If you like OW2 so much

Why not queue for TDM? It is basically the same thing. Not only that but you are not bound to 122 either for those who thinks role q sucks.

Yeah, it’s about the same as long as you have your monitor turned off.

Because its not TDM. Simple as that. Your OW2 hate posts are betting weaker and weaker. You have to keep it up until OW1 shuts down.

Explain how it is not. It is all about who clicks more heads.

If you like OW1 so much, why aren’t you playing it instead of posting whatever this is? :rofl:

TDM is the best mode in this game, real talk.

Because TDM does not have objectives besides killcount, has an insane respawn rate where tanks are massively overpowered, has incredibly small maps, and has no variation.

Just because you can actually get kills outside of ability and ult stacking doesn’t mean its “TDM”

TDM is my favorite mode as long as nobody picks Roadhog or 3 tanks. If the game was balanced I might go as far as saying it was “good”.

I like role q and i like 5 v 5. Support main and no its not the same as deathmatch. Very terrible comparison.

OW2 to me felt basically exactly like OW1 but slightly less annoying because theres less hard CC and shields. I dont quite get the exaggerated hatred on the forums. I get the feeling a lot of people walked in wanting to hate it, played three games, and then never launched it again.

I, personally, wanted to love it. The idea that OW as we know it will be gone soon is an idea that fills me with dread and despair. And so for that reason, I truly, desperately hoped that it would feel just as good as OW1 does. That I would play it and breathe a sigh of relief when I realized it at least felt the same. But, sadly and to my horror, it did not. No matter how much I tried to force it. No matter how many chances I gave it. It just didn’t feel good. So I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s not even close to the same game to me.

Everything I did not like about OW2:

  • 5v5 gameplay in general
  • How snowbally matches felt
  • How quickly it devolved into a deathmatchy experience
  • How difficult it seems to feel impactful as a support, babysitting players seems like all I have time to do and the new rules means I just don’t build my ult as fast this way
  • How impossible it feels to mount any sort of comeback when you’re losing and the tank skill gap between the two teams is large. In OW1 the tanks could often swap roles with eachother to maybe change our fate, but now, it just doesn’t seem possible
  • How free mobile heroes are to just do whatever they want
  • How empty the maps look and feel with 2 less bodies
  • The UI as presented
  • The Scoreboard as presented
  • The team ult charge icon being a progress wheel instead of a number
  • The font
  • The HUD
  • The voicelines playing non-stop
  • The new weapon sounds
  • How clunky it feels, especially aiming
  • Damage/boost/heal on-screen indicators
  • Visual clutter
  • The ping system
  • Audio changes/in-game notification sounds
  • Voiceline delivery/acting
  • The golden weapons
  • The removal of the on fire system
  • The removal of portrait borders

And sure, plenty of these things might get hugely improved at launch, but I have my doubts. And as for the 5v5 gameplay, that’s here to stay and that’s where my biggest gripes with the game and its direction lay.

Ah yes.
The balance around 5v5 is 100% exactly the same as 6v6.

That means, it would be completely fine if 6v6 is in arcade.
Why not just play in arcade mode or custom game modes, once OW2 releases, then?

Not only that, but you aren’t bound to a faster paced game, either, since you can reduce the speed of the heroes chosen to play in the custom games, if you’re one of those who think that a faster paced game sucks.

Actually, it is. You have that one user going tank in TDM while the rest is from the DPS roaster.

The only difference two of them are forced to go support.

Boom. OW2.

I’m convinced you haven’t even played TDM. Or OW2. Or both.

I think it just kinda bottomlines to if “your character” currently feels good in OW2.

Soldier, Lucio, Moira mains, are loving life.

Mei, Hog, and about half the Doom mains. Not so much.
