      Me having a 4-hour leaver penalty because I disconnected multiple times and got back in the same quick play game.... doesn't do the deed in terms of letting me play the games more often and it's not even my fault I don't even want to leave the game. The only players that got fockddd by this new penalty is the ones with kinda wonky connection.

      Actually had a game once where the entire enemy team left after they lost the first fight. The only person who stayed was a Solider. This game ended up lasting the entire time length because people backfilled but would leave at some point. Eventually he got a team to stay but it was too late into the game for them to make any headway.
      When they said that some people leave 90% of their qp games I didn't have much of an issue with the penalties anymore.

      I have several issues with it. 1) based on what the exec producer said, qp is basically supposed to just be comp lite. 2) if qp is basically comp lite why play even have qp? 3) since the people who leave don’t see qp as serious if they want out they will just soft throw (I have done this). 4) ppl complain about sweats in qp and if is not intended for ppl to be sweaty well, the leaver penalty and what dev said in the interview are just going to enable/justify the sweats more.

Someone could leave in the first minute and no backfill for the rest of the 10+ minute game. It’s a little better in west coast so I think part of the discussion is muddled by people assuming backfill fixes the problem

    I feel like all those people saying that they don't get why Blizzard would punish leavers in QP don't really play QP all that often.
    Before they made that change it felt like roughly every 4th game I was backfilled into a game that had a leaver and almost without fail the game already was lost. I mean really lost. Not just we are at a disadvantage, but we don't have a single proper team fight left.
    Now that they changed that, I can go a lot longer without being backfilled. Yes, I get an occasional thrower now, who is just afk or goofing around at the end of the map, but the frequency of that doesn't compare. not even close.
    As I play mostly solo-flex-Q QP this change was a godsent.

      Being backfilled is MOST of my QP losses in OW2. Every 1 in 3-4 games used to be a backfilled, followed by a loss as I get dropped in with around 5-10 seconds left in the game. Not enough time to build a meaningful ult charge, or attempt to coordinate with the team. My W/R in QP has skyrocketed up since the new changes banning leavers. Im getting backfilled less, and Im able to enjoy longer, more meaningful games. QP should be the place to relax or prepare for Ranked. Leaving just negatively affects players in both angles.

    I genuinely love hearing Flats talk about The facts of Overwatch. He may not be correct 100% of the time, but he knows the game inside and out and can see through what needs to be done or what is actually happening. I really hope that people do start to listen to the real tank players and those of us who really love playing as tank, even though we can't. Because we experience everything that the enemy team has to offer, and get punished for trying to stop them. I miss the days where I could leave my team for 10 seconds to try and pull a couple of them off point and get a kill or two. Or when you could deal damage that would actually go through to the other team. But now, a tank isn't allowed to do any of that. If you want to make any sort of impact as a tank, you have to time your cooldowns perfectly and do it with at least 2 teammates. Because if you don't, a wet pool noodle could make a bigger impact than you.

The tank however is, more often than not, the primary focus of most of the enemy team. Especially in lower elos. I haven't played Hardcore Overwatch in a while. But when I do play, I love to play as a tank. It's been my favorite role almost from the beginning of my play time. And I know I'm not a GM player, I'm not sure if I'm even diamond. But I do know the game very well. I've been playing the game for a long time, and I've been watching from almost the beginning. And I would love it if the diminishing tank player base would finally be listened to more, even if it's just a little bit.

  • @zaitop7821
    @zaitop7821 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +187

    I think that a big part of tank issue that the community is missing is about power budget
    When the game moved to 5v5, tanks got significantly stronger, in stats (raw hp/armor or just damage numbers), mobility (orisa is not an anchor anymore, doom was new, rein can cancel charge...), this got to the point where tank hp pools had to be nerfed on non role queue modes, since ther characters by itself in a vacuum just have overwhelming numbers
    The problem with this is, on ow1, every player had like 1/6 of the team power budget in hands, not exactly like that but the agency was more distributed. Now the tank player has like 1/3 of the team power budget, meaning he has much more things to do, like tanking 24/7, killing enemies, doing cc, protecting allies, getting space and other things.
    Having to do all that in EVERY GAME is stressfull, if you have to be the main character in some games and a secondary characther in others is normal for the other roles, but tank has to give his maximum every game for his team to even get a chance to play the game.
    This is also a part of the counterswaping problem, if the tank player had less of the team budget, countering him would not be so impactful thus not so mandatory
    This is more of a pvp shooter design issue overall, since tanks and supports really cant only tank/heal to be meaningful on the match, so they also have to do DPS job after all so the player feels like he got agency in the game

      @skarloeythomas5172 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      Not entirely true though. You don’t need to play maximally when your damage ACTUALLY DO THEIR JOB. The game is easier on everyone when damage create pressure for the tank to claim space.
      But all those games of tank feeling like you need to carry through the nose is because your damage are chipping at the enemy tank, using the same angle and space you already occupy, and expecting you to claim space from nothing.
      What compounds this are supports that fail to prioritise healing where it is needed or tunnel vision. You watch the replay thinking ‘WTF is he doing?’ seeing a Moira sucking an enemy as her allies die in her periphery, a Mercy doing aerial tricks while damage boosting ignoring the critical HP tank.

      Sometimes you have an off game and it’s matters a lot less on the other 2 roles because well you have a partner in that role who can pick up you slack, but with tank if you have an off game it’s just a loss. Also with tanks because of the lack of a partner it’s much closer to a Rock Paper Scissors game with counter swap because there’s only one variable and it just makes the role so much less fun because it can devolve into that if both tanks are equal in skill.

    I've been a "quickplay - only" player for over 4 years and I can assure you that leavers go either after the first lost teamfight (not after the first point is lost, the first teamfight) or 5 seconds before the game is over. Apparently those are the kind of people that refuse to play unless their team carries them, and they just care too much about their QP winrate to take a L and move on with their lives.

      Its common in lower ranks for both supports to just healbot their respective tanks and for the tank and dps to focus the other tank. The team whose tank dies first loses the fight. That can make it feel like its the supports fault but its not really.
      I think its also a bit of the big stats = did well mindset a lot of people have. Especially as a tank there is a lot of stuff you can do that when your team doesnt take advantage of It feels like you are useless.

    The problem is that Blizzard insists on treating QP like Comp practice, and they're showing no signs of stopping. What we need is a mode that recaptures the casual chaos of older FPS games.
    Imagine a 10v10 mode. The mode exclusively uses Flashpoint and Clash maps, but there are always two points active at a time. The point or time limit is doubled. When the map ends, it loads straight into the next map with the same players. There is no penalty for leaving. When you queue, it places you into a match in progress. There are no role or character limits. If there are fewer than 5 players on each team, the map plays in Skirmish mode, not keeping score.
    It's just shameless, casual fun. Drop in, drop out.

    It was said in the recent interview with Jared on the group up podcast that the reason they're punishing leavers in quickplay is that they have the numbers and quickplay is the main way to play overwatch for the majority of players. To the devs ranked is seen as quickplay with extra stakes and incentive, not as the main and only mode players can take seriously. So with that in mind a team based game where one player leaving can screw over a whole match, allowing people to leave a majority of their games in the mode most people play hurts the experience of the regular playerbase. So it makes sense why they punish people who leave a majority of their matches in qp.

      And as someone who is regularly annoyed by being down a player for 10 plus minutes, I see it as necessary (the problem is even worse in Asia servers than west coast, I play on both). And the thing is, leaving and trying to join a new game when you’re down a player is not something you can really do because you’ll just have the same problem the next game. It’s not that I take qp as seriously as ranked, it’s just literally unplayable when you’re dealing with an epidemic of leavers. I want to play the game. Leavers make that impossible

I left the game to see if it would fix it, but then got a 15 minute ban for my 1st leave. Immediately just left the game and now I don't even wanna touch it. As much as it sucks to be back loaded into a losing game, there's ways to fix it without severely punishing the plays that want a casual game mode. Have players join at the same time and make the afk timer better. Push leaving players into a longer queue for the next game or just make it where you can't que till the game you left is over.

Yes, the basic GA is reverted back to what it was, but the real bad thing is how you’re considered to still be in a GA when using tech, and cancelling early, such as a small extra bunny hop to reposition, effectively still giving you the S3 cooldown, and in reality, 2 different cooldowns. So that’s another that goes to the list of Mercy changes that Flats is wrong about, as it’s about as far away from a net buff as you can get.

Tanks get hard focused on CC so other than universal nerfs, making tanks resist CC is really the best way to keep tanks as tanks instead of doormats.

    • @snizzle6174

      for every game's system there is too much power in movement where it removes the challenge from the game. For example, celeste with 4 dashes would be, overall, significantly less balanced a game and the entirety of the level design would need to be reworked around the increased mobility. I assume the intent is that mobility creep in overwatch is starting to eclipse the need to aim, the stability of the netcode, the map design, etc. I agree in that I love games with incredibly complex movement, but at a certain point it would require redesigning the rest of the game.

    • @astupidlylongnamethatstoolong
      @astupidlylongnamethatstoolong 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      The problem is how the mobility is given instead. Bap for example has a good mobility but not great for escapes unless there's a high ground no one can reach. Mauga has a good mobility tool for disengage but is relatively slow and he can't use it to traverse long distances without incurring some risk of being shot at.
      What are examples of movements that are not fine you might ask? : Kiriko, the ability to tp is strong. Super strong. A good sym can make use of her teleporter which is just a shittier tp amongst all the tp abilities if she uses it by herself and despite that, if used properly is still strong. Reaper TP is slow, makes him vulnerable, and is easy to spot and he requires los much like Sym. Now what does kiriko have? An easy to teleport button that doesn't require los, is almost instant, gives her invulnerability on tp and after shortly and can fucking go through walls. That shit isnt fine, and that shit goes as far as Reaper tp. And the only condition is what? Have 1 person in a 35m radius? As far as im concerned Kiriko should never have the ability to tp through walls. Or have that much distance to teleport. It should always be either have a wind up to teleport, have a los requirement to function (cant tp through walls), or reduced distance by 20m.
      Then what would make Moira's super fast instant wraith not OP as a movement? One might even think. Its that it is OP, fast movement on a short time with jump tech for additional distance and you're invulnerable with self cleanse. The only thing that would make it better would be it can phase through walls(that would be so annoying tho). But in the case of Moira, shes limited by her kit and design. Kiriko has the ability to almost 2 tap most of the cast, has suzu, has wall climb with her tp, she doesn't need all that, its why she's unfun to play against. Moira has fade, succ, piss, piss orb and succ orb. Thats it. Thats her entire kit. Its why I'd consider her mobility fine. Given a strong ability but 2 decent but not fight changing abilities.
      Ana is a better example of strong abilities as well, she gets 0 mobility skills since she has 2 fight changing abilities that rival ultimates in efficacy, so she'll get 0 mobility (yes im aware pumping both cc abilities into 1 tank ruins them.) Also, swiftstep is on 7s cd. Makes you think huh.

It's like suddenly tanks have decided having to play around disadvantages is too hard. Like yeah bastion melts winston, but bastion is a terrible DPS and will be getting bullied by your tracer/genji/sombra all game. Also waiting out a 12 second cooldown is not that hard.
      The only legitimate complaint for the tank role is that ball should get a small buff and the people who complain about too much responsibility in the tank role (which ironically is normally the same people who complain they don't have enough impact on their games).

    People also forget to talk about supports in OW1 didn't have a role passive, meaning if a support like Ana used her nade or sleep, she herself was defenseless and any damage you'd do to her would be effective pressure.
    In OW2 the support can just yeet their abilities with no care, and if they take damage they just gotta LOS for a few seconds and they're back to full hp passively. They don't even have to heal each other (aka pay attention) because they know their fellow support will heal themselves on their own so they can keep pumping their tank's ass full 24/7.

    idk why Flats is so against 6v6 coming back. Sure, they'll have to spend a lot of time to rebalance everything, but it will be SO WORTH IT. First of all, I have a lot of friends I play with all the time. We are all collectively sad that in our groups we make we can fit one less person. A common occurrence (say, 1-4 times a week) is we make a group of 5, then one more person comes online asking if we have a spot, and we have to tell them we're full. But if it were 6v6, we would fit that one friend, who ends up playing alone or just logging off until more people get on to make another group.
    Secondly, every problem in this game about tanks - balancing, not painful to play as/against, etc - would be solved with 6v6 returning. Having off tanks in this game be shoved into main tank role because there's only one tank now fcking sucks!!!! Ball was supposed to be a DISRUPTOR tank who flanked and cc'd people while a main tank stayed with the rest of the team! He can't do that now without leaving his team alone, and he SUCKS being frontline.

    4:29 - Midtown is just one of many, *_many_* maps that has a different opening tune when you're playing on it. Most of the Escort (payload), Assault (2CP) and Hybrid maps have it; maps that are symmetrical by design (like Control, Push and Flashpoint) just use one opening tune. Personally, my favorite of the lot is Hollywood's-the defense jingle has almost an Olympic-style buildup to it with a large horn section, while attack is actually a lot more mellow with a sort of twinkling synth finish. One with a far more subtle difference is Eichenwalde, with attack having a large orchestral crescendo, and defense having a string quartet movement.

    I think it's interesting how Flats is so adamantly opposed to 6v6 coming back when it would quite literally solve a majority of the problems we've had since Overwatch 2 released. They literally designed the majority of the hero roster with 6v6 in mind before suddenly dropping one of the Tanks for no excusable reason, but forgot that in order to make that even remotely feasible they'd have to rework the entire hero roster. Their reasoning was "it's easier to balance" but like we've seen how that's just straight up not true. The lack of the extra Tank is what directly led to gigabuffed Supports who were dying in droves on OW2 launch. It's what's led to the Tank role overall being not as fun as it used to be because they literally doubled the amount of focus the leftover Take player receives. It's why counterswapping has increased significantly because there only being one Tank makes it by far the easiest thing to counterswap against. It's why Ana nade and Kiriko cleanse dominate games. All of these issues would be fixed if we went back to 6v6.
    They overextended when they tried to fix the problem of shields from OW1 by removing a Tank. The meta would've been alright with them just removing most of the shields in the game, they didn't need to go overboard like this.

      Quite literally one singular mistake as Ram about two minutes into a Silver comp match that didn’t lead to us getting TK’d or any loss on the objective that wasn’t recovered has half the team jumping down my throat opening the door for one DPS in particular to spam “tank diff” over and over any chance he got. We weren’t even getting rolled, they were just legitimately a better coordinated team (not to mention they had better DPS’s, but given how our team was acting I don’t think that’s a surprise to most), and were able to win fights consistently. I remember straight up asking the guy in voice, “Why would this make me want to really try and play better for you? What results are you hoping to get here by being like this?” and was just met with those same eight letters in chat over and over and over again. I’m completely done with comp until the rework. Tanking was and still is the role I enjoy playing the most, but there is zero incentive to continue playing it or to attempt improving at it in any meaningful way, like in real, competitive game scenarios, when this is what you’re met with, regardless of your efforts, and regardless of if the person behaving this way is even doing *THEIR* part. This isn’t even coming from a defeatist “I can’t handle people being mean to me so I won’t play at all” position. It’s me going “why should I bother wasting my time like this?”

    So im gonna chine in on the quickplay leaver changes as an Overwatch 2 player who never played OW1. When you are new you HAVE to WIN 50 quickplay games to be allowed to play ranked. When i was doing this with my friends we couldnt wait to unlock ranked because you go on streaks where u have leavers on your teams multiple games in a row and you will lose when that happens. Its really frustrating for new players to try and unlock ranked when everyone just leaves their matches because their playing with new players. OW2 is catering more to their mewer players and thats a good thing, its a hard game to get into, its one of the most difficult fps games to be good at. So as a baby overwatcher the quickplay changes sort of needed to happen like it or not

    It's always fun playing tank against a arguably bad or worse tank player and doing better than them but still losing just because the enemy DPS played the counter game all match, and to add salt to the wound both teams always spam skill diff or tank diff. I don't play tank anymore unless my friends ask me too when we play together. It's getting beyond miserable

  • @maskedsausage9431
    @maskedsausage9431 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    6v6 is the answer to fix all of the tanking issues. It's just that the balance team has to rebalance everything again, because they were too incompetent to do it the first time. So we'd have to trust them to balance properly again, which is unlikely, especially considering they keep making the new hero be overpowered to help monetization, which in turn destroys the balance of the game... Again.
    Everything the Balance team does is contradictory to something else they are currently doing or have done. They won't pick a fucking lane and just go down it, they just keep swerving between lanes and will probably be stopped again once it reaches a fork in the road, like what happened in OW1.

    I perfer the ban system, as a player who mostly plays on qp in the current years, i think this was needed, the problem of leavers was it was getting out of hand so bad, maybe it wasn't noticeble to you because you aren't a qp player but for me, getting into a match and having a full team of randos just dissapear per round isn't something i call fun, it can get so bad taht the match ends during a midmatch as the matchmaker cannnot fill a missing team. I could queue back to rank but frankly speaking i simply don't have the time to spend on queue times, qp is short and chaotic but having to wait queue only for then they leave and you wait again isn't what i call a fun expierence.

  • @tobiasbayer4866
    @tobiasbayer4866 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Leavers are annoying to me because I exclusively play quickplay and while I dont think people should tryhard, they should try to win.
    I hate when people just leave after it looks like we are losing. What about trying to clutch up? Leaving only makes the game more one sided and basically confirms the loss on an otherwise maybe still winnable game.
    Sure, sometimes the person replacing the leaver will be better than them but at that point you are usually already to far behind.
    I dont know how it is for others, but I had a leaver in about 2 of 3 games that I lose and and maybe 1 in 5 times when someone starts leaving we win despite it.
    Its not really a fault with the game, its more a fault of the mindset of a lot of the people playing it. And I blame that mindset on comp being so bad. If sweaty people could just play comp instead of quickplay I dont think we would have this issue.

    What about limiting the amount of times you can swap? Like only 1 or 2 times per match. That'd give you either your first character and second character to choose from for the rest of the match, or your original, a second, and later on, if you so choose, a third. That'd give pro players ideas to theorycraft about what 1 counter or 2 counters they could draw from

    As a primarily QP player, the issue is many leavers drop after the first fight. It just wastes everyone's time, especially when OW2 seems to struggle to backfill now more than ever. If a team loses the first fight and a player decides to troll the rest of the game because "the game is lost", that's a player issue, not a system issue.

    As a tank your job is to get bullied by the enemy team so that they can't bully your team. The tanks that kinda struggle are the ones who aren't made to just get bullied or slow the bullying down. Ball Hog(kinda) doom and rein(depends on team comps) all struggle coz they are either offensive or don't have much to defend themselves.

    I think ow just need normal reputation system. 2-3 endorsements in the game end are cool but dont change anything. Players should have tools too tell system - this player is toxic, thrower, troll (leavers system can recognise by default) or something else, and system lower players "reputation". Lower reputation = longer queues. Dont want long queues - dont ruin other players games - easy. "But you can report players for toxicity or throwing" u can say - ofc, but that dont work at all. My duo was banned for "spamming thanks" for two weeks. They can disable her com wheel, that fair, but no, ban is easier. On the other hand i reported a lot of throwers and toxic players. Not "ezzdiff" stuff, but racial, homophobic, sexist slurs. I have game in comp (i repeat: comp, not even qp) where my tank sit in spawn and msg how he hate lgbt full game. Did i recieve any notifications they ban anyone? Nope, never. Players also should have tools to see why someone disliked them, when they go to "lowrep" queue to calm down and tools to prove system they didnt do something bad, cause obviously stack of trolls can gang players lowering their reputation.
    And yes - this will affect all players, and queues will be longer. But you really want play 10 qp games, 2 of them with leavers, 3 with ultratoxic, 1 with thower or 5 normal games with normal ppl who trying to have fun like you?
