Overwatch

Anyone else playing Overwatch? I got hooked and have been playing pretty much non-stop on battle.net since it released last month. If you are, or if you also play any Diablo 3, you can find me there as officeape#1183

We have been playing it on the XBOX One as well as Diablo 3 on the XBOX one. I dabble some with Diablo on the PC but I hate the movement controls on the PC. The click to move kills me when I play ranged characters irregardless of the key to hold to make sure you dont move when aiming.

Understandable - If I hadn't been an early adopter of D3 on PC, I probably would have been inclined to play it on a console, just for being able to use a controller.

Getting an XBone tomorrow. Amazon's Prime Day deal on them was too good for me to pass, so...yeah. It arrives tomorrow.

Not sure about Overwatch. We'll see what happens.

The PC is the way to go for Overwatch, if you've got the option. If not, they recently released a patch for the XBone/PS4 versions that includes a much needed nerf to Torbjorn's turret - namely slowing the speed at which it tracks players. For the PC, this wasn't a problem, as the controls with a mouse/keyboard are more precise and good players can nullify the turret. With gamepads, it was significantly more difficult.

Overwatch scratches a competitive itch I've had, and it's easy to jump into for a quick game.
