the left-click, buff everything else. They're desperately trying to have McRee not be a one-trick pony.
>Nerf
He got buffed you silly cunt. Only thing that got nerfed was his range, which now is still better than what he had at launch.
>why chromatic aberration
>why dressing like a slut.
It's high noon
what did he mean by this?
Why not
what made him op? i haven't played much since they nerfed FtH.
Wait, did they tweak him.again? Last I remember was they buffed his left click damage falloff range.
HERO BALANCE UPDATES
Ana
Biotic Rifle
Rate of fire increased by 20%
Magazine size increased from 8 to 10
Developer Comments: While Ana has been very well received, she was showing to be a little bit weaker overall. In addition to helping her feel better to play, these changes should also increase her healing and damage output.
McCree
Peacemaker
Primary Fire
Damage falloff range decreased by 10 meters
Damage falloff amount is unchanged
As a result, even with this change, McCree’s effective range is still higher than it was at launch
Alternate Fire
Rate of fire increased by 15%
Flashbang
Recovery time (i.e. the amount of time before McCree can fire again) decreased from 0.5 seconds to 0.35 seconds
Developer Comments: McCree’s latest range increase helped him quite a bit, but it was a bit too much in the right hands. This change weakens his long range damage somewhat, but still keeps it stronger than it has been in the recent past. The other changes combine to allow him to land more alternate fire shots on targets that he has hit with Flashbang.
so how much is his effective range now? 10 meters sound like pretty fucking big nerf.
This is the first patch that didn't make me want to punch blizzard in its face
Thing is he was a better sniper than the snipers.
I was personally hoping for a widow buff cause i miss her and stuff but whatever
Pharahs in the sky will now take 3-4 shots to kill rather than 2 - 3 provided they're all body shots that's about all its going to change
Pharah needs a real counter. Direct hits with explosives need to do 100 damage and not 120.
Same thing with Junkrat tossing his concussion grenade in melee range to just shit on anyone who gets too close.
you know what would buff widow? If you learned to head shot.
assuming no headshots its 3 hit before and 5 hit now if he deals 40, 6 if he deals even less
So yeah mccree is back into the dumpster, time to get the 76 out of the closet
I agree completely but it shouldn't be mcree how he was before I think, it SHOULD be widow but they nerfed her pretty damn hard
Make up your fucking mind on him already for FUCK's sake, Blizzard. He's still shit compared to Reaper.
pharah has a real counter ya git, she pumps out the dp's but is slow as a rock, gets torn to pieces or forced behind cover by anyone with range on their weapon
>10 meters sound like pretty fucking big nerf.
Fuck you
Sincerely, Soldier 76 players.
Oh, fuck right off. Direct hits are harder to land with Pharah's rockets than most of the rest of the cast's projectiles. And splash damage was nerfed so much it barely tickles.
120 is too low if anything. You need two direct hits to kill even a Tracer.
>a better sniper than the snipers
Half the cast are better snipers than snipers because there's only one "sniper" who can actually snipe.
what? soldier has no damage falloff.
TIME FOR LUNCH
Here is the new range
meant for
he could definitely use it, esp when tacticool visor is up
He's had it for months it's just that you have to be so far away almost no one notices.
>The one hero Blizz can't balance is a fucking cowboy with a single fire revolver
wew
pretty soon ana will just never reload and have infinite darts
nah soldier is fine, he probably is the only reliable counter to pharah now, the hero that apparently needs to be viable at all cost for blizzard
It's so Goddamn retarded. Literally just make his movespeed faster, have a kinda meh falloff range, and have his combat roll with a lower cooldown, no ammo reload, and invincibility frames. Make him fairly movable and a more midrange skirmisher. It's that fucking easy, Jesus Christ Bliz.
What about the entire Defense hero lineup + Symmetra?
>invincibility frames on his roll
no
Old was best.
Soldier damage falloff starts at 35m, post-buff-pre-patch mcreee was 30m, now it's 20m
you can go look at ranges in training mode
giant chink tits.
If you make him faster he'd be either tied with the fastest or faster than the whole cast
also invincibility frames fucking kek senpai, thats some RIOT tier balancing you brainstormed
Depends on how the falloff is spread out, before mcreee had full damage out to 30m but hit minimum damage at 35m, if it's 20/25 he'll kind of suck, if it slowly decreases from 20-35m he'll still be really good
>not giving McCree some form of evasive maneuvering to give him a mid-range skirmish feel
Shaking my head.
No it wasn't, go fuck yourself.
>he plays a blizzard game expecting balance
>shooter
>more "classes" than WoW
>far more than you need in a shooter
>far too many to be balanced
>blizzard is shit at balance anyway
Do you all just jerk it to Tracer's ass or something?
Yes it was, His new ranges are too far for 70 fucking damage.
no
Are you saying Symmetra has a balance problem?
>Literally viable for only a week
Back to the Reaper and Genji spam.
s76 can do the same damage out to 35 meters, has better burst, moves faster, and can heal himself
>classes
excuse me faggot, but they are called heroes.
Nigger, he is literally the slowest 2 offensive hero in the game thanks to his asinine cooldowns on a combat roll. Even Pharah can utilize mobility better.
what about a cowboy who excels picking off targets with single fire headshots in se ult it literally sniping people in one shot makes you think he should be a skirmisher
It's understandable. The kind of fixes Mccree needs basically just boils down to finding the sweetspot between useless and overpowered in numbers. It's not really something that can be done without bouncing things around a bit too see what lies where.
no, i jerk it to tracer's dick
He's not supposed to be mobile you friendless neet
Welp, back to playing fucking s76 I guess.
Enjoy getting fucked by Pharahs and anybody with half a brain who knows not to get close to you.
>can do the same damage
no he can't, he has a manditory .5 second cooldown now between shots.
Mcree does 70 damage a shot at .5 seconds a round. 420 damage for 3 seconds.
76 however does 17 damage a round at 5 rounds a second. But he now has that damn manditory .5 second gap to get accuracy back.
68 damage a second * 3 = 204 damage every 3 seconds to be as accurate as McCree.
With the aim nerf to 76 he does 50% less DPS then McCree does.
Get learnt ya faggot.
Soldier 76 should have never been nerfed.
McCree
Junkrat
These are the two strongest characters in the game
>One of the most skill reliant heroes
>Literally fucking useless if you can't aim well
>Almost no mobility or survivability of any kind if directly engage
>Hard countered by half the cast
>Soft countered by anyone with a brain
>One of the most useless and easily shut down ults in the game
>Shittiest CC in the game
>"Lol lets nerf his range so he can get fucked even more by heroes with any sort of mobility or close range killing power."
Way to make one of the only fun heroes in the game a handicap for your team 90% of the time.
>Junkrat
Play pharah and watch him cry
but how can i play pharah without having every single counter nerfed to the ground?
Why would you waste time with perfect accuracy when the spread is still perfectly able to hit people anyway?
McCree is overpowered as fuck
>spread is still perfectly able to hit people anyway
lol, no. you are a bad 76 with a very very low accuracy rate.
Why waste time playing solder76 when McCree is better in every way?
Serious? I hope they didn't nerf him on console, it's hard to get hits with him.
>t. Junkrat player
Which is why Pharahs got literally free reign in ranks 60+ before McCree got buffed
Because she's so easy to counter.
I fucking love it when Pharah mains cry about "INDIRECT NERFS". Holy shit, you can tell who the dumb brown fever niggers are so easily.
and they still haven't fixed the ranking system
I would go tell kaplan to kill himself if it weren't impossible to post on bnet forums
You can fire 8-9 shots a second and maintain perfect accuracy, you need to wait .05 seconds or 50ms inbetween bursts of 4, not .5 seconds, you only need to wait longer if you fire more than 4 rounds at a time
Careful, you'll get arrested and a 250k fine for that.
>Pharah's rockets are hard to aim
This is a shit meme. Everyone who isn't Tracer or Genji moves far too fucking slow to avoid the rockets, and even the best Pharah players literally just hold down LMB while aiming because there is no ammo and therefore no punishment for missing.
its hard to take anything you say seriously when you burden it with slurs desupai
>Pharah
Mcree
>and they still haven't fixed the ranking system
I think they said somewhere that they'll rework it in the next season.
>50ms between bursts
That is wrong, it was 400ms before the patch. It's not 400ms, 450ms and then 500ms.
Was pretty damn necessary desu. Surprised they acted on it so quickly.
Now they just need to tone down Zen's discord and address the glaring issues of the defense class as whole at higher levels of play.
>and even the best Pharah players literally just hold down LMB while aiming because there is no ammo and therefore no punishment for missing.
it's 8 shots lol
>give McCree a buff
>call it necessary when he had 100% pick rate already
>nerfing Zenyatta
She already has two hard counters.
You make a direct hit with Pharah and you'll take off about half of a target's health.
You make a direct hit with McCree, Junkrat, Hanzo or basically anyone else and they are dead.
You use Phara's ult and you might kill someone if you concentrate the fire long enough without getting shot out of the sky.
You use McCree, Junkrat, D.Va or Reapers ult and you kill everyone in a large radius near instantly.
Six shots, not eight.
5 shots
>chromatic aberration
NO STOP REEEEEEEEE
So is McCree an X-Men fan?
STOP COMPLAINING YOU GOYS
>Pharah's ult takes forever to kill someone!
>McCree's ult kills people in a large radius instantly!
my little pharah can't be this retarded
weird, i have no idea why i thought it was 8 considering i practically main her
Pharah has good burst damage, but a lot of the cast has much better DPS. If you don't hit people directly as Pharah, you always get out DPS'd.
And she does have to reload, she can't fire forever.
There's plenty of punishment for missing.
what the fuck is chromatic aberration?
When are they nerfing Bastion and Torbjorn into oblivion?
I don't care if they're not OP. I'm sick of seeing them every match and just want people to stop playing them.
Is this a joke? Because both Hanzo and Junkrat deal the exact same damage on a direct hit as Pharah and they don't have the advantage of vertical repositioning
He was pretty shit pre buffs senpai, zero reason to pick him over S76.
They gave him too fucking much. If you don't run Lucio/Zen you auto lose and 50% damage increase is just fucking absurd and pushes out every tank that isn't Reinhardt/D,Va and Pharah out of the meta
>nerfing zen again
He is finally somewhat viable (even after the -5 points damage nerf) and you fucks want to nerf him again?
junkrat does the same dh damage as pharah. hanzo literally has 5 more damage at max charge and its harder to hit. everyone else does same or (most of them) less. the fuck are you on about?
>I don't have to aim
>It mostly does instant kills
>But it's not overpowered, nope!
my little cowboy can't be this brokeback
