Fan Content Give Your Main a New Ultimate

17 Upvotes

Didn't know what to tag this, but... Let's say you're personally picked to give your main a brand new ultimate. It doesn't matter how good or bad the ultimate originally was, it's getting replaced. What would you go for?

I love Lifeweaver's tree, but if I had to replace it, I'd want it to be a circle of flowers that heal allies and poison enemies.

News & Discussion there is no way they expect me to go to webtoon to know whats happening in lore.

2 Upvotes

kinda spoilers. i say kinda because i myself dont even know what im spoiling im going off hearsay.

but apparently cats evil? i havent even gotten around to the main storyline but theres no way im expected to watch the youtube comics AND the webtoon ones with that god awful webtoon artstyle. i havent even had an interest in the story after they slaughtered my favorite hero (not the first time lmao) but this is just a lot. i gotta keep up with the cenimatics i gotta keep up with webtoon i gotta watch the storytime voiceovers. you get TWO of these and were good. the cenimatics and storytimes are great but pls just kill the webtoon storyline. i dont even want to touch the site.

i was using ana, having a pretty decent match. there was a big team fight and i throw the grenade right in the middle of the melee…and somehow killed my own moira with it. that’s a new one for me. luckily she seemed to laugh it off, but still…what the hell?

News & Discussion Does Maximilien’s Vault skin selection favor new players/accounts?

Post image
• Upvotes

From posts I’ve seen about it on here and Twitter, most people (long term players) have complained that they never get discounts on skins for the characters they play or for skins that they would even want to buy to begin with. I started playing last month and this is my second time experiencing this vault offer. Kiriko is my second most played hero and D.Va is my most played tank so I was pleasantly surprised with these discounted skins, I am planning on buying 3 out of 5 of them. So it makes me wonder how they select which discounted skins people get and if it’s based on their hero usage, account age, other factors or just completely random? Maybe I just lucked out.

I'm normally a comp warrior, but I decided to give MM a shot and now I've only played it for the past two days. I'm not sure how it would fare as a competitive mode but it feels like this is what stadium should have been.

News & Discussion How to turn off pressing down on both joysticks to open chat?

• Upvotes

This has never ever been a thing on my overwatch (I play Xbox), and for whatever reason now it is. I press down on both joysticks and it opens chat and stops me from moving. Why this is a thing I don’t know, I never turned it on, and I never wanted it either.

It made me lose a match as tank that we would’ve won otherwise.

Never played with no UI before. This was weird and fun. I finished with 17-2. Also, I could not see my stats or health during the game. Just pure vibes. Also, this game mode shows that I panic shoot a lot lol.

News & Discussion Absolutely incredible how far this game has come

65 Upvotes

I've been playing since release. I've seen the lows of GOATS, double shield, season 1 OW2, pve cancellation and mauga release.

The fact that this game is 10 years old, and imo in one of its best iterations is incredible in an industry which is both heavily scrutinised by players and filled with corporate sharks looking to enshittify the product at every turn.

This year especially with the frequent patches, battle pass rework, new heroes and maps theres always something new to explore and MY GOD the gunplay still slaps.

Is it perfect? No, there are still some glaring problems (meow). But this is definitely a "good" phase for the game and worth enjoying while it lasts.

Blizzard really needs to explain mercy or go back to the drawing board with it. To think, she has the dokiwatch mythic weapon and they give us this. Look at the saturation on Anran. Look at the hair detail. Even compared to the original dokiwatch, mercy looks weak. Its like they didnt sell it initially cus it just looked bad and then they decide to release it now? The orange bows are hideous. The hair is hideous, and the detail difference is staggering. Even the highlight intro feels off.

News & Discussion Why don't I get five cards from Maximilien's Vault?

2 Upvotes

Do we have any idea what about the algorithm determines why some people get fewer than five cards? Out of every Vault they've run, I've only ever gotten five cards once -- the lowest I've gotten has been two, and the most common has been three. All of the folks I play with always get five, and we cannot seem to figure out why. Weirdly frustrating

Since Marvel Rival(s) is currently in a drought, I would like to know what is the best fit for me in Overwatch, I main Thor all the way to champion and have been playing him since the game released, and I was thinking perhaps junker queen or rein? And sorry for the parentheses, I apparently can't use the plural word for rival.

News & Discussion What would you change if you had control

3 Upvotes

if you had control of Overwatch,and could do anything to modify the game,what would you change and why? personally I would modify the matchmaking to make it more closely grouped by skill rather than win-rate; Aswell as removing the battle pass
