Mercy is a healer, no? Almost identical to the doctor from TF2.

I just want more options than "quick match" going forward. I don't think that's too much to ask.

I have the usual gripes with the skins. Although rare, sometimes I can't instantly tell what a particular class is. I have gotten Reaper and McCree mixed up a few times. A mild annoyance that I could do without.

Mcree is a cowboy with a cowboy hat Reaper isn't :P

I also agree game needs a few more healer options.
The most annoying thing for me is play of the game POTG 99% of the time goes to those hanging round ignoring objectives and teamplay only to seek out an ultimate option then getting it as POTG.
Nothing at all about support and tanks,if they don't have ameans to track good play from support and tanks then they should scrap it because all you are left with is the cod generation seeking kills playing only dps.

Until you put his Mariachi sombrero outfit on when he takes on a look not entirely dissimilar from McRee

[edit]

Now with added pics

I went searching for a particular skin because it was actually neither of those. I was way off. This is the skin I thought was Reaper/McCree :pac:

Gave this a go

Picked McCree right off because gunslinger, of course I'm all over that Got a massive 5-kill streak in my last game

Shiminay

I think I hit a 29 player kill streak with a Bastion...

Dcully

Best streak was 47 with Widowmaker,got accused of hacking too lol.

So many heroes I really enjoy playing and very few I dislike playing.

Those Bastions are the worst, I always seem to end up getting killed by them.

Three shots from Widowmaker's sniper kills them, Genji's deflect skill also makes short work of them.

killed my first bastion with genji. feels good man.

winston is tons of fun, vault into the enemy position and cause mass panic allowing your team to mop up.

yeah imo ultys shouldn't count towards play of the game. 99% of them right now are junkrat or reaper ultys.

You know you're doing well when you get called a hacker.

Hah, nicely done you got him good. I was having a lot fun with D.Va the other night too, her ultimate is great for clearing out capture points and the like though I often get killed by it myself.

I did something stupid like that yesterday. Stood next to her shooting at her like an eejit without noticing she ejected. Bye bye me.

Made up for it in another game where a player set off the suit detonation on the point my team was defending. Playing as Mei I threw up an ice wall right next to the suit and protected the team.

I think its stuff like that which makes the game great. Its perfect for creating those memorable moments.

Did something very awesome as McCree when I snuck up behind the enemy team escorting one of those whatever trucks, did the Deadeye skill and took out 4 of them in an instant. One guy was left and I finished him off quick

Really enjoying what I've played of the beta but a bit annoyed that the PC version is 20 cheaper than the console version, I'd be much more likely to buy it at 40 and not get those skins or whatever the extra 20 gets you. Right now I think I'd wait on a sale to get it.

By the way, is it just me or is there no voice chat working at all? Haven't heard anything at all so far.

I have heard some folks talk, but it is very infrequent. Maybe its push to talk and nobody bothers (PC here).

You know, I'm not a big fan of game streaming at all, but on occasion I'm glad the current consoles are always recording away in the background :pac:

It was kinda awkward how long it took to capture the point after that team kill :pac:

pablomakaveli

I like how after you wiped their team that one teammate was just chilling out at the back instead of helping cap the point. Sums up a lot of players in this game.:pac:

It is 40 without skins...

You can't get that version on the consoles, only the Origins edition is available on the consoles.

Play of the game went to Mr.Turret who killed 3 people from a corner though :P


Also...for a few days I was confused about 'TEAMKILL'

At first I thought I somehow teamkilled my mates with my ultimate, I knew there was no friendly fire...but thought maybe my Ult could do it somehow....because I never heard 'Teamkill' used in any other way than a person killing his own team mate.

Then I thought it might be your team worked together and 3 or more people got an assist or kill on someone....meaning you worked together to get the kill....hence a team kill.

But it appears it's just an ACE , or Enemy team eliminated. They could really do with changing it.

Shanotheslayer

Really enjoying this.

Haven't gamed much in awhile on PC but will be definietly picking this up.

Have my tactics sorted for that game mode when moving the tank thing towards the base.

I go as Reinhardt and just constantly shield up and team mates usually do the rest of the business.

Enjoyable when people know what they're doing.

Canis Lupus

Such a great game and it can be so freakin hard. I'm going to have to put my money down on it. I hope it's not another Titanfall and I'm bored in about a week.

Also... This game makes me rage something terrible.

Penn

For some reason I thought this was an XB1 exclusive. Going to have to start checking out some gameplay vids etc. Definitely piques my interest.

Xenji

Ordered it today after playing the arse out of the beta the last two days, €46.75 on the Game Collection with a few Euro off with loyalty points.
