Overwatch 2 Is Just 'Overwatch' Again And Five New Heroes Arrive Next Week
-
IIRC he just washed his hands and moved on from it, which probably was the right call given the Acti-Blizz merger and Microsoft buyout.
“Microslop”
-
There used to be an r/EmreMains when the name first appeared in lore. That must have been almost 5 years ago, and now they've finally released the hero. I don't know what they expected, but I'd figure that almost everyone who was there previously has moved on, I certainly have.
-
I'm right there with you. I think the hamster was the last new hero I played with.
Those were good times.
Now they're adding a cat with a jetpack, which I would love if they gave her a better name than Jetpack Cat.
I mean, to be clear, I never liked Overwatch. Back when it was new, my friends were so into it that playing it with them was the only way we'd spend any time together. They're the ones who miss that launch game, lol.

I took a long break from overwatch after the release of overwatch 2, but they have been made some big changes that have brought me back.
No more heros locked behind battle passes, free loot boxes, 6v6, great performance, sound design and the new perk system is nice. The game is more balanced than it ever was as overwatch 1, even it it's still not perfect.
I don't agree with everything, paid skins are absurdly expensive, and heros do seem designed to sell skins, but that's really not new either.
Is Nanoblade genji back yet? That's the reason I left for the final time

why does this game ask for my phone no. to play?
-

Because it's free to play and it's supposed to be a deterrent to smurfing.
-
Being a rehash/continuation of the same game was the case since Overwatch 2 came out as they dropped the PvE plans, so it wouldn't be news.
Right, which is why I thought it was weird there was an article being published about it and assumed it was untimely drivel since the game was released in 2022. Again, it didn't make sense to me as posted and I had to click into the article to sort it out.
All that to say, it wasn't abundantly clear to me just based on the title of the post.

You seem knowledgeable about modern blizzard. What are the women who work there saying about equality? Would the breast milk thing happen again today?

Activision does that with all their games now.
It’s the reason I won’t buy a new COD game.

I wouldn't know anything about that, but with respect to the overwatch team, they don't seem to be implicated in that controversy.
I can't imagine the fight for equality in game dev is over, but at the same time I haven't heard anything particularly controversial. If you have other evidence of wrong doing do let me know.

Well Ana now has a perk that gives speed boost to nano. That combo has always been good, but with that it would be even better.
-
man, games are taken so seriously these days that they resort to smurfing.
-
What if someone made the hytale of terraria?
I mean, there's already Starbound...
-

Well, there might've been some change that made it even more like the original, which could've prompted such a title either way...
-
But not Global Offensive.
Global Offensive is still playable (at least the core gameplay) in the csgo_legacy branch of CS2 on Steam.

Huh, thanks.

"Jetpack cat"? Really? That desperate, huh?

Overwatch is close to being a decade old btw.
It’s so unfortunate what they did to Overwatch, wonder how Jeff Kaplan and the original Team feels about all that.
As great as Jeff was, he's the one that did all the stuff to Overwatch.
As far as I've heard/read he was never really interested in making a PVP game, he wanted to make Titan, the MMO. Then he got another chance with OW2 and the PVE mode, and even got an offer to make a separate dev team that would focus on PVP, so he could put his all into PVE, but declined, so the game was left to die (even though it never really died). Then PVE in OW2 was a bust again and he left.

It's been that way for a long time. The term smurfing, I think, originated with Warcraft II.
