Overwatch friendos

Ahoy hoy
I'm picking up OW in a week or so. I've never touched the game or any of the same kinds of games so I'm looking for some pleasant friends to play with that can show me the ropes, understand that I will be an idiot at first and just want to play for fun.

I'm maining Widowmaker btw

My Gamertag is EDiblePrawn9. If/when you add me, include "Pepperoni bois" so I know it's someone from here :smile:

That's cool with me, I'm going to be fairly busy with Uni stuff come the end of the month so I won't get to play OW as much as I'd like to

Unfortunately I'm on the Xbox One. I have physical reasons for why I don't really play games PC :/

I'm not at all fussed about the seasons. Competitive OW holds no appeal for me

You should try out all the heroes and basically have one in each role that you like, and be willing to switch out where the team needs. It's a co-op objective game after all. She's not a bad main, just don't pigeon hole yourself so early.
I get what you mean. I plan to learn at least one of each type. except tank. I can't stand playing tank.
I was thinking the floaty monk dude for my support character
Genji or Reaper for my offense

I'm going to stick with just one of each type until I know them well enough and can actually play the game somewhat competently :smile:

Because your teammates will tilt harder than the titanic.
That's inevitable. Especially whilst I'm learning the game :3

It happens at every rank with that character.

Really? I thought the issue was completely new players, sometimes even new to FPS full stop, going for widow and lurking about, creating a 5V6 and getting no picks. Or people just being meta slaves...

Game turns into oversalt when you're losing with a widow even if the widow is getting kills and at the start sometimes. The viewpoint of widow like this exists because of the reason you gave.

The new report system is good, I've definitely noticed much less toxicity by idiots who don't realise shouting at other players will not improve our performance as a team.

The toxic comments this season went from "you're a ******ed gay posh ****" (quality human being) to "your mum is **** at the game"... yes sunshine... yes she is... she doesn't even play it.
