- Ranked
Threre are a lot of different porblems with the rank mode. Many games suffer from it.
The main porblems here are, that this is a team game
In starcraft 2 the better you are and the better you get, you´ll rank up to the point when you´re not smart or fast enough.
In Overwatch you always have 5 more players you have to rely on when playing a game.
But way to often, you can´t.
In a perfect game you are always able to win 50% of all time, which would make it perfectly balanced. The problem it ist creating is a stagnation. In the end most of players will remain in their rank regadless of how good they have become.
I´m able to see more and more players with silver and gold portraits in silver and gold, and they were never able to ever rank.
This will lead to a mayor frustration to a lot of players and they, like myself now, will pick whatever they want because after 10 seasons and still the same, why should it ever change.
Another problem are beginners. There is no doupt that the game is designed to get into everyting very fast, but if you get a lv 30 in a game who has only played Hanzo, this might be a problem. They will never have the experience to help in the game.
In the end , the experience for the team will be ruined.
Solutions:
- you need at least LV 100 to be able to enter any ranked mode.
this will assure you know what you do
this will get smurfs away, they take way longer and the system can better look how good they are - Level system for heroes
you can only enter ranked if you have 3 heroes of each cathegory on level 5 (look at Level System) - 10 sec waiting time, after getting into game
this should assure that fast PC/Internet, etc. can not go by the " i picked first argument" - restriciton in FPS
the better the PC the better the game, restrict it to 100 so that the mass can play,
( I only can afford a Notebook, max is 60 FPS) - prefer system next to the new group system (look at 4.Interface)
I hope that these solutions can help people in ranked to get more interesting games.
It is interesting if the game ends 4 to 5 or 2 to 3 but not 3 to 0
Drops and Rage quit
if you drop and cant get in again , you´ll only loose 25 points
if you quit with the button you´ll loose 100 points
if you loose with only 5 or less players in your team you will loose at least 10 points less
if you win with only 5 or less players in your team you will win at least 10 points more
if you loose with only 5 or less players in your enemys team you will loose at least 5 points more
if you win with only 5 or less players in your enemys team you will win at least 5 points less

- Hero Level System
you can level a hero by playing him, you can get a lootbox with each new level,
every 5 level you can choose a random item
every 25 level you can choose a legendary item
you do not gain a “overlevel” when a hero gets a level
after level 10 you get a new portrait, and 5/15/20 will give you a special spray or movement
( a little bit similar to heroes of the storm)
-Reporting AFTER the game
- friend inviting after the 2 minutes
you can invite a fried to help if the 2 minutes are expired, if the player get´s in again hell dorp out again.
The invited player will get and loose only half - hard AI after drop --> helps with mass on the point
hightest new ranking is PLAT
i met a lot new players which were put very high and lost nearly 800 points in 2 weeks

- Interface
- change private so that you have to activate it
- more diverse classes, ability to activate this:
- Flanking
- Tanking
- Hitscan
- Healing
- Crowd/Area control
- Specialist
- Mulitclass
- second prefer system:
- you can choose 3 heroes of the gorund class as “preferred to play as” and 2 heroes to “do not want to play”
for example: i like to play Roadhoag and Zary but i dislike Reinhardt, with the System now i only can say Tank.
This will not change the rank program, just by pressing P you can look at the Player. - Prefer as tank at the Portrait, can be activated and deactivated, helps with ranked
Idea: a little sign with a cross will say i want to play a healer now
- new portraits:
diamond after plat
than you can choose for ruby, emerald and sappyre, you can get them all and switch these 3 around
A 20 minute training program if you pick a hero you haven´t played
it shows how it works, what you can do (you have to use the abilities) and what it can archeive

- New Heroes / Rework
Reworks
Symetra
back to healer
6 turrets: 3 hold, 3 healing
Turrets can no longer apply damage, just slow down
main attack less damage, high slow,
secendary charches with main, only this can apply damage
Symetra was a always a support and not a healer, but i hope with this changes she can support again and with the healing ability, get back into her cathegory
Mei
slows takes longer but bigger area, secendary charges a little bit faster
second weapon shoots the ice first freeces and sets a trap
new ability, ice trap, person freeces

I love Mei, but she often dose simply not work, i hope shell be better with some changes.
Torbjörn
turret 100 shield, lockon takes longer, shorter range,
lv 1 turret short range, lv2 higher
100 scrap at the start, limit at 300
Just change him a little bit
Bastion

this should help him to survive longer
so he can survive a little bit better
Mcree
flashbang one sec down
to help the mass
Soldier 76
Healing Pot: more range and faster, less solo healing, the more in the circle the more it heals
For Multiclass and a support helper

- Map changes/ New Maps, gamemodes
Current map changes
Assult:
This is sadly the worst game mode,
you get rushed and have to try to hold for 8 minutes,
you hold but then youll loose the last second
you run into a wall…
too less to do on the map
´Solution:
change the 2 cp to 3 cp
get destructables, like for example
Hanamura: hole in the ground at the right --> 1000 hp new entry
Volskaya: arm of robot left shootable: new entry
able to collaps sth on the point
I hate these kind of maps so i hope that these changes might get this gamemode to be a little bit more interesting
Mapeditor:
blank map, you can build walls, can put in points, to conquer
light elevation
a bunch of stuff to put in (ballons, pinniatas)
New gamemode:
Horde, inspired by heroes of the storm and DR. Junkenstine
try to destroy 3 objectives, bigger every time,
Hordes are Robots, you get more with two points, to activate with one of it before the objective
all 3 objectives have shields
maybe door than turrets than main objective (maybe something important)
Overwatch was build to be easy understandable but a gamemode like this might be interesting, all the stuff is already implemented, so…
Map ideas:
Black forest: germany you push through a fild to a forest to an old big house
Yucatan: Mayan Temple with base in it
blachwatch base: southeast islands
omnic aromory: in Norway in the snow
If you managed to get here,
Thank you for reading all of it, Overwatch is one of the best games I´ve ever played and i hope that it will be around for the next years.
