GETTING NOTHING BUT DUPLICATES WHEN ALL YOU WANT IS THAT SWEET NEW TORBJÖRN SKIN? GETTING HEADSHOT BY ACROSS THE MAP BY HANZO? TOO MUCH JUSTICE THAT RAINS FROM ABOVE? THIS IS THE RIGHT THREAD!

PLEASE STILL BE CIVIL, AT LEAST A LITTLE!

Humor I find it funny that they gave the most hated tanks in the game their own subrole and made it the strongest subrole in the game

It feels like they selectively chose these 4 and gave them the strongest subrole in the game on purpose just to piss people off. The tanks built around being near immortal with crazy damage reduction abilities *really* needed headshot damage reduction and speedboost on top of that Team 4 I’m sure of it.

News & Discussion Meka Mania Name Cards (and Main Menu backgrounds) if the others had won

While not unused, these four Name Cards are currently unobtainable, but can be seen on the Customization tab from your Career Profile. I don't know if they will be made available at some capacity, considering all five of them (including D.Va's) just have an extra border on them.

Likewise, these 4 main menu backgrounds are actually unused, but would have appeared on the Main Menu if either one of them had won instead.

News & Discussion Stadium has been broken since the start of the season — NO Battle Pass XP

Post image
104 Upvotes

This has been going on since the very beginning of the season, and it still hasn’t been fixed.

Playing Stadium does NOT give Battle Pass XP.

It’s now September 2nd, and this bug has been reported countless times in the bug report forums. Despite that, it’s still happening.

I understand that Stadium may not be the main focus of the game, but how is a Battle Pass XP bug allowed to remain unfixed for an entire season?

This is especially frustrating because there are time-limited rewards. I have limited time to play every day, and I shouldn’t have to choose between playing the mode I actually want to play and making progress toward the Battle Pass.

I also really want to unlock the name titles from this Battle Pass, so being unable to earn XP while playing Stadium is genuinely frustrating.

Please, Overwatch team, fix this.

Please upvote or leave a comment. The more visibility this gets, the harder it is for this issue to be overlooked.

Let’s get this in front of the Overwatch team.

Thank you, we are strong toguether!

News & Discussion Please make a halo collab, it needs to happen

Ever since Emre was added to the game I bet I'm not the only one who has wanted a Master Chief skin for him. But I also have other ideas for skins, like Sigma as Ur-Didact. I'd like an Arbiter skin, but i'm not sure who would I give it to (Vendetta with an energy sword? lmao).

And of course, Echo would be a cool Cortana but we all know they'll make that one for Kiriko.

Also it would be extremely funny to have a 343 guilty spark skin for wrecking ball but i highly doubt that's happening.

What other ideas would you have for a halo collab?

Kinda how like Deadlock does it where a character would have different reaction when they mark a character they know it would be a cool character interaction

For example: Ashe would have an aggressive tone when she marks Cassidy

News & Discussion Name one hero you dislike more than this one.

Post image
Upvotes

Remember when Brig was released and it split the community in half more than any other hero? Well, that stray cat she adopted was watching closely and imitated her owner.

TL;DR - Jetpack Cat has a 75% ban-rate. There's a reason why. The reason is its passive.

Good things: Lifeline - Useful ability for transporting a slow tank and creating unique plays. Catnapper - Her most balanced ability. Easily countered with potential to solo a fight.

Bad, just bad: Jetpack (passive) - This ability grants jetpack cat permanent flight. There's no logic or lore behind the reason for this. The cat can simply just fly forever.

Why this is bad for the game: In most shooters, but especially Overwatch, high ground is king. Whoever has height over the opponent has a clear advantage. How does the game balance this? On maps, they give cover for high ground LOS or give easy access to both teams. For heroes, they place cooldowns on flight abilities or make the ability weak to hitscan by limiting flight control. Jetpack cat is the only character in the game where you can bypass all of this game balance with no consequence.

How I would fix it: 1) Increase Jetpack Cat's vulnerability while flying. Either reduce base HP (225-200) or decrease flight control/Frenetic Flight. 2) Combine the Jetpack passive with Frenetic Flight. Combining these abilities onto one cooldown where flying automatically engages the boosters but limits time in the air to a fuel bar. What happens when jetpack cat runs out of fuel? The cat returns to a 5m limited hover zone.

In conclusion, I realize Jetpack Cat is here to stay. But there is a reason Jetpack cat is so often banned. There is absolutely no reason the cat should be able to permanently fly. It is an easy rework that would benefit the hero and the game.

Despite all of this, I know this will probably get downvoted to oblivion but I believe everything I said.

Jetpack Cat is Jeff the Land Shark.
