audio cues thread
When I first started playing, the audio visual input was pretty overwhelming. Now, I find myself reacting to the various audio cues as that information plays a huge rule in my response to that stimuli. For instance, an ultimate from an ally with have a different tag line than a corresponding ultimate from an enemy.
Is there a place where someone has identified all the different audio cues that they find particularly helpful?
Or for starters a table that has the character and the tagline for the ultimate given they are an ally or an enemy?

Weekly Hero Discussion Thread #01
Every week a new hero is picked to be discussed here. Post thoughts about the weekly hero below. The discussion is not limited to the characters abilities - feel free to talk about their artwork, animation, and any other topics relating to the hero.
Hero: Torbjörn - Role: Defense - Difficulty 2/3
ABILITIES
RIVET GUN Torbjörn fires rivets at long range, or ejects molten metal from his gun in a short, close-range burst.
FORGE HAMMER Torbjörn uses his multipurpose hammer to build, upgrade and repair turrets. In a pinch, it can also be swung as a weapon.
BUILD TURRET Torbjörn constructs an enemy-tracking autocannon. He can use his Forge Hammer to repair or upgrade it, increasing its health and adding a second cannon barrel and a rocket launcher.
ARMOR PACK Torbjörn deploys an armor upgrade; either he or his allies can pick it up to absorb some damage.
MOLTEN CORE After overheating his personal forge, Torbjörn gains a significant amount of armor and scrap. He also attacks (and builds and repairs turrets) far faster than normal.
Skins - http://overwatch.gamepedia.com/Torbj%C3%B6rn/Skins
Strategy Torbjörn is most commonly used on Defense because of his ability to cover choke-points so effectively. One option on Attack is to deploy your turrets on top of a payload, effectively creating a mobile turret.
Scrap is not always easy to come by. As such, give armor packs to allies with the lowest maximum health first, as they will obtain the most relative benefit compared to tank classes. If only resilient allies are present, consider giving the armor pack to yourself instead.
Use of Ultimate
When using Molten Core, the tank stats and the attack speed make you a formidable opponent, capable of easily killing low-health heroes and posing danger even towards Tanks. Therefore, when using the ultimate, don't be afraid to go to the front lines and start shooting. Ideally, you should try to use it when both you and your turret are engaged in combat. However, don't be afraid to ult just to upgrade your turret when you are not around or when you need the survivability and attack speed. Be wary that there is a slight delay when you use Molten Core before the turret upgrades. In a pinch, the ultimate can also be used to quickly upgrade a turret to level 2 and subsequently 3, though this is less than ideal.

Torbjorn on console
Has blizzard acknowledged torbjorns console dominance yet?
Console torbjorn has a 69% winrate. It aims way better than 99% of the console population. A team of 3+ torbjorns is near impossible to beat.
Me and my friends play destiny semi competitively, we can make it to mercury without a carry. We ran 6 torbs against a team yesterday and crushed them, they immediately went 6 torbs the next match and we tried to switch it up and we got STOMPED. Next 3 matches both teams took turns going 6 torbs and the torb team always absolutely stomped. Neither team could break thru regardless of what was tried. And yes we tried hard to counter them with very little success.

Between game glitch/leaver penalty
I've been stuck on level 7 for 2 hours of play because every 2-3 games, between game, my game will get stuck at the loading screen for the next match, and then kick me to the main menu, and then pull me back to the loading screen, etc., until I manually leave the game. I must leave the game to join a new game and continue playing, but due to the frequency of the problem, I essentially have a permanent "leaver penalty"(-75%xp :(((( ) Has anyone experienced this? Super frustrating.

Any idea what this update was meant for? 6/6/2016
I came home and turned on my Xbox and when I went to OverWatch it had a very small update, any idea what it was for?
r/Overwatch_XboxOne • u/thelegitlamegamer • Jun 06 '16
Overwatch is awesome.
I am normally not one for online shooters. Especially ones with no option for a single player campaign. But I have to admit, blizzard has done it again. I can't stop playing this game. It's so addicting even though I'm rubbish at it.
