There’s apex legends… but that game has locked heroes and battlepass
There’s valorant… but that game has locked heroes and battlepass
There’s gundam evolution… but that game has locked heroes and battlepass
There’s paladins… but that game has locked heroes and battlepass
Well, guess I’ll be seeing you all on day one of OW2 release
I’m in about the same boat. Unless the system looks much better than what we’re predicting, I will probably leave. Possibly not for good, but until I decide it’s worth my time.
Or people can speak their mind and fight for change for their favorite game. Jesus, the amount of Shilling in this forum makes Nintendo fans look down to earth.
I didn’t really play shooters before Overwatch, I don’t have any qualms giving them up entirely.
That said, I’ve already tried, and in the case of Paladins and Apex, enjoyed those games. The locked characters are not remotely comparable which switching mid-match isn’t even a thing, much less a core feature.
People like you don’t realize how this game works. The game is built on mirroring and countering, those games are not. (No clue about Gundam Evolution, no idea if that is even a FPS game…)
In all those other games (Still don’t know about Gundam Evolution), you have different characters but all use the same guns. You can still do very well with any character in the game as long as you understand their kit and the gunplay. In Overwatch, you have to win off of countering and mirroring compositions. With locked characters, you can’t do that.
Thread is just a trash point that’s been brought up numerous times before and has always lead to the same argument – Overwatch is not every other game.
I honestly hope Blizzard ignores the vocal minority here on the forums. They delayed Diablo Immortal due to the initial backlash, and yet it’s become one of blizzard’s most profitable games.
Okay, then keep players who don’t own all the heroes out of comp. Easy problem solved. Bonus, this makes it harder and/or more expensive for smurfs to keep smurfing.
No one knows how the system is going to work – what if someone misses a season of a battlepass and doesn’t have the character from that season? You’re just going to lock them out of comp until that hero comes again? They’re just not going to play the game.
Easy problem solved until you actually spend more than 5 seconds thinking about the pros and cons of the solution.
So wait, you thought about it limiting smurfs but not other kinds of players?
I’m yet to see an actual valid response come out of any of your posts – so far, it just seems like low quality “Blizzard can do no wrong” garbage.
I love how the people who defend locking heroes behind the battle pass use games that play totally differently and have different systems to Overwatch
You are comparing apples or oranges bud. Just because they got different characters does not make them the same and should be treated as such
Why dont you throw league in there as well, and smite. How about smash bros. Mortal kombat?
Mario kart is pay to win because you can play peach instead of mario. Meanwhile someones done the achievement and unlocked DiddyKong. Don’t even get me started on the people who bought the wario dlc. Actual greed from nintendo as usual. News at 10.
