Fix QP matchmaking

Its literally worse state ever since 2016, Q TIMES ARE LIKE 5 seconds!!!

They removed all sense just to find games quicker.

QP is just ridiculous, balanced game NEVER happens, you either get spawn trapped or you can emote around and win.

"Its just qp" NO, even qp should be somewhat fun, its unplayable mode atm. Let me atleast leave the games, its truly madness

Overwatch console in nutshell

This is overwatch console now. Worst thing is that you can already guess how is the game gonna be from the start screen.

Let me go little bit into detail. Me, normal player, want to play quick play game of overwatch.

Me find this game, somehow under 1 minute.

Me, solo, facing 4 stack where there is smurfing and mandkaing hitscan pocketed lvl 5 ashe with 90% winrate in qp.

Please lets read once more. Me, solo, facing 4 stack where there is smurfing and mandkaing hitscan pocketed lvl 5 ashe with 90% winrate in qp.

These people are really waste of skin and there is SO MANY cases like this daily, its like pandemic on console. It really needs some revolution.

And make smurfs play like 300 games atleast for ranked, there is no good reason someone has to make 40 accounts. I have same account since 2016.

OW was always my favorite game ever but whats happening daily now can really cause some mental issue, this is messed up guys.

Can they fix the AAEI setting ???

Iam really sick of changing it for every single hero one by one anytime i want to adjust it..

its a bug since ow1 relaunch, the hitscan, projectile, meele does nothing, you need to manually change aaei for every single hero.. With aa window size its working ok.

This guy is same rank like me just because he played more games, most inflated season ever

Its the most inflated season ever, i really hate what ranked became. The t500 change was one of worst things blizzard ever implemented. You can be rank 1 GM5 if you played like 1200 games.

I saw champ 4 player with 48% winrate in his public profile, i dont even know how its possible, i guess insane amount of games and like 30 of them reclaimed because of cheaters.

I skipped ranked for many seasons, i used to be gm1 in all roles. And iam diamond now, slowly climbing back, but with 20-30 games per season with 60% winrate it takes forever.

It reminds me MR little bit, where i got eternity just by playing a lot lol.

TLDR - this post isnt about some elo hell nonsense or that i cant climb but I think ranked is messed up and T500 change was purely bussines step to abuse FOMO players, nothing else, it makes literally zero sense otherwise.

I hope you are all excited for double pocket Ashe smurf meta next season!

My hatred towards these pocketed smurf (sometimes even m-and-nking) Ashes in qp with 90% winrate and spamming tiktok videos named "best settings" where they dont even show settings, just how they admin the qp lobby is seriously reaching peak of mount everest level.

And now if i imagine they get + fire rate on top of that next season, oh my god, i hope iam wrong but it feels like biggest gaming nightmare materialized into reality..

Iam praying this nightmare isnt happening, may be last drop and iam playing since 2016.

Thank you Blizzard for QP matchmaking, day 4

I will keep spamming until they fix this nonsense.

Last thread - https://www.reddit.com/r/OWConsole/s/XzqDiLfkUp

Currently 17 losses and 3 wins in last 20 games.

Solo Q QP is unplayable this season because of loose matchmaking you just constantly face higher ranked stacks. I guess if like champ trio Q into QP they will quickly check if there is another similiar stack searching and if not then iam thrown as a rabbit to alligators. Or i dunno, its 100% not unlucky anymore, its a system, feature.

As i mentioned last time, i have 55% + winrate in all 4 ranked modes, you have some annoying games in comp too of course but it kinda works...

QP on the other hand is broken af, i dunno anymore, there is nothing else to do then stack aswell and find ow friends i guess but solo Q qp should also be playable...

What about choice?? Like you can choose fast Q time even with chance to just get abused or longer Q times for normal games.

Reminder: unwinnable games are real

30-9 14 vs 8-11 5k is just disgustingly insane. One of these games sometimes fills you with so much hatred for this game. The whole game felt like shooting range except 3v6 shooting range, i won literally every single 1v1 with their soldier we had and tried my best.

Yeah you will climb if you grind its not reason to get stuck but for someone who cant play much every game like this kills the mood for long.

Iam seriously offended that this guy has same rank like me just because i played 25 games and he played 100.

I really wish ranked could adjust your skill level much quicker. In my ten years of playing ow i always had by far highest ranks in seasons i played 100 games, its stupid af, i did not get better i just grinded more. Game should give you your true rank in like 50 games. Now it feels like you should grind like 300 games to truly see your real rank.

Can someone tell me why this match was even started? ranked, replay code

J7M5NC

these games just makes you want to delete this nonsense. after 30m eichenwalde draw you find this 3m loss, where i fully believe that even if i had full headshot aimbot on bap we would still lose.

Games like this should never ever happen.

Worst thing is that i kinda know where is the problem for years already. Ranked in ow is grindfest. Diamond 1 76 with 20 games played is HIGHLY LIKELY way better then Diamond 1 76 with 100 games played and i think game dont consider this which is massive issue.

Results of banning Mercy every single game

We decided with my duo to do placements for dmg and tank while banning Mercy every single game because we are totally sick of ashe mercy smurfing sometimes mnking poison pandemic.

It was beatiful of course but also sad and hilarious because in only 20 games we met - mercy otp who says: gg iam mercy otp and proceeded to literally just walk around as Ana and healing like 1000 dmg. Dmg player leaving with no comment after mercy got ban twice. The mercy player asking why the hell you banned mercy, random replied - maybe so you dont get boosted? Then the ashe left and match was cancelled, ashe was very low level account and mercy was private. The mercy pocketing absolutely broken hitscan meta heroes while often combined with mnking and smurfing is such a huge issue on console..

unpackaged trade goods (blue item) - explain like iam 5

I dont understand this, i search through other threads and google and i still dont get it.

I just always donated all to the camp guy.

You cant directly sell it, you cant mount it on horse to sell in trade shop, if you give it to camp guy, it takes money and then cant be used whatsoever? It cant be put in wagon aswell if its donated to camp but the donation actually takes money, this is tenet for me.

I understand you buy stuff somewhere and sell it somewhere more expensive with horse or wagon.

BUT WHAT the helly is the blue items you are getting whole game? Please explain like iam 5

its so simple to make ow console great again..

What is really depressing is how easy is to fix ow console

i skipped last season ranked because its just so bad lately, now i finally tried and FIRST 2 GAMES ashe mercy smurfing cheater, GM from placements last season. going like 30/2 of course, nothing we could do.Same terror as when i quit comp. My blood is boiling, i dont want this cheater to ruin games for weeks but he will.

Playing ow for 10+ years and it makes depressed how easy it would be to fix this nonsense. You cant have pocket hero when you have such a massive smurfing and mandkay problem, you just cant.

  1. rework mercy so she is not pocket bot to smurfs and cheaters
  2. make smurfs play atleast 200 games before going to comp

EVERYTHING FIXED and we can live in beatiful console ow enviroment, WHY IS THIS NOT HAPENNING. ITS TOO SIMPLE

Another day, another forced QP lose streaks!

Its my weekly thread now haha, qp forced loses are absolutely real and noone can prove me otherwise. In ranked or mystery its not problem at all, in ranked you will win most while climbing and then win some and lose some around your true rank, that makes sense.

Mystery also win some, lose some, 5+ lose streak is extremely rare.

QP is utterly broken on console and NEEDS TO BE FIXED YESTERDAY. Atleast 4 times a month there are days with unwinnable games back to back, like whole team going going 0/4, no aimbot would even change the outcome. I dunno what it is really but its combo of smurfs, ashe mercy duos and stacks, there is zero sense in qp matchmaking, its worst its ever been

u/rolandassassin — 4 months ago

We lost this game (Sigma)

Hybrid - blizzard world, iam really done with this game, it felt extremely easy, like fighting against bots almost and we still lost, somehow they back capped when 4 of my teammates were alive and random stuff like that happen, cant endure this nonsens anymore

Ashe Mercy ruined console overwatch like nothing else before

Ashe Mercy is like spreading problem and it completely ruined console overwatch, how is this ok?

Ashe Mercy is serious problem for console overwatch and needs to be adjusted

There used to be terrible metas, i remember most of them since 2016. Some were painful but short some less painful but too long.

Whats too consistent is Ashe Mercy in QP. I swear 50% of the games there is ashe mercy in either team. Usually similiar names, private profiles, mercy only following ashe nonstop. Sometimes profile is public like this mercy, 68 games and 53 wins, amazing.

Its extremely big problem not talked enough about.

  1. Very unfun for variety, this game has 50+ heroes and you see some of them NONSTOP. No day without ashe mercy followed by dva and widow
  2. In solo Q its terrible to play against as dps, you will not ask your random to pocket you, every 1v1 is unfair
  3. Hitscan is already broken on console even after 3 nerfs due to ridiculous aim assist and some XIMs, pocket histcan is just nonsense
  4. And cmon... nerf smurfing finally, 300 games played to enter comp, no less, EASY SOLUTION RIGHT HERE.

I would still prefer old aim assist back, noone asked for the new one but maybe thats not final solution.

I think its reallly time after 10 years to remove Mercy damage boost, it singehandely ruining the whole console overwatch.

tldr : Iam completely ruined by having pocket edaters hitscan smurf private profiles ashe mercy duos in majority of the qp games, it really destroyed my favorite game i play for 10 years

Dear Blizzard, I never, never ever, want to play against 4 stack as duo, thank you

Please iam begging you, i would rather wait three times longer. I dont need to play QP like that, i truly dont need that experience.

Played against same 4 stack 3 times today, so much fun being hunted by almost whole lobby once your hp is under half while you play with your friend and probably random 3 dads who just wanted to play some online and are confused whats happening.

This sh*t is ridiculous. QP MM is in its worst state ever.
