More particularly the hero levels.
My account level is 132 (First I’m pretty annoyed that all my progression from OW1 is just moot), yet my highest hero level is only 17. And you’re telling me the last title unlocks at hero level 200?! What’s even the point of it existing in the first place if many casual players won’t even reach level 50 for the first title for months and months. Just seems a bit pointless it existing at all, no?
Also the level badges are ugly imo but that one’s just personal preference. Progression is just so sluggish it’s not even rewarding.

progression isnt supposed to be fast.
its a long term goal to show off how much you play a certain hero

Was it not pointless by your standards too?
What’s the problem with the copied and pasted calling card with different colors as rewards? I don’t see a problem. 
I originally thought that they put the progression into the game in this unfinished state because they just wanted to get it out to us so we didn’t have to wait, while also assuming that they were doing this because they were going to slowly improve upon it over time with our feedback, but I think it’s safe to say that at this point, with no news or insight on any kind of changes or additions to the progression, what we have now is going to remain indefinitely, i.e., the progression was more or less just a marketing ploy just to say it’s in the game.
In particular? Likely to help players new to OW2 assume a sense of ‘fairness’… now… when they look at someone’s profile (assuming it’s public, lol), they’ll see the player levels, which has everyone starting from the same place.
As opposed to before, where they might see someone who has hundreds or even thousands of hours across different heroes and think “welp, I’m boned”.
That was the first thing I thought when they put the hero level category at the top of the list in front of the hours played category.
Yeah but being this slow isn’t rewarding. You can barely even see the progress you’re making. I’m not saying it should be rapid, but clearly to get a single hero to max level, it’s gonna take hundreds of hours. You’d basically have to be a one trick.
The account levelling speed is pretty fine. It’s just the hero levels that seem sooooo slow.
thats the point.
you arnt supposed to max them out without investing alot of time
