Not getting the competitive drive points for placements is pretty silly, surely there must be a way of calculating a number to give

I agree. They could have at least made is flat rate if they think you go up and down too much while they are figuring out your placement.

They must have know people would be checking out comp for the first time this season as a result of this drive… surely? Either they did and made no allowance for it or they just assumed everyone would have played ranked?
New initiatives in the game are good obviously but I dunno, everything they try lately just feels a bit half baked and underwhelming to me.

With a child I have little time to play this game. I can just barely complete the weekly challenges. But the challenges encourage playing quick play/arcade. To complete 45 games of quick play or arcade, I don’t have time to play competitive. If the challenges didn’t exist I’d probably only play comp.
And I am playing well beyond my limits to complete some comp games. I’m on a win streak for the first time in my competitive career and but for SOME REASON I’m not collecting drive points!
Also (off topic but speaking of challenges) I love support. I am support. But the challenges want me to play all roles, which almost always makes me play tank.
Playing this game feels like work and I’m not having fun anymore.

Yeah this all feels relateable.
OW has just become an outlet to sell skins

Totally agree here. This was a foreseeable problem. I don’t know why they didn’t think about it. Surely they could anticipate that people who play less competitive might be interested in checking it out.
Also apparently yesterday a lot of people were throwing games become the drives go off how much you win. So starting lower means it’s easier to get more stuff. This is a flawed system!
doing placements after 3 rank resets, first 3 games games all roles were basically forced losses, everyone on my team was playing by themselves feeding, last three games were basically forced wins, this matchmaking system is wack
Its issues with the matchmaker and players tbh, its crazy that games are won/lost on the load in screen
