Who the fuck knows. Complete insanity.
Promised to keep updating their game and keep it alive, then dropped all support for the game after a year and announced that they'll make the same exact game from scratch and if you own Overwatch you can just play Overwatch 2.
Complete insanity. This is hundreds of millions of dollars flushed down the toilet for no returns.
They could have just kept updating the game. And now they'll have to keep updating the game as they are porting everything from Overwatch 2 to Overwatch. The doubled their work load moving forward.

>We really fucked up with OW1 so we want to relaunch but we really dont want to make OW2, just OW++

>soulless
>somehow even more soulless
impressive

right side soulless

>they are porting everything from Overwatch 2 to Overwatch.
Wait what

OW2 is a free upgrade to OW1 players so who cares?

I think just the new pvp shit. If you want the lame PvE mode for some reason that's paid

Every hero rework, every new hero, every skin is being ported to Overwatch. If you own Overwatch you will just play crossplay with Overwatch 2 players.
The only thing they will not port is PvE stuff.

Yeah the PVP is a free upgrade. The PVE/story is paid but who gives a shit it will likely be garbage and DOA. Overwatch revolves entirely around PVP.

>seething about inane shit
contain your fucking autism

didnt they anounce that the upgrade to OW2 was going to be free and the PVE was what was paid? its still stupid but if thats the case i dont really care its just dumb that theyve shown they can do PVE just fine with the anniversary missions and that this couldnt be anymore of a "executives meddling" thing

its a last-ditch effort to save the image of a game most sensible people stopped caring about ages ago. which fucking failed because the entire company went under and got bought out before they even fucking released it

>removing the increments making it slightly worse for no reason
does it actually matter? probably not
but hey im sure some mega autist out there knows that one shot gives him exactly 5% charge so needs to know he's at 95% exactly and i think its important to cater to that sort of dedicated tism

Thanks user

The PvE events in OW were okay, but they need a lot of improvement to market them as a full paid expansion. I personally want something like XCOM where you have to manage your team and deploy them to respond to events.

I just hope they make every character gay and/or a furry.

yes

>Overwatch revolves entirely around PVP
not entirely true pic related and other missions are surprisingly alive and you can find matches in no time even now, the difference is these come around once a year for people to play. so they have improve pve in a way that people would WANT to play year round and for money

They just literally update overwatch to overwatch 2, there is no crossplay or anything like that. But you gotta pay for the PvE

They're fun but they get repetitive extremely fast. Nobody is booting up OW to play the PVE content.

>mass replier gets it wrong
Perfect timing

The only reason people play it is because you get a free lootbox or whatever for doing it.
Which is what they're going to do in OW2 PvE, lock half of the content behind the PvE mode.

Make people pay for another Overwatch and reset their microtransactiopn purchases to 0.

those are some really bad changes
different for the sake of being different

They're making OW2 a free upgrade and all your skins transfer over

I already own OW1 so I don't need to pay for it, not really interested in the PvE so far, if it turns out to be nice I'll just get it on sale

Holy shit they really are dog gone retarded. There's no way this will sell enough to offset the time and money spent.

you literally dont get a lootbox for playing the current events (unless i already got one and wasnt paying attention)

repackage and drop everybody back to zero to make more money

I prefer the orange bar on the right for the meter but I don't like the extra little details around it, the whiter thin lines and dots, its all quite unnecessary clutter in a game with a lot of particles everywhere. All they need is the simple orange and black.

I prefer the original color for the icon too just because the white bg seems bright and annoying.

The last anniversary PvE missions were surprisingly fun actually. Made me a bit hopeful for the PvE part but I will definitely still wait and see how they are before even thinking of paying for the new ones on OW2

>More "minimalist" garbage
Graphic Design is dead

is it really?

They have no goal, and are trying to rebrand overwatch because they fucked up with the first one. They just expected the game to turn into a E-sport smash hit and coast off that for years, only for it to crash-and-burn as an E-sport as the flaws in the game became more apparent.
Gundam Overwatch unironically fixes those flaws simply by adding speed

Every 3 arcade mode wins gives you a lootbox

>go minimal with icons
>go full retard with graphical effects

Why did they go out of their way to make it look worse?

>there is no crossplay or anything like that
crossplay has been in the game for a while. you just dont hear about it because they cut off aim assist for controllers in it and competitive is still split between PC and console

Capitalism baby. Most people for whatever reason react better to minimalism and material design. Much better to repeat the dominant trend than to create new ones.

Yup. OW is becoming OW2, as in they're killing OW and transferring everyone to OW2. All your cosmetics transfer over, too.

only the PvP multiplayer, but who gives a fuck about PvE anyway

>what's their ultimate goal?

Doesn't this echo to some degree the PvE R6S game that ubi recently did, which somehow did even worse than predicted?

Only reason why ow2 is made is because ow it trademarked. Ow2 removes a lot of names who worked on the game and contracts that are under ow.

Ow2 is their "Take recontrol" of ow without the residue of BC blizzard

Either way esports are here to stay and blizzard just want to keep ow for themselves, oops I mean ow2. Oe doesn't exsist!

A patch they can sell for the price of a full game.

Guess I get to try out their guaranteed dumpsterfire of a singleplayer campaign when it comes out then uninstall it again after I guess

youtube.com/watch?v=DX_wprkggoE

No sorry I wasn't clear. You will be able to play the regular PVP for free. However the new PVE stuff is not a free upgrade, you need to buy that.

There's no porting it's literally the same game.
They just held back updates for a while so they can release bunch of them at the same time.
It's a marketing stunt.

welp
stays perma uninstalled then

>make a change for the sake of change
>ends up worse
This is honestly prime comedy, i pity anyone still caring about blizzard and their games

OW has a pretty good base to work on, if the manage to make it anything L4D esque with modding it's gonna be great, the free limited time PvE game modes for OW1 have been prettty nice too but they're just showcases more than actually working gamemodes and usually pretty short

They probably figure that enough people are into the story and characters that they'll buy what is probably just a 5 hour story campaign for $30.

lol

lol

Desperate attempt at a cash injection + increase the playerbase to salvage the esports division. It's gonna go the way of HotS soonish.

to burn more money on failed esports? you'd be correct!

>came back to OW after switching to apex when they killed the game because of china
>still pretty fun to play total mayhem, team deathmatch, and custom servers
honestly i didnt know how good it was tard wrangling 2 faggots throwing the game because one of them was being passive aggressive to the other.

>$30
It's a full price game. Game lists it for pre-order at £54.99 which is $70 USD.

game.co.uk/en/overwatch-2-2675198

you do know that PC and console OW launched at different prices right?

>Burn
they duped investors for half a billion at least and ran

OK here's the PS4 one :^)

I wonder what they'll do if someone bought the first Overwatch and they don't want Overwatch 2. Is that guy fucked over and is forced into OW2 or are they going to let him "play" but obviously he can't do anything because his game isn't supported?

I'd assume they'd just update everyone with OW to 2 and delist the first one from the store

Overwatch is becoming Overwatch 2. There's no "isn't being supported". The game will literally not exist anymore. They are transferring everything to OW2.

>furry
Blizzard still hasn't figured out how to pander to them. They made a race of werewolf people in WoW and fucked up the female design TWICE.

wow. Its uglier. Good job shitzard

If you own Overwatch 1, it's multiplayer becopmes Overwatch 2's multiplayer. It's just an excuse to massively rework the game which might not be so bad outside of weird things like there only being one tank now.

>and/or a furry.
A man of superb taste, I see.
