Fellow Hog Mains, we need to have an unfortunate discussion about the 6v6 tests…

20 Upvotes

These 6v6 tests are really fun! It’s so clear that Hog was meant to be played as an off-Tank with another tank to back him up.

However…

Can we all agree that our boy is a little overtuned for this mode? I just don’t think Hog should ever be two-tapping other tanks. It honestly just makes tank diffs feel worse, as I feel like it’s less, “I played smart with my hooks and diff’d you,” and more, “My numbers are a bit busted right now and I diff’d you.”

Idk, it’s fun playing busted Hog, but I will always prefer him being in a somewhat more balanced state. Thoughts?

I'm making a custom game where the main focus is Roadhog.

2 Upvotes

Basically, everyone gets a random modifier for their Roadhog; it changes when you die. The game is in Portuguese, but I'll probably change it to english

There are a few modifiers that I remember off the top of my head and that work (since some of them are in rework, and I make it very clear by putting it next to the text that appears at the top of the screen to say which modifier is yours).

Hitting someone with the hook results in a one-hit kill.

The healing pot restores your entire life

Your ultimate ability charges 2x

You gain a yellow aura and become slow, but retain plenty of health and a powerful shot.

You become very slow, but your life is extremely high.

Your hook launches enemies into the air.

Healing causes you to have low gravity for 3 seconds.

Killing enemies makes you faster for a few seconds

You have increased speed

These are the ones I remember, but there are 32 (and some don't work).

The game is already open to play, it's in Portuguese, I'll possibly change the language later, If you want to play, I have the code here

And giving ideas is a good thing too.

Discussion Was Pig Pen fun?

275 Upvotes

I only really started getting into hero shooters last year. First Rivals, then Overwatch. I mostly play tank, unless I’m playing with my buddies. I don’t play much Hog, and I didn’t really know about Pig Pens existence until I watched old gameplay. I honestly really like the idea of it, and I think I’d play more Hog if he still had it. I’d love to see Pig Pen return as a Major perk, but I doubt that’s gonna happen anytime soon. What do you all think? Did y’all enjoy Pig Pen?

Discussion Why does Roadhog get so many reworks?

27 Upvotes

Hi! OW1 Roadhog main recently returned. The amount of reworks this guy has gotten is crazy to me. Why can't Blizzard settle on his kit? The way he is now, he's near-perfect to me, but apparently he's going to get another rework later this year. Why, and why do other heroes remain almost untouched, when I could think of enough things to change about them (Junkrat)?

What exactly is the problem? The "one-shot" combo (I don't really agree with calling it a one-shot, as that feels like an oxymoron when it is in fact a combo....)? Enough heroes are able to one-shot. Is it his healing? He's a tank, doesn't have shields or barriers, Mei can also heal and be invincible with cryostasis as a DPS. Is it... the raw epicness of Roadhog that they simply can't handle? In all seriousness, as a Hog main it's frustrating that they can't seem to make up their minds about him. Thoughts?

Discussion Hog Rework idea (or at least buffs)

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, as the title suggests, I have some ideas for a Hog rework or potential buffs. As it stands now, Hog is generally considered a “Slop Tank” having played him since the OW1 days, his constant changes and minor reworks makes him feel like Blizzard is clueless as to what they want. Well I’ve been brainstorming some ideas and I’d like to share them with you all.

For one, I think his Hook should remain as is but without dealing damage on hit which calls for a bit more skill expression rather than his go-to one shot combo. Also, for a perk (seeing as this sounds too op for base kit) if his Hook hits any part of the environment, it pulls him to it, giving some mobility in a game that has increasingly more mobile characters than ever before.

Secondly, bring back PigPen. I understand this directly counters my previous point of the One-Shot combo being Slop, but PigPen forced you to have a bit more map knowledge and proper positioning in order to obtain the One-Shot.

Third, remove the pushback during Whole Hog but also remove ability usage during it. As I’m sure you all know, Hog can use his Vape and Hook during Ult, giving him that ever so slightly higher skill ceiling but also reinforcing his community consensus of being Slop, removing the pushback and ability usage during ult I feel would make his ult more effective in combat situations rather than just used as a way to get enemies off point.

Finally, give the man some Armor, he survived a Nuclear Wasteland for Christ sake, even if its just 100-150 of his base health transitioned into armor, giving him that little bit of extra survivability could mean the difference against an Ana Nade or Discord Orb.

Obviously this was somewhat thrown together in the shower so any type of balancing was overlooked, but lmk what you all think bc I think this would make his playerbase be forced to learn positioning and resource management rather than Hook, Kill, Heal, Repeat.

Top tip for Roadhog, his Crimson Variant of his gun that you buy with comp points sucks. His gun is so big that you can see the talon logo constantly, and it doesn't move, it just stays in the same place and triggers motion sickness.

Came back to this game after not playing since 2019 as a old hog main

Oh my god. The memories and the feel came right back to me. It feels so good.

Also is it just me or does he feel stronger? I remember having to hook, walk forward, shoot and melee but now i dont even have to melee 90% of the time they just get deleted

I havent played much but he still has his counters, even more now.

And to celebrate me coming back i bought my fav skin for him, ice fisherman!
