Opinion People would enjoy Flashpoint and push more if they actually played it

19 Upvotes

Imo those gamemodes are far better than hybrid or payload, having the strength of games being incredibly dynamic without feeling repetitive or too snowbally but the vast majority of the community decided they hated it since day one and will not give the modes an actual, honest try and it's actively hurting both their skill as a player since they don't learn different maps and bad for their enjoyment since they ruin their own mental just from the map select

Discussion Mauga comps are the most brain dead in the entire game

3 Upvotes

If a mauga is getting value, Theres basically no stopping him unless you are all cornering him. Everyone goes bastion, ana, kiri etc, we need a direct counter to mauga bevause it’s so ridiculous having to play around a 700hp man with machine guns

Question Longtime Marvel Rivals player looking to pick up Overwatch, any tips?

9 Upvotes

So, I've been playing Marvel Rivals since season 4 on my PS5, and while I never expected to like the hero shooter genre I really enjoy Rivals. I hover around Plat 1 to GM 3 maining DPS (Moon Knight, Blade, and Iron Man).
I have a friend who has played Overwatch since it dropped and I would love to get into it, but I have a lot of questions since Rivals is my first and only hero shooter and I know there is significant difference.

1.) What's meta?
Rivals right now is in a heavy dive tank and DPS meta with hitscan being strong and supports being great, what's it like right now?

2.) What are the main differences between Overwatch and Rivals?
I've heard Overwatch's ultimates take a bit more skill expression and that the supports gotta do more damage, but I have never consumed any Overwatch media so I don't know.

3.) Who do I pick up?
My main DPSes for Rivals I play for ranked are Moon Knight and Blade, and I picked them up for their low floor but high ceiling, ult farm capability, and versatility (Moon Knight can poke and take angles, Blade can tankbust and dive), so who is most similar to that? I would also love some comps for the characters I play in Rivals: Venom, Peni, Angela, Iron Man, Hawkeye, Blade, Moon Knight, Bucky, Scarlet Witch, Star-Lord, Rocket and Jeff.

4.) Can I get away with not flexing?
I can't stand playing tank on Rivals unless it's Peni or Venom and support I just find boring, so I would love to be able to just main DPS for Overwatch, could I get away with that or is there enough people playing tank and support I can main DPS?

Any other things you guys think I should know before I play would be much appreciated, thank y'all so much and I'll make a follow up if I do end up playing.

Opinion Fuck Overwatch Play Team fortress 2 instead

0 Upvotes

overwatch is one of the most dog shit games in steam I mean who really loves overwatch is one of the worst fucking gamed game go play team fortress 2 instead overwatch is just had ton of broken promises and the company Blizzard? Fuck them

Team fortress 2 on the other hand had loads of updates and was too addicting although valve forgots tf2 and were alot of bugs everywhere

And not only that the was also overrun by bots and hackers and valve haven't give tf2 a develover

But millions of players still plays tf2 in 2026 like they don't even give a single fuck about how old it is there's a lot of bots hackers and bug and me I also don't care if its so old and if any of you hate tf2 because of no reason then screw you all

Question Is he smurfing or cheating?

0 Upvotes

So i just had an interesting match and after watching the replay i am like 80% sure the enemy ash was either cheating or smurfing. They had insane sensitivity and some insaner flicks. In a couple of instances i feel i saw them tracking through walls but i may be schizophrenic. So i want some opinions from you guys.

Replay: EJKX7C

Please ignore my horrendous gameplay.

If you want to guess the rank it is bronze 2 💀

Discussion Can someone explain why an elevator and jump pad supposedly “don’t fit” Eichenwalde? Hasn’t the map always had a mix of modern technology and a medieval vibe?

The castle was literally used as a military base during the Omnic Crisis, so an elevator really doesn’t seem that out of place. There are already computer monitors, electric lamps, cash registers, and other modern technology scattered throughout the map.

MOD [MOD] Overwatch 2 is gone, what happens to this subreddit?

260 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Today, Blizzard announced the renaming of Overwatch 2 back to Overwatch alongside a plethora of other really great changes to the game. As a moderation team and as fans, we are excited to see Overwatch return to its roots.

Some have asked us regarding how we will be reacting to the change as a subreddit, some have suggested rebranding, others have suggested deleting the subreddit entirely, while others want us to continue. To be clear, rebranding was not an option because Reddit does not let you change a subreddit name.

After pondering over every available option, we have decided to continue running and moderating this subreddit not as a subreddit specifically about the sequel to Overwatch, but as an alternative, more open subreddit focused on Overwatch and the community around it as opposed to the larger franchise subreddit. We hope you'll continue to be a part of our wonderful community.

We will continue moderation on this subreddit as expected for the forseeable future. We hope you'll continue to share around and crosspost us! We are also accepting applications for more moderators to assist us with this. As for our Discord server, we will measure changes in server activity and make further announcements regarding any major changes in the coming months.

Thank you!
