Its pretty frustrating when there's literally nothing you can do because the other team is just that much better than you and you know it. Its a fun game, but boy is it frustrating. But that is every competitive FPS.

I hear that a lot, but I guess I just have a different POV. If I truly feel like it's unfair and that I couldn't have won, I don't really care too much about the loss. There's not really anything you could have done about it after all. That said, I think a lot of the frustration in Overwatch seems to come from close games. At least in my groups that's what I experience. People get mad when we're constantly on the brink.

But I kinda like it. I don't think pub stomping is a ton of fun.

yeah everything team based is kinda brutal.
Rainbow Six is the same situation, although you can kinda solo in that if you're good enough

It gets more complicated when it's reliant not only skill but character composition. I haven't really played many games like that since I never got into the moba scene at all.
It's still real early too so people are only learning one or two basic combos.
I see the Bastion w/ Reinhardt team up A LOT in pubs now

I don't think it's the team experience. That's more of a scapegoat/excuse than anything else. Yeah, maybe your team was bad, but guess what? You were on your team!

Another reason I love the 1v1 experience.

You say anything "team based" is kinda brutal. I don't think that adds frustration personally. It just provides an easy scapegoat.

There's a reason FFA arena games aren't popular anymore. It's harder on your own.

You should give SMITE or maybe Paragon a try if you're interested in checking out a MOBA but less interested in RTS interfaces. Smite is great and the arena mode provides an easy point of entry for new players. And it's free.

Half truth and half lie imo. Your team can make or break your game. If you are excellent at the game but you are matched up with 4 vegetables, the opposig team of 5 mediocre players still have a good chance to win.

Its easy to blame the tram, but some times you just get matched with odiots as well. Seems to me to be extra common in OW as it has a gazillion olayers, most of which i imagine syck donkey nards.

With all the gitting gud you should be matching with better players. That means better teammates too.

I guess you're at the mercy of your team more explicitly in Overwatch than some other team games.. a little.

Match making is a bit of a double-edged sword I guess.

I just think that in a "moba" sort of way maybe, your combos have a huge outcome on your game.
You can run the right offensive character but if your team doesn't understand how to compliment your character, or another viable counter it's a huge detriment.
Most teammates don't understand why you're getting run out of town and don't switch around. Though I do agree it's getting better as we level up naturally

I do like this aspect of the game too, I should mention

My earlier comment was mostly that when you're reliant on strangers it is a gamble in games structured as such

It's only June but I think for many people.. yes. It's going to consume most of my gaming time anyway.

I don't want to derail the thread but there have been many great releases this year. My favorites so far have been Street Fighter V, Overwatch, and Doom. But there's been some action in the "AAA" console space as well with stuff like Uncharted and Quantum Break. And there's more coming. I'm also looking forward to Civilization 6 and Battlefield 1 as far as big brands go. There's lots of good stuff for gamers in 2016.

Maybe we got the icing before the cake :D

More talk on competitive play and latency

I've not noticed latency issues yet I don't think, however with Roadhog sometimes you get hooked around objects or even through objects.
Is this a design choice, latency, or something that needs to get fixed?

You guys experience this as well?

You haven't experienced latency issues but you've seen people get hooked through walls? :D

The netcode isn't perfect. It is known.

There have been like two hot-fixes so far today.

The hook shouldn't go through objects

I really need to get back to other things I should be working on!

This game is taking over my life!!!


Finally got into some crazy ass games last night. No one was really successful pushing payload on either side in multiple maps. Though our team did push the farthest!
No one won tho

This is weird...

Overwatch doesn't always shoot where you aim.

It seems to effect a small range of very specific angels, but there's a lot of vertical combat in the game.

They should probably fix that.

It won't save you from getting shot out of the sky with Pharah unfortunately :D

Yup Overwatch has BS hitboxes. That's not an accident.

I hope they tune them.

That said... your relative aim still matters. It just reduces the skill ceiling. Amazingly some people still can't kill.
