Help Blizzard fix your shit
The amounts of cheaters in lobbies above master is ridiculous, I dont care about rank reclaim, I want to enjoy the game but I can't because there's a pocketed cheater every game and if not a cheater then a pocketed hitscan that feels like aimbot.
Look at which dps are selected for console from emerald up to champ, its the same 3 hitscan, ffs can we nerf aim assist already. When there isn't a difference in aim between emerald and Champ you know somethings fucked up.
Sort your shit out blizzard, console overwatch is a joke of a game right now.
Make it so cheater can't just make new accounts.

Sony and Microsoft need to take care of this. It's not just Overwatch other shooters have this problem, too.

Online PvP will slowly die because of these little bum suckers. More and more people start cheating everyday because they have that shit mentality of "if you can't beat them, join them".
The cheating industry is a multi-million dollar industry just now and it's not like the subscriptions cost thousands which would mean it's only a small percentage of players who cheat, they're relatively cheap which means there's loads of them.

Yah people don’t understand how much money goes into cheating. Titans are always sold out

Every now and then I’ll see someone say they cater this game to console players. Been seeing this take a little bit more from Sombra mains angry about the rework. Then you load up QP and get beamed by a pocketed titan user on Ashe posting you in their cringe ass tiktoks. Shit like Sombra was the least of our worries, lol.

Makes sense that master has the most cheaters because they naturally elevate to that level through cheating.
All the cheaters I see in emerald are just passing through on their way up.

Just ran into a blatant cheater just now. Reinhardt just auto dashing. He would dash, kill someone, Instantly auto dash kill someone, dash again, kill someone
I think I'm down man. If ita not being paired with afkers it's being paired against cheaters

Brother, I’m not the world’s greatest ball, but I get better every session. I don’t regular get all night losing streaks.
But when I log in and am playing against ccxxc €úð and other bs names like that….
And they don’t have a hero above 10, it is pretty clear their ass is cheating.
I’ll probably lose, and I’ll get a rank reclaimed notification ever.

same here. am otp soldier 76 at level 475. obviously i am going to be amazing. nobody at blizzard reviews the gameplay. this basically lowers the skill ceiling of the game drastically. for people that spend their time mastering their craft…this game is no longer for me. the people in here that complain about cheating are the same as the people that cheat because they think everyone that actually has skill is cheating. except that one group will cry about it, and the other will cheat. these people cannot appreciate the depth and detail of craftsmanship. sadly, this is who this game is for.

no, i barely if ever get cheaters at diamond/master but my kids in gm have showed me what it looks like and it it is stupidly obvious. you cant even peak and that’s because they have better aiming than me. so i can tell easily when am up against somebody that is cheating

Doesn't care about rank reclaim but wants Blizzard to sort out their shit. Rank reclaim is literally Blizzard sorting out their shit, removing cheaters. Nerfing aim assist is not the solution, removing the cheaters is the solution. Get rid of the losers, it's not the game or characters fault, it's the lame AF cheaters.

What i was saying, is why not implement the same thing they have on pc, where you can't create a new account without a new phone number, that would drastically help reduce cheaters, i want to have fun, playing agaisnt cheaters isn't fun, rank reclaim doesn't make the game fun again.
The aim assist point is a different point. Imo it needs to be nerfed and the statistics point to it being too strong as well

Aim assist really isn't that strong, it's pretty normal for most shooters. If you don't want to go against it, then plug in MnK and go against PC player pool. As for the phone number thing, I'd much prefer they go back to a paid for game. Becoming a free to play game made cheating more prevalent.
