I don’t think these are any good as you still need to wait ages to queue as a DPS. Takes pretty much the same amount of time than without one.
Kind of pointless having them.
The point of them is to get people to play tank; DPS queue times are so high because the system needs to wait until 2 tanks are available before it can start a game.
the differences are minute yes, ultimately it’s not nothing at the very least.
but yeah honestly there’s very little they can do to make people choose the other 2 roles as they are not the conventional power fantasies that people think of and also has the least amount of options to choose from.
they really did mess up going 2-2-2 in terms of qeue times, and for what? to make the game slightly more viable competitively when it haven’t really been that competitive to begin with.
i know i know, it sucked much more playing the other 2 roles without 2-2-2 but really, how much did it really matter?
I dunno man, back then people wanted 2-2-2 in-game and it went well but now it’s forced. I guess people are tired of it now. The queue times are a lot worse and it was mainly 2-2-2 before this change for me because people wanted to win.
back then people wanted 2-2-2 because match quality and better games for supports and tanks and also the imaginary thought that more people would play tanks and support because it would be more fun to play if you got stable compositions and queue times would fix itself because who would sit in a 30 minute queue, no one or so they thought.
but yeah now were here because people rather wait than play tank or support.
if you ask me i think they could basically remove the 2 other roles and a lot more people would play the game than they do now.
I personally prefer playing tank than healer or dps. I just prefer defending a team than attacking. Although I do play aggressive many times when needed. Before, I used to main Reaper / Rat for DPS, but I much rather play Rein nowadays.
i’d rather play hanzo/reaper than anything else but i can have fun on any character regardless of role.
sadly the community just is not fun to play with because it allways devolves into people being pissed at each other.
and that’s not something blizz can solve.
Does it happen much in Quickplay?
all the time, you even get the “do as i say or i will throw” people in there on a frequent basis.
like there’s atleast 1 in every game, atleast 1.
i tried competitive the first 2 years but it was just awful around the second year, then i just went full out only QP because who really cares in QP, apparently it’s almost the same amount of negativity if not more sometimes because people don’t have a common goal of winning atleast the game to put their pitchforks down.
