List of stuff that will kill the game fast

General Discussion
1
  • Overpriced cosmetics

  • trash rewards in the battlepass and no coin rewards

Do i need to write that you’re not giving enough coins? in what world 30-50 coins a week is a good thing when a single skin costs 1900? and do i need to mention the lack of regional prices is absurd?

  • balance not being quick enough AS ALWAYS

  • failing to address the real issue of characters AS ALWAYS

  • Map pool literally NO ONE asked for this, i’m tired of playing the same maps everytime i wanna play ranked games.

  • lack of hero bans

this is extremely necessary in the future because you just cannot balance the game by youself so allow the players to at least have a take in who they want to play with/against. If you want to avoid "ban metas" then figure out WHY said heroes are being banned all the time and address it, its not hard.

  • turning tank heroes into raid bosses rather than trying to balance them properly as tank heroes and thus ruining every game mode outside of RQ

  • hero being unlocked at tier 55 which will come back to bite ya, mark my words.

This is a checklist of things that will kill the game fast, OW is an amazing game which can only be killed by the hands of its creators, literally no other game came close to dethrone it but yall made OW jump the throne itself.

Shes included in the balance not being quick enough lmao. She’ll only be getting nerfs in season 2 if they don’t slide in a nerf in tomorrows patch that we don’t know about.

Agree with most things but not these:

It really isn’t. it is only going to kill the game even faster for anyone who is maining meta heroes.

More like going 5v5. Playing a tank is more miserable than ever in role q.

7

I do agree.
OW2 has the same miserable fate of OW1. Same mistakes same end.

PVE is the only thing that has a possibility to keep the game alive, but still we have to see how well done it will be and most of all how financially greedy they will be around PVE.

8

Thats literally why i said

Not really, its on the contrary, playing tank doesn’t feel miserable at all while support does.

9

Probably he answered before u edit the post

10

Massacring/ruining heros with reworks (See deletion of Sym 2.0, Torb, Mei)

11

This.
Nothing OP said but this, really.

12

There is no such thing as balanced game especially when comes to OW.

Also since I have been forced into playing support for missions I can say playing support is most relaxing role of all. Tanks gets the blame for everything now.

13

One big thing i think you missed is ranked. Matchmaking is screwed, ranking itself is buggy and bad, and there are still way too many leavers, throwers and toxic people.

Its literally ow1 ranked but worse.

14

That is the only thing i know they will fix which is why i didn’t add there. The rest is debatable.

15

isnt the game going the route of heroes of the storm? i heard HOS tried to get real greedy with cosmetics and monetization also but failed

dont really know since i only tried that game once for 10 minutes lol

16

agreed with everything but this. We’ve tried this and its trash. Its terrible

Remember the damage that role queue did, and how even tho it made the game “feel better” it was overall really destructive as well and the game needed to radically change just to justify it? Thats what hero bans being committed too would do. It would SUCK.

17

i will be honest i think the price for cosmetics are insane and sometimes you will get just for you stuff that doesnt even apply to characters you play

18

lmao how you gonna say map pools are gonna kill the game and then mention hero bans being a good thing.

The more variety the better, aslong as it aint 2cp.

19

That’s an interesting choice of tense you’ve got there.

20

Good list. I would add rubbish rank system to that.
