Blizzards creativity died after the first year and owl became a thing. There is no hope

Now I just see paid emotes and skins to fund something not a lot of people care about.

Bugs are common, it doesn’t matter if you are a lone game dev or a triple A dev.
Games are going to have bugs. Bugs take time to fix. Sometimes a fix to a bug causes worse bugs to hapoen.
That said, they need to speed things up. Some bugs have been around for over two years now.

Isnt this sh/t in the game since they reworked her?
people posted stuff like that on PTR, there are millions of bugs where you can put your turrets into walls or underground, and its still not fixed 
Bugwatch.
Blizz is the only one company that had so many bugs in their game since like 20 years ago.
There are heroes that have more than 100 bugs like Doomfist/Roadhog/sombra etc.
There is no excuse to that.
This is my first blizz game and probably the last, everyone was praising them about being the “best company”, meanwhile, probably the worst company in the market right now, with 0 experience, 0 communication,0 progress and much more.
There is NOTHING that people can say that would defend them.

They key word is that they allow and ignore known bugs to make it into live. It’s disgusting for how big of a gaming titan company they are.

A bug is unprofessional? Many maps and characters and situations and they are only human.

Playtesters exist. You know, the people that test for bugs and glitches? Yeah.

And they miss things. Again numerous maps and characters. Report the bug and then they can fix it. This is common for big video games.

Bethesda?
Riot Games?
Valve has plenty of bugs in their games.
I’m not arguing there aren’t a ton of bugs. I’m not even excusing it. But this is an exaggeration, no single hero has over 100 bugs.
My statement was to point out that it is unrealistic to think the game won’t have bugs at all. The criticism is misplaced. They should be criticizing how slow the bug fixes are.

I really want an OWL pro to do this on a televised match.
Obviously that’s not going to happen, as it’s probably in the contracts prohibiting doing any glitches/bugs/exploits, since it’ll make the game look bad. Probably some heavy bans and fines and explicit warning against something like this.

I know it’s fun to grab a pitch fork and join the angry mob but… Blizzard games including Overwatch generally have far less bugs than the competition.

well back to single player games again… wake me up when they fixed it
Remember the days when you bought a game and it actually worked with no bugs. And there wasint all this DLC crap to nickle and dime you.
Yeah those were the days.

Hahaha this is a joke!
Still not even 1% of what OW has.
One ability can have 15 bugs now multiply that by few abilities or passives or enemy skills you can get more than 100
You can get bugs by enemy latency, enemy interactions or obstacles, and considering that these abilities have itself bugs it multiplies
Like you have Roadhog hook, you can use it on dashing enemy, enemy who is behind wall(hook 1.0 still happens), Mei uses wall(individual skill bug) or the map like jump pads or payload or turrets etc.
Im “good” at finding bugs and in my 25 years of playing games OW is the worst game i have ever played, programming wise, bugs, interactions and all of that crap.
https://youtu.be/uSN0kXxN7TI?t=1m5s – if you watch it for some time, Rip tire from junkrat can block Rein ulti, this is what im talking about when i said that skills have bad interactions with stuff and bugs happen.
and we are not “exaggerating” because this game at times is broken or unplayable if in 1min you can get 4/5 bugs as DF its literally broken and nothing else.
And funny thing is that its “esports ready”.

Games also had a fraction of the technology and code they have now
They also had a fraction of the the knowledge base, capital, and community it has now. Maybe they should start utilizing it.
You point is null and void. Try again.

well when the patch notes include bug fixes that are cosmetic in nature 95% of the time, it kind of makes me think they have their priorities a bit F’d up
like “Fixed a bug that caused D’Va’s Light Gun to disappear if Roadhog used Chain Hook on her while she used an emote.”
What the hell is that?? There’s probably like two people who play this game who even knew about that “bug” yet it’s apparently higher priority than gameplay breaking teleporter glitches
