Overwatch - Blizzard's latest game

Actually maybe a hero that could slow poison hero's. Could also have an ability that slowed targets down and maybe like a poison puddle you could drop on the ground behind you if your been chased.

That's quite dark.

Just the tip of the iceberg in my No Mercy Manifesto!

A reverse Lucio, kind of like splatoon, fires out a puddle/bubble anyone in it is slowed down

That's what I was thinking.

That's a great idea Emmet! Take the wind out on Lucio's, Tracer's, and Genji's sails.

Poor old Hog would be screwed if you managed to blob him, he's slow enough as is :pac:

I think we need a working defensive hero; for example let the hero be a aura hero that slows people down or alternatively deal AoE damage. Second ability is not amp it up but rather increasing field size by 100% for 2s on same cycle as Amp it Up. Have as heroic ability phase out; used on friendly or enemy hero and said hero will not be able to move or do anything for 2s and after it wears off they take no damage for 2s.

fixXxer

Yup, just tried it in training. No more super fast rez, shorter Valkyrie.

No to lazy to go upstairs :pac:

WarpAsylum

Ha! Had a look. Seems a bit smoother round the edges, but I could just be imagining it. Nothing striking.

Played one game. Lost.

Back to Bloodborne...

Overwatch doesn't strike me as the type of the game that would really benefit from big graphical upgrades.

Canis Lupus

Mercy nerf is nice. She's still a good healer but the lack of rez mobility will do a lot to stop her being so annoying.

Well.....it's a prettier game than it gets credit for, and it looks great at 4K/60 in fairness.

Played a few games with mercy, think i won 2 Lost 2, there were a few moments where the lack of instant rez made a huge difference, like at the end of route 66 the defending team would have won had I been able to get off 2 instant rez but because I couldnt I was just flying about healing the remaining team mates before their inevitable death.

Still haven't played blizzard world

IvoryTower

Played it once,my firdt rabked game when it went live. Havent seen it since so i assume that was a mistake!

Mickeroo

I've only played it in arcade but it seems a bit too busy visually to me.

fixXxer

I really like it. It has sections that suit a wide range of hero's. My god though I find that last point hard to hold on defense.

IvoryTower

Played a couple more mercy games this morning. Very easy to die when you valk, using it to escape a situation usually means you just die and lose valk. Have to play it safe, im popping valk early and often at the moment to help swing fights as much as possible. For once the other support ults pretty much cancel it out. Pretty much have to hide while valking if theres a mccreee/soldier, they'd kill you now without their ult

Weird situation on PSN last night. Our 5 stack came up against another 5 stack that was all silver. Holy **** these guys were not silver though. The Tracer, Widow and Reinhardt especially were way above that level.

Im on Xbox, it depends how early i wake. Like I was up at 7 this morning and my son doesn't wake until about 8 so got couple of games in. I'm usually on most evenings but a bit less at the moment while i try to sleep more for my other hobby(athletics!)

TitianGerm

How many here play on Xbox. I wonder would it be worth starting a thread in the Xbox Forum to get a list of GamerTags?

IvoryTower

Myself(gunnerdrog) and Adventagious play together sometimes, I added a few more people off here I think, cant remember the gamertags though
