Fix Overwatch thread

So as you probably haven't noticed, I have not been posting on on here a lot. This was mainly due to me burning out from overwatch and just taking a long break. One of the things that contributed to this was how broken I thought Overwatch was. So in this thread, I want u guys to post what you think could be changed in Overwatch and how you would fix it. Here are a few things I think could be fixed.

• Support tankiness- this one only goes towards Moira and Brigette, but I think they are a bit too tanky. I hate how me and my team go to focus on the other team's healers and when they are low, they just give themselves armour/healing orb and there back to full health. It just sucks. Brigette too can just act like a huge tank at times too. She's listed as a healer but doesn't really do any healing, shes like the new sym. She can pretty much do frontline tanking like a Rein but is much smaller and a hell of a lot more agile. I don't really have any suggestions for fixes, so leave them down below.
• Cheese strats- Unfortunately, through my hundreds of hours of playing Overwatch, I'm still in Silver. Part of that (besides me sucking) is that there are so many cheese strats that no one tries to counter that I always lose. One of those strats is always playing Bastion. He is very strong when it comes to one vs one's, so if any one knows my pain in the lower ranks, they will know everyone just scatters in with not an ounce of communication. It's just super frustrating that I'm trying my hardest to win the game and coordinate and no one listens. Heroes like torb and sym have the same affect too.
  Lack of team coordination- this kinda goes with the second one, but in the lower ranks, and I'm guessing this happens in the higher ranks, there is not a lot of team coordination. Everyone just does there own thing and its just one huge mess. Overwatch is a team game, meaning u have to act as a team, and that can be nonexistent at times. It makes ranking up in solo q really hard.

If you have any other problems you have with Overwatch, please leave them below

you can't change overwatch to fix comp q, they should focus on broken abilities, like everything that revolves around rein is actually bugged (charge and shutter), hogs hook is also pretty bad.
everything else is probably not feasible, nerfing cheese strats is going to make actual competitive boring to watch.

The problem I have with OW are the same I have with any online game, mainly the community, but again is more me than the community itself.

I'm 40 and being the manager of an office get enough drama every day to come back home and have enough patience to deal with trolls, dramaqueens, or "being forced" to team up with friends to avoid it (my RL friends either don't play games or have families).

I understand how you feel, and the solution I found is to take breaks, even prolonged ones from the game (not only competitive matches).

As of recently, Overwatch is a game where in order for someone to have fun, it requires their enemy to not have fun. You're having fun with your cool Brigitte combos? Great, but the enemy is having a shitty time being permastunned and knocked back to spawn. You're having fun with the invisibility, teleportation and hack from Sombra? Fantastic, but the enemy probably doesn't want to play hide and seek while their abilities are unavailable. You're having fun with Hammond just rolling around a pole with 2000 HP, or with the new Symmetra wall with 5000 HP, or 1v1ing a DPS as Moira? Awesome, but you know, the enemy doesn't have fun having to cut through all that HP and lifesteal.

This is why I left Overwatch, tbh. It's not that I hate the game itself or that I'm fed up with it, it's because every. single. change Blizzard makes contributes to ruining the fun of those who have to confront those changes.

That, and also the fact that Blizzard hates when people find cool stuff with their engine and remove it instead of making it a feature just like almost every other FPS (:

Remove Brigitte, remove Junkrat. remove Moira, remove Reaper and revert Sombra changes there you go overwatch is now fixed

Overwatch was at its most fun when Lucio was still the strongest hero in the game and none of the meta heroes had stuns (Ana sleep dart is an exception, but that ability is fine because it has a high skill ceiling to use).

As for gameplay changes I think it has become a bit TOO much of a rock paper scissors game. If you play dps its like you HAVE to flex instantly when the enemy changes. Supports are becoming part of this too. Its so bad Ive had games where an enemy dps and I are just holding tab switching back and forth in spawn while our teams fight. Because the difference in being one second late to the fight with the right hero is that big.

Also the hitscan range buff could be toned down a bit for soldier and mcree. Not sure people realize it yet but it makes a big difference not only vs pharah but all heroes.

As a fix for pharah mercy I feel like it was kindof penciled in. Its devistating vs solo longrange pharahs but still mcree and soldier are less than ideal vs pharmercy by themselves. If they want to fix pharmercy they are going to have to spend some time comming up with something better.

And it really speaks to what is causing the whole rock paper scisors problem. The release heroes to fix issues. This has always been the policy. To balance one hero ths just buff others to work against them or add a new hero that crushes them with no skill. To some extent they need to tone the whole thing back and just let skill be skill.

If you're in Silver it's because you fundamentally don't understand how to play the game not because Moira is too tanky
