youtube.com/watch?v=elN-QGyToxM

>new Ultimate (Shield generator)
>can choose from two Ultimates
>full number of turrets available (6)
>new ability: moving barrier
this gon be gud

>new social feature to stick with current team and party up when you find a good team (instead of reshuffling again)

Break it down for me. In small, easy to eat pieces.

ok. read the OP

But did they make her ass fatter?

>doesn't change her shit gun
What a waste of time Blizz

A scrawny cuck talks at you about how shit symmetra is and I assume how she'll get fixed. I dunno I didn't get that far.

>that winston
Every time.

you seriously think its shit? lol

>can choose from two Ultimates

is this new trend for future updates? its sure boring to play same character with same skill forever.

...

>lol
Kill yourself underage

The bubbles move slow as fuck and you have to charge them.
Her main fire has shit range and needs to charge up to do damage meaning anyone can kill you in that time or just cheese out.

Symmetra is best waifu but a shit character.

fucking this.

all we needed was her gun to have longer range, and her turrets to cool down faster and fire sooner after they're set.

You have to learn how to control and funnel people to use her M2, plus they said her M1 will have a slightly extended range.

Turrets stock to 6, cooldown down to 10s from 12s, and M1 has slightly longer range.

>Turrets stock to 6

wasn't it always at 6?

good if they changed the rest.thanks.

>her shit gun
>t. noob scrub
git gud you idiot.

No, it only stocks to 3 currently, which is why you rush out from spawn to the chokepoint to try and place 4 turrets before the round even starts. Now there's no need to rush because you can immediately place all six, stock up to six, and then completely move your 'nest' to a new location without having to wait for your turrets to replenish individually after 3.

No, you start with six now

>ywn make love to symmetra's thighs

will she poo in the loo this time?

So romantic!

I would have said ditch the retarded turrets and have her focus on putting shield "walls" up and to give her team shields.
And make her gun shoot the little bubbles fast with each doing like 20 damage, their travel speed is still on the slow end though.
Her alt-fire would either be the shield "wall" or the charged bubble or maybe like a focused shield.
Literally no change
>playing anything besides Mccree and Hamzo
Everything feels weak afterwards

At that point it stops being a redesign and becomes a completely different character, you fucking scrub. Stop being shit at the game.

Should have given her an Aegis Reflector

Whta's wrong with his nose?

ah I see, thanks.
thats much better.

Poo in the Loo

jewish genetics

nothing, goy

...

Exactly, Symmetra's design was shit from the start.
There's no "getting good" in this game you tard, the only way to get better is to just improve your aim because this game is so casual.

I imagine just for her because she has that architect/builder vibe, but hopefully we see afew more alternative ults.

So glad I got the 'destroy three teleporters' achievement before they got rid of multiple heroes in quick play and now with this, it'll be impossible.

>Get almost every Symmetra legendary except that one recolor
>Got almost every emote/highlight intro
>Only played her for 5 mins
>Keep getting duplicates

Here's hoping that I actually might play her now.

But they are extending its range now

>There's no "getting good" in this game you tard
That's bullshit.

There are lots of ways of getting good at this game.
You have to know what characters are counters to your character. You have to know what situations your character is good in (i.e. don't have your genji out in the open, if you are mei stick to the group etc)

What single player games have good archery gameplay (no skyrim memes please)?
I'm itching for some bow action but I'm not gonna pick Hanzo

>Waifu is finally going to get fixed
Feels great man

Symmetra is like the one character I never get anything for

I was lucky enough to get the summer games emote for her but beyond that, I have like 1 skin and some sprays and that's it since I don't bother to buy stuff for me

Meanwhile I have 60 unlocks on Mei, none of which were bought

Turret change should fix their main problem of being too hard to keep up and too easy to take out.

Photon Shield is a neat idea, just not sure how good it will be until we see how much hp it has, how fast it moves, and how big it is. Was kind of hoping for a stationary small barrier but this works too.

Not sure how I feel about shield generator. Right now Symmetra is even worse than she was last patch because it takes even longer for her to get her ult up. Really hoping they increase her ult charge back to how it was before the 25% increase on all characters.

My name Jeff

Holy shit this guy talking sounds so annoying.

Far cry 3 and 4 are kinda fun to play with a bow, crysis 3 has a fun bow too, with a few different arrow warhead types.

How soon is "very soon"

Today? Its Tuesday and this is usually patch day

Wtf how does this photon barrier work

Explain it like im 7

He used to get beat up a lot in school.

Rein Barrier that moves forward on its own

Long ranged shield

Imagine Mei's ice barrier but as a hard light construct, smaller and weaker.

Know when mom and dad are fighting in their room? This is like mom using the bed as a shield.

Imagine you fire her RMB, but the projectile is a shield instead. That's what I inferred, anyway.

Likely next month when the Christmas event starts

No she still has the shitty RMB click

This replaces her shields she gives to teammates

VERY SOON™

>keyword is "imagine"

>You
>Reading comprehension

She now has a dispenser in addition to her mini-sentries and teleport.

>Hey symmetra they have a widowfag gimme dat shield senpai
>say no more

He sounds like a pedophile teacher to be brutally honest.

The party button at the end of each match is a great idea.

No because thats when we get Oasis and they said that thats next update

barrier sounds really good, if it has significant hp and the cooldown isnt too extreme
it suits her w+m1 weapon really well and lets her play aggressively

They said they're shooting for December

>all those changes
>she's still shit on offense

kek

...

KotH is gonna be fucked with that Shield Generator

How much shield do you think it's going to give? I imagine at least 50.

He says in the video they buffed the range

>gee Symm! how come Blizzard lets you have two ults?

That shield ultimate is the only thing anyone will care about in this, and I guarantee it will be taken out by a stiff breeze.

Shit will probably have like 100 hp and 50 shield or something ridiculous like that so it will die in almost one hit.

The 6 turret thing doesn't really help since they are taken out so easily anyway.

No one will use Symmetra after a week of using her in PTR because it sounds like they didn't get rid of the busy work, they just changed the busy work.

>kill yourself
>underage
>unskilled
>waifu
>shit character
user you are a meme

>group up button at the end of the game

nice

Hearty kek

My exact thought process. It's almost like Blizzard planned this, this will start some major fucking crybaby stuff about how she gets to have two ultimates to choose from and other players don't and it will keep the game's name thrown around via word of mouth through this incessant whining bitching and complaining.

>Photon Barrier lets her approach and escape more efficiently, making her more viable on offense and KoTH
>Shield generator means shes more viable on final points and KoTH
>6 turrets makes her more viable in general

Now we just need the ability to recall the teleporter manually and itll be the dream

>Blizzard planned a change in a blizzard game

what are you fuckin retarded?

They should've removed that stupid 6 person limit on the teleporter instead of buffing the health.

This is all fine and dandy but when are they removing Roadhog's one shot? There's absolutely no reason a tank should have that with such low cooldowm

Teleporter currently has 200 HP, so I imagine it and the shield generator will have 200 or more health, likely split evenly down between health and shield.

6 turret thing matters because you can immediately place them down and begin charging stock to another 6. If the enemies kill your turrets, which they will eventually, you'll have 6 in stock to drop another 6 in a new setting.

One of these things is not like the other
One of the this is autistic

Didn't think that was going to be the rework, but Im happy regardless. Having 6 stocks is a godsend. Glad to aee best girl get some more appreciation.
Now give her a few more sexy costumes and I'll be a happy faggot. A belly dancer/genie alt would get me diamonds

I meant they made her shit on purpose to correct it later with this bullshit 2 ultimate thing.

>I AM SHIVA, GOD OF DEATH

>scrubs are STILL complaining about Roadhog

Roadhog is the most fun character in the entire game

>hook people they die
>hooking people into the KOTH Pits
>get ult constantly because healing

>Whoever came up with this sheer fisting of an encounter can go fuck themselves. Do me a favor so I don't waste my guild's time on this kind of jackass shit-fest again, send me an email at [email protected] when you decide to A) Implement an encounter that wasn't designed by a retarded chimp chained to a cubicle A.)Get a Quality Assuarance Department C) Actually beta test the fucking thing and D) Patch it live. And please for god's sake -- do it in the order I laid out for you. Don't worry, I won't charge you a consulting fee on that one. And for good luck you might as well E) Pull your heads out of your asses. While you're at it rename the game to BetaQuest since you've used up you're alotted false advertising karma on the Bazaar and user interface scam of '01.Fix the Emperor encounter. Fix Seru. Rethink your time-sink bullshit. Fix all the buggy motherfucking ring encounters (I suggest you let whoever made the Burrower one do this since that dude apparently laid off the crack the rest of you were smoking). Fix the VT key quest. Fix VT (just guessing it's fucked up considering your track record). Don't have the resources to fix this stuff? Move the ENTIRE Planes of Power team over to fixing Shadows of Luclin AND DO IT NOW. If you don't fix Luclin, you jackassess will be the only ones playing the Planes of Power.

Gee Symmetra! How come your mom lets you have TWO ults?

They should just make her gun into the Shock Rifle from UT and make her primary fire do little damage so it doesn't turn into a sniper rifle. Then people good people can shock combo

>Bonus: have it do little damage but penetrate enemies.

kek

Based Jeff

Any word on when this patch will go live? I'm assuming next week...

AHHHHHHHHHHH STOP BLINKING SO MUCH YOU FAGGOT

It's nice to see HotS design philosophy applied to Overwatch. I think Blizzard understands that while they rely on e-sports more than ever and while their games are not designed to be as fair and competitive as they can be, you can still foster a strong following of high level play simply by virtue of the accessibility and entertainment for lower skilled players. I just wish they supported the same kind of community involvement in their games as you saw with BW and WC3. Balance in a game can be corrected in high level play by allowing map making and it would be good for their games and their fans to loosen the stranglehold on e-sports for their games.

it will be on PTR "very soon™"

Gold gun was worth it

Underated post

Already done

Probably coming to PTR next Tuesday since he said oasis will be coming in december shortly™ after poo is updated

Shock combo doesn't deserve to be on this game and you know it.

Alright, how do we fix Bastion?

>LIST OF HEROES WHO COUNTER BASTION
>Genji
>Pharah
>Sombra
>Hanzo
>Junkrat
>Widowmaker
>Roadhog
>DVa
>Ana

I honestly think he needs a rework or ability change to be made good as he stands right now.

So do we know if Symmetra is still going to be support or will she be moving to Defense where she should be?
