{MEGATHREAD} Console Players Still Feeling like 2nd Class Citizens. [400 likes, 1500 responses]

Well at this rate I’m going to get myself a PC by the end of the year, hoping bitcoin market will stop growing, and they will make specific mining cards so that gaming pc’s can go back to rgeie normal (expensive enough) prices. I’m tired of wating for nothing to happen… since linear got ‘fixed’ it’s been 8 almost 9 months which was the last important change we got

Keep in mind that we had to have 3 max replied posts in order to get their attention for aim smoothing

True, it’s gonna take roughly the same probably just to get them to notice us

We are looked down upon as “plebs” from the PC community and treated like trash compared to PC who gets treated like royalty.

It’s stupid. All platforms should be able to have the same things in the game, and on top of that. Xbox and PS4 should be looked at balancing differently than PC. When will they wake up.

Why do PC players think they’re better then us anyways?

It’s part of the human psyche that compels us to denigrate those who chose a different group to validate their choices. We all experience it at one time or another.

The sad part is their failure to realize that we have chosen to be part of the same group, the Overwatch community. We could accomplish so much more together than divided.

Any bets on when we’ll get a response?

Maybe when Overwatch league is over.

Over as in the season ends, or over as closing down for good? Big difference. :slight_smile:

Hopefully by next season, when they have more time on their hands.

^It definitely feels like it’s going to be this. These forums have already been around for 2 months, and they STILL have not responded to a single Console-Specific thread. It’s deplorable, and shows even more that they don’t care… Like, one direct response on the main Overwatch Forums seems to be too much for us to ask for.

I can justify that with the bit that I directly called them out on their bull 130 posts back in this thread, even knowing that it was against the CoC. The fact neither post has been edited (except by me) or deleted shows this fact.

Hey guys gotta bump this to raise awareness

Ya bilz should do different patches for XBOX and PS4 players because the game is different then PC I do not get how they made OW on console and did not look at ever again. I hope they look at us soon or it will get even worse.

This was the Twitter response that I referenced when I called them out 3 weeks ago. I only figured just now that it might be better to make it a standalone thread.

I have a question Mates? I get ZERO feedback when reporting people on Console, is there still this issue for “SOME” people? I can’t tell you how many times i reported throwers and cheaters and nothing happens .

Maкё Cоиšоlє plaџёґs gяєaт agaїи : )

I also haven’t gotten any in-game responses, even despite my efforts in reporting throwers. I’ve seen times where it feels like lawless Console was even better than what we have now.

Granted, I only play in the Arcade though; not that it invalidates any reports. Regular comp is too much of a toxic cesspool to me that I avoid it. Yeah, I have seen throwers in the Arcade Modes too; but they are not nearly as rampant.

Its really bad, Last week i got so tired of reporting and no feedback i had to open a webticket and submit a ticket and wait for a response telling me "thanx,but this is not the right department , but we will look at this player but they will NOT update on what happened to him

:rage::rage::rage:… They sent me this link to Report future players - hacks@blizzard(dotCom) My only issue is that i Have to RECORD my in game player, Cut it up , Uploaded it you tube, and Email it and explain the Thrower and wait… : ( This is SO much work for a thrower. Also trust its bad QP and COMP as well .

…Wtf is that logic… It literally does not even make the slightest bit of SENSE to report THROWERS via that link.

ESPECIALLY considering that it doesn’t even have an option for Reporting Throwers. If they’re abusing a glitch sure; but throwing and glitching are two vastly different things…
The “Submit a set of instructions” wouldn’t make sense because no instructions are being submitted.
The last 4 options in it don’t make the slightest sense at all for Console Players, especially since we don’t have In-Game Text Chat.

Oh yeah it is. I avoid both modes for that reason.

I’ll stick to the Arcade to play modes like Total Mayhem & No Limits or the Game Browser to play Ana Paintball or just chilling in a Skirmish. People like watching my animated spray in the Skirmishes :’)

Hm Just noticed that the ping display isn’t working on Xbox. Anybody else experiencing this issue on Xbox or PS4?

They remove the ping functionality. There’s a new option that works the same right below (name eludes me). It will be about 20 numbers higher when gameplay starts.

Potential confusion with Latency? That’s what Ping & RTT was changed to.

I’m only guessing, so please bear with me :yum:
