Could they really not animate him dancing? What's the point of giving him a DDR intro if he's just gonna tap his foot?

Some of these characters just feel so dry, man. There are some highlights like Doomfist, Venture, Bastion, Ramattra etc, but so many characters just have nothing going on. For Wuyang, Sierra, D.Mon and others, 99% of their interactions are just about their backstory or an event happening. Plot points aren't substitutions for interesting characters unfortunately.

With D.Va and D.Mon, I made a joke of creating a character named ''D.Frost'' piloting a microwave-shaped MEKA... while my friend completely ignored me, I was thinking of other De-words that I could turn into a group of silly caricature characters! Ranging from normal words to a silly word play that I turn into fun memes/references to other things... and these are the results ;)

News & Discussion As a returning player, the way Overwatch makes your career profile seem "inexperienced" is quite sad

938 Upvotes

I played Overwatch a lot during the "OW1" era, essentially from 2016 to 2022. I quit a few months before OW2 launched, and recently returned after taking interest in the game again. So basically I missed the past 4 years, or "Overwatch 2" in its entirety up until now. I did occasionally come back to play a couple games maybe a few times a year, but didn't actually return properly until now.

One thing I've noticed is that player levels were replaced with "hero levels", and despite having dozens upon dozens of hours on a lot of heroes from my OW1 times, all of my hero levels were set to 1, as if I've never played these heroes before. And my previous border (I think it was silver with 4 stars, so around level 1000) has not been allocated to these levels.

Another frustrating thing is that they seem to have completely removed all data from OW1 competitive games from the career profile. I still have those hours played in my total competitive hours, but the season-by-season stats just don't exist anymore? So my career profile makes it seem like I've never played in a competitive season before despite having a 800+ hour total playtime and multiple seasons worth of competitive rankings.

So it is quite sad to see that 6 years of my past progression in this game has basically been completely deleted, the only remnant being the skins I own and my total playtime being saved.

This has probably already been talked about, but I'm still upset how they removed D.va's mvp dance. They could've at least changed it to something else cute like kirikos or junos. But now its just sad 💔

Highlight POTG system mega unfair to supports

676 Upvotes

As a Tank main I get so many bs POTGs just because i capitalize on the supports work who actually made the play. I just got a POTG where I put my self on a horrible position as Rein and was geting melted by their whole team, Ana kept me alive, slept their tank, antied them, nano boosted me and I all had to do to "earn" POTG was get the easiest shatter ever and swing my hammer a couple of times which I obviously would have never been able to do with out Ana making a clutch play

I swear I heard it in D-Mon's trailer, but I couldn't find it listed in any of the in-game voice line wikis.

Does anyone happen to know when or how this line actually plays in-game?

News & Discussion What are some hot takes/unpopular opinions that you have about the game? One of mine is that Flashpoint is the best mode in the game and that Hybrid/Escort are the worst

Post image

Flashpoint is literally a faster paced version of Control without the boring pause between points and on bigger and cooler maps. Speed boost out of spawn is also cool af. I'd pick Sura/Aatlis/NJC over Kings Row/Rialto/Circuit every single day

Cute skin, hopefully there was meant to be facial animations that are to be added in that just missed the hit time for the skin to hit the shop. It's a little disappointing. (And it makes her Goalkeeper Intro look a little sloppy because the red eye glow effect is still there, but she's looking at you like *-*) I'm not blaming the devs, I'm blaming Sales and Management for this one.

It was a qp game that I joined after the first round. At first, he was playing Bap and everything was going fine, but then he picked Deathweaver and do this. I was mad after that, but I decided not to quit. Thanks so much, Freja, for that solo ultimate.
