Our latest Developer Update addresses big changes to heroes, new ways to unlock Mythic hero skins, and gameplay updates in the seasons to come.
This is absolutely amazing Iâm so excited for the new updates coming season 10!
Hearing that we will be able to earn any mythic skin from the past from season 10 and that all future hero releases will be free is an amazing and fantastic change! Thank you for listening to your playerbase!
Do you have any plans to support the Mac platform? This would be amazing as a Mac gamer! At the moment I use Crossover 24 and GFN cloud gaming but a native port would be even better (in some ways.)
Would you consider an option to unlock Switch consoleâs frame rate from 30 FPS? Or give players the option to lower their settings such as render scale for a higher frame rate? I know this is unheard of in the console space, but this would be really cool.
I think itâs amazing that we have Overwatch on so many different platforms now. I regularly play on my Mac, Steam Deck, ROG Ally, (and I might start playing on console if you guys supported mouse and keyboard there heh.)
Please could you consider bringing back the pink Rosahart Reinhart skin and Pink Mercy charity skin? Also what about earning previous battle pass skins outside of Mythic skins? Sadly I missed out on the Demon Reinhart skin which I think was unlocked at level 60.
Many players have expressed a desire for greater transparency in competitive. I think one huge step in this direction would be to make it so that players can see their own MMR value. Please consider this for the future.
Cool cosmetic changes.
What about gameplay, the more immediate concern?
Wow, nothing good once again.
-
Heroes free? Like they always shouldâve been?
-
Mythics? Who cares about skins?
-
New maps? They have all been bad so far, and now youâre going to rework all the good maps as well ???
And⊠thats it? You seriously got nothing more to say?
Removing heroes from the battle pass is a massive W. This was a really good dev update, Iâm cautiously optimistic right now!
that is all ? lol. huge
Only took like a year and a half but they finally undo the worst change in the history of OW with the paywalled heroes
Now undo the second worse decisionâŠ.remove hero dupes from MHâŠ.everyone is getting a nice taste of what they do to the game now with QP hackedâŠ.theyre even worse in MH (objectively most broken thing in the gameâŠ.and yes that includes the games mmâg and balance)
Hey, leave Esperancia alone! (yeah all the other ones have been terrible, some worse than others)
I mean they picked out some standout maps with big problems, including some of the OW2 maps, so nah, Iâd say theyâve made the right choice in making changes to existing maps.
Look at Junkertownâs S9 additions for evidence that they can, in fact, make good changes to maps.
Yeah Iâm pretty horrified that this is all we got.
Now for the real second worst: 5v5.
âoverwatch community trying to not come off as being bratty children challenge (impossible)â
like people are upset they had heroes in the bp, then they are upset they are removing em
ppl were upset they didnt get coins in the bp, then decided to be upset when they added it
at this point why should they listen to players?
VENTURE GAMEPLAY PLEASE!
That could hqve just been an article
Yeah Iâm off to the Comp OW subreddit for more constructive posts-at least people there are more appreciative and less angst ridden lmao
Majority of the time here itâs damned if you do damned if you donât
They are doing the bare minimum, maybe worse. I just want OW to be good, but that will never happen with these guys in charge.
Why even hype us for the the dev video for so many days only to end in 2 mins?. Only to announce another announcement.
If âThis could have been an emailâ was a developer update.
it actually is one, its both.
yeah like i get it, the game hasnt had the best features since ow2 droppedâŠbut they are changing it???
whats next, they balance the game perfectly and the response is âwoooooow they finally fixed balance, should have done that a while agoâ
YEP
people want the changes but they wont be happy once they get em
because thats what most dev updates are
they arnt going to spill all the secrets of the universe to you in a 40minute long video
if you go back and look at the jeff kaplan era dev updates they were bout the same duration, averaging around 5minutes with a few that went longer. (5minutes btw is how long this one is)
All the things theyâve mentioned is what a lot of the community have wanted for a long time?
LikeâŠcome on. None of what they said was even bad.
Itâs ok to still want more, but be realistic. You didnât really expect them to announce likeâŠI donât know?.. weâre going back to 6v6 or something did you?
Theyâve teased new heroes, teased new maps that are coming, what their plans are to rework existing maps that people have huge problems with, shown that all heroes are now going to be free (which they should have been in the first place like), shown that we can earn any previous mythic we want now, that weâre going to be testing the new mode/map in season 10.
I donât really know what people expected tbh?
Lol @ all the people that said heroes in BP was necessary
âŠsoooooo what happens if people bought the new heroes separately for money outside of their battlepass season? Do they get something for their money at the very least?
Is this trolling? If you donât care about new heroes, skins, or maps, what do you care about?
