Thing is, Ratty, I don’t necessarily hate them. Before Season 5, the On Fire voicelines didn’t appear so much, and when they played occassionally back then, they actually were really good. But once Season 5 made On Fire official, then, the frequency of the On Fire voicelines went up dramatically. That made me dislike them. So initially, I liked them, but the frequency was hard to deal with and still is today. That’s why I’m saying, keep the lines, work harder to attain them, and that frequency goes down to a level like it was back in 2022 to early 2023 where you hear it only a few times a round compared to about 15 to 25 times or something in just one round. Isn’t that much easier to deal with? Makes the lines actually enjoyable because it’s much more spaced out and realistic.
They will definitely do rank reset… yikes. Happy i uninstalled this mess. These guys dont know how to make a game or how to manage a game.
I wish the devs a great new year. With another company.
Can we go back to stable overwatch? 6v6 is great, remove passives and the s9 changes and we’re golden.
From what little data we have, 5v5 was just proven to be a waste of time and resources… Please remove the Overwatch 2s branding, just go back to Overwatch (this is not a sequel, but a -0.5 downgrade)
Now to go clock in for a full shift of being a support in Rivals.
It has been an eventful year for Overwatch. I’m really enjoying 6v6, it has made me want to play tank again after barely touching the role for some time now. Love the Avatar skins too. I really like the drums that play when Venture burrows. Thank you for all your hard work. This is one of my favorite games ever.
I’m offended!
They didn’t call it the Directors Cake because we all got a slice on cake with each update this year, some sweet and others sour. But in the end we all got a slice of cake and we appreciate it. 
Perhaps they might call it the Directors Cake next year 
The cake is a lie
no junkrat skin? no hours logged into ur game. boo hoo ):
i like to thank blizzard for sombra really, the degenerate troll playstyle.
“All i want for christmas is sombra”

You’re not supposed to be playing to get stuff. If you just play for fun and view the rewards as a bonus, you’ll have a better time. That’s how it’s designed.
Don’t forget they let us know that 50% unmirrored win-rate for Blockzard was too low and 55-56% is ok. Meanwhile Roadhog with his 39-44% says hi!
They’re going away, presumably never returning. This has been known since they were first announced. It’s like this game has some “FOMO quota” to meet or something, I swear
Nope, that was never stated, so it shouldn’t have been assumed.
If something isn’t stated with these clowns, and the alternative to the assumption involves FOMO, you can bet the FOMO option is what they’re going with.
address cheating. game is unplayable with the amount of cheater running rampant 24/7 in every single game and mode.
Happy festive time.
Happy christmas to everyone at blizzard and here have a Good one 
with chatGPT to work on his CV
merry xmas and a happy new one
I am glad to see weapon customization is something brewing. Customization is what is needed most. The game after years of sameness needs fresh life via talents/tweaks like what we got in Junkensteins lab. That would bring the fun back to Overwatch. Right now Marvel is capitalizing on their newness and customization would bring a similar feeling to Overwatch. I haven’t played Overwatch since Rivals came out because of the freshness there. But I would love to have something to come back for. 6v6 doesn’t cut it.
To blizzard to Aaron, or whoever it may find its way to:
I’m annoyed. Y’all decided to run this while everyone is busy with Christmas. I’ve been waiting for 6v6 to come back since day one of ow2, and I only got to play for 2 days before I had to leave town.
I’ve never liked 5v5, but this “test” already feels 10x more fun to me than this game ever has.
It’s not even close for me, 6v6 IS overwatch. This is the game I’ve missed. The game I fell in love with. The game I don’t grudgingly play, but I genuinely feel addicted to.
I used to play competitive every day and loved it, but in overwatch 2 I refuse to play comp as it doesn’t feel fun at all to me. I refuse to play tank as the pressure feels awful and the salt is horrible to deal with. To me 5v5 feels tedious and stressful, and feels more like a solo cod style death match than a team based cooperative strategy shooter.
As a day 1 overwatch classic player who purchased the game, as a fan from its conception… a player who migrated from tf2 and made it my main game.
As a player who has been dedicated to this franchise and wasted ridiculous amount of my time religiously supporting everything along the way, buying skins to support the game, trying to make light of even the worst changes… if 6v6 isn’t in the game I quit.
I hate to say it, but I will absolutely boycott overwatch during any period 6v6 isn’t available.
I’m done playing a game I don’t like. Just give me back the game I bought.
I don’t care about Q times, I don’t care about “dps agency” or whatever excuses are used to brush off the 5v5 change. I’m sick of it.
And I’m sick of you adding all these modes into quick play and forcing me to play them, with no option to just play the mode I want to. All I’ve ever wanted from quick play was more payload, hybrid, and assault variations. But with all this bloat, 4/5 matches are modes I never wanted to play.
I truly feel like the fun in overwatch has been lost through these decisions. The game I enjoyed I am no longer allowed to play. And if I leave the modes I don’t want, it’s a temp ban.
Why is all this bloat not put into an arcade playlist? Are you going to keep adding more modes until we just aren’t able to play the original game? It’s horrible. I’d much rather you come up with some more beautifully made hybrid maps, or find a way to make assault fun and add it back, but instead nope, have fun playing another tug of war mode.
(It’s like if you put CTF into quick play during ow1… it’s a whole different game and is not nearly as fun. If you wanted to play some hanamura and Hollywood and it put you into ctf 5 times in a row, it would be absolutely annoying and offputting… that’s exactly what qp feels like now.)
Like can’t you just make an arcade mix mode?
If it were upto me I’d do this
-
Add flashpoint, push, clash, and whatever else into one “tug of war” arcade pool
-
create more hybrid and payload maps and add them in qp
-
rework assault to be less annoying with what we’ve learned (wave spawning, maybe an attackers passive if there’s only 1 minute left to encourage a final push? Just ideas)
-
OR look into creating more of a call of duty style matchmaking system. Core modes instead of quick play, which you can select any specific modes from and search?
man I just want to binge play payload and hybrid and I have no option to.
Please bring back previous WOW skins. And many more like Thunder Doomfist, Shock Roadhog, Jjonak Zenyatta, and we will make it worth your while. At the least I will, bringing them back would help a lot of people.
