Blizzdrones are battered housewives
The game is dead in the water, an oil prince came outta nowhere a month or two back making a league for it so pretty sure they are just doing everything he wants while Blizzard gets the bag.
>literally baby-fying the game for zoomers
>we want to reduce burst damage
>we want fights to not stagnate
What's the goal here then?
Everything revolves around supports
The obvious thing to do is to fricking nerf Support healing and tune down their kits so they aren’t OP anymore. Supports should not be able to 1v1 dps and disengage with zero consequences whatsoever.
But the brain dead decision NU Blizzard made was to give everyone healing and increase dmg hitboxes and increase HP and bam, now they put a small bandaid on a problem that was easily fixable
I’d say this is gonna come back to bite them in the ass but the game is pretty much dead in the public’s eyes anyway
this nerfs Supports though. More health and the dps passive means you're gonna be spending more time healing your tank rather than shooting enemies.
Usually you could have an Ana focus on healing and go flank as Kiriko. I don't think that will be possible to the same extent with the new patch
I wouldn’t say all supports are nerfed tho, take Bap for example, he’ll probably be more focused on shooting the dps while shifting and throwing lamp on his tank.
I’m worried for Zenyatta tho. His healing was already shit thanks to his damage tradeoff but with this new dps passive the harmony orb won’t even matter
all supports are nerfed because of the passive, some more than others. Low healing output heroes like Brig(excluding packs), Lucio, Zen, Mercy will suffer from the dps passive decreasing their already meager healing.
Heroes with higher healing numbers like Ana, Kiri, Bap, Moira will have to spend extra ammo or resources healing their team.
Illari beam will be even worse at keeping her tank up and her pylon is already kind of shit
Kiriko and Bap are probably the least effected I guess, because they don't have any damage downtime while healing. But Kiri is losing her 2 tap which is a big nerf.
while also making everything else worse. would be easier and better if they straight up nerfed supports
People complain about instant death burst damage
It’s like Mercy’s Dmg boost, they don’t want to fix the actual problem
>DPS gets dmg boosted by Mercy
>insanely strong
>the obvious answer is to nerf Mercy dmg boost
>Blizzard decides to nerf the dps instead
Constant participation rewards
These seem like blanket changes for all heroes that had little to no thought put behind them.
>These seem like blanket changes that had little to no thought put behind them.
so same as usual?
Yep, cause that’s what Blizzard wants now
They gigabuff the brain dead heroes (Orisa, LifeWeaver, Bastion) and keep skill based heroes (Doomfist, Genji, Lucio) at mediocre tier so it will be “fair” for Metal rank players
And this only took 2 years of debate approval and micromanaging to implement after being reccomended back in 2022
Scrap the game. Sell all women to the greatest monster rape Weg bider, give me a Reinhardt plushie.
>in the end, blizzard just said frick it and turned their game into the superior hero shooter (paladins)
not interested until Widow, Kiriko, Tracer and Mercy get a micro bikini skin
Tank-Healer-DPS in an FPS was always an awful idea. Take a look at how Blizzard handles WoW PVP and you'll realize how fricking stupid they are. They need to add dampening in arenas just because shit refuses to die.
>Lets do all the shit Paladins did years ago and pretend we came up with it.
Wow.
People still play this?
Damn
> People still play this?
Nearly 2 million people a day
Holy shit that sounds awful lmao.
Just revert this garbage game back to 1.0 or kill it off completely.
Who cares post Sombra
whats the point of this? Tanks were already unkillable dps so they buff them?
so it's just paladins now?
band-aid patches
>Make aiming easier
>Make TTK even longer than it already was.
moronic balance changes. The whole issue with OW in the first place was too strong shields and healing which caused the TTK to jump to over 9 seconds average. Nobody likes a game of shooting neon barn walls with peashooters.
Nobody also likes game where you die in 0.5s and one death means losing the point.
False, people play plenty of games with very short TTKs, but very few play games with stupidly long TTKs. People can take quick deaths if they feel their guns are powerful.
as it is, overwatch feels like you're shooting at a wall. a TTK of 0.5s is not the only alternative to this.
That's only if you focus on tanks. If you have good aim and shoot their dps or healer it's another story. Like you play Soldier and use rocket ok they alrdy lost half of their hp. Now you need to hit their body what 5 times with your automatic weapon and they're already dead.
>Nobody also likes game where you die in 0.5s
Anon CoD4 and MW2 were like this, even faster, everyfrickingbody loved these games.
I think hating low TTK is a neozoomer thing
See how Sniper in tf2 was fine for years, but recently people started seething over him
Anon you are the zoomer of gaming if you never seethed about instant kill hitscan in fps before.
>tank literally dead because passive is useless against the CC spam youre going to be eating as the only tank
>"should we make hard CC less effective against the one giant hitbox on the field? nah lets just give them more health thats the problem"
everytime i think about coming back to this game i look at pic related and realize that this is what the role i used love devolved into. game is so shit i actually fill bad for doomfisting people
I feel like Blizzard is overengineering their game for casuals. WoW has the same issue. The premise of Vanilla WoW and Overwatch 1.0 and then it evolved into endgame autism.
5 seconds seems to be a bit too short, any fleeing enemy will just be back within 15-25 seconds with full HP as if nothing happened
Don’t worry they’ll pretend they didn’t notice that issue till Season 12
>Everyone has even more fricking health
Jesus christ
It's turning into a mobile game holy shit hahahahahahaha. Like if the hitboxes weren't big enough what the frick is going on
CLASSIC CHADS WE ARE GOING HOME
>tank passive is garbage for anyone that isn't reinhardt
>don't bother giving them a new passive
Did revert DF into a DPS again? Yeah I don't think so
it's nice to see overwatch burn and crumble
5vs5 was the biggest mistake ever and overwatch2 is dogshit scam same as blizzard fricking soulless homosexual company
my favorite role got gutted so hard i didnt play since season 2
who wants to get counter picked as solotank every fricking game so you need to change every other fight because they just switch to 5 counters as soon as you dominate them
play winton
insta switch to bastion, reaper, orisa and honestly support doesnt even need to switch because as long as they look at each other you cant outdamage their heal
and you team just onetrick their characters while you get hardcounter picked every fight
even if you win it feels horrible
nothing you do has impact you just exist and stay alive while pressuring them but you cant get any picks
even your ults are usless because they just get suzud and lamped
imagine getting your ult countered by a 10sec cd ability
this game is aids and and i hope blizzard fricking implodes
and all their shitty devs and balancing cucks get send to the street
>tanks have more reduced knockback
>literally frick all else of value
So this is just someone that really didn’t like fighting Hamster and Doomfist making patches huh
The tank passive has been in since launch anon
