News & Discussion After watching FNAF2, I thought it could be fun if they did a FNAF x Overwatch Collab

Post image
510 Upvotes

I just watched the 2nd FNAF movie and thought it'd could be fun if they had a collab with Overwatch. I'm not really a FNAF fan (pretty much only watched the movies and some of the Gametheory videos), but I do like the animatronics (they're really awesome in the movies).

For some reason I spent way to much time photoshoping my ideas badly for fun (as I can't really draw).

If they're not obvious, it's Reinhardt as Freddy, Roadhog as Foxy, Orisa as Chica and Junker Queen as Bonnie. I made them all as tanks as the animatronics in the movie just gave a very heavy feeling.

I have to pad the body of this post with something so it isn’t automatically removed. Made in Procreate, motivated by how insanely beautiful she is. I’m contemplating doing more based on other heroes, but I’m having a hard time deciding who’s next.

Highlight My 16 yo daughter just hit GM 💙

Post image
5.5k Upvotes

My daughter skipped school today to go to the gym with me and play video games all day and I couldn’t be more proud of her 😅

We’ve been playing together since she was 7, she ranked platinum right away and stayed there for years.

A few years ago she got to diamond and I stayed in platinum.

She started playing on pc and I stayed on Xbox.

She’s been master on pc for about a year, so I went on a grind to try to rank up so I could play with her again.

I was so pumped today because I finally hit DIAMOND and I was excited to play comp with her again, then I come upstairs to tell her and I see she’s 1 win away from GM.

Well she won and now we can’t play together once again, but I’m super proud of her 🎉

(So she’s currently GM on Xbox and Master 2 on PC)

News & Discussion How do you guys not feel bitter/frustrated about your heroes getting worse quality skins (or barely/no skins) than others?

Post image
173 Upvotes

I can't help but feel frustrated when I see the kinds of skins some heroes gets and quality/effort the developers put into them while the rest get the content that has visibly less care put into it

For example how I waited so long for Soldier76 to get a mythic skin and they completely half-assed it with visibly less effort in it than other even recent mythics such as less details/colors in armor, less special effects/barely visible base VFX, less and boring unique voicelines and so on.

Or his Street Fighter skin for example on the picture that's mostly a recolor of his default skin while others got great looking skins. Or how they tend to keep him in the more default themes with only a few exceptions SINCE OW2 started like Class President 76, Charming76 or Heist76.

Or another hero I like Torbjorn who doesnt even get skins. Or Winston who also when rarely gets something it's usually worse than others'.

And it's not even about the popularity and how much money a hero brings in, because from my examples both Soldier76 and Winston are popular and among the most recognized faces of Overwatch

I shouldn't care about it, but can't help feeling this way when I see something one of the Blizzard/devs' favored heroes have and think why can't the hero I love have things like that?

News & Discussion Petiton to make Overwatch replace stadium with Halloween Mystery Madness.

Post image
773 Upvotes

I love the Roguelike elements of the perks it makes it so fun. Friends and I have been really enjoying the chaos 🤣
Compared to stadium I love the quickness of the rounds. the cards make it seem fairer. I also think the choice of 3 characters and not being able to lock in a role makes me play new heroes I love it.

Edit:

I making edit as this has been getting a lot more comments than I expected. I used to love stadium and creating new builds. It was a good alternative to comp and a more chill version. But ever since the announcement the queue times have tanked. In OCE the queue times are an hour or over (especially for support ) but I would queue all roles,but these queue times were even long even during peak times such as drives.

This post was never meant to be or intended to be a hating on stadium. I was just having a lil fun and more so meant if they going to remove stadium I think it be funny to put this as the replacement. I truly didn’t mean to offend anyone that likes stadium. My title was just being a lil silly.

Hey I saw the news on Ovetwatch Cavalry https://x.com/owcavalry/status/2111053474528157800?s=46 about the contest winners in China and I noticed that DVa skin pretty similar to a design I did back in 2015 and damn there’s no way that was just a casualty, it’s definitely a ripoff of my design 💀

What do you think?

Replay code if you are interested 8F1D9X

I played the Juno in this match.

Our mercy spend most of the match spinning in circles then left then came back, spun in more slow circles, and left again.

They missed a really great game. Our DPS did a great job using the space our Hog provided. And our hog put on a class on cycling his cooldowns using his breather.

I was basically a frantic flying squirrel who tried not to make too many mistakes( I made alot of mistakes). But thankfully my team pulled through in a rather convincing fashion.

I hope our mercy enjoyed the notification of the win.

News & Discussion I'm so tired of people typing and soft-throwing in competitive

• Upvotes

Last match my tank refused to push and just sat in one corner all game and bubbled his teammates while they sat in that corner and complained all match because I was playing Mercy.

Typing in chat complaining about lack of healing when they are getting healed. They are just being toxic and acting like a toddler because they don't have a pocket or a moira spraying her 24/7.

It's just so tiring to play competitive in this game. People would rather type and complain all game instead of making changes themsevles. Trying a different hero. Using more cover or finding health packs. Nah they just want to soft-throw all match and ruin the experience for the rest of their team.

Any combination of heroes can win. It's your mental that ruins your chance of climbing because you give up before you bother to make any changes and only demanding others make those changes for you. Thank you for reading.
