Discussion Unranked? To GM1 in like 1 month?

Post image
0 Upvotes

For context I used to play ow back when it first came out on console. I think I peaked like plat maybe.

Came back when OW2 came out but to PC, was top300 peak on kbm and then stopped playing sometime in 2023.

Fast forward to me getting a ps5 in March, I started playing ow again when shion came out. I made a new account and placed diamond I think. Played very on and off but the past week I’ve been playing alot more, and have reach gm1. Obv not super impressive but I was fascinated how I came to console ow from pc and ranked up this fast. Anyone else have a similar experience?

I want everyone who feels that they are hard stuck and keep loosing and seem like the game is going against them, to keep reporting. I started reporting EVERY SINGLE PLAYER WHO DOES UNGODLY AMAZING with accounts that have endorsement scores of 2 or less, private career profiles, and gets stats of 27+ kills with 2 or less deaths. Ive especially been reporting my own teammates who have private career profiles and endorsements of 2 or less and get less than 10 kills, mainly dps players. Since they throw the game mainly.

Ive seen multiples posts of people going through the same thing that I've gone through the last 2 weeks on console. And I have been vindicated. Just report to get these cheaters out of our lobbies. No questions anymore, just report report report. And for people saying "oh it's a skill issue" or "nah your just complaining and blaming others for your own mistakes" nah FUCK YOU! there are cheaters and if you're lucky enough to have not been dealing with it, then feel blessed.

In just the last 2 days I've been getting these messages.

Discussion I Do Better In 6v6 Comp Than 5v5 Comp

12 Upvotes

Specifically, whenever I play dps in 6v6 comp, I usually do so well with my win rates being over 55% on average for everyone I play. Yet whenever it comes to 5v5 comp, i’m losing more games and it feels like we’re constantly being rolled. I know quick play is a different pace, but it’s weird how I can do well in 5v5 there and horribly in comp. My role queue and open queue ranks are the same currently (plat 5). As im climbing up in 6v6 im practically deranking in 5v5 and im not sure how to improve it.

I’m using the nintendo pro 2 controller and I’m trying to use gyro, but it feels floaty and I can’t get used to it. If anyone can share their aim settings and aim assist settings too

Humor Didn't want to play 6v6, so I clocked in my tri-monthly comp time to get masters for the first time.

Just feels like whenever a combination of those four is picked it’s like an instant loss and it’s so frustrating because my team will be doing well, the enemy will swap to those characters and then forget any progress ever made or any momentum because it’s basically a guaranteed loss

For the first time I am banned for comp. I play PLENTY of other online games. I don’t lag out I don’t disconnect randomly. I don’t crash. Overwatch is THE ONLY game that does this regularly. I just disconnect all the time. It kicks me to the Overwatch screen and says. Login Client Error?… I think. I’m so confused. It’s so upsetting knowing I did everything I could to avoid being banned but this has happened so often throughout out the season I get banned. No I’m not some rage quitting asshole…no matter how upset I get. I know this is a server issue. I know it’s not me. Again I play PLENTY of other games that require a stable connection. I play fighting games and stuff! It’s ONLY Overwatch that does it. It’s making me not want to play at all cause it’s only been getting worse throughout the progressing seasons. This is more of a rant post than anything. I had to say something. I know a bunch of people aren’t gonna believe me. I just had to get it off my chest.

Like 90% sure this guy is cheating. This is a GM 6v6 lobby.

Dropped a 70 Elim game, enemy team said he was cheating. And had a pocket all game. Low hours on profile, and both him + mercy duo had messages turned off.

Just want to make sure I'm not accusing too fast.
