It's been 398 days since the attack on Numbani

Over a full year, yet the workers are in the city of Numbani have yet to clean up and fix the airport. We are still having to deal with destroyed OR-15s and damage to the facilities.

How can a city take pride in itself; if it can’t even fix one thing. There has been no progress or updates when the airport will be functioning or repaired.

Please Blizzard and Jeff Kaplan can we get an update for when Numbani will be fixed.

I bet if they were human corpses they’d be cleaned up already

Omnics and humans are equal there? Yeah right.

I think they said something about leaving it as it is because it is a nice lore bit for new players and so…

Hi, I am a Numbani Airport employee.

We are on strike until fairer wages are accommodated. Please send a letter to the manager and let him know we deserve better compensation.

Thank you,
Andough

P.S. Don’t use the bathroom. That also has not been cleaned as well, and it’s been over a year. :slight_smile:

Maybe they’re keeping them there as a reminder to doomfist and how dangerous he is.
I don’t really know why tbh.
Would the or15s be considered omnics or robots? Because they don’t have personality cores like orisa

Doomfist came out in late july, which wasn’t even a year ago. Where do ~400 days come from?

The airport was destroyed when Orisa was teased in Feb.

To All Numbani Airport Employees on Strike;

This letter is to inform you that your demands cannot be met at this time. Upper Management has determined that, given the recent destruction of one of our terminals and the loss of so many valued Omnic Employees, we do not have the money to increase your wages. If you return to work at your current contract rates, Upper Management is prepared to discuss blanket wage increases once revenue reaches levels prior to the attack.

We hope you will see the reason in this and that you will work with us to help improve our city that is still reeling from the loss of our beloved OR-14 security force and the devastating loss of life. However, I am also here to inform you that if you do not cross this picket line, we will be highering workers from outside of the unions to get us back on track.

This strike has lasted more than a year, and the wounds from the terrorist attack cannot heal until we solve this. Please see reason.

Thank you,
Middle Manager, FiniteFletch

Michael Chu has said they intend to leave it like that. It helps convey the story of Orisa and Doomfist, as well as what happened there

Wouldn’t leaving in human corpses also increase the game’s age rating?

Blizzard cares more about age ratings than racism confirmed

They did got brought back as guards, so just single minded robots then.

Hello there and greetings from Germany…

The thing with airports is… it doesn’t have to get repaired,?let me tell you a little story about a german airport in Berlin/Germany…

This nice airport should be build several years ago,… he is there since several years… he is defect. He won’t be ready in a decade … sometimes… something goes wrong… long story short. The constructors of numbani airport first have to fix Berlin airport,

I bet you can use the numbani airport again in about 20 years.

Sincerely… little Reinhardt

I was just thinking this the other day. And they haven’t updated maps with lore in a while either. I thought they would have added the teased details on Echenwalde, but nothing changed. They have the stuff to do it and showed it in Brigitte’s introduction staged gameplay… So why keep it from us? Especially if their reason for not cleaning up other maps is for lore.

Forget numbani…how many times are the poor citizens of kings row going to be bombed? 2 years nonstop…those poor omnics…

(Oh you didn’t know that’s what we were doing?)

that robot is really wedged into the wall

OR-14 and Bastion units were supposed to be “single-minded” as well, but were still omnics. Numbani is also the city of peace with omnics, so it would make sense they’d have omnic police as well.

I’d just like to point out that poor Balderich von Adler has been left in his suit to rot without a proper burial in Eichenwalde since the Omnics attacked.
