Taking a look back at previous tank changes, early learnings from S11, and a look ahead at future balance changes

Straight stat buffs seems to be the wrong direction and has never worked - what would actually make tanks more fun to play?
- Let all tanks play in third person mode or first person mode with the press of a button
- give tanks a rare view mirror passive

How have they still not fixed this since forcing everyone to OW2?
They should of scrapped OW2 along with the PVE. Bring back the OG Overwatch, make it free to play if necessary along with the terrible Shop/even more shocking BattlePass.

Abosolute joke of a dev team.
“We still like many of the game wide changes that were implemented over the last few seasons - the projectile size increase, the headshot damage and knockback reduction on tanks, and the passive health regeneration on all heroes.” Here’s the thing, no one cares what you like, we are the players. Just imagine if walmart decided to only sell sponges because “they like it”.
“We’re putting together a patch that is targeted at increasing the tankiness of many of these heroes, but we’re doing it through individual changes to each of them. Ideally these changes would build on a hero’s fantasy. Increasing the health of Reinhardt’s shield is a good example of accomplishing both of those goals.” How many times will you have to repeadly make the same mistake over and over again. Nobody likes shooting shields. Yes it’s that simple, buff reinhardts hp instead of his shields hp.
“Balance in the game is very nuanced and doesn’t just depend on the total power level or win rate of a hero.” No it’s not, then everybody wouldn’t be calling it counterwatch would they. The whole issue with the game right now is the fact that there are standout heroes that are way stronger than others which forces people to counterpick.
“When Reinhardt hits a 60% win rate, which is considered very high for us, and is played often there are few complaints. When a hero like Roadhog does this (he recently topped out at around 54%), the community reacts… differently.” Don’t try to turn this on us, like it’s our fault the game is boring when roadhog is busted. Roadhog has so much hp and a one shot combo that can punish you from almost anywhere. Reinhardt has a hammer…
“community perception also guide our decisions.” Stop lying, if you really did you would of done what literally every single player on this planet that have played both ow1 and ow2 wants and brought 6v6 back. Like they’re even going to read this.
How many solutions will you try before you finally just realise that maybe you cant spend 10 years building a game for 6v6 and then flush everything down the toilet and make the game 5v5.

This.
They have lied on the reasons for releasing OW2. The PVE project failed, matchmaking is still dire and almost always one-sided. The counterwatch generated by going 5v5 in mental.
Bring back OW. Bring back stability. Bring back 6v6. It works.
