    I don't think he'll be a tank. Defense hero is my guess.

    Glad to see the Doomfist hype coming to fruition, unlike the Sombra ARG. Jesus that dragged on for a long time.

    man i am getting some absolute heat for playing sombra. People are really losing the plot. I mean going nuts.

    I got really annoyed...told them they were quitters just like their french grandfathers in ww2.

    also saw a video of impending zarya nerf.. if they nerf her I'm actually leaving the game, god please not my zarya!

    "big man on the mic but were where all you french big men when your country getting nailed every week by attacks, i`ll tell you where you were , hiding like the rest of your country of cheese eating surrender monkeys.

    twas harsh yet i admit he went quite for the rest of the game and the other 5 of us got on with it.

    Well that was fun.

    Playing defence on Numbani, got play of the game as Torbjorn, which is literally me just looking at the ground because my controller died when I pressed for Molten core.

    Absolutely wicked shot on a widow earlier on, the music I had on in the background synced perfectly with it too.:cool:

    Absolutely no need to touch Zaraya. Does anyone even complain about her?

    Ugh, lunch time seems awful for Competitive Play. Zero team work, stubborn picks and full of mouthy kids. :(

    Leavers seem to be an epidemic recently. Had a game just now where we went 1-0 up on Nepal (won the first 100-56) and was around 40% up in round 2 when someone left. Their entire team left by the end of the round.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    And they still prefer that system to throwing in another player.

    If a player leaves and doesnt reconnect he should get his whole teams sr loss, not the team


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    I dunno, I think they were concerned about people being bullied into leaving, then.

    You can't even bully people out of changing from Hanzo/Widow


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    Ha. I mean a guy could take the hit for his mates by quitting. I just think a merc system for having stand-bye players could be a good thing. Obviously give the person who left time to try-reconnect if it was sudden, rather than selecting leaving, which SURELY they can distinguish. I'm sure some reward system for the stand-bye could be thought out.

    Only way a join in progress system would work in ranked is if your SR isn't affected if the match has gone past a certain point.

    Or give people who are added in double SR for a win and half/one third SR loss for loosing after joining a game in progress.

    If I can get 60ish SR for a win or -8/-10 for a loss it's probably worth the risk for me.

    Obviously there should be a cut off. If you join with 60 seconds left for example.

    Giving out double SR for wins sounds like something people would try and exploit, though it would be a good incentive not to quit as soon as you realise you're joining a match in progress.
