| Actually, I do like playing support in this game. Never liked the Medic in TF2 very much, but both Mercy and Zenyatta are pretty fun. |
Spooks said: So played both the pc and console version. Console for me runs a wee bit better but obviously pc looks slightly better. The games fine, not amazing but ok might get a bit old fast will have to see. Some characters are a bit broken at moment. The cyborg raiden knock off for example. Still managed to get MVP and play of the match in my first game. Update: Now we're seeing plenty of teams of 2-3 of the ninja guy. Defo broken needs fixing. Ninja ain't OP. All that's happening is people are figuring out that he can deflect bullets back at people. The waves of Bastions got replaced by the waves of Genjis, because the Genjis came to reflect Bastion. Genji is outranged by basically everybody. Even Mei can take him down. The only thing he has going for him is deflect and better mobility. He can't even deflect everything. |

All im seeing is: Ninja stars Ninja stars Ninja stars Ninja stars Ultimate Ninja stars Ninja stars Ninja stars Ultimate been three games now winning team was made up of 3 - 4 ninja guys. Clearly everyones cottoned on to it. |

| Are you guys playing on console? Maybe the skill is all on PC or something. As Mei I shut down Reaper, Genji, AND Tracer. I don't think Mei is even supposed to shut Reaper down, but it's fairly easy. Genji can't handle Pharah or Junkrat (or Mei). A good Widowmaker can bait his reflect or catch him off guard, and a good Bastion can do the same. Tracer can't handle basically anything that dies in more than a second. Her teleports and rewinds are easy to read. Sure she'll have recovered all her health, but that doesn't make her any less squishy. Really the biggest pains imo are Pharah and Hanzo. A good Zenyatta is terrifying as well. I don't know if I'm terrifying as Mei, maybe just frustrating, as I'm freezing and blocking everyone, idk. I know the enemy team loves to target me first. |
| Apparently Genji can deflect Reinhardt's hammer. Which is funny. Anyways, McCree, Winston, Roadhog, Mei, and Lucio shit on Genji actually. McCree can kill him in an instant with a flashbang + right-click combo Winston and Mei's weapons are undeflectable and are people you DO NOT want to be close to (and Genji specializes in CQC) Roadhog can cheese him in an instant. And Lucio's can sonic blast Genji away from the team. I'm actually starting to like Lucio a lot now that I'm getting a feel for him. His wallriding needs more zess to it though. So far it's pretty useless besides shortcuts and all. Anybody know some good team comps? I know Bastion + Torbjorn + Reinhardt + Symettra is absolutely BEAST as a defensive strat. |
 |
| Just started playing it, gotta say I'm impressed with how good the game actually is. I might have to pre-order it. |
 |
| I only know some good 2 man combos. Lucio is great in a lot of cases for everyone, but I'd say mostly when combined with Symmetra. His passive healing and her regenerating shields are just a boon to everyone. This also helps Symmetra with her very poor mobility while Lucio is in speed mode. Reinhardt and Bastion are an absolute menace to unprepared teams while they sit on the payload. Mei + Reinhardt allows them to handle people who try to close in. They slow down due to the ice and the hammer comes singing. The ice wall can be used to let his shield recover a bit. Though in most cases Mei has other things she wants to deal with... she can nearly solo an army. |
| Fucking hell, I'm getting sick of Genji. EVERY fucking genji player I meet sucks ass with him. I decided to follow one Genji player as Mercy just to see if my generalization was just a miss but goddamn was he garbage. I ended up getting more kills with my pistol than him. It was pathetic. It's reached a point where I just leave the game if I see 2 or more Genji players on my team. |

As a person who played Genji, beginners shouldn't even touch him. You need to time his swords right for all the damages and not use it + your dash prematurely. That along with actually being able to land stars and dodge. I used him when I first started out and then quickly went off him to get used to the classes before moving back to him. So far, I enjoy tracer the most. Love warping all over the place and rekting kids with my Q just to teleport out. The class I most suck with right now is Hanzo. Can't land his arrows for the life of me. |

| I played a few hours with my girlfriend, gotta say I didn't much care for it. It's well balanced and each character plays off of eachother well, given the right teamings and cooperation but I found the level design and game modes to be lacking and uninteresting, personally. I gave each character a go for a bit and gravitated towards Reaper but in general, I didn't care much for any of the characters. Saw a lot of people playing as Genji way too much, most matches had atleast 2 of him on each team. I also personally don't care for how slow the majority of the character's feel. It honestly could be that I'm not the best at the game (had roughly a 2 to 1 kill-death ratio while focusing on objectives) or that my girlfriend and I are currently trying to find something to play since we got bored of Smash Bros and Mario Kart, but I honestly wasn't having much fun while playing it, not to say its bad or anything, just wasn't fun for me. Kinda feel like I'm not getting the hype, considering the amount of love this game is currently getting. I was hoping it would click for me =, but didn't, oh well, back to Evolve. |

 I love Christine "If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. He will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; In proportion as he simplifies his life, the laws of the universe will appear less complex, and solitude will not be solitude, nor poverty poverty, nor weakness weakness." - Henry David Thoreau |
| Don't you play like COD/Battlefied? Just pick Soldier 76 and then your good to go. Or don't bother commenting if your just gonna be a dick. |
 |
| For me, Bastion always gets play of the game because people are retarded and just walk in front of him in turret mode. I remember I got the most clutch ult with Lucio to save my team's ass and they still gave POTG to Bastion for getting 3 kills in turret mode. BS |

All these games have the worst communities i swear, people are so competitive and up themselves. some people just want to play to, you know, have fun and mess around. especially during the beta. |
| Played the game for a while, it is really repetitive after few hours. Can't justify buying this game for more than 30$ |

ExTamplier said: Played the game for a while, it is really repetitive after few hours. Can't justify buying this game for more than 30$ It's $39. Just skip coffee for a couple of days. |
| They aren't instant win characters. Most Reapers I take on totally suck and Hanzo's usually just manage to get their ult kills off the rest of my team. At least on PC on whatever region I'm playing in, Reaper never gets potg. Hanzo does quite often though, but his ult is so avoidable unless you're a slow character like Roadhog or D.Va out of cooldowns, or Bastion in turret mode. I've taken on one good Reaper and a few good Hanzo's, one of which I played against in the past 20 minutes and they got their potg without their ult, and they were on the losing team. The good reaper just played to his strengths. He genuinely knew how to play Reaper. |
Unknown- said: I'd say Hanzo does just because he is a sniper character. His ult doesn't though.seriously getting tired of generic reaper and hanzo players getting play of the game yaawn play a character that actually requires skill to play |

| |
| It's $60 on console. It's $40 on PC. Reason why is because porting is expensive and you have to pay fees to manufacture and distribute on console. Whereas, you don't have to pay jackshit to self-publish on PC. |
|
| The problem is about classes , nobody want to play Tank or heal , only DPS :'( |
| Now everyone in Hanzo so much ult abuse. Im really rocking mecha girl and Frosty the snowgirl ;) Absolutly wrecked it one match when i jetpacked through a narrow open door on the second floor of a building landed behind windowmaker shot her to hell then got charged in that small room by three players. Mech blew up jumped out pistol whipped the low health widow to death and shot the other two to death whist constantly strafing last guy ran away jumped back in new mech and jetpacked his ass down and killed him. Lost play of the game to a bastion camping objective..... |

| Besides Bastion being cancer in certain maps, it's a pretty fun game overall. Though I would prefer if there is a restriction on the amount of same heroes you can have per team, since it makes for some awfully boring matches at times. |

| This is a skill based game. A team of 6 D.Va's outside of their mech could win a game, of their skill level is high enough and the enemy teams is low enough. The balancing needed is to make sure that all characters are viable at equal skill levels. Not viable against every character, but in general, and only have bad match ups to a few characters. Blizzard has done a great job of balancing. There's always something you could be doing better if you are currently losing. It's either your fault or your skill level isn't high enough (or the rest of your team). As Mei I avoid Junkrat like the plague unless I can shank him in the back. Against Symmetra and other Mei's I back off if I don't initiate combat first. I try to take out Roadhog only when he's alone. I try to predict when S:76 will use his Alt fire, and protect myself from it. I close in on Reinhardt but avoid his front so I won't get pinned. Pharah is like my ultimate nemesis and I only try to get her while she's distracted. Mei has plenty of disadvantageous match ups but I try to engage them in a way that will give me the upper edge. Because of that, this little girl who shoots one icicle every 5 seconds or has to freeze enemies before she kills them, I still end up with gold medals for eliminations every now and then (usually at least copper). Though I almost always have a gold on objective time. Find out what your character is good and bad at, and play to your strengths and try not to let them exploit your weaknesses. |
| Maaaan, someone put me on this Winston game. I'm getting gamed on out here. Hopping off stage when things get heated and stuff. I love taking WM/Hanzo/Bastion by surprise on high rises though, that makes the struggle worth it. |
  |
| Went to an e-sports club. Not even a member, just walked in. This group was looking for one more player for their custom game so I ended up joining. Ended up destroying everybody, even got play of the game. I was so good that nobody wanted to play anymore. I've never felt so great and bad about myself in a while. |
|
| So I just had a team of 6 Torbjorn's and we stomped the enemy team. Couldn't even touch the payload lol. |

| Played a few hours of it today. Well, I'm best with supporters and perhaps also a bit of Tank so far. My favorite Hero is Luicio as I just find him so easy to use. Surprisingly, I'm not very good with Reaper. Also tried Widowmaker before and it's rather challenging as well. I'm going to try some of the other supporters soon as well. |

| Stopped playing because game seems to cause my system to overheat for some reason. |
| Reinhardt is my man despite his short range attacks with the hammer, his abilities makes him so OP. I'm having so much fun catching players off-guard with charge, even better combining it with earthshatter and the shield is perfect for escorting the payload. |
 |
| Tried Tracer today. Not bad but the low HP turns me off without support. |

| Can anyone tell me how the game is on console? I would play this game on PC, but I don't have one and my PS Plus ran out and I'm too lazy to renew it. |
