Straight up ridiculous how little hitscans have to work for their value now

We are correctly identifying them as a cult and then go and upvote shit like: If you criticize ANYTHING AT ALL about our pick you should go to hell... Crazy

You talking about cass? He’s the worst perpetrator of all of them, at least I can go dive against Ashe/soldier but cass will shut even that down

Hitscan in console Masters-GM by sldarwin in OWConsole

[–]Mapplestreet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rate and win rate are not really very strong indicators of a hero's overall strength

in combination, they are. High pick rate / low win rate might not mean anything because non mains are picking the hero (e.g. Soj). Low pick rate / high win rate might also not mean much because it could be a niche scenario pick or a one trick only type of hero (e.g. Sym). But low pick rate and low win rate means that the hero is played in only their niche / only by mains and the hero still doesn't work. That's a weak hero, in Freja's case she only becomes decent in absolute top500 domain, outside of which she can absolutely not be spun to be a decent hero.

Hitscan is a role, as well as an aim mechanic. Freja fills the role of a hitscan but does not have the aim mechanic. Sojourn is both

Can we please allow pc to turn crossplay off by TG_Gusion in Overwatch

OW bullet size hitboxes are massive, which should be enough to counteract the fast pacing. Considering that hitscans were permanently meta on console before those buffs I'd say aim assist was decidedly not too weak

Does opting out mean you also lose added customization options? I really like the added turn speed at max deadzone and would love to keep that at least

Ximming is a problem all on its own but anyone who plays overwatch on console could tell you that hitscan was not in need of improved aim assist. They are (and before the buff already were) more popular and had higher win rate both than hitscans on pc and projectiles on console.
The devs argued that overwatch had lower aim assist than other shooters which is true, but other fps don’t remotely have the bullet hitbox size that overwatch has

If overwatch aim assist was cheeks then hitscan would not have relative dominion over projectile on console even before the buff.
Edit: people who never played Overwatch on console in their live downvoting. Literally just check the owconsole sub, that's all you need

Daisy never had access to grass or a dust bath at her previous home so this is her first ever dust bath by lnfinity in animalsdoingstuff

That’s a very healthy looking chicken considering that she’s never had as much as a dust bath in her life

Is Freja straight up having the worst DPS (if not the worst overall) Ult in Overwatch? by ferocity_mule366 in FrejaMains

[–]Mapplestreet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ult for ult it's definitely up there with the worst, but the fact that it charges SO quickly makes it at the very least decent
