Heard a clip from DeemziesTV, who had an art dev in his chat, that the current lootbox animation is just a temporary placeholder for them as they do plan to make lootboxes have the old opening animation. :))
Can’t post clips but you can maybe find it on his twitch channel where he talks about it.

I’m not surprised to hear that, but at the same time, I’m not actually fussed about the current placeholder. It does its job just fine and I’m gonna skip it most times anyway. The Tracer and Doom art on the Unranked/Comp cards look kinda scuffed, though. If they’re reviewing any art, I’d revise that.
I’d rather they make the endorsement system a bit more fluid again. Now it’s not possible to close the endorsement window with n a second time and it’s slightly annoying, since I’ve been doing that for at least fourteen seasons now. Also, I really dislike how inconsistent they can be with the keys. Scoreboard is Tab during the game, so why does it switch to F1 in the post-game?

Yeah I like the current placeholder for lootboxes when opening them all at once, I’d like the old one back for individual boxes.
Endorsements, and I know people will hate it, need to be like how they were in OW1. They are quite literally a useless metric to progress and track in their current state.
Sportsmanship, Good teammate, Shotcaller.
It was nice giving these upvotes to certain players as it would help identify how people are possibly going to play on your team, since it showed the percentage of what people upvoted you for around the endorsement level.

It was basically a community-given rating. Kinda funny how accurate it was.
- New account with mostly green endorsements = New player
- Old account with mostly green endorsements = Low-skill player
- New account with normal endorsement ratios = Alt account
- Level 0 = Recently banned
- Level 1 = Habitual leaver
- Level 2 = Frequently plays in groups
- Level 3 = Ordinary player
- Level 4 = Probably not a DPS main
- Level 5 = Definitely not a DPS main
I miss being able to see it in the scoreboard

Lootbox animation some real first world problems for ya’ll.
It was a let down to the nostalgia to open the lootbox and not see the coins land and show the items. But it’s really not a big deal to me, I am just happy they are back and we can get quite a few more skins for free once again.
What? People actually cared about that? I just picked the first option every time. And given that was usually the biggest percent of almost everyone I’m pretty sure most people did the same lol
Is the highlight intro animation also a WIP….cause they’ve been awful since OW2
