Just so I can say I said it first:
- Bomb defusing
- Hostage rescue
- Zombies

Hope not, already got enough reasons not to play.
If there really is âGroundbreakingâ new gameplay coming soon, it makes a lot of sense that this season has had so little content: the Devs have been hard at work developing and testing this new mysterious content! Very exciting prospect 
Talents (sometimes available in the shop)

Anything that adds complexity and makes the game deeper is a plus in my book.
Just my two cents.
That being said, I donât see them adding talents into the game without massive playtest and balance beforehand. I could see selectable passives being added though. I really liked that variation and itâs much easier to balance and to play around if you can see what the enemy has chosen.

If it doesnât include a format change from 5v5 ima be disappointed and based on the Devs track record, Iâm ready for disappointment.
Community building tools starts with guilds and the ability for players to organize without a lot of hard work, and I already mentioned a feature Iâd add with it.
Itâs a huge difference because no one uses voice/text in game from fear of either being bullied or banned. If youâre in a guild youâd be âoutside the systemâ and issues wouldnât be handled by Blizz since youâd likely be on discord or whatever. Meaning you join one that reflects your mindset and the experience you want to have in-game.
i.e. the incels can have their own silo while the rest of us socialize.
Yeah? Isnât this a good thing? Anyone who was around when Brig was released knows how your friends list can go from 20 to 2 quickly. Technically I guess you could use friend of a friend but this is game agnostic afiak so itâs usually just wow people.
The 1 and only reason this hasnât been implemented, and why Jeff had to fight for things like the workshop, is because Blizzard is obsessed with having full control over your user experience so they can manipulate whales/fomo. But as weâve seen this is extremely short-sighted.

More ways to exploit the players for money, probably.
This relates to selling them being too similar to gambling. However, giving them away for progression or whatever is ok as you didnât pay and not know what you were getting. So they could come back, just not for money.

My money is on shop skin improvements (Not prices though).
Lol, so the game is decently balanced my guy. Like the main issue is more so if whatever is meta at the time is actually fun to play around.
Like the things ana / sombra / widow / " insert your heroes counter " do are intended.
And itâs more of an issue that people are bored and want something to do, as we kind of a solved OW more or less. We know how the comps work, and how most interactions play out.
Yes and no, if itâs a mechanic like a games loot drop itâs fine. However they are a skin selling business.
And loot boxes are a system to get people hooked into endless grinding, with in a limited time span. That in itâs self stack the odds against you actually getting what you want.
So while your invested even in just the free stuff, the fact that itâs more likely then not isnât giving you the thing you wanted. Will push people into feeling like they need to buy it.
Itâs kind of what the whole system was built on, FOMO that gets you invested into such. To dig itâs claws deeper into ya.

What Iâd want selfishly is talent trees or new forms. Like genji can be a dps or a support. But having hope is silly. So Iâm assuming bans because how easy is that to put in. I feel talents arenât groundbreaking though. Idk maybe itâs actually 7v7.

7v7 is a weird ask, itâs a complete unknown and the engine already needed some work just to enable 6v6 again.
And itâs not exactly removing the tank bottle neck either.
Either way this isnât gonna be good most likely. 2 weeks of everyone theorizing. By the time we learn I feel itâs not gonna measure up to the hype. Realistically they should just come out and say what it is.
Itâs talents.
Thatâs it. Thereâs nothing more to add.
Real possibility of hero bans alongside it

I donât think it will be Talents. Imagine what they had for the Junkenstein Labs was all they had developed. If they had more talents ready, they would likely have included that hero into the Labs roster, yeah? That was less than half the hero roster and only 4 months ago. All the feedback they received from the Labs event was likely well-received, but there wouldnât be enough time to generate talents for the remaining 30-ish heroes, implement it into a polished experience, and have it ready to go live for Season 15.
They likely have something like a Hero Ban, or more likely, 6v6 comp.
I like some of the other comments here suggesting they went through all the maps and added destructibility. Cool idea, but I think thatâll be a new map-specific gimmick more-so than a new feature. I think itâs more likely than Talents, but less likely than Hero Bans.
There are dozens of us! I also would not want Talents in PVP; especially in comp. It adds all of that extra downtime between rounds. Theyâve only showed it to us on best-of-5 Control maps.
