Just got back from trying OW on my buddies PC my aim was uh lets just say a work in progress on PC anyways I wanted to point out some of the biggest observations I got from playing on PC.
PC is just faster in general honestly the match flow is just so much better on PC
Most support mains on PC are 100x better then Console supports. I feel like the biggest reason as to why is because console has a ton and I mean a ton of carried Mercy one tricks and Moira OTPs as well it’s honestly embarrassing. Also there are players on console who unironically think Lucio is better then Kiriko which is a joke that writes itself. Literally have been asked to switch to Lucio as a Kiriko main on console, I guess console community is just dumb.
PC community is much more competitive, understandable point tbh.
Console community is 100x more toxic and it’s because no one and I mean no one uses the report feautre
Cheaters are more annoying on PC by far lol, but way less cheaters on PC then on console since you don’t get banned for using adapters on console.
META is the same overall, this has honestly been a long time misconception that console meta is completely different tho.
This is absolutely true; however, it is, like many things Overwatch related, not exclusive to the console community. A lot of Overwatch players are dumb regardless of their platform of choice.
Disagree. I find the opposite to be true. Console Supports are generally positioned better.
You do realize that there’s a massive portion of the playerbase (PC and console) that considers Moira to be good? Dumb takes aren’t exclusive to console.
It’s really not. PC has more creative insults though.
The primary difference between PC and console is the mechanical difference between a controller and a mouse. Console players play differently because they’re used to people playing on a controller and not being able to immediately flick to them. As a console player that swapped to PC, it’s very disorienting, simply because people will hit shots that you wouldn’t reasonably expect someone to make on a console.
I play console and you’ll be surprised how much people trash talk in text while sitting in spawn. Too scared to use a mic tho and communicate with the team. At the old age of 26 I can tell you back in my day an Xbox 360 came with a headset and everyone used it, I remember those Halo 3 and Modern Warfare 2 lobbies as a wee 12yr old lad.
ok. mic interaction can be distracting if conflict is involved. text should be the 1st go to, for confrontation, in many cases, or else, you’ll distract your entire team. plus, text prevents nonsense shouting matches. when done properly, since text typically just includes the facts of the matter. verbal = shout shows sometimes. whereas reading the validity of opposing perspectives, precludes verbal bitter banter, usually.
26 is still young. gaming industry devs are 30-60 years old some in 20’s also surely.
Console players have a different way of playing. Console play is mostly casual, it always was and always will be.
I could play OW2 on PC, but I don‘t want to, because OW2 is a terrible game by now anyway and not worth taking seriously.
Overwatch on console has a different culture than PC and I‘m so tired of these stupid comparisons, that are only there to make console players look like idiots to push the ego of the self declared PC Master Race with the mind of a toddler.
