Some suggestions for QoL changes I would like to see

General Discussion
1
  1. An option in settings to toggle an indicator that shows your basic attack range.
  2. D.Va’s self destruct now shows % charge rate instead of “Ability is not ready yet!”
  3. Better indicator of the Area of Effect for Chromie’s Time Traps.
  4. Way to ping the duration left to able to use a healing fountain.
  5. Better indicator over how many stacks of debuff a target has from Tyrande’s Ice Blade Arrows.
  6. Hold Fire (H) no longer cancels movement commands. (?)

What certain of Quality of Life changes you want to see?

Wall outlines, like you see when you play Hanzo or Lucio, for all heroes that have abilities that take advantage of terrain, like Auriel and her wall stuns.

Some QoL for getting the stun proc at all instead of seeing a hero slide down the wall perpendicular to the point of contact -,-

Could use a similar visual update on other heroes, like Cassia, so its easier to tell the difference between full and not-full on the fly. Jumping in at 99% and wondering

  1. Complex stat board once the game ends.
    With time you CC’ed, camps taken, siege did to buildings, to minions, hero damage, time on objective, etc etc.
    Not during the game to prevent people from ranting.
  2. chance to rate players after the game, but again to prevent toxicity, you can only give plus votes, not minus votes. few categories like ‘cooperative’, ‘helpful’ or so. So when you meet someone they can see your ratings. Would be disabled for friends.
  1. option to move UI as I want, not as they tell me
  2. modular talents and spells - If I want to have a spell on W and not Q, I should have the option. Also, if I want a talent path which I take regularly to be always on top in the talent selection, I could rearrange the talents that way.

  • Character stats at the character selections screen.
  • being have to open the character stats while dead . i noticed if you die that you cant
  • screen unlocking upon death
    Are the first things i have in mind

Edit : being able to ping your stacks .
Like being at 50 stacks of pepper with raybor or something :slight_smile: would be nice to let your team know whichout having them check it in the talebt screen , also i noticed not all stacking will show therr either for the allies or enemies . so you might see your stacks but your allies may not depending of the character.

Care to expand on this? I don’t understand.

I’d kinda like active buffs/debuffs displayed tbh. It’d be an icon that looks like the ability/talent providing the buff or debuff to you on the side/corner/whatever of your screen. I’d even want what kind of slows I’m suffering to be displayed in the top right of my screen or something. Ability to customize what shows and what doesn’t as well…

I’m an ex-raider from WoW though, all of that plus tons more information on screen changing at every second is what I’m used to… I know this is expecting too much based on the nature of these different games but I was asked and there are no wrong or dumb answers an an an…

That ping now shows Sadism %, Fenix’s shields % and monstrosity burrow CD (currently it labels it as Abathur instead of monstrosity).

Sure !
If you die , your screen still locks around the area you died . and if you were to move the camera aways by clicking in the mini map youll be ok but if you move your camera too close to where you died , it will auto lock again .

OH OH I remembered a BIG ONE for me! This happened yesterday and I beg Blizz to just please implement this plz plz plz

Had a Jaina that kept getting DC’d and coming back… all game… Please after the first 5 or 10 notifications, please just stop notifying the players in the game. My screen was full of useless text and my announcer was making me go mad. It was completely awful. To my knowledge there isn’t a setting I can use to just disable the text/announcer of this type of message, maybe there is a setting?

Oh I hate this too, one time Alarak started spamming:

“Pathetic coward”
“Returning traitors receive no welcome”

Its like they left, came back, got insulted by Alarak and decided to leave again due to toxicity then repeat this process for 5 times, it was painful to listen to.

pinging improvements in general :ok_hand:

“Diablo is ready to use Black Soulstone!” no that’s the opposite of what i’m trying to ping! i wanted to say i’m not ready or maybe that i’m almost ready! >:0

Showing the amount of soul stones should be enough tbh.

15

aye, the number is exactly what it needs. a message like “Diablo has 27 souls!” would be a quick way to say “i’m still kind of squishy, please be careful”

& then pinging while you have a high number of souls would imply “hey, i’m a brick wall, let’s get in there!”

I’m all for more accurate / more ping types in general. Quest pings would be a good addition, as well as the ability to ping regeneration globes.

Alongside a better AoE indicator for time traps, a visual effect for Blessing of the Bronze would be nice. We have the default rewind effect at the beginning, but we should have another effect that would last the full 8 seconds instead.

Glowing visual indicator for certain talents that buff up ability damage/cd kinda like Alarak’s W when talented with Ruthless Momentum, and Li-Ming’s E when talented with Aether Walker cd buffs.

Better Hero Select screen UI. The current one is just to gloomy with all the purples and violets. Blue would be good kek (im biased bleh)

Also I’d like it if we could sort by Free Hero Rotation, and allow us to select a specific Universe for Random Select. (Ex. Player has OW quest, cannot decide which OW Hero to play, selects Random but Player has a lot of Assassins from other Universes so chances of getting OW Hero is low.)

Able to ping quest stacks. I’ve suggested this back in the old forum and reposted it here in Oct last year. I’d like to know how many Stacks my Kel’thuzad, Diablo, Kael, Valla etc has.

Many amazing proposals here. Thanks for making this thread.

One that miffs me for quite a while now: Please show me the boss’ HP next to the minimap similar to pushing immortal, garden terror or punisher. I don’t want to click around the minimap to see if our boss is full or almost down.

I don’t understand why they decided to put the hero portraits in the select screen in circles. The entire games throws hexagons at us, why not in the hero select?

Originally it was hexagons.
No idea why they changed it to circles.
