The Overwatch Thread

He's immobile when he's in tank form, so just go around it.
 
I think someone like reaper could do the trick. his ult makes him practically invincible
 
Basically, Tracer had a Victory Pose that showed off her butt, people complained, and it was removed.
HOWEVER. It was ALREADY being considered for removal due to it not fitting her character,
I dont really get the point behind that though. It's not like the pose was meant to be sexual. Having your back turned towards the camera isnt sexual at all.
 
I swear, that butt was fantastic publicity for the game. I only ever heard of it because of the butt. I almost wonder if that was done on purpose by the marketers and the developers...
 
wasn't the butt also an OPTIONAL pose? like, it's not a default one?

Hey man the world may never know
 
It was an unlockable pose, it's mostly people getting butthurt over the censorship of something possibly sexual.
I don't wanna say _____gate but.
It's kinda close to that.

Publicity or not it caused a shitshow.
 
I think if something else prompted this, I think that there wouldnt have been an issue.

I mean, the devs have shown they are trying to be progressive with the characters. that said, the character design i like the least is probably the pink haired chick that's supposed to be super buff. like, her design just seems too plain compared to the rest of the cast, and i mainly blame that on her design direction.

like, 76 is literally the soldier-man but his design is so cool in comparison.

She was made to quell claims of all the women looking the same, and I gotta say even with that it's a pretty good design for body variance. Mei's a good example too, even if she's (Very sadly) skinny under all that winter get-up.
 
I just always thought she was just a bulkier knockoff of Vi from League of Legends when it came to her design. like, again, i don't blame it on her being a different body type, it just feels that there wasn't anymore thought to it but that.
 
TBH I think part of why Zarya might be considered a little bland is because it seems like she was designed with the huge detailed particle cannon to be on her at all times. The other tanks, even if they have huge detailed weapons too, mostly have weapons that fit with their color scheme and all that, you know? Zarya's kinda adds more specifically to her than the others, at least to me.

Wait she is? Huh..
she's got the thick thighs tho
Very true

I myself can't wait to play as 76, Mei and possibly Tracer, seeing how I do play Scout in TF2
 
she's got the thick thighs tho
but thems not the kinda thighs I like
I prefer thunder thighs, not masculine thinghs.
basically i prefer SFV chunner's thighs over SF4 Chunner's man legs
 
Oh hey an Overwatch thread. I've been literally living under a rock until yesterday when this game got my attention. I've seen it in passing, but only really heard of it when the whole Tracer's ass scandal came about. Even then I just rolled my eyes at SJW nonsense and moved on. That is until yesterday, when I saw people talking about the Alive trailer and decided to check it out. 5 mins later I pre-ordered and signed up for beta after a little of research. Though I mainly blame my want to get back into TF2 and Awesomenaughts olden days that lead to my unregrettable (as far as I can see for now) impulse buy.

Butts are like opinions, everyone has one and there all shitty.
 
I've played the beta a ton, really fun game.
Tracer is bae, by far my favorite character to play.
 
Yep, as suspected, putting effort into a character's character puts it above another bland overused pose.

well, it's also a homage to a classic pinup

and we still get the butt, so how could anyone be mad? we went from Cammy to good ol' fashioned 20th century pin-ups. what's not to love?

I mean, I didn't see anything wrong with it, but with the old pose, if I had to improve something, I'd say have her do more with her legs. and as a legs man, i approve.

It shows they were being honest with why they removed the original (it didn't gel with her personality). This one seems better in that regard, on top of being very cute. It's cool.

again, I'm willing to believe them in that they wanted to change it in the first place. what caused the whole shitstorm was how they announced it. if they had just not responded to the comment in the first place, I feel it would have gone without a hitch. nobody at Blizzard should have responded to it at all.
 
I'll wait 3 days to see if anyone will bitch and moan about the new pose, THEN i'll hand it to blizzard for playing their cards well
 
I liked the old pose personally, but eh, its not like I'll die or anything over it.
 
We could've had both, y'know?
