I'm gonna park myself in Mystery Heroes and randomly lob Junkrat grenades everywhere while spamming voice lines, just like the old days

Finally got in and spammed some junk grenades in mystery heroes for while. I had a reasonably good time doing so.

Sure does seem like some Overwatch-rear end Overwatch! Worst thing I can really say about it is I guess I gotta re-queue after every match now? Oh, and suddenly it takes too many clicks of my hello button to get D.Va to say "hey daddio" with her Cruiser skin equipped, what the hell

Turning this into a F2P game (free-to-start, whatever) has had some funny effects, like last night when I somehow managed to fully back-cap a point by myself as Tracer while the entire enemy team was busy picking random fights around the spawn. I don't think I've seen that happen since 2016

Got my first OW2 POTG via D.Va dunk, as you do

I'd like to think the Goldenboy tag in the kill feed is the Goldenboy but that's probably a stretch

Heh, pretty sure some of my dailies today are bugged and won't progress, plus the weekly challenge for healing somehow reset itself with two hours left :shepface:

They probably need more than just a couple hours of emergency maintenance is what I'm saying

If you don't earn a hero through the battle pass before the season ends, after the season the hero can be unlocked via challenges. So don't think if you miss out you simply can't get it later

Hero locks also seem to be specific to comp so if you're like me and all you do is bounce between Mystery Heroes and the arcade modes then the battle pass really is just cosmetics, maybe they'll make that worse next time though depending on where the bulk of the playerbase settles, but for now for me personally the only thing in there of interest is maybe the D.Va EDM skin, and is that :10bux: worth of interest? Ehh

Progression is too slow though and they probably need some extra hook that isn't a lootbox to replace the old OW1 level ups, especially for those times when you finish a hard fought lengthy match but don't finish any challenges so the best you get for your time is one more inch on the bar towards some middling cosmetic you don't care about

Isn't match XP a trickle compared to Daily/Weekly challenges?

Compared to the challenges, yeah, match XP seems about the same as it was in OW1 after the daily first win bonus. At least for my beer league rear end, anyway. If performance bonuses are still a thing I wouldn't know about that

A lot of old unforced errors largely unseen since 2016 are returning to us once again, truly nature is healing

Mystery Heroes also takes the edge off chat toxicity a bit since most players will chill out and roll with the punches knowing that team composition is out the window

It looks like you're trying to Kitsune Rush. Would you like some help?

I had a real bonding experience with my fellow souls lost in limbo. Even left and was re-queued back into the same room, so I had to accept my fate.
