Overwatch Dev Tracker

This is just a mistake on the website. Thanks for pointing it out. Apologies if it led to confusion.

I'm hearing that we believe the issue was fixed around noon Pacific Time today. Are folks still experiencing the issue?

We'll check it out. Thanks for reporting. Apologies that it's not working.

That made my year.

hi

Here are offensive hero win rates in competitive play since 1.5.

Offensive Hero Win % Comp Mode since 1/5

Note: Ignore the weird spikes/dips that happen at the end of the season (this is just weird data reporting during the lull)

Sombra = Brown Reaper = Pink Tracer = Blue McCree = Blue/Green (wtf is with these colors) Soldier = Mauve? Doomfist = Yellow Genji - Green

Also, here is the same data with Sombra emphasized but only at Diamond and above (because I knew you'd ask)

Sombra Win % Comp Mode since 1/5 - Diamond and Above

We have a fix for this coming.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We'll get it fixed.

Sorry if I missed it in this thread but can someone post a link to the clip of whoever is throwing? It's very easy to action people if there is video evidence. We just need to see it.

Again, sorry if I missed the link in here if it's already posted but it's Sunday and I am not at the studio right now.

Well we've recently been experimenting back and forth with this mechanic. In our latest builds hitting shields doesn't generate ult for either party.

But even with the way it was, both the shield owner and the attacker gain ult equally (and even then only at a 20% rate), so if you were firing into an enemy barrier to charge your ult you're also charging his/her ult as well.

Just to clarify: We do actually have damage fall off for certain weapons in the game, but Soldier: 76 doesn't currently use any. We tend to reserve fall off for weapons that are intended to be close range weapons, such as Tracer's Pulse Pistols or Reaper's Hellfire Shotguns.

For example, In a game of upward in TF2, I can spam the doors with soldier but I can only deal 30-40 damage (if they even hit the target). To dish out the real damage I have to get close to the enemy and take risks

As far as spam is concerned, there's a few things to keep in mind comparing Overwatch to TF2. Firstly, we're only 6v6, whereas TF2 can range from 8v8 to 16v16, so they tend to have a lot more stuff flying through the air at any given time.

Secondly, our tank role heroes are generally very good at shutting down spam like this. If your team is being locked down by a bunch of Pharahs firing rockets into a choke, a single friendly Reinhardt pushing out ...

Its true he has a typically more support-like ability in his Biotic Field, but the roles aren't meant to be hard rules that we have to follow. They're meant to be more guidelines so players can more quickly understand how to they should approach playing the character.

For example, as you guys have seen by now Zenyatta can pump out some insane damage, but he is listed as a support still.

As far as 76 being overpowered, he is! Everyone is!

It works (hopefully) how you'd think it does, by automatically aiming at the nearest target to your reticle within a certain area on the screen, which is currently designating by that large circle in the HUD.

The thing you might now know about it though is that it also locks your spread to zero, which means you can just hold the button down and go to town. This means even if you are an FPS god and somehow can literally hit every bullet without your ult, it still offers you a significant benefit in aim, in a sense.
