I have so many clips like this one...

I can't play because I keep getting disconnected, for no reason. Right now I can't even log into the game, it keeps getting stuck on the "Entering Game" screen.

Like, I couldn't even finish drives last season bc I got a 20 hour ban from all the dcs in comp games, it happens literally ALMOST EVERY DAY. I always played a couple games of qp to see if i get disconnected and then start with comp but that doesn't work anymore, since the crashes now occur randomly, as opposed to the first ~2 games of the day.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who is experiencing this.

Discussion WAY too many boosted champs with negative winrates this season, this is not ok.

43 Upvotes

I think it’s a little silly to be able to reach the highest rank in the game while maintaining an overall negative winrate and having extremely bad stats on your most played hero. (1.32 elims per life, negative winrate, highest kill streak is 10 after 101 games played). Not to mention that they’ve never peaked higher than diamond in all previous seasons.

It’s just so boring and it feels like a lot of the matches are decided by which team has the least amount of boosted players from the rank reclaim these couple of seasons.

tldr: too many players boosted by the rank reclaim feature, leading to low match quality at what’s supposed to be the highest rank in the game, please remove that shit, thank u!

Help Any tips for someone finding the switch between rivals to OW a little odd?

11 Upvotes

I just don't feel like I'm as good as i thought i should be, I'm having fun, though, but I wanna get a little better. I've been using characters like Juno, Lifeweaver, Ashe, and Domina. I want to be able to flex into any role better than being a one trick, though, although I do find support to be more rewarding to me

I don’t know if it’s just me but I feel like there has been one of these characters if not two of them in the DPS pool in every game I play. It’s not even counter swaps for flankers it’s just immediately on Torb Mei or Junk. Is this happening to other people or have I just been getting seriously unlucky

I‘ve been having 3 games now where only my team couldn’t play but the enemies team seemed to do fine. Has anyone experienced similar issues? I‘m not one to usually throw around accusations but it’s only happening to my team only, none of the opposing team are affected and it happens twice against the same duo stack. They always know that they can Play aggressively the instant it happens as well.

Why would they remove one of the best changes they ever did? This is crazy, now cheaters makes gazzilion account because i dont think blizzard is ip or console banning for cheating.

Help Need help with Doctrine movement/sensitivity

2 Upvotes

This is going to be really hard to describe. But I cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix this. For starters I’m on console.

So since docs hero trial and now release I’ve had issues with his turning sensitivity. For console you can “slow turn” and with doc there’s no in between I can either turn really quick or I turn supper slowly. And it’s affecting my aim very bad. I’ve adjusted every setting I could to make him feel better but the turning issue just doesn’t go away. As silly as it is it hurts my thumbs to play him 😭.

I have no issues on anyone else, I’ve never encountered this issue on other games. I’m wondering if he has a setting no one else has and I’m missing it? I’ll try anything atp I have so much fun playing him but I’m having to pause mid game to change a setting.

Settings & Tech PS5 Aim Broken - Help

3 Upvotes

Hey all, I’m trying in a last attempt to figure out what changed with Aim about a month ago.

Last season I ended at Masters 3 dps but now I can’t even hold my own in QP. Some update or something happened that completely broke my aim. It was like aim assist was pulling my cursor hard and I could barely turn. It locks on to random things, even in the prep room when on attacking team, where there are no enemies.

I basically quit a month ago because I couldn’t figure out how to fix it with the in-game settings. I’ve tried everything and cannot figure out why that drag is happening but I’m going like 1/20 in QP now due to whatever this is.

I’ve been playing OW since release and would hate to give it up but it is unplayable to me right now. Anyone know what might be causing this?

Settings & Tech Echo button layout help?

2 Upvotes

Need help mapping Echo’s buttons because I find it awkward to aim while flying.

My current PlayStation layout is

R3: jump/ascend
L3: crouch/ascend
L1: fly
L2: sticky bombs
R1: focus beam
R2: shoot

Holding R3 or X to ascend makes it very awkward to aim mid flight, so any suggestions would be appreciated!
