Overwatch threads should be banned. Sage

>ow is such a bad game, it bans people for dumb reasons, yet continues to be played
Even OverWatch is trying to kill OverWatch and fucking it up too

>people shouldn't pick classes that they're good at
>meta dick sucking is the only way to win
>user defends this

Lmao people still play this fucking thing

Imagine getting tricked into liking Overwatch
Imagine taking a look at Jeff and expecting him to lead the way
Imagine expecting anything of Blizzard this decade

everyone knows that overwatch is garbage
play the superior free version

Problem is, people play who they want and get completely shut down.
And instead of switching to a counter theyll just die over and over.
The amount of times people let winston run all over them is staggering. Gotta play that tracer/genj

wrong image oops

You dont get to tell people who they can and cant play, if you dont like my main deal with it or leave

>Having characters who cancel out others ala rock paper scissors
>In a fucking first person shooter
>With distinct characters that people will want to main
Stop defending this. Not everyone plays games to min max their shit. Believe it or not some people play games to have fun, not to have it feel like a second job

>DUDE IT'S 12 O'CLOCK LMAO!

ESPORTS WERE A MISTAKE

Changes to the Defense Class so that they actually defend/do a better job at defending along with some fixes.

Bastion
-Ironclad increased to 25%
-new second ability that sends out a sonar pulse, revealing enemies to him in a 20m radius for a few seconds

Hanzo
-Scatter Arrow doesn't do damage until 0.5 seconds after the fragments disperse, each fragment now does 90 damage
-RMB is now Tether Arrow, an enemy struck by it is bound to a 3m radius around the spot they were hit for a few seconds

Junkrat
-second Mine removed, detonator now on Mine button
-can now lay two Traps together, laying a third replaces the first laid, same cooldown style as Mine is now, entire team can see Triggered Traps
-RMB is now Scrap Grenade, leaving a 5m-diameter area of caltrops that damages and slows enemies moving through it (15 damage per step, -50% speed, jumping doesn't avoid it)
-10 recoil damage from Grenades

Mei
Can't think of anything at the moment.

Torbjorn
-Headbox reduced by 33% and moved into his head only
-4 swings to upgrade Turret
-Turret health is now half Armor
-projectile speed increased to 70mps

Widowmaker
-Venom Mine leaves a cloud for a few seconds after detonating that poisons anyone passing through it and also reduces the damage affected enemies deal for the duration of being poisoned

>All I want is to jerk my micro penis to Genji's ass.

Well, y’know, except Mercy, Solder, and Tracer. Those character are always useful

fuck u trashmouse

Those caltrops sound like they’d be stupidly strong. They lock down an area to well

>Video game threads should be banned on the video game board

>Overwatch
>video game

You can main generalist heroes and be ok.

Its only an issue if you play niche as fuck worthless heroes.

>Every ability with very few exceptions takes little to no skill or aim to use optimally
>Maps are all chokepoints with very few flank routes, incentivizing spam
>No ammo
>Ults decide way too much about the game, to the point that an otherwise good character with a bad ult is bad, and a bad character with a good ult is good
>Dive meta in a game where movement is heavily restricted and inflexible

These are all irrefutable criticisms mainly stemming from Blizzard making the game playable on consoles. It's just a console shooter for PC.

Then what the fuck is it, you brain dead moron?

>Has visual component
>Has rules and player input, ie game

dark souls topics should be banned

I would think OW would get boring very fast if you only played about 3 characters.

its trash like you

Got 'em

Short duration, long cooldown, and anyone with a defensive ability that negates effects plus Rein's Charge can get around the speed reduction.

fuck off i'll main widowmaker with my shitty parkinsons pulse all day on comp and there's nothing you can do about it.

>playing chinese knockoffs

Oof, ow user. You're hurting me with all this edgy banter. Tell me more of how you don't like things, and about your elite, superior tastes.

Maining is for teams, not matchmade random teams but real teammates you regularly play together with, or ideally a competitive team. There is nothing wrong with the way people tell others to switch off characters that don't fit the team, don't solo-queue a team game and expect everyone to just put up with whatever shit you're pulling.

Is this real?

I see Gabe has raided Sup Forums again

Oh god just looked it is

That's cool. Just stay out of Comp and stick to Quick Play.

>Every character should be as strong in every situation and against everybody

Why play comp if you're playing for fun.

this user knows whats up.
t. widowmain

>Play nu-competitive.
>Playing games with compressed skill ceiling.
>Playing composition-based games.
>Playing team-based games.
>Playing MMR-based games.
>Complain about not maining.
Stop playing trash and play fightan or Broodwar.

hi underage

I'll say it again:
LoL, DOTA, Overwatch, Hatfort, etc, are all just skill-compressed team-based composition-based MMR and skin ginders. I've been playing Vampire Savior since the 90s mate.

>LoL, DOTA, Overwatch, Hatfort, etc, are all just skill-compressed team-based composition-based MMR and skin ginders.
How hard do you have to try to sound smart

You should have spoken up when Acti-Blizz had their viral marketers forcing it down everyone's throats back in 2016 then, retard.

>Main a support
>Nobody says anything
>Main a tank
>Nobody says anything
>Main a DPS the most fun characters in the game
>HOW FUCKING DARE YOU

blizzard literally memed it into popularity by using the same kind of force-feed tactics that modern day memers use. just keep spamming it, relentlessly, without end, until people like it because they literally have no other choice.

pcgamer.com/hi-rez-president-explains-why-battlegrounds-name-was-chosen-for-paladins-new-mode/
>they literally just call the new ripped-off battle royale mode battlegrounds
No fucking shame.

>place in diamond season 3
>just slightly above average
>everyone plays the game like there's money on the line or some shit
and thats the story of how I never played overwatch ever again

Not hard. Also, there's nothing particularly smart about that plain observation even if it's profound to you.

As much as I hate the word "toxic" I honestly believe that it's the perfect definition for the overwatch community.
Not everybody is a winner in competitive games and people can't grasp that.

Why does he have two guns? He only has one gun in game

>people on Sup Forums now defend casual teambased games that pretend to be competitive but literally take zero skill

Neo Sup Forums is real

Because he's that much of a Badass motherfucker.

>Join game
>get on mic
>dude and his girl friend mock me for having deep voice or some shit
>talk shit back
>get banned a day later

Game is literally full of 5'5"-5'10" soyboys.

>waaaaah waaaaaah stop talking about video games I hate waaaaaah

I don't know what you might have done wrong but from reading your post I know you deserved it.

This is how you know someone is in high school and is only familiar with games circa 2010

Just a warning friend, the faggot mods now ban you for announcing sages as well as the reporting.

go away randy

It's kinda embarrassing for Overwatch and all us who play it but McCree has a BAMF belt buckle.

And this ladies and gentlemen is exactly the type of passive agressive sarcastic high horse retarded behavior that makes the Overwatch community the #1 worst one in all of video games. Reply back with an even more passive agressive response to make yourself feel better though.

t.FGC autist

>Play old competitive games.
>"Hi underage!"
niggaroni, you are the underaged. stick with your garbage cuck genres and stop complaining.

I am wholly indifferent to Overwatch. I don't hate it nor do I play it.

What does bother me is really transparent and shallow viral marketing that still works because of idiots like you who can't be bothered to point it out or notice it.

>lol these threads with identical op images that were flooding the front page with a different Hero every week are just people discussing the game, totally not a focused effort to give the immediate image of popularity from Activision-Blizzard's notoriously aggressive marketing teams!

I really wish you could main the cowboy
There are no more good cowboy characters being made anymore
Why are they taking my cowboys away from me? I just wanna go YEEHAWWW and wear sickass hats while informing my foes that I may or may not have fired 6 shots, but there’s a good chance that I fired five, also.

>Play fightan instead
>hi underage

I'd like to see you do a quarter circle kid.

>everything I hate is a conspiracy by the evil people pushing things I hate

Do you think this every time a popular game has multiple threads?

I knew there was no hope for this place when I heard the faggot mods on Sup Forums were banning all fun (no yotsuba chapters "because pedos", no Sakurafish because "it's stupid and i don't get it", etc)

Cowboys forever

>Banning pedo lolishit.
>Bad.
A marked improvement.

No because other games aren't funded by wellknown viral marketing teams and didn't ever have the same level of spamming (identical OP images, multiple threads of the same topic filling the entire front page, rotation of the hero being spammed each week, etc, all things Overwatch had in mid-late 2016 on Sup Forums which made everyone treat it like its popularity was inevitable and they may as well play it)

People don't just get banned for no reason. See, you couldn't even describe the supposed chain of events without using dumb catchphrases and memes that reveal all about your character (or lack thereof). So while I might not know exactly what you got banned for, I am sure you gave Blizzard plenty to pick from.

>banning threads for yotsuba, the most wholesome shit imaginable, the literal mascot of this fucking website, on Sup Forums
Kill yourself abib

>video game company invests money into marketing on one of the biggest outlets for videogame discussion

Yeah sounds totally nuts my man, get him a tinfoil hat right? xD

Nah.

>Be Blizzard
>See TF2
>"Huh, we can make a game like that!"
>Fill it with 40 characters
>Act surprised your game turns out an unbalanced piece of shit with absolutely no redeeming competitive qualities
>Continue to force E-Sports agenda anyway
>Make people who play this game think they're REALLY REALLY SMART at video games
>Make core design choices which are incredibly flawed and do not work when you create characters which are amazing and be surprised they're must picks in competitive

This game would have been better if there was only like 10 characters, Tracer, Winston, Mercy, McCree, Widowmaker, Pharah, Zenyatta, Symmetra, Torbjorn, D.va

All those characters should have been the base of the game and that's it.

>Yotsuba threads on Sup Forums are banned

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS

>overwatchfags don't even realize that practice makes perfect so a person who plays mcree 100% of the time is going to be better even if mcree isn't the 100% ''meta'' char for that fight

>tf2 is the best game ever
>every game should be tf2
>why is this game trying to be more than just tf2-2?
>me? no i dont play tf2 anymore and i wouldn't play overwatch even if it made it like i think i want it
>but you assholes who think you like overwatch are wrong and should play this game i came up with instead

I thought Blizzard's balance team was retarded enough already, but thank god they don't listen to people like you

You bring shame to this earth with every breath you inhale. You are a waste of oxygen, you're a waste of the water you use flushing your shit down the toilet. You are a waste of the 1s and 0s your posts take up on Sup Forums servers. You are a waste of the energy you expend while contributing to universal entropy.

You are a waste.

not him but he's right the game is full of soy boys, trash talking is apart of every game and the fact that you can get banned for not participating in some safe space garbage is backwards thinking.

>Four male characters out of seven females

At least the porn would be simple to make.

I see what you're saying, but fighting games are also mmr based.

Battlegrounds is the game mode name, like the term deathmatch or search n destroy. It gives players instant idea what the rules, mechanics and objective are

One specific mod as far as I'm aware, they are only scared of Hiroshimoot. (When chinkmoot went into the IRC to find out why people were trying to get his attention over the neogaf thing, they among other faggot janitors retreated in fear into a super-sekrit room he didn't know about)

they banned fun memes and regular, common content on Sup Forums and refused to listen to anyone who came knocking about it, dismissing any complaints as pedophiles or spammers (even when the content they were deleting had context or was totally innocuous like Yotsuba&! chapter dumps)

Of course the game appears full of ""soyboys"" to people who are constantly looking for excuses to use the hottest new Sup Forums meme.

Arguing with Overwatch fans is like arguing with a retarded child, you know there's something wrong with them but if you just call them retarded they'll clap their hands and think they won.

Nope. You are.
Anyone that watches anime is literally a worthless person.
Anyone that has a waifu is a worthless person.
Anyone that can't bench their own weight is a worthless person.
Anyone that is bad, fat, too skinny, or under 6ft is a worthless person.
Those are the rules.

Yeah, but they're not designed to keep you at 50/50 winrates.

Sup Forums is an anime themed imageboard made by an anime fan, for anime fans. You are a visitor here. Not a resident.

t.soyboy

You can bitch if you want but at least just admit you don't want to play the game correctly. Hero picks is the main mechanic of the game, it isn't "meta." That's like calling using types in pokemon that your enemy is weak to part of the "meta"

Where the fuck do you think you are faggot?

>YOU NEED TO PLAY TANK
but i want to play dps
>WE ALREADY HAVE 2
why do you get to play dps and i dont
>YOU HAVE TO SWAP TO FIT COMP THATS THE GAME
im locking in dps
>IM NOT SWAPPING FUCK YOU WE ARE GOING TO LOSE

overwatch is dumb but at least its teaching kids why forced diversity is dumb in the process

Fuck off habeeb, you flabby cunt.

b-but user, wouldn't that make you worthless?

People misinterpret the forced 50/50. its not designed to bring good players down. its designed to make bad players feel better about themselves. Good players escape the forced 50.

You don't get to determine anything. Never forget; you control nothing and never will.
