Ohhh man

I charged into two junkrats as Rein when the entire enemy team was hiding on the exact opposite side of the payload as me at the last point, turned around, and zarya had ulted everyone left when my ult was up too

it was the most beautiful thing I've ever done

character Idea for support sniper (I so hope this is what sombra becomes)

left click shoot bullet that heals ally or harms enemy pending what it hits
right click aim down sights (Not a full sniper zoom, just an aim down sights)

This sniper riffle would be high impact built for long range that would be shit at close range (Like the crusaders cross bow in TF2)

Shift ability = throw a grenade
E ability = Put up a little defensive barrier you can hide behind for a short time

Ultimate = Either a radar your team has access to for a short time or a temporary cloak for yourself

This character would encourage people used to normal shooters like cod, battlefield, and halo, to try out support. Having more people want to try support would be a great thing in this game

true. But then there are alot of similar ults

Mecree's ult has aim bot like powers and so does 76's
Winstons ult is powerful melee attacks and so is genjis

The difference between widows and this one would be that widows lets you see through walls
This one is just a radar like the radar in halo or the uav in cod

Aimbot only describes 76's ult. McCree's ult is a locking one shot kill. They're not similar.

Winston's ult makes you a tank and removes basic abilities to allow you to knock people around without doing a ton of damage.
Genji's ult makes him a glass cannon and has the highest damage output in the game.

Two snipers who both have supportive vision based ultimates would be very similar and very lazy, IMO.

Actually gonna make that into two ideas

Character 1 Offensive character hybrid between 76 and widow

left click shoot bullets of assault rifle
right click aim down sights (Not a full sniper zoom, just an aim down sights)

Shift ability = Some kind of slide ability
E ability = throw a grenade that does damage

Ultimate = radar your team has access to for a short time


Character 2 Support sniper

left click shoot bullet of sniper rifle
right click Full zoom

This sniper riffle would be high impact built for long range only that would be shit at close range

Shift ability = Put up a little defensive barrier you can hide behind for a short time
E ability = Bullet that can heal ally it hits

Ultimate = Temporary cloak for yourself

Lazy yes but still useful I think. The one thing 76 lacks is an aim down sights and a radar to be truly the COD guy. So seeing another character with those is something I think some people would enjoy. Though it would be lazy, I think it would appeal to some.

Cloak would be obv cooler though and is by far the character type I want more. So I really hope sombra turns out to be like that second character I mentioned

I really hope they don't introduce cloaking or stealth to the game. Unless it's cloaking/stealth where you still see ripples

I would be fine with the cloak you describe and it is the type I'd want

Considering all the hype surrounding sombra, her being a support sniper, and sombra meaning shadow in Spanish, I really think cloak may be an ability she ends up having

I just hope they do not add disguising to the game. Spy should be unique to team fortress and it is easily the most confusing and diffcult for noobs to play class.

I don't want 5 spys on my team in overwatch!

Barrier would have health to it and basically act as a stationary wall you can snipe/stand behind until its dead

Widows ultimate would break this cloak, if someone shot you while you were cloaked you would become more visible for a second like when you shoot spy in tf2

does overwatch have an MMR for quick play? I've found the first two games absurdly easy, and I'm assuming it's just because i'm playing against other newbies.

Yeah, there's a hidden MMR. Additionally, anyone who played the beta had their rating carried over iirc. Not sure on much else of the specifics there.
