CryingWestern Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Well I'm in the Americas... so all that's needed is the skype... you should be able to see it on my account page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mkilbride Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Super disappointed the way the cosmetics are handled though. You can get about 1.20 lootboxes an hour(Sometimes less, if you lose as well). You have a 0.5% chance of obtaining the Skins. (0.05% for Tracers, because Blizzard are greedy fucks.) You only have 1 chance for an Olypmic item per lootbox. Super disappointing. Even if I play 5-6 hours every night in a group during the event, well... Normally, it'd be fine, but these are limited to 3 weeks - and you can't use Currency. I have 4,200 currency saved specifically for skins and the like I'd want...yet Blizzard...bah. Also, first guy to hit Level 700: https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/4w4qab/first_world_silver_starlevel_700/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenophilious Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Is anyone else getting disconnection problems? This is now the third day in a row I've been unable to play several games in a row without it DC'ing me at least once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard just did a ban wave about 3-4 days ago. Right afterwards - the DDos started happening. Just idiot people. Also, Overwatch is now the fastest selling PC game of all time. https://pvplive.net/c/overwatch-becomes-the-fastest-selling-pc-game-of-a http://www.polygon.com/2016/8/4/12382000/overwatch-15-million-players Pretty impressive. I remember so many people saying this game was going to flop, because Blizzard "Took too long and the hype has died" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisPZT Posted August 10, 2016 Author Share Posted August 10, 2016 Went on holiday and forgot to check this thread, I'll update the OP tomorrow with everyone's tags. And yeah I recommend everyone get Skype,, it makes it easier to get together as a group and play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mkilbride Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Why not use Discord? Discord is free, better sound quality, doesn't use up even 1/5th of the resources Skype does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisPZT Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 We could use discord but there are already a lot of fuwanovel members on skype so it just made more sense at the time. It all depends on what everyone else wants I guess. EDIT: I updated the OP, let me know if I missed anyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasDice Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 This was very predictable, but I am still speechless by the feels. I love every single thing about this short. kyrt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyrt Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I generally use discord over skype for gaming but skype is I think the same as anything else which is kyrt (you can tell it's me because I have an avatar of either a metal gear prinny or firo) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zenophilious Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 How did everyone place? I played one really bad game in Season 1 and didn't want to do any more, so I decided to do a full set of placement matches in Season 2. I got put in Gold, with a Skill Rating of 2,370. Don't really know if that's good or not, since I don't know what the average Skill Rating is. I'm sure if I play McCree enough I can bring it down to a nice, even 2,000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jun Inoue Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Here I am, to join the good people! My tag is Gistradagis#2714, and EU ftw ;o Skype is spongebobthemagnific btw. I know, best name ever. Haven't regretted it at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisPZT Posted November 4, 2016 Author Share Posted November 4, 2016 Haven't checked this thread in ages... Maybe I'll update the OP but I doubt anyone reads it anyway. Anywho new character Sombra finally revealed. Check out the new animated short of her: TexasDice 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenophilious Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I'm kinda surprised that Blizzard didn't just cave halfway through the ARG and just give us Sombra. Hopefully they won't needlessly drag things on that long. I mean, they were teasing her from before they released Ana, FFS. That said, I'm ready for all the salt her hacking will bring. By the way, if you play 15 games (game mode or difficulty of AI doesn't matter) of Heroes of the Storm with a friend, you'll get this sweet Oni Genji skin. More info. I don't even play Genji that much, but I NEED this skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For once there was a game that doesn't have the dumbest mechanic imaginable in a multiplayer game, and Blizzard ruined it. Invis is the stupidest thing in Starcraft, in Dota, in TF2, and even in LoL from what little I've played, and now Overwatch has it too.

Getting insta-gibbed by some asshole you couldn't see, and couldn't react to, never feels good. I loathed LeBlanc, and when Kha'Zix was super strong everyone hated both him and the people playing him with a fiery passion (he had invisibility as an ult, jumps that could go over terrain, and he did more damage to people that weren't grouped together). I hope her overall kit power is set accordingly, because extreme burst capability coupled with invisibility and denial of ability usage sounds like pure cancer. Here's to hoping she has Tracer's health pool of 150. Invisibility is kind of a gimmick mechanic, isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the way it's done in Starcraft you can at least tell invis units are there, even if you can't target them, and it's still cancer. Whoever was the first to decide that an ability that makes it impossible to see someone (when people get 99% of their information about a game by looking at it) is a good idea in multiplayer wasn't a very smart person.

Zenophilious Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Just played Sombra in the PTR...she's got 200 HP. Good news is that if you get the jump on her, she's really easy to kill. Her gun does more damage than I expected, though, and her invisibility gives her more movement speed, which is kinda stupid, IMO. Her CDs might need to be messed with so failing to play correctly is more punishing, especially her invisibility, which is only a 6 second CD.

kyrt Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Been trying out Sombra in the PTR as well and in the quick play scenario she is very easy to counter. If you can find her teleport you can set up a trap for her pretty easily and even if not she's pretty squishy. The fact she exits as soon as being hit means she's unlikely to sneak up in middle of a firefight. If anything her main purpose seems to be harass from behind. Her inclusion though means we might be seeing more defense heroes actually being used and likely an increase in winston usage. Honestly when first fighting her people might find her overpowered but over time she becomes semi-predictable. They do need to get rid of her ability to constantly keep respawning health packs though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
