tonight i played against a team with a lvl 61 in it xD. Basically i was the lowest one when it came to the lvl (there were some lvl 45+, 35+ etc).

I still won both games (2 games actually) and had most kills and damages xD

How can you be lvl 61 wtf it's beyond me, even cooller is lvl 48. You have to play the game 24/7 to reach such a lvl, must feel like some WoW-nerdz :D

a large majority i've no doubt do but there are still thousands of us who luckily work from home on our own hours, self-employed so 6-7 hours a day of gaming can actually pass by you quite quickly...

I was up until 4am the other night playing it and it didn't even feel late... it's a good sign of having a fun time.

lol, i love having fun, i just try to manage my time well, which means i don't personally play a game that has zero positive impact on my life until 4am. that's my personal decision, so i guess i was wrong to impose my personal views/values on harosh in saying that he was wasting his time. in my view, i'd be wasting my time playing that much.

and getting back to the having fun thing, i definitely love having fun, that's why i go rock climbing, walk to the farmers market and make dinners with my wife, ride my motorcycle along the river, and spend a lot of time with family. all of those things would be a lot more difficult for me if i hardly slept the night before because i was up playing QL until 4am.

sorry i hit a sensitive spot in your life, dude, just i view QL as generally a bad use of time, despite the fact that i still enjoy playing it and have fun doing so.

nws :) it was a Thursday night and I had nothing much planned for the Friday morning which was fortunate as I hadn't planned on playing overwatch until 4am - it just kind of happened :)

and yes :) i was terrible the day after as i'd been drinking the hooch the night before too

you know i'll always picture you now as Tom Cruise riding his bike like in Top Gun only not on an air strip but by a river :)

top #75 soldier76 EU but only cus I slummed it the 1st few days... now that I know the meta game a little better I am trying out new characters - junkrat is so funny - if you get frustrated with soldier76 try junkrat..... you'll be in a good mood in no time

By Earth Heartlesss  - Reply to #26
yeah could be that :)

and considering that i don't have enough experience yet about when to push and get maximum ammount of kills, i mean, sometimes i know when to push and get the kills, but i still fail hard at times. So that's why i'm playing more defensively, i try to not get to close to the opponents etc.
I still have games where i have 25+ kills tho, but it's like 30-40% of my games, at best. So like i said i still have room to improve this part of my gameplay with soldier76, maybe (and i insist on this word, maybe :D) one day i'll be able to reach 25:7 or something, if i keep playing this game :)

without any stats i can guarantee you that there are millions of people playing it already. It got massively promoted by blizzard, blizzard has more than enough money to push this game at the top. And it has some MOBA elements in it, which is like giving instant 80% popularity boost :)

sometimes i'm playing at 5-6:00 AM and there's still a lot of people to play with/against.

Looks like one now has a third option, if one wants to get into a 3D-shooter that has a healthy population (the other two being CS and TF2).

Of the three, I'd definitely go with OW, even though I have not played it yet. Looks like more action than the two other games.

You don't have to wait with respawning before some round ends, right?
You basically are back in the game nearly instantly, correct?

yep, noobs are usually bad with genji, but people like cooller etc which know how to play it properly clearly shown that the character is op.


soldier76 in comparison is a quite easy character to use, especially if you're coming from quake and you're mg/lg heavy, also call of duty players usually are instant good with soldier76.
But even if you master this hero it doesn't become op. It's a strong hero no doubt about that, but still balanced compared to most others characters.

Boring to watch, boring to play solo.

Fun to play as a full team. If you enjoy the team play aspects of games, as in; coordinating attacks/defense with team, timing ultimates together, coming up with strategies with the team and timing stuff together; then you will likely enjoy overwatch if you have 5 other good players with you.

I've been having fun playing it with some old quake players but pretty much bored of playing most heros after 1-2 hours game time as them in solo.
