Googling or searching for passed discussions is always encouraged over creating the same topics
No, because “companies” can make games that mess up our Console. Like put in bugs that mess with your storage.
Topics nearly a year old are usually free game to open up again. In fact, I think that’s encouraged
Yes…ptr would just go through the same process as live … It doesn’t become instant just because it’s ptr
They already answered the question. No need to ask again. When they figure something out they will let us know.
They also said no more reworks…
Stares at brig on ptr
And mercy was in a good state
Stares at her nerfs right after
Literally all 222 is is things they didn’t want at launch.
Like, you can make a post and ask a thing. Especially to a year old reply.
That’s not a rework, that’s number changes. A rework would be taking away her shield and replacing it with something else.

But it wouldn’t get the instant updates like on PC PTR
Mercy is considered a rework and they had a number of changes…
Ok… That’s still not the same as not having a ptr at all…
Valk is a rework, but they didn’t make the “no more reworks currently” comment until after that change.
it it seems like you are misunderstanding the use of the PTR. It is for finding critical bugs so the devs can fix it fast. They can’t do that on consoles since every patch has to go through microsoft and sony every time.
Also they are already delaying the PC patches just so the consoles can get the live patch at the same time. You should be happy that you aren’t few patches behind tbh.

I understand…but your logic was , ‘brig isn’t a rework’
If mercy was, so is brig. 
So devs aren’t set in stone…almost like they are people
Necroing is considered not great and new posts encouraged
Op asked for a thing. There’s nothing wrong with that.
Especially since it is possible.
Yeah, trying things and finding bugs imo, is fairly good for players.
For example…Hammond breaking console.
Would have been great to have a ptr to catch that .

Valk is a Whole new ability. Nothing about Brig is vastly differerent from before.
Unless it’s a whole new ability like Valk, Sym’s wall, Torbs new ult, it’s not a rework.
Dmg changes, hp changes, nerfs, buffs all fall under tweaks or QoL changes. They are not reworks.
Armor pack has been wholly reworked.
Rein is getting an entire new ability never existed In The game…
Rework isn’t define by the devs concretely. Plenty consider Lucio reworked
It’s still armor pack. Same ability with a QoL change.
It is not. Armor pack functions differently and even has a new sound.
Well . . .
Doesnt sound like sunshine and rainbows to me. . .
Maybe but that means they have to do 3 patches for each version and every time when they update something it has to go through sony and Microsoft which takes time and money anyway.
They will waste more time managing 2 more versions than actually working on fixing the patch.
Not to mention pretty much no one uses the PC PTR and it will be used even less on consoles due to the even smaller population.
