Ryuuga Wagatekiwo Kurau - The Overwatch Thread

I blame Blizzard. Like something about them just kills the minds of their players. That is my only explanation for WHAT THE FUCK IS EVEN UP WITH BATTLEGROUNDS IN WOW. YOU STUPID FUCKERS GET ON THE POINTS. CARRY THE FLAG. DEAL WITH THE NPCS. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

 

I'm going to literally rip my hair out I was matched with a five man group that literally did nothing but jump off the ledges for five minutes why do these people not value their time more than that

 

I must be getting lucky in QP - I've seen some "haha what do you mean there is a [point/payload], I just wanna kill people" fuckery, but I've never encountered anything as bad as that, or even as bad as 24/7 2fort (which is, imo, a very special hell.) What the fuck even.

 

Oh my god I just played one of the random Brawl matches in the Arcade, and it stuck me in the This Is Ilios Brawl

aka capture the point near the well. As a team of three Lucios and three Roadhogs.

One of the players ended up getting a card at the end for twenty two minutes on the objective time
we kept getting in stalemates
it was both hilarious and awful
like some kind of neverending circus
but in the end my team won >:D

 

The report function is your friend and loves you dearly.

 

Mei has already had a great deal of nappy naps.

 

I would like to inform you all that I just got the card for healing as Sombra. 4k on a team with no healers or tanks against a team with an Ana.

 

Fuck me running, Sombra is fucking great. I love her. She's got a lot of what's fun about Tracer to her, but the hack is just so fucking useful. Speaking of Tracers, holy shit, they can't do jack and squat when you hack them. Sneak round behind one harrasing your healer and hack her dumb ass and it's like boom, instakill. The hell's she gonna do about it, little Miss 150 hp + no mobility. D.vas, Hogs, Zaryas, and Genjis are great for hacking as well. You can nab Genjis when they're reflecting, D.vas when they've pulled out the DM, and Hogs who're healing, and bing bang boom, almost certain kill.

 

I like being able to throw the teleporter thing up on ledges and being like HELLO BASTION I HAVE COME TO END YOUR BULLSHIT. Or just toss it and be like I AM OUT. Or having tossed it and being like GOOD BYE I MUST GET MORE HEALTH.

 

Hacked small health packs spawn almost instantly. I wonder if setting up a Bastion on top of one might make for a good combo? Sombra works really well with healers and other characters people wanna focus down, because it gives you an opening to hack. And a Bastion slurping up health packs would give you so much ult charge... And an EMP would let Bas mow everyone down. I dunno, sounds like a good match to me.

 

Also! You know what's hilarious? A hacked Primal Rage Winston. Dude can't jump, he's just stuck swinging impotently in the middle of a room.

 

coelasquid is my hero (aka today's mgdmt is hilarious & relevant)

 

So this entire video is great but

SWEDEN

TORB!!! DRINKING!! LIKE THIS!!! WITH REIN THO

For the video from start to finish here:


(Sweden is 5)

 

oh wait
do other countries not do drinking songs before shots? oh dear
(doesn't really happen in bars, but at midsummer parties or dinners w drinking, definitely. sometimes you'll get books w the lyrics it's a good time OH HANG ON I HAVE A PSEUDO-PHONETIC TRANSCRIPTION OF THE MOST COMMON ONE so the international students can sing along check the attached picture
imagine them singing that
ur welcome)

also, for the record, akvavit is disgusting and there is a reason it is only drunk in shots
shudders

 

Yeah I think more Irish area bars in the US do drinking songs but it's rarely done here. I'd love it if it was though tbh.

 

US, and people sing when they're drunk here, but the closest we come to drinking songs is that whole genre of club hits that sound better when you're drunk.

That's fucking awesome tho, I love the idea of them singing together.

Edit: oh yeah, occasionally heavily Irish areas will have them, but mostly it's a thing that happens when you're trying to make it home from the bar, not before you drink ime.

 

So, I went and bought a PC copy, and things were going real smooth in the training area. Then I got into an actual game and ho boy my eyes hurt like hell. I don't get it, is it just sitting this close to the screen or something? Owww.

Turned the brightness down, and that helped a bunch.

 

The much closer experience might indeed be making you feel worse before you get used to it.

 

Check out this really cute animation.
