Blizzard Overwatch

Why is my PS4 downloading a patch for the beta called version 1.11?

Edit: it was about 96MB

For me it was tuesday is mainly junkrats humming the tire at folk.

But I don’t trip, just ignore the fact that I BODIED A WHOLE TEAM BY MYSELF WITH With Mei. Thanks game.

Edit: cinematic event sold out at my location. but it’s out around elkridge anyway, that area is lame as fuck.

This game is gonna be huge.

They don’t? Hard to say, considering many other heroes are straight up better than Bastion. Committing a support (or two, if you’re considering Mercy and Reinhardt helping Bastion) is, like I said earlier, somewhat of a risky strat because you are committing heavily to making Bastion good. Support (90% of the time would be Mercy, as Lucio and Zen have better things to do) would ideally be helping the whole team too.

Plays of the game do vary though. During closed beta, Blizzard retuned the POTG algorithm to not just factor in kills and damage done during X time window. I’d say a majority of POTGs are multi-kills, usually through ults (usually unimpressive), but it’s much more varied now that sharpshooting, shut down plays (like shutting down an ult mid cast or during one), and saves like Mercy ult or Zen ult. Don’t think the system needs to be changed too much more.

Tends to happen more in lower level play. Lots of ā€œQ of the gameā€ plays. Used to be way worse when Junkrat Riptire had 150 HP instead of 100.

This thread is great, by the way. I love Mei salt threads.

Favorite parts: ā€œMei is unfun to play againstā€ and ā€œMei is good vs Tracer and snipers, but goes even with Bastion by sniping him from afarā€.

Heard it was an average of 8 hours per person who played the beta too

Well, the beta was pretty addictive tbh. I only thought I would played it for a few hours, but I ended up playing it over the weekend.

Yea I couldn’t put the game down and when I wasn’t playing I was thinking about it.

Smh blizzard with the crack again.

Amazing Funbags you need to change your avatar to some big ass Mei tiddies dude.

This explains so much. I was thinking every Hanzo just were gods of shooting since with a slow travel arrow they were hitting shit abnormally well. The arrow has a hitbox the size of a truck.

Yes.

He’s not shooting arrows, he’s shooting tree trunks. Even with those giant hitboxes he is pretty weak.

>big ass tiddies
>D.Va

Pick one.

I mean, I do like D.Va more, but I think Mei is more fitting in this case.

Just sayin’

I trust in the Internet to give me both.

So, when are the Megatron mods for Bastion coming?

On the topic of Bastion, he’s never been a problem for me as D.Va. If he’s just sitting somewhere, you flank and then destroy him from behind. If he’s got a team, well, you’ll need your team too, but basically you just boost straight into them with Defense Matrix up and focus fire him down. If he’s got a Reinhardt blocking and turns to attack me then my teammates will kill him or Bastion because Bastion HAS to fire focus his fire on me OR return to recon mode to survive. Super works sometimes.

Reaper does the same thing but can’t boost through, he just has to flank, but that’s what he’s built for

Widowmaker and Hanzo are obvious, you just snipe him from long range. If their’s a Reinhardt, then yeah, you need your team or if you have Super as Hanzo, try to flank and use that.

There’s plenty of 1v1 counters, and if the problem is a team set up around him, then your problem is whether or not your team is acting together, NOT bastion himself. In a team vs team situation you have answers to Bastion turtling no matter what setup they have.

Even if you can’t directly coordinate with voice, you just have to look at when your team is attacking, and pick those moments to attack from a different direction. But yeah you’ll need a character that has the ability to get to those positions.

He doesn’t need a nerf or a buff, or anything. I do think a complete rework for the sake of making him more interesting would be cool. I like the helicopter idea , but as he is he’s not a standout game balance problem. He’s a powerful tool that can be countered but until then, demolishes inexperienced players

Also, just to be clear, though I hate that the game is designed around changing heroes, it’s not badly balanced when you take that idea into account. I just don’t prefer it.

When I come up against Reaper as D.Va I just fucking run unless he is already damaged. If he surprises me, we meet at the same time, or heck even if I surprise him, I need to get the fuck out because he very quickly out damages me, and yeah that sucks, but in the context of being able to switch heroes, Reaper has his problem matches too. McCree is the anti-attacker because of flashbang and he can totally wreck Reaper, Tracer, Genji, etc. because of it

Not saying strong, but there were a few times I died to him and in the killcam it looked like it completely missed me as tracer but I still got OHKO so was really confused. I just assumed lag, but this makes more sense. Other guy said ā€˜fixed’ not me. Hanzo didn’t seem imba at all.

Honestly, I think Hanzo’s Ult is going to be really good when people get more familiar with maps because it goes through walls. When I was playing it seemed really good in the the king of the hill style mode. Forcing people out of cover into easy kills. I don’t know enough about him to rate him, but the Ult has some unexplored potential imo. Might not be better than some other Ult’s though, but has some fringe uses I could see people using it for in some games.

I think one strange thing relative to Widowmaker is that his bow at max charge does 125, while her sniper at 100% does 150. Widowmaker gets 100% charge extremely fast, and is a hitscan weapon, so to me she is the superior ranged combatant, while also having a machinegun that actually works for up close encounters. I think it would be fair if his charged bow can do 150 raw, since that is the cutoff for killing the lowest hp heroes and landing 300 hp headshots. He’ll still be unique compared to Widowmaker, since even with a damage increase, she will still outrange and outdps him, but he would have the advantage of more area denial with his ult and spread shot.

Honzo’s ult has a different use than Widow’s for sure, but yeah when it comes to comparing damage between the two, Honzo is just absolutely awful. His lack of mobility hurts too. There really isn’t a reason to pick Honzo over Widow.
