What does Overwatch have against mayhem and no limits?

RNG is RNG. About two months back, we had a 6 day stretch of nothing but Total Mayhem.

Do you even understand how the system works and what time in your time zone it changes ? It’s fairly obvious it changes daily #JustSayin

Not only is that untrue, but it was a lie made up by Jeff Kaplan’s secret society of anti-mayhem debauchery. Also we aren’t talking about the weekly in this thread. I was going to make a separate thread about needing more mayhem in the weekly cycle.

Do you honestly believe Jeff Kaplan singularly dictates game rotation?

Mayhem is the second most popular game mode, while 1v1 limited duel and low gravity are the least popular. I see these two modes rotate out nonstop while mayhem is available only on very rare occasion.

And yes sure, this is only a poll of forum-goers, but even with very conservative extrapolation of that data into the real world, I do not believe for a second that the modes’ frequency is based entirely on popularity. I think the weekly FFA mode is the only case where this holds true.

It has nothing to do with what Jeff likes or not. They are the least liked modes so they get rotated in the least.

Please see my post directly above yours. Unless there was a shocking turn of popularity over the last year, this would be the literal opposite of what is observed.

does jeff has anything at all? Tomorrow will be full month with no posts

A forum survey that only pulls from the forum means nothing. When they did their survey, let alone watching stats since Arcade starts, it was Mystery heroes was the most popular and total mayhem towards the bottom. TM has a strong dedicated fan base but is significantly smaller than others.

Unless you are talking about the survey jeff posted last march.* in which case, dont know what to tell you, i dont know why it went from least popular to 2nd most.

Even a forum survey will have a certain degree of accuracy and be representative with over 8000 votes.

I linked directly to it in my post…

And Im working, wasn’t responding to you so I didn’t see it until I literally edited it dude.

You literally replied to me.

I meant the initial response, not you going “look right above you”

Either way you guys are both wrong. Mystery heroes isn’t a daily arcade. Stop hijacking my post! Jeff, stop with the 1v1 elim and give the people what they want! More mayhem and no limits!

Mayhem fans: We want more Total Mayhem in the Arcade!
Blizzard *only puts 1v1 and 3v3 and never Mayhem in the Arcade, never Total Mayhem
Blizzard: yeah but everyone only plays 1v1/3v3 and never plays Mayhem!

Who plays anything other than mystery heroes?

Mayhem is my absolute favorite, and has had its week cancelled after only 1 day something like 3 times now. It’s really frustrating.

We need an arcade browser so we can actually get at those modes when we want to play them, and not just when it happens to please Blizzard.

In a recent video with youtuber Nateson, Jeff was there and mentioned that while he created Total Mayhem he actually hates it and if he could he’d remove it.

no limits hasn’t been on in a month.
seriously???!
its always duel… im so angry.

me and my friend made a plan of what to do in no limits and one month later we still can’t do it because we cant play the mode.
