Pretty sure we won’t see anything from devs till next week (Jeff responded)

[timabolt-1631]

It’s more likely to be a new map.

[Doomfish-21368]

Let’s Highlight the last words - No Dev Update

This means no YouTube video with Jeff

Which means besides whatever on the balance patch (which he talked out earlier)

This not a few things that he would do a video on

Not

New Hero
New Map
Major rework like Sym or Torb
New Social Feature

So what does that leave…

Well, something lore related

Like a comic

Or a News Article

see more here: 🛰 Let’s think logically about guessing the Surprise (not big, highlight little surprise)

[LeotheLion25-1331]

Can you stop posting videos.

[Doomfish-21368]

Technically I have, though mostly because Overwatch central never posted any and was expecting them too.

Seem to be overworrying about McCree and Ashe.

Whatever just proves they never tried Other heroes that much.

[MeAmeøuØÐeie-1102]

So…
Do you have a set date for the grand update that will make a complete reinstall in the game?

[Jukebox-2658]

@MeAmeøuØÐeie-1102

Do you have a set date for the grand update that will make a complete reinstall in the game?

Didn’t that happen already?

Edit: If you meant this thing:

The next major patch will require a full reinstall

Edit: The patch mentioned here has been deployed (Patch 1.30). See you all in game! ======================= Hey folks, We wanted to get ahead of this early and let you all know what to expect with our next big patch. We don’t currently have a release date/time with this, but will update this thread once we do. The next major patch will have some pretty fundamental changes to the game client. The number of back-end changes we’re putting in is substantial enough that we can’t just patch over t…

[Doomfish-21368]

What exactly?..

Edit: yeah I don’t know what he or she talking about… then again about to sleep

Just look forward to the dawn

Edit: it did… (no need for this ridiculous) gonna slam my face in pilloooooooooooooooo

[Ares-24688]

That surprise will be new arcade comp i would bet -.-

[BoopBot-1772]

Is Junkrat getting fixed? His collision on primary and secondary AND the trap have been bugged for months now, and no one has bothered to at least respond to the major threads on him.

[ScaryTerry-21314]

Also, there’s another cool little surprise coming next week. Excited!

Cant wait, is that why my client is pre-downloading?

[JackisWack-1292]

We worked on a balance patch this week.

inb4 Ashe nerfs while leaving rein/ana/moira alone.

[timabolt-1631]

It would be a nice surprise if a new comic comes out. I just figured they were already behind schedule on a map.

[Friea-2837]

Maybe they don’t need to make the game even more childish than it is?

[Domqe-1339]

What does Moira need?

[GhostPepper-11725]

We worked on a balance patch this week.

I hope its the long awaited teleporter buffs.

Also, there’s another cool little surprise coming next week. Excited!

yes, excited!

Not clear on this, what buffs are we referring to that have been discussed?

[Dom-23164]

teleporter:

range increased.
deploy time decreased.

[Doomfish-21368]

I was hoping teleportation would work in 3rd person on a timer instead…

Like Doomfist Ult.

Would make better use of Sym and Reaper.

[Afterstar-1658]

We worked on a balance patch this week. We’re hoping to put that patch on the PTR next week. The last time I said that, it was late and everyone flipped out. So please, don’t flip out if things slip… they often do.

Also, there’s another cool little surprise coming next week. Excited!

(sorry no details at this time as changes are still in flux… the PTR will get notes when it goes out… no dev update)

Is the little surprise the Ana side story?

[Doomfish-21368]

Or something in the story or a picture of Geoff in a Tutu that was recently leaked… jk about one of those

[epicpotato-21769]

was the story the surprise you where talking about? it was fun to read b.t.w.
