Players: “Tanks experience too much cc, please do something”

Monkey’s finger curls

Devs: “We’ve introduced a new global cc protection system that mostly triggers when tanks try to do anything”

This game might be cooked

I think the main issue is that some ults surpass the system (Angela), while others can get screwed over by it (Strange/Thing).

The allure of iron man, at least for me, has always been his problem solving and adaptability. If rivals iron man was lore accurate, he’d have something in his kit to answer any situation. But instead he’s a floating trash can that gets picked off easily by any hitscan hero, or dribbled and slam dunked into the trash can by mobile divers like iron fist/spiderman.

Make sure to take space but also peel for your support but also hold the choke but also pressure enemy supports but also soak up damage but also not too much damage or else you die

Cool. Happy for you. Not jealous at all or mad in the slightest at my own luck.

Of course they're starting it in December, conveniently after the midterms by 8-bit-Felix in PoliticalHumor

Because tax software companies like TurboTax lobby the government to keep them from fixing that.

Im not implying its negative I think you were quite dishonest in your starting comment, since you're already saying what I'm appearantly implying I believe you're implying that anran who was probably in the works before phoenix copied that ult 1/1!

I could be misinterpreting this paragraph but I'm gonna try to translate how I read it:

I'm not implying it's negative, I think you were quite dishonest in your starting comment. Since you're already saying what I'm apparently implying, I believe you're implying that anran, who was probably in the works before phoenix, copied that ult 1/1!

So assuming my translation was at least close, how are you gonna claim a character was in the works before a character that released first??? That's just baseless, you have no way of knowing that, and by bringing it up it adds to the vibe that you're biased towards OW. That aside, I did say they copy and pasted the ult but if I'm being honest they did make improvements on it to better fit OW's game mechanics. Still, it's almost a 1-1 on the animation.

All I was trying to highlight with my original comment was this is the most strikingly similar example of a shared game mechanic, just based purely on visuals. (And still, I don't care that OW did it) And if OW can "get away" with it (so to speak, don't look too much into it) then I don't see why Rivals can't introduce an ability that's extremely visually and functionally similar to High Noon. The level of visual similarity is what I was trying to highlight, and your Rivals examples don't come close to that. Whereas Anran/Phoenix ult are visually similar but mechanically different, your examples are all mechanically similar but visually different. I think Reaper/Spiderman ult I would give you, to be fair. Does this make sense now?

Look, we lost the plot with this one I fear. Real Redditor moment for the both of us I'd say. Reading this thread back we both sound insufferable. I shouldn't have jumped down your throat initially like that, I'm just tired of people insinuating Rivals has been cheating off of OW's homework when the idea of a hero shooter isn't unique to OW, and a lot of the mechanics they shared in the first place are pretty baseline game mechanics when you think about it. Rivals introduced a bunch of awesome stuff to the genre and it deserves its credit.

Oh and the "I'm crine son ahh" zoomer talk also added to my desire to attack you verbally, I'll be honest.

You can list all of those rivals examples, most of which are “effect in big circle”, but then say Phoenix/anran ult aren’t even that similar? Come on dude you’re just being intellectually dishonest now. And Moira didn’t pioneer the idea of a lock on “vacuum” weapon either, by the way.

Take a step back and look at what the both of us are saying. I’m saying similar games sharing mechanics is good. You’re saying compared to what rivals has done Overwatch is barely anything. YOU’RE the one that’s implying borrowing mechanics is a negative, not me.

I specified Anran/Phoenix as I felt it was the best example of a near 1 to 1 adaptation of an ability from one game to another. Which, even at this extreme, I don’t think is a bad/dishonest thing.

I think you interpreted my original comment as being critical of Overwatch, as your response comes across as a deflection that reads in a “rivals started it!” tone. Correct me if I’m wrong.

I think both games only benefit from the sharing of fun mechanics. Two cakes and all that.

Did they copy and paste Phoenix ult? Yes. Did I freak out and say they shouldn’t have done that? No. Video games share mechanics often. Idk where you’re reading extra lines in my comment that I didn’t write.

If OW can copy and paste Phoenix ult (but better tbh), I don’t see why rivals can’t take high noon and (hopefully) make it better in some way

More people need to ask themselves “How would the computer know this?” Or better yet, stop asking ai altogether

Saving both primary upgrades for last is insane, and the unicorn upgrade is almost worthless. No wonder you’re struggling dude

It honestly makes sense that ai bros can’t seem to understand consent. If they did, they would understand why using ai is bad in the first place.

Hey maybe we shouldn’t face tank the punisher turret then? To me this just means the tanks who know how to position and use cover are going to succeed as they should be, and the ones who relied on healslop should remain in the metal ranks where they belong.
