It’s still surreal how this hasn’t happened yet considering it’s been suggested over 100 times and every single time it gets countless positive replies and likes.
Not everyone has a mic or has confidence to speak - which this change helps massively, considering Sombra is all teamwork.

I just need to make sure they see this thread. We have to keep campaigning for this until it’s in the game. This has been sorely needed for a long time. And I don’t want them to leave Sombra alone forever again. Permanent invis only make her more of an EMP bot. She it not in a good spot for 90% of the community.
If the colours for hacked were purple instead of red and were a bit stronger than it would be way easier for teammates to take advantage of hacked teammates without Sombra having to constantly call them out. I’ve seen it with the bugs with the OWL skins.

This really is not needed, as there is already a visual AND a sound (from the enemy) indicating they been hacked.
With the inclusion of seeing your teammates thru walls now, the game is becoming more and more cluttered.
Plus the fact that Hack is actually there to help and benefit SOMBRA more than her teammates.
On the other hand, what the OP suggest could be a good idea so I WOULDNT HAVE TO BE on voice chat dealing with whiny nerd raging morons.
So for THAT reason, I welcome the change, so I DONT HAVE to be on voice.

God, I hated so much Gold and Platinum. I’m nearly falling to Platinum in an extraordinarily bad season, but otherwhise, just good luck in the grind, everyone. You’ll get out some day.
Hacked enemies have red stuff around them. Confusing I know.
In my experience, I find it rare to see even one person who’s not in the voice chat. Even then, they’ll usually join it with a simple question.
I have said this many times but i say it again:
I play Sombra a lot. I know exactly what current indicator looks like. I still have lot of trouble seeing it whenever teammate is Sombra.
I don’t have same issue with discorded or anti-healed enemies, for example. This is visibility problem exclusive to Sombra.

And then voice said:
-Rein hacked, focus him team.
And so they did.
I’m actually really happy in bronze, I don’t really want to climb. The meta is at its least strict down here, and people have surprisingly good aim, positioning, all that stuff. There’s also lots of silly plays, like a McCree flanking for a Deadeye. Only reason I got on the forums to begin with was really bad Junkrat bugs.
I can’t force them to talk
Why constantly say “i hacked! (insert hero)” into the coms when they can just put sugar skulls over the enemy’s head, it’s called quality of life changes.

Everyone has been asking for this for so long and blizz just don’t give a shxt about this. Instead they gave her perma invis and derstructable TL. How smart.
Yea I think there was a post on the old Forums about 2 days after she was out on the ptr about exactly this and we repeated it now for about two years yet we still don’t even got a word form the devs.
But hey lets give meis ult better visuals…

Because there is no need, it’s easy to spot, while hack can be… harder to spot as there is no clear visual and the one it has is like a tiny RED bits of codes or some other thing floating around a RED outline of a hero. Sometimes its hard to spot. It’s only clear someone got hacked if they have ult ready bc then, at least you have that ult symbol above their head
