Overwatch 2, however, is facing a unique issue, where the queue times for DPS and Tank are over ten minutes , but only around two minutes if you pick Support. It seems that nobody wants to help their team out from the sideli
It’s going to take awhile before we really understand what all of the changes in Overwatch 2 add up to. Even as someone with more than 600 hours played, I’m still trying to figure out what the transition to 5v5 actually means. Right away it was clear that Overwatch 2 is a much faster game. Fewer shields and abilities that CC means more movement, more big plays, and more snowballs. Skilled players have a much better chance of carrying games now, which means heroes with low TTK are even more valuable than ever before. This is the sense I got right away, but what solidified this belief was the design of the three new characters. Sojourn, Junker Queen, and especially Kiriko represent a commitment Overwatch 2 has to independence and personal performance. I’m still undecided on whether that will be better or worse for the game in the long run, but it’s clear Blizzard has rebuilt the game with a focus on the individual over the t
I’ve not gotten stuck into a competitive FPS in years, so playing alongside PC players with a mouse advantage meant I was never going to cut it aim-wise. Fortunately, Junkrat’s bouncing bombastic balls don’t need precision. Just launch a volley of them into the general direction of the enemy team and damage is done. Skirmishes in Overwatch 2 are far more chaotic than I thought they would be, so playing a hero that can just let the explosions fly helped me to ensure I was fulfilling the role of a DPS, even if I didn’t know exactly who I was hitt
I don’t do this to torture myself with the number, I do it because not knowing my rank is more stressful than knowing it. I don’t want to win a game and see my rank fall because I didn’t realize I had lost more than I won in my current set, and I also don’t want to go on a losing streak and see my rank drop multiple tiers all at once. Most people have a tendency to think they’re performing worse than they really are anyway, and this opaque system just amplifies that feeling by hiding the d
So, it seems Blizzard has sent out a survey to a few players to ask them what they think of the microtransactions , and why they haven't spent any money yet. They're mostly multiple choice questions asking players why they primarily bought the Premium Battle Pass, and to elaborate on the reasoning if they've not bought anything at
We’re a mix of PC and console players, so having to play in the PC pool means half of us are going to get outclassed in a one on one fight. I tried the new hero Kiriko but couldn’t get the necessary precision down . I did decently with Soldier 76 but found him to be a little bland. I was horrified at the mere sight of Zenyata and Sigma, so steered well clear of them. Seriously, I thought Overwatch was about quirky gay people fighting it out, not hamsters in robotic balls and dudes that can hear the very unive
What I love most of all, though, is Junkrat’s ultimate ability: the RIP-Tire. At first, I thought this ability turned him into the explosive tire that goes screeching at the opposing team before blowing them into teeny tiny pieces. A friend very kindly pointed out that Junkrat is still very much on the map, so it’s important I make sure he’s safe before I trigger it. You can’t just run in the open and whip it out - positioning is key. Driving it up a wall and sending it crashing down on unexpecting foes pushing the objective, wiping them all out was my crowning achievement during my first day playing, and hearing my teammates shout "that was huge!" is a memory of the game that will stick with me for a long t

There’s already talk of wanting to cash in on the IP hype, and that train of thought could easily lead to Overwatch muddying its personality. Its VP called Fortnite’s collabs "awesome," but looking up to the number one isn’t the right move. It’s become gaming’s toybox, and others like Fall Guys and the aforementioned PUBG have been playing a big game of catch-up to try and reach similar heights, but they won’t. They can’t. Fortnite is on top and that goes above and beyond skins. It hosts concerts, has tie-in comics directly with Marvel, and advertises the newest games and even movies. It brought PlayStation and Xbox-exclusive characters into the fold. Chasing that level of success in mish-mashing IPs is asking for fail
The question is whether or not this is better. Losing double shields and excessive CC has definitely curbed some of the most oppressive comps and helped increase the pace, but there are times when Overwatch 2 Patch Notes|Https://Overwatch2Tactics.Com/ 2 feels like playing deathmatch instead of a tactical team game. I have seen, and have been, the one player that utterly dominates the entire enemy team, eliminating targets on site in a way that just wasn’t possible when there were two tanks on the field. It will be interesting to see how the next few new heroes fit into the meta, but I suspect they’ll be multi-function killing machines just like Kir
