Patch 1.43 clarification

Kind of? If you narrow it down to individual heroes and not the roster as a whole.

Why does it take misinformation to come out before you will touch base with the player base and give us an expectation of when updates will roll out?

What’s the harm in keeping the community more informed on a regular basis? We understand delays happen, but I fail to see why there isn’t more of an effort to keep us in the loop.

Why do you believe the shield nerfs will make his immortality stronger?

Weaker shields means there will be a need for some sort of protection from dying since shields won’t be up as long.

Since barrier/protective tanks cannot protect their team as well as before, if there is a Roadhog or Wrecking Ball in the match, the game play will suffer from being too fast.

Exactly. Most people main a hero or two and metas tend to make heros more viable pending on Rank.

I frankly been super lucky in the heros I played.

When Double sniper was a thing I was practically an Orisa 1-trick and I wrecked that meta.

When Goats came out I was an Ana/Mei 2-trick and I both worked with and destroyed that meta.

Out of all the Meta’s that have existed old and new I’d say Goats was the worst in it’s impact on the game.

I mean it essentially was the one that created double barrier and wrecked some of my favorite tanks.

We can agree double barrier is bad but I don’t find it any more oppressive then any other metas. The most boring? Oh yeah, that view may be subjective but I can build a really strong case for that one

I like how the forum provides handy auto-links to the mentioned misinformation from people linking back here. :laughing:

You guys need to post more often on these forums. It will help cut down on the rumors and such.

If i’m not mistaken the patch cycle from PTR to live is usually 3 weeks, why wait one more week for this one?

Damn thanks for finally speaking up!
Great to hear it’s coming out soon! :heart:
By the way Moria nerf is great I enjoy playing all Supports, but her auto aim might need a slight nerf still, talking all ranks.
Just my opinion obviously.

Very much agreed. It’s crazy. There are too many doomfist players exploiting it too.

But we can’t start playing tanks cause Reaper and Mei still untouched.

And thus oppressive on the player base

Thank you for the clarification!

He said “unforseen circumstances”. Probably a bug or delay with console.

Yes but he said that in case the patch is delayed more after next week. It’s still 4 weeks instead of the usual 3, why?

Are Mei/Reaper/Doomfist staying intact with their 50 extra HP, all the buffs they got to counter GOATS and still not reverted while they still have their ‘Oh crap!’ buttons saving them from every misstep? (DF has shields, mobility and 1 shot potential on CD instead) Or will there be an early Christmas gift regarding them?

“misinformation being spread about” Just [Removed] communicate with the playerbase. Are we going to have some actual content from here to 2021? Or the game will remane stale for 1year+ ?

No one said it wasn’t oppressive. I’m saying it wasn’t any more oppressive then any other meta. Whether it be due to hero viability, boredom, or any other factor.

Those rights are reserved for Goats.

I see, I read it wrong. I’m unsure. It’s a big patch so there could be problems before they go live with it. Both an event and a huge balance change patch.
