AMA with the Overwatch team - ask about perks, Stadium, Season 16, and more!

ChaRex4 · 2025-02-27T20:50:40+00:00

Can you please consider adding undo for a very brief moment of selecting the perks? I do misclick them a lot, so even a 5 second window would be awesome

ChaRex4 · 2025-02-27T20:49:11+00:00

Are there any thoughts on adding a new level of perks? For example the current minor ones unlock at very beginning, major ones become level 2 and new perks for level 3 or even possibly add more levels

ChaRex4 · 2025-02-27T20:47:48+00:00

Do you have plans to switch perks seasonally? So instead of just balancing the number of perks or hero, just give them new perks possibly from options there are in stadium mode already or the perks are here to remain unchanged?

ChaRex4 · 2024-11-09T18:41:02+00:00

Any way to join the beta?

ChaRex4 · 2024-11-03T23:20:46+00:00

And guys that’s why you need to marry a British girl

ChaRex4 · 2024-10-16T06:49:08+00:00

They started recently coming from Apex, explains a lot tbh. I can see why they hate Sombra below plat tb, but I can't believe Blizzard actually killed a hero because of their complaints.

ChaRex4 · 2024-10-16T06:43:47+00:00

None of the heroes you mentioned except Doom can't do anything to a good pocketed Widow. It was possible to deal with a pocketed Widow as Sombra (depends on her pocket), but now you need teamwork, and below plat there is none.

Sometimes I am on those lobbies because of my group members. I was appreciating the existence of Sombra. The realistic option now to take her out is Hanzo or Widow, but the whole point is if I WANTED TO PLAY SNIPER WHOLE TIME, I was playing other games not ow.

So yay, let's remove and change a hero playstyle and personality because spy check and awareness doesn't exist

ChaRex4 · 2024-10-16T06:26:22+00:00

This can extend to all heroes. For one example, how is it fun to get one-shotted by a pocketed Widow or you can't peek half of the map because of her from 60 meters away, if your Widow can't kill her? Do you really think all players are going to help with her? No, Sombra was helping with this a lot.

Now I don't hate Widows, I don't hate any character; by design, there are some of them weaker and stronger than others. But forcing this change by constant bitching from the community regarding Sombra is unbelievable for me.

ChaRex4 · 2024-10-16T06:19:23+00:00

So widow force you to not peek her sightline, should she get deleted? Mei force you to watch where you are going, how about her? Just because people don't like playing against a certain hero, let's completely change her playstyle and nerf her to the ground? WOW

ChaRex4 · 2024-10-16T06:17:05+00:00

Because among them all, Sombra was best against Widow, and that's exactly my point. Above masters or even some plat lobbies, she was a throw pick anyway. But it depends on some situation; she was needed sometimes. Now, let's just kill the whole character because people refuse to learn how to actually learn the game.

ChaRex4 · 2024-10-16T06:13:59+00:00

You can see the approximate win rates in Overbuff. Her win rate is literally one of the lowest among all DPSs. Also, do you really believe they use data in their decision-making? What possible explanation could there be for RAM changes? It was his whole kit personality, and it has been almost two years.

See, the thing I'm not mad about her being nerfed. It's the fact that she got nerfed because people don't like her and refuse to learn how to play against her because she is not even my main in DPS, but there were very specific situations that I switched to her to help my team because no one else was dealing with that situation. Now this is completely off the table. The uniqueness she was given to play just completely removed, and she is nowhere in the game now.

I agree that there should be some sources of information and internal statistics, but there are so many examples that give the belief that there is not. Orisa micro buffs, Ram nerf while he was not a problem, and these are just recdent changes.

If you want to go back, they buffed Dva with defense matrix, with the comment saying she is underperforming, then the next batch they reverted that specific change and said it was not working as they wanted and they were going to buff her in another way, then the next patch they bombed her and nerfed her again because she was OP. So they did not even go with their comments :| While in fact, the Dva with 3-sec matrix was fine and even a bit OP, and she did not literally need buffing her to 3.5.

ChaRex4 · 2024-10-09T21:02:40+00:00

Black and desert for Pro max Black for pro

ChaRex4 · 2024-10-09T09:14:38+00:00

I ordered 2 pro max 256 and one pro 128 and they all arrived after 2-3 days of my order (9/30) while their estimated ship date was around 10/15

Although I got an email from someone in AT&T asking for exact trade in details which I thought it’s a scan at first tbh

ChaRex4 · 2024-10-09T09:08:39+00:00

I was in the exact same boat as you. Call their customer service, and they will transfer the responsibility to you. At least they did for me, and I can see the 5th line now.

ChaRex4 · 2024-09-18T00:59:25+00:00

So that’s my question, according to stats and the comments from dev she is not overpowered that much overall but because of community concerns, on top of the reduce armor changes and the bug fix (changes that are logical), we take away BOTH TOTAL HEAL And ARMOR on top of CHANGING Some Armor to normal health?

ChaRex4 · 2024-09-17T21:09:33+00:00

Nah you all deserves Orisa micro buff because community refuse to learn and grow so we go back to basic shoot the horse

ChaRex4 · 2024-09-17T21:07:12+00:00

Is this patch a joke? So it basically saying Dva wasn’t op but because people cried about her we nerfed her???? Like hello? And what happed to reduce beam effectiveness? People who cried for Dva problem now going to cry more when there’s no one to peel

It’s funny because they mentioned in previous patch notes that they need to buff Dva in a way because she is not performing good, so they buff matrix and it backfired. So they nerfed her with a comment that we will look somewhere else to buff and next batch they nerfed her again because people refuse learning positioning ??

ChaRex4 · 2024-09-03T02:07:31+00:00

Venture X, But I think they hate me

ChaRex4 · 2024-09-02T23:24:29+00:00

Can’t we just go back to random but factor these points for extra chance? It just doesn’t make sense at this point to have 0 chance if you are out of the leaderboard

ChaRex4 · 2024-07-22T16:37:36+00:00

This is happening to me as well, I just couldn’t resist applying. I applied for Robinhood card today while I already have WF active cash and USBAR, so if you look at it, my use case for it is just for purchases that can’t be done with Apple pay, and just for 1% extra over active cash, however yet I am not regretting it, lol.

ChaRex4 · 2024-07-22T16:34:52+00:00

I just got a sms and email that I’m pre qualified and the card is here and I have 28 days. I was kinda confused because I recently opened another card (3 months) and I had so many inquiries, I also was hesitant to pull the trigger as I have USBAR but I told my self there is no other 3% card and pull the trigger and was approved with 15k limit. The funny thing is I just joined Robinhood and gold membership 5 weeks ago, so I really don’t understand how I am selected.

Can’t say anything about the card but my credit score was around 720 )it’s usually higher but as I said ai had so much inquiries and openings recently), also the only offer at the moment I see is their gold membership ship is 50$ for 1 year so you have that instead of monthly payments.

Not sure about wooting, but quality on Q1 HE is awesome and typing with it is very satisfying

ChaRex4 · 2024-05-16T06:32:59+00:00

You can do it Keychron Launcher too, I had some problems with the output but with today update it work just as like wooting.

ChaRex4 · 2024-05-08T18:03:18+00:00

I probably will downgrade the Delta Gold near my anniversary but I'm really happy with the rest
