@SamitoFPS I don't really mind it, lots of positives. I don't think there's too much about current Overwatch that needs to be "preserved", sorta sick of it after 6 years so Im glad they're at least fixing some of the issues

@dafran @PlayOverwatch This is really a systems issue, unfortunately Overwatch allows this without consequence and also its a money maker as they sell alt accounts

"We shouldn't have outsourced..." Well, you didn't have any trouble "outsourcing" a shitload of your art from Overwatch, Halo, Star Wars, and invisible friends. Lmao. They were doing you a favor. Get real.

@jar_that @pcgamer nah you misunderstand. my problem is people considering overwatch dead when its still played way more than many games that people would by no means consider dead. it had more viewers than rust, dead by daylight, among us, sea of thieves, siege and rocket league at that time

@Tensa_The_Sage I thought it was bad at first but then after looking at overwatch and al the problems with it I feel like this could possibly solve a lot that people dislike about the game, double shield is extremely annoying and to not have to worry about that I feel will create better metas

@SamitoFPS I was, but I'm not anymore. It won't fix most issues, it will fix queue time in the short term, but supports will probably be the next role on the chopping block. I feel like what made Overwatch unique is fading away.

@SamitoFPS It’s like when they made role queue to kill goats - a cheap solution to the problem. The true issue isn’t the 6v6 formula, it’s the individual hero balance decisions and neglect of the devs. Killing 6v6 will drastically change the game and kill what made overwatch unique.

(@StagnBlaeberry) reported
@Arxareon Blizzards issue is they announced all these things far too early and I can guarantee it is because of the reception they got from people over Immortal and the fact Overwatch is basically a dead IP currently.

@xenobIade3 having trouble adjusting a core part of the gameplay so just removing it is like overwatch levels of bad balancing

if they'd have just made overwatch an unreal tournament 2004 mod we wouldn't have any of these problems

Tensa
(@Tensa_The_Sage) reported
@SFSEgo This goes back to my original statement. They’ve broken a key part of what made Overwatch unique. The exclusion of another player/tank in the attempts of what? Balance? Different direction? Why couldn’t they have done that in the past 2 years with updating their game?

(@LeaksOverwatch) reported
Overwatch League has trouble getting new sponsors. Coca-Cola, Kellogg’s and State Farm paused/canceled their contracts. Therefore the Overwatch 2 e-sports scene could be much less relevant than the Overwatch 1 already is. This is a big problem for Overwatch 2 and the franchise.

@SellingLobbies @GameSpot Well, it’s true that Sony as a company doesn’t own a „live service“ game … maybe GT7 kinda… But still there are plenty of them playable on the PlayStation. Warframe, Destiny 2, GTA, Red Dead Redemption 2, Overwatch. Yadda yadda yadda. Not exclusive, but still.

Stressed Developer
(@StressedDev) reported
@technige That's an interesting angle to look at it. But it also opens up a new issue: should private individuals have the power to impose sanctions with this kind of massive impact? Don't we need overwatch systems in place? Otherwise it becomes very authoritarian in my opinion.

@SamitoFPS No. Overwatches real problem isn't double shied or Brig, it's an Uneducated Player Base. Removing a tank just exasperates this problem.

@jellyfish_val I think that it'll eventually run into heavy problems with Power Creep and possibly go down the same route Overwatch did, continuing to release characters that make launch reps obsolete (See Phoenix) but I also have a lot more faith in Riot than I do Blizzard in that regard.
