Let us play Quick Play Classic while we wait. The while you wait feature doesn’t include QPC.

Well, Competitive Classic would still be the preferred solution. What solution do you propose?
- dumping rq altogether
- Comp classic, something I would play.

Do you think Comp Classic should be balanced independently?
yeah, whatever. If the devs see good reasons for that, go ahead.

Yeah. It might take up a bit more of the development team’s resources, but I would much rather they allocate more of their funds to balance Comp Classic than skins, OW2 PVE, etc.
They should certainly weigh the pros and cons and bring Comp Classic to us either way. It would make a LOT of players happy and it would even help those who opt to play Role Queue.

lets be real tho, comp classic is never going to happen, as rq would ultimately ditch forever after bleeding half (if not more) of its players to comp classic.
I think that many people myself included would play both. When I want to play tank I’d play Role Queue, knowing there’s two healers. When I want to play Damage or have more team comp freedom and sometimes swap between Tank and Damage, I’d play Comp Classic.
I don’t believe the Role Queue mode would die altogether, but it would be interesting if what you suggest did happen. In that case, “the playerbase has spoken” and chosen what they want. This is a good outcome. But devs may feel humiliated that their efforts of a year’s development went to waste.

Comp Classic would be a nightmare, simply because there’s no reason for most tank or support players to ever go there. I certainly wouldn’t go in Comp Classic, meaning the experience there would be absolutely shocking. It’d be almost entirely DPS players, even worse than old Comp used to be.

I’m sure we’d survive without you just fine.

No you wouldn’t it would litterally be nothing but steam rolls with double sniper double flanker on both teams with people bickering about how those who loaded in faster locking genji/widow first and how “it’s not fair” and “we need a healer” etc

people including me have played tanks pre-rq, when it was required in situations like you laid out, and they would do it again. If it takes a tank to win, I’ll tank. What I’m not gonna do is locking myself into that role for an entire match with no way out.

Those people have the option to:
- Swap to the needed role
- Play Role Queue
- Buy an SSD
those are also the people who don’t want role queue, and are stubborn enough to not play QPC
so those three options are not “options” to those people
Then they quit the game, no biggie.
Actually those are exactly the type of people who asked for Role Queue in the first place because they were too lazy to use the options already available to them such as grouping with friends.
Now that they have the option of Role Queue they (the control freaks) are still not happy because they have to control how everyone else plays the game.
I think you have that backwards, but whatever makes you sleep at night
Just think about what you’re saying logically. Those who complained that “it’s not fair” and “we need a healer” etc are the very people who, logically, would want Role Queue.
I imagine you are part of that group of people and are now trying to project your own feelings onto others because you don’t like the fact that some people will have fun in Comp Classic. Everything must be done your way.
Remember that the rest of us just minded our own business and played the game.
We were happy with freedom queue.
We didn’t throw a tantrum when we didn’t get our way.
We would be more than happy with Competitive Classic.
I am thinking about things logically, in that humanity and these people you describe are wholly illogical… they complained they never “got healed” when they were DPS, and now they’re complaining that DPS queue times are too long… its not hard
not at all, I don’t have “feelings” because I have Asperger’s syndrome so your imagination is incorrect…
some people may have fun in a “comp classic” mode… but those same people can have exactly the same amount of the “fun” they desire by playing QPC which is already in the game they are just to stubborn and pig ignorant to play it…
and no if it were done my way, things would be drastically different…
which is exactly the kind of mentality that made role queue necessary
which is why every game I used to play had 5 DPS complaining we had no tank and no one was getting healed?.. because I was the healer and I was always dead because I was the only one on the objective actually playing the game properly…
not in my experience
then you have nothing to complain about because QPC is a thing, and you can play that, it has exactly everything you’re searching for, the same maps, the same heros, the same 6v6 and the same balance, the only thing it doesn’t have is a few little numbers that rise and fall at random based on whether the MM system made a mistake in your favour or against you… so what you’re telling me if you don’t want to play QPC is that you are so petty and childish that you need a “rank” that means literally nothing, to be happy… right oh then…

what do you think people play comp for?
Its not always strictly golden guns, its also the competitive spirit which people are up to and where a win means something. They often despise the “ist just QP, bro”-mentality which is why QP(C) is not a viable option to them. How can you miss this important point? What do you play comp for?
After thousands of comp battles I can tell this is a blatant lie. 5 DPS was a rare sight, maybe in the pre-match phase but when the match started people usually sorted roles out properly.
