Support NeoGAF

[BlackGhost]

Hot.

He's useful assault wise but his sound gun is weak.

I love pushing ppl over edges with the sound gun, so satisfying.

 

[XaosWolf]

Pushing with the soundblast is beast.

And fun! =D

Wallruning across to a Widow and blasting her off a cliff is euphoric.

 

[Matrix XII]

Soundblast + Greece Map = LOLOLOLOL

Haha, that is so fun to do on that map.

 

[super-famicom]

LOL at the thread title. Can't believe the thread it referenced is still open.

 

[Speely]

Last time I saw a D.Va kill anyone with her Ultimate.

You playing against good teams/high MMR players? In scrubville it's really easy to get multikills with her ult still.

 

[Anoregon]

>open loot box
>2 epics!
>emote and currency

Life is pain. There is no god.

 

[Canucked]

Are there physical copies of the overwatch comics available?

 

[Sifl]

Everytime a team loses, if there's a Widowmaker or Hanzo on their team the loss should be negated. These randoms are getting on my nerves.

 

[orthodoxy1095]

Just read Toblerone's comic. Pretty good.

Two hours and we're on page 8 of the new OT jaysus

GAF is thirsty

 

[Rats Off To Ya]

Last time I saw a D.Va kill anyone with her Ultimate.

I get one occasionally. I've started firing my mech high up when I do it, easier to catch people unaware when it drops down.

 

[Ambient80]

Excellent OT title

May play some tonight but my free time to play has unfortunately almost run out. Vacation last week, now I have to work all the time. Ah well.

Game is easily my GOTY so far tho.

 

[Papercuts]

I got disconnected, sorry Papercut. I needed a break anyways, lol.

NP. That game was a fucking mess anyway, goddamn.

 

[Gryph]

small exp boost.

It doesn't give an EXP boost. It gives you literally nothing.

Last time I saw a D.Va kill anyone with her Ultimate

I'm still getting one or two by boosting the Meka up above and letting it arc down onto the point where the enemy is hanging out, people can't predict their cover as well if it's falling from the sky...

 

[GuitarGuruu]

That title lol! I still look forward to playing this game daily, such great fun.

 

[Speely]

Hey guys. What if they make a hero that temporarily silences your team in regard to what the enemy can hear? What if Sombra can do that, for example? With how much the sound design directly affects gameplay, I would not be surprised.

Would that be too much with Ults?

It figures that my Overwatch fanart thread has the most views of any thread I've ever made.

People are thirsty.

 

[ZAMtendo]

I can't wait to get this game!

 

[Ecto311]

It gives you nothing except fuzzy feelings at the moment.

[Ramirez]

That early game with me as DVa and you as Mercy was the stuff of dreams.

It would have to her ult in that case

 

[chaobreaker]

I said this in the previous thread but has anyone experience toxicity in matchmaking? I have seen no BMing or flaming in the 12 hours I played the game. overwatch.txt makes it sound like this game is as toxic as the average MOBA game.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

when someone on your team dies and says "wtf need healers" and switches to hanzo

 

[Nightmare452]

Alright OT2 - Whats your most played character so far

Spoiler

Torbjorn (turret power!)

Very surprised he is my most played hero according to time spent. According to my official stats, both Lucio and Roadhog are tied for second most played characters, which seems right up my alley. I'm surprised Reinhardt, Tracer and Zenyatta aren't on my top 3 heros played, I love to shield push on several maps and run around with Trace. Zenyatta I use as my attacking healer and am often on fire, but I guess matches don't last as long.

 

[Speely]

It would have to her ult in that case

Oh totally. That kind of power on a simple cooldown would make her a must-have for every team.

 

[Gryph]

See, now we're confusing Nymeria...

The end match MVP cards give you nothing. Even if you get epic, even if you get legendary. This might change in the future, who knows, but at the moment they give no tangible bonus. They make me feel good about myself, but other than that, they're meaningless.

You get nothing, good day sir.

 

[Kawngi]

Okay, I LOL'd at the OT title

So few people use mics on PS4 that I haven't.

I had one guy that kept cursing "that fucking bitch" (Tracer) but that was as bad as it has gotten.

 

[sineclamor]

I actually am having tons more fun with this now that I switched from primarily attack/defense heroes to tank/support. My aim is really crappy but I guess my mind for gameflow is sound. Putting in some work tonight with rein and zen.

 

[OVDRobo]

Last time I saw a D.Va kill anyone with her Ultimate.

Still a good ult since you can use it when the ejection warning is flashing when your Meka hits 0 health. It's basically a free mech regardless of if you kill someone or not if you can back up correctly. I've got a decent amount of kills by ejecting with the ult at 0 mech health, then hopping in a new mech and mowing down anyone that chased me.

I miss the days of getting team kills with the ult though, I will admit.

 

[BrettWeir]

Sooooooo, bought.

As a solo player who loves support types in MMO's, who should I play?

(I have no friends that play games QQ)

 

[Zaventem]

Jesus Christ, i'm playing on console and the settings for some specific characters will not stay for anything. Literally don't know what the issue is.

 

[super-famicom]

Does anyone else say "Thank you" to your team when you win Rounds in a match? I usually do, hope it makes other players feel happy.

Lucio and Mercy are great healers.

What platform are you playing on? Quote the OP to see the link for the Google Doc of GAF user names for all the platforms.

Props.

 

[Trail Guide]

I hardly ever play online shooters. The last time I played one was when Battlefield 4 first came out. Took a chance on this one because of all the high praise and I've had a blast.

Played Winston for the first time tonight and despite my initial hesitation with him I ended up having a lot of fun. Jumping over an enemy team is so much fun. It's such a great way to kill Mercy or Bastion from behind. Have not had too much luck with his special but it if nothing else its a great way to get a bunch of health and escape a bad situation.

Embrace the rhythm and play Lucio. He's all about passive healing and providing his team with a speed boost. Also he's fast and can wall-ride with his roller blades, which is awesome.

 

[Kid Ska]

lmao just attacked hollywood with two genjis, a widow, and a hanzo and dude after the match goes "WE NEEDED A HEALER TANK AND BUILDER"

yea aight a builder on attack

if it wasn't obvious we got stomped

 

[Rhaknar]

Always gg at least. And in particulary good matches, I gg the other team in general chat also, in a non sarcastic way

 

[Azure Phoenix]

Such a shame you'll never see that intro for Lucio since his gun is ridiculously weak and decent players aren't foolish enough to walk close to edges when they know a Lucio is around. It's sad because played correctly he can lock down half a team on his own for an entire game - god knows I've done it with my asshole hyperactive playstyle on Hollywood defence - but that isn't classed as impressive enough for POTG.

Thank you!

**Edit, Lucio reminds me of DeeJay..........hell yeah.

This advice is sound.

Yeah, on PS4 I've only had the usual PS4 mic owning suspects.

1. People who have their music playing in the background so I have to listen to it.
2. People who have broken mics that screech like dying whales all match.
3. People who are talking with their girlfriend about where to get takeout from.
4. And two-three bros who are super amped about the game and shouting advice to whichever one has the controller.

People who actually want to talk to the team? 0. No real toxicity though. I imagine ranked will have a lot of yelling from people who consider themselves "serious, pro-aspirant players" but I usually mute those guys.

 

[Tabby]

People better not be talking shit about my man Lucío.

 

[super-famicom]

I'm on PS4, so no chat for me. Would definitely type GG if I could.

Do people really use mics much anymore anywhere?

Bonus!

Only in GAF party chat.

Plus the slight damage it does if it happens to land on someone xD
