It makes me really happy.
Balance
I just find it quite interesting that he can now kill you before the stun animation ends.
Yet, people are complaining about Sombra’s Hack.
No one likes having their toys away, but this McCree buff is like having that one kid throwing his toys at us with lightning speed.
getting sent straight to base> hacked for 6 seconds and getting killed only after it ends leading to 10 seconds of feed + another 7 to spawn (its a joke btw)
I just think in matter of time people are going complain about McCree for the exact same reason why they are complaining about Sombra, except McCree has the kit to kill and secure the kill, while Sombra needs assistance from her team.
That is why the duration for McCree is shorter, due to his kit… however the duration for Sombra is longer due to her kit.
He could do this anyway, and people called him McRightClick
How well I suppose.
Just don’t forget that even if he have ths kill and damage potential now his utility isn’t even half of the one Sombra provides to her team with hacks and emp.
Now he doesn’t even have to fan the hammer, which is good in terms of no more McRightClick, but with these changes, he can double click before the animation even ends.
I just feel like people are going realize this even more so with these changes and going complain about him along with Widow and Sombra.
You get to be a tank buster, you get to be a tank buster, everybody gets to be a tank buster!
Yeah, but McCree already has a kill confirmed method of using stun FtH or stun headshot + body. There was no need for a fire rate buff. They could keep the reduce recoil to help with aim, but faster bullets is something else.
Securing a kill is always going be better than hacking a target for 6 seconds.
That is what I am thinking, I feel like it the same issue that people had with Hanzo when he got his rate of fire buff along with Rapid Arrow, and now people are complain about Sombra due to her Hack being “too fast” along with EMP, which I can understand… since I didn’t know how it cast time was 0.18 second rather than 0.50 seconds.
Not necessarily.
Hacking someone like Rein or Orisa can severely hamper more than just one person and can lead to a big push.
What if you hack a Rein for 6 seconds and your Mccree’s machine gun can secure kills of people you’re dealing damage to huh? hack is a necessary evil to make heroes like him work
It just depends on the scenario, but in most situation, securing that kill on that per-say on Reinhardt or even Orisa, well that can severely hamper the whole team as a whole just as much as hacking, but the fight is now a 5v6.
With Sombra, yes, the duration does sucks, but the fight is still a 6v6, as that hacked hero can still “somewhat” contribute in a sense.
I’ll have to see it in action, still waiting for the download to finish, but I feel like you people are exaggerating like you do with everything in this game.
He still seems really bad though. Now he’s just Spammy McCree, which looks and sounds ridiculous.
Maybe more annoying but not really better.
Sombra’s Hack is definitely an enabler, none is denying that.
I am just saying in that scenario, yes that works.
as Sombra hack can enable and help the hero to secure the kill, but securing the kill does nothing Sombra to hack that hero if that individual is dead before the Sombra have time to even hack.
A dead enemy can’t shoot, use any of his or her abilities, can’t gain ultimate charge, move etc.
However, a hacked enemy just can’t use his or her abilities, but like I said, the duration indeed does sucks as in this game everything is revolved around time, as a single seconds can be the differences between winning a match or not.
