Overwatch

Guess just need the skills to level out a bit more. It is very apparent some players do not deserve anywhere near the rank in my teams sometimes, especially playing as Mercy as you are concentrating on their play and sometimes can do nothing but cringe as the Pharah you are healing/boosting flaps around uselessly, boosting and smashing their skulls into bridges they did not know where above them and basically freeze, dumbfounded as to why they are not soaring up high, safe in the sky.

I don't recall you healing me last night, but that sure sounds like me. I do wonder how often members of my team look at me and go "what the heck is that fool doing?"
I suppose it's not so bad, I'm only level ~10, so there are some heroes I've used for less than a round and have no real handle one, levels I've not really played etc.

I like Ana. Headshot capabilities would improve her. Extra heal and damage. She is good secondary healer, and can provide the main healer with support.

There's a dev post where they address this I think - if they give her headshot bonuses, they would need to reduce the power of her body shots, and they decided that a more reliable but lower damage/heal was what they wanted, rather than harder-to-use but spiky. Partly to distinguish her from the other sniper roles. I've found her to be quite powerful in the brief go I've had with her. I got quite a few off-screen kills by tagging people in a crowd. They either stick around, and the biotic grenade stops their team saving them, or they run off to get health packs and die on the way. I found the hardest thing about her was the lack of mobility. It really hurts not being able to run/grapple/leap.
 
Your normal level means naff all really, since it's not based on skill.

I guess you could argue a competitive rank is a better indicator.

As for Pharah, sometimes we panic trying to get away from being slaughtered and end up hitting our heads :)

Oh no, I was just using my normal level as an indicator of experience. My skill indicator would be "oh dear" on most scales.

I got a new personal best "damage dealt" in a round last night. With a tank (Roadhog).
 
Did not think I would be bored to tears with this so quickly. Even the thought of new heroes and maps is doing nothing for me. :( Oh well.
 
I'm getting into Lucio a bit. He doesn't feel individually powerful, so if you're with a rubbish group he's a bit painful, but he's definitely enjoyable to play and can be a big help to coordinated groups. Now I just need to find a skin for him that doesn't look like a pillock.
 
My game still freezes randomly during games. Freezes for a few seconds then resumes then does same again a few minutes later but usually by that point I'm dead. I'm not seeing whoever kills me because they aren't on my screen at the time to see them. It even happens when I spectate. Really annoying and it only seems to be this game. FPS is fine as I get over 100 at 1080p. I'm stumped at what it can be. Drivers up to date too.
 
Nope I'm done with this game till they revert this McCree buff. 3 games in a row getting shot by his ******** pistol at all ranges for massive damage plus the occasional player who snap headshots constantly. Even had 1 game where the enemy team went 5x McCree 1x Mercy. No counterplay to that ****.

Took me 5 games earlier on before I got a team that wasn't retarded. Had 1 enjoyable round on this today in about 2 hours worth of playing.

DVA is now worth playing after the update. Her ulti is devastating especially now you can survive it yourself. With her shield that can be toggled on or off she's a major threat in games now.

I agree, been using her a lot before hand but now she is great. My favorite char, always top 3 on kills with her too even when not trying for kills.
