Roverwatch should be a thing

I thought he was referring to mcree at first.

New patch is live a few days early. Patch notes in the launcher. New map, emotes, Season 2...

Full patch notes, basically what was on the PTR: http://us.battle.net/forums/en/overwatc ... 0749104703

Free weekend coming up for consoles between 9-12 September: https://playoverwatch.com/en-us/blog/20243911

Hope they do something similar for PC after this. Trying to rope another friend into it

Started playing in Competitive Mode.
A much more enjoyable experience IMO. I don't personally care about wins and points and ranks; however other people do and are therefore much more determined to play the game as intended.
Quickplay is people charging into the objective one by one most of the time, in Competitive there are actual coordinated attacks.

I wonder how long it will be until I get into the Salty Ranks though..

In my experience that happens somewhere around 45. You still get salty people in higher ranks but not as much. Although the rankings are all different now from what I understand so who knows.

Developer says it's not, I repeat, not an Overwatch ripoff.

Right.

lol wtf is that for real?
that's like parody level of ripping off.
can you even do that? lol

Yeah it's not even from some never-heard-of-before Chinese knockoff developer. It's from Hi-Rez Studios, who made games like Tribes Ascend and Global Agenda, which both are respected titles.

The boss of the studio said it's all just coincidence as Paladins was in pre-production well before Overwatch was announced, and then continued to say how Overwatch ripped off game modes from other games as well (specifically referring to Payload).

He seems to be forgetting about the 1-on-1 Torbjorn, Roadhog, Mei, Hanzo, Junkrat, Reaper, Reinhardt and Soldier 76 rip-offs.

Like Penny Arcade put it;

That’s a tough position to be in, I think - where you might be right, but nobody is obligated to care.

They have pre-alpha footage of some of their heroes from before Overwatch was even announced. I'm still skeptical it's all entirely coincidence.

Here's the reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Paladins/comme ... sponse_to/

The videos he points to in his defense are a far cry from where the game ended up, and at any time in the creation process, he could have adjusted the design in response to Overwatch's similarities.

Wow....thata rather blatant. Might as well just go get that Chinese rip off.

The Overwatch Open grand final begins in just under an hour.

It's the biggest tournament for the game so far. Apparently it's being broadcast on TBS in the US.

Weird. It isn't a very good spectator game IMO, way too confusing.

They just need to use the cameras more effectively. I don't have too much of a problem following a match.

BTW, this week's brawl is Arcade until Tuesday. Double health, faster ultimate charge, and faster cooldowns. It's mayhem, and I love it.

I think the current PTR patch has extra spectator csmeras.
