I also had something happen last night that I probably should have saved. I was playing defense on Volskaya Industries as Zarya, on the 2nd point, team of randoms. They were advancing straight up the middle. I seen four people, so I sent out the black hole ult, but right as I did it, Reinhardt used the stun ult. So my entire team hits the floor except for a Hanzo up in the higher walk ways. We all can’t move, their entire team gets sucked into the ult, and here comes a spirit dragon passing through to wipe out the whole fucking attacking team who can’t move an inch. He got play of the game for it, and watching the cam he didn’t even know that the black hole was there. He just shot it through the wall at random chance. We both just happened to aim at the same place.
It felt good man.
This noire skin for Widowmaker is fucking cancerous though. It pretty much guarantees you will always have a Widowmaker on your team even if it’s on a map section she’s not good on. People still playing characters that look cool instead of the ones the team needs.
Also I figured out yesterday that as Hanzo that if you put a full draw scatter shot at Tracers feet it instant kills her. And here I was trying to headshot her for the entire beta.
played a game with soldier 76 netting 46 eliminations and 3 deaths lol. The other team was all tanks in a capture point game and i just sat on the side lines unloading bullets into them. Did like 18000 dmg it was so silly cus they had 2 winstons and our team had two winstons also… People were flying all over the place.
Anyone notice sometimes you seem to do less dmg than other people? No range incusion or mercy buff or zenyatta debuff… Just flat out someone using reaper 2 shots me as reaper and i barely do 15% dmg to him… Dmg seems sorta inconsistent i dont know if the game is laggig and does a great job of hiding the lag?? But sometimes something feels weird.
I can’t find the video… but basically Reaper’s bullet spread, is random as fuck, like really random. So while you’re both aiming at the exact same chest/head area, your bullets will hit him in the chest, while his bullets will hit you in the head. It’s kinda retarded in a way.
That happened to me a lot in the beta. I’d have reapers appear in front of me and kill me in 1 or 2 shots, then I would shoot at someone at near point blank range in the head/chest and it seemed like it was taking 4-5 shots to kill them. Unless your’e like pressing the fucking guns against their temple, it’s somewhat random.
I hate some of the PUGs you get in this game. Half the Chinese I play with seem to not give a damn about capturing any objectives, like this one time in Numbani where me and another guy (both of us playing tanks) worked our way to the capture point to try to start moving the payload, and these four other guys just hung back and ran around near the start while everyone else on the opposing team gangs up on us.
I am still on the fence about getting this game, mostly because i know that the friends that i play with will ignore it in favor of Destiny (it happened with the Division).
Which is kinda sad, since the game is full cute waifus.
Yea its rough. Or maps where it’s both sides attacking like Nepal.
Hanzo AND Black Widow hanging back, not fighting in the zone and then losing.
I commented on a match last night like we really needed 2 widows. One switched to Reinhardt. Already had a tank, but at least he was trying.
I got my 11 year old daughter playing as well and even she is understanding the dynamics. If no tank, she goes D.Va. If no healer, she’ll try Mercy or Lucio.
If 1 of each then she will pick another char. She knows to try to meet that criteria before going Rambo.
More than half the time she gets a gold medal for objective.
D.Va might be listed as a tank, but she hardly is one. She’s more of a harassing flanker that happens to have a lot of HP. Two tanks on a team is definitely not a bad thing though. Two Winstons of KOTH maps is pretty strong.
Speaking of Widowmaker, I really like that she has almost no aim assist when compared to snipers in other games. You actually have to work for the headshots with her. My cross hairs pass right over people with basically no magnetism.
