I know there's no practical way of doing it without turning into China but I'd pay another 60 bux to never be matchmade into a team with children on it ever again.

I just want to say I am kinda glad you only get one tank. A team with DVA and Orisa would be insane.

This is exactly my jam and I've wanted something like this since the Starcraft Use Map Settings days. Is this new with OW2 or just since I left OW1 5 years ago? https://youtu.be/ozFu_f6Qv5g

OW2 keeps crashing on my PC for reasons I can’t figure out, so I linked my Nintendo account and I am now playing on Switch. I didn’t realize it was possible for me to be worse at this game, but here we are. Also I can’t decide if the movement tracking on the controller is helpful or cursed.

Now that you mention it, the 40 dollar price tag combined with blizzard banning the gently caress out of people when they cheated, griefed, bought accounts and stuff helped improve matchmaking a lot. and now that price tag is gone

I had never planned to play OW2 on my Switch, but I downloaded it anyways and only use it to browse the shop. I also get $5 Nintendo eShop credit from my Gamestop Pro account every month so yay free poo poo.

Is Junkrat's Ult callout bugged? I had a match where I got no cue for 3 of them. Or he used them all very close range, if it's just a mechanics thing?

The free price tag probably means more complete noobs to fill up b5, but we'll have to see once stats are out

Smurfs and cheaters can easily get new phone numbers that validate through apps like talkatone, but they charge a premium for sms verification for like $2. One of the first search engine hits you get for advice for cheap blizz phone number verification is a cheat forum lol a freemium blizzard-activision game called cod:warzone had phone number verification and slightly significant grind-2-win and cheating was still rampant comedyblissoption fucked around with this message at 20:54 on Oct 16, 2022 |

Noobs into gold or maybe high silver is how it worked in OW1, but not 2. You'd rise or fall very fast after that though as your MMR stabilized. Like 50-100 SR per game.

I'm assuming this because I am trash and was placed there. [edit] Finished my weekly challenges with 19 hours to spare, whew. The 20 team kill one is kinda dumb.

That should be 5 team kills, and the other weekly that's like "10 wins of two different roles" should be something like "5 wins with each role" and have a tracker.

But why would they spend effort on something that will lose them money? If you make weeklies annoying enough then more people will give in and just buy stuff instead. Those are the pro F2P strats.

Honestly the weekly rewards should be drastically increased, and there should be a larger reward for full completion than just winning a few games or whatever the easiest tier is.

20 team kills sucks; I wasn't feeling well and didn't feel like playing video games this week and after 4ish hours of grinding arcade for 7 wins (which I got), I've progressed teamkills by two. I think I'll just have to live with missing :10cents: of overbux As an aside open queue being always on in arcade is frustrating, I'm very tired of 2-3 tank deathball novaSphere fucked around with this message at 23:56 on Oct 16, 2022 |

I don't think I have 20 team kills since launch. I have 10 this week and had like 5 week one. I don't know where to check playtime but it's quite a bit, my friends have been super into it. I'm not good at this game at all, but I can tell from some lobbies I've played in I'm nowhere near as bad as it can get either.

Sombra needs a nerf I think. I've been playing her in DPS placements and she drives the other team completely insane. If they all don't peel at once it's like a squishy insta-delete
