OP thanks for this thread, I know we already have a video game general but no one really talks about OW there and I don’t want to shit up that thread with OW related posts. Anyways, Overwatch has been my favorite game for awhile but it has a lot of flaws. I play on console and the amount of smurfs and MnK players is insane. I wish Blizzard would do something about smurfs but they probably don’t care since it’s more money for them.

you're welcome! thats exactly what i thought when i read the first post here. i want to talk about OW specifically because hardly anyone talks about it and like you said, i didnt want to shit up the thread. its so funny how some people are like oh haha OW sucks like the first anon as well. if it sucks, then thats your opinion. anyway im gonna stop sperging now, smurfs really fuck everything up sometimes and ruin my ELO. like i just want to fucking climb and then they match me against someone who is secretly like level 800 or something.

I started playing this recently, before that I played "Budget Overwatch" (Paladins.) I enjoy Overwatch much more but if I'm not playing in a group I tend to get annoyed with my teammates; not because they're bad but because if I'm the only healer they all demand healing and never protect me when I'm being shot at. Was playing earlier today and our team was shouting at me for being unable to heal because I was getting ganked by Tracer repeatedly and they were not listening to me requesting help REPEATEDLY. So I've decided I'm only going to play healer when I'm playing with my friends, or if I just feel like going healer.

To be honest I don't care if we win the match as long as I have fun I'm okay with it (I never play competitive.) But people acting like that just puts a damper on things.

I guess first post anon thinks they're better than us normie brainlets who dare to like a popular video game. But yeah, smurfs are starting to get ridiculous. They're even present in qp which sucks when you're just trying to have fun and try different characters.

>>348664
Yes! It should be interesting with all the new teams they've added. Also question for you guys who watched S1 of OWL, did anyone else think it was weird how teams would get new players during the season? It annoyed me when the team I like would get new players and neglect the original lineup.

I like the characters and the lore, although the lore is unfinished and has some plot holes. Part of me wants Blizzard to release more canon lore, while the other part wants them to hold off so I can come up with my own theories lol.

What characters do you just not play at all? Not only play rarely or w/e, your "ten minutes of playtime total" characters.

Mine: Zen, Hanzo, Roadhog, Doomfist, Genji. I just get nothing out of them for whatever reason. Everyone else I play at least a little.

No. 349354

Honestly not surprised. I ALMOST had sympathy for her because I can believe shes gotten death threats from beta insecure virgin incels, 100%. But its not surprising to me that she isnt legitimate after i saw she doesnt scrim and doesnt even communicate during games. Males have literally been ousted from professional teams for not participating in scrims and team shit. If Blizzard did this intentionally, as a "social experiment" or whatever the reason, they've basically given up on all integrity of the game that was left and there wasnt much anyway.

No. 349361

>>349235
I heard about the drama but didn’t look into it much. Even if this was all a social experiment, I don’t see how this proved anything. Of course people are going to question the legitimacy of the player if they never reveal themself.

For me it’s winston and bastion. I would add hammond and ashe to the list but since they’re both fairly new I haven’t decided if I like their gameplay yet.

I don't buy the "social experiment" excuse. The guy who pulled this off is probably just trying to save face. He's not a pro player or anything, just a random player who's very good at the game.

Yeah it does seem like they're pulling a JKR by not just having it included in their bios in the first place, though on the other I guess their romantic lives aren't really so relevant that they required being included initially.

Blizzard was facing a backlash because of the Ellie drama so they dropped an emergency gay backstory. So progressive.
On the upside they nerfed GOATS so the meta will change soon.

Thoughts on the new Reaper buff? Personally, I think this might be the final nail in the coffin for Overwatch. The playerbase is dwindling, people have been begging for more tank/support characters because the game is getting extremely stale if you don’t play dps. Now they’re buffing Reaper to the point where he’s borderline invincible, effectively giving the middle finger to tank mains in a sloppy attempt to nerf GOATS.

B.O.B is the most op ultimate in the game. He’s like if bastion had aimbot and a shit load of health. It also doesn’t help that Ashe is able to built ult charge very fast either. Why blizzard decided to buff Reaper, who already kills tanks in two hits, and not nerf B.O.B is retarded.

It's obvious that they buffed him too way too much. I also don't care about OWL so this patch has me salty because it's obvious they did it for the sole purpose of pro players. I have barely seen anyone play GOATS outside of OWL.

I love Overwatch but the game is getting really boring and stale. I know they just released Ashe but it's seriously lacking diversity with hero picks. I also want them to stop making main tanks whose sole purpose is a shield it's boring.

I still play, but really only play QP, capture the flag (when it's on the arcade), and go on custom servers to mess around.

I used to go on mic, but over time it gets tiring and stressful trying to talk to guys on mic. Boys are eh or miss, but make me uncomfortable as I want talk to someone my age. The only guy I can talk to is my friend's cousin.
I wish I can just find other girls to play with and talk to on mic instead of being obnoxious just to be obnoxious. It doesn't help that I'm painfully awkward too…

You're bad, so get good.
I've never seen a non-awful person with that rank. Ditto for silver.
Gold is pretty much your average player and anything below it is full retard. Plat is merely "decent player". Just think about how bad your stats and MMR are that you got placed so low. I do bring in stats bc they get weighted into your placements and skill rating, it's not even just about win and loss ratios.

And if you're playing a terribly passive character like Mercy you need to develop the game sense and mechanical skill to play something else.
