Anyone Else Miss 2CP?

It’s not just nostalgia, I genuinely miss Hanamura & Anubis. :disappointed:

Paris can stay gone though.

The maps themselves were great. but the starwatch mode made me remember how annoying the last point on Horizon can be.

you mean the game mode that got removed even though there wasnt actually anything wrong with it and it was mostly just people complaining because they didnt know how to or werent willing to do what was necessary to actually play the game mode?

But…but… 40 minute overtime matches on volskaya… :pleading_face:

Also There’s too many Escort maps in rotation which is so boring, Havana & JunkerTown stink…:pleading_face:

Personally, no. The map art was nice, including Paris and HLC, but the mode itself can go dance the Hully Gully, for all I care.

No thanks. 2CP in OW2 would have 100x more leavers with the f2p model.

They just need to do a map rework for Paris like they did to Watchpoint: Gibraltar. I don’t think Paris needs that many changes to be a good map to be honest, just an extra route here and there so you don’t get stuck in chokes.

I think the devs could definitely have improved 2CP, rather than just remove it like they did. Here are some ideas that could improve the mode:

  1. I think 2CP would have worked a lot better if capture progress was slower, but there were more ticks to save capture progress more often. This would allow your team to regroup and not have to just trickle out onto the point with crazy mobile characters trying to prevent the point from being capped before you can regroup.
  2. Also, they could do something like if there is 1 ally on the point, but 3 enemies on it, the capture would still progress some, but at a slower rate than normal. This would prevent 1 slippery/tanky enemy from completely stopping capture progress while his teammates keep trickling out of spawn to stall.
  3. Finally, adding a forward spawn for first point defenders is an option; this is probably the worst idea out of these 3 suggestions, but may work great depending on how the first 1 or 2 of these ideas are implemented.

I unironically miss Volskaya. Of course, that’s because I like how it was designed and not just because it was a 2CP game. I still have to wonder, why can TF2 handle control points as a game mode, but Overwatch couldn’t?

Yo same, I can’t believe it’s 2023, we’re not even a year out from what we once had and I’m already missing Drawnubis and Hanamura. I even miss Volskya of all places, but HLC and Paris can stay in the time out corner for all eternity.

based on what exactly? we have like zero clue how it would go as we’ve never played 2cp in a 5v5 setting

Not one bit. Mode was unfun for most people to play, and blizz was never able to find a solution with map changes or mode changes to make it play well. Sure some people liked it, but at least they can still play it in arcade from time to time.

But we do, without a f2p model we had tons of leavers to the point 2CP maps had to be removed. In OW2 leavers are a much bigger problem now and we dont even have 2CP. 5v5 would be even worse for 2cp as there are less tanks.

I’m already traumatized. Plus Antarctica reminds me of Volskaya. I have nightmares. Nightmares I say!
