I thought buying retail would mean I get the game day 1 but it doesn't look like that's happening

How do you buy crates?

Also Fox steals my Overwatch avatar idea without telling me

There's an option to buy the crates in the lootcrate menu - 2 for $1.50, 24 for $20, and 50 for $40 are the three primary purchase options, but there are also options for $5, $10, and I think $30.

Also it's almost always better to buy games on PC online through their respective clients - there are always preload days or betas where you can install before release day hits so you won't be stuck in an install queue while the servers buckle under the thousands of tons of users popping in.

This is irrelevant if you're playing Mercy, but:

If you're good at aiming, aim for the head.
If you're bad at aiming, aim for center mass.

Aiming for the head means more potential damage, but because there's nothing above it that your stray bullets can fly into, a bad aim will end up missing more. So, it's a risk-reward thing.

And stay within your team's area of influence. This may not apply to the sniper but I haven't played her so don't know.

Its more fun to bodyslam them off cliffs with D.Va tho. No one seems to realize that running into them will knock them back and deal damage.

The game is insanely optimized. If your laptop can run any other PC game that isn't flash, chances are it can run Overwatch.

So I just ordered Overwatch for my PS4, and it'll arrive tomorrow. I've only got a slight idea of what I'm in for.

I like the look of a few of the characters, and I think it'll be interesting!

I played during the beta, and I'm definitely planning on getting Overwatch soon, after my wallet recovers from buying DOOM.

I usually mained Lucio and D.va, which was a really fun time. I recently heard that Lucio was nerfed though, and couldn't find anything on it. Is that true?

As far as anybody knows, it isn't. There's been no mention of changes since the Open beta, bar addding microtransactions for Loot crates.
