I’d give it a 3/10
I leave most match these days feeling quite frustrated and disappointed. New server region lock forced me to match with people from Asian servers, even though I’ve chosen to play on NA server.
All these words/sentences in a language I can’t understand and being unable to communicate in English with my teammates have made the game a new low for me. I used to play Overwatch daily, but now, I won’t even consider trying to look at the game icon, because all I can expect is just more frustration.
Personal opinion. I would rate it max 5/10 the game is nice overall but i miss old overwatch when the intreaction used to be more about critical thinking etc now the game is moved to a faster paced where sometimes you just get instally exploded to death regardless of role.
All im saying is for me personally i would prefer the game to be more about critical thinking and not like hero X=bad or good etc i would love though if blizzard gave us for a week or a day at least the 5v5 of ow2 even just on experimental to test it out at least cause the pvp there seems fun
The fun of overwatch has been taken out in order to balance OWL. But overwatch is still a nice game as it’s core, which mean it could get better again. I’d rate it lower if that wasn’t the case.
It lost a lot of it’s uniqueness by trying to be closer to a traditional shooter and other games do that much better, because they have better gunplay. Overwatch’s strenght was to mix all those different types of aim and playstyle, but all of that got squished aways in the name of OWL.
In it’s current state, it’s okey to play 1-2h once in a while, until you remember why you left the game.
Lol ok so full admission I haven’t played tf 2 but I heard great things about it! But as far as I know there’s not other game like OW out there besides TF 2 that is actually good
i would give it a 5, like playing competative as a support role is very very tough especially in my current elo which is gold, and also no new heros and content other than skin events and stufff, its literally the only game i play but its nostalgic to me cause its my very first online fps game.
8/10 for comp, 5/10 for QP. There are some rough spots, but sadly, when the game is most balanced and refined its so late many players have moved on. That being said the Pass system, sales and cross-play have seriously undermined the play quality for QP. I have noticed in particular stacks are often being placed against groups of solo’s more and despite what Blizz says, this has a profound impact on play combined with all the new accounts, some of which actually are new players…
Currently, maybe like a 7/10. It’s got an amazing concept, a fun cast, and I personally love the class-based/hero shooter genre, but there are too many gameplay issues holding it back from perfection, which I hope to see fixed in OW2. Overall, amazing potential, a little short on the execution.
The single issue that I think plagues the game is this: It’s so strategy team dependent, that working as a team doesn’t ensure success, but it only takes one person to cost a game either due to throwing or just bad play. This point was brought up by Stylosa in his discussion yesterday on the Overwatch Community that is what leads to a lot of toxicity. While I dislike 5 v 5, it might help in this regard, but the cost is high - half the tank players are quitting to go DPS or Support.
I get what you’re saying. Personally, I agree thay teamwork & strategy should prevail over uncoordinated raw skill, but I don’t think it should be designed to the extent that one poor teammate can bring down the entire game, though I can’t say I have any particular ideas on how to fix that.
This is a really hard question, cuz the team has made so many mistakes with the game.
I don’t even know where to start with all this honestly. But there’s a lot of good, and a whole lot of bad to Overwatch so that’s why it’s so hard to take EVERYTHING into account when rating it.
