I know it’s probably a lot to ask, I haven’t read the entire of your original post so I apologise if this has been answered already but I was wondering if you know when 1.25 might go live? A week, two weeks or sooner?

The LFG tool and endorsements is literally the best thing ever to happen to Overwatch so far.

The question is: When will we see it come to live?!?!

Thank you for the details. :+1:
Are you allowed to tell us when the patch 1.25 will be released?

35

The post above did not elaborate on the release date of 1.25. Here is the last statement from Game Director Jeff Kaplan on the release of 1.25:

I see, thanks, yeah I’ve already read that but was hoping for a little more than “unknown” :slight_smile:.

Now, can you also explain why I get in a team with people who have about 300 levels less, while the enemy has some people with about 300 levels more than I have? This happens way to frequently… And makes it nearly impossible to win. 40% chance to win sounds pretty high compared to the games I get put in…

Level experience is not a contributing factor in the hidden matchmaking rating or the displayed skill rating of any player in any game mode.

I am aware. But it is the last official word on the release of 1.25. If I had to take a guess, a week from today at best.

42

I know. But it’s still really weird, unusual. Plus, an higher level means more time in the game, which means more experience. So I think this is still not fair.

43

When fixed LOS bugs?

P.D. thanks for answering

44

I am personally at XP level 1354 and I am still a gold/plat brat. Yeah I am experienced, but that is only a tiny factor in your overall skill in the game.

45

Why only some? Why dont you aim to fix all of them?
Sorry i know its not your fault, but Sombras state is really frustrating at the moment and the bugs arent really new.

This is great information, thank you very much.

Since we’re on the topic of SR in general, do you have anything you can share with us about players who have reported that while unable to climb on their primary account, their secondary started them at a significantly higher SR? There seems to be this idea that no SR resets are artificially holding some people back because of their match history.

Thanks again!

This is a good question, I will add it to my post above.

Do you ever get in a game with people with the same SR, but 800 levels lower?
Because I see it happening pretty often. You will probably beat someone with Lvl 500,right?

I am now at a level where I am the highest experienced player in a majority of my matches and about 80% of the players I encounter are still in the 100-500 level range. If I was carrying games merely because of my experience level, I would not be a gold/plat brat.
