Played like 5 games of this and every play of the game is his turret firing down a corridor, he's always at the top of both teams too

Just had a quick go before work, played as Phara, quick win and play of the game 8-)

Had no idea what her ultimate did, used it twice just to kill a Tracer :fp:

Anyone on PS4?

I'm not enjoying the characters I expected but I'm having fun.

Don't really like pharah as her rockets are really hard to hit against mobile enemies.

The only attacker I really like is tracer, because her mobility and damage offsets her low health. McCree is alright too, but he's not very mobile, has crazy dps though.

The dwarf is really the only defender I like.

LOVE Roadhog, D-va and Zaryia too.

And Lucio is my favourite support. Getting environmental kills with him is so fun.

Played some of this and it is fun, but damn am I gooseberry fool at it. Played as only 3 people though, Mai (I think,) some cowboy looking guy and some woman with like a battlesuit thingy and she can hover. I got 0 kills, but in my first match did a lot of damage, and got the most votes for the vote thing at the end... What ever that is/does.

How long is the open beta on for? Might give it a try.

They haven't, though, because he isn't also a tank. Very easy to kill if you know what you're doing, but most people right now don't.

Besides pre-ordering.


Well, you don't need a code after midnight


This is brand new information.

Thanks.

That... sounds like you're being really, agressively sarcastic.

Now, that sounds like you're projecting your own insecurities when all I'm saying is thanks.

I genuinely didn't know there was an open beta.

Never saying thanks to anyone ever again.

Ever.

Again.

Thanks for that.

Played a few games of this earlier and absolutely loved it. Teleported into the back of the enemy team as Reaper and got a quad kill with my ulti which was hilarious.

What's the best way of dealing with him? I've not played enough to really know how to counter most of the stronger characters. I've been swapping to Roadhog and hooking Bastion if he's set up in a strong position which seems to be pretty successful. Also finding it quite hard to deal with the engi guy's turrets.

Two rockets from Pharah is enough to kill most of the time, so if you can get the drop on him (which is easier because you can fly) you're good. If you can't, just bring a Reinhardt and shoot from the safety of his cover

Bastion's turret doesn't have much range so two fully charged shots from Widowmaker also works well.

I had to queue to get onto Battle.net on PC about twenty minutes ago. Not the game. Battle.net.

So I'm assuming it's getting hammered right now.
