Stuttering frame rate. Lag/input lag horrible. 5v5 is a chaotic mess. It’s not fun at all. Playing it I just hate every second. It does not feel like Overwatch at all. Probably won’t be getting it. They ruined what was once a good game. It feels like what playing a mobile version of Overwatch would feel like.

At least it will be free.
If i don’t like it I will not spend any money, tbh
Really really really bad game so far. Their only choice WAS to go free to play… no one would buy it otherwise. Terrible graphics, terrible changes to characters, super broken characters… It’s too far into beta to be this trash still…signs of things to come.

Yup, the game has become a chaotic deathmatch and has lost all strategy and set up of which the game was built on.
Its literally just run at the enemy and spam absurd amounts of damage at them til they die. There is no way to punish or be punished anymore for bad decisions.
Due to the removal of 1 tank dps no longer have anything to stop them just blindly walking at you. The game has gone from one that involves a lot of foresight and strategy, to one that you dont even have to think. Just walk forward and shoot damage. Its become so braindead boring. You got broken op heroes like sojourn who is just a widow that requires less skill and can 1 shot you at any range with extreme reliability.
I have played this beta for 10 hours now and there has rarely been a match where the team has actually grouped up and played together. Its just people off doing their own thing not actually caring about the game.
This is not Overwatch!
If they actually want this game to be a playable game, damage needs to be toned down massively across the board so that it isnt just a chaotic brawl for survival. Make people actually have to play with their team again. And then maybe the game will require bit of brain power to play.

Phew, i am glad i am not the only one feeling that way. It is just pure chaos and just rush in using ults. It doesnt feel strategic like OW1. Even countering characters with a specific character makes a lot less sense in ow2 because of all the changes.
They removed some shields and stuns of the game, i do understand that choice, but shields and stuns also add strategic perspectives and countering for fast characters/flankers (tracer/sojourn are so free).
They removed them yes, but didnt replace them with different features following the same purposes. The results is, the game have a lot less depth and is a LOT less satisfying (even when i win, i do not feel much happiness as we didnt do anything else than rush in and flanking and spamming ults).
Now, maybe it is just because the game is young ? So the strategies and optimizations have not been made yet ? Maybe comp mode will feel different ?
I am afraid it is the core of ow2 that is like that. Like you guys, i do not have much hope, but its my fav game so i will hope lol.

This is because most players are not good and it’s more visible now than ever, especially on new maps/modes/beta/non-comp.
