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
There are a total of 35 Heroes introduced in the sequel, and you will have access to only 13 of them from the start. The limited access is due to the decision made by Blizzard to allow the new players to get used to the game playstyle and familiarize themselves with the different ro
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
When you enter the game as a newcomer, you will see the Welcome To Overwatch challenges, which consist of three parts. Completing each part of the challenge will unlock specific game modes, and when you have completed all three, you will have unlocked all the Game Modes, other than the Competitive M
Things only got worse when players found out that they would have to grind all the way to level 55 – which is over halfway – on the Overwatch 2 Battle Pass to get access to Ramattra, much like Kiriko. Many accused Blizzard of making it so that players would need to pay for the premium pass to catch
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
So, it seems Blizzard has sent out a survey to a few players to ask them what they think of the microtransactions , and why they haven’t spent any money yet. They’re mostly multiple choice questions asking players why they primarily bought the Premium Battle Pass, and to elaborate on the reasoning if they’ve not bought anything at
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
Others in the replies agree, and feel that switching off chat doesn’t even put players at a disadvantage. “In my experience, only about 10% of comms in Gold and below are productive callouts,” says TallAfternoon2. “The other 90% is either toxicity, or someone telling people to switch characte
This is far from the first time this sentiment has been shared. Threads from the game’s launch also show players turning off chat to protect their mental wellbeing. One of these users is Capybrian, who describes disabling chat as “the best thing I’ve ever done”. The replies agree, stating that using the in-game pings is a great way to communicate without being abused in c
I think I speak for most Overwatch 2 players when I say that Zarya is a pain in the ass. Whether you’re against her or even playing as her, it’s frustrating just how essential she has become . If you want a chance at winning, you better make her your Tank, otherwise you’re just asking for trou
Overwatch 2 is out now on all platforms, and this time, it is available for free to download and play. The sequel features significant changes from the previous title, such as new maps, modes, heroes, and much more. However, you will still have access to most of the Heroes from the previous g
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, linked webpage 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
After almost a month of this, players are calling for change. Many are complaining that Zarya is the most overpowered Hero in the game, and the most in need of a nerf. And unlike with other heroes, it actually seems to be the Zarya mains themselves leading the charge, as they’re sick and tired of playing the same Hero every ma
The third point in the multiplayer game holy-trinity is moderation, especially if a game caters to minors as well as adults. Reports recently emerged that there were certain Overwatch 2 servers that weren’t moderated properly, as they had inappropriately themed custom games modes like “Sexual Assault Simulat
