Doomā€™s been in the game for so long without much attention from Blizzard, his bugs happen quite often and might just change the course of a game if you donā€™t get a pick because of them. I hope the Overwatch team would put some work into him, because rn heā€™s a buggy character that no one can play properly.

you do realize how Halt works right ? Because making peoples abilities hit air (literally) is not one of the features of it. If you would have any clue how doomfist, or the game works, you would know that he should just charge his Slam while not activating mid air and rather drop on the floor, much like if you press E while a ball piledrives you.

What are you even saying ? No one took impact at all, Punch just ended up buffering itself into nothing so he kept stuck in place. God, at least try and understand an issue when youre already trying to sound smart about a subject youve no clue about :man_facepalming:

this whole clip is about what happens after he respawned, not what happened before. Man, its even written down in the document. Are you just picking out clips and trying to make sense ? At least try and sound smart and tackle the right points of the video LOL

They probably not going to fix it because itā€™s not in their budget right now.

He has been a favorite of mine to play, but thatā€™s almost impossible at that this point because of these bugs, he is a great character with too many faults.

Please blizzard before we look into buffs/nerfs at least fiz his bugs so we can jusge his power level correctly not blindly like right now.

Iā€™m glad that the list contains bugs that both hurt the doom player and help the doom player. Iā€™ve seen too many doom mains on the forums highlight the ā€œbadā€ bugs but not the ā€œgoodā€ bugs.

Doom getting bugged is just as bad as Bug abusing as Doom (actual bugs, not exploits like diag punch). Remove both = happy players.

(WARNING: This is long)

Doom isnā€™t OP Blizzard. He has so many bugs. This isnā€™t coming from some random PC Doomfist One Trick either. I AM A GOLD CONSOLE PLAYER. Iā€™m not saying Iā€™m the best but even on console doomfist is bad. These hitscan players are always complaining to me about doom being op. I was also a WIDOW ONE TRICK for like my first 5 seasons of playing. I was pretty good ngl. But when I went up against a doom, He cant do anything I could just one shot him. His Hitbox is so big, his abilities donā€™t work, and it doesnā€™t help that hitscans are getting buffed.

Sort of off topic from hear onā€¦

I donā€™t just play doom either, (if you want to know who I play Iā€™ll leave a list at the bottom) There are like 31 counters for doom along with his bugs and theirs a higher chance of mercy getting gold damage then me getting a game with no bugs. One of the saddest things is that Doom is more likely to win against sombra whoā€™s literally his counter than a hitscan because of how op they are. Its also sad to me that hitscans arenā€™t even really fun. Iā€™ve always been annoyed by sombra but at least sheā€™s fun. You can get creative and make smart game changing plays. Itā€™s not just stand in one spot, look at someone and shoot. The only fun hitscans (at least for dps) are like tracer and soldier. You move around the map. Literally brig is easier to play against then ashe, mccree, or widow at the moment. Just help out the doomfist community please. I donā€™t like reading the patch notes to see they fixed a bug, go into a game, and have it still happen. I have always enjoyed finding glitches/exploits in games and I enjoy this games rollouts and spots around the map that are odd, but besides like 2 bugs all of doomfists bugs are negative.

Zarya, Roadhog, Doomfist, Genji, Tracer, Widowmaker, Ana, and Lucio are the heroes I mainly play.

Doomfist just takes too much work to play. his abilities donā€™t work at all half the time and often leaves the player in an inescapable situation, not to mention he literally needs to be in peopleā€™s face to get any value. itā€™s one thing to have a few bugs and thatā€™s it but the fact he has over 50 that have never been addressed is just ridiculous and shows that the team at blizzard dont seem to care about the character or its fans.

Yeah, well what heā€™s not showing are things like how stable the connections to the game were. Simply dropping a few packets can make something look wrong. In netcode, there are some things that honor the client and some things that honor the server. Iā€™d have to do a ton of testing and research, but Iā€™m pretty sure OW has a mixture of both. Iā€™d say that any abilities that have knockback at all are going to always honor the server though, since they directly have an effect on the other player positions. There are also things like client side and server side interpolation. Hit boxes always lead or lag the actual character visual, in most FPS games.

Thatā€™s why so many of these supposed bugs are a 1/5 for reproducing.

Not saying the dude is wrong, but heā€™s probably not understanding the whole picture. A lot goes on inside the netcode blackbox.

Yes, doom needs bug fixes or at least buff with all his abilitites. But actually all diags and bounces are also bugs and they must be kept as an official techniques!

Iā€™m convinced thereā€™s nobody within Blizz that plays Doomfist at a high enough level where these bugs are common.

I started playing doomfist a while ago now and dying because of bugs is nowhere near fun. I get a lot of hate already for playing the character, so not being able to enjoy the game at least because of bugs is not fun at all. I really hope he can be fixed to the point where he is actually playable in a proper way.
