Everyone needs to spam blizzard/Jeff telling them to remove role Queue before the next event
spam #rolequeueruinedOW
If you want RQ to be removed please make this happen
We hate the wating times and not having the freedom to play who we want when something is just not working on the team

Even if we held them hostage they would never revert anything. Never have, never will. They do not care how broken things are because they already have our money.

I have an idea, letâs ask the protesters in that specific city to start yelling âWE LOVE ROLE QUEUEâ that will fix this for sure

I kind of agree with you, even knowing the chances that it will change are so tiny that they cannot be visibly observed with the best microscopes.
Itâs restrictive and from my personal experience (key word, personal) it doesnât balance the matches. From what I saw, either my team would bulldoze the enemy team within 30 seconds, not fun as thereâs no challenge or the enemy would do just that to us. I try to work with people, but the problem is not the heroes or role queue. It is and always has been that some players are just bad people and forcing us to be stuck as a specific class of hero for the duration of a match, unable to change our role to best adapt and survive didnât solve anything. It just made a larger percentage of the community more hostile and repugnant than Iâve ever seen them before.
I hate to accuse people of this but I swear, half of the DPS players I got where trolling the games because I refuse to believe they where all that bad at playing. I donât judge when someone picks any hero, because after all they might be really good at it but when our Doomfist player just tries to see how high he can jump with his rocket fist, when our Soldier 76 decides to stand in the open, a mile away from our shields and protection as he sprays where the enemy used to be, getting snipped up and down the garden path, when our Widowmaker exclusively engages in close quarters gun fights with Bastionâs then itâs all to clear to me that the role queue has just brought out the worst in more players than ever before.
I would love to see this reverted, I never had a problem with the team compositions before this, hell my teams in the past have beaten well rounded teams with only dps characters and the gorilla. Why? Because we where the more skilled players, we knew our characters, what to do and what not to do. A good comp doesnât ensure victory.
The waiting times for DPS is upsetting, I donât always want to play healer or tank and I shouldnât have to compromise having fun, in a mathc in the past if we needed another healer/tank Iâd happily shift to one but being forced to just isnât fun.
I only hope some day the overwatch devs listen to our voices here, although they announced overwatch 2 recently so itâs obvious they are the biggest trolls of all.

I uninstalled OW for that. Iâm for example flexible player (i rlly dont mind playing tanks sometime). But mostly i played Ana or hitscans dps and i dont have much time to sit in queue for healer or dps role. (I enjoyed days playing Ana/cree/sold). Until they fix (fix=delete) mm role queue OW is dead for me. Sad

ok bye, nobody misses you.
@OP the games neither dead nor ruined, your opinion doesnât matter because you are in the extreme minority.
If you want âfreedomâ to play 6 DPS, go to QPC.
Ow is dead in the sense that devs killed what the game was supposed to be because of player whinning. 2-2-2 is boring and will get old fast

Except for the fact itâs not dead in any sense.
Going back to the original concept of the game, it originally had no limits on how many times you could pick Winston, so the original 222? Winston/Tracer/Genji.
Did people whine about that being sent to the arcade? Sure, and itâs now seen as just that, an arcade mode. The same will be said of QPC, just an arcade mode.
222 is boring to DPS players because they seem to believe theyâre more important, theyâre not, the games now able to put all roles equally and treat the balance better for that format, not having to worry about buffing/nerfing to fix or get around certain metas

that would explain why they put so ittle effort into events. Not riding a dead horse anymore.
Games not dead, your opinion is not fact, flagged for trolling.

U can shove that flag where the sun donât shine. U talk like Iâm a dps player yet my most played hero is Ana, and yeah I get things change but 2-2-2 was not why I bought the game. I liked how u could switch roles in game depending on what u needed and I bet most players did as well

And you can grow up and get over yourself.
You donât like 222? Isnât it great then that you have:
- Every arcade mode available
- QPC for non-role locked gameplay
- DM / TDM
And if you want to do Competitive, you can do âwhilst you waitâ to do any of the above. If youâre also a support player, the queue times (just like tanks) are seriously quick.
The problem with âswitch roles depending on whats neededâ is that it always lead to 3+ DPS, rarely was a switch made off a DPS onto a tank or support. That is no longer (thankfully) possible.

Ur being very adversarial with no reason mate, ow is dead, this new thing ainât bad but ainât ow. Ur the one that needs to get over urself, maybe dislodge ur head from ur anus
And yes ppl didnât switch cause they wanted to play what they wanted, is that so bad? Itâs self centered pricks like u who whined so much that took that freedom from the players, I loved the multy dps comps, multy healers or multy tanks. Nothing was better than getting 6 supports and winning, but guys like u who only think of urselves decided to limit the freedom of others cause u think u gon climb higher, get over urself, itâs a game

Because like many others around here who canât grow up nor get over themselves, you offer no evidence whatsoever, itâs just the same crap over and over
ow is dead becuz i said so
Grow up already, get over yourself and realise your opinion is neither fact nor right.
The only one here who is a self-centered prick is you. You have the freedom to go and play meme strats in QPC.
get over yourself

So u want ppl to provide sources and make studies or get a PhD in game design to talk about the games they play and paid for? Forums are for ppl to speak their OPINIONS, u think u deserve more than that mister big shot? And I did give u reason to why I say the game is dead, itâs u who have ur head so far up ur own a$$ dat u canât even read. I play with wat i get, I got a crippled version of ow, I play with that. If in the good old days I got meme team I played with that. Ur the one that needs to get over himself like seriously keep that narcissism in check budy. Also u the one saying " game is better now cause I say so"
Your opinion means nothing when compared to the actual data from the Devs, of which theyâve stated that RQ and 222 locked has been positively received and in the majority.
Your opinion is irrelevant, you donât play with a crippled version of the game - you choose to cripple it with an opinion that doesnât matter.
QPC is in the arcade for meme teaming, otherwise get used to how OW is now.
I go by what the Devs state, as they have the data, the actual evidence that shows how the games going.
So yes, get over yourself already and grow up
Yes devs got the data, u donât. U believe what they tell u and donât thin for urself and u still on ur high horse talking $hit about others ppls opinions like urs is more valid because some guys, who have in their best interest to do so, say that it has been well received by the majority. Nah fam, a lot of ppl invested a lot of time in this game and are willing to play a downgraded version. I wouldnt call that well recived, most players would continue to play either way. Oh damn I might need a source on that lemme just hire a polling agency to do a survey on the ow players.
