You know what's the worst thing about the 3-2-1?

General Discussion

It’s that they changed it not because of balancing issues but JUST so DPS don’t have to wait that long. It’s the only reason. Jeff even said it in the developer update.

DPS players again ruining everything.

It’s such an insult to tank players

Remember when streamers and DPS players said “Yeah I’d rather wait if it means having a good comp” ?

Yeah well not anymore

Tank is already such a ungrateful role to play but we deal with it because the team need a tank.

But DPS players on the other hand :

“WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE TO WAIT ???”
“I HAVE TO SWITCH ?!!!”
“WHAT IS THIS GARBAGE GAME BLIZZARD PLEASE NERF AND BAN EVERYONE”

Well now that 3-2-1 will become a reality (because let’s face it, blizzard will push it to live no matter our feedback) I will play DPS as well and just play for myself.

Because with only one tank who are they gonna blame if they loose ?

Yup, you, the tank

But if you win they’ll think it’s because of them.

I’m so tired of playing tank, I’ll just play DPS like everybody else. Pick Hammond and don’t care for a second about my team. Doesn’t matter if we loose or win. At least I’ll have fun

yeah. dps are the only ones plagues with wait times. they make up most of the population.

ofcourse they are going to try and appease the majority of the population.

mmm really? remember when tanks and supports ruined que times for dps?

I remember.

boo hoo. you aren’t the ones dealing with the que times. don’t care.

wait sure. but not wait 50 minutes for a comp game. that’s ridiculous.

remember when tanks and supports said “we just want a structured environment”

yeah what happened to that? 13 2 is structured just like 222.

what was that excuse that supports and tanks used against LFG again :thinking: OH THATS RIGHT! IT TAKES TOO LONG.

you can use that excuse but when dps have the same issue its okay? tfoh.

Sure, now that the DPS players got what they wanted it’s so easy to act as the good player so full of wisdom and good will.

When you guys have been yelling and whining for the past few months.

your 2 statements have literally nothing to do with each other.

yes dps haven’t liked the game. this change is to attempt to address that.

?

Mode is a failure in my book already.
Game was already dealing with this disgusting Damage creep and that’s just even more amplified with more of them running about.
Buff healing, Nerf Damage and for the love of god put anything that doesn’t have the ability to protect their team from Damage into the DPS category… aka get rid of Ball as a tank… then the mode might have some enjoyment in it… otherwise… get it back out and work on something actually good.

Imo, they should revert whole game for it first, to state from around start of goats, then work off it with changes if they want 321 to work. Just saying.

Yeah well what gets me is this: how much time is tied up on this “balancing” and in turn when they admit that part of the drive to DPS is the designs plus all the in game incentives like say POTG… but do nothing to fix that…

We needed Mauga… bad as a long ranged tank. Move Mei, Doom and Bastion to Tank as well…

I would much rather they removed 2-2-2 instead of adding 1-3-2. I like 2-2-2 but I hate 1-3-2 more.

Too many DPS players have the patience (and intellect) of a fruit fly so we lose game integrity in the process of pleasing them. Let’s not make tanks / supports more pew pew pew, because you know, DPS wouldn’t like that… so they refuse to run tanks and supports… but want them trash on top…

I am a tank main but it is not the dps player ruining everything its the general feel of unfun of playing tank.

For me it started with every hero having cc abilities that was added later to the game which made tanking a chore instead of a challenge. So i just instalock an offtank and hope for the best. At the end of the day we play a game to have fun not to cater others solely.

TBH this mode is hilarious and should been left on the cutting floor. DPS players think they want this but they don’t Their roles if this is kept are gonna be nerfed so hard ands tanks and supports buffed heavily.

In my 2 hours playing It’s amazing how little enemies die because shocker nearly 80% of the playerbase is Really REALLY bad at the game. As a support Tank main it’s amazing to watch not 1 not 2 but 3 dps players screech how it’s everyone else’s fault we lost rather than the fact this mode is designed around their unable to hit anything butts.

So nothing changed then? Got it.

Im fine with it. DPS did have stupid wait times that used to be like 30 seconds. People with little time to play a day get far less games in with a 10 minute wait. This is good for dps.

They just need to make appropriate balance adjustments with having 3 of them per team.

It’s a FPS game, most players will always play damage role, even if they make tanks fun to play.

You see, the queue times drove away a lot of players and content creators. Some DPS players are playing Tank or Support now. Do you even play DPS at all? Nobody wants to wait 8 minutes for a quickplay game to lose in 2 minutes because it was a 2CP map and your team got rolled because your tank is actually a DPS main who don’t want to wait in queue.

You are complaining about a TEST, I recommend to calm yourself before rage posting like this. They are giving us the opportunity to test stuff before coming to the game, they are looking for feedback, not your moment of rage and frustration.

I’m just gonna propose the simplest solution and refer to this post Can we skip all this 1-3-2 nonsense and just put a hard limit on tank and support? :wink: Good point Geoxyx :slight_smile:
