role queue is the only thing that makes this game playable.
would rather wait 10 mins for a dps match than lose cus we have 4 dps mains who dont want to fill.

They remove it, it’s admitting they were wrong to put it in.

That’ll never happen, so either live with it, or move to another fps game where none of the issues that are rampant in Overwatch are present.

I chose the latter. Gaming is fun again.

They weren’t wrong, though.

For some, role lock is a boon.

For some, role lock is a curse.

It’s 50-50 I’m sure. Same as the trope.

You talk about this effervescent FPS game that you jumped ship to all the time, but you’ve never actually said what it is. Why not let in everyone else who wants a new game too?

Also, months after stopping playing you still lurk the forums every day. Overwatch is my main game and I’m not even on as frequently as you are. Either you’re full of it, or you’re deluded.

A) Why tell someone a viable alternative when a hatefilled forum will tear it to sheds?

And

B) I post on the forums still because #1. I hope one day things turn around for a game with limitless potential, so I have to keep up to date on it, #2. I can post where I please and finally #3. I didn’t quit months ago as you said, only maybe a month back.

Quite simply because your alternative doesn’t exist.

I never said you couldn’t, just that for someone as futilely inclined towards the current status of the game you spend an incredible amount of time talking about it. Sometimes it’s better to move on from a breakup, and maybe check in again later on down the line.

Completely false. Game is a lot worse now.

You honestly think that if someone can find an alternative to Overwatch, that is both more enjoyable to them and devoid of the issues they feel plague their matches in Overwatch currently, they wouldn’t jump to the new game? You really think that game doesn’t exist for some players?

The amount of time I spend on these forums daily is a handful of seconds. That’s an ‘incredible amount off time’ to you? Odd. Your sense of time is entirely out of whack.

As for moving on, to be redundant, I have. I’ll just hang out on the forums, as long as I like. If someone were to dislike the few seconds I spend on here a day? Well that’s just too bad for them, isn’t it? :slight_smile:

Nope, never said that. I’m sure many games like that exist. I don’t believe you’ve found one for yourself though because you’ve never said what it is. I think that’s healthy skepticism.

For someone who doesn’t play the game at all anymore, 9 posts in 2 days is a decent bit. I only have 12 and I play the game semi-regularly. I play it more than any other game, that’s for sure.

OK. I guess you’re right. (snicker)

As for you not believing me? Should that somehow sway me to say what fps game for me away from Overwatch?

I made 9 posts in 2 days? I’m flattered you went and looked. Those are called ‘posts during red lights during a commute’. But to you that’s:

LOL.

Yes, your alternative doesn’t exist. Emphasis on your. I’m not saying there is no alternative, just that you haven’t found one, because you won’t tell us what it is.

I hope you aren’t driving while doing that.

It’s relative.

You sure didn’t answer my earlier question of “Why would I say what FPS game I now play instead of Overwatch, when no matter what game it is, it will not be deemed as ‘good enough’ but those that disagree?” Feel free to answer. Think about it, just for a second. You’re already confrontational, so no matter what game I mention that I now devote my gametime to, you’ll dislike it. Any fps game that’s not Overwatch. So it’s a no win situation. Which is comedic, as I have zero to gain by convincing you there are better games out there. One of which I enjoy much more than Overwatch.

That is why I’m silent on which game in particular. Not a good enough reason for you? Too bad. You won’t even answer a simple question. So that’ll have to be good enough for you.

I didn’t say I’m the one at the wheel. Lull in conversation? Type out a post.

Oh it’s not relative in this case. You said specifically that i post with ‘an incredible amount of time’ and I told you it’s mere seconds. Now you’re swinging to 'Well it’s relative so…I wasn’t right in saying ‘an incredible amount’. Silly Prometheus.

So there seriously needs to be a discussion about this 2-2-2 crap. it is now determined by the dps que of 1000’s and when you throw a tank or healer in there their rank is now determined by the dps no matter their qualificiations and it ruins the game play.

arent u the kid who made that thread where you just cry that you are being set to your real rank and just cry about your team. anything u say is invalid IMO

Role que doesn’t exist anymore. That would imply there are healers and the way activision has created these new toons they are all DPS based. ITs literally Cartoon COD. Its just open que at this point.

I would argue that open queue lobbies are more even more competitive than role queue these days. I am currently diamond 3 in 6v6 (predicted, still doing placements) and this is the lobby it just put me in.

lol at anyone who still thinks open queue diamond is role queue silver or gold etc. More like the other way around if anything. 6v6 is so back.

Also we won that game and I got potg btw. Our Zarya in particular was insane.

I fail to see how this really supports what you’re saying?

6v6 has its own separate mmr from 5v5.

you’re predicted d3 in 6v6, there was someone who was 6v6 gm last season. anyone else - we wouldnt know much about their 6v6 history.

A champ, Gm, and master from role queue also in the game though. Not sure the 6v6 range because it was a placement match. I would assume I was on the lower end (even though I went 18-6) but still. No one gonna tell me that is a gold or plat or even diamond role queue lobby.
