Cooldown reduced from 6 seconds to 4 seconds
_Developer Comments: Sombra can be devastating in the right hands, but infiltrating and harassing enemies could often feel difficult. These changes should increase her effectiveness and teamplay. _ Win
Three heroes have also seen some major adjustments. For McCree, Deadeye now begins to lock onto targets after 0.2 seconds, instead of the previous lock-on time of 0.8 seconds. With Reaper, you'll now regain 20% health from all damage done to heroes. Roadhog's head hitbox has also been reduced by 20%, while his Scrap Gun will now do 33% less dam

Did you know Overwatch is different depending on whether it's on the PC or a console? Though the FPS Game Ranking Tips is mostly the same across platforms, there are a few outlying situations where changes were made out of necessity. One of these changes is with everyone's favorite Swedish engineer that they just love to hate: Torbjörn. Due to perceived differences in reaction time from PC to console, the console version of Torbjörn's turret was adjusted to have lower damage, as it was difficult to notice and avoid his turret's lock-on before it was too late. This was an adjustment made early into the game's release, which has since seen most other characters get modified health or armor and altered damage outputs. Many players, either Torbjörn fans or teammates that just want their stubborn friends to be more successful in putting enemies down, think it's time to revisit Torbjörn's damage and make him more viable as a defensive hero. People always underestimate the engine
Ability cooldown now starts when the barrier is placed, instead of when it ends
_Developer Comments: This change should help Winston do what he does best: distract the enemy team and block damage. _ Z
The main highlight of the new patch is addition of the Horizon Lunar Colony . As the name suggests, this new map takes place on the moon, and is available to play in both quick play and competitive modes. This map was previously announced back in May with a trai

It happened during the Olympics. It happened during Halloween. It happened during the Winter holidays, and you can be sure it will happen again. Every holiday season that sees cool new legendary skins, players complain about how little gold they get for recieving duplicates from loot boxes. It's a fair complaint when the coolest legendary skins are only available for a short time, and maybe you've received three of one you didn't want. And when the price of a seasonal legendary skin is 3000 gold, it can be a bit frustrating to only recieve 200 coins. Or worst-case-scenario for an impatient player, who splurges on the skin they wanted only to get it's duplicate in their next holiday box! It can take awhile to grind that kind of gold. Whether the Overwatch development team hears these complaints and addresses them or not, players can always take refuge in the fact that the Earth will make at least one more rotation around the sun, and whatever fancy seasonal holiday skin that eludes them will still be available next year. Well, maybe four years for the Olympics skins. O

Overwatch revolutionizes the shooter genre by stepping beyond classes and instead giving each character unique weapons and abilities.

If you talk to players who queue up in Competitive Mode, they all agree to hate one thing: Leavers . But when you delve further into that topic, the conversation gets skewed, and people start talking about accountability. There seems to be two main camps, those that want to make it easier to rejoin a match once you've been disconnected, and those that want to increase the penalty for leaving a competitive match. The problem with leavers is that they force the remaining players to continue the match with five players versus six. Even if for a small amount of time, this can have drastic effects on the outcome of the game. So though a minority of players feel like they shouldn't be punished for disconnecting, most other players agree that maybe they shouldn't be playing Competitive Mode in the first place with a shoddy connection. In the end, it's a team game, and can seem rather unfair when a teammate lea
