[Gaming] Overwatch (#boycottblizz)

We did eventually get our shit together tonight though.
Well, you did have me on the team by that point to focus on tanking it up. "brow waggle" :cool:

That was a hell of a finish.
It cuts off before I make the comment, but I was joking around that we totally broke their spirit in the previous game. The game before that video was us as defense on Anubis versus the same guys, and the enemy team took the first point pretty quickly. On the second point they did a huge push and it looked like we were going to lose, as most of us were dead and all six of them were on the point.

Thankfully, we had a wonderful Symmetra teleporter hiding in the little room behind the point. I remember with only a tiny bit of cap gauge left, going through that portal, Earthshattering the whole team, and charging the Reinhardt, killing him and the Mercy that was also in my path. We slaughtered them and regrouped. They never pulled off a push that organized again, and then the next game you see in the video above in which we switch sides and basically wash over them. I actually felt kind of bad.

Here's Soldier 76's-eye-view, or I guess visor, or whatever, of that stomping we handed out in Anubis last night.

76 being the "Team Dad," the meta has started, perhaps predictably, to start featuring Mercy as "Team Mom."









Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys.






"when ur teammates abandon u so u have to defend the point urself"

"when u actually kill ppl with ur tic-tac gun"

So fucking true.
 
Watching my wife play as Mei is hilarious. There are some really unforunate times for the other team that she's put up ice walls, like Junkrat's rip tire going steering off just as it was about to explode, or Reinhardt being trapped in a hallway.
 






Also, I have no idea why this made me laugh so fucking much. I was literally rolling on the floor.






Actually, I think all the ones that remind me our favorite edgelord is Hispanic make me roll, am I a bad person?

 
The idea that Reaper's mom throws infinite flip-flops.
WHAPWHAPWHAPWHAP while yelling at him "¡Tonto! ¡Tonto! ¡Tonto!"
Ahahahaahahahaaaahaaaa!

So here's a question: Does healing stack? If you stand in a biotic field while you have a Mercy on you, do you heal twice as fast?

It stacks, but only from different sources. You can't have say six unkillable Lucios, but if you have say a Zenyatta with an orb on a Roadhog, and then a Mercy comes up to heal the Roadhog, the healing will stack up for large health gains.

So, watch a Halforums Overwatch video and die of alcoholic poisoning.

It's a drinking game, not a not-drinking game.

But no, it's meant to be played while playing, not while watching the videos :p The videos condense these things down to make them look like they happen a lot more than they do.
