It takes too little skill to rack in kills so easily.

The throw distance on concussion mine (all things considered) is tiny. Squishie heroes (200hp or less) have no business being that close to a Junkrat on their own. He even drops bombs upon his death, reinforcing the fact you shouldn't hang around in melee range.

Junkrat is not a front-line hero, nor someone who makes his way behind enemy lines.

I mean you say that but he does it anyways in countless games.

If a Junkrat is able to run around on the front lines unopposed they deserve every kill that they manage to get. It's no different to Symmetra being able to run around melting people with an auto-targeting weapon unchallenged.

I cant really see how its a change worth fussing over, given that junkrat usually activates it from a safe place well back from the action anyway. It just makes it a tiny fraction more viable in clutch situations now.

Spectacular_Insanity · 2016-09-29, 00:49

Not to mention he still can't move while he's casting his ultimate. He's a sitting duck to any flanking hero after he activates his ultimate.

Last Sinner · 2016-09-29, 12:10

So,...anyone know why people logging on tonight got 11 loot boxes for free?

There's this reddit thread saying it was meant to be compensation for SEA regions affected by hackers, but it leaked to other regions by accident?

I actually got those 11 boxes. Daredevil 76, Davi Symmetra, legendary currency, 3 emotes and a couple of epic currencies. Used the overall 1k windfall of currency to get the legendary D.va emote.

Well....that was quite a pleasant surprise....always astounds me how I have way more RNG luck with Overwatch loot crates than any other games.

Jeff talks about some developer updates for upcoming changes/additions.

Tokkan · 2016-10-05, 14:15

So two new heroes being worked on, one is coming sooner rather than later while the other probably won't be here until next year. Okay, sounds good.

Stark700 · 2016-10-06, 06:17

Halloween skins to come soon

Oh god, it's gona be the summer games shitstorm all over again.

MeoTwister5 · 2016-10-06, 09:25

I really do hope they do some reworking on Symmetra. She's so extremely situational that if the opposing team know's the opponent has one and adjusts properly she's almosr rendered useless.

Drake · 2016-10-06, 12:05

Ugh I didn't even get a single summer games skin, just stupid spray paints. I hope I have more luck this time round =/

It does highlight just how 'entitled' some people think they are though, putting aside how pointless it the discussion is interesting (if only to glimpse into the mind of others).

Tokkan · 2016-10-11, 12:40

Halloween cosmetics can be purchased with coins, but with a catch, they cost 3 times the amount of coins that non-event items do (Halloween legendaries cost 3000 coins instead of 1000).

A co-op scenario like this is a welcome addition; now, what they should do is have others available year-round; given the setting, they wouldn't be hard to justify in-universe. I would also posit that they could be venues for indirect competition in the form of optional score- and time-attack modes.

Great here comes more Yaoi with Junkrat and Roadhog. XD

The Mercy fan-work should be enough to offset it though, right?

Opened the free Halloween crate they gave us and opened up Mercy's Witch costume. I'm pretty happy, but I rarely play Mercy :x
