i am not happy where overwatch is right now, but if i didnt love the universe or the game i wouldnt be here, i wouldnt be looking it up but they have created something special here imo
So again, youâre saying they should just let the thread that they created be ran by trolls (For over a MONTH now) and do nothing about it?
Seems unprofessional, but k.
Iâve corrected your opening paragrah for you. You can paste it in at your leisure.
Hi everyone! The Overwatch Team works insanely hard to keep Overwatch League going for us, while admitting that they diverted developer resources towards OWL, and neglected actual game development. They occasionally do bug fixes for bugs that have existed since the gameâs launch, and they take far too long to notice any of the extensive evidence that forum posters compile to prove the existence of these bugs. Very often, they claim to have fixed all the bugs but in fact fail to do so. For instance, the recent Reinhardt Earthshatter âfixesâ left dead spots when used up certain inclines. They also occasionally listen to the playerbase, but less-so nowadays than in the past. They were pretty active on the forums from around March-to-May this year, but theyâve fallen silent on the forums since then. When they do reply to a post to acknowledge that theyâve seen it, itâs often a nonsensical post about something as arbitrary as what skins weâre going to be getting next, instead of a legitimate balance post.
Your current opening paragraph is pandering with lies, and spreads misinformation.
They listen but they do not want to join the conversation. Itâs not about this thread being better (it is btw), itâs about trying not to flame more and more on threads that are full of immature ppl talking trash and calling it criticism (not all of them of course).
You see, if they post in this thread which is not about core aspects of the game, you should be SURE they read all the others posts about important matters.
The fact that ppl get no chance to take their argumets against an answering Dev is not something we should care for.
Complaining threads are not ignored. The devs just know that their words would only bring more fuss unless they come up with a definitive solution.
Only if you criticise them Kappa
Things I hate in this game:
Unjustified toxicity against certain groups of mains,
Abuse of the report system against this groups,
Homophobic and sexist behavior,
OWL playerâs that are allowed to spread hate and toxicity in streams,
Poor balancing decisions that destroy the identity of Heroes and increase the hate against there mains,
Toxicity at the forumsâŠ. oh my my
What a lovely community we have âŠ.
anyway,
Bastions ,Torbjörns
, Symmetras
, Sombras
, Roadhogs
, Mercys
, and the LGBT community
. <â(edit) and ofc all people who play nice and fair
Stand strong !
Stand together !
And donât become a part of the toxicity in this game.
Toxic peopleâs behaviour is so irrational, it truly goes against reason.
Why are people being negative this a thank you post to everyone at Blizzard and I think they deserve it. Donât make this about another thread where you havenât got any answers yet. someone is trying to be nice let them be nice donât use it as a backdoor to make more complaints about things youâve already moaned aboutâŠ
I to say thank you Blizzard great game I canât get off of it even thought it makes me tilt sometimes
Yeah. Why would you ever want to face criticism? Who does that these days? Why - when itâs much easier to just stay silent, ignore all the noise and only listen to what you want to hear. Why participate in discussions on your own forums? Why talk to your community? Why defend your position, why argue, why try out new things (like community suggestions)?
Right. Yeesh. People these days ask so much of developers who themselves decided to (one) have a forum for their game where fans can write down feedback and (two) constantly talk about how much they care about the community (âwe made this game for youâ or the Bioware bla bla: âwe made this game together with our fans, this is your story âŠâ) and how grateful they are for having us as fans of their work - except when you say something slightly negative then we donât care about you anymore and we will decide to stay silent and ignore you, deal with it.
Yeesh. So demanding. So ⊠entitled.
But hey, guys. This game is for you. Without you it wouldnât be possible. We love you. You are the best.
I donât know about you but somehow I am still receiving some very mixed messages and signals here ⊠Can someone help me? I am a bit lost here. Do we care - for real this time - or are we still pretending?
What? Itâs hard to trust someone whoâs already lied to you once? Really? But we already told you: we are reading your feedback daily and we care about your experience! What do you want?
You want us to actually do it? Just ⊠do it? What does that even mean? Isnât it enough that we say it at least once a week? Once a month? Twice ⊠a year?
What? You want more than words? Câmon. What about OWL? Thatâs what you all wanted, right? And we delivered! Donât say that we are out of touch with our community! Thatâs just mean.

Because the community manager who is never active now has the nerve to acknowledge this post (no offense, itâs just not as important as some of the megathreads) without ever acknowledging any of the Bastion, Sombra or Mercy threads that are well established and effectively supply ideas that could potentially balance characters that are clearly struggling with.
Because after months of silence we still have nothing to go off, no direction in which the game is going, no idea if they actually read the more gameplay/balances threads.
Edit: Do we even know if Visor is allowed or not yet?
Oh, is this a new lore?
If maybe they could stay within the bounds of sanity just once in a while, that would be great.
I get that but they are going to be listening arenât they itâs just common sense to listen to your players I trust that they are. Just because theyâre not giving you regular updates doesnât mean theyâre ignoring you theyâre just busy making changes etc.
like u where on a good roll until this.
Why does this need a special mention? what does LGBT have to do with this game ?
wholesome rating
Mr Rogers
I friggin love Tom Powers.
Just goes to show even an appreciation post for the game as a whole can bring out the haters and complainers. There are issues but the fact weâre all here discussing it means we all have some good feelings towards this game and want to see it improve and be around for a while.
Itâs a good joke, I just come here for the Drama and PR responses itâs great.
I remember someone posted a long time ago if âMr. Balanceâ (Canât say his name.) left the OW team the game would be in a better position. Heroes of the Storm became a better game after he left.
Instant answer to this thread, while ignoring every other megathread with actual issues that are forgotten for years.
Classic.
Theyâve been doing hit and run on threads for a while.
