Please keep the 6v6 mode or at least extend it

My friends and I have been really enjoying OW again. If possible, please extend the event and/or make it a permanent mode. The queue times are less than a minute since it was released, feels nice.

2 tanks per team is amazing, even though balance is perhaps questionable for some heroes, it feels great. The amount of freedom you have as a tank now is refreshing, not to mention trying out synergies (always wanted to play DF with another tank).

Hopefully OW goes back to 6v6.

100% agree, it doesnt fix everything but it’s superior to 5v5 - i play tank again.

I cannot play Overwatch in 5v5 ever again after it has been re-introduced. As soon as this playlist is gone, I uninstall. KEEP IT UP BLIZZ.

I have to wonder whether it’s a good idea to do the min 1/max 3 test instead of doing another 222 patch and leaving it up for the rest of the season.

I am wondering that too.

I have to say, I really enjoyed the 5v5 1min/5max Open Queue modes that were in QP last year. But to say those modes were better than 2-2-2 RQ? Thats a tough choice for me…

I liked Limit 2 as well but there’s been a gamechanger since then. Overwatch now has a rival, and my current feeling is that OW is the place for RQ while that game is the place for OQ.

I’ll probably like min 1/max 3 more than 222 but I reckon I’ll be in the minority.

With MR out now, it will make for an interesting path forward for OW2 in terms of Role Queues. I predict various RQ rules will continue to be a core aspect of QP (as it already has been for a long time) since MR lacks it. And Im all for it. OQ can be fun as well, but I much prefer the structure of RQ and RQ limits.

I like OQ, so if I can’t have that, I want min 1/max 3 at least. :+1:

Trash mode IMO with that balancing, so dont miss it at all. And I was hardcore 6v6 advocator

I like the 6v6. I also would like this to be a permanent option. Though, I’d pick mystery hero role queue over it. So I’d vote that first and 6v6 second. No interest in the 5v5 any longer.

I do think Soldier and Sojourn are wonkily powerful in whatever they did there. So they need to fix that.

Rivals will probably go role lock eventually (min 1) but will remain oq.

There is nothing that makes it impossible for it to me permanent, they just won’t do it cause they’ve got more “tests” to do. I have no idea what more testing do you need, though. Everyone saying they love love it, they’re having fun, it’s almost like the game was created for 6v6. The only other 6v6 option I could see being desired is the no limit one, but with the live build of the game and not May 2016.
Instead they’re gonna be doing some weird “no more than three, no less than one” version of 6v6 for some reason.

They don’t have a choice anymore. Either they keep 6v6 even as it is right now, or they watch the tank players that came back go and play MR instead. Its that simple.

I’ve been having a bit of a crisis today thinking about how this test is ending soon, truth be told.

After playing 6v6, I don’t want to go back to playing 5v5 again. I’ll probably get back into playing some singleplayer games like Crysis and Doom until the next test comes.

I have very little interest in OW outside of 6v6.

Make a new mode for all OW2 maps as arcade maps
Rework/Remake some 2CP maps so they can be back in rotation.
ADD 5v5 to the arcades.
Change both unranked and competitive to 6v6.
Rework some skills here and there.
Bring back OW1 ending screen (cards & all)
Rework/Remake Progression (truth be told its the most useless thing on OW2 right now)
Revive the PVE you promised Blizzard.
Remove unranked penalty (so people can leave as much as they want)
Put a real human behind the screen to take care of the report system (so people can feel free to comunicate again w/o having fear of being banned for saying hi in VC)

Done.

agreed, more fun overall than 5v5. But we need another balance patch,
some heroes are oppressive such as widowmaker

Im coming to that stark realization as well. I visited the other side, and its bright, lush green with “6v6” in the open field.
