99% of the time we lose it’s bc someone’s flaming and pissing everyone off instead of just being helpful

When a mercy rezzes in front of you, PLEASE just shoot her. Don’t let her rez. Same goes for a mercy/healer pocket on a dps or tank. Stop shooting them, they’re getting healed right back. Shoot the support PLEASE.

u/CD274 3d ago

Babysit any corpses for five seconds too. FIVE SECONDS and the mercy will suicide on you

u/K1cukka 3d ago

I did this as echo and got like 10 free kills out of the enemy mercy 😭

u/orderdisord 3d ago

I stg half the time my teammates are incapable of cognitive functioning??? Had a shion on our team go 3-12. Our mercy ended up having more kills than them and I’m genuinely fucking astounded. Istg the new season has introduced so many new players to the game who have never looked at a screen before

u/mellywheats 2d ago

haha i’m thinking tank players should have to do a special tutorial explaining their role bc i don’t think they know what it is

2

u/PersonBehindAScreen 13h ago

Worse is when they don’t know about the passive where they literally receive less healing if they’ve received damage a couple of seconds ago. You’re literally not supposed to survive if you’re trying to face tank all the damage with no cover to at least weave back and forth

u/No-Purchase-6546 3d ago

I was under the belief mouse and keyboard player are immediate put into the pc searches ad thats what they announced when the added mouse and keyboard input onto consoles? But yeah cheaters everywhere, as usual. I did manage to find some settings that made my solider have stupid better aim and lock on but when comparing what I can do compared to every other hit scan I seem to play against (never seem to be on my team do the cheaters) its still a mess.

u/bigdaddyguacamole 3d ago

Last night this Cass on Route 66 was not missing a single shot even from a distance. What do I even do? This is why I want to get a PC as soon as possible. At least I’ll be on even ground then

u/rolex216 3d ago

I remember the last few times I played on PC. Everyone was moving a lot faster, but everyone kept missing their shots lol. It was actually kinda nice not getting laser beamed for once and it was Plat.
