admit it, Sup Forums, the reason you hate overwatch is because teamwork is required in the game, and you -being a very socially challenged person- find it a very difficult task. in short, it's a game where no matter how you try to "get gud" would never earn you any success, just because of that damning limitation which is your social skills.

I dislike Overwatch because the people I know who play it are all obnoxious.
Not the game's fault, but eh.

No, Sup Forums hates it because it's popular

>fps game
>but also team based
is there anything more cancerous?

Overwatch is what happens when you over-focusgroup tf2. No soul, just ults and gatcha lootboxes

having a team based competitive game with a commie ranking system

>"admit it, Sup Forums"
automatic disregard

It is Tf2 with none of the over-the-top charm or bromance.

I don't hate Overwatch but I quit playing because it is a team based game in which no one is interested in working as a team. Shit's frustrating and I mostly stick to arcade now.
You could mitigate this by playing with friends of course, but that means you'd need friends.

overwatch is shit because of the simplified gameplay along with boring characters and maps

No, I hate it because it's poking at tanks and shields for 20 minutes to get 3 minutes of fun gun fights.
GM for season 2-5 here. 78 season 1. I'm just going back to cs go since Quake Champions is deader than f2p chinese fps games.

Battle royale mode when?

I've hated MOBAs since before most of Sup Forums was even born (~2004)

>I mostly stick to arcade now
Same, I only ever play Reinhardt in death match now, it's the only thing I find fun about the game now.

>implying teamwork takes social skills
Socializing requires """social skills""" like mindreading and presenting yourself in unrealistic ways, teamwork is about actually communicating clearly. There are games that require teamwork without sacrificing individual skill like OW.

>popular
me and all my friends dropped it, not to mention that queue time increased drastically before we actually stopped playing it, so i guess it wasn't just us.

it also doing worse on twitch then dota2 or fucking epic royale of all things.

but yea, keep pretending your shallow shitty game is popular, keep farming lootboxes for those limited time skins

i quit because its fucking boring and they come out with balance patches every 6 months

>Enter comp
>5 people pick DPS or defence heros
>All of them yelling for someone else to switch
Yes It's my fault that I need 3 other people to switch roles and not the fact that the meta has been 2/2/2 since pretty much launch yet there are a combined total of fourteen assault and defence picks with only 2 slots. Not to mention the assault and defence characters tends to be significantly more interesting to play.

I only play Mystery Heroes at this point and it's tons of fun.

No, we hate it because the community is made entirely of salty 14 year olds and toxic mid 20 year olds, the characters are bland, the combat is repetitve, the maps are poorly designed, and TF2 is better than it in almost every way.

overwatch's only real value is the porn

the game is casual baby trash for retards who can't tell it's shallow as fuck

its GID GUD you fokken loser.

Multiplayer-only games feel like I'm wasting my life doing the same thing over and over again, I'd much rather play something with at least a thin veneer of story so I've got a starting/ending point and a feeling that I've accomplished something by playing.

I dropped it because it's a single player game reluctantly played in teams. No one wants to work together. Games go nowhere. And the lootboxes are legitimately awful.

I love OW, I throw every time someone doesn't work around me.

Even with friends, people are forced to play roles they don't enjoy in order to win.

>I dislike something because of how other people act about it
Imagine being this much of a tool

Siege doesn't get such hate and the term git gud applies more to it than OW. It has to be something else.

>used to be shit at the game because my only shooter experience was 4000 hours of TF2
>went from rolling the dice with every shot from McCree to actually learning how to aim with 65% accuracy.
>I never have to rely on random crits again to get kills
theres no going back lads

B-BUT YOU ARE THE ONLY CONSTANT JUST PICK DPS AND CARRY BRAH IF YOU WERE GOOD YOU WOULD CLIMB :^)

I know it's bait but people already bumped the thread so it doesn't matter anymore:

some people hate overwatch but like tf2 and/or paladins which are team based as well, so basically you're wrong with your claim

BONUS FACT: even when I try to work as a team to win, pretty much nobody else does! in all 3 of these games

you actually think overwatch is a higher skilled game than tf2?

How league is doing?

>actually learning how to aim with 65% accuracy
just press E faggot

>because teamwork is required in the game

Every time I play my retarded teammates run in different directions and get killed.

there are people that can go from bronze to GM with sym like Stevo while trolling his way up the ranks. individual skill DOES matter

Good job, you figured it out. I hate teamwork. Not because I'm antisocial, but because I hate doing damage equivalent to slingshotting a handful of spaghetti noodles at someone because blizzard can't balance their game in a way which the "teamwork" is anything more than sticking together to hit numbers higher than a hundred on their health bar. I also straight out prefer games like quake and TF2 where I can put my brain on autopilot, go off alone, and get a satisfying gib-splattering frag with two shots or less without anyone screaming in my ear about every little mistake I make.

I play games for fun.

You mean soldier fortress 2? Why yes, how could you tell?

It's fun though I stay away from ranked because I suck and quick play is very chill. Haven't come across any salt that the game is apparently infamous for

I hate it because it's fucking repetitive

Honestly I miss the dumb shit from TF2 where you could just W+M1 to win as pyro or spending an entire hour never leaving the intel room as engie. You can’t really turn your brain off and relax in OW like that.

It's boring and it has no progression system. BNut instead of taking skill to play, like csgo where you can at least be proud of your shooting mechanics, all you have here is an imaginary pat on the bat for being a good sport.

I dislike overwatch for several reasons.
>rabid fanbase
>repetitive gameplay
>extortion based reward system
>overly family-friendly characters and story
>toxic competitive players
>the fanbase
>fucking children everywhere
>did I mention the fanbase?

This is now a TF2 thread

Sup Forums hates it because its popular, period.

I hate it because the gameplay is at it's core, flawed. The fact that healing is so powerful and prevalent means that damage other than nova damage is worthless, which encourages a pokey, mobaish playstyle, which is extremely frustrating in an FPS.

The fact that ultimates are so powerful and frequent means that half the game is about ult management instead of shooting. The game has so many heroes that it's ridiculously difficult to balance, and has never been in a well balanced state. You shouldn't ever bother even playing half of the cast because at any given time they're completely worthless. The game modes are trash except for payload; because of the impactfulness of ultimates, the 2cp and hybrid game modes are just poke back and forth until your team gets ults, they pop as few as them as possible to try to win the fight. Rinse and repeat. That gameplay loop gets extremely stale and repetitive after 500 games.

It's still a fun game to dick around with in casual, but since Blizzard has very explicitly set out to make a competitive shooter, and the game fails at that, the game is ultimately a miss.

Teammates bring you down, but that's not even a reason I dislike the game (it being made by Blizzard is the main one).

game has shit teambase mechanics though, it's a solo queue game disguised as a team shooter. You are given zero tools to actually coordinate with your teammates, and instead have to deal with whiny retards on voice chat.

a dedicated escape button has no place in a first person shooter. Same with hard disables.

Nah the game just isnt fun.

If I want a cartoony shooter, I'll play TF2.
If I want a game where I have to play as a team, I'll play Rainbow 6 Siege.

I don't hate Overwatch but I recognize that there objectively better games like TF2, Paladins and Dirty Bomb
It's a decent game but nothing more

nuJunkrat needs a nerf. A defense hero should not have that level of dps burst that can kill several enemies at once w/o an Ult. He was fine the way he was. I mained him before the buff but now I find him unfair to play; it's akin to using Brawl Ike or BR:PF Phoenix.

it is slow as shit
ults are "press q to win"
countering is fucking retarded
the class system makes no sense
i am grouped with BRs 90% of the time

I don't like the lane design of the maps. Everything is a clusterfuck in a chokepoint, and it's designed to do this all the time. Lacks freedom in gameplay, funneled to spam and peek and poke through it until an ult helps the push or stops it.

I don't talk to people irl bt I find very easy to talk on the internet

it's both of these things, Sup Forums shitposters always sperg out when a game values teamwork over showboating and hates anything popular

yes

>You shouldn't ever bother even playing half of the cast because at any given time they're completely worthless.
Normally I’d agree with you but recently all the heroes have been in a pretty good state. Blizzard finally bothered to retweak the useless heroes in the game and now everyone in the game finally feels viable in a fight. Nothing feels like a meme pick anymore.

>make the final mistake in a game of culminating blunders construed by bad team play
>the entire team magnifies it and blames you for losing the entire match

>doesn’t care about a game’s mechanics
>complains about only being grouped with bronze players in QP
you’re exactly where you belong, buddy

And that's why you're an idiot.

>random criticals
>random damage spread
>server stutters constantly
>unbalanced weapons get nerfed to oblivion to punish you for using them
>valve turned off hat drops for 3 years in order to hide new contents behind crates

I don't like it anymore because they stopped using sex appeal

>unbalanced weapons
name one

Don't reply to bait, user.

That's Bullshits. I'm a main medic in tf2 so I NEED my teammates in order to win.

Overwatch is just bad, stop shoving your shit down everyone throat reddit.

funny, that's what I thought before getting it only to realize that most of the time I was the one not being an autist

Axtinguisher is useless, Demoknight is useless, heavy can’t even use the meat and bear claws together even though they’re from the same kit, and spy is slowly getting nerfed by the day. The only reason TF2 used to be balanced was because pretty much everything in the game was OP.

>tfw all you do is play tank/heals because you're the only one willing to fill the needed roles
