Overwatch, Information and Discussion Thread

What is Overwatch:

Overwatch is a teambased 6 v 6 multiplayer shooter, where you can pick heroes with all unique abilities.

They game has currently 4 main game modes:including a hybrid of assault and escort.

  • Assault: The attacking team is tasked with capturing two target points on the map, while the defending team must stop them.
  • Escort: The attacking team is tasked with escorting a payload to a certain delivery point before time runs out, while the defending team must stop them. The payload vehicle moves along a fixed track when any player on the attacking team is close to it.
  • Assault/Escort: The attacking team has to capture the payload and escort it to its destination, while the defending team tries to hold them back.
  • Control: Each team tries to capture and maintain a common control point until their capture percentage reaches 100%. This game mode is played in a best-of-three format.

What heroes do you like which one do you dislike?

Lets talk all about the game here in this thread lets hope we can help each other out with tips and tricks or by playing together.

The heroes I played the most in beta where surprisingly

Mercy, Soldier 79 and Zenyatta it surprised me how much I liked to play the straight forward healer Mercy.

I made this the [Official] thread. Thanks for starting thread with 3 days left from going live.

I'm stoked for this game and have been thinking about it since beta. I per-ordered for $40 and ready to go. Exciting enough to call in sick from work, but I won't.

This is my sleeper hit of the year. I cannot believe how polished this game is at its beta.

Easy to pick up and hard to master gameplay too.

And it runs ridiculously well. Other than the difference in resolution, her i3/760 rig at 1080p runs just the game just as smoothly as my i5/970 at 1440p. Gotta hand it to Blizzard, there games run well on a very wide range of hardware configs.

So I've taken to healing with Lucio to start. He's quite the power house giving speed and healing to group. I'm healing as much as damage is being dished out almost.

I do have a question, occasionally I see the orb being taken away from Zenyatta on the other team. Either Lucio keeps taking it away some how or it's being done by someone else on the team. Does anyone know who plays with Zenyatta know what's going on?

On side note: Game play is great and I'm not even on the new 'game ready' driver for my GPU that came out on release day either. I'm getting 70 FPS on Ultra FOV 103% at 3480x2160. Blizzard did a good job IMO.

Zenyatta has 2 orbs ORB OF DISCORD and ORB OF HARMONY one gives a 50% increased damage buff on the target and the other heals teammates.

http://overwatch.gamepedia.com/Zenyatta

the orbs comes back when the player dies or the orb gets switches or if the hero with the orb goes too far out of reach.
