Talk:Roadhog

Well, since we're not allowed to edit... Suggestion to change "Landing Chain Hook on a setup Bastion will pull him out of setup mode" to "Landing Chain Hook on a sentry-mode Bastion will pull him out of sentry mode"
 * Done. Changed it to "Landing Chain Hook on Bastion in Sentry-mode will force it back to Recon" just not to be repetitive with words. --Krupam (talk)--

Since we're not allowed to edit... If timed correctly, "Take a Breather" can allow Roadhog to survive D.VA's self destruct, making him the only character to be able to do so without shielding

Broken
Just noting that while editing the source in the trivia section, I noticed there was a message in large red font saying that the in-site ref link after Roadhog's height/weight trivia was broken or something. I am still learning how to use reference links, so I'm asking if somebody more capable can check it out. --Gills97 (talk) 03:33, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Edit: It is also the same under Junkrat's height/weight trivia. Might have been done by the same user, and made the mistake twice. --Gills97 (talk) 04:47, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
 * When you edit a single section of a page, ref links that originate on the parts of the page you're not editing will be "gone" and the preview will show this with that error message. However, this is not really an issue as you are only seeing part of the page for that time you're editing it, so once you save everything is fine again. It's only a problem if the error is on the live page. - TheModster (talk) 05:57, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Oh, alright then! That makes sense. Thanks a lot! --Gills97 (talk) 08:06, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

Nationality
Roadhog being from New Zealand, by this point, is pretty intentional subtext. In my opinion, however, that isn't enough to declare it as his nationality in the infobox. For me, this comes down to the differences between ethnicity and nationality. Roadhog could very well be ethnically a New Zealander, but is an Australian national. So, listing his nationality as New Zealand would be similar to listing Reaper as Mexican instead of American. This is why I changed it back, at least until we get more info on Roadhog's personal history. For right now, his backstory depicts him as being an Australian national, so the infobox should reflect that. I'm very much against jumping the gun here and skipping right to identifying him as a New Zealander before it even comes up.

If anyone disagrees, please discuss it here instead of changing the infobox back and forth. - TheModster (talk) 02:34, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

In the trivia it mentions "wop wop" as a more New Zealander term. This is not the full thruth. You will hear Australians say "out in the middle of woop woop" more than "out in the sticks". Wikipeadia confirms this.

Rate Of Fire
Tested rate of fire by recording a 120 FPS video emptying the scrap gun. Going exactly frame by frame I found that it takes 2.8 seconds to fire all 5 rounds. (2:59 is the last frame with 5 rounds, 5:35 is the first frame with 0 rounds). Due to the first shot firing instantly, you only have to wait through 4 firing intervals to empty the rest of the weapon, meaning 2.8/4 = 0.7 second firing interval. To convert this to rate of fire, 1 / 0.7 ~= 1.43. Skwuruhl (talk) 11:15, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
