The latest Overwatch patch notes have been published, most notably with the news that the game's newest hero, Ashe, is now live in the game. In addition, several heroes have been tweaked including buffs to Mercy, nerfs(ish) to Reaper and a mixed bag of both to Roadhog.

    Had a chance to play Ashe. Ashe can be very OP and fun to play. Another great edition to the game. Also, the patch downloaded easily and I didn't need to reinstall like other suggested after this patch.

    Yeah, I'm not too happy with this. She can really be OP but takes a lot of skill. It should be a blast for the elitists who have all the fast-twitch skills, but it's going to make playing even harder for us duffers who were getting by with some of the less FPS-heavy characters.

    Torbjorn doesn't make armor packs anymore and is more dependent on his firearm, Pharah now has another character likely to shoot her down when she pops up, especially when she uses her ult that pins her in place in the open. That dynamite likely spells doom for Bastion. Ashe can snipe like Widow and has a deadly ult that also draws fire away.

    Seems a lot of people want the game to be another high-pressure FPS. And somehow they seem to turn up in Quick Play, the bottom levels of competitive, the arcade games... I guess the rest of us can still have some fun playing against the training AI.

    Game >cash shop Heroes.
    Game is ok,not good enough for me to get into but i can see some value in the game play,it is definitely not as bad as i see looking around the gaming centers.
    However to me selling Heroes is just lame,you design and FINISH the game with a bunch of heroes and that is it.
    If yo uwant to sell a future expansion with some single player game play,so be it,but just adding a new cash shop item every week is very lame and does NOTHING for the game.

    Most games i give a 2-3/10,OW gets a 6/10 it is ok for what it does but i prefer to see some more effort into the game and less on selling heroes.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

    Wizard, there isnt a CASH SHOP. They dont sell heroes. Most players know that all updates are included. So all new heroes are included as well.

    Just saying

    Guy's probably braindamaged, let it slide. He's doing some weird-ass copy-pasta and I think he got the game name wrong.

    There are plenty of no-aim-no-brain heroes that are viable in the current meta. Moira, Winston, Brigitte, Reinhardt etc

    Don't mind that. Just a bot. It goes on the fritz occasionally, but you can mention Final Fantasy XI a few times and it gets back on track.
