Overwatch B.Net Thread

Sombra has finally been revealed. She should be playable on the PTR next week. Likely be on the main servers a week or two after that.

I love Sombra, just because she can destroy a Reinhardt.

I however fuck ing hate that they are getting rid of shit comps in quick play. The best Overwatch times have been my friends and I doing shit comps and having them somehow work. Like our all Mei, or Hanzo, or our classic all 76 Hollywood shit comp and winning. I think what really annoys me about the whole situation is you can still have a Widow, Hanzo and Ana on a team which 98% of teams I play as with Widow and Hanzo lose because one of the two can't snipe worth of crap.

I know it's still available in Arcade Mode but you can only get 3 boxes a week.

 
I'm playing Overwatch for a little while trying to get some of these skins. I'm really rusty, and don't really play often anymore (got bored of the game), but i'm going to be playing for a bit. You can message me on BNet as I likely wont be playing, but may be around.

 
Finished my placement matches for Season 3. 5 Wins, 23 medals (I was also healer for at least 3-4 of those games) and I only got rank 1125. I want to know how fuck ing good you need to be to place in silver or higher.

I mean I am not an amazing player but still. Not really complaining because I am not an avid player of the competitive but just curious.

Did not see a general Overwatch thread, but had a question. I was playing Competitive and got kicked. Error message said something along the lines of losing connection to server. Try to reenter the game itself and it hangs on "Entering game". I quit out of the game via xbox button. Reload the game and I see that I have been suspended for 25 mins.

Does this happen everything you get kicked out and try to rejoin? I'm pretty sure it was not my internet going down since I was in a party chat and could still hear my teammates. Hopefully this is just a fluke.

--edit--

Whoops thought this was the xbox one and 360 thread and it seems like there isn't one. Sorry if this is in the wrong thread.

If I remember correctly, Competitive has penalties if you're the first to leave the game you're in whether it's on purpose or an accidental disconnect. You can rejoin the match, but the rejoin timer is fairly short (Not actually sure how long it is) so you can revert any penalty done against your account. If you're having connection issues (whether it be the Xbox servers, blizzards servers or your side), then it's recommended you don't play competitive during that time because it can eventually lead to a permanent seasonal ban that won't be lifted until the next season starts.

It kind of sucks and the rejoin timer should probably be a little bit longer, but without it there would be a bunch more people leaving competitive games if they're losing.

Thanks for the reply. Found out it was router and or modem. Apparently, the bad weather (rain) was not playing well with my connection which was not an issue in the past.

This coming Monday, 01/04/17, has a new event for Overwatch regarding Chinese New Year

There is another short intro with D.Va also here

Yeah, I had known about it a little bit before you posted. I usually post up-to-date info in the Japanese Niche Deals Thread and then whenever it drops, I post a small excerpt here in case anybody doesn't check that.





Overwatch went live earlier with the [customspoiler="Year of the Rooster"]

Also here's a link to the new skins. Ana's skin is actually pretty scary. Good luck with your loot box drops.

Bonus Mei VA Video (Semi-Event Related)

New patch went live as well. So Ana's grenade got a slight nerf with healing and D.Va now has 400 HP / 200 Armor as opposed to 400 Armor / 200 HP. I've also noticed that you can equip up to four sprays now at least on PC.

Yea you can equip 4: sprays, voice lines, and emotes now. Pretty clunky how it is on the console.

The only 2 skins I really want is the Zen and Winston ones. I got the Mercy one which is aight.

 
Kinda shitty that you can't buy LE skins this patch but super excited about competitive Lucioball :)
