SYMMETRA

Developer Comment: It turns out there was a setting on Sentry Turrets that let’s them immediately target enemies when thrown! Symmetra estimates this change increases their efficiency by 32.33%…repeating, of course!

Sentry Turret

  • Turrets can now target enemies while in-flight
  • Turrets have 60% damage resistance before sticking to terrain

This is actually kind of good?

I unironically want some of these in the actual game.

“Please don’t use this offensively”
This is funnier than I was expecting.

Hope they don’t revert (:

Junkrat

Dev Comment: Junkrat was a bit careless when packing his grenades so now they spill out of his pockets whenever he knocks himself back.

  • Total Mayhem
    • Drop grenades when launching yourself with Concussion Mine

Junkrat losing his marbles awhile in the air :joy:

the joke notes tells us that they KNOW what the balance issues are
useless turrets, mercy’s mag size…
they are either just taking a piss at the playerbase or lowkey telling us they are working on it

Some of these might be previews of future changes. Had a few items go live from prior April Fools patches.

More like they are aware of common complaints and are targeting them in their “joke patch notes”

Acknowledging what people saying isn’t the same thing as acknowledging they think it’s an issue

Reaper can move during shadow step.

Proof they CAN make the game better. They just refuse to do so.

Yep, this checks out.

Well it’s time to crack open a few cold ones and see how fun Rein is in this patch :smiley:

I don’t think this is signaling much of anything at all. This just seems like a good joke, don’t think they are trying to antagonize anyone or hint at anything.
