As the title says, this version is far from the classic Symmetra everyone has in mind—and I’m not just talking about the design of her secondary attack.
In OW1, her secondary fire had a much much slower projectile speed then in current OW2 version, true. But as a trade-off, it could pierce through multiple enemies and shields.
Now, the projectile disappears as soon as it hits a shield or an enemy. It functions more like the OW2 version, but with a significant nerf—a much slower projectile speed. Shield was also nerfed significantly…
The balancing feels off, and this isn’t really how the classic Symmetra played either.
It feels like the devs hate Symmetra… as if she was OP in OW1… what the heck.
