I like playing tank, but the queues are like 4 to 5 times longer for tank in OW2 than in OW1. Please do something to fix tank queues being so long. Right now in-game it says tank queue is < 9 minutes. Tank Queues are usually at least 6 minutes long.
I personally had more fun when Overwatch was 2-2-2.
Well, the way you fix that is getting more Supports.
The way you get more Supports:
We all knew this was going to happen. I don’t know why people are surprised. They made the role more fun and cut the space by half. Meanwhile, OW1 support queues were not much longer than the tank queues.
The only way to fix it is to entice people to play support. Again, everyone should have seen this bottle neck. It was super obvious.
Heh, this was from August 2021…
[INSERT “1 LESS SUPPORT IN OW3” JOKE HERE]
This.
Like they really should just go “screw it!” and buff them like this. Make them fun. And like you’ve said before, if it needs scaling back, do it bit by bit to find that perfect spot.
Well yeah. Do large scale changes first, then worry about fine tuning later.
Which is the #1 piece of game balance advice from the top balance guy from Warcraft 3, and League of Legends.
Maybe give supports primary weapons that deal as much damage as dps? Leave the ults and abilities what seperates the dps and support, not the primary weapon.
Believe it or not there was a time when people posted about how solo tanking was going to be so unfun that it didn’t matter that only half as many tanks were needed, tanking would still be the bottleneck because so many people would be put off solo tanking.
Tank queues are so long because they are so strong now. Supports have fast queues cuz least popular role, but dps also have fast queues. Just everyone wants to be the op tank role where their hero is significantly stronger than all others.
DPS queues are still longer than tank queues for me.
Link a pic? I have never seen tank saying shorter queues than dps in qp. Maybe for ppl in ranked if they are much higher on dps than their tank, since the player pool is much smaller.
I can’t link photos, but generally my queues have tanks being the same or slightly less than DPS.
Right now, here’s my queue times. Saturday, 1:15 PM EST PC
QP
Tank 3 min
DPS 4 min
Support 1 min
Comp
Tank 2 min
DPS 4 min
Support 1 min
bruh I wait up to 20 minutes for tank in comp 
We could go back to tanks being a chore to play and no one wanting to play them again like in OW1. That’ll make queue times short
Those people were brainless and I specifically remember them. I made a post saying “Finally, now that we’re going to 1 tank per team they’ll be buffed and fun to play again” and a few typical bad take forum users insisted it wouldn’t happen 
We must be different regions, ranks, or both.
Perhaps tanks are too good in 1-2-2 format causing everyone to pile into the role?
Was a bad design choice removing the second tank only to giga buff the other, now you have one role that has far greater impact on the match than the others and 1 less slot for people to select it. Most people could predict that outcome…
Solo tanking does still suck if getting hit with every CC in the game is a major turnoff for you.
Also, given all the hype material from blizzard leading up to the launch, sure did make playing tank look awful. Of course it was all on push maps, and it is not fun playing tank on those maps.
Poytheon suggesting others are brianless is rich
It appeared everyone like to be dps, who could’ve known.
Why not just make all roles into dps, give them all a self-sustain similar to supports, keep their playstyle as it is for variety, and rework hero like Mercy.
