Installing Overwatch on the PS4 ps4 first contact

@ 90.61%, don’t know what to expect, except what I’ve picked up from the brief tutorial… here are class tips I found from the PSN blog
overwatch

Bastion

  • Don’t stay deployed in Sentry Configuration in one location for too long, or your enemy will adapt and gain the upper hand.

D.Va

  • If you use Self-Destruct after activating Boosters, D.Va ejects—but her mech continues moving forward before detonating.

Genji

  • Genji’s Deflect ability isn’t just for defense. Aim at enemies when using it to hit them with their own attacks.

Hanzo

  • Scatter Arrow can be devastating when aimed at the ground in front of your target.

Junkrat

  • Detonate a Concussion Mine at your feet to launch yourself into the air and reach higher areas. Don’t worry—you won’t take any damage from your own Mine.

Lúcio

  • Soundwave, the alternate fire mode of Lúcio’s Sonic Amplifier, is useful for keeping enemies away, but it can also be used to push enemies off of cliffs.

McCree

  • After stunning an enemy with your Flashbang, it’s much easier to hit them with the Peacekeeper’s alternate fire.

Mei

  • Placing an Ice Wall under you or your teammates will raise them up on top of the wall, giving them access to higher areas.

Mercy

  • Guardian Angel can save you, too—use it on a distant teammate to take yourself out of immediate danger from enemies.

Pharah

  • Concussive Blast can push enemies away and even knock them off cliffs, but you can also use it to push yourself away.

Reaper

  • While you pass through enemies when you’re in Wraith Form, you can still gather Health Packs and Soul Globes while using it.

Reinhardt

  • You can adjust the direction of your Charge as you rocket forward, making it so you can reach a target even if there’s not a straight path.

Roadhog

  • Chain Hook can interrupt many enemy abilities — including some ultimates.

Soldier: 76

  • Use Tactical Visor when your enemies are unaware of your location. They’ll have less time to seek cover or use defensive abilities.

Symmetra

  • The projectile from the Photon Projector’s alternate fire pierces through enemies as well as barriers such as Reinhardt’s Barrier Field, allowing it to hit multiple targets.

Torbjörn

  • Turrets must rotate to face their target before firing, so always try to build your turrets in the direction you’re expecting enemies to come from.

Tracer

  • If you Recall immediately after taking damage, you will regain your lost health.

Widowmaker

  • Venom Mines placed along the likely path of an attacker can warn you of an approaching threat.

Winston

  • Winston leaps in the direction of his targeting reticle when activating his Jump Pack. By looking up, he can jump nearly straight up and land where he took off.

Zarya

  • Graviton Surge can pull enemies away from a map objective, giving your team a chance to take the objective uncontested.

Zenyatta

  • Transcendence is a great counter to many enemy area-of-effect abilities, such as Zarya’s Graviton Surge.

  1. Overwatch has been pretty much the only game I’ve been playing; I’ve settled into playing Mercy and am nearly at a level to play in the ranked games 🙂

    It’s cool to be playing a FPS with a difference, and good to have a good Internet connection so I’m not suffering from lag!
