Overwatch PTR Patch Notes - July 18, 2018

Posted: 18 Jul 2018 05:09 PM PDT

[Opinion] With all the new heroes and CC abilities that are now in the game, Ana's speed boost really wouldn't be as OP as it was once before.

Posted: 18 Jul 2018 06:23 AM PDT

The general consensus regarding Ana's offensive ultimate (unlike other support's defensive ults) is that it feels lackluster since it got the speed buff removed. While we can also agree that an ulting Genji/Reaper/McCree where a bit too op.

But the thing is, Ana's nano is no longer as exciting as it was before, it felt soooo good to boost someone and see them go all in, it felt soooo good to BE boosted and break havok. (I always compare it to Rainbow Mario for some reason hehe)

I DO agree that a nano Rein or ulting Reaper/Genji can be too much, but nowadays we have characters like Brigitte (besides McCree, Sombra and even Ana herself) to counter them.

I think removing it completely was just too much, maybe they could do like with Lucio and just decrease the speed a little bit.

UPDATE!!! WOAH, Ana will now automatically heal her nano target with 300 HP!! Althought I certainly miss the speed boost, these changes will REALLY help her alot!!!

Brigitte Lindholm cosplay :)

Posted: 18 Jul 2018 09:13 AM PDT

The cosplay <3

I finally finished my Brigitte Lindholm cosplay. It took a lot longer than I thought but glad to have got it done. There's a couple things I'd like to tweak about it before wearing it again, but overall I'm happy with the outcome ;^

Was encouraged by some friends to share it here, so hope that's okay!

Literally unplayable. Redesign of Horizon Lunar Colony wants me to walk through a wall on defense

Posted: 18 Jul 2018 05:13 AM PDT

I was playing Mystery Heroes last night with some friends, and noticed that when playing on the recently modified Horizon Lunar Colony map (Defense mode), the arrows that point you to the first point were not updated. They now point you directly into a wall.

Literally unplayable, guys. How do I walk through walls? :)

PTR Concluded

Posted: 18 Jul 2018 11:36 AM PDT

PROGRESS UPDATE: I am improving all character designs by merging them with Torbjorn. Today, I am pleased to announce the latest tank additions to our roster: TORB15A, TORBHARDT, and the brand-new WRECKINGBJÖRN.

Posted: 18 Jul 2018 05:49 AM PDT

It's time to roll up our sleeves.

Blizzard's character design is consistently strong, but even Michaelangelo accepted a helping hand from time to time. I have been slowly amassing screenshots of what this game could be, if only the right character redesigns were made.

Today, I would ask that you journey with me to the streets of Numbani where a young girl with bravery and moxy in equal measure has perfected the art of massive hammers. Then, we journey onwards to a cluttered workbench shared by a young enterprising hamster and his beard. Lastly, we will visit a scene of triumph as an old war hero relives the glories of his past and the glories of unshaven, unbridled facial manhood.

Every turret needs legs to stand on, and these tank heroes serve as that vital and irreplaceable base in any team comp.

Meet Torbhardt, Torbisa, and Wreckingbjorn, the three latest additions to Dwarverwatch.

Join me at past stops in our journey here: 1 2 3 4

Who should be next?

Voice Actor's Reactions to X-men Skins

Posted: 18 Jul 2018 06:00 AM PDT

Hi everyone,

Xtremee_ghost here and I can't contain the joy of finally meeting a good amount of the overwatch voice actors cast. Last weekend I had the chance to see, greet and hug them at Florida Supercon.

Every Overwatch Character + Bonus as X-men https://imgur.com/gallery/CVTOC

THEY LOVED MY ARTWORK and where speaking of how awesome would it be to have it as skin, so in order I'll tell you what they said or though when I walked in to their table, I don't remember all exact words tho.

MEI: Omg Sexy! She looks like widow maker (she said on past panel that she would like Mei to have ice movements like ice man from the X-men alas shooting ice to create a skating surface like her highlight intro, loved it)

JUNKRAT: Im not worthy (Yes you are shush ='))

PHARAH : OMG HER BOOBS, HER HAIR, THIS IS THE MOST BOOBIEST AND HAIRFUL PHARAH I SEEN, how can she fly with boobs so big (I kinda lost my shit lol she is adorable)

HANZO: Wow this is amazing work.

SOMBRA : PHSYLOCKE OF COURSE, AND THOSE HIPS!!! (then she boooped me)

WIDOWMAKER : Wow great job, love it (she was excited since France won the World Cup)

SYMETRA: I have no words to express the joy in symetra's reaction so here's a video https://www.instagram.com/p/BlWfYreHv0g/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=14vrpfkgjqquc

ROADHOG: THAT'S IS FREAKING COOL, (THEN HE GAVE ME A ROADHOG BUSTERS POSTER xD) he also recoreded a video, unsure when will be up.

MERCY : I already have shown this to her in person but she made sure I knew how much she loved the red hair and the wings.

They made my weekend for sure. And I just wanted to share this moment with you all.

Until the next Mashup xD

EDIT: BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW https://www.change.org/p/marvel-x-men-skins-for-overwatch-characters

Overwatch as X-men THANK YOU https://imgur.com/gallery/FN5Iafq

Same game. Same guy. The best sleeps I ever hit. Was so baffled, I played like a complete moron afterwards.

My first Zenyatta Ult that saved the team from a death blossom, which I was really proud of and wanted to share.

Brigitte desperately needs a voiceline, where she pronounces her name correctly!

Posted: 18 Jul 2018 09:02 AM PDT

"For the last time, my name is Brigitte! BRI-GI-TTE!"

Similar to her daddy, who lets you know for the last time, that he is swedish.
But seriously, every other player butchers Brigittes name big time. The worst offender is probably the version, which incorporates "bridge". And all of that doesn't even feel like a meme, but more of a genuine lack of knowledge, when it comes to the pronunciation of her name.

WW1 Christmas Truce of 1914 (Colourised)

Posted: 18 Jul 2018 11:24 AM PDT

After exactly a year of this comic, will we ever see these skins in-game?

Posted: 18 Jul 2018 11:23 AM PDT

https://i.imgur.com/3YcuSKu.png

These skins came out as part of the Overwatch Masquerade comic. When first released, the consensus seemed that people wanted these skins in-game, although nothing has been even remotely teased.

Would you guys still be interested in Blizzard considering it? It's interesting considering that Blizzard is pretty good at releasing skins shortly after a comic was released (cool Hanzo being an exception), but in this one we've heard NOTHING.
