I got a couple of t shirts from them. Fabric was so thin it was almost see through. Sizes seemed a size smaller than marked as well, so not impressed at all with the quality

Overwatch finally has a LFG system. Be really interesting when it goes live. Would be something I'd use a lot, particularly if it takes away the random element of comp and who you get placed with.



I Like the endorsement system too (you can even chose to have a minimum endorsement level when setting up a group.)


New Sym teleporter looks nuts, could really change the game and how it's played now.



Also Doomfist has a decent buff on ptr.

Mickeroo

Did the Ana buff make it out of ptr where her darts pass through full health allies?

Happy with all the changes bit missed this, whats the DF buff?

I started using an alt account for playing with friends who don't really play much Overwatch to keep them separate from ruining my tryhard account. Finished placements and the fun account is 300SR higher than the tryhard account :-/ 2000 vs 2300

IvoryTower

Happened me as well, ended up using the smurf as my try hard account. you get a boost when you first place, every one of my friends dropped rank massively after their first placements. You could continue with your smurf and just use characters that you need a lot of practice with, overall your rank will drop and you'll get the benefit of practice with new characters.

His ultimate moves faster and he gets a tiny shield increase from using abilities.

Moves as in from launch to landing or moving the curser to the spot cos he needs to launch land fast, very easy to avoid if you ain't mcrees ha

****ing games are getting worse by the day.
Mulltiple games pick tank and end up with no healer, I switch healer and the other tank goes dps.

I don't understand how people look at the team comps and think this is fine.

It's why i stopped playing, if playing competitive, you need to be queuing with a full team, otherwise its just gonna be a frustrating disappointment, mostly. So if you really love the game and want to continue, look for a team/group that you can join that want to take the game as seriously as you.

I usually don't care as I've seen some really random team comps work a lot better than they should....

But the other day I was playing with a friend, I picked Moira, he picked Brigette....then two people on our team who are paired up, pick Lucio and Ana after we had already picked.

I said **** them I'm not switching, played the game, and I'm not sure what they were at because I got gold, and my friend got silver healing as Brigette....

Stands out as one of the more illogical comps.

If you play x amount of games, you're guaranteed to get a few trolls. when those games happen just pick someone you'd like to practice with and accept it is what it is, will never rid online gaming of trolls unfortunately

a system where you can send video evidence of throwers that would give them a lengthy ban would be cool

Sight808

TBH, that lfg function should take alot of that random element away. Particularly when the endorsement system kicks in

fixXxer

Developing a taste for death matches. Jump pads and Roadhog were made for each other.

Xenji

Anyone else keep getting LC-202 disconnects in the last hour, it was working fine for the rest of the afternoon, on a PS4.

IvoryTower

role select actually looks amazing, watched that annoying buggers video but it really does look good. literally never have to worry about 4 dps again if i dont want to

Another season drawing to a close. How did people get on or find it?

Didn't play half as much as I did in previous seasons but enjoyed playing a mix of heroes. Toxicity and general poor team play is still a major problem. Even in the last number of games I played today there were two leavers (just d/c'd).. had one lad throw a game because he was the only tank (we were doing well though) and then just the general toxicity. I'm hoping the lfg function can sort a lot of these issues as random solo q'ing is just no fun. It seems a lot of people are opting for other games atm, streamers, casual gamers and even this forum has slowed down a lot in terms of activity. OW has been out for over 2 years now and unless Blizzard start sorting out ranked gameplay I can see it slowly dying.

IvoryTower

Played a lot myself, flexed but just played whoever I felt like that would fill the role. I think it would be a good time to main rein if you want to rank up as the lack of main tanks seems to be the biggest issue with getting a decent comp together these days. had a lot of fun but looking forward to role select.

Brig is a good character but not really for me
