WHY IS QUICKPLAY SO SWEATY THESE DAYS IN OVERWATCH 2? 

Lmao

why does qp seem harder than actual comp?

​@@Nine-TailedGaming people trying to improve themselves harder than last time.

Real shit right there. Ive been trying to practice hitscan cause I am dog shit at it but fuck me if I touch Widow. I could be 6 and 8 and 3 of them will hard counter me like I am any kind of threat with me 30% scoped accuracy lol. Just got out of a game before this where at 2 and 1 I see a swap to Winston, Genji and Sombra like... Did I kill one of your parents? Did I date one of your mothers? I have 2 kills and like 27% accuracy wtf?

I fr just try to roll around on ball in QP, but 2 minutes in there’s a hog, sombra, Ana and Zen

Literally lol . Getting all hero’s golden weapons is the only reason I play comp

I pretty much only do comp to get those

I’m getting close to dooms gold fist at 1900 comp points

preach

@@theshadow5200 I'm getting close to my kiriko gold knives. I'm at like 2700

The stories they will tell their grandchildren for ages

I was in a qp match on gibraltar and emongg and flats joined but we still won. It was funny because one of the guys on our team was a top 500 widow and i'm a masters zen so we went on flanks and kept spawn killing people and were having fun but on emonggs stream he was sarcastically saying "yup, this is a lot of fun"

u mean blizzard

@@ZerixDaGod same thing

@@ZerixDaGod yeah activision blizzard

@@ZerixDaGod They are both bad

Facts

absolutely this is the reason quickplay has gotten so much worse. the challenges aren't supposed to be that hard to complete so I don't see why they don't just make them "complete games" instead of win. I guess it could lead to people throwing in qp because they only have to complete the game and not win but isn't that sort of the point of quickplay? people are supposed to be able to do whatever they want in qp. try new heroes, befriend the enemies or even just enjoy random character interactions. But by forcing you to need wins for the challenges it makes it so everyone actually needs to try and if someone on your team isn't trying then it can be really infuriating cause you just wat to finish your challenges.

Another part of it is the mental side of things. Some people are still stuck in the mind set that they need to win every game and they tunnel vision, including me. The people who aren't tryharding are usually the ones with the good mental and aren't phased by losses

I also feel like the queue system they did to comp is also affecting qp. I legit have not run into a single gold player on my team ever since.

It gets even worse with that stupid win 7 arcade like ,normally i just fuck off and with total mayhem having a meta now it gets really frustrating I just want to play and get my bp blizzard

@@charliewilliams7964 No that is not what QP is for - it's still a game to try to win, I'm sorry. Dancing with enemies and so on is nonsense. It's not a social game. It's a practice mode without rank.

Yes

People who sweat in QP and play shit like pocket sojourn are a literal pest. Are they afraid of dropping out of silver or why do they not play rank instead of making QP unfun by sweating their hairy ass off

The best is when you are playing against people who are just constantly counterswapping. They will start out with a cool comp at the start and then it just becomes more and more meta over time until they win lol

Not to mention these games have faster queues, and better balanced teams

I don't know man, sometimes the other team THINKS my team is being sweaty try-hards. Literally had games where I've full-stacked with my friends, we're chilling and laughing and not really even paying that much attention to the game itself, and someone in the enemy team gets mad because they died. Like we're talking things completely unrelated to OW and making fun of each other (meaning my friends are making fun of each other, not of the enemy team), and suddenly someone in the enemy team gets all toxic

This. Also: Bad, toxic players, will sometimes spark players who are just having fun to use mains and try just to teach them a lesson; no talking back needed.

I joined a match and someone on the other team was trash talking saying "Ana and I were the only good people on our team" and I replaced the ana and I just said "Could you leave so our team could have a better chance of winning" and he said "yeah I hate this game anyways" and left and then we were able to push the bot all the way to the end. I've never understood people who leave before the match is over

@@Jacknorrington For me at least, If I am getting diffed on either DPS or especially tank, I will leave mostly as a consideration for my teammates but always preceded with an "I am sorry guys, the enemy [insert role] are better with me and I cannot match them. I hope whoever takes my place can do better".

the game's queue ALSO tends to put people at the FINAL second of a team's loss, which is INSULT to injury with the queue bonus and "Backfill" bonus for the BP. I've had this push match in Season, either one or two, where LITERALLY we lose right away because the game canNOT backfill our TWO empty team slots fast enough. In that match, the team literally pushed the robot to our side already, and there is NOTHING we can do, simply because we're PERMANENTLY outnumbered and the game cannot queue new teammates fast enough to help us on time. (I don't do comp, but honestly I think QP rly IS either SUPER loaded goated and/or "diet comp" all around)

I've thought the same thing. Whenever my team is destroying the enemy team, and I see 2 or 3 of the enemy team leave, all I think is "Uh oh, I wonder who will join now..."

hog is fun to play but its not fun to play against him and since he was not really a hog main i can understand that

TBF, Well is like the one map where I'd say its ok to play Hog. Even then, only if you're going for well hooks nonstop. its a thin line

@@vaalnailo5789 I'd push back on that and say that Well is the one map where it's least fun to play against Hog specifically because of the nonstop well hooks. A well hook is a one shot at the end of the day (the only exceptions being against characters who have ways to escape the well, but you could make a similar case about his old one shot and abilities that protected people from it, so I'm not sure that's a good excuse), and the Hog typically takes on little to no risk in going for them. In fact, they're technically easier now with the Hog changes because he can be slightly further from the edge of the well. So if we accept the premise that Hog being unfun to play against is a problem, then Hog on Well is the most problematic version of him, I would argue.

that junker of yours...wtf...how u do dat der?

​@@ryanhill3072 there are so many ways to counter hog on well lol

I’ve felt that yeah

Also, given the state of comp right now, quick play is where everyone goes to let out their anger.

Yep, totally Thank you

yes!! and also, i think comp is very toxic (even in lower ranks) so i just prefer quickplay even if i am competitive and want to win lol

I can confirm, plus I don't want to deal with all the toxic tryhards getting mad at you for trying to have fun.

A common occurrence from my experience

That's pretty common too, a lot of people on the subreddit calls it "Stompwatch"

Bruh I low-key run comp because it's less sweaty like WHAT!

Happens a lot lol

frr, as a mercy main who usually plays qp bc comp is the exact same for me, sometimes my team does bad and gets no kills, and ik at that point im supposed to switch or leave, but im not good at other supports. used to play moira when i started, played a bit of ana but im bad at aiming, played a bit of lucio but i didnt learn his movement tech, etc i only have like 100hrs on overwatch, 20 is on mercy, 17 on kiriko and like 15 on sombra (my old main) unrelated note, i used to main sombra bc i found it fun to play her and i did pretty decent at her. i tried playing her again after i started to main supports, and idk why its suddenly so hard for me to use her, i completely forgot how LMAO

I agree

Agree.. tried to just have fun in qp and they always play double hitscan mercy pocket with ramattra and kiriko or something like that. very fun!👍

@@juto8809 As someone who mains doom, I get especially annoyed when the sweaty unkillable horse appears and makes me hate myself slightly more 👍

yeah its annoying esp when trying to learn a new hero but you are getting destroyed so you have to play your main 😂

@@juto8809 what does that have to do with being sweaty?

When have you ever had a 12 min que for quickplay

​@@crossdaboss8914 I consistently have 12-16 minute queues with a 3 stack

Quick plays should be more fun competitive it’s where you really try to test yourself. It should not be the other way around.

@Moore 97 I keep hearing about these ques and I almost never have ques this long and I play in basally every stack amount

@@crossdaboss8914 every time I queue with friends the queue is 10-12 mins. Alone the queue time is normal.

Damn now I want to play torb and hammer people.

IKR i got called a virgin because i was one clipping an ana that stood still while scoped and never even turned around to fight me

Honestly tho When I backfill and the enemy is spawn camping I'll will pull out the dirty shit

Spawn camping is also sweaty gameplay though... in qp

1st game he GOT sweated on, 2nd game HE did the sweating.

The 1st game brought his heart rate up and that was just the benchline from there

Hate to ruin the fun but the developers said there's ZERO mmr balancing when you backfill in QP. So we are backfilling into these wood-tier literal first game of overwatch quickplay games. And I couldn't care less but apparently it's so steamrolly and such a big deal felt they had to address it in a post. Don't take my word for it go read about it. Hell I hope they don't change it 😂

me on Winton: win the first fight -> enemy tank take an hard counter like hog or JQ yet somehow we win the second fight -> enemy dps and healer take reaper and zen. i literally get to play winston 4 minutes max before having to switch

@@alessiofe I understand your pain comrade just a couple hours ago I was playing with some friends helping them do their weeklies and on one match my friend on tank who likes Ball and is trying to get better with the character is playing fine but the moment the enemy saw wrecking ball the enemy widow died switched to bastion, the other dps switched to Sombra and the support went Zen on a QP match they hard counter my friend who then almost uninstalled the game because of the pain of not getting to play a character he wanted to learn

Actively counter picking = trying to win most. I hate to say it but its not two separate things. If you really do wanna win then you should be counter picking

@@Th3GoatMan that's obvious but it doesn't become a challenge you can overcome with skill, it's a total shutdown. It didn't used to be this way with 6v6.

@@alessiofe yeah absolutely. challenges are making people wanna win more in non competitive game modes more but im just saying that you cant say "i understand wanting to win, but counter picking?" when thats basically saying, "i understand wanting to win, but wanting to win? unacceptable" lol

In other words something like what rainbow six does

Bro, That is just quickplay role quieing though? I play like that in quickplay role quieing. I am one of those sweaty bois in QP because I am scared losing imaginary ranking points in comp lmao

​@@ignatiusraditya1839 qp but with comp scoring instead of the half games that it is rn

@@TapiKoks yeah getting those 30 minute 5 to 6 matches are not fun and what’s even better is that you can get placed against that exact same team for the next match and you can’t leave

They had something like this at the Beta of Ow2

Yeah, little things like that happen alot in QP.

I don't think he was dead even without it - with tank knockback resistance, he wasn't going all that far. His positioning was most likely already calculating potential Lucio boop into the equation

Orisa was the third Imposter.

Learn new characters in comp, testing them in QP doesn't matter as it's a different game. That being said, as someone who only ever plays quickplay anymore because i can't be bothered to play long matches, I can understand the people being annoyed at someone who is not playing to win/not doing their part. Not saying you shouldn't play whatever you want in any game mode, just saying I know where they are coming from.

You know you can practice against A.I right?

@@ASTROPLANET13 you may as well practise in the shooting range if you think you can learn a character against ai 😂

@Nina You haven't played this game if you dont know alot of low skilled players use QP to learn the basic kits of characters. They get their ass served well done. They can at least learn when and how to use their abilities against A.I that offer resistance. Also the A.I have shit flanking skill but almost all have literal aimbot aim on the hardest difficulty.

@@thoraxebe1754 I’ve tried and I’ve been insulted for that too since plenty of people take comp just as serious 😭 I get it can be frustrating but it’s not like I’m not trying Y’know? Nobody improves by just sticking to what they are good at

Learn how to use comma dude. Trying to understand your comment is a headache

@@kongman536 ur right it's a massive run on sentence , but you're also weird for caring about grammar on the internet. why do ppl like you genuinly truly care about spelling and punctuation it's so fkn corny😂😂😂

Summary: - When the game came out, many new players came to try it out. - Overtime, new players are leaving for other games. - Dedicated players (who stays) dominated quick play for their daily and weekly quest (it became a tryhard mess we have today).

@@kongman536 I swear people on the internet have like close to zero reading comprehension if you know where to put the commas then you should be able to understand the sentence the same without them no? All i truly know is that it was very easy for me to read, but I'm also a genius so I guess you take that with a grain of salt.

@Ramenēmu _ yeah, my dude, I think you need a period between "comprehension" and "if. " :)

This isn't my experience. I play with many new players so my MMR has gone to shit, and so most of my QP matches are plat/dia players and I'm just rolling

fat finger airborn?

FFA it's a stealing kills competition, so frustating.

I've honestly been playing vs AI way more now. You can get exp for the BP in AI so I can just chill in there.

@@thatspella true actually. Its literally point of this gamemode so its unfun if you don't good at stealing kills

why is this so relatable? It's *always* the person with the worst stats talking the most shit.

I'd be honored and try to learn as hard as I could! XD While getting wrekt.

These Sombreros on ball fondling duty 24/7

Theres cross plataform in comp too. I play it with my cousin.

@@mustachinhogrosso3535 not if u play with PC and console players

Brooooo toxic ow = best ow😂😂😂😂

i have actually had less toxic people on comp than in qp for some reason 😂

It always remarkable to me people have this idea QP is for just screwing around…

@@fractalelf7760 why shouldn’t it be. It’s a miserable experience always trying to play meta and be sweaty in a non competitive mode

@@fractalelf7760 because it kinda is if you want a challenge and to try hard theres competitive if you want to just chill and be casual you have playing quickplay

@@shortfuse9443 Because what's the point of a competitive game?

@@pikawin2946 The problem is its a game about teamwork and winning and losing. If you want to "chill", go mine in World of Warcraft. Too many people drawn to the lore use OW QP (and to a lesser degree Comp) as RP experiences, this is not what the game _is_. So yeah players who care about the actual game get frustrated at these people who really ought to be fooling around in say FF or WoW.

I've noticed an increase in sweat while playing MH. It use to be so casual, not anymore.

@@SBXDesign mystery heroes uses your mmr now since it’s not in arcade

When people get angry and call you “nerd” for saying group up you know F2P fundamentally took OW downmarket.

@@fractalelf7760 like bro I’m trying to win. I understand you want to play different heroes but you’re doing the same thing and dying everytime like winning should be the GOAL

Same
