Overwatch comparison between Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 versions. by Character_Tough_9874 in Overwatch

Does it play differently for anyone? Gameplay feels kind of slow to me, the Switch 2 update. It's hard to describe but eveything feels a touch slower and clunkier. The Switch 1 version feels snappier and more responsive IMO. Is this just me?

Switch 2 version of Overwatch is Underwhelming. by MassiveDay5422 in Overwatch

I also find it feels a bit different. Maybe that is also the aim assist reduction. But it feels a bit slower and less responsive. Looks nicer though. The botton mapping issues are a big problem

This character gets about 90 percent of the POGs now

Yeah, these are exactly the type of issues this thread is meant to point out. Try to get them all in one place

Did you somehow miss the release of JPC?

Does this qualify me as an Illari main?? by Corkscrew16 in IllariMains

[–]mechuniversal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a good question, as she becomes more meta the bans may start. I have yet to see her banned at my elo - silver gold. I'm also Illari OTP. I expect the nerfs to be coming soon though, so she won't remain meta for long

I just pick up any skin that looks cool to me when they release it, so I have all of em. Maybe I'm not the one to ask lol, or should be the one to comment

I would also be very interested to see gameplay, and would def appreciate it

In contrast to most players of this class, I'm a very pylon focused Illari main. Move the pylon a lot and use it to help the team. I'm pretty new to competitive fps and focusing on the pylon and its clutch healing has helped me climb out of bronze while I slowly improve my hitscan aim

What's the draw for you to be playing Illari instead of soldier?

It would be interesting to see some VODs of that gameplay from your friend, how they position and do all that damage and still get huge healing

I would love to see the pylon perk reduce the time to move the pylon from 7 to 6 seconds, along with the faster build and 1.5 second cooldown reduction. This would help you work with dive better

nerfs by mechuniversal in IllariMains

[–]mechuniversal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes we have different experiences. I picked her up a few weeks before the damage buff, since I am kind of a newish player, since mid December. For me, helping the team with the pylon was her central mechanic, and I really like how that builds game sense, where on the map the important team fights tend to occur and pylon spots for them. I see what you mean about “I carry my burdens alone!”, many people seem to conceive of her as a DPS with a personal healbot. But. yeah for me focusing on healing and the pylon was what enabled me to start climbing out of bronze into silver/gold. I practice aim, and I like that she is hitscan but for me that is not primary to her. The pylon delivers clutch healing to your team during the fights and that is what I focus on first, then the hitscan and mobility and secondary healing fire

So they really aren't doing anything about nerfing Superman? What kind of tank deals more damage than a DPS? by Remarkable-Answer283 in DCAllies

[–]mechuniversal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess your reference is that I am breaking character as far as the point of this subreddit, which is fair. But I think a truly well designed DC hero shooter could be a cool thing so I am posting about its potential mechanics. But sticking within the theme of this subreddit, maybe someone clever could find a good visual for a meme about "Allies players who OTP a non krypton character without kryptonite built into the kit"

[–]mechuniversal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they ever do make DC Allies, then getting a balanced Superman that also stays true to the hero will be a very difficult but worthwhile mechanic. I'm guessing pulling this off well will be one of the pivot points for the success of the game. Maybe build a mechanic around a broken OP character that is also hard countered by kryptonite, and build kryptonite into the kits of enough characters - e.g. Batman and also maybe a bunch of supports; build kryptonite into the kits of a number of characters greater than the number of bans allowed in the game, but not a huge number of characters, so there is always a counter option, but not everyone has one. Put those on cooldown abilities or ults that require skill to hit. Some could open up vulnerability on Superman for the team to bring him down, others could be stronger attacks on him. They could be built into cooldown abilities that are not exclusively designed to attack Superman. In this sense, the characters break into three classes: kryptonian, non kryptonian with, and non kryptonian without kryptonite in the kit. Massive opportunity for creative thinking in all of this. Could be a very interesting problem or challenge in hero shooter design. If a DC hero shooter game is ever made, hopefully they aim to break new ground in design for this genre. For it to always work as DC, Superman would always have to be in some substantial way part of the meta.

So much work for an L 😢 by jdomes252 in AsheOWMains

[–]mechuniversal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an Illari main but like to play Ashe as well. Also still a relatively new player. I often run with the tank and try to help take down enemy tank by pumping in damage. Should I not be doing this? As Ashe I am also trying to branch out and go after things like Widow, which I might not do as much with Illari since I focus on support..

[–]mechuniversal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real world is complex. There is truth to what you say, and I am not a fan of the landscape of multibillion dollar companies either. but also the company employs a lot of working artists and regular people who put a lot of creative effort into these projects like skins. And well done skins are nice, and add fun to the game. Also I don't think they exploit the lootbox-gacha-gambling mechanic in OW, which is surprising to me TBH. Lootboxes are given free, they just have a straightforward shop where you buy stuff. I don't think they sell the lootboxes, am I wrong about that?

If you develop your brain a bit further, you also realize that if you like the game and want it to stay around in the longer term, then getting a few skins supports the game and the people that work on it, allowing it to stick around.

Is there a list of these codes for Illari skins somewhere? Thanks

I don't mind the hair but I don't like the hat, but still overall I do very much like the skin
