    The game is rubbish. There is no balance in the tank game. The team that owns Mercy is the winner. Replay 6 vs. 6 is the best option

    Bring back 6v6. The game lost it's soul. There's a lot of C9 and the defending team mostly wins the game.

    I just want to put a low rating, because it's a shame in 2022 to have such a start of the game, when a day later you can't go into this miracle.

    Spending $60 on a game that isn't fun is sad. But Overwatch 1 brought a lot of positive emotions.

And this is the first frustration - the game that I bought no longer exists. Imagine that you bought a song by a popular native artist, which in a couple of years replaced by a song of no named Russian artist, and without warning.

    Don't expect quality from Overwatch 2. It feels like rewatching the TV show from childhood when you're already grown up - everything is very familiar, but equally foreign.

    New graphic design - a solid 1 out of 5. EVERYTHING has changed. If you have not played for a long time, you will be greeted by a completely new UI. Simply bad.

    ALL menus have changed - finding something where you found it for 8 years is unrealistic.

    5v5 aren't 6v6. You are again in new circumstances.

    The characters have changed - it's not bad, from one point of view. On the other hand, no one warned you about this. Before and after entering the game, you were asked many times to buy something. But they didn’t tell how your favorite characters changed.

    Overall score 1.5 out of 10. 0.75 for the title and another 0.75 for being the only game I play with my 11-year-old son. He really liked the Overwatch 1.    … Expand

Кредиты, ни как, если за ранее не накопил в старой версии, остаются только соревновательные, за которые купишь только золотой скин на оружие.... могли бы хотя бы другие цвета добавить, либо анимированные.

    Вторая часть как ни как, должно быть колоссальное обновление, но они гордо задрали нос и хвастаются эпохальными скинами, и на все остальное клали болт. И за это я отдал деньги пару лет назад, чтобы получить бесплатную версию с наихудшими изменениями. 1 балл за Кирико, понравилась очень

However, no one cares that some people bought the first Overwatch for a lot of money.

    Now to the "features" of the game. As a professional player on Mercy, I want to say that now I am not needed in the team. My character was cut the range of approach to an ally, the treatment time was cut. But Kiriko appeared, a new support that needs to be pushed up, because otherwise the work of developers will not be justified.

    Previously, the game had a balance of characters: two supports, two tanks, two damagers. Now, by removing one tank, the developers have removed the desire to play. But they added a lot of problems for dedicated players, such as constant crashes from the game, connection errors, and long queues to enter the game.

    I tried to log into the game, so as not to lie, 5 times. All this time I was standing in line, where only the number of people in front of me changed, and then they wrote to me about the expired connection time. After playing one game and catching a mistake, I realized that the developers had been sitting for three years and coming up with a plan to lose the target audience without giving them an alternative choice.    … Expand

    Баланса нет! геймплей 5 на 5 полная ерунда. это годится только для аркадных режимов наравне с другими режимами типа 3 на 3 и 4 на 4, которые уже и есть, но никак не для соревновательного режима! в это невозможно играть! порушена вся гармония, уничтожено все то, за что я любил овервотч. Того приятного лампового геймплея больше нет, уничтожено куча стратегий, мелких тактик, возможностей!

    5 на 5 абсолютно не годится для тех карт и режимов, которые вы позаимствовали из overwatch 1. Те карты были заточены исключительно для старого баланса и количества персонажей! Сейчас стало абсолютно неиграбельно для передвижения груза и других режимом!!! Вы должны были создавать новые карты и режимы для нового баланса персонажей!!!!! Для такого баланса больше подошел бы захват заложников или обезвреживания взрывчатки с соответствующими локациями, но никак не это!!!!!!

    Some pluses:

    There is a new dynamic in the game with 5 players instead of 6: it's quicker and requires different strategies. Graphics are different, they look clean.

    There is a new dynamic in the game with 5 players instead of 6: it's quicker and requires different strategies. Graphics are different, they look clean. New heroes are fun to play and there are new maps that are genuinely really fun.

    The negatives:

    HUD is difficult. For example, it's very hard to see if you eliminated a player because it's only written in small letters. The main issue is that Overwatch moved away from being an uncomplicated game and now requires people to spend stupidly amounts of time playing this game and/or paying a lot of money to unlock features. It's really expensive and in no context to the previous game, Overwatch 1. I'm not sure if I will stick with this game, as it's designed as a time and money sink. That's sad given that I really enjoyed Overwatch 1.    … Expand

    They call it a new game, Overwatch 2, but what is new?
    1. Donate too much money.
    2. Battle pass.
    3. Day/night map.
    4. 3 new heroes.

    So why is this a new game?
    Dead balance in game, why should i buy skins from overwatch to overwatch 2 with real money, it is now impossible to see the levels of players in a match.

    Its almost the same game but they still managed to make it worse by removing loot boxes in favour of a massively expensive item shop and battle pass, making the game 5v5 and adding barely any content after years. the only reason im giving it a 1 and not a 0 is because its f2p and i can play with my imaginary friends

    1. It is not a new game. It is a large update that is being advertised as a sequel. It's painful hearing professional critics say comments like "it really *feels* like the original Overwatch"... that's because it *IS* the original Overwatch. League of Legends had a bigger overhaul in the past and they didn't tout their game as League of Legends 2 when doing so.

    Let's even compare this    1. It is not a new game. It is a large update that is being advertised as a sequel. It's painful hearing professional critics say comments like "it really *feels* like the original Overwatch"... that's because it *IS* the original Overwatch. League of Legends had a bigger overhaul in the past and they didn't tout their game as League of Legends 2 when doing so.

    Let's even compare this to an actual sequel from Activision-Blizzard, Call of Duty, using MW vs. MW2 by Infinity Ward. There are all new operators, maps, guns, significant changes to gunplay, movement, loadout systems, among additions like swimming and water combat. On top of all that, they have a completely new mode (DMZ), campaign, WZ2.0, and more. This is just a quick overview to give a comparison to what you are getting in Overwatch 2, leading to my next point:

    2. It is difficult to fathom how this is several years of work. Even for a patch, after this long, this is a small number of additional maps. There is only a single new mode (Push) which is okay, it's a slight twist on what we have as regular gameplay, but it's hardly innovative and does not add much variety.

    Removal of at least one map, maybe 6 new maps, a few of which are unique to the new Push mode. If you've played Overwatch for years, it's not exactly fun to come back for Overwatch 2 to play the same exact map you've played except they moved the directional light a few degrees so it's sunset instead. I'm not playing the new Call of Duty finding myself playing the same map as the last.

    It has been confirmed by Blizzard, in the most lawyer-speech sort of way as usual, that the supposedly upcoming PvE mode will not be released as a $60 box, but rather they have "shifted [their] model now to start releasing things seasonally". This is clearly so that people will end up paying even MORE THAN $60 to obtain all the content that was originally planned to be a single $60 purchase. Any thought that they are providing you the customer any more by changing to this monetization model is gaslighting, which I will elaborate more on.

    3. There are 3 new heroes, again, a sad number to add as with the maps. To go deeper into this, there is far too much concern by the development team to have balanced heroes all the time and provide expensive promotional material for each and every character they introduce. Perfect balance is unachieveable, and it would be better for the FUN of the game to add way more, especially for a sequel. They should have dropped another 21 heroes (the number of heroes in the original Overwatch) and embraced the chaos as there was when OW originally released.

    There has been a distinct lack of variety and creativity even among the 3 we have gotten. Considering the last few additions to the roster, I suspect this will be ongoing. Two have repeated origins, we have yet another Japanese character who can run up walls and has magical abilities based off a spirit animal, questionably stereotypical of Japanese people in the way that Afro-Haitians would have voodoo magic. We have another Austrailian character from Junkertown.

    I still await the actually creative variety of characters we were teased with for Overwatch 1 when it was announced at BlizzCon 2014, with more shown to us at BlizzCon 2017. If you have not seen them, I suggest you take a look so you can understand just how lackluster the character's we've actually received have been. Watch our 4th new hero be yet another a variation of a hero we had...

    4. In addition to the change in business model for Overwatch 2's PVE mode, the F2P monetization model OW2 has changed to is also predatory, as you would expect from Blizzard especially following Diablo Immortal this year. Prices for skins are absurdly high, many are minor changes from their base (a different jacket on Kiriko for example). Other games with a similar business model are FAR more rewarding for playing without buying anything, Fortnite being a great example, where you can generally purchase the premium Battle Pass just by earning V-Bucks via the free Battle Pass, in which you will earn more V-Bucks where you can buy the next season's premium Battle Pass, and earn more V-Bucks, of which you can of course buy whatever you want from the store. Existing rewards from OW1 were not updated to match the quality of the new OW2 skins (the faces for example have not changed). They have been deceptive by saying they were updated in any fashion, it was only the materials which are GLOBALLY updated with the engine. The amount of time it takes to earn anything is hysterically long, literally months to earn one thing. Paying $60 will not equate to the value of purchasing OW1 for $60.

    I never usually review games. The PVE mode will have to be incredible to make up for this dumpsterfire.

    Edit: 6/8/2023 - Coming back to this, I am solidifying that this game is a 0/10 with the news about OW2 PvE having been canceled.    … Expand

Все это просто наглая и мерзкая ложь в сторону комьюнити которая верила Близам и действительно ждали чего-то грандиозного, что в конечном итоге и привило игру к таким оценкам, которые я считаю получены заслуженно.

    PvE режим. Было очень много сказано о том что в PvE будет много сюжета, новые механики, способности и т.д. Все кто следил за тем выступлением, уже понимали что ИМЕННО ДЛЯ ЭТОГО и выходит 2 часть. Вопрос, на кой х** вы выпустили тот же OW в котором вы ввели изменения которые могли быть и в первой части. Скажите прямо что вы хотели ввести новую систему доната, и вам нужны деньги! Зачем устраивать столько паразитных публикаций о новой части, если по сути в ней нет ничего нового. Все те изменения которые есть во второй части, могли бы выйти и в первой, если вы банально завозили их в первую часть, а не объявили затишье и громкий выпук о НОВОЙ ЧАСТИ ИГРЫ ( которая не принесла ничего нового).

    Многие скажут: "А КАК ЖЕ НАТИСК, А КАК ЖЕ НОВАЯ МЕТА 5x5???". Дорогое сообщество, и те индивиды кто действительно оправдываются этими пустыми словами в адрес новой части. Вспомните о тех режимах которые ровно также выходили и в первой части. Почему Близард тогда не сделали OW2 для тех режимов, тогда бы мы смело сейчас играли в OW5))). Мета 5х5. Тоже самая история, вспомните когда Близы добавили 2х2х2, почему ей не было добавлена новая часть с громкими высказываниями.

    Донат стал через чур жесткий, который не пощадит не новых игроков, ни старых. Я считаю что это может повлиять на OW в хорошую сторону, я не противлюсь этому, но зачем делать его таким дорогим ( говорю лично про РФ ). Даже если брать донат из Fortnite, я могу потратить лишь 500р за бп, и получить донатной валюты которая будет превышать ту, которую я изначально купил путём обычного выполнения заданий и вкачивания уровня. Здесь же нету ни какой мотивации для гринда валюты. Особенно жалко что для старичков не дали даже 1 бесплатный боевой пропуск, хотя только эти люди и держали на плаву эту игру все эти 3 года.

    В завершении хочется просто попрощаться с этой игрой, потому что мой уровень доверия к Близард значительно упал, и возвращаться в эту игру я смогу лишь в PvE режим который выйдет уж точно не скоро. Обидно что многие игроки и так схавают такое поведение, а новички не будут сильно противоборствовать, ведь для них игра стала бесплатной. Но я счастлив что игра останется прежней хотя бы в моих воспоминаниях.

    Not only did they get rid of Overwatch 1 in favor of this EARLY ACCESS game, they removed features and, while graphically beautiful, the UI is an absolute mess. Most games allow you to see if your low health by a red graphic that comes up on the edges of the screen. Overwatch 1 did it, OW2 does not. The game that was touted as the PvE version of Overwatch, with a lot of in-game lore, story missions, hero levels and skill trees, not even there yet. They ceased production on Overwatch 1 so they could focus on overwatch 2, they weren't making the amount of money they wanted, so they said "Oh, we need money. Lets get rid of Overwatch 1 and only have Overwatch 2 Early Access available, this way we can bombard the player base with the worst battle pass ever that doesn't award in-game currency so if they want skins, they have to pay money OR grind for months in order to get a skin. Oh yeah, lets not forget that the skins we have in the battle-pass are pretty bad except for the mythic skin at max level. I'm sure they'll enjoy it."

    Word of warning, even thought most people know this. This company has lost its vision for Overwatch as a team-based hero shooter. it is now a deathmatch with secondary objectives. Most of the original developers have left the company and the game is now under a new vision. That vision being $$$. They do not care for their player-base or for their game. There is no passion here anymore.

    If you want a deathmatch game then this game is for you. The gameplay is relatively fun, even thought most of the hero roster needs to be tuned. It plays well and there is a fast(er) TTK for everything below 250 health.

Not mentioning the monetization. Locking heroes behind battle pass in a game where switching heroes is the core mechanic is just the worst. I'm just sad they killed the OG over this.

    6 years to a scuffed launch. IF you manage to get past the loading screen and play you may quickly find yourself reminiscent of the joys of the loading screen. If the wildly overturned battlepass isn't enough to ruin your day, the multiple game breaking glitches will. I guess that's what you get with a small indie company

    It's not a sequel at all. Just an update for overwatch 1 that changes all the monetisation policies. I replaces b2p game model with a fair unlockable content progression to a pay for everything predatory practices. You will have to grind your teeth to get a skin now.

    Blizzard did not fail to fail us again. Good job greedy people.

    I played OW1 for a short period at launch years ago, it was infinitely better than this.

    I hope they fail and I wish I could play my favorite game still. For the first time in 25 years I have 0 Blizzard games installed on any of my devices.

    Танк существует сам по себе, ДСП существуют сами по себе. Вся тактика осталась у хилов — просто бегать за дпсами и танком и хилить их. Если дайв-дпс ворвался в вашу команду, скорее всего, один из хилов сдохнет. Попробуйте на такой скорости кинуть слип аны в тонкую цель.

    1) the monetization is just downright bad, 1 legendary skin is nearly £20 and so is the "best" version of the battle pass witch is ultimately a let down.

    The next problem is that the coins that are required to buy anything, are only obtainable in two ways, by either buying them with real money, or completing 11 weekly challenges for 60 coins witch is not enough for even the cheapest items in the store.

    Legendry's cost 1100 coins so at a max of 60 coins a week it would take almost 19 weeks for one skin or what blizzard wants is for your £20.

    2)the lack of incentives is also a problem and it ties into the 1st problem being because everything cool is locked behind a pay wall you'll have nothing to grind for or feel accomplishment for unlocking.
    one way to fix both problems would be to increase the coins gained from challenges and add the coins to daily and sessional challenges as well, and add coins in free tears of the battle pass and some of the paid tears to incentives grinding that out.

    Something else to look at is the fact that blizzard could be doing a 2 steps forward 1 step back by making it really bad monetization wise now only to go a little bit back so consumers are more ok with some still very predatory ways of making money from you.

    finally the game its self is still enjoyable but that shouldn't give the other problems a free pass.

    edit: a legendary is actually 1900 coins so at a max of 60 a week it will take around 32 weeks of grind for one skin    … Expand

    The gameplay feels vastly inferior because healers are easily killed by flankers. Whole game even with godtier tank healers is decided by dps.
    Many dps like soujorn and sombra are insanely overpowered at this point in time.
    The biggest issue however is the predatory micro transactions. the battle pass isn't really rewarding for free players cuz who cares, srsly, about icons and sprays.

    There's also temporary 20 euro bundles that last 6 days and if you don't buy them, you will wait litteraly forever for it to come back.
    Overwatch 1 was such a amazing game and overwatch 2 is just so many steps down.

    To further add, on ow1 you could earn skins on lootboxes and earn credits. it was pretty nice.
    NOW in overwatch 2 they bring OLDDDD event skins and sell them to players for 20 euros.
    It's silly at this point, they are selling SUMMER ASH on HALLOWEEN time.

    It's beyond pathetic how we play for 1 week do all the challenges and only gain 60 coins for skins that cost 1900, granted the best skins are 20 euro and stuck behind a shop.
    Yeah play 33 weeks to buy a skin. when 90% of them are stuck behind paywalls. (edit, probably 100% every new skin has been paid walled.)

    4 years working on overwatch 2 and betas and this garbage that doesn't even show characters are on fire, or medals, or anything that made ppl feel good while playing ow1. is what they have to show for it.

    Overwatch 2 is a free to play game, and I’d definitely recommend trying it out if you haven’t to see how you feel about the gameplay and to see how well it runs on Steam Deck. Despite its flaws, it is still worth playing, but some of the decisions with how certain content has been handled in-game are weird. Overwatch 2 is yet to reach the highs of the original Overwatch, but it is still a great multiplayer game to play on Steam Deck. I enjoyed Overwatch 2 quite a bit on Switch despite the visual and performance cutbacks, but it really shines on Steam Deck.

    While the game is called Overwatch 2, this all seems more like a transition to a full new game. The biggest changes are dropping the 6v6 gameplay in favour of a much more exciting 5v5 format. Three new heroes are also available, along with a new game mode, but for a final and real verdict, everyone should wait for the upcoming PvE segment.

    Overwatch 2 delivers high-octane multiplayer gameplay and a wholly improved version of the much-loved hero shooter. Now that the dust has settled, it’s becoming clear that despite a number of teething issues, the game manages to do what many sequels struggle to; build upon a successful game, and make it even better.
