5v5 teams, Mei's primary fire doesn't freeze anymore, Lucio's healing and speed boost abilities are just passives for other characters now, only one tank per team.
https://kotaku.com/overwatch-2-will-only-have-five-players-per-team-1846936217

How does Blizzard just fundamentally NOT understand their own game?

I'm optimistic about it, 5v5 make you feel like you have more impact. Also Mei freeze is cancerous. Will have to see how they balance the tanks and healing.

And kept trying so hard to enforce a meta instead of letting meta's flourish. Tank meta goes out of control? Just prevent people from playing tanks!

yeah i don't get their obsession with micromanaging how people play the core game. I can understand no duplicate heros and to some extent even role locking, but making it 5 v 5 just for competitive sake is dumb.

There are like hundreds of major companies who love the CCP and it's hilarious that Blizzard (specifically Blizzard, not even Activision) managed to get on everyone's radar over it.

Yeah, Overwatch is terrible so its sequel can only be worse. I mean the stand-alone single player component. Looking forward to Blizzard setting another trend of selling the SP and MP parts of a game separately.

I dont understand the hate 5v5. Anyone who's been playing the last year knew this was coming. Fixes more problems than it creates, and only burns off-tank mains.

OW2's biggest problem was that it just looks underwhelming.

This is happening with alot of PvP centric games, the same stuff happened for R6 Siege to a lesser extent, the game starts getting balanced for Esport players that represent less than 1% of their playerbases and it's infuriating. Games have started to be exploited much in the same way Physical sports are when it comes to professional level stuff.

i won't say bad, cause i still play overwatch and i'm still kinda hyped for diablo 4 so there's still something going for them. i'd still say they're weaker than they used to be. most of their stuff feels like it's just them going through the motions to please the suits. the writing especially has hurt for it.

hate them as a company, though. they treat their employees and their customers like shit. that's enough for me to be more critical of them, even if i know i'm gonna break and get diablo 4 eventually anyway. if you're gonna be assholes at least put out something decent for it.

seriously though, what are mei and lucio even gonna do now?

Theyre weaker than they used to be, but their old games are top 20 games of all time, and overwatch is amazing, and Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3 are not bad games. Theyre still better than anything EA has come out with. They shit on mass effect andromeda.

idk, if you ignore the whole treating everybody like shit thing, theyre probably top 3 gaming company right now

For those who have kept up with Overwatch lore, did they ever establish a time line that makes any fucking sense? Last I kept up the Omnic Crisis had occurred somewhere between 5 and 35 years ago and Mercy was somewhere between 12 and 65 years old.
