They're not implementing 3-2-1

Jeff specifically said, in the post, that this wasn’t anything they were serious about.

Where? This part?

@JeffreyKaplan

The other odd thing about testing this, is that when we started, everyone treated it like this was “one of Jeff’s crazy experiments” and was a super different, challenging (and possibly stupid) idea. I tried to calm people down by reminding them that MOST of the matches in OW history since launch up until the release of role queue, were actually played with one tank… or less

No, that couldn’t be it, he’s just talking about how they initially reacted to his idea… maybe this part?

@JeffreyKaplan

We’re not really confident that it’s the correct thing for the game. It solves a lot of problems but it also introduces a lot of problems (like most things in the world of game design).

No, that still doesn’t sound like he’s specifically saying they weren’t serious about it, that it definitely wasn’t going to happen, or that it was just a silly experiment…

Maybe this part?

@JeffreyKaplan

We’re really conflicted on it so it was cool to see you bring up the idea. We’d love to hear your thoughts on and opinions on it. We’ve also been brainstorming if there is a way to bring this experiment to the community somehow (either through the PTR or the live game somehow).

No, still not fitting the narrative…

They sound legitimately conflicted about the topic and are taking it very seriously. Serious enough to devote two months of development time on it and to leave the (potentially) most detailed developer post to date on the forums.

All of the discussion about who’s gonna do what and what concerns people have are probably the most important thing that you could have on the forums right now.
