Overwatch D.va - Fan Skin (Pilot) By Grigory Lebidko

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 09:37 AM PST

Zenyatta has a new HUD element on PTR showing the health of your Discord and Harmony targets

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 03:51 PM PST

Shown here.

It's at the bottom right, and it shows the health bars of both your Discord and Harmony Orb targets.

I think this is an awesome change, so thanks Blizzard!

Overwatch's Snow is Salt

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 04:42 AM PST

It has recently come to my attention that Overwatch's snow is not snow at all. It is just the accumulation of the built up salt throughout the year being shown to us during this one event.

Adding a “First to 20” Deathmatch Mode to Mei’s Snowball Offensive would greatly improve the overall fun factor of the game

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 01:12 PM PST

So first off, I don't remember Mei's Snowball Offensive being this fun last year but I think the addition of the Black Forest map has definitely improved it.

As of right now, the mode utilizes a Team Deathmatch sort of format. This is fun and all, but one of the major flaws of the mode is how stale and slow it gets if you get eliminated early (I know, "git gud", but realistically only one player can be the last man standing and someone's gotta be taken out first). You have to sit and watch the rest of your team, sometimes for quite a long time, and that's pretty boring.

I propose if not changing to, at least adding in a single Deathmatch sort of version that would act pretty much exactly like the original Deathmatch mode, with respawns and whatnot, and make it first to 20. I think this would make the mode much more accessible and more fun overall to play, with less downtime cluttering it.

I'm pretty sure you can set up something similar in a custom match, but it's not super realistic since it's not like you'll have a consistent player base.

I don't speak Hindi, but my parents do. Here's what the sign in the Yeti Hunt game means.

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 01:08 PM PST

Sign #1 for those who don't know. You see this when you spawn as a Mei

Warning, don't feed.

Apparently, the third word might be in a Nepalese dialect or something because it gave my parents a bit of trouble. Overall though, this is what the sign means.

Edit: /u/1515_ says that this sign says

So do not feed.

Edit: I actually noticed that there is 1 more sign. I'mma see if I can get that translated too.

Sign #2 The second sign (the one without the drawing of the Yeti) is the same as the first. It can be found next to the Yeti's spawn cave.

Be careful

Be cautious, avoid

Be cautious, danger, avoid

Translating from Hindi to English is kinda imprecise. As long as you get the idea of what's being said many words can be valid. And again, these might be in a strange dialect of some sort, so these won't all be exactly correct.

Today is the 1 year anniversary of Symmetra's rework hitting live, and Shield Gen STILL has no in-game stats.

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 04:49 AM PST

December 13 2016: Symmetra rework hit live servers.

A whole year

So why does Shield Gen still provide us with no in-game stats? We actively get punished for using it in comp. Why is it acceptable to leave it this way for an entire year?

Playing Symm is already an uphill battle with how weak she is, especially with this new Moira issue with her orbs destroying turrets. The least Blizzard could do is take some time to fix something thats been broken a year and not gimp our SR.

At this point it feels like Blizzard are intentionally neglecting Symmetra. Alternatively they could stop ignoring the 3000 post Symmetra Megathread (the largest thread I've ever seen without a dev response) on the forums.

It takes 5 seconds to let us know you're listening.

e: Thanks for getting this to frontpage, guys. Its nice to know SOMEONE cares, even if Blizzard don't.

Reaction to Casual Hanzo

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 11:58 AM PST

New PTR update

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 03:10 PM PST

It's about 1.9 GB

Proof

Edit;

  • First thing I noticed is that the Mercy rez will cancel if the teammate spawned before the rez is completed. The rez will still be available and won't go on cooldown. Demonstration, normal rez

  • Second thing, thanks to u/dvivoni for pointing it out, is that Zen has received the much awaited UI change of displaying the health of his Harmony target AND his discord target. 1 2

  • Doomfist can punch Mei through Cryofreeze. This might be a bug. Found it in QP but it happens almost consistently again in a custom game vs AI Mei. It just moves her but doesn't hurt her. Demonstration

  • Doomfist also can punch Bastion out of his Sentry Configuration with his Rocket Punch, but not with his raising apricot. Demonstration

  • Doomfist can punch an ulting Junkrat. Demonstration. Thanks Zimbi for helping me test this.

  • Resurrect now might trigger voice lines from resurrected characters.

  • Patch notes are live but are, as usual incomplete. I couldn't find a link, but here's a screenshot of in-client patch notes

Is the Hanzo's new skin portrait supposed to look like it's unfinished?

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 05:22 AM PST

PTR: Zenyatta now can see how much damage or healing he is doing with discord and healing orbs

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 04:22 PM PST

Ways to fix Hanzo's new skin

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 08:02 AM PST

  1. Change the color of his beard so that it matches his hair

  2. Pull his pants up a bit

  3. Remove the poop dragon

  4. FFS, Blizzard, fix the goddamn character portrait! It looks like it was rendered in pre-Playstation 2 graphics!

EDIT: I have to make this clear: I don't hate the skin. I think it looks pretty good. There are just some things in it that I'm very nitpicky about. If they're only going to change one thing, if any, make the character portrait look more finished.

I also have a Darkwatch collection as well you can find here http://artofdat.com/#/overwatch-x-rockabilly/

The new winter wonderland dynamic background is fantastic, why not create one that flicks between each hero as a base game background?

Posted: 13 Dec 2017 03:29 PM PST

For example, one slide shows Junkrat and Roadhog in Junkertown, the next slide is Moira in her dark lab, the next is Mei in Eco-point Antartica and so on. It would be much more interesting to look at and since it would be an all year round background (unless an event is active), it would be worth creating.
