Can someone explain how TF2 Medic's gameplay is based but OverWatch's Mercy is for troons?
>>
They are both troon coded. Med is just a bit harder because he has to do autistic shit like damage surfing.
>>
>>750182043
Mercy is well and truly helpless with her dinky little pistol, the enemy has to be playing retarded to die to that (assuming it's not just the last chip damage that tags them).
Meanwhile medic just crit saws your face off, and everyone bows to him because no one else can do his job. Also has a proactive ability with uber instead of a reactive.
Crusader Crossbow also requires actual aiming. Mercy is also literally tied to others for her mobility and is even more fragile and immobile by herself.
>>
>>750182043
Because TF2's gameplay is better, so the Medic experience is better
>>
>>750182043
the gameplay for both of them is just watching your team play the game, which is really gay. zenyatta was the only based support in any of these games
>>
Played a bit of Mercy when OW went free and she's but a W+M1 healer with the occasional space bar press.
It's evident that she was designed for women as pockets to their Reinhardt maining bfs or something of this nature. Her pistol is a peashooter so fighting back is not advisable by the game itself.
Meanwhile Medic can be a damage dealing healer while he's not curing or kritzing. He's not just a moving dispenser if played well.

Character design wise both of them are giga badass. Left is a nazi mad doktor chad who makes you immortal and right is an angelic nurse doctor stacy who flies in skies and resurrects people also her Halloween outfit is just classic. Good work on artists.
Gameplay wise tho they are both gay. Overpowered support chars that make game revolve around them and take no skill to play. They literally sit behind their team and farm their overpowered ults (kinda fixed with ow mercy but tf2 medic is still incredibly op in this regard.) But most importantly they are incredibly easy and boring to play. Not easy as in soldier or demo, easy as in you just hold mouse 1 and don't over extend and die. Actual bitch characters by gameplay design perspective. Characters meant for actual women to contribute in sweaty fps games. Medic is so fucking broken medic count is the single most deciding factor who wins games be it in pubs or comp if it didn't have class limits.

0 skill support classes need to fuck off in general. Need more stuff like Ana (sniper healer) instead.

found the larping nigger
tf2 medic sits behind his team all safe and sound and he can't fight back at all.
meanwhile ow supports even fucking mercy hit like brick with their weapons and are constantly attacked by tracers and genjis and what not because flanking is actually a thing in that game unlike tf2 with overpowered defense classes dominating the game and requiring a bajillion weapon and class bans to allow flankers opportunity to make plays.

as far as I remember, the medic doesn't have a melee weapon that heals on hit
>>

>posts the slow ass weapon that takes 4 shots to kill a scout at close range
retard
meanwhile mercy kills tracer with 5 headshots from her "peashooter"
and she is considered the support with worst self defense
fuck out of here secondary

Medic is high test because:
>Can hard carry an entire team more than any other class
>Huge difference between bad medics and good medics, good medic heals 3x as much and styles on everybody
>Potential for huge plays like ubersaw kills, turning bad spies into an entire game/point loss
>Based fucking long range crossbow heals (high skill)
As for mercy I have no idea, never played Overshit.
>>
>>750182307
Medics are way easier to shoot than Mercies, they are much easier slower targets with zero mobility, meanwhile Mercy is a skinny bitch who zips across the room every two seconds
>>
>>750183797
Oh and she fills her own health back up much faster than Medic can, you lose her from your crosshairs for a moment and when you see her again she's back at full
>>
>>750183845
I never lose sight of Mercy's tight ass
>>
>>750182043
Tf2 players always hype up there game to own other games.
>>
>>750183797
>>750183845
Yes, I was talking about all her mobility is dependent purely on team mates, not saying Medic has more mobility.

Mercy is a healbot while Medic is a shadow priest.

Tf2 is for men

One's a combat medic with several different playstyles. The other is pure support that's useless alone

Mercy has a better ass.
>>

because Doktor is German and a man. No normal man wants to play as a woman AND a healer.

The only cool healers are the one that keep themselves and their teammates alive indefinitely while also being able to gun down the enemy team with impunity.

who?!

Because tf2 medic makes babies and compniggers cry ultra fucking hard
Dont believe me? pocket a phlogger. Or kritz a demo. Wanna really push it further? Vaxx maxx. Im not even shooting anyone and the whole server hates me already lol

>>750182043
Mercy is completely worthless without her team and she also takes no skill to play well. If you've played her for 10min you've played her for 1000 hours.

People underestimate Medic all the time in combat, he has broad healing/uber options, rewards highly-skilled gameplay and even has the Crossbow for sick trickshots. All these things make him actually fun to play, and his character design is the icing on the cake. Moderately-unhinged Nazi doctor psychopath that no game developer could get away with today.
>>
>>750183797
>Medics are way easier to shoot than Mercies
You've never seen a Scout main play Medic have you?
Cunts are impossible to hit and his cape adds to the distraction and difficult-to-see-ness
>>
Tf2's movement feels inherently less floaty than Overwatch, so walking around as a healbot feels better. On top of that, Medic's Crossbow is incredibly fun, skilful and rewarding to use, he's one of the better classes at meleeing thanks to his speed, health & how crits work and his ubercharge is many times more impactful than Mercy's ult since it's the only "Ult" in the entire game
>>
>>750183089
>that takes 4 shots to kill a scout at close range
Xbow 2shots any light class.
With good aim, you can land 2 shots on an approaching power class at mid-range forcing them to make a very serious decision of commit and probably die, or run and not feed.
I also outsnipe snipers regularly with it too. Someone who knows how to dodge can usually speedtank 2-3 typical pub-level snipers without much trouble.
>>
>>750185539
Seems legit. And you fuck my sister too I reckon.
I get more kills from my random ubersaw crits than medic primaries. Because they suck against players who didn't install yesterday.
>>
The crossbow is the single most fun weapon ever given to a healer, simple as that
You get to feel that fuzzy feeling of being a support while also getting to flex your aim by triaging allies mid combat and stealing their kills
>>
>>750182043
Why do game developers like to imply German übermensch are the best healers in the world?
>>
>>750182043
ok so, medic came before troons were a significant thing. Mercy is less troons and more a useless woman character. Arguably, mercy takes slightly more skill to play in OW than medic does in TF2, but only just. There shouldn't be a big issue now, since OW is dead, but the main gripe is women playing handheld roles with zero player skill involved.
>>
>>750182043
In terms of mechanics? Medic can actually kill people for one. Playing Mercy is like playing medic solely with the medigun and only troons with their masochistic tendencies can stomach that shit.
>>
>>750184641

crit heals technically give you something to do without the crossbow
it ain't much, but it's something

medic is certainly better than mercy, he does damage. but he's still by far the worst class in tf2. the best way to do healers in games is shit like zenyatta in OW. medics crossbow isn't too bad though.
