There's times where we'll drop the 1st round, but if the enemy doesn't change up characters then that's when you have to strike with counter picks. 3v3 is a challenging beast, love it maggal

road doggy dogg 12-14-2016 09:31 AM

Mei snowball mode is kinda... ehhh...

Heisenberg 12-14-2016 09:41 AM

yeah, once I got the initial Loot Box I jetted on out. Need like 3 snowballs, one is piss

road doggy dogg 12-14-2016 10:24 AM

Yeah it's a bit of a crapshoot. Fun once or twice but doesn't have lasting power. Got my loot box though thankfully. Think there are still a few achievements linked to the mode though but w/e

Heisenberg 12-14-2016 01:19 PM

Next Halloween we should have a 4v1 to the tune of "See No Evil" where 4 Heroes wake up in an insane asylum and The Demon Roadhog wonders the halls, hooking his enemies and disposing of the remains.

Blizzard revealed their plans for the game for next year in regards to new maps, characters, and features.

Quote:

The director also confirmed that the new DLC map, Oasis, is on track for launch in early 2017, which is the timing that Blizzard announced at BlizzCon. It's currently on the PTR.

Overwatch fans should also expect more in-game events in the New Year, some of which are expected, themed around holidays, and others will surely catch you off guard, Kaplan said.

Additionally, the communication wheel is being updated with more customization options. This will include the ability to add up to four voice lines and emotes, Kaplan said.

He added that Blizzard is working on more Overwatch DLC characters, though he cautioned that some are only prototypes and they may never come out. One of the new characters is looking "promising," and is moving through the development process in the area of art, Kaplan said.

Additionally, Blizzard is making new Overwatch maps beyond Oasis. But again, some are more experimental in nature, Kaplan said, adding that at least one of them is shaping up well. The studio is also working on new modes, though Kaplan didn't say anything about them.

Finally, Kaplan said an area of focus for Overwatch in 2017 will be a server browser for Custom Games, so people can find them more easily. This has been a top-requested feature, Kaplan said, adding that he's excited to launch an initial version of it in in early 2017.

sweet

more maps and characters, less pandering

#BROKEN Hasney 12-21-2016 06:53 PM

Terry Crews was at Blizzard after saying on Reddit how much he loved the game and would voice a tank. I so hope that happens.

Kalyx triaD 12-21-2016 10:57 PM

Oh he's almost certainly Doom Fist.

Fignuts 12-23-2016 03:14 AM

5 on 6? Doesn't matter. Team GLORIOUS is still VICTORIOUS

Also, mystery heroes is super frustrating when your team is getting a bad draw, but oh my god is it hilarious when you're on the other side.

Heisenberg 12-23-2016 09:02 AM

The 5 on 6 was GLORIOUS, but saddened to hear about one of the 5 no longer being able to que with us due to his rating. RIP Facetore, I will lower my ratings to go help him

road doggy dogg 12-23-2016 09:04 AM

Mystery Brawl is one of my fav modes but yeah it is a significant struggle (especially on offence) if you have a tough comp. One of the worst cases had us with 4 Anas. Brutal.

road doggy dogg 12-23-2016 09:05 AM

It does lead to me trying out heroes in scenarios I would never consider though. Widowmaker on Anubis offence is surprisingly effective IMO

Heisenberg 12-23-2016 10:01 AM

You discover some crazy combos in there, plus you find yourself

Heisenberg 12-23-2016 11:49 AM

Also, we played with "Lerki from Asgerd" last night. Another name to add with the Legends

Wishbone 12-28-2016 05:39 PM

Any of y'all play on PS4? Doing randoms for ranked is a pain in the ass... >_<

Ruien 01-02-2017 07:57 PM

Hit level 20 in this. Feel I will get rocked in competitive matches though. I am only good with 4 heroes and okay with a few others.

If you don't feel too good with a certain toon just watch some video or live stream of someone playing that character and you can get a feel of what you need to do to get the job done

Ruien 01-02-2017 09:29 PM

Ya. Want to get really good with 2 of each type. Trying to get the flying rocket lady down now. Defend heroes are by far my favorite. Bow man and sniper lady are amazing. Bastion is fun when defending as my first hero and then switch once the offense starts to push. Shield guy is my favorite tank. Angle healer and soldier are my other two. Soldier is by far my best.

Competitive does not equal better players. Berg and I have seen plenty of 2-4 star players that were utterly useless.

Especially Sombras. So many bad Sombras. I don't get why either. It's not brain surgery. Put down your teleporter on a health pack . Go invisible, and flank from behind. Kill as many as you can before your teleporter expires or before you die and port out of there.

Like, of all the characters, sombra should be dying the least, because she has an instant escape tool. But I see randos dying constantly with her.

Fignuts 01-02-2017 10:11 PM

Also, they have names, Ruien!

GOD

Blizzard announced they are handing out a wave of punishments for those who took advantage of a glitch involving Mei's Ice Wall move.

Quote:

For weeks now, enterprising and unscrupulous Overwatch players have been using an exploit to give themselves an almost unbeatable edge in the game's new three-on-three Last Team Standing mode. There's a bug where players can use Mei's ice wall to get outside the map while still being able to shoot at people who are inside the map ...

That's nice to know, but Blizzard also says that the cheaters will get their just comeuppance. In a post on the game's forums, Overwatch director Jeff Kaplan states "This bug is clearly an exploit and we consider this cheating... We will be taking action against those who abused this exploit...We take aggressive action against people who abuse game mechanics, hack or cheat. This case is no different. Apologies that this bug lingered for as long as it did. Hopefully this should go away soon (along with those who abused it)."

I'm glad Blizzard has been very active in handing out bans in OW

Ruien 01-07-2017 10:06 PM

Feels like if I play a rated game and don't destroy the other team personally it is a slaughter. Might be me though not playing as a team correctly too.

Ruien 01-08-2017 10:38 AM

I ended up in the gold league. Guessing that is about average.

Ruien 01-08-2017 10:53 AM

I do enjoy the face when I solo queue I only get put into premade group matches if there is one on my team too. Makes it way more fair.

You would be you big baby

I placed just below gold in season 3, and then have won every match since then. Although I am in no way responsible for the team's victory, at least I'm playing a little more attentively and do my bit. Also I'm very lucky.

Ruien 01-08-2017 04:37 PM

Are there always so many leavers? Shit is annoying. They don't even fill in the spot with a bot.

You must be talking about Competitive, leavers will quit one minute or less into it and cause the match to end.

Yeah, in comp there are leavers fairly often, especially in placement matches. I've had more than a handful of matches that ended up being like 2v6 by the time it was all said and done. Just take it in stride and move onto the next game

#BROKEN Hasney 01-18-2017 12:15 PM

Since the crate incentive in arcade mode, I've barely played competitive. Mystery heroes is frustrating but fun.

road doggy dogg 01-18-2017 12:32 PM

Mystery Heroes is the best mode to learn heroes you're not comfortable with. It's a blast. And if you're shit at Genji, well, you didn't pick him!

#BROKEN Hasney 01-18-2017 01:02 PM

Yeah, feel like I'm landing mid range shots as McRee much more regular now with the mystery hero and can occasionally fuck up the other team when I get Widow.

Ruien 01-18-2017 01:15 PM

I play a ton of 3 on 3. Sombra and Soldier dominate for me know there.

Heisenberg 01-18-2017 01:32 PM

I'm over 1,000 rating in Comp to play with one of my friends who has a 1100 score. They should have an option for you to sacrifice your rating so I could help my friend in Comp

road doggy dogg 01-18-2017 01:58 PM

3v3 is fun but so incredibly infuriating at times. I think of all the Arcade modes, Mystery is my favourite. I just wish Lucio Ball was a fulltime Arcade mode

#BROKEN Hasney 01-18-2017 02:00 PM

It is. It's called Rocket League.
