Overwatch

Best thread on these here forums.

Some new gameplay vids came out last week, probably more coming this week. Maybe building up towards something at E3?

Did Blizzard ever announce anything at E3 ? They got their own events where they don't have to share the spotlight.

That doesn't look like a place to announce a title's release date, maybe some tech stuff for B.net. Maybe if they really want to drop a WoW expansion by the end of the year, so they need to announce it ASAP, but who honestly believes that ?

McCree and Hanzo

The auto aim is so real in that Hanzo video, haven't watched the McCree one

i want beta!

Did McCree gameplay look like someone was using a gamepad? Maybe this is going to be on XB1 and PS4 also?

I replayed the kill on Widowmaker at 2:20 in the Hanzo vid a bunch of times, but couldn't figure out how he got it. A few times he uses the cluster arrow for other kills with blatant misses, but it's definitely not that as it doesn't go on CD for the 2:20 kill. Best guess is auto aim.

Man, and I was at blizzcon when Metzen said "beta would start really soon" and next blizzcon is not far away.

It wouldn't be shocking, considering the popularity of FPS on consoles.

Are you not familiar with Blizzard's definition of the word "soon"?

This is shaping up pretty nicely. I really just am in love with the idea - it finally breaks the mold of simplistic or 'realistic' shooters with the same mechanics and no imagination. I've always wanted games to move forward at a faster pace in terms of creativity but I understand it's also a business. A big one. So I get it. I think I just wish it was someone other than Blizzard pushing the envelope in terms of this new shooter design, because I just have a weird feeling it's going to get inflated with weird bullshit like most Blizzard games do...
Still, I am definitely looking forward to cool characters with unique abilities and an empasis on fun and creativity in a shooter. Will definitely try this out.

Game looks good hopefully it has a lot of game modes.
