![]() A silly little award at the end of a match doesn’t make the difference between Overwatch being the best game of the year or not, so just shrug it off and get ready for the next round. If you’re sick of seeing the same heroes receive Play of the Game and never get one yourself, bear this in mind: it doesn’t really matter. If pressed to pick between triple kill from a Death Blossom or a well-timed Sound Barrier, the system will always choose the former. What goes into a Play of the Game is still unclear, but it doesn’t seem to favour those who quietly go about their work, doing things that help the rest of the team. Saying that, though, Lucio’s lethality on Nepal has earnt him a couple of highlight reel spots during my time with him. Quite how they change it up to get them included is anyone’s guess. The latter is my, and many others’, favourite healer, so it’s weird to see him as such an outlier. But the other two can wipe an enemy team with their Ultimates if they’re planned well enough, so it’s kind of expected.Īna and Lucio had the least amount of PotGs, owing to them not really doing anything all that “cinematic”. Mercy is a big surprise for me I don’t often see a PotG from her. No surprises about the other two, though, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. We got you covered though with some tips and tricks to beat it. He’s one of the best there is, but he requires some practice. In this Overwatch video I play on the workshop and play a new gamemode which I have never seen before called Bastion Fishing BASTION FISHING (Overwatch. A Bastion Comp is an annoying thing for Overwatch Season 18 players to deal with. Nice to see that casual players are trying out Genji. Jeff Kaplan, the game’s director, took to Overwatch’s forums to let everyone know which heroes managed a Play of the Game the most: Although they aren’t quite as popular in Competitive Play these days, Quick Play is where you can find all the newcomers and players who just want to watch the world burn choosing either of the two. Death came from everywhere you could imagine as everyone opted for either Torbjörn or Bastion to stop the payload and worried about the guilt at a later time. “It’s going to be an ongoing process, and hopefully we continue to improve it,” he assured.Do you remember Overwatch launch week? I do, it was hell. Bastion is a Defensive character who is designed to lock down an area with his turret form. We’re constantly looking at different things we can add to that.” So a snipe of someone half a screen away who was just chilling out and waiting to be headshot won’t be weighted as heavily as a Tracer zipping across, barely in sight that you manage to pick off. That’s one of the reasons why Bastion is really hard to play against Hanzo, Reaper, and heroes other DPS. Compared to things like Trace and Widow, hitting bastion is much easier than landing a headshot on the two mentioned above. Hamilton explains that “We’ve added some stuff recently, such as determining how hard a shot was to hit based on how fast the target was moving, how far away the target was moving. One of the several problems of using Bastion is that the hero has a massive hitbox. In the past, the system weighted healing more heavily than damage – the problem with that being that Zenyatta would almost always get PoTG whenever he popped his ultimate. It’s hard to figure out what is cool there.” Essentially, the computer sees massive damage as “cool,” even if the circumstances creating that damage are… not so cool. Comments Every competitive game has a shared villain: a character, ability, or weapon that’s. They take some numbers in, they put some numbers out. Unlike other times heroes were disabled such as in Overwatch 1, Bastion was made completely inaccessible to the player, even in the Hero Gallery. published Not being fun is a greater crime than being overpowered, argues our FPS expert. “We wanted to make it a really cool social moment at the end of the game, where it’s not just your team but the other team seeing this epic thing–well, hopefully epic thing–that happened during the game and you can all chat about it and bond over how cool that Mercy res was,” said Overwatch lead software engineer, Rowan Hamilton.Īs for why we usually see damage dealers on a PoTG: “From a technical standpoint, it’s a really hard problem to have a computer figure out what is cool. ![]() In an interview with GameSpot, Blizzard gives a little bit of insight on why this is happening, and what it was going for with the Play of The Game. ![]() ![]() More often than not it shows Bastion left-clicking, or Torbjorn walking back to his turret. ![]() Overwatch has a cool little feature at the end of every match, the “Play of The Game.” It shows something really cool or impressive that happened during the game… or at least, that’s the theory. Blizzard explains that it’s really hard for the computer to figure out what makes a “cool” play. ![]()
