Putting the 'weak' ultimate aside that version of Symmetra seems insanely broken. She sounds like this weird 'bastard child' of Zarya/Moira, Pharah/Junkrat and Reaper rolled into one

Pharah Rockets deal ~ 120 damage for direct impacts (granted they have no charge time) and 'firing turrets' like rockets just seems like a modified concussion blast.

4 seconds to max out the beam and effectively 1hko squishies with what will seemingly be a moira style tentacle laser just seems really unbalanced. Maybe you won't be able to just 'lock-on' to a Tracer/Genji and melt them, but you're not really going to care if you get into a team fight and you can just wave around what is now this insanely lethal laser sword.

Her ultimately ability (as fun as a 5000 hp Mei Wall is) just sounds like it would be a Widowmaker shield unless it has some sort of timer on it. The shield prevents being 'counter-sniped', placing it way back means many heroes will suffer 'damage drop off' if they try to attack the shield (so it'd stay up even longer). Even if your entire team tried to focus fire down the shield, chipping away at 5000 hp with minimum damage whilst getting sniped freely by a Widowmaker does not sound like fun.
