Buff Custom Games

General Discussion
1

I know I talk about mercy a lot online and in public and some of this post will be devoted to her but I’m here to talk about a bit more.
Custom games need to be buffed. That sounds weird I know but hear me out. Here are some ideas I’ve come up with :

  • In General
    Allow us to switch passive abilities on and off and customize passive abilities in general.
    Let us have Uprising and Retribution in Custom games
    Allow us to create 12v12 game modes
    Allow us to place multiple turrets, traps (bear trap and venom mine)

  • Mercy
    Allow us to customize the speed of Guardian Angel
    Allow us to customize the cast time and movement reduction for Resurrect.
    Give us the ability to enable her old Resurrect ult
    Don’t disable Valkyrie when we enable Resurrect, give us the choice to use both in Custom Games, like Symmetra.
    But of course give us the ability to disable and enable both ultimate abilities as we please.
    Allow us to have infinite Valkyrie please. Not being able to customize her ultimate duration is annoying and you can’t say it’d be too op as Soldier : 76’s ultimate duration can be made infinite as well.
    With her rezz ultimate ability or ability, let Mercy have the option to resurrect herself <3

  • Symmetra
    As we know, Symmetra is receiving a large rework and has already been reworked once. After the rework, grant us the option to use Support Symmetra in Custom games. We could make them two separate characters on the Hero Select screen.
    Give us the ability to have her old shield ability as well to test it out but don’t replace her Proton Barrier with it, let us use both.
    Also, let us place more than 6 turrets for unlimited destruction 0w0

  • Hanzo
    Hanzo’s rework has surfaced on the Ptr and I’ve played him. He feels smooth and his new abilities enable picks that require actual skill whereas Scatter Arrow felt too cheap. You aim at a hero’s feet who has from 150HP to 400 and they die immediately. You can’t tell me that’s fair but that doesn’t mean new players shouldn’t be able to feel bad because they never got to experience it.
    Give us the ability to use scatter and of course, the same with my previous words, allow us to use it alongside his new abilities.

  • Genji

Allow us to enable his triple jump, I think it’d be super fun.
I don’t have to ask for his old ultimate duration because we are now able to alter ultimate duration for almost all heroes with a timed ultimate abilities.

  • Moira
    Let us customize her ability to attack buildables and placeables with her Damage Biotic Orb.

  • Lucio
    Give us the ability to customize his aura radius for his music and how much he heals and speed boosts.
    Let us experience his old time stopping ultimate

  • Junkrat

Please enable the ability to customize the hero’s and rip tire’s speed and HP separately.

  • Widowmaker

Let us customize how far her hook can go
Let us customize how long her venom mine stays active once it’s been triggered.
Let us customize how quickly her scoped damage multiplier charges up.

  • Mei
    Let us customize the duration of her Cryostasis.
    Let us customize how long her ice walls stay up.

  • Reinhardt, Brigitte, and Orisa.
    Make hero’s health and barriers health seperately changeable

  • Bastion
    Give us the ability to have his beta shield and old beta ultimate. They might both be absolutely terrifying and Op but it’s custom games.

  • Ana
    Give us her nano boosts’ speed boost :slight_smile:
    LET HER NANO BOOST H E R S E L F <3

That’s all I’ve got for right now guys. Lemme know what you think :smiley:

I haven’t read thru all the post but what I did read sounded really good so I’m totally up for this to happen.

I’d like more options for custom games as well. The community would be able to test theoretical hero changes to see what works and what doesn’t.

Exactly! That’s why I would like these changes to be implimented

12v12 was too much preasure on many pc’s… so they wont add it again after they fixed the bug…

Ah. I see, I’ve only been playing the game since September, literally a week after Mercy’s rework. I’ve been trying to do as much research as possible. I must’ve skipped over that accidentally.

One more thing.
Let us disable inac timer. Its so annoying and pointless in Custom games. If someone isnt playing, Ill just kick them.

Thank you so much, it’s so annoying to get kicked randomly even if you’re dong okay

They would have to give us the public version of their game editor for us to do customizations like that. Which I very much want them to release so I can try some ideas for some of the heroes. I’m really hoping when they release the editor they give us access to old/removed abilities. And when I say game editor I don’t mean map making just the editor for heroes/abilities.

12

Indeed. That would make sense and would also be tons of fun

13

also allow us to buff characters damaging parts of their kit separately, such as making it so genjis shurikens do 50 damage each, but his slash only does 10 damage.

This is also another neat idea.

This post has a good collection of stuff custom games need.
Might want to make like a wiki/master post of custom games features.

Gonna add that with Valkyrie you should be able to add more res charges when you ult.

While IDK if all of these would be possible, it all sounds amazing! I’d like if we could disable Lucio wallride for a more balanced you move you die.

These options would open up so many opportunities for custom modes.

Yep, like mercy boxing with mass rez

Boxing is easier with cast time Rez as opposed to paintball, but I never played boxing when mass Rez was around - now, if I can enjoy boxing with current resurrect I think mass res would make it even better.
