Overwatch

I might join, I know you get more XP when playing in groups.

I won't be around tonight but I'll be around tomorrow night! Really want to test out the online with people to talk to.

[DementedSun]

So who does everyone prefer playing as thus far? As a Sniper main in TF2, Widowmaker always gets my pick if my team isn't doing much to support the defense. Really enjoy D.va and Winston too, anything with high mobility and survivability without a medic makes me happy in pubs.

We're gonna play and stream some Overwatch in about 15 minutes. If you wanna join the game, I can send you an invite or just watch below. (I'll post the VOD on the channel afterwards as well.)

Anyone still talking about this? Sombra just came out and I want to talk about how great it is to hack a Bastion out of turret mode and teleport back across the map before his Roadhog can punish you.

i haven't played this since it came out. i should really pick it back up. does anyone wanna game on ps4 sometime (baring in mind that i will most likely be awful since i've barely played)

[DementedSun]

I've been playing quite a bit, although this competitive season is shit. I'm stuck with useless players once again, even though I'm over 3k rank. Sombra is sadly one of the worst characters in the game, and if a team has her on it, they lose 100% of the games I've seen. I really hope they stop resetting the ranks each season, because I really, really, really, really don't want to play with people who don't understand even the most basic of strategies at this level.

I've been playing on my nephew's PS4 but I don't know his account name and plus I've been completely absorbed into Dark Souls 3 and I just can't seem to tear myself from it for more than 2 or 3 bullshit non competitive rounds.

Honestly I feel like that's cause people keep trying to get kills with her. Sure her clip is nice and long but she's definitely more support. Maybe if you were really good at jumping in and jumping out of combat she might work better. Like a more hands off Tracer. Bother and chase but much more hands off.

Also she's most useful hacking health packs.

the thing about Sombra is that you're probably only going to be able to hack once against a decent team. Then-on they're gonna know to watch out for you.

[DementedSun]

The thing is, at any decent level of game play, nobody needs/goes to health packs. A Sombra just cuts your team down one offense, as she can't reliably take out anyone behind 1v1. Even a Mercy can easily kill her off. Her hack is useless against pretty much everyone, as they can just turn around and shoot her quicker than she can take them out even without abilities. She needs her hack duration buffed, and not able to be interrupted so easily. Even as an annoyance, you'd be better off with a tracer who can take out key targets fast, and then get back to group up with the team.

[Adam]

Yeah. It also sucks that her teleporter can be seen so easily. It's best for defensive use but you can hardly hide. That and the fact that even though her clip is huge, it's got no kill power. The only real time you're a danger is if you're invisible behind a Reaper on your team. idk man. I'm in the low 2000s and I main Mei.

I got this game for Christmas. Would anyone want to play sometime? I'm MetalHero#1152 on battle.net.
