It doesn’t work. It creates long waiting times. It removes choice. It makes every match play the same. It makes players of different classes hate each other. It doesn’t fix any issues it was supposed to fix. It just makes the game miserable instead. Somebody tell Jeff to restore the game to what it used to be.

no… bad idea… triple shields would be to annoying X3
Also just play quickplay classic… finally there is something reliably decent you can play to grind weekly lootboxes (well assuming you dont run into some kind of tripple shield nightmare comp…

Long wait times for dps.
You still have a choice.
Most of the matches played the same anyway with either double meta comps or throw from one or both sides.
Everybody hated insta lock dps onetricks anyway.
5 games in a row with 4 dps that didn’t care at all was much more miserable

Agree 100%, having played daily since season 1, not really playing now. They won’t listen though because a few sycophants tell them it’s wonderful.

Communism? The game is owned by Blizzard, if the servers go down forever you get nothing, I’d call that a dictatorship lol

Supply and demand - it’s quite literally Capitalism at work. Roles that are more in demand require a higher cost (waiting time).
But I guess everyone who throws the word “communism” around as if it’s the ultimate evil already shows themself to be utterly ignorant and missinformed.

Its tyranny actually. Blizzard slowly takes away all of our freedoms and forces us to play their way. We cant go sideways, we cant get the information we need, we lose more and more after each year.
And we all agreed to it, so what’s to point in crying ? : D
Don’t put everyone under the same submissive umbrella please.
Well u did agree to it when u installed to game… Not blizzards fault if you didn’t read contract ^^

Communism is a system with ultimate government control. Everything regulated. Instead of letting people produce and sell stuff or play the game how they want, the state will dictate what you should produce and how you’ll play the game! Which is what Blizzard did.
Was there a contractual obligation which stated that every time you buy an EA game you also agree with the P2W lootbox economy they promoted? If so then why so many people raised up against that and forced a change, after all buy purchasing a game you agree with everything the company does with it.
Because most ppl are stupid and they dont read what they agree?
So if Blizzard suddenly decide to add a slavery clause to their contract which makes people who sign it their property thats completely fine because they were too stupid to read it? I mean nothing could possibly change?

the problem of people not reading agreements is one that is being ignored by the people writing them because it works for them…
what is needed is legal building blocks people can easily understand that can be represented symbolically so you can essentially have a summary that a bit like an emoji message posted on a phone… because that realistically what people can pay attentiion too…
Creative commons is the ideal example of this.
as for paid lootboxes they should have in principle been illegal from the start…
Personally i think laws should be written retroactively and criminal charges should be pressed!
If yous business model prays on children g ambling then you and anyone else in charge deserve to face jail time for it…
it’s that simple.
there is good reason to suggest this does lasting harm!
Activision, EA and company have beatifically behaved like the tobacco companies… they clearly knew the harm they where causing they should have taken a step back and reassessed their actions and done something to prevent it…
I hope they get the book thrown at them so hard their ribs break.
these are the actions of cold calculating psychopathic criminals!

Just restore it right. Jeff is an idiot.
I don’t see how this has “removed” choice at all. Before, whenever I wanted to play DPS in a game, three people went ahead before me and picked them. When I, as a fourth person also picked DPS, the whole game turned into a sh*tstorm.
Now, when I want to play DPS, I just press the queue button with just DPS selected, wait for eight minutes, and then play a game where I’m allowed to play the role that I want. While it hasn’t fixed the mentality that every loss is because the DPS sucks, it has at least solved the initial banter where people just throw straight away.
