Overwatch

So Doomfist is live on the PTR and looks cray.

Yep, he looks amazing! Part of me is almost glad he's not voiced by Terry Crews so he's not seen as le funny meme man, and I'm glad his abilities seem suitably devastating.

He looks so good and SummerGames is meant to be coming back and lot of Reaper stuff.

He is the third nipple

Jeff Kaplan: "Two nipples?! Obscene. Hide one. Much better, family friendly."

Just flicking through God Is A Geek when I saw the Doomfist story and a picture of him: isn't that a Mario power-up on/as his left shoulder?!

Looks a wee bit like a Super Acorn, no?

Blizzard bringing the feels again and have you guys see the Mercy update

It's the Halloween event on Tuesday! Who is everyone hoping will get new skins? I'm hoping D.Va will get one, and I kind of hope Zen gets a better one as his Halloween skin from last year wasn't that interesting

I need my Mercy Witch Skin still.

Hopefully they'll do what they did with the Summer event and have last years skins really cheap to buy!

That would be sweet.

Reaper's getting his skin and that's all that matters.

But I do think Zarya needs a good skin too, so her as well.

What a day yesterday,

New character Moira who I really like the look off, seeing I play Mercy as my main but would like a different healer
New Map which looks awesome
New skins which will be alongside the map and seems they'll be in the bases loot boxes as well but also slightly annoying as I just want Nova skin for Widow.
New animated short which was top notch like always

This has made me excited for Overwatch again but a little disappointed we didn't get any new modes announced as we've said are selves that mystery hero is getting a bit boring and ranked is ranked.

Just to add UK lost in the World Cup after going unbeaten in qualifying and where tipped for big things, this sounds awfully familiar.

Moira looks great but I don't like the name. It's an old lady name.
That animated short was incredible, I really like rein's story so it's nice to see it get some animated love.
When it comes to ranked I usually don't do much more than my placement matches and instead spend most of my time in arcade, so it would be nice to get a new mode, I can't come up with any good ideas at the moment though. Maybe instead of mystery heroes, mystery abilities where you pick a fighter but their abilities are mixed up with other fighter's abilities? Or maybe go the whole hog and randomise the animations too.

The guys the other night was saying about a standard brawl in arcade like you've got in Quick Play but slightly more competitive.

Yes Brigitte is coming and here is gameplay

Aye, I'm down for a session or two once she officially launches. She doesn't look like my cup of tea but I said I'd hop back in for a bit when the next character launches. A tank/support hybrid seems pretty broken on paper but thankfully her damage outputs seems reasonably low.

I really like the look of her as someone that plays Moira, Mercy and Mei as my mains that I can see Brigitte falling in line with those on how I'd use her.

I've watched some more PTR but hard to judge when everyone is using her, what she's like. I don'y know if they will but I'd like to see a friendly sometime during the OWL and the teams use her properly.

Who's ready for Tuesday?

This Tuesday? Nice. Yep, I'll be down for some games then.

Got 5 games in last night where I got the play of the game in my first game with Brigitte with my excellent use of rally. I really like her but from the 5 games in quick play, you will need another decent healer unless you're using hog, solider etc who can self-heal.

The Overwatch Team have just announced a breast cancer charity skin for Mercy, it's a great looking skin and for a great course with 100% of the money going to the charity.

They've also got real T-shirts and a charity twitch stream to come which if you watch y'all get some sprays.

If you look back at this thread or elsewhere this is a game I thought would be a great Switch port and now it's confirmed.

Shame Switch stuff seems to be just gyro controls, which is cool but Nintendo skins would be cooler.

I may still triple dip.

I haven't played this in ages, hell had a different laptop since I last played, so I'll probably get it on switch and give it another go, hopefully remember who I mained
