Overwatch (2)

Anyone here playing this even casually ? Still enjoying it even though it looks like we're forced on EU with worse ping because the Bahrain servers are gone.

Yeah, I'm still playing. I enjoyed trying Juno out. I think there's still fun to be had but I spend most of my time in Arcade.

Stopped after one month. The balance just wasn't there with one tank missing.

The game feels more balanced for a single tank now. OW1 with 2 shield tanks wasn't a great deal of fun imo. I'm still very casual about the meta and stuff so I can't really say much more.

They've reworked BAE (Pharah) massively, so I'm happy! They also gave everyone passive healing which is quite a big change. There's been new maps, characters and game modes. They are trying but I understand why it still won't appeal to some, nor regain OW1 fans.

I still play it daily
Mostly just MH and QP

I'd only return to comp if comp mystery heroes comes back

I have not played it in months, maybe even a year and decided to try it yesterday as I keep getting those blizzard emails telling me about new silliness in the game.

Jumped into some QP and was just rife with same old, quitters and throwers, I was put into about three games on the Defeat screen as people quit their matches, played an actual match, one of those new capture the three points maps, we owned the other team and could see two players just quit during the match, makes it no fun.

Tried the Hero Mastery for D.va, Soldier and Mei it feels a bit a boring overall.

Pretty good read on many of the OW changes over the years including thoughts on 6v6 and 5v5:

Director's Take: Opening up the conversation on 5v5 and 6v6

Let’s kick off the discussion on 6v6, why the team went to 5v5, and where we go from here.
