The biggest annoyance for many players is the fact that the only way to earn currency without paying is to complete weekly challenges. One of which involves getting ten team kills – which is actually reduced from the original
In the run-up to the Resident Evil 4 remake, fans have been sharing their favourite Easter Eggs online. The game was full of strange little quirks, both accidental and deliberate. After the mine cart section, there’s a skull which, when interacted with, will give you piles and piles of money. Some claim these are the takings from the enemies slain in the aforementioned cart level, others that the money was there regardless. I’m not sure if it will be back in the remake, but I’m leaning towards ‘no’ – it just seems a bit too silly for games these days to keep
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
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
Overwatch 2 launched with an account merging feature, which would bring along any cosmetics and leftover currency from the previous game. Unfortunately, this feature hasn’t been working as intended , and some players still don’t have access to skins they bought back when Overwatch launched in 2
“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
Support and DPS players now slip into the role of tank, whether consciously or not. Brigitte often helps with pushing by using her much-weaker shield when there’s an offensive tank in play, while Lucio relies on his ultimate to essentially turn everyone into a tank, making that the way to push in losing games. There’s clearly a void that people are scrambling to fill, and it’s only made Overwatch even less intuitive to get into. New tanks now have to play the role completely solo, leaving little room for error, and if they do fail, it’s up to the DPS and support to try and fill their sh
On the other side of things, playing against one tank is even more of a chore because both healers are now focused on the same tank, rather than dividing their heals between two. Take Orissa. She can buff herself and deflect damage, all while Mercy and Moira both keep her health full, meaning that it’s much harder to take her down. If you lose track of other players and focus too much on that singular tank, the enemy DPS can easily swoop in and pick you off. It’s all much harder to play for both sides, but the solution is sitting in the first game – adding a second tank. Overwatch 2 events|https://overwatch2tactics.com/ was designed for two of each role and it shows; pulling one away has completely disrupted the way it fl
The bone of contention was a soft salary cap that the company put on Overwatch League teams. While the Department of Justice was making ground, it seems that negotiations have come to a standstill. Reportedly, Activision Blizzard “refused to make certain concessions, including anti-salary cap rule changes that would last beyond the company’s impending acquisition by Microso
Everything must be realistic, atmospheric, and other vague adjectives taken from focus groups and written on white boards. It might remain as a callback, but if it does it will be an exception to the rule. Any of these sorts of things left in by mistake tend to be taken out immediately because players having fun in their own way isn’t part of the developers’ vision. Any way you find to exploit something, even in a single-player experience where no one else is impacted, is viewed as a mistake to be fi
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
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
