Fun mode? , nice try, this is a JOKE.
there’s always hello kitty, after the weekend it goes back to the UN-FUN mode.
You’ve mentioned hello kitty twice now. Something you’d like to share?
I’ve played about 20+ games now, and my opinion is that it’s good for flashpoint and push, bad for control, good for first point hybrid, but faster payload moving is bad for second, third point hybrid and all of payload mode. Faster respawning feels good, but it’s leading to more staggering - probably because psychologically its go go go.
The most succinct description I’ve seen so far. Nice job.
Although I disagree with it benefiting first point hybrid. Anything payload related it doesn’t seem to work well. (or favors attackers too much)
Yeah, the idea seems fun on paper with tunable numbers.
Push seems better, win or lose with shorter timers. But i feel like it could have some of bot related Speed buff out of combat.
Honestly this whole mode might be better with global speed boosts, in or out of combat. Characters like Tracer and lucio can fly back in like the neverending plague. Killing seems less impactful with how fast people come back.
And if you get a map you need to fight over the point, and you get something like Doomfist vs Rein and 5 people 1v1s. Then you can just run into situations where it feels like the moment your doom gets Block-Charged, or shot at by 5 people.
You lose the point, then the Doomfist ult makes them leap off the map and the point get capped… While the Rein’s ult, if reached, wipes the team and you can just really get wiped if your team can’t shred a 1400 hp shield in time while your fist is busy getting 1v5ed.
There’s also matchmaking problems. I don’t know what’s going on but yeah. You have Master and Grandmaster players fighting against Bronze Hogs who insist “U ALL SUCK! U NNEEDD TO HEL ME THRO REAPER, U THROWING SUPPORTS! HOG NEEDS 2 POCKETS!” insisting that their ability to win in bronze, is dictated by the Gm’s ~~ in~~ability to aim.
Matchmaker seems wide and when games are lost in single teamfights or ults. IDK, i did like the idea of faster qp for quicker quests. But im not really enjoying it win or lose.
I’ve had people in game go “whoever touches point first gets the first win / 50-84%”
Games go by so fast that 1 team wipe is devastating. Wipes are quicker but 4x more frequent with how much a single wipe + stagger can turn a match.
And Tracer is like a neverending blight in this mode and all the tanks hopping off point and facetanking under the old system are losing points to breath up while the game gets C9’ed and lost.
Oh, and when they do stand on point, you get a GM mauga farming a bronze hog while the bronzer screams “I NEED MORE HEALS,! YOU SUCK!” “OF COURSE MERCY OUTHEALS MAUGA, OMG U SUCK AT MERCY! HEAL MORE MOERCY!” And the dude is standing stationary… missing 8 hooks in a row, feeding 8000 dmg and dealing 450 to a gm tank that’s done 12000 in a 5 minute game…
Games are even more one-sided so all this did was throw gasoline on the problem and make it 10 times worse
Nah Total Mayhem is fun, this is absolute garbage; first time in months I’ve logged on, done my dailies and immediately left because I didn’t have time for comp games.
Not really, it’s pretty much phased out on pc and you can only play it now on apple arcade but could be a decent replacement for those soft and want to complain about a weekend event
Hate to be that guy like look at me im mr. meseeks
I posted a thread about a throwback 6v6. Short post but if anyone digs the idea maybe they can put in something actually enjoyable/different from the same thing but faster and somehow way less fun.
Sorry, just trying to get any ideas out there instead of a repeat of this hatemode.
More trash from a trash company
This is funny because I also posted something similar: Suggestion for the next "Hacked" Quickplay: 6v6
And that is why I love it. Faster games means weekly challenges are done faster. QP is built for completing weeklies. Over all I am having fun with it!
Don’t worry, they will ignore all feedback as per usual and push it to live as normal mode.
Oh man it’s so much worse than Awful. The toxicity is through the roof, cheaters and simps are all that’s left in that game mode. You say it’s trash in chat and you’re out of the game, reported.
The only sane people have stopped playing or are here crying in the forums like me XD
Anyway, I’m off to find something else to do. Amusing as it is to watch Blizzard torch their game.
Honestly, anyone who’s saying the game mode is even relatively fun are probably comp sweats who have washed out and are back in QP to annoy the people who play the game casually or they’re disgusting Blizzard superfans who will never admit that their “favorite LITTLE company” has been sucking for the past 4 years.
I’ve seen more rank shaming and other nonsense from people who exclusively play comp than I ever have in the entire life of this game and it’s competitive mode. If the people who play comp like it, let them have it, but don’t touch the only part of the game that 90% of the people play.
The toxicity has gotten stupid and the amount of people who I’ve seen cheating in these lobbies just to get ahead is just sad.
Boycott Blizzard and have them fix this mess.
It’s great for people who just want to see the victory screen or give up and go to the next match. I like playing overwatch though.
It would be absolutely fine if they just put the mode in the experimental card or arcade. Removing what is far-and-away the most popular gamemode is absolute insanity.
And I don’t buy the line from Blizzard that removing quickplay temporarily is the ONLY way for them to gather enough data. They lie nonstop for convenience sake and people need to stop taking the devs at their word considering how many times in recent years they’ve lied to try and escape criticism.
Problem is, people become blind to what their favorite companies do. They refuse to believe that Blizzard cares about the money they’re raking in from people dumping money on skins, battlepasses, and whatever that campaign is. They’re under the impression Blizzard loves us and cares about us and that they’re trying their best.
But then they refuse to acknowledge that Kotick stole millions for yachts and mansions. They refuse to believe that these game modes are half-assed attempts to force people to play a certain way. They refuse to believe any of it.
And you’re right, they had an entire experimental card that they could have used, yet it was wasted resources because it doesn’t get used for the exact thing it should be used for. Things like Quicker Play. Doesn’t help they don’t incentivize even trying out the mode. Drop us some coins for our trouble since we don’t exactly have a choice if we want to play OW.
IDK who yall is, but i never wanted Quicker QP games. not once have i thought “wow i wish the game would end after one team fight.” I want to know who in the world was asking for this. Legit the only time ive been in the forums until this terrible change was made. even for just a weekend.
