Those matches when your QuickPlay team of 6 randos who are not on comms steamrolls a full 6-stack in a party are amazing. Feels so. Damn. Good.

Don't know if it's patch related, but none of my mouse keybinds are working anymore after the patch. Profile works fine in the Logitech software, but not in the game itself; disconnected and reconnected the mouse, restarted my PC, shut down my PC, same result.
Thought it was just me. My ping is usually around 80 but right now it's 120. Think I'm gonna stop soon.
So each year now we're getting less and less cosmetics? Only 4 Legendaries while the hero pool keeps growing is a joke. Also the Epic skins are a joke, they're starting to look like OWL skins. No, thank and you.
Can't complain about Hanzo's tho. Though wish it was more shirtless but whatever

next year he's just going to be wearing a speedo. jk its going to be Torb
So the game is pretty much unplayable on ps4 after the update. Everytime someone uses the communication wheel the screen freezes briefly, pressing options freezes the screen for a second as well before opening the menu, switching heroes also causes a short screen freeze
closing and relaunching the game does help, temporarily
if you're on PC, closing the chat window altogether supposedly prevents the bug

I made an account to see how far I could go one tricking Zarya SoloQ, currently in QP leveling playing whatever and this Genji got obliterated to the point I didn't even see him on my screen.
Also, I found another guy doing the same with a 'Seominsoo' GT and guy was absolutely nutty, charged like 2 gravs in less than a minute.

Is anyone else getting insane performance issues on PS4 Pro, or is my PS4 dying?
EDIT: Should've just read upwards. Glad it isn't my console. WTF did they do?

Good to hear Blizzard is at least listening to concerns about which heroes will suffer the most due to role lock.
It does make me wonder what they'll do with heros like Reaper and Mei considering most of their recent buffs were to combat goats.
Just played a quad support, one tank, one dps game as Pharah on Hollywood and won. So many elims and I basically couldn't die if I picked off their McCree. Yes it helped that the enemy had a Reaper who wouldn't switch and a charge-happy Rein but that was pretty hilarious.
Has Blizzard said anything about an ETA for the patch fix? I'm still having mouse problems, but even though I don't know if it's related to the other issues people are having I want to wait and see if it is before I do anything drastic.
On PS4 Hog's hook chain isn't actually appearing when I throw it out.
Also the sound isn't appearing for enemy ult lines

Not this exact version, It went on PTR 3 weeks ago and they iterated on it internally.
PTR 1.38.0.0.59592
Live 1.38.0.2.60038
Along with Seagull now Fran teasing huge announcement at 11am pst, wonder if a separate thread should happen
The stutters on console are pretty bad. Might have to take a break until they patch it, since I really dislike any type of frame pacing issues.

I'm still hate that McCree buff. I understand "why", but it isn't the thing that character needs.
I just can't see people hyping up either of those announcements this much, 2-2-2 is something that leak a month ago and that we are getting a new hero isn't huge its expected. There has to be more to it. Especially for Seagull to go to Blizzard HQ, he doesn't like traveling, he didn't even go to the Dallas Home stand.
Watchpoint just leak, 2-2-2 Confirms coming to the game soon

I'm keeping my expectations in-check, as every time when there's a "BIG, DRAMATIC ANNOUNCEMENT" for this game, it's either misdirected or not that big of a deal.
Remember the "Internet Breaking D.Va skin" Jeff teased for Anniversary? More players were hyped for Winston and Mei's.

Exactly. Just don't expect anything big so you don't get disappointed. Those ppl are there to hype things up, it's their job.
It's gonna be the role queue announcement (probably seagull streaming or something)
It just seems weird that that would be it since its leaked about 5 million times already.
In one of my first lootboxes, I unlocked WaveRacer D.Va and now I just gained enough coins to buy Cabana Ana. Last year, I got Widow's bikini skin and Mercy's Goddess skin.
With those skins, I have nothing I actually want to get from Summer games anymore. As I mentioned before, I like Torb's, Hanzo's and Genji's new skins, but I don't like any of them more than the ones I already have. Magni/Uprising/Viking Torb, Scion/Cyberninja/Casual Hanzo, and Oni/Sentai/Baihu are all better. If I did unlock them, literally the only way I'd actually use them would be if they put in a "random" option and got them by chance.
I'm mainly saying this because while there have been events where I didn't buy lootboxes before, I've never had an event where I had no interest in buying lootboxes before.
And I wonder how many people feel the same. Because this skin economy...it worked fine for the first few years because everyone was excited about their favorite characters getting awesome skins, and for some that didn't happen for a long time. But now, I have atleast one of what I consider an A+ skin skin for literally every character (Except Hammond, but he's still new, so I'm not sweating it). Because I don't think the skins we have this year are that bad. It sucks that we have less of them, but I still think Torb, Hanzo, and Genji all look great. They just don't look as great as the other great skins we got before, so why would I buy them? And I'm sure others feel the same way as I do, even fi their tastes differ.
This means that Blizzard isn't getting their gambling money nowadays, so they need to find another revenue stream.

Hm....I actually wonder if this is a good thing or not. It will help on 2CP, but it will make all teamfights more decisive, won't it? So less of a chance of those epic saves.
There are stall heroes in each role, Lucio, Hammond, Mei I don't see an issue with that
That doesn't make it a small deal in any shape or form though and most people watching OWL or playing the game in general probably aren't even aware of these leaks. The message needs to reach millions, not just the people browing Reddit or something.
With 2-2-2 being a thing, will there be separate SR's for Damage, Tank, & Support? If so, will there be an SR reset next season?
Yes. That's one thing they've confirmed that with different roles, you get different SR. And it's not sure whether they'll go for a full reset or not, but I imagine doing it any other way is harder than just saying "fuck it, do over"
Not confirmed but jeff likes the idea, im kinda glad ow fucked up my comms so i dont have to play it anymore though

Yeah but people switch to different hero when they have the chance
Also no more cheese strat and change when they get payload (speaking of owl now)
Thanks for all the feedback! I've been having a blast playing. I can't believe I passed on this game for so long!
