Why I will quit if 2-2-2 ever comes to overwatch

That’s a joke, no one will use it. It must be mandatory.

What matters to Blizzard is what is best for the game and them as a company, and what is best for the game is what the majority wants, and the majority wants role que, that is why its going to be implemented. In a perfect world everything would work and everyone would be happy but that is not the case, some people will not like it, which is fine, but as long as it works for the majority, then that is what is going to happen.

The point is that I can play in quad dps games and succeed. I have a lower winrate in 2-2-2 comps than 1-4-1 comps.

No game other than overwatch really gives you that much power to play intesting comps and have it work. I don’t want to lose that

Because waiting till its to late is totally a wise thing to do for overwatch right?

people use LFG constantly. when I make a group it fills up within a minute. better ques that playing dps and waiting 20ish minutes to get into a game

no your problem is you dont want to adapt and dont have the will to get better when you see a challenge.

you are a person who is looking out for an easy way.

LFG has to many downsides to be concidered an alternative. One conciderable one is it doesn’t take into account your or your teammates ping like an actual matchmaker does.

what does this mean?

yes but besides ping it has many many more issues.

This is quite ignorant and narrow minded tbh.

In diamond but ok. Also many GM/t500 players want it also but ok. Im not a scrub but ok. Lower ranks woud also benefit from more organisation and balanced matches but ok.

It will improve the experience for many of us but ok.

You’re entitled to your own opinion but for MANY of us, the fun factor is being drained by lack of structure, balance, team oriented gameplay and way too many games being decided at hero select due to selfishness. I personally find no enjoyment playing ball for 4 dps as i dont get enough support with no off tank or no 2nd support but if u enjoy mercying for it, good for u

Do you know why 2-2-2 was desired by Blizzard?

You click to start a normal game, the matchmaker chooses from a pool of players that are close to you, so your connection is as fast as possible.

When you make or join an LFG, the group your joining could be on the otherside of the country, so, depending on how far your teammates are, you games could be considerably more laggy then just going into a regular game, making for a worst playing experience.

That’s the price we pay for the bad side of the community that have done nothing but play a dysfunctional game of team comp chicken when it comes to who will/will not switch for needed roles on a team. Driving people into play roles they don’t want to play, might not even be able to play but still try being ya know, they want to win. Making a loss feel even worse.

It wasn’t too bad the first year or even the 2nd year of the game but now it’s gotten real bad.

Sure people have wanted role queue for a long time but they seemed ok with some sort of soft queue. Where you kind of sort of try to have match making avoid throwing 5+ of one hero main on a team etc.
The huge leap over to just straight draconian 222L + role queue + hopefully per role SR is a direct result of selfish jam your hero into the team +1 DPS players, in many cases on Alt accounts bought to do nothing but jam +1 more DPS into a team in the first place.

There will be some growing pains if/when we move over but long term it’s for the best much like how 1HL worked out fine.

LFG system.

LFG system, role que wont force this.

every game is winnable, you dont just lose because of quad dps.

then dont play it, use LFG to avoid having to play it

Then your not playing quad dps right,

this I can’t really argue against. balance probably would be better but I dont think its worth getting rid of so much of the games selling point (atleast for me)

Hes referring to me lol. The hypocrisy is next level considering u have made no effort to see things from the POV of pro-222 people and instead only judged me purely off my tag. How immature

Everyone keeps saying this argument. What are these points that are so important?

You say you have won more games as Quad DPS then you lose. Well, I have rarely if ever won a game with a quad DPS line up, if they remained that way til the end.

No. Quad dps by default gives me as WB less support to do what i can do with him and makes it less enjoyable due to that.

okay, maybe thats because you don’t know how to make it work? maybe its because half of all players immideatly get tilted the second they see more than 2 dps,

because that solves the balance issue that are ripple over the entire game now due to Blizzard trying to fix the 3-3 meta in OWL? It addresses the issues people think per role SR will help match making wise?

Player also don’t want to subjugate themselves to an arrogant lobby leader who is making demand about see this profile and what your win rate and what blah blah blah… for some random trash gold SR game.

Now it’s fine to be anti-222… I have no problem with that but at the same time it’s disingenuous to wave off a 222L + role queue + per role SR system + balance for 222 as being same same as the current LFG system. To be fair, I have no problem with admitting that some of the pro-222 side is over hyping possible in game options or system that we have no idea are/will be added in the first place.

okay then dont play with those players. Make your own group, if you dont want to show your profile or deal with people like that then just dont join their group.
