Can’t play with this roleq. Players lock in 1 character and play nothing else the entire game. I know that I am low ranked and sh’it, but it isn’t even fun to play at this point. Trollers every game. At least 1. Doesn’t matter if you’re nice or toxic. They will play their character until the last 30 sec of a game and then change.
Uninstalling until the season is over
I mean, yeah nothing really changed. It’s the illusion of order that people like, I think.
So instead of taking a golden opportunity to practice and learn in the beta comp season, you’re going to uninstall until a season that actually affects your SR?
We can learn so much right now, but we are complaining about 2-2-2 instead.
One tricks aren’t new to OW. Why don’t you try playing a hero in the role you selected that compliments the one trick, instead of saying they should change?
I’ve picked up Hammond and Ana to a surprised amount of success.
Well i guess its goodbye cause role que is here to stay.
Atm its beta till sept first.
It is what it is.
Adapt or go somewhere else
It would be naive to think they’re doing nothing with the data gathered during this “beta”. I’d be willing to bet they’re using it to build MMR profiles by role. Why else would a “beta” be on their production client?
Sure, but I’m not suggesting a player throw or play badly on purpose, just take a risk, especially if you’re in the low ranks already.
That’s a really weak argument. Pre-role lock people could do this as well, what makes it different now?
*edit, just so people are aware: I’m not in favor of RQ but I did want to point out that this is a weak point to bring up.
What I would do if it were me would be to use the data gathered here to build out role-based profiles based on role performance in comparison to the people they played against and distribute from top to bottom accordingly after a total MMR and SR wipe. The only people this would realistically hurt are the people who threw or left games during the “beta”
I can see the benefits to that. I’d silently reset MMR for the new placements.
Because bad 1trick gengi wasnt a thing before?
Yeah, it does really suck when a teammate is getting hard countered & is really only feeding the enemy team. I try to be as nice as possible with suggestions, but most people say they don’t know how to play any of the suggested characters. I feel like 222 screws players like me over who can flex, are willing to work with the team so we are all playing heroes we are comfortable with that counter the enemy, because now I can’t swap to a different role when one of my teammates is too new or is a (bad) one-trick.
I really wish competitive was for higher level players, but they’ll never do that because of all the people buying new accounts to reset their SR/MMR for placing higher for bragging rights.
It’s already implemented and it’s not going away no matter what.
Deal with it.
Step 1) Go to the LFG screen
Step 2) Make a group: check profiles, make sure people have stats you like and a mic
Step 3) Realize by being patient and doing this you will rarely get one tricks or trolls
Classic Quickplay says Hi!
How is this any differant from the previous seasons, now atleast I don’t have 5 people locking dps
I would much rather have my team locking road, zarya, genji, tracer and brig than my team locking genji, tracer, hanzo, soldier and widow
I play only open queue and someone locking into 1 hero is not the problem. The problem are the players themselves. Last game I had a junkrat that sat at 10 elims when all tanks + healers had above it. Game before that something similar with a moira/sigma (obv not only about elims). Players that have no business being anywhere near even silver are the problem.
Hi. Hows OW2 suiting you after role Qs been in the game for 4 YEARS
How do you even find a 4 year old thread?
I mean, it’s easier to compensate for someone who’s unwilling to switch in OQ, since you can choose any role.
