I have not had one balanced game since season 1 reset. It is all stomp or be stomped. I only load up for one game and end up turning it off again. It is rough to be an OW fan.

we joked about needing to come up with a gold silver and bronze toilet trophy on a wood pedestal and award them as a group to video game companies. with exaclty what is the #1 issue in a video game. so it becomes a funny way to get companies to change.

Y’all must not have ever played another PvP game if you think this.

Same, but i hop off Comp to play Quick Play instead, it’s way more fun and balanced, i don’t get as much frustrated when i lose and often I get to experiment and try new heroes. Oh and i don’t havwe to wait 5-10 minutes for a mediocre game.

Since the start of this season, the game puts me against impossible opponents, while at the same time giving me 1-2 newbies…My skills didn’t change from a season to the other so it must be the matchmaking.

I also noticed a surge in subtle cheating like Sierras beign oddly competent with their aimbot ability while beign utterly mediocre and missing everything for the rest of the game
Level 1 hanzo missing everything, then switching to Genji and hitting every shot and combo with they shaky 10 000 DPI aim

Keller and the Kidz (DEV4) couldn’t make it here tonight, so I will be excepting this award on their behalf.

We would like to thank Greed, for which the SHOP wouldn’t be possible which gets 95% of our weekly attention. We would also like to thank our inexperience as a team which is where the majority of our useless ideas come from. We would like to thank our moms who none of this would have been possible, her constant telling us that “it’s okay to put in only 50% effort”.

Nah. It is easily the worst. Ironically because it has the most depth.

Actually, I’ve been playing multiplayer pvp fps games for about 15 years now, other games do/did have matchmaking issues as well, but it is amplified in overwatch because there are heroes with different kits that are good/bad against other heroes and further complicating things is difference in map styles

Basically this

Its not like halo or cod where everyone plays on a basically flat map and has equal access to the same weapons

They probably use the same matchmaker as the World of Warcraft arena PvP; Which is probably the same algorithm used for the electronic poker, blackjack, and slot machines at a casino.

Overwatch devs make trash heros now that all have lazy auto aim mechs. And they wonder why they have a laughable pro scene.

Fix’d that 4 u bb.

They add one hero with an auto aim skillshot = ruined the game.

I’m with ya.

To be fair though, ,y last two games today were with teams really bad and not capable of landing shots or getting kills.

Equally interesting, one of our Damage role players, a Sojourn had a total damage of 460 and 6 deaths, no one else on the team had half as much.

Quite a few players didn’t speak English, either and mentioned possibly bots being on their team.
Definitely an interesting match up for the typical weekend games.

Sorry you depend on auto aim to win. Since you were obviously triggered by this.

Also they put her will aim on CD so why play soldier when you have the easier “skill shot” to land for “tracking shot”

Go play Marvel Rivals. You’ll be begging for this type of algorithm.

I have indeed played rivals, and a lot actually

I stopped a while back though because there was too much sustain in the game, matchmaking didnt feel bad at all though. Can’t say what rivals feels like now, but overwatch now is CERTAINLY worse than rivals was at the last time I played
