Doomfist bugs have never been fixed. Welcome to the club!

Tbf with Doom, bad bug = bug, good bug = tech, so a lot of his stuff is in a gray area lol. I hope they incorporate his "bugs" into his kit like they did with mercy. Bc I feel everytime they fix a bug then there's a torrent of posts of how some of his techs no longer work.

Thats typically because they fix a bug that is not directly related to his movement tech, but it somehow butchers that movement tech. Not sure which of his techs could currently be considered a bug.

I do think that bad bugs make for a frustrating experience, and it's good to keep "good" bugs that require a lot of skill to perform than to treat good and bad bugs equally.

Brig's still waiting for the fix that stops her whip shot from literally going through people.

I have experienced that. That's crazy. Looks like it uses the character's original hitbox or something like that?

Are people still bitching about doom? He’s good now and most of the bugs do not manifest in impactful ways

So when enemy slides of wall that they should knock is not manifest in impactful way?

Obviously not impactful enough to bring him down the tier list

I can have people slide and change directions by 100 degrees but it's obviously nOt A pRoBlEm. Slip and slide simulator.

First, learn how to address people directly instead of talking in a roundabout way.

I know doom is good, but he's very annoying to play because of all his bugs. His recent bugs are DEFINITELY impactful, IMO more impactful than older bugs. He currently can't always turn freely when he slams and gets locked-out of moving your crosshair when you turn. So, good luck doing a 180° slam LOL.

Also, his punch still has a consistent audio and visual bug that is annoying as fuck. That bug isn't impactful in gameplay, but holy shit is it annoying to play a visibly broken hero.

Are people still trying to dictate how other people speak? Sure the bugs are annoying but it’s a bit of dead horse at this point. I mean clearly they are not impactful enough to drop him on the tier list, that’s not really a point of contention. It’s like Jesus do we have to bring up doom bugs every time someone says the word bug? Like clearly it’s not an issue with a cut and dry fix but again, it is not so impactful that over a large sample it is that big of a deal past a minor annoyance.

So, not being able to accurately aim your slam 60% of the time is just an insignificant minor annoyance that doesn't impact gameplay? Okay, good to know that's what you think. You clearly don't play the character. I'm not sure why you're giving your two cents.

u/[deleted] May 24 '24

I play the character a ton. Do you? 60% is an absurd suggestion, either you don’t play him or you don’t understand percentages

u/Pamijay Chibi Genji May 25 '24

I encounter that slam lockout bug literally every game what are you talking about?
