Overwatch players rejoice: Hook 2.0 is awesome
-
I mostly play Roadhog and while I do agree that the Hook needed to be fixed, this sucks. I'm glad they're fixing it with the next PTR patch
-
11 RepliesNO NONONONO! Does this mean i need to learn to play a real hero that requires skill?
-
Well, maybe Hook 2.5 will be awesome!
-
15 RepliesThis game is trash. The biggest waste of money ever.

7 RepliesLooks like they're going about it well, not a hog main so I'm not sure how much it'll effect their game, I usually only play the characters (besides when support is needed) that can save themselves from the hook (tracer, mei, reaper etc.) Personally i think if the hook becomes too sensitive to angles and corners it will be unviable and see a decline in the higher tier of comp. [spoiler]i have a feeling the zarya meta will be strong with this update[/spoiler]

That's the end of Roadhog, then.

The new PTR stuff looks great. The hook fix really needed to happen, plus, I can't wait to finally be able to equip more than one emote!

1 ReplyIs this patch out on console?

Edited by SeneschalGrigori: 1/7/2017 6:02:14 PMLooks like they won't be adding hook 2.0 yet due to issues with it breaking when it shouldn't be. They will also be possibly adding a 'slow' mechanic when you get hooked so you can't jump out of LoS

1 ReplyAppears the patch may need some tweaks. It's breaking the moment any body part gets out of line of sight. Including something like an ankle https://www.reddit.com/r/Competitiveoverwatch/comments/5m9zf7/hook_20_opinions/
-
Not a huge fan of it, honestly. I agree that it needed some changes but this is too much.
-
As a hog main this triggers me I've always taken great pride in my ability to hook people even when I can't see them.
-
6 RepliesOnly thing I want to see next is a small delay between time he can fire after hooking the target. Because of now it's a ohk if it lands. Given its harder to land but it would give people with a 1 button I'm out ability to have, or have it be a 2 shot because the hog didn't aim at the head. [spoiler]I say this because he can 1 shot all below 300hp with the hook. Even Reaper, the very person who is supposed to counter him.[/spoiler]

3 RepliesI saw times where the chain broke around walls and times where it DIDNT if you looked closely. I see the fix but it doesnt seem to work 100% of the time. It seems to have a window where it breaks and when it pulls through walls.
-
16 RepliesWhat else was in the patch?
-
I yoinked a Genji through a wall yesterday. This update is probably good.
-
17 RepliesOnly foreseeable problem is the fact that even with the tiniest barrier is encountered after a target is hooked and audio cues are activated it cancels. I simultaneously think that Blizzard did well and screwed the hook. At least we will see more Zarya in the Meta and as a Zarya main thats good news.
