Director’s Take: Our Development Values, Part 1 — Overwatch 2
In this first Director’s Take blog of the year, Aaron Keller looks at goals and plans for Overwatch 2 in 2024.
The quicker "Assemble Team" in the hacked event is god sent. How many times I alt-tabbed while waiting only to get back in the game when I hear 5-4-3... "Oh fuck it's defense"
Not enough time to properly regroup makes QP: Hacked more annoying for me, because most games feel like a single big fight. Additionally, the short respawn time gives an advantage to fast heros, while stalling for team mates to arrive makes Mei and similar stronger compared to regular QP.
Whether a match is good or bad means much less to me if I have 3 more in the next 20 minutes.
Edit: But I'd also like shorter match preparation time in quick play.
I wanted to play push maps or the ones with payload. I only played a few capture the point, and I agree with you, the game was too short.
Anyways, I like they are experimenting different things
If support passives don’t get a huge buff I think I’m deleting this game :(
