I know. I'm just saying. I hate Overwatch. Well, okay I love overwatch. I hate the people that play it.

Fortnite solo kinda sucks but is an absolute blast with friends.
---

Really? A majority of my time played has been solo, you are only accountable for yourself and you alone.

I usually suck at solo. Though I did make it to like number 5. That being said, solo can be pretty fun, but hard. With a team, you can usually live longer even if you're not the best. And it's fun when you can be around a few people that don't shoot you on sight. Haha.

Okay I suck at this game, but I kinda like it. I see why these kinda games have been popular recently.

I thought that once, started it up, decided it's best to just not play it.

I love Moira. She's one of my favorite characters. She's the dlc character I've played the most. >_>
---

She has the best AoE healing and best burst healing, while also having the best escape and good damage.



She dominates the support slot at pretty much all skill levels and she has below average fan porn.

She's fun to play though. I just hate playing against her because it never feels like she's disadvantaged at all.

All I need is Mercy porn to fill my support porn needs.

Moira would be okay if people who played her would actually heal once in a while instead of treating her as a pure DPS character. They need to either buff her healing or nerf her damage.

Maybe even both...

How has Fortnite been out for a year but I've only heard about it from my students in the past month?

I got ion XBox a while ago. You probably werenmt paying attention to it. Most people don't k wo about every game. Even the popular games aren't always known well until they become popular...

Well, my understanding is the base game was pretty much dead on arrival, so they were like "well fuck we just spent six years making this game and it's dead, now what?" and then PUBG became really big so they were like "we'll repurpose this into PUBG" and now everybody plays it.

It's also free so everyone loves that

Pretty much, it released awhile before Pubg came to Xbox and Fort-nite is also on PS4 AND free so it was easy for them to ride coattails to the point where it may have eclipsed it.

oh god no

her healing is amazing and her damage is what recharges her healing resource meter (also her damage is already among one of the lowest in the game).

The difference between a good moira and a bad moira is using only healing orb. It is almost never worth using damage orb, even in FFA, the healing is just too good where you can out live so much combined with your lifesteal.

He actual ability to heal is good, but there's clearly not enough incentive for players to actually use her as a healer. Maybe it's different in Competitive, but in QP I get killed by Moira constantly and very rarely get healed by one.

I do think its a problem people playing moira like a dps

but she has so much more potential if shes not being played like a dps.

People do that with everyone. I've seen my fair share of Mercy's going around just shooting her peashooter at everyone...

I don't think I've ever seen a Mercy even use the pistol.

Haven't won a game, got to the top 10 a few times though. I need to really work on my building.

It sucks when they play her like that. No help to the team at all. I've also seen to Mercy's fighting each other with the pistols.

It's not too bad. You can get use to it pretty fast after just playing for an hour. And play teams. You can see how your team builds. Even if you die, watch them for a little to understand the mechanics of building.

There's plenty of reasons a Mercy should use her pistol (it's almost always more effective than damage boost) but most won't cause they're bad or they're worried about being raged at by bads.

Idc what they do with Mercy. As long as theybalso heal the team. It's just sucks when they could definitely help. But they are off trying to shoot up someone...

IDK why, but when I solo queue I get matched with some very toxic people. Just complete assholes. And I almost never say anything unless it's a callout. And yes there are some names I recognize.

I haven't run into that problem. But maybe it's because I play on XBox. This is a PC thing. But it just seems like maybe they need a bigger fanbase. I feel like you shouldn't be running into the same people all the time...

Like, yesterday for example, I was Junkrat on defense on Hanamura, and the enemy team had a Zarya, and I honestly didn't even notice that until the very end when she caught me in a blackhole. Then they went into all chat and was all "good job Paperclip, you singlehandedly lost the game for your team. Next time don't supercharge your enemy Zarya".

The fuck? I never intentionally shoot Zarya bubbles, I would have noticed, and switched, if I was supercharging her. But they also called me out by name(and misspelled it cus they're a dumbass) for something I wasn't even doing. Like I said, I hate the people that play Overwatch.

They are definitely not my favorite people. I've had lots of shitty people, too. Though, with XBox, it's voice chat...

I did it! I got my first win! Am I hardcore now?
