New Halloween event for Overwatch 2 now out from October 25th until November 8th. I've had one playthrough so far just on story mode rather than the higher difficulties. Its pretty fun actually, longer than I anticipated. I think its helped that I haven't done some of these PvE events for the past few years so it felt very fresh and some decent ideas using the heroes in different bodies/themes. The four characters on story mode I think makes it a little more difficult because many won't be used to Junker Queen, Kiriko, Ashe and Sojourn but still fun nontheless. Anyone else tried it and have some thoughts? Anyone want to give it a bash over the next week too?

Watched the whole reveal 10 days ago. Was a decent watch and learned a few extra things along the way. Full video below if you want to watch it. The roadmap of what to come too has been shared within the video above, so i've grabbed a screenshot for ease below: The jury is out still on how 5v5 will work instead of 6v6 for me. The fact they've had to go back and remodel most maps to combat this switch should prove worthwhile. At least we get to try out the beta in a few days to see how all of this is going to work out. The Beta is out 28th June to 5th July. You need to opt in to the Beta here >>> OW2 Beta Link Junker Queen update came out too. Here's a clip I've found that explain her abilities (even though he sounds a little annoying) but the official gameplay trailer gives you a quick snippet to what she's like. What's everyone's thoughts? I'm excited to get back into Overwatch and try and see if it can reignite the fire once had on a game we played so so much of. -

At the recent Overwatch League weekend, they released 2 big reworks for existing Heroes. Bastion's Rework ⏩ Move while in sentry form 💣 New ultimate: Artillery Strike 💥 New ability: Tactical Grenade 🧢 Cap-tivating new look Sombra's Rework 👀 Reveal hacked targets through walls 👩💻 Hack no longer removes stealth ⌛ Hack cooldown reduced 💥 Deal more damage to hacked targets I can good Sombra players being really annoying now as they hack you at every opportunity😅 Good to see a few reworks. Bastion without a heal is likely to make some difference I think if the team hasn't got a good Mercy. I'd expect more reworks for existing heroes if we're still about 6 months out from seeing the game. Any OW players thinking these are decent changes? @LordBaguette @Stretch616 ?

This year's OW Winter Event is from December 10th to January 2nd. 3 separate week's worth of skins and sprays to get again. This time round it seems to have a slight variation of the snowball fight mode from last few years. Snowball Deathmatch will be a separate gamemode to choose in the Arcade mode. Also, noticed that Mei catches a snowball thrown at her - I'm not sure if that's just her ability or a common one for everyone which should be what's happening. I must admit although it's not really different to the last few years, I've always found the snowball fights to be some really good lolz with everyone. Could even be a great FG party night between us all the OSK (One Snowball Kill) about.

Another mini challenge to obtain a Lego-esque skin for Bastion alongside some sprays and skins. From September 17th to September 30th.

Pretty significant changes. You will now be asked to pick the role you want to play before heading into a quickplay or a competitive game. Tank, DPS or Support. Once you find your game, you will be only allowed to choose a Hero out of the role you've pre-selected. They want to push the 2-2-2 format as they want the change in the meta which is already being seen in playtests and the fact that some heroes will be getting some substantial changes. I need to rewatch this one as its 16 minutes long but they probably needed a shake up to the game to keep it fresh...i'm just not sure forcing every team to be 2-2-2 is the way to go. At least they'll be 3 rankings you'll have now so if you end up having an awful score on one, you have 2 more chances to get your rank higher on the other 2 😄 What do you guys reckon? Good change or will it not be worth the effort?

Arrives October 15th. No crossplay yet but sure is tempting to get it on here so holidays wont drag so much 😂

July 16th to August 5th A challenge per week available. I fancy the 3rd week with the Reinhardt skin. That Hamster ball skin though is awesome.

Recent update - New Map is called Havana. Havana, a vibrant, historic port city where the winds of change blow strong, is home to Overwatch’s newest Escort map! Begin your trip at the Taller de Sebastián, where the classic cars that line Havana’s bustling streets stop for refueling and repair. Escort a truck of rum barrels on the sun-drenched cobblestone roads, fighting off those who try to stop you. As you make your way, duck into a colorful building to escape enemy fire and savor the impressive flavors of Havana at La Cocina de Miranda or Café del Sol. Battle your opponents through the alleys until you reach the Don Rumbotico rum distillery, a once little-known local treasure that has recently earned international acclaim. Finally, guide the jalopy through the distillery to its destination at the Havana Sea Fort, a historical landmark recently purchased by an anonymous financial group and closed to the public. All-Star Skins To celebrate the Overwatch League 2019 All-Stars, we’re adding two new Legendary skins— 2019 Atlantic All-Star Mercy and 2019 Pacific All-Star Lúcio! These skins will be available from May 7th to May 22nd. BUG FIXES Maps - Havana Fixed text errors on Taller de Sebastián and several posters Fixed a bug where players would slide along the bottom of the pillars and the wall corners on the second floor of La Euforia Fixed an issue where players could become stuck on the Yucca plants

It's out until May 6th and finally a new PvE event to play. What was good about these Overwatch events is that they are all playable so @phil bottle, @tronic44, @crispymorgan and myself played through all of them in order. It's another decent PvE event that sticks with the story, I think the first one was always the best for me but it's not far off it. They really should focus on developing a PvE game as there is so much they could do with it. It'll be a shame to see these modes go after May 6th.

A small patch landed yesterday just before we started playing to drop the new Paris map for everyone. We played it a few times and it seemed a decent Assault map, with the first point harder to take against a well co-ordinated team holding the choke point just ahead of the point. One of the better map additions on first play through me thinks. Not sure what you guys thought@LordBaguette @crispymorgan @Greboth?

Be good to have a thread about how our game nights have been going. We managed to get Stretch to Diamond (finally!) a few days ago and we seem to be levelling off a little. Roadhog is annoying the hell out of me when I play as DVa. Loving [mention=1456]TehMoe[/mention] Ana and [mention=1465]Greboth[/mention] Reinhardt games of late. Cheers guys. I'm currently floating around 2500.

Next event is from Jan 24th to Feb 18th. A new Reaper skin has been revealed below and I imagine quite a few new bits and pieces for Roadhog. Haven't seen any further details on any new PvE event but I imagine it will be all similar to last year.

Introducing Ashe - Leader of the Deadlock Gang. Ultimate looks OP as hell.

Introducing Hammond, in a wrecking ball! Loving the fact we have a new tank to play soon. Abilities sound great. Think it will change the meta?

New Deathmatch map specifically made for Widowmaker 😉

Okay. This needs some thought. Yes, I know the best idea is to delete it off the rotation, however as it won't be we should talk about how would you play this map? Attack and Defense team comps? Tactical routes? We gotta do something as losing on this map is painful as we know it before its over.
