“I made a support ticket with [Blizzard] and told them I was missing my [Widowmaker] Noire skin with proof of preorder and old pics,” said one player on Reddit. “All they said was they’re working on it and to check back later. One month later, still missing.” It looks like Blizzard still hasn’t figured out this is
My old mains just aren’t fun anymore. Playing Mercy with well over 15,000 healing in lower ranks, keeping the team alive, resurrecting vital players, and helping push the payload, all while avoiding the focus of the entire enemy team, only to get a Cassidy spamming “I need healing” halfway across the map, is annoying ; __ Lucio is fun but doesn’t always work on defence maps, and Bridgette depends on the synergy with the rest of your squad. Kiriko, however, lets me stand on my own two legs in fights, easily jump to my allies with her teleport ability so I can catch Cassidy being a prick and save him, and heal as standard. The versatility is unlike any other hea
However, not everyone in the subreddit is looking at the past through rose-tinted shades. While agreeing with the criticisms against the battle pass, Ranrokk points out that loot boxes were still manipulative, often containing limited-time loot to incentivize spend
Playing support in Overwatch 2 Guide|Https://Overwatch2Tactics.Com/ is like crawling through mousetraps to help your little brother up after he’s fallen, only for him to kick you in the face and call you a twat. It’s a thankless job, no matter how much you heal, and if you’re playing with randoms, you’ll often be hung out to dry in front of an ulting Moira and a hook-happy Roadhog. I swore off the role a couple of years ago, but Kiriko has roped me right back in, angry chat messages and thanks-spamming teammates be dam
The new system updates your rank once every seven wins or 20 losses, making it particularly hard to follow. Players also feel that they are not being rewarded despite getting multiple victories. “Making us win seven games to see our new rank is stupid. You can literary be the team MVP every single match you play and go 7-4 only for your rank to stay the same or even go down,” said one Reddi
To cap off the week, players don’t seem too happy with the new maps that came along with Overwatch 2, especially those for the Push mode. Many have complained that the maps are too big for the mode , resulting in players having to walk long distances to make it back to the action after getting kil
The US Department of Justice and Acti-Blizz have been holding legal discussions regarding the Overwatch League esports tournament. The main reason for these discussions is Acti-Blizz breaking antitrust rules stemming from a “competitive balance tax”. The talks have reportedly broken down after Activision “refused to make certain concessio
With how Blizzard is handling these issues, Overwatch 2 players are worried that their favourite Hero will be the next to get sidelined. Plenty are already theorising on who is next in line for the temporary chopping block, with Brigitte being the common consensus . She can create an invincible shield with the help of Kiriko – a major exploit that could potentially ruin ga
However, the hype of Ramattra’s reveal was short-lived, as it was later revealed that he would only be available via the Battle Pass . This will lock out a lot of us from accessing him immediately, as you’ll have to grind through the track to unlock him, possibly taking weeks if you don’t have the premium pass with its XP bo
Negotiations aren’t the only thing that are breaking down; Overwatch 2’s competitive rank system is also broken , according to many players. Many have complained that they are being de-ranked in an unfair manner due to the new system, which seems to be wildly inconsist
While we’re all enjoying playing Overwatch 2, it seems Blizzard is still struggling with certain aspects of the game, balance primarily. Sometimes it’s a particular Hero, other times it’s a map, and on some occasions, it’s an entire game mode. When it’s not balancing issues, it’s the in-game store, which either pushes you to spend real money, or doesn’t give you cosmetics you’ve owned since 2016. The cherry on top, however, is a legal matter between Activision-Blizzard and the US Department of Just
Blizzard has done the impossible – it’s got gamers liking loot boxes . No, not because it improved upon the controversial microtransaction, but because it replaced them with something even worse: the Overwatch 2 battle pa
Described as unrewarding and grindy – and tied to an in-game store that’s overpriced – Overwatch fans are longing for the days of randomized loot. They also complain that the change in how to earn in-game currency is making them “toxic”, as they’re primarily focused on completing challenges to unlock skins, rather than enjoying the game. All in all, players are looking for big changes to Overwatch 2’s economy, feeling that it’s taken on far too many of the negative traits associated with free-to-play ga
