@ArimiaDev Exactly. And this is a problem plenty of people have in any industry. One thing that makes it worse is when fans start the comparisons. Someone wrote a whole article saying basically "stop calling Gundam Evolution 'Overwatch but Gundam'" because that's how prevalent it is for

Am I the only one that can’t spectate the person that just killed me in Overwatch? Is it a bug or is it something I can fix in my setting or..? I was just playing Brigette and a Hog hooked me through it so I wanted to see the replay through his perspective and instead I spectated

@OWAnonymous_ Don't kid yourself. The only reason we needed role queue is because brig literally broke overwatch. She destroyed any meta involving dps. This resulted the in the most boring comp, GOATS, which they needed to fix somehow, but the damage had already been done. Role queue was made.

@RedshellOW If they have new technoligy in overwatch 2 for the sequal and its not in Overwatch 1 it would have to be moved over from the branch and would create alot of issues, basically double the work. While It's possible It's a headache from a technical standpoint.

@squijid Overwatch was the only multiplayer game where they balanced the game to be fun, whereas other multiplayers I've played seemed content with keeping broken or unfun mechanics if they could "be dealt with"

@FUNKePills @closedcaskett Literally I think the biggest issue with Overwatch's lore is that the game ITSELF isn't canon The lore is 100% disconnected from the pvp in every way except a few voice lines

@hexagrams I don't think people realize that Blizzard doesn't care about Overwatch. 15 min DPS queues, low quality matches, stupidly broken heroes, dumb patches that don't make a difference, barely any content.

Is it wrong that in Overwatch as of late I've gotten really good of getting myself out of trouble as Dva because of the often-questionable decisions the randoms I get stuck with make?

You can Tell Overwatch is in desperate need of money because of 2xp on The anniversary in hopes of selling smurf accounts (which is why they havent addressed the smurfing issue btw) and re-releasing the mvp skins.

been playing tf2 and overwatch a bit lately and honestly, if tf2 didnt have such a bad bot problem, it would be the better game by so far really hope overwatch 2 can copy the way the source engine handles movement mechanics like air strafing a bit better, also **** role queue

@Frank_Supercell Blizzard is falling apart, not surprised about this. They got bigger problems. I believe that they're really behind on the table with Overwatch 2. They need to rework the game completely. I think 6 people are way too many to maintain. Considering they also have coaches/analysts..

@OWAnonymous_ The issue with Open Queue is that it doesn't feel like an official competitive mode. And so people don't take it seriously. The most toxic players of overwatch hang up there.

@Hcpeful_ The issue with Overwatch imo, were the videos. In the beginning it felt like a huge build up and teaser for content we were never going to get. Each cinematic felt like it was building up to a movie or playable content/more events but all that dried up.

@PotatoCouch6 This service was said to be the casual mode killer (Casual mode is the default way to play tf2) because it had no bots, but the fact that it said that made it even more apparent that they didnt realize TF2 is so much more different compared to CSGO or Overwatch, since their wa-

@OWAnonymous_ The problem was that everyone would 5 stack dps and suck at it and refuse to switch, so you’re left to just lose. If you have a group of reliable people, yes, I’d love no role queue. But randos? The dumbest people in Overwatch if it’s left up to them.
