this game is objectively bad
why people still playing this shit?

>Artist draws casual Hanzo
>It looks good, people ant it in-game
>It's finally in
>The part that's visible in the comic, upper body, looks alright for the most part
>Pants look like shit
It feels sometimes like this game is cobbled together by 5 different companies. Considering they outsource most event skins it's not surprising I guess.

Don't bully him please

The same reason people drink CocaCola, because its a well known brand.
There is literally no other reason.

>Blizzard drones will defend this

Wait, they outsource the skins? Then what do all the schmucks at Blizzard do all day? Ban people who say fag and attend daily diversity meetings?

>objectively
you don't get to legitimize your opinion by casually adding this word
I share the same sentiment, though

>hardly visible eyes
At least he looks properly Asian now.

Make 3 heroes a year and listen to gold shitters on reddit for balancing advice.

Probably? They might be the ones designing the skins, I don't know how much freedom the outsourcing company does, but yes, most event skins are outsourced.

His smile and optimism: gone

>3-4 months for a single skin
What is even going on over there? This is so hilariously incompetent development for a game that makes so much money.

Now this is bad. Who thought this was a good idea?

No matter how many money they make, if the dev team is small, things are gonna take time. We are talking about activision-blizzard, they probable have a bunch of interns doing pretty much everything and a couple of guys living the dream.

hahahahaha

It has to go through several design phases and get approved by a billion different corporate shmucks before its even allowed to be in the game user

>Comic for this skins made Hanzo cute as hell
>Release this abomination

How do you fuck it up so badly, I dont understand

Sad Honzo

thingken of scatters?

It takes 2-3 months when people make mods in weeks that looks fantastic but blizzard don’t let them in their games.

the fuck

I like shooters but I'm terrible at them. Overwatch is the only shooter I can play where I will not get raped by autistic koreans on 60mg of ritalin.

Coke tastes great, you fag.

More like Coke is the only type of pop that tastes drinkable

Basically a modder can decide what they want and start working right away but a lot of people work on each skin at once going from one stage too another.

The designer(s) give the concept artists what to draw then the concept artist(s) draw what they think they want, this goes back and forth making more and more changes until they get the final design, only then does it get modeled then animated.

An individual modder only really needs to make a design, model it and animate it.

Overwatch is the worst made game by Blizzard. All the others are shit too.
I don't understand why people support thie piece of garbage

fuck you Pepsi Cherry's great

what the fuck have they done to hanzo
is he about to an hero on the day of christmas?

>Hero Mission vs. Overwatch

It's a game with little to no skill needed, so people who don't want to get good at games like CSGO and TF2 will play Overwatch and feel accomplished.
on top of that, the loot box and leveling system dig their hooks into players really early on, leading to massive amounts of people mindlessly buying new loot boxes by the dozens (I can testify for this first-hand, they caught me for a month before I realized what happened).

what happened with his skin?

What the fuck, why?

>still no blizz world map or skins
wow they really work FAST over there HUH?

probalby spending all their manpower from the low level intern to high level execs on banning people who are mean

Wait, people's portraits actually reflect the skin they have equipped now?
About fucking time.

>Made him look 20 years older
>White beard

GOOD LORD!

>Worked at mocap studio
>Had to push 12 seconds a day
>Part of a team of 24, a dozen night shift and morning shift to produce 5 minutes a week minimum BODY AND FACE + LIPSYNC & EYE TRACK
>The biggest slow down is weekly approvals from contracting studio
>Had to redo Hulk in Thor:R three times because mark put his helmet way too low and jiggered up the tracking on his eyebrows

>There are students in the animation college I came from that put out in 6 weeks for a final assignment for a modeled, textured and rigged game quality character model
>These fuckers at blizzard need 3 goddamn weeks for approval on CONCEPT ALONE when students did their concepts over the weekend
>The quality of the models will be a make or break moment for portfolio show

You know what sucks about Blizzard? They are a family.
They won't tell each other to hurry up or apply pressure for an upcoming deadline, instead they throw cash at outsourced freelancers to clean up after their own projects.
Soyboy liberals in a cut throat industry, not even once.

Yes they make beautiful games, then they smother them to death not by content but by patch balancing tweaks because some designer is balancing the game 8 hours a day monday to friday and he has to something to keep his paychecks coming in.
Much like the costume designers on AAA marvel films, costumes were done last movie but they need to redo it to keep their jobs.

Fuck you, i'm gonna bully him for being such a fucking fag

lmao

and also if the modder, through lack of feedback and iteration, fucks up and the result is shit, no one cares or even notices

how the fuck are they supposed to resolve the fact that carrie fisher died?

People die user not everything needs a giant battle to explain it.

yeah but they had a good chance of doing it like 30 min in

>Sup Forums vs Sup Forums

>The ro(vir)gin

kek i didn't even notice this

>overwatch "artists" did it again

This is what happens when you hire based on affirmative action

THE DRAGON STIRS WITH ME

I’m having visions of David productions reading all this.

God I wish they’d see that the cons are way worse than the pros of saving a bit more money. THEYRE FUCKING BILLIONAIRES.

BLIZZARD ARE CREATIVELY BANKRUPT.
STEALING FROM TF2 ONCE MORE.

The new game mode they implemented this patch is LITERALLY a ripoff of Evolve. Like a direct plagiarism.

Just as Lucioball was Rocket League

the bastion skin is cute as heck tho

> shitty alive game rips off shitty dead game so nobody has to buy the shitty dead game

What’s the problem here?

GOD, IM GOOD AT BEIN AN OWL

An animation studio? What's going on there?

eh, gameplay's too simple to call it a ripoff of anything, anyone could've come up with those game designs

Too bad Lucio can’t flip around in the air.
It’s a temporary game mode and I don’t think 1v5 things were just an evolve thing. But hey, why not. “Muh plagiarism”.

...

>Evolve: "5 hunters fight a monster who has to run around the map collecting food to power up. once he powers up, the hunters have to run from him instead"
>new overwatch mode: "5 hunters fight a monster who has to run around the map collecting food to power up. once he powers up, the hunters have to run from him instead"

Activision blizzdrones

She’s cuter doe and it Fits her theme well.

Also she’s got an entire owl motif going on, unlike it just being a mask.

>reinstalled tf2 for the first time since 2011
>having way more fun in every match than I ever had in overwatch

>I am a proud Blizzard fan and I could care less about the quality of the figurine; in fact, I like that it's low quality because that means my money went to improving the game for everyone to enjoy instead of being put into working on my little piece of plastic. As far as I'm concerned I made a $150 donation and Blizzard spent it wisely.

as basic as a game of tag

LMAO

Warcraft: literally a plagiarism of Warhammer
Starcraft: LITERALLY a near 1:1 plagiarism of Warhammer 40K
Hearthstone: literally a cash grab plagiarism of Magic
HoTS: literally a plagiarism of dota
Overwatch: literally a plagiarism of TF2

Has there ever been a SINGLE original thing that Activision-Blizzard has done?

Pandas

...

lmao if you're going to support a blizzard game at least put a couple hours into HotS a week, that's the only game with a blizz-like team still on it

DO NOT use voice lines or you will be banned. Your money is ours, so shut the fuck up and take it.
Understand, pig?

Well I meant for Blizzard they have no real excuse for outsource since it’s fucking blizzard.

I think David production might be more inclined to do the Korean outsourcing more though. They’ve done good work but they’re not exactly huge, you know?. Jojo part 4 had some drop in quality because of it. Makes me scared about wtf gonna happen to part 5.

So they just reused Medivh's skins from hots in addition to stealing from tf2. That's so much better.

boop

>Koreans
>Shooters

>plagarism of TF2
I wouldn't say plagiarism because that would require the OW cast to have at least 1/100 the personality the TF2 cast has.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

>Well I meant for Blizzard they have no real excuse for outsource since it’s fucking blizzard.
There is literally no one competent left in Blizzard.
Any time they want to make something more complex than a recolor of an existing model they HAVE to oursource it.
Their current staff are affirmative-action hires with pink haircuts who have never done anything more complex than indie platformers.

this is why videogames have stagnated. people willingly put up with subpar garbage and thank the companies that produce it because it makes them feel good. you can show fans that they're huffing a sack of horse shit then they'll have the audacity to call you a slew of names and tell you you hate having fun. just fucking crash this industry into the cold, muddied ground, and don't bother placing a grave marker on the burial site.

dont get all the hubbub the one on the right looks even better

BREAKING NEWS

TF2 CREATED OWLS!

I LOVE HAVING AN OWL HEAD

HOOT
HOOOOT

>HOW EMBARRASSING

>people willingly put up with subpar garbage and thank the companies that produce it because it makes them feel good.

honest i think its just because every since playing videogames stopped being an embarrassing hobby, there has been a large influx of people completely new to the game with much lower expectations and less 'refined' palates

I will never understand Blizzard:
>make a class-based team shooter
>say TF2 was one of it's biggest inspirations
>at the same time, make mastering a class a waste of time as well as making individual skill mean nothing
>get pissy and ban people who try anyway

>TF2 invented owls
kys

I see what you mean. When a east indian dude got a job at the studio I worked at he apparently lied about his record and he was fired a couple days later when holes started to appear in his work. I suspect he later broke our NDA because we shortly after that had a meeting about leaking internal software and methodology.

I get the feeling if such a person were hired at Blizzard they'd 'be more understanding' and start to slowly train him (but only so far because as seen in WoW recently, there's a plateau of quality that cannot be breached because no one's good enough to teach or are too busy to clean up sloppy animation.). Content output would be hindered by lifting this dead weight and outsourcing more to the same freelance guys that did a tenth of the game characters for them already.

...

The problem is that they fell for the MOBA esque character meme. Instead of having 9 classes that all play off of each other in interesting ways they have nearly 30 heroes that have a significant amount of overlap and are nearly impossible to balance.

L O fucking L bitch
>Mfw peoples taste in life is this bad
i bet you put ketchup on your mac n cheese or even curries, soy boy as fuck

to be fair TF2 sort of kicked-off the second wave of class-based shooters, so everything they did was new and interesting, along with being pretty much the only show in town for that kind of gameplay. also to say they didn't add more classes is partially untrue, considering all the new weapons and equipment they added that drastically changes how each class plays.

I could balance Overwatch in an evening

Having someone who is platinum ranked balancing the game was bound to lead to failure after failure

>I only drink water and tea!
>I am mentally incapable of not letting everyone know how inferior they are for not drinking water and tea!

to say that coke taste bad is almost factually incorrect, the only thing you can criticize is that its too sweet.

JUST

its how blizzard balanced star craft, everything was balanced for competitive play regardless of how different it was from how 99% of people play.
