I’ll leave the balancing of heroes/maps/competitive mode to the devs and professional players but there are some things I’d love to see in OW2 that could enhance the overall experience.
-
blacklist certain maps/gametypes - Maybe limit the list to one map or gametype to prevent people from playing only King’s or whichever their favorite map is but I would love to have the freedom to eliminate at least one map that I genuinely dislike playing.
-
opt out of backfilling - I’m surprised this isn’t an option in OW since it’s pretty annoying to constantly get zoned into a game that is about to end or already over (in defeat).
-
spectate competitive games - Obviously put some delay to prevent people from ghosting but it would be great to watch my friends play in competitive since we can spectate them in other game modes.
-
guilds - I feel like this will come about in OW2 in some capacity since I remember Jeff talking about it in the past. Would make grouping and playing with friends a lot more accessible.
-
rework endorsement system - This last one is more a preference thing but I’ve always felt it was kind of counter productive to have your endorsement level decay. It should just be a static number of X amount of times you’ve been commended for Y reason whether it is shot-caller, good teammate or sportsmanship. Sorta like how CSGO has it.
Anyways that’s my TL;DR wishlist for OW2 - anyone else have anything they’d like to add or remove from this list?
