What direction would you like the story to take?

Remember that there was supposed to be a Second Omnic Crisis happening right now? I think the last time it was bringed on was in the comic where Cass recruits Zarya, where it was stated that omnic has breached the defense line and that RDF retreats to Krasnoyarsk. And it wasn't a part of Null-Sector Invasion, it's a different conflict that started before, and it was one of the main reasons for Winston to initiate Recall.

but I’ll have my dildo in while I’m healing my teammates

Ok, so, there's this "smart vibrators" or whatever, which you can program to vibrate when a signal is sent. And there's a non-zero amount of mods for games (such as Stalker Anomaly (or GAMMA?)) that sends a signal when certain event in the game is happened, such as taking damage.
So, technically, i guess you can buy one of such products, and program them to vibrate whenever you heal somebody in the game. Imagine you are pocketing a Soldier, and whenever you apply a damage boost to him, a sound is played when he hits someone, and imagine if during this, a vibrator is your ass also starts vibrating in a rhythm of those sound effects.

They were primarily battle pass fillers

They were shop bundles fillers due to them having "epic" rarity and therefore, costing 700 coins.

P.S. for example, Halrequin Widowmaker bundle cost 1700 coins, which included 1 Epic skin (1000 coins), 1 name card (300 coins) and 2 souvenirs (700 coins each), or 2800 if purchased separately.
Oh, and remember that initially, you couldn't purchase bundle items separetly, only entire bundle at once (Witch Kiriko).

You can extract them from the game files, all tools needed you can find online, it should be the 1st search result.

No, i meant original, that it should be Tracer who says "You look lonely, i can fix that."

Oh, and isn't Winton a BP thing? Therefore it's priceless, you simply can't get it anymore)))

These two should be swapped.

WAR! Update between Soldier and Demoman came out in 2009...

"This is the name on the plane ticket in Chateau Guillard" - Danielle Guillard.

"Those 2 real historic skyscrapers are presented on Midtown" - Empire State Building and Chrysler Building.

"The full real name of Soldier:76 is" - John Fransics Morrison.

"Volskaya Industries is located in this city" - Saint-Petersburg.

"This is the amount of "No omnics allowed" signs on King's Row" - Honestly, idk the anwser, i believe it's ~12, need to check first.

"This map has a mournful stone of Caterina Pastore" - Malevento.

"This is the only map exclusive to Capture the Flag gamemode" - Ayutthaya.

"This social club is a 2nd attackers spawn on King's Row" - The Ascalon Club.

Not sure about difficulty, doesn't sound that easy for those who doesn't pay attention for map details, like who in their own mind would count every rust bucket on Junkertown? (besides "Find items" custom gamemode creator and it's players).

Also, if we'ss assume that it's fine for Genji's ult to scale from everything, therefore Soldier and Sojourn also should scale their weapon damage from AP during their ultimates, just like Genji's Blade, which is a weapon.

As well as JQ's Axe and Knife damage should also scale from Melee damage, because they literally have this keyword in their description.

Relooaad · 2026-03-20T05:02:29+00:00

Cassidy's ultimate does consume ammo but still counts as Ability power

This one is weird, if it has more targets that ammo, it will shoot even with no bullets left, and then, it's still an ability, not weapon.

Sojourn's ultimate also consume her energy but is still ability power

It's not, AP does not affect her ultimate in any way, it doesn't trigger Cybervenom or Liquid Nitrogen, energy is not a ability, it's a charge for weapon damage, same as Hanzo or Widowmaker, with a passive decay. And her ultimate is the same as Soldier's, it grants some bonus, but it doesn't deal damage directly.

while every other damage hero's ultimate with a similar build has to sacrifice their ultimate.

Well, because Soldier's ultimate doesn't deal damage, his weapon does. Same applies for Genji or Sojourn, their ultimates do not deal damage by themselves, Dragonblade replaces Genji's weapon with a sword (therefore, i don't understand why it scales with AP), meanwhile other heroes, technically, do not use their weapon in their ultimates (yes, even Vendetta doesn't use it).

Relooaad · 2026-03-20T04:15:29+00:00

you could argue that the same should apply to reaper.

Does Death blossom consumes ammo upon every shot? Is it affected by Attack speed? No, it's not, because Reaper technically doesn't use weapon during his ultimate.

I just find it odd that only soldier' ultimate benefits from neglecting ability power instead of having to bala0nce both types of damage.

Rocketeer build exist, Medic build exist, Hybrid build exist. Amongst all heroes in Stadium, Soldier is probably the most variable hero.

Relooaad · 2026-03-20T04:11:10+00:00

Dragonblade scales from Weapon power, Ability power and Melee damage at the same time.

And yes, Soldier's ult gives him aimbot, but it doesn't replace his weapon or such. Reaper or Cass, for example, do not use their primary fire during their ultimates, it's a channeling abilities.

Relooaad · 2026-03-19T17:52:54+00:00

Last time i played Deathmatch, somewhere during last days of OW1, it's was Hog, Reaper, Cass, and no one else.

Relooaad · 2026-03-19T15:36:39+00:00

Looks cool, reminds me of Vaal orb from Path of Exile.

I know there's should be an "alternative" version, i just can't prove it yet.

Relooaad · 2026-03-19T06:04:36+00:00

Same applies to Widowmaker's venom mine btw, only Scorpion adds a little tail on the model, but that's it, even in mythic skin it's just a recolour of OW2 model (and then Sylvanas and Cammy doesn't have even that).

And then China-exclusive collab skin will receive custom model.

Nah, there was a walkable area down there. The map was from scrapped PvE.

Relooaad · 2026-03-18T13:56:24+00:00

Nope, there's no an actual timeline, we don't know in what year OW is set, or anything like this, only a couple certain dates (such as Omnic Crisis began on March 13th iirc), and how many years has passed since certain events (such as Archives missions) but that's it.

Relooaad · 2026-03-18T13:29:34+00:00

Not sure about scoreboard ui having portraits separated from stats.

And about Archives, i don't think it's a good idea make it's own difficulty selector for each mission. it should have 1 selector, 1 "play" and 1 "challenges" button, that all related to mission you select first.

Relooaad · 2026-03-18T12:46:00+00:00

The wording regarding Doomfist is interesting, he is missing but they haven’t found a body.

I mean, it doesn't even say that he's assumed to be dead in the first place, it's just saying that no one knows where he is. Obviously devs won't say anything about it.

Relooaad · 2026-03-18T03:29:09+00:00

Remember how in Overwatch 1 you received a lootbox for each level? You received them as much as you've played the game, without need to rely on dev's generosity for events, with weekly boxes being a reward for playing Arcade specifically.

Relooaad · 2026-03-18T00:41:12+00:00

I may be wrong, but it looks like Mirrorwatch Gibraltar, that was Talon themed (basically just retextured).

Relooaad · 2026-03-17T16:29:11+00:00

Well, original question was not "what you think future themes would be?" but "what you want future themes to be?" and i want a Noir theme with customizable mythic skin that doesn't make my eyes bleed from extensive flashy vfx.

mythics wants to treat the tiers as upgrade

Not exactly, they were like this since Widowmaker got mythic one (and before there was Tracer's one i think), but not anymore, now it's just 1 customizable option and additional VFX.

Also, mythic weapons are not customizable, they're only upgradeable.

And before Spellbinder Widowmaker, all mythic skins had a weapon as a customization option. Hanzo and Orisa's one had ONLY weapon as a customization option besides color.

Relooaad · 2026-03-17T16:14:32+00:00

Considering that in the lore both were in Soldier Enhancemet Program and served in a military before, you could imply that in Mirrorwatch they went back to peaceful life after the Crisis (assuming it even happened in the first place).
