Flash is pretty short range for the stun to go off. If you get flashed usually it is because you didn't see the McCree coming or you went around a blind corner. If you nerf his flash too much he suddenly can't deal with anyone getting in his face effectively which would hamstring him in what role he'd fill. At that point he'd just be a far, far inferior 76.

Having difficulties enjoying this game anymore. Can generally only play 1 or 2 games when I do get to play so I don't group ever for the most part and pugs literally make me want to murder someone. I'm sad.

That happened to me a few times in the beta. I'd just stop playing for a week and then suddenly the itch was back.

Ha I'll keep that in mind when I play with my friends, I always mess up my high noons I thought it would one shot people when it's locked on but seems to only do that to light armor characters.. roadhog and stuff wont get killed.

Tred if I'm ever on you can always join me for a game or two, I don't mind people dropping out
Thanks I'll keep that in mind.

Looking at my recent posts it's a bunch of whining. Been a trying week with the kid. ugh I need to make some good plays or something and post more positive stuff. :p

Had a funny moment last night I wish I would have recorded.

Some nub Bastion wouldn't get out of turret mode and somehow i ended up really close to him as Lucio. I kept a tight circle on him and just kept circling while he tried to kill me, it took forever but I finally downed him solo and just laughed as I skated off.

Damn when you open that loot box and you see that gold flying in the air. It's so exciting. I've never been one to care for cosmetics either. I use the basic card back in Hearthstone. But for some reason I'm really into it. Just got my 2nd Legendary Symmetra skin. She is my 2nd most played though so it's okay. Level 48 and I have: Firefighter Mei, Devi Symmetra, Architect Symmetra, Toa Roadhog, Jester Junkrat.

5 Legendary Skins, 4 Epic skins, 4 epic intros and 4 epic emotes and 12 rare skins. One of the legendary skins bought with coin. Seems pretty lucky I think? Some of the epic skins could easily be classified as legendary. Like Reinhardt's Bundeswehr and any Carbon Fiber. None of Widowmaker's Legendary skins show off her ass so I will never use them, because... wow, that ass.

Overwatch rage quitters will be handed a 75% EXP penalty on all future games
According to the game's community manager, once a player's games played vs games completed falls below the required threshold, a warning message will be sent.

Disconnects are calculated based on the player's 20 most recent games. Should the player continue to leave games after the warning is handed out, this will be deemed as rage quitting and a 75% EXP penalty will be applied on all future games.

It isn't a time-based penalty, so the player can expect it to be removed once the played vs completed percentage is above the threshold. This too is based on the 20 most recent played games.

Should a player disconnect or gets kicked due to inactivity, it will still be counted as if done intentionally.

Here's an explanation into who is considered a leaver and a stayer:

If you leave a game before the "Assemble Your Team" phase is over (i.e. before you enter your starting spawn rooms):
It won't count as a game played
You will not be considered a "leaver" in this scenario
If you leave a game after the match ends (i.e. after you see the VICTORY/DEFEAT screen):
It will count as a game played-and if your team won, it will count as a win
You will not be considered a "leaver" in this scenario
If you leave a game after the "Assemble Your Team" phase is over, but before the match ends:
It will count as a game played
You will be considered a "leaver" in this scenario

So instead of leavers we'll just have trolls sitting in the game... I'd rather they just leave. Unless there's already harsh mechanisms for sitting in spawn or generally trolling

Well I hope they do something for when you are dumped into a game with less then 10 seconds to go. I got dumped into a game the other day and was at the hero screen and Defeat came up and got a loss marked against me. What bullshit.

Had a dude in a PUG last night that would stand in the spawn and move his character ever so slightly to avoid the inactivity kick. He did it for 2 games before I left (first one i joined was halfway over).

Hit P and right click on their name and choose avoid player. Hopefully you won't get paired up with him again.

I don't remember the last game where I'm at work, and keep thinking about tonight when I'll be able to play.

That said, I finish work in 11 minutes, 40 minutes to get home, unknown amount of time to make dinner since i am not sure what I'll make tonight...then Overwatch.

Really working hard to keep players I see.

I'm with Oblio on this one, I'm no longer having fun, I'm just frustrated.

What about their random, shitty as disconnects in the middle of the game? Yesterday I got dropped from 10 games in a row about 4 mins after starting.

Willing to sacrifice a "what if" case for the sake of 99% of the problems being rage quitters
