YOU no longer care about the competitive aspect of overwatch. It’s all about the casual players who play QUICK PLAY, buy their skins to play in QUICK PLAY, etc.
There are so many bugs, glitches, complaints about ranking issues and none of that ever gets acknowledged. Nobody complained about the ranking system in overwatch 1. Nobody complained about having a SR number shown in their profiles. NOBODY - absolutely nobody - complained about having their rank icons being shown in game. The last one actually just seems like it was implemented so you wouldn’t get roasted by the community for throwing different ranks in the same game. Since we can’t see what our teammates actually are, we are less likely to complain about the matchmakings. But it’s become more and more obvious, 30 seconds into the game and you can tell that something is off.
Not everyone is a casual player, although diversifying the skill range in quick play might be a good thing, this should have never been added to the competitive mode.
Please listen to the competitive community. We play this game for a reason and you guys have been treating us so poorly. Even famous-streamer takes are not taken into consideration (Aka mercy update).
We are not pleased with the ways things are going for competitive overwatch and even though this may not seem like it, it will hurt the future of overwatch pro league as well. GM players are supposed to be playing the best of the best in the community (before pro) but they are being forced to play a totally different game because of matchmaking issues. It wouldn’t be a problem if it was one game every season but this is becoming a recurring thing that is not being addressed whatsoever.
Please listen to the community. Take the time to read the issues in the forum since we can’t just send a ticket for in-game issues without “transcripts” or whatever the requirement is.
We don’t want this ranking system, we don’twant immediate queues where the difference between players skills is atrocious, we don’twant hidden player ranks, and we don’t want to play a quickplay matchmaking version of overwatch when we queue for COMPETITIVE.
Thanks
