Here, have a random D.va pic.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Several friends of mine want me to buy it, so I'll be picking it up soon enough.

Zarya didn't really appeal to me at first. I only started using her when I was coming into a game late. But she's really grown on me and is pretty fun to play when the team is in need of a tank.

Shes really good. I hate how little I see people use her. Say someone is spaming with a Bastion. One of your team members is Tracer and rushes his turret mode. Combo Zarya's shield abilites. As Tracer is going around Bastion, and taking damage. Activate friend bubble a little late. The bullets will half charge your gun. At the same time. You're also going into the line of fire, partially. With both shields being hit. The gun will go to full power. Then double team, and blow him up.

What I usually do is if I have Mercy with me. I'll make her be bait. The enemy will start trying to shoot her down. I'll activate friend bubble and then at the same time she switches to attack boost. Dead.

Huh, I didn't realise getting your shields hit charged the gun as well, I thought it was all tied to how much damage you were doing.

I need to be more observant I guess

If anyone here plays on xbox, fell free to add me. GT is Arch Adonias. I mean you know.....unless you suck. Holy fuck are there are a lot of terrible players on this game. Like people that don't seem like they could hit water falling out of a boat. I never understand why people play games they're so terrible at. It can't be very fun getting shit on.

Anyway, looking forward to competitive, and hopefully they can get console cross play on this game too at some point. That would be aces.

It's called learning. :P

I used to be terrible at the first Age of Empires where I would get beaten by even an easy computer.
A few years later I was ranked in the top 150 on Zone.com in the late 90's.

All games have little nuances you slowly pick up on and improve your skill with over time.

I wish this next content update would hurry up. Need more maps and game modes. ANYTHING.

I would agree with you if it weren't for the fact that so many of these terrible players have days worth of playtime. I mean if you're around level 100 and still suck, maybe this game ain't for you.

 

I could do with more maps, but I'll just be happy to get competitive mode and a patch with some character balancing for now.

I try to branch out to other heroes, but I'm really stuck on D. Va right now. I cleared 44 eliminations earlier with an over 4:1 KD ratio using her. Though, Soldier 76 isn't bad for a small break. He's a little too easy to use, and since I got the trophies for his ultimate and helix missile abilities in a single match, I kind of feel done with him.

Definitely the most fun iv had in a FPS game since Halo 5. Loving it. Playing it on PC.

Had a game last night where the play of the game was Mercy reviving one person.

Yeah. One of the older patches must of allowed Mercy's revive to finally count towards the POTG kill aspect easier. Because it happens more often.
