Overwatch

So this is now the most popular game in the world and it's fast becoming an e-sport (whatever that is).

Who plays Overwatch? I'm on PS4, mainly play with Roadhog, Reinhardt or Zenyatta.

I keep being tempted to go and get it, is it one that pits you with an similar level of players or would I just get fed up quickly of getting battered and being called a noob?

In quick play it's a free-for-all but in competitive play you're pitched against players with a similar skill rating.

Got it about a week ago.

Wow, it is awesome to play, just love how each character plays really differently, seem to have found my favourite though in Zenyatta. My lads though prefer Bastion.

In terms of game play, it's the best FPS ever. And the more you play, the more teamwork becomes a factor.

Yeah in FPSs I've never really been a team player before but it's essential in this and especially as a healer, when everyone starts running off by themselves then it's game over.

With a split team, Zen is probably easiest, to be honest. You can heal from range. But he's more of a damage dealer than a healer really.

When it's maps where you can get to an elevated position it's not an issue as much if the party splits but when they start running off round corners then I just have to remain with the core group and then get taken out by Genji or Mcree (they're the bane of me!)

Yeah they're both nasty for a Zen. I'd stay as close to your tanks as possible, if I were you.

Yeah love it when someone picks Reinhardt as can hide behind the shield.

Still using Zen as my main and although I've not gone into competitive mode on an app it's showing my level to be Gold II which I'm happy with. Also been trying as D.Va and just started trying out as Reaper which I'm enjoying.
Boys are alternating between Bastion, Winston and Genji.

I'm using Roadhog before they nerf his hook again. He's just too damn good!

Some new nerfs/buffs incoming and the new character should be dropping very soon.
