Let’s start with Open Queue.
I think not capping picks completely breaks this mode. After hitting platinum you’re just playing against 3 tank, 2 healer comps and it’s SO boring and awful. Most heroes to choose from are DPS and they’re not relevant to this game mode at all. Make the cap on each role being 2 each, first come first serve. I’ve quit playing this mode as of last night, just like OW1, you have a huge problem on your hands that’s going to kill this game again.
Closed Queue.
Everyone is queuing DPS. The queue times if you’re not a full squad take way too long to want to play this mode continuously. Personally I always pick flex but it doesn’t matter, takes 7-10 minutes to find a game. I’ve also quit playing this mode unless I’m in a 5 stack.
Overall, OW didn’t fix the balance issue of this game and it hurts to see OW2 is still OW. Maybe I’ll retry in a few months to see if any changes were made, but I’m not hopeful of that. Already walking away from a game that actually was good on release (Overwatch 1) and got worse overtime due to bad updates.
Open Queue…means open…You trolling with that wall of text?
Hey look it’s role queue all over again. Bliz already pandered to the DPS players. If people want to disregard the role in open queue, they should be allowed to. Role queue exists for that reason.
Open Queue means you’re not queuing a role. There should still be a cap on classes unless they make tanks less unstoppable with healers. This mode will not last at it’s current state.
Is it impossible to believe that players actually enjoy that playstyle? Why so close-minded?
Role queue barely exist. ever sit in one of those Queues? If you’re ignoring the 3 tank 2 heal problem, you’re not contributing to this conversation. This mode has zero Balance and is basically a sandbox crapstorm at this point. This game will die with these 2 horribly adjusted modes.
It’s the actual comp of the game and always has been. Mode is fine other than it should be 6v6 still.
Not ignoring it, I’m defending it. It’s not a conversation if you are just complaining to the void and not expecting anyone to ever disagree with you.
Why do you think they attempted to rebrand the game? It died the first time for this same reason.
They changed the way you pay. The way you play is largely the same as its always been, imo.

It won’t last. This is the least satisfying DPS out right now in it’s current state.
They need to remove Open Queue from Competitive and keep it in Quick Play.
It just splits the queue times and Open Queue is not a real representation of how the game is “supposed” to be played.
I somewhat agree with this. I also think closed queue should be tinkered a bit. The funnest class is DPS, yet it’s the weakest but everyone wants to play it. They need to find a way to remedy that.
Everyone’s queuing for tanks, it’s consistently the one with the longest queue times.
Each game has 2 DPS but only 1 tank, though DPS is only like 1 or 2 minutes behind in the approximate queue time.
