Hey,
So I’m connecting from South Africa and so I’m at 200ms+ pretty much all the time (no, NA realms aren’t faster), but I’ll be upgrading to fiber soon which may help though I don’t know by how much.
I love the game and would like to play more often, but I feel like the one legged idiot with an arm tied behind his back for my team, and I’d like to do better, but I don’t know how.
I’m already spending a lot of time on support and tank type characters, Lucio, Mercy, Reinhardt, D.Va and for DPS I play hitscans more often than not; Soldier, Reaper, Tracer, but my accuracy sits at +/- 20% or lower so I’m not very useful there.
This causes frustration on top of the fact that most of the time the enemy is a well oiled engine of death and destruction and my team is like, “Hurr durr I kern pleh Erverwerch!” Reinhardt, after his shield got melted at the doorway on attack in Hanamura, decides the best thing to do is charge, followed quickly after Rein’s death by Genji who thinks he can 1v6. This tilts me like you wouldn’t believe and in addition to tips on how to compensate for my ping, I’d like some non-tilting tips.
Bottom line is that I’m having a hard time, don’t find the game to be much fun anymore, looking for advice that could help change that so I can get back into it.
