I agree with you when it comes to the PC gamers. I’m in asia so most players here are Korean. So the only English words in chat that where “Fuck You”. Thats all i’ve been getting from the Koreans last weekend.
Not sure why, but the sound of a 12 year old constantly yammering away in any game puts me in a seething rage. No, wait; I know *exactly* why. Sorry Jim, these chuckleheads basically ruined this video for me.
Just a quick tip Jim, mercy can also damage boost allies with her alt fire. I don’t think I saw you use that, so I thought you might not know about it
I love how the comments are all damage-control by PC players, yet the video is still getting abnormally high dislikes. Just own it already like I do: PC community is just as shitty but in a different way.
I’ve got a question Sir Sterling, why do you play fps games on ps4? The Xbox one is traditionally the “fps console” due to its controller being better fine tuned for first person gameplay. Is it due to ps4’s share feature why you play on ps4?
Failed MMO leftovers, no wonder they had to pay so much to get the marketing muppets to the public. Review some VR stuff, that’s the only really interesting new toy on sale atm.
These days the video commentary sounds bored and non-committal. On Jimpressions basically every game gets ragged on, with barely any humour injected whatsoever and in the rare cases of grudgingly admitting something is decent, like Jalopy, the game isn’t even played properly. As for the “I play Overwatch on console instead of PC because of *you*, because of *you people*”, give it a rest dude. And then we see you bitching about the kids playing with you on this thing. Perhaps you should change your attitude.
The Rainbow Six Siege and Insurgency communities are pretty cool overall on PC. thankfully I dont tend to play games that have toxic communities (CS:GO, COD etc). Sadly I dont tend to play online on consoles because I don’t like being called the N word by a 12 yr old. Not that I want to say you’re wrong because I don’t think you are, just that we’ve clearly had polar opposite experiences! XD
I am sorry that you had issues on PC , for me I never had any issues or rude players and I play online in so many games sins 1999. and never encounted children online (thank akatosh)
I wish there was a way to mute kids , and teens… just in genral , dont know if its by pitch detection or account age (but 90% kids lie abut that) Just kids are immersion killing
Overwatch on PC is just dandy. Screaming 12yo’s? Not from what I’ve noticed, plus PC players use Teamspeak or a variant anyway. What a slip you made there.. maybe do a Jimquisition on it and say you’re sorry for saying something so stupid (maybe you can pull of making it look like it was a joke that misfired because no-one get it) and that the retarded rebuttal to Canadiancookie was also made in a flash of stupidity.Seriously though, why didn’t you play a few rounds on the PC? It’s free anyway during beta and extended to May 10, 10 AM PDT.
Guys leave Jim alone he is now aged so he can deal with children better now plus his bias view could come from a horrible experience on the pc. But i disagree with his reason of that the “community” we all know that no community is perfect and if he can not handle the pc community leave him be hes properly tired of it by now. Let us wish him a new life in the console world and hope that community doesn’t reject him over there as well.
Holy shit that last game… The Mercy only healed 672 damage and that was STILL almost 50% of the damage taken. What the actual fuck xD I’ve had games where I heal almost 12,000 and its still only 33% :/
Just FYI, the PC community has been great for the open beta so far. I’ve heard no one on a mic, (maybe voice chat is muted by default?) and can count on one hand the amount of stupid messages I’ve seen in the chat. 99% of players say nothing or give a simple “gg” at the end of a match.
Honestly speaking, judging by your captured footage, the console players (not all of you, of course) are far more obnoxious. How can you put up with those kids rambling the entire match?
It’s amazing how arrogant and up their own arses pc players are. I played on pc for a while and I ran into just as many kids online than I have on consoles. You guys can keep lying though and keep pretending like pc is this fucking holy grail for spiritually ascended people. What a bunch of knobs! -_-
I can’t believe it’s been nine years since TF2 came out, and I’m getting the same hankering for this game that I did back then for TF2. I don’t know if these games will have the same “internet-meme-victory-for-all-time-420” thing that TF2 had, but dat ass isn’t a bad start.
I have played from the start of the early access on pc. I have played for over 30 hours and I have never come across any pc elitists, and I non of the matches had little kids constantly talking. The worst I ever had was a couple of people every now and then getting really salty and calling hacks when someone is actually decent. From what I have seen the community is not anywhere near as bad as you would expect from a competitive game on pc.
as a pc gamer i can actually see the appeal of playing on console people seem more talkative on consoles but as you can hear in the mercy footage you get a lot of kids talking pointless stuff in the 200 matches i’ve played so far no one has ever spoken. occasionally people show bad sportsmanship after the match flaming posting “weak play” and the like it is a rather silent affair unless you seek out a group to play with.
Just a little Mercy tip I picked up from my time playing the beta: If there’s nobody that needs healing, make sure you’re damage buffing someone, preferably a hero that can spam off projectiles if there’s no fighting going on, so that you’re putting your time and presence to good use.
If you had such a bad experience with people telling you to play on PC, you’ve been listening to the wrong people. Because those who actually mean it will also tell you that, if you want to play on console, you can play on on console, that’s perfectly fine.
I’ve been subscribed a while now, and I love your work. But I feel like this video all I could hear was you breathing in constantly. Do you have a more sensitive mic? Maybe I’m just dwelling irrationally on a hitherto unthought qualm, but I felt the need to mention..
Playing the beta on PS4 over weekend I havent come across anyone using a mic at all in the voice channel like that kid. Overwatch has been great for me and Im definitely gonna buy it even though Im not too good. However when me and my buddy were playing we found quite a few people playing either as the same character or using characters in the same class thinking they can one man army stuff like its CoD which is frustrating beyond belief. On the other hand though when you have players who know what to do making a coordinated effort it is so fun and satisfying.
Jim says he plays on console to avoid unpleasant, elitist PC community; PC community reacts by being unpleasant and elitist. Like a self fulfilling prophecy.
Never had any problems playing Overwatch on PC myself. Not really fair to single the PC ‘community’ out when consoles are just as if not worse. At least in my experience Xbox live was awful for mic abuse and was full of kids.
I have played almost 100 hours during this beta and I never had someone going crazy by insulting everyone and not a single kid constantly speaking in his squiky annoying voice in the mic (which seems to be the case on console). People who used the chat on PC were using it to say “GG” at the end of the game or to discuss the composition (because someone needs to say something when 3 people want to be the stupid MLG-360-no-scoper of the game with Widowmaker which never works out), and the only times someone used the mic was to give a quick warning you wouldn’t have time to type (like “behind you” or “careful Widow is on the roof” etc).
If you can’t handle a couple of elitist pricks on PC but can handle hundreds of kids never shutting up good for you. But I’d rather deal with a hot headed elitist who brings something to the game (even if it comes with a couple of insults) than with annoying kids.
Toxicity is unfortunately very common in almost every multiplayer game. It’s the main reason I prefer single-player games. That said: I tried LoL once. …. never again.
Battleborn isn’t bad, it just still needs some work. More stable servers, better optimization, anything that can make it run more smoothly. If comparisons must be made, Battleborn would do well to take after Overwatch in terms of how smooth it runs and how solid the shooting feels and the impact each character can make on a match.
I definitely think Battleborn presents and taps into great potential, but I don’t think Gearbox has it as fully realized as it can be.
PS: Mercy is good, but I really like Lucio for healing, his speed buff and his ambient healing are really good.
The kids on the chat remind me of my time with COD:MW2 and BF3 on the 360, and to think that you pay to play online and then have to listen to that. Okay, you don’t HAVE to…to be fair. I much prefer having my own chat software and having a private group.
Great game though, loving the Beta and am sold on the game. Potentially GOTY for me, as I can’t see anyone topping it this year.
I’m level 23 on the open beta now so I have a little time played. I’ve never really met anyone all the toxic on pc yet, most seem nice. There’s definitely more compliments than swears in the chat. Only time I really see people getting annoyed is if the team comp is utter trash. I play on EU as well, so things might be different in the US.
I’m just glad the console version is solid, too. I’ll be playing on PC, mostly because my old rig still runs it quite well, but perhaps I’ll play it on PS4 at a discount later.
It’s fun watching console footage from Overwatch for the first time, it’s like all the characters had a night of hard partying and after that they go straight into battle.
Squeakers won’t be much of a problem when the game fully releases anyway, unless they have a rich mommy or daddy willing to spend 45$ more on top of the 50$ for the new CoD
I can understand what you mean about the PC Community at times. Too often I’ve seen people ask about controller support in a game and rather then give an actual answer the forum will just pile on the person with a barrage of “Shut the fuck up and use the mouse”. I get that mouse and keyboard is more accurate, but if someone doesn’t like playing that way just shut up and let them suck if you really think that’ll be the result.
can i just say that i am a little suprised, that you liked the game? i can’t even put my finger on why you shouldn’t like it, i just felt like it wasn’t your kind of game.
I had the same impression with overwatch I just don’t have the money to buy the full version and also I don’t play much multiplayer so idunno if the price and amount I would play hold up for me
surprised you had issue with the pc community in this game. they seem fantastic from what i can tell. we had a group for 5 hours where we all were playing nothing but one character. 12 man winston was so damn fun xD. that being said watching your video for abit the console dosnt look bad =o. a tad slow but still looks like it holds up pretty darn well
I’m truly torn as to whether I should buy it on pc or console. The better aiming doesnt make a difference to me. And I have friends who play on both. IDK what to do!!!!

that bastion play of the game stuggles so much with the controller xD
@~14min in
Thanks for reminding me why I decided not to play the free beta. That
VOIP… ugh.
allright Jim don’t get too emotional over ingame messages 😀 I personally
enjoy the trashtalking, just don’t take it seriously. To be able to very
easily cope with it, you have to keep only one rule in mind. If you happen
to play with trolly or bully like ppl who start picking on you, always lie.
Don’t do anything else, never answer anything that is true. Only lie. About
everything. It’s gonna silence them so quickly, and also it’s gonna detach
you emotionally from the responses you get.
I agree with you when it comes to the PC gamers. I’m in asia so most
players here are Korean. So the only English words in chat that where “Fuck
You”. Thats all i’ve been getting from the Koreans last weekend.
I’ve yet to hear anybody in the voice chat and I’ve played +10 hours
Not sure why, but the sound of a 12 year old constantly yammering away in
any game puts me in a seething rage. No, wait; I know *exactly* why. Sorry
Jim, these chuckleheads basically ruined this video for me.
lol because toxic 14 year olds are better than pc elitests.
Just a quick tip Jim, mercy can also damage boost allies with her alt fire.
I don’t think I saw you use that, so I thought you might not know about it
Wait til those chatting kids file a copyright claim for using their voices
:)
I love how the comments are all damage-control by PC players, yet the video
is still getting abnormally high dislikes. Just own it already like I do:
PC community is just as shitty but in a different way.
The Grim Reaper looking dude…. you mean Reaper ? xD
Your laid back lets play style is refreshing af
I’ve got a question Sir Sterling, why do you play fps games on ps4? The
Xbox one is traditionally the “fps console” due to its controller being
better fine tuned for first person gameplay. Is it due to ps4’s share
feature why you play on ps4?
2:46 But how ultimate is ultimate?
Failed MMO leftovers, no wonder they had to pay so much to get the
marketing muppets to the public. Review some VR stuff, that’s the only
really interesting new toy on sale atm.
These days the video commentary sounds bored and non-committal. On
Jimpressions basically every game gets ragged on, with barely any humour
injected whatsoever and in the rare cases of grudgingly admitting something
is decent, like Jalopy, the game isn’t even played properly. As for the “I
play Overwatch on console instead of PC because of *you*, because of *you
people*”, give it a rest dude. And then we see you bitching about the kids
playing with you on this thing. Perhaps you should change your attitude.
Fps on console. Come on.
Don’t you mean Team Fortress 2 in not shitty?
The Rainbow Six Siege and Insurgency communities are pretty cool overall on
PC. thankfully I dont tend to play games that have toxic communities
(CS:GO, COD etc).
Sadly I dont tend to play online on consoles because I don’t like being
called the N word by a 12 yr old.
Not that I want to say you’re wrong because I don’t think you are, just
that we’ve clearly had polar opposite experiences! XD
This looks brilliant, partially because it looks *so much* like TF2
Don’t like playing on PC competitive games cause of the hardcoreness? Well
then you better GIT GUD SUN.
I am sorry that you had issues on PC , for me I never had any issues or
rude players and I play online in so many games sins 1999. and never
encounted children online (thank akatosh)
I wish there was a way to mute kids , and teens… just in genral , dont
know if its by pitch detection or account age (but 90% kids lie abut that)
Just kids are immersion killing
Overwatch on PC is just dandy. Screaming 12yo’s? Not from what I’ve
noticed, plus PC players use Teamspeak or a variant anyway. What a slip you

didn’t you play a few rounds on the PC? It’s free anyway during beta and

Team Fortress 3 is looking pretty dull, I think I’ll give this one a pass.
“Because otherwise, i look like a stupid oopid”
Thank god for you, Jim
In the news: Jim Sterling gets exposed to the competitive pvp community 😛
But seriously, the overwatch community has been quite nice so far, in my
experience
when your a retard and play a fps with a controller >->
Roadhog is Pudge :)
Guys leave Jim alone he is now aged so he can deal with children better now
plus his bias view could come from a horrible experience on the pc. But i

(17:30) There’s a separate option in the menu to turn Mic’s off, it’s
easily overlooked.
There’s a typo in the title. Shouldn’t it be ‘that’ instead of ‘what’?
It’s amazing how arrogant and up their own arses pc players are. I played

Premade kid raid?
I can’t see this being good on a console
I think the world would be a better place, if everyone had a bit of Tracers
ass in his/her life.

I played the beta on the PC and Xbox One. I’m sorry, but there’s NO WAY
I’ll buy this on console. It’s so freakin’ slow on console.
I’ve been subscribed a while now, and I love your work. But I feel like
this video all I could hear was you breathing in constantly. Do you have a
more sensitive mic? Maybe I’m just dwelling irrationally on a hitherto
unthought qualm, but I felt the need to mention..
First gameplay I’ve seen from console and all I hear is screeching brats.
Who would have thought.
YAY Tracers arse :D
I rather play with elitists than play with a bunch of screaming kids
PC nerds super angry this one. Could have one of those mcdonalds french fry
parties with all of this salt.
I’m a console player, and I always offer bad players advice on how to play
better.
U peasant
no one talks at all on pc or xbox, but mainly because no one is in the
voice channel.
“I play competitive games on consoles for the community”
20 seconds later
“ignore the children in the background”
Don’t change Jim.
Upset the PC crowd there.
That could be a play on words.
Playing the beta on PS4 over weekend I havent come across anyone using a
mic at all in the voice channel like that kid. Overwatch has been great for

that’s why I want to cosplay as you Jim

Also : controller aim <<<<<<<<<<<<< mouse aim
FPS with a controller?! you’re a mad man!
Toxicity is unfortunately very common in almost every multiplayer game.
It’s the main reason I prefer single-player games. That said: I tried LoL

Can the ‘PC Masterrace’ stop whining about their deity being disrespected?

Idk how you can play this with a controller
get gud scrub
It’s fun watching console footage from Overwatch for the first time, it’s
like all the characters had a night of hard partying and after that they go
straight into battle.
Christ are you playing with 4 year olds?
Squeakers won’t be much of a problem when the game fully releases anyway,
unless they have a rich mommy or daddy willing to spend 45$ more on top of
the 50$ for the new CoD
I can understand what you mean about the PC Community at times. Too often
I’ve seen people ask about controller support in a game and rather then
give an actual answer the forum will just pile on the person with a barrage
of “Shut the fuck up and use the mouse”. I get that mouse and keyboard is
more accurate, but if someone doesn’t like playing that way just shut up
and let them suck if you really think that’ll be the result.
So should i fuck off the pc version then?I can not be doing with little
ball bags winding me up.
omg, I want a black suit and red tie skin for roadhog so much now. make it
happen blizzard.
“Jim Sterling called the PC community shit!? I should prove him wrong by
being an asshole in the comment section!”
So wait you’re telling me Tracers booty has no impact on the game play at
all!! I feel personally cheated.
can i just say that i am a little suprised, that you liked the game? i
can’t even put my finger on why you shouldn’t like it, i just felt like it
wasn’t your kind of game.
I bet you would get much more hate mail if you were talking thrash about
consoles.
So glad almost no one uses voice chat on PC heh.
Your aim is shit.
Aren’t you happy the kids are enjoying a good game?
PC faithful. Come at me bro!
I had the same impression with overwatch I just don’t have the money to
buy the full version and also I don’t play much multiplayer so idunno if
the price and amount I would play hold up for me
Does this game not have a mute option?
surprised you had issue with the pc community in this game. they seem
fantastic from what i can tell. we had a group for 5 hours where we all
were playing nothing but one character. 12 man winston was so damn fun xD.
that being said watching your video for abit the console dosnt look bad =o.
a tad slow but still looks like it holds up pretty darn well
also, reaper is the faggiest class out there for noobs
Man many people sure have some insecurity issues about their preferred
gaming platform
Mercy is best. Also fuck the haters on PC Jim. I love you. <3
I’m truly torn as to whether I should buy it on pc or console.
The better aiming doesnt make a difference to me. And I have friends who
play on both. IDK what to do!!!!
but if you don’t play on PC how are you meant to see tracer’s arse at
1200FPS?
WOW… audio…instamute really…I cannot deal with hyperactive kid in the
chat.
fuck the console bullshit ,its for people who cant afford a pc
I actually liked this game a LOT.
But I’m a TF2 fan, so it’s pretty obvious I’d like Overwatch, it’s clearly
the biggest inspiration, even if OW has the MOBA skil system, etc.
After playing 54 matches, I started to believe balance is actually pretty
fine tuned, you just have to accept each character has a role and there are
some hard counters.
Can’t you just mute the voice chat on both pc and consoles?
is this on ps4? looks sooooo slow moving and aiming compared to playing on
mouse and keyboard
I play LoL usually so its nice to play a game where I can lose whilst
having fun and have a bad game without being told to kill myself
