The Buffs Winston Needs Posted: 18 May 2018 04:48 PM PDT Hi there I am Winston main with over an hour of quick play and mystery heroes on Winston. With Papi Jeff saying recently that no Winston rework was happening I was personally offended and decided to use all my knowledge of Winston to come up with several buffs that would help his kit. Let him wall climb I think this is an obvious buff as people have questioned for awhile why can ninjas climb walls while gorillas can only jump really high plz Blizzard thats not how gorillas work. Here is a visual representation of the wall climb from the side And one from the back (side note don't Google: Winston from behind) Give him a Moon laser Another obvious buff here. Winston is from the moon and therefore should be given a classic moon laser beam that can penetrate everything including walls and other players dreams. Here is what that would look like in game Let him ring the bells on Dorado with his primary fire Honestly this is the most important buff of all the ones discussed. All the other important heroes can ring the bells and all I want to do as a gorilla trying to fit into society is join in the fun and play the Futurama theme Blizzard plz fix or I will quit playing hearthstone. Here is what that would look like in game Don't allow Mei to freeze him From my years of Biology I know that gorillas do not live in the Arctic and therefore cannot freeze so why can one scientist with a tiny chilly beam. In my mind this completely removes all immersion and should therefore be removed from the game. I couldn't be bothered rendering this in the game engine so here is a link to a video that changed my life Remove Bastion from the game I don't have to explain my self here I recommend giving him away to Fortnite as I don't play that game. You can replace him with another Winston. Here is what that would look like in game Add a secondary fire to Winston that turns him into a turret Without Bastion in the game the much loved pirate ship strat would not be possible. To change this we can give Winston a turret ability which would shoot tiny Symmetras to heavily tilt the opposing team. Here is what that would look like in game Thanks for reading if you disagree with me on any points I will dismiss you as a pre-rework Hanzo main making all your points invalid. submitted by /u/DaToddHS [link] [comments]

Blizz, we're still waiting for Reinhardt's bugfixes Posted: 18 May 2018 09:00 AM PDT Jeff Kaplan replied to a post 5 months ago about how Rein would be looked into but we're still waiting. Earthshatter was supposed to be fixed in early April but it's still bugged as well. With his pickrate rising in the current meta he should be one of the priorities of fixing at the moment as he's been plagued by issues for a very long time now. Earthshatter issues Seems to me like these problems would be solved if the way Earthshatter worked wasn't overly complicated. It's 5 projectiles going outward when it should just be a traveling cone with a LOS check, that way small angles don't nitpick what gets hit and what does not, and so it does not climb walls. Doomfist unaffected by Earthshatter in the open Mercy unaffected by Earthshatter from a wall but in open LOS Mercy again unaffected but a wall is on her side Doomfist hit by Earthshatter in the same spot Earthshatter climbing up objects on Hollywood Earthshatter climbing up a wall on Junkertown Charge bug Rein's charge has been attempted to be fixed multiple times but it seems every time they try to fix something it ends up breaking it more. Not pinning targets is still a problem but now charge is grabbing people behind Reinhardt. Examples: https://gfycat.com/WaterloggedCompetentJavalina https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1s_dQ9J3s8 Rein/Doomfist uppercut bug There's also a bug between the interaction of Doomfist and his uppercut. While I understand the intention of of uppercut meaning to force a backward momentum, charge's rocket should overpower it. It's just like how booping D.Va or Orisa while they shoot not affecting them as much is considered a bug, this should be as well. Example: https://gfycat.com/ColorfulDismalKingsnake Tracer's pulse bomb damages through Rein's shield There's a post that goes into detail about this problem right here. Basically if Tracer sticks the front of the shield at an angle it will still damage Reinhardt through his shield. The most important problem is Earthshatter, but any other fixes for Rein would be greatly appreciated. submitted by /u/aronh17 [link] [comments]

Just had a really heartwarming moment Posted: 18 May 2018 04:02 PM PDT Go into a competition tie match on volsyke industries, and immediately I hear on voice chat this (maybe 8yo kid talking). I think, '' ah dammit'... Surprising we go on to dominate, opposing team don't take first point and we take the point quickly on our go... But I digress, kids adorable, always on voice checking things with '' daddy'', mentions he's streaming as well. I make good convo, cause, christ, little kids can get torn to pieces on voice chat at times. But I have to leave, I get his twitch name to follow him. After I leave the game I open up his twitch to have a look and with the streaming delay time I'm watching and listening to myself saying 'I have to go', after I leave I hear the kid say '' daddy I just made a really nice friend today'' That warmed my heart so much it was so adorable, I mean he even had the young kid' lisp' as he said it. Anyway, no real point to this, just a really wonderful moment that I loved and wanted to share. Be nice to kids on voice chat. submitted by /u/Eddie-stark [link] [comments]

Predicting hero 28 through the sub roles Blizz is pushing each hero into... Posted: 18 May 2018 10:37 AM PDT Originally, each and every hero felt unique and while this is still the case, the roles that blizz is pushing each hero into means that what is missing from the line up is becoming more predictable.   With that, I predict that the next hero potentially could be a defensive Lurker as Blizz is starting to double down on roles....mainly in the dps catagory. What do you think? Also, this list assumes that the new symmetra rework has gone ahead.   Tanks   Frontline Tanks - Rein, Orisa, Winston These 3 tanks in a competitive game more often than not determine the team composition whether it be deathball/quad tank, Bunker comp or Dive comp. These 3 tank absorb most of the damage and are often the initiators.   Off Tanks - Zarya, Roadhog, Dva These 3 tanks are used to synergise with the Frontline tank. They usually make the frontline tanks stronger whilst dealing plenty of damage themselves. Zarya works best with Rein, Hog with Orisa and Dva with Winston.   Supports   Aura healers - lucio, Brigette Hard to kill and works best when the team is clumped together.   Mid range healers - Mercy, Moira highly evasive and strong beam healing.   Long range healers - Ana, Zen bad mobility backline healers who should be prioritised first.   Close range DPS   Harrassers - Tracer, Sombra Great at getting behind the enemy and can teleport to escape. They annoy the the enemy with weak rapid fire shots which if left alone, can kill.   Assassins - Genji, Doomfist Similar to harrassers, however, their mobility is not quite as high but deal greater chip damage from afar. Excell at killing an enemy by diving in with a combo and then diving back out.   Lurker - Reaper Less mobile that assassins but deal very high damage by hiding round corners and then escaping.   Mid range DPS   Mid range hitscan - Soldier 76, Mcree bad escape skills and low damage from afar but extremely accurate due to weapons hit scan nature.   Mid range projectile - Hanzo, Junkrat Lower accuracy than hitscan but full damage from afar, great shield breaking, good at escaping and reaching high ground.   Disruptor - Mei, Symmetra short range beam weapon, slowing weaponry and a skill which can move your team to higher ground.   Long range DPS   Deployers - Torb, Bastion Requires full deployment to reach full potential. Immobile but can self sustain.   Long range DPS - Pharah, Widow Easy access to high ground and can escape if needed. Can gain easy access to the whole battlefield and is usually too far away for the enemy team to hit reliably submitted by /u/iiboxs3 [link] [comments]

Request: Jeff Kaplan AMA to celebrate 2 years of Overwatch. Posted: 18 May 2018 05:10 PM PDT As we reach 2 years since launch, one thing I notice about the fan base is how crazy we all are for every bit of info we get, either a mention of a hero being on the buffing table or a fun story regarding the development of the game. To celebrate the 2 year mark and since this subreddit reached 1 million subscribers a few months ago this would be the perfect opportunity to ask Papa Jeff some questions, I think it would be awesome. Please Daddy Jeff, hear us. submitted by /u/thejpfg [link] [comments]
