If I win 7 of 10 placement matches is that bad? Is a score of 1700 expected after that?
After getting that rank I got nonstop wins until 2100 and then hit my first loss.

If you win all 10 matches, it don't necessarily mean you'll be grand master. There's many factors.

I was under the impression that 2500 is average. Is that correct?
It could very well be that I'm terrible

Yeah, i guess you can say that 2500 sits right in the middle if this data is to be trusted

Started to post some of my environment work, today is ilios
Remember that our maps are made mostly by Mapcorians and they are a team effort![Blocked Image: https://cdna0.artstation.com/p/assets/image….jpg?1482206583]

I like the visual look of that level a lot that Minos posted. It's interesting to see how Overwatch maps are released detailed as this one is.
I know from personal experience that if this would have been a Valve map for Team Fortress 2, it would have been considered too busy for the art part and not accepted as is, so the players and the game is easier to read and comprehend.

In TF2, enemy team's players aren't highlighted with red outline and their names, which IMO makes a huge difference in noticing players.

Remember that our maps are made mostly by Mapcorians and they are a team effort!would it be too much to ask for some brief explanation on how texturing in overwatch works? do you use multiple UV sets? if so, what are they used for? Do you blend in details solely via vertex colors? do you fake AO in any way? how do those sweet normal mapped corners work, are they just a bunch of trim textures?
the teal building to the left in the pic above for example, is that dirt in the corners mapped in via separate UV set? stuff like that
it's probably really obvious but I'd still like to hear about it from someone way more experienced than me.

My favorite map, as far as details/visuals go, is Dorado. There's a fish near the map start, laying on a table, that flops if you shoot it.

I'm very upset to learn that Tracer is gay. That completely ruins my chances.

Unfortunately I can't go into details but you would be surprised how obvious everything is, and judging from your questions you already know the answers
One thing I can say is that we don't have any "esoteric" tech that other engines don't have. As for the corners, it's not much different than this http://polycount.com/discussion/175…rmal-map-decalsAlright, part 2, Lijiang Tower

Please spam away! Last two are my favourite.
With all the professional work that has been displayed on Mapcore recently, it makes me think that there should be a "professional pimpage thread" or something similar. For those that don't play Overwatch, it might be easy to miss work like this, especially after a few pages of new comments.
