New details for "Overwatch" will feature changes for characters Ana and McCree and more "Overwatch" characters added in "Heroes of the Storm".
Blizzard Entertainment announced new changes for two "Overwatch" characters, Ana and McCree for the PC version. The new patch update for the PC version will have Ana a boost upgrade, while McCree will be less effective at longer range.
Ana's changes comes with a boost from her Biotic rifles as she can now fire up to ten rounds instead of eight and it is 20 percent faster than before. Blizzard stated on the official forum website that the changes will address Ana's overall weakness and make the players feel better in picking her during battles.
McCree on the other hand, will be nerfed once again as his damage falloff range decreased on his primary fire, while his alternate fire gets a 15 percent increase in rate of fire. McCree will also recover faster after throwing his flashbang. Blizzard explained that McCree's long range damage was a bit too much for some playersas the change weakens his long range damage somewhat, but still keeps it stronger than it has been in the past.
