Since the latest update it's safe to say blizzard has no clue what they are doing with updates
Since the latest update it's safe to say blizzard has no clue what they are doing with updates
why?
>it's another "This game went to shit because Blizz won't nerf this character I'm too shit to counter!" episode
He mains roadhog
The game turned into Quake with the server browser. So I disagree.
What did they change?
Has this update gone live yet? I really want to use the server browser.
Deathmatch mode when?
It's live. Just played a game with the speed turned up to retarded and everyone is McCree with one-hit kills and flashbang disabled.
It was wild.
>it's safe to say blizzard has no clue what they are doing with updates
That happened back when they Ana and it fucked up the balance so badly that it''s only gotten worse
Anyone having trouble playing ctf? I'm playing on ps4 so it might just be me.
Roadhog babby got BTFO hard
Wait so it really is Quake now? We can make Rocket Launcher arenas and shit?
Holy fuck
>I'm playing on ps4
is reinhardt still a must pick on both teams? I get it, blizzard and reddit like him, he is the ultimate alpha male that many of the overwatch players can only dream of becoming, but comeon, its been that way since alpha and im tired of their policy of breaking the knees of every hero who dares to threaten reinhardt's utter superiority. Reinhardt doesn't add anything to the game, he only detracts from it, him and the healers, they bring the game to a slog.
Ctf is fucked on ps4 rn. Don't play the mode
is really server browser live? i dont wanna boot the game for dissapointment
How is bastion?
>Reinhardt doesn't add anything to the game
How about you add another class that can do what he does, stupid fuck. He will be a meta pick for as long as there exists a permanent shield that isn't on CD. But you'll never get that, so he will always be relevant with his multipurpose guard.
And why give a fuck about the meta? I play Reinhardt because he's fun to play, not because my team needs me to.
They put in a fast forward button on gameplay to make it play like Quake? sounds like a hilarious idea, although that fucking game could and did give you motion sickness from how stomach-churningly fast you could move.
yes
will dominate the meta until he's figured out. most likely until he's nerfed
Actually fucking viable now. Won't set up turret and get decimated in seconds.
I only read the patch notes but they mentioned being able to tweak variables like projectile speed for individual characters
>playing on ps4
Bastion essentially just got a shit ton of buffs and its made things a little weird.
He can make most dps run away now if they run in to him in recon mode 1v1.
>add another class that can do what he does
its not going to fix anything about the state of the game though
have you played custom games without healers or without reinhardts? the game is just 100x better without any of this moba shit
Is there an equivalent of instagib yet
Plus he can heal through beyblade and weeblade ults
>have you played custom games without healers or without reinhardts?
I've played games without meta picks and it plays just fine. Inb4 bronzie :^)))
>top console player switched to pc and became top pc player
yeah bro real big difference in skill in your babby game.
Pretty much everything about Bastion. Recon Mode has more ammo and is about as accurate as 76, Self Heal can be used while moving and taking damage, Sentry Mode has alot more spread and no headshots but has a passive 35% damage reduction
Not him but I play on ps4 too because I'm broke as fuck and got my console for free
>can swap to turret 0.5 secs faster
>still shreds shit even without headshots
>100 more bullets in sentry, 5 in recon
30% damage resistance in sentry and tank
>recon mode is actually viable with more bullets and accuracy
>repair as an alt fire is literally the best thing ever and already has losers whining about him being too OP
IT'S TIME
WE SHALL RISE AGAIN

roadhog got buffed outside of the hook CD
>DSPStanky
>top player
>le throw matches as Lucio man is not a top player
Yes.
But are there even people in the Korean servers that do this shit?
yea you're right
whom'st've'in'la is playing on Xbone
post your rank then
Read the patch notes, there are NO Roadhog changes
except a bugfix
In-game gamemode/hero stats numbers customization.
Not really modding or level creation, but still way better than the closed garden it was.
I think he directly survives several ults now.
Tracer can't kill him with her ult anymore.
Holy shit, he sounds fun to play. I already ironically mained him but this buff might just make it unironic.
>top console player switched to pc and became top pc player
AHAHAHAHAHAHH CONSOLEFAGS ACTUALLY BELIEVE THIS
I'm sorry what? 20% reduced scrapgun spread is a bugfix?
>Unreal Tournament
>1999
Just mod my shit up. Add whatever the fuck you want and stack that shit on top of each other. Go nuts.
>18 years later
>2017
>Overwatch
Here's a server browser and you can mess with some values I guess.
>Exit lobby menu
>Get this
That's a big gal
So did Blizzard fuck us again by releasing no hero despite the hype?
Are you reading the wrong notes or something?
...
It's a different target. Back in the day almost everyone who played was tech-saavy. Nowadays the public is casual so they make an easy to setup game.
Also, we can turn up the values to pretty much Quake 3/UT99.
>Custom phara = Rocket Arena
>Custom widow = Sniper Arena
>Instagib
We just need a deathmatch mode and we're good.
apologize.
It's all I can play on until I build a better PC in a couple of months. Will probably play it on there more than PS4, but I got some friends who play on it so those would be the exception.
All of the Overwatch youtube channels have an updated playlist so there's a good chance we're getting one very soon. Personally I think it will be tomorrow since they don't want to flood us with updates.
BTFO
>Also, we can turn up the values to pretty much Quake 3/UT99.
The core gameplay and mechanics are so far apart, so not really. It's also got absolutely nothing to do with skill levels and people back then sure as fuck weren't more tech-savy as people are today. I hacked together UT mods as a kid and I had no idea what was going on.
Even ignoring that, people who know what they're doing would be doing 99% of the work anyway. Blizzard just didn't give us the toolset to actually play with the game. Probably because someone would make Overwatch actually enjoyable to play.
>implying that's always a good thing
>implying that's not literally enforced by a handful of large corporate entities
Nice work, user
I hope it's tomorrow so they can just get it over with.
I hate the teasing crap.
We got the point, new hero coming, just do it.
GET FUCKED ROADKEK MAINS
>Implying anyone but you gives a shit
Well, till QuakeWatch- i mean Quake Champions comes out there's not much else to play, the DOOM multiplayer is dead as fuck, and if we can tweak OW a shitload, then it'll be better than it is now
They said they learned not to make the same mistake like they did with Sombra but we'll see.
Why is it so hard to find a custom game in the server browser that isn't "Everything at 500% so Zarya is literally unkillable" and "1v6 against a Torbjorn who has a 1500 health turret and gets ult in 5 seconds"
I tried to make a mode with more reasonable values and nobody joined
Bastion is absolutely retarded now
you could just play quake live even but I mean its pretty clear that youre one of those people who cant play anything that falls under top 10 most played
>4363 is #312
Was this taken after the leaderboard bug? Your top 500 rank is way too high for that SR
How do I get gud?
I hope they did.
They've done 3 teases outside the game, and revamped a map around it. That should be enough.
I'm honestly not trying to be contrary for the sake of it but unless we get actual modding tools then it's not going to make much of a difference.
It's crazy that Counter-Strike was once the shitter kids game that people went to because they couldn't handle arena shooters and now it's the most technical FPS out there because there's literally no other choice.
I don't even dislike overwatch but fucking hell it's got the same design as League of Legends where they're purposefully created a game where the same situations play out in the same way over and over again. There's so little thought involved, you're just railroaded down one track.
I would say feelsbadman but I gave up a on a new fun, fast, technical FPS game coming out a long time ago.
>server browser is literally just people flying around spamming skills and dying in one hit
and this is fun why? its funny for like 10 minutes then its just unbalanced cancer for sustained play
modes like head shot only is ok since you can practice, but everything else is meme tier garbage
>the expert super sleuth over here
>meme tier garbage
So like 98% of the game and its fanbase right?
I know because I have a higher SR than him but was lower ranked in top 500, which doesn't make sense :^)
Looks like they forgot to put his notes there
See
us.battle.net
no joke though
play call of duty
hitscans are easy to use, but the mobility and small maps are as arena as you can get nowadays, and with specialist abilities like blinks and speed boosts and teleports, shit gets fucked real quick
Maybe you need to git gud
What a bunch of retards, especially since the one I linked is the one you click on in the launcher
The fact they keep trying to nerf road hog proves they have no idea about game balance.
I've been playing Quake since its release. I was a teen when i bought an opengl compatible card so i could play Quake with better graphix. I've been playing Quake since before you were born probably.
I still do. But as a good friend once said, i don't want to waste my life away with one videogame. I want to waste my life away with a shitload of videogames.
You can't get stuck in the past, user. Time moves on and if i stay behind I'll probably never play again since nothing is as good as in the 90s.
Ow is a fun game to play after work. The fact that we can crank it up to Q3 levels of speed is pretty good and I'm happy about it.
I hope you find some joy in your life, user. Peace.
No new hero with the update?
The hero hasn't even been revealed yet. PAX is on March 10th.
I actually don't think CoD is terrible either, it's a fun alternative when you're looking for something different. It's a shame they completely fuck the PC versions up and at this point there's literally only 1-3K players on launch.
Hero always goes to PTR first.
I hope we get an actual update instead a teaser for a teaser for a trailer to be revealed at Blizzcon like the last time
it's regional
Overwatch twitter said they wouldn't be there but Blizzard does have a booth so who knows
>mfw I'm just waving to people as they ult next to me as Bastion while I just heal and kill them right after they finish
yep. quake modes are already popular.
Bastion is unstoppable now. Way faster, more accurate, and can heal while moving.
I just dominated Oasis as Bastion. This is nasty.
And I think I like it.
...
>check overwatch forums
>everyone is already crying for Bastion nerfs and how OP he is
i'm guessing Australian servers?
>server browser for community servers
>capture the flag mode
You have no idea what are you talking about, this is great.
