The biggest problem it has however is the gameplay which will divide the masses, overwatch puts team first before individual skill, you cant carry your team likewise the emphasis is on team "abilities" synergy.

    an example : a well defended point may drop immediately if the other team has the right combo to counter your teams skills and abilities. this is very different from other FPS where a lone ranger can hold point, or if one team is too dominant in skill, the other team will fail.

    what happens is, if you are caught with a lesser team, no matter what you do will fail.

    another probrlem is their servers, blizzard has SEA and USA servers linked, this is a huge problem cause suddenly you may find yourself playing on the other side of the world with 200+ ping.

    As it stands id recommend this game for TF2 fans and die hard lovers of Blizzard, but will caution anyone who wants to get into it.    … Expand

    The game is fairly well polished and optimized, but can be pretty glitchy at times.
    The game has quite a few characters by now, which promotes varied gameplay, but unfortunately Blizzard is atrociously slow at balancing them. After reworks or new characters are added, it takes months for them to become balanced. Brigitte is the newest example of this, the character is broken af and has caused many tank mains (myself included) to stray away from tanking because she can screw them over without even needing to touch the keyboard.
    Competitive in Overwatch isn't particularly good (I personally loathe it). There's no form of role queuing, so you often end up with with 3-4 DPS mains (since DPS players make up the vast majority of the playerbase).
    Overwatch has annual events where you can unlock limited time cosmetics by playing or buying loot boxes, they also usually feature special arcade modes.
    Overwatch has some pretty nice social features, there's both voice and text chat (the text chat is only available on PC though), and you can easily stay in touch with people you meet outside of the game as well due to the social features of the launcher.

    Regardless of my many gripes with this game, I've come to love it due to the varied gameplay and memorable characters, and I would highly recommend trying it out.    … Expand

So all of the things you hate being used against you, you can use against your opponents and sometimes you'll see some truly hilarious/bizarre sh1t as one team desperately tries to out class the other.

    There definitely needs to be more maps, champs and game modes. But the good news is when you pay for the game you pay for all the DLC that will be coming out as well. If you're on the fence, wait a bit. It'll be interesting to see where this game goes.    … Expand

    By far the best First Person Shooter I have ever seen. Combines Fast paced Call of Duty and team Fortress Gameplay, While including the strategy of a top down MOBA.

    Overwatch is Blizzard's take on the FPS (First Person Shooter). However to simply call the game a first person shooter would be a disservice.

However to simply call the game a first person shooter would be a disservice. Blizzard has crafted a game in this emergent genre of 'hero shooters/arena shooters; that borrows the best ideas from other games in the genre like Team Fortress 2. Blizzard has put their own spin on it to make it a fresh experience. The art style is fantastic too and is primed for a feature length film. It really is some gorgeous stuff and I don't think its an stretch to say that the visuals themselves would look at home in a Pixar film.

    The performance is rock solid as well. The game has been incredibly well optimized and features one of the most robust suites of options I have seen in a PC game. This feels like it was built from the ground up for PC. You can customize damned near any key. You also can adjust key-bindings at the hero level. Yup, you have a set of key-bindings for each of the 21 heroes currently in the game. You can also customize the shape, and color of the on screen reticle. Its this attention to detail that shows in just about every area of the game.

    Overwatch centers its focus on its heroes and how their abilities can be used with and against other heroes. Its focus on team composition and allowing you to swap heroes gives the game incredible depth and an underlying layer of player choice and strategy.

    The game features a variety of modes such as training, practices vs. AI, as well as quick play. Within these modes the actual game types themselves can consist of things like payload (familiar to fans of TF2), capture point and King of the hill style matches. One of the criticisms leveled against the game is lack of content. I would agree with this statement if it was in regards to the number of modes themselves. But not every game needs a single player campaign. I feel that with the number of heroes on display here, a single player campaign would have diluted the multiplayer experience. Jeff Kaplan of Blizzard also pointed out that support heroes like Mercy would be tough to work into a single player campaign because of their nature as support heroes.

    I would like to see more modes added over time. Perhaps Capture the flag. I don't think Team Death-match would fit well either. Blizzard has smartly decided to de-emphasize kills and kdr in favor of promoting team play. What is odd however is that the majority of the 'play of the game' are from people/heroes who rack up a lot of kills.

    The game features a commendation system which on its own doesn't really mean much. But it can be nice to get commendations from your team mates if you do a good job of healing. It also has things like "damage blocked." It is a way of saying hey look how well you did your job, or performed your role.

    The game features a progression system that gives you a loot box when you level up. These drops can be anything ranging from currency to skins, avatars, sprays, voice lines or victory poses. Its all superfluous but it is a nice way of customizing your character and making it your own. The game does have micro-transactions but these are only for loot boxes which are at the end of the day cosmetic stuff and don't impact the game itself. My initial concern is that the more games you play the higher the chance you will get duplicates from loot boxes. Fortunately those duplicates do reward you gold which can then be used towards something else you don't have.

    In the end Overwatch is a fantastic well crafted game despite needing a few more modes. Blizzard have created a solid platform to build upon and have stated that future heroes and maps will be free which is very welcome indeed. Multiplayer only games can struggle to find success. Overwatch however has enough depth in its gameplay that it never felt repetitive.    … Expand

    There stories that just scream to us for more exploration of Blizzards beautiful world they have created.

    On launch day most of us players can recall that Overwatch had a Huge shortage of content, being the only option for players to play was "quick play", but that was all we needed to be hooked into the game. Though what we didn't realize is that the story would soon grasp us and claw at our minds to learn more. 21 hero's (Playable Characters) on launch day with more to come, a character for everybody seemed to fit the Blizzard motto. Each character well equiped with very well crafted abilities, stylized looks, with most importantly there very own unique personality. Given that the game play feels damn near flawless its no wonder a game like Overwatch grew to be so successful, but that's not where this game shines its brightest, at least not in its entirety. Blizzard Entertainment actually put forth the effort to create a story on there Competitive Based FPS. Though there are no single player campaign element to the game Blizzard still continues consistently gives us information on the universe and characters of Overwatch, Through comic shorts or there cinematic shorts which always perks the interest of all fans of the Overwatch universe. Seeing these consistent updates and new content being added to Overwatch one might think there is a budgeting issue within there team or some sort of annoying DLC available for purchase within the Overwatch game/website, well Im here to reassure you that is not the case. Everything that is Overwatch you can get with just one Purchase of the main game, though there are micro-transactions in game you may only purchase skins in game that you may still unlock via in game currency. This effectively lets Overwatch have a very respectable and financially profitable business model that the fans and I have grown to love.    … Expand

    Lack of greed/anti-consumerism: 9.5/10: I think the free monthly DLC justifies the hefty price tag. The developers have given gifts to players, that would normally cost 1-5$. When Blizzard accidentally made it too hard to get the limited-edition cosmetics during the anniversary event, the gave the players a double XP weekend to make up for it. The only reason that i'm not giving full marks here, is that there are micro-transactions in the game.

    Public relations/Taking community suggestions: 7.5/10: Blizzard is quick to patch bugs, but other flaws in the game can take months to iron out. The lead game director is active on the forums, and frequently hints at new updates, or replies to complaints/suggestions.

    Design/Long term enjoyment: 10/10: I absolutely love the design of this game. It has always stayed fresh for me after playing for 30 minutes to 3 hours nearly every day since launch. The diverse roster of characters, all with unique abilities and lots of cosmetics keeps me having fun, after multiple hours of playing. One players begin to tire out, a new major update comes and refreshes a game. If you are looking for a game to invest a lot of time into, this is the game. It manages to take the fun mechanics of a FPS game, but not be repetitive, unlike Call of Duty, or Counter-Strike.

    Stability: 7/10: The servers don't crash very often, but it takes a long time to download updates right after they are released, as the servers are overwhelmed. Multiple times I have had to wait in a queue to join the main servers, which is completely unacceptable in a game that was nearly one year old (At the time), especially if the game costs 40$. There has only been one major bug that required disabling a character for a short amount of time, but otherwise the game it's self has been fairly stable.

    El movimiento es fluido y rápido, y el disparo es satsfying.

    Los héroes son realmente distintos y tienen su propia personalidad y jugabilidad. Ningún héroe juega igual que otro. Además, ya que he visto esto en línea últimamente, descuida a cualquiera que se queje del equilibrio de héroes y de las tácticas cursis que de alguna manera son "inmejorables". Esto es claramente un problema de "aprender a jugar". Jugué mucho la Beta, y déjame decirte, que el equilibrio está en un muy buen lugar, aunque podría mejorarse aún más. Todo tiene sus contadores.

    Mientras que este juego tiene sólo 12 mapas en este momento, y es repetitivo, se las arregla para mantenerse divertido e interesante durante un tiempo sorprendentemente largo. La razón principal de esto es que el juego tiene una profundidad inmensa bajo la apariencia casual-amistosa, es uno de esos juegos fáciles de aprender pero muy difíciles de dominar. Hemos detectado un problema desconocido. Y el aspecto competitivo del juego te mantendrá viniendo por más.

    La principal desventaja de este juego, es que si no tienes amigos con los que jugar, no obtendrás casi la misma satisfacción con aquellos que tienen su propia fiesta. Este juego se basa en gran medida en el trabajo en equipo y las tácticas. Todavía se puede encontrar el éxito en solitario, por supuesto, pero será más difícil.
