Overwatch Official Discussion, v2: ELO Hell (hello darkness my old friend)

[RogerTheAlien]

On my way to Diamond and decided to drink and play not 1 but 2 days this month. Dropped so much, I'm done for the season! feelsbadman.

Reaper is a beast. Once you get used to his invincibility move thing to bail out and find certain flanking routes/places to teleport you will shrekt people with him. I got his Pumpkinhead skin too from a box but I'm not sure if I like it more than his El Blanco skin.

I'm hoping to get the Mercy witch costume. If not I might end up buying it at the end (I have like 3900 coins right now). All the other Halloween stuff I don't really care too much about getting.

Yea Reaper is who I need to work on next. Been working on mastering Mei, Roadhog, and Soldier. Soldier is so great against all tanks except Reinhard cause of his shield. If you can get behind it though your good.

Don't know if I should ask here or the PC thread but anyways i'll try.

Has anyone had some weird screen color changed with the latest nvidia driver (375.63)? By color change I mean my whole screen changes to a random color within a couple of minutes playing during a match but the HUD still has their own color. Worst was it changed color twice and then slowly my screen went all black but with the HUD staying the same. Downgrading the driver seems to work as I thought it was me overclocking my GPU as it started to happen when I overclocked it more than I used to.

Reaper shits on tanks. Killing a Roadhog while he's eating his apple got me like:

lol I tried him yesterday and I'm just not good with him. I'm going to keep trying whenever I'm not on comp mode but man I'm just not getting it. This kid in my group played him a few times before we started comp mode and was tearing people up with him both in quick play and comp.

How'd you guys do on the Halloween skins?

I grinded a couple of QP hours every night with long sessions on Sundays to hit the reset at lvl 201. Thankfully I got all the 3000G skins in loot boxes so I was able to get any skin I was missing with all the gold I got via duplicates. The only characters I use though who had Halloween skins are Soldier, Reinhardt and Zenyatta.

I hit my reset right around the start of the Halloween event so I got tons of Halloween boxes. I think I got all of the skins except for Bastion. Obviously lots of other Halloween stuff too. I love using Soldier's "Knock knock" voice line. This voice and delivery just makes it sound creepy yet funny. I've also had a lot of fun using Ana to hand out candy before the matches start. I love these stupid little parts of the game.

I only got a few Junkenstein and one more but I forget which. What sucks is I got Junkenstein one after the other in loot boxes I was pissed.

Reaper Pumpkin x2
Pharah Ghost
Ana
Soldier Vampire
Hanzo Demon

I'm probably forgetting a couple. I ended up buying Mercy's today and also Reaper's highlight intro.

Why is the competition at Blizzcon country an not team organization based? Do all team members need to be from that country? Or were their qualifying regionals with team orgs and the winner assumed the country name?

It's really just more of a showcase/exhibition than a legit tournament. Hell, there's not even a big prize for winning, if I recall correctly.

They have plans for a legit Esports league though

Over a span of 4+ days I'm on a 400cp and counting slump.

Constantly grouped with leavers and toxic players, and I have no idea what I can do about it other than not play the game.

When are the Symmetra changes supposed to appear this month in ptr? Her being my most played and favorite character (and all but a handful of times have only used her for single matches, barely any best of three control point and no competitive play), I have a 14 elim average with her (should be higher, but dealt with bugs screwing up my average count like knocking it down .50 points after a higher than average elims match), and a 70 something percent win percentage, and a high teleported players average, but have only been using her in the past few months with teams I trust, so I am not getting as much play with her as I want.

Spent too much money buying Halloween loot boxes, but it's really the only time I'd spend any money on them anyway, way too busy in October to play enough to get all the Halloween items (and when I did I usually got duplicates or a voice line or spray), sometimes double of the same thing in one lootbox).

The game is still broken for me in terms of key bindings changes. In October the game changed a few of my key bindings by itself, then when I try to go in and change them back it always logs me out. A few are just altered duck bindings (no big deal unless I need to duck behind a payload), the biggest problem is that with a few characters like Ana and Junkrat it deleted by key binding for changing characters mid game, so I'm stuck with them for the whole match, there's no key bound to that option.

Was stuck with a guy who just ran at the enemy to feed them, for 4 comp games in a row. Fucking infuriating. Finally stop getting matched with him and won a game, but I'm down like 100 points on the night.

I pretty much wont do comp unless I have a team of three or more. I'll just do quick play and practice with characters I'm not very good at. Last night though we went like 1/3. Had some of the worst teams ever. This Reaper did his special on top of the payload so he missed everyone. Then he drops down and one shots everyone cause they are standing in front of the pay load (we only had to move it like one more inch). It was the worst reaper I'd ever seen in my life. The worst part is we needed a good reaper.

Sombra revealed finally

[fdswer]

when does all the Sombra porn come out

 

[Schoolboy Q]

Hopefully Sombra has cool legendary skins, I saved my coins.

 

[Dinotective]

That was a real step down from The Last Bastion.

Also, I thought Sombra was supposed to be from Mexico, not East L.A. She sounds like Cheech Marin.
