@OmarNotMyName @leahcrete That’s understandable, I’ve had issues with that myself! I’ve not played Overwatch so I can’t comment on that experience but I do agree with your point that the solo queueing is harder in this system (how it should be)! One thing Respawn can do is put a multiplier on -

@pinkertons that was probably my biggest issue with overwatch map design was how so many places only had one entrance you were forced to push through it felt rly dumb especially with all the splash stun slow aoe cc stuff in the game

@waefrebeorn and than you guys wonder why people like me say you guys are no better than the overwatch fandom. you literally think harassment is the only way they'll acknowledge a problem and than calls me soft because i'm siding with the dude who saw this first hand. stop

@cyberdeathninja I wouldn't say more successful League is by far the best in it's genre and while Valorant might have its problems at least it's not Overwatch, even it's auto-chess is probably the best at what it does even though I don't really like it.

@NyanSox I think this is just because people are used to overwatch 1, it’s like a car you have had for 8 years vs a car you just bought that has a different feeling steering and breaks. Doesn’t make it a bad car. Especially when the old car had major issues.

The only game I find trouble streaming constantly is Genshin cause that Resin system makes that stream only last 2 to 3 hours before immediate Burn Out. I will come back to DBD and Overwatch and Paladins, and all the other games I love.

@bebopally Every time a studio rebalances its game around the "competitive meta" it's pointless. Comp players will *always* find a broken meta, all you're doing is killing fun for the much larger casual player base. Overwatch killed the whole game that way

@peter_dozal @TechVolt717 @OWAnonymous_ I’m not saying you’re wrong but the issue is, that’s how casuals have always seen Overwatch and that’s a big reason the game fell off so completely even without new content. 80-90% of the player base will always be metal ranked. Game still has to be fun for them.

God I want to make overwatch friends so bad man. I love that game so much, and I just want to be able to have other fans that I can play with. Obviously I'd need to be able to vibe with them, but the problem is all my friends hate the game...

@PixelTwitchTV @Kotaku Yeah, that's most likely the case, and I'll be honest I did forget how many characters Overwatch has. I think my issue is mainly something to do about how the slider is presented, in the image mainly, just doesn't sit right with me.

Overwatch 2 HAS problems. It is Overwatch 1 but WITH UNFIXED ISSUES. I've BEEN saying this! Adding comp to beta isn't going to help, you are just putting off your own burnout again. This game HAS to be tested and made w/o worrying about content creators.

@ggDaydreams Used to compete back in the day mostly fps CSGO/OVERWATCH/APEX. But due to financial issue i had to sold it so it's been roughly 3 or close to 4 years to not having any pc/laptop but soon🤞 hopefully I'll make some bag in the space and buy me a new pc that I've been craving for.

this includes genshin impact, tf2, overwatch, apex, 95% of mobile games now days, literally anything with the intention of money towards a risk or reward situation in the form of boxes or pulls or some sort of event is ******* GAMBLING. YOU HAVE A GAMBLING PROBLEM.

Is it a CYBERNETIC AXE with a wooden handle??? Is it WiFi enabled? Will it stop being sharp if you don't update it? They literally went "well it's the future so it's gotta have a glowing light on it" this stupid axe symbolizes every problem I have with Overwatch's visual design.

@MiKAuditore Nope dude this literally said Call of Duty, Overwatch and other popular based IPS if you actually bothered reading the whole blog. If you think they would make Crash and Spyro exclusive to Xbox and cause them to lose much growth then you`re out of your mind lmao

I know other Overwatch fans dont want to hear it but: Activision made your game. Blizzard is the logo they stuck on the front to get you to buy it. I'm still hoping they properly fix things for OW2 cause the game has potential, but any "Blizzard vs Activision" side-taking is -

@delmontyb Well, in my experience with Starcraft, Overwatch and Lol, they either stopped the match or kept it going with no rank change. It's difficult to say how to resolve the abandoning issue in competitive games, but the team that has to stay shouldn't get penalized.
