The open que might have bin better with this

if there was limited slots in open que, like onley player can choose tank and 2 dps and 2 healers. and not have 4 tanks and 1 dps.

Yeah a gamemode that allows anyone to pick whatever but first come first serve would’ve been way better for the Q times tbh. Tank and DPS q is like 25 minutes in my region and support q is instant

Putting role limits turns hero select into a race to get the desired roles. A lot of people quit games when they don’t get the role they want leading to a large number of backfill players filling into undesirable roles, who then also quit. Players with less impressive hardware will be disproportionately forced onto undesirable roles.

The game had the first come, first served role limits very briefly while attempting to push out role queue and it lead to games where teams would go entire rounds without tanks due to the revolving door of leavers. As a solo queuer it felt like you were constantly backfill into half finished games that needed a tank.

For beta, it makes a lot of sense to have a mode that can act as a tank/DPS soak. The queue times improved for first beta when they opened up OQ for people to easily muck about with their new toys. So it’s working as intended, since if OQ is full of tank and DPS players then that’s less pressure on the RQ option.

To heck with that, people go to OQ specifically for picking what they want and they live with it.

Limiting that is severely stupid.

You already have that which is role queue. Enjoy the wait or accept triple Tanks in QPC. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:
