While my team does nothing but die. Mercy looks at our Ana dying to a dynamite(No seriously, this happened multiple times already). Tanks do literally nothing to create space. Seriously, have so many people left that it’s even worse to make better quality games?
Not like the game had good matchmaking anyway but jesus christ this trash is on a whole another level. I’ve never witnessed such garbage matchmaking quality in my whole online gaming life.
And it will only get worse as more and more people leave.
Niddy,
I wouldn’t be complaining about the individual players. I would be complaining about the lack of core attention that the staff put off since December of 2017.
“Play nice, play fair” update hasn’t made the game better. ONLY significantly worse.
It is MORE noticeable as more players are online. The best course of action is to write here OR even write heavy-handled letters of disgust and why you, and many other players are NOT happy with this game.
What makes the game over-all a “bad experience” in general. Is the MIXING of new accounts. AND role locks.
Nobody is taking on these roles because they want to. They are DPS filling the roles because of Q times. Nobody is going to “learn their role” and they are NOT going to improve. Role Locking has been out since Last Summer and the game did NOT get better and it did NOT improve.
If players are CONSTANTLY buying and creating “alt accounts” that is where the game becomes WORSE, because Blizzard has to factor in. Players whom have played the game for some time, are now buying alt-accounts under a FALSE PRETENSE that somehow they will get higher “SR”. Which often I understand WHY players do this, but again…
nothing being said or done. Will ever fix these problems.
The deterioration in game quality is quite recent - I only started playing about 6 months ago and for the first 2-3 months I had lots of good, close games. I would say 60%+ of games were pretty good to excellent. Then came a bunch of patches and I had my daughter, who loves the game, asking me every day “have they fixed it yet” after the quality of games went off a cliff. I don’t know which patch specifically broke things but it was around the time when Orisa and Sigma were getting nerfed and some other balance changes. Since then I’d say the good to excellent games are about 30% at best.
TBH I’ve pretty much stopped playing games in the last week because they have been so bad recently. I just queue for DPS and then after 2-3 minutes I dequeue and queue again and just stay in skirmish. Then if there is a skirmish with 2 or 3 sombras or other really annoying characters when they are duped I can just dequeue and join another skirmish. I find it much more fun than the current matchmaking games in QP.
I think it is the Rein meta that is bad. It is even worse than double shield (his shield is stronger than the other 2 combined anyway). Even games which are close can seem quite monotonous just shooting at that 1 big barrier.
I’ve noticed no change in match quality the2 and half years I’ve been playing. You might just be getting bored of the game and so matches seem worse.
I stopped playing this game soon after they introduced 2-2-2. I was happy about the change, however forcing players to play in all brackets was terrible. People started to fill roles to get those competitive points in all categories - and until the rating got balanced, this resulted in terrible games.
I recently reinstalled it… and surprisingly, the games are still terrible.
Why? because for competitive you can only “solo queue”.
2-2-2 has made the “Find Group” useless - nobody tries to create or join groups anymore 
The Find Group was for people that were looking to work in a team - people willing to speak in the chat, to coordinate, to actually play Overwatch at its best! - it didn’t always work… but at least it was fun!
Now? it’s just solo-queue, where the communication is like this:
