"It's a really weird direction for them to make such massive maps while removing 2 players from the match. Push doesn't appear to be designed for 5v5 at all," said one of the comments on the discussion thr
Mei is a larger woman, with thick thighs and chubby cheeks. Some skins have struggled to grasp this - her regular skin is an overcoat, and when special skins take that away, they can struggle with her waist. But still, in a game full of slim and slender feminine ideals, Mei was doing it for the big girls. Unfortunately, her new look is much slimmer, the coat less bulkier, and more determined to show off her small waist. Her face is slimmer too, the cute cheeks replaced by a sharper, more shapely visage. Not only has Mei’s main gameplay gimmick been taken away, but her aesthetic appeal has too. We have lots of slim, beautiful women in Overwatch to play as. We have no one else like
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
One D.Va bug is so powerful it launches her from the game into another lobby entirely . Nerf that. Also, Lucio’s Snow Fox skin may be a bit too flashy, as others can see the frosty fog effect coming off his boots through wal
All of the characters have new skins for Overwatch 2, some better, some worse. It’s all down to personal preference, and most of the dedicated players have skins for their main anyway. Even with my limited playtime, I have a simple palette swap skin for Ashe in my closet. With Mei though, the skin seems to fundamentally change
I am not an expert in Overwatch . Though I have a sneaking suspicion that some data was lost when my accounts merged, the word ‘minutes’ appears on my Most Played Heroes list more than the word ‘hours’ does. I am not an Overwatch die-hard who can tell you the best counters, the new meta, or the perfect strategy. I just pick the characters I like and who seem fun. Occasionally there is a disconnect here - Sombra is cool but I can’t play as her - but mostly, I stick with favourites and hope for the best. Unfortunately, Overwatch 2 has delivered a double body blow to my love of
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
I’ve found Ashe to be a lot more enjoyable to play as, and that’s another part of the problem - it’s not like I’m short of options. I love westerns and the general aesthetic and aura of cowboy stories, and Ashe leans into these tropes brilliantly. She’s wry and romantic, while all of her abilities still work. I’m not married to Mei (such is the tragedy of life), and my experience with Overwatch is limited enough that giving up my main brings about little more than a shrug. For those who have racked up considerably more hours than me on the clock though, taking away one of Mei’s core abilities while claiming to be the same game feels insulting. You can’t even go back to the original Mei because the first game has been taken offl
Roles still exist and good team compositions will still give you an advantage, but we’re seeing a big shift towards individuality. With Kiriko and Junker Queen, as well as the big viability changes that lots of Tanks and Supports received, it is possible for good players to carry in any role now, not just DPS. I have had more than one game where I out-damaged my DPS players as Kiriko or Baptiste, and I almost always outperform my DPS teammates as Junker Queen. In the original Overwatch 2 guide|https://overwatch2tactics.com/ this almost always meant your DPS players weren’t pulling their weight, but now there are characters in every role who can dish out just as much dam
So many battle pass issues are mounting that players are actually pining for the return of loot boxes . Loot boxes! It’s like being stabbed so many times you wish you could go back to being shot inst
Mei mains felt a chill down their spines when they learnt that the Hero would be temporarily disabled in Overwatch 2 due to a glitch with her abilities. It seems players were using her Ice Wall ability to reach areas on the map which they shouldn't be able to, kind of like how Sombra players were glitching into the payload. This prompted the dev to disable Mei, but you can expect her back on November
Longtime Overwatch fans who had credits piled up from the first game were awarded Legacy Credits by Blizzard. However, it appeared that the developer was being its stingy self when Halloween skins from OW1 were marked as 'new' and weren't redeemable via Legacy Cred
Most of this frustration appears to come down to the fact that Overwatch 2 brought the team size down from six to five. This means there's only one Tank per team, making their choice even more essential. So if there's a clear winner in the category, there isn't much room for experimentat
