[quote]So, my friend bought me Overwatch for my birthday and I know its pretty cool game but I am confused about some things and am turning on you veterans. 1. What is difference between Competitive and Quick play? 2. What are the gamemodes? 3. How to progress in game and what are rewards? 4. Can I play PvP PvAI and AIvAI? 5. How to best combine teams? Thanks for all your anwers! [spoiler]6. Is R34 for OW good?[/spoiler][/quote] 1. Competitive is essentially ranked, you're given a rank ranging from 1-5000 after completing your first ten matches, and afterwards are matched with and against players of similar ranking as you try to move up the ladder. Quick play is just an unranked playlist for the standard playlists and maps. 2. Payload: You and your team escort a moving objective through the map as the enemy team try to stop your advance Capture point: The attacking team tries to take control of two successive points on the map Control point: Essentially team-based king of the hill; central objective, both teams try to take control of it. Hybrid assault/escort: Combination of assault and payload Various arcade modes: Includes 1v1, 3v3 etc. 3. Just play. Literally anything you do will give you XP, and as you level up, you'll be rewarded with lootboxes which give you a variety of cosmetic items. 4. There is a designated PvAI mode with three difficulty levels. AIvAI can be created via a custom match. PvP is everything else other than those two options. 5. I'm not entirely sure what you mean by this, but I'm assuming you're asking about team composition. Standard team composition is 2 tanks, 2 healers, and 2 DPS, you can deviate from that slightly depending on the situation. 6. Absolutely. I recommend checking out the Mercy and Widowmaker stuff.
