    @Palette24caratsI've been thinking about getting into Overwatch more and start enjoying other games.

    Apex is fun but its taken over by smurphs, cheaters, bot players, terrible servers, audio issues, no-regs, and the playerbase is getting smaller each and everyday; to the point where you just see the same players in your matches having zero skills when they're on your team, but then suddenly the champion playing like a TTV when they're on the enemy's team, (mainly see this with bot accounts).

    The fact that I could have somewhat of a even skilled based match, win, and then the next game, I just get two rookies who only hit bronze IV last season, while I'm gold III, who had hit plat IV last season, yeah... no... clearly that's a rigged system. (Not to mention that the "champion" squad, is just two low levels, (from a match today), where one was a level 38, the other a level 74, and the 3rd was a masters player in silver II).

    Game spends more time on remaking skins for guns and legends, and running TV ads that no one really watches, (or cares about), than it does trying to maintain its playerbase.

    I had big hopes for season 16, and thought it was going strong with its changes, but nope, its only gone more downhill, and its time they start working on the actual core problems with the game, (matchmaking, audio, cheaters, smurphs, servers, etc.)

  • Then explain how it’s gotten worse over the last 4 years I’ve been playing

    @Midnight9746 I play Overwatch here and there. Played OW1 like crazy on release but it just doesn't hold my interest long term. Every match starts feeling exactly the same after a while & it gets really stale for me.

    I am really looking forward to The Finals and XDefiant when they come out. I played the beta of The Finals and it had a lot of potential. Haven't gotten into the XDefiant beta but the YT videos I see look pretty good. Also very curious about Dr Disrespect's game; I think you can buy early build access.

    I really just need something as a change of pace to Apex. I do really love Apex but it is incredibly infuriating at times due to the long running issues and I won't be spending any more money on Apex until the do something meaningful to address matchmaking, cheaters, & other gameplay issues.
  • It is interesting to hear about MM from the experienced players.

    I am playing my 2nd month now and I do not get it.

    From some point on instead of players approximately of my lelvel I got ppl x10 times more experienced than I am and it would not fix.

    It is like I was chosen to be a dead meat for the experienced palyers to toy with and teabag. But my question arises - when I will start to get fun again? At the beggining it was fun, now I do not get it.

    The skill gap in this game is huge - every game mechanic have it's shadow parts, which is not taught by the game at all. And this gap makes is impossible for me do defeat a guy with 1k+ hours of playing. I btw now have 90 hrs. So how am I supposed to play this game? Drop my work and start to train in order to just be on par with the players that were delivered by the game's obviously broken MM?

    Like the guy on the screenshot who was rolling on me the whole match, destroying me with his SMG from miles away. And he may be just experienced player who knows how to play but I DO NOT. In the article RE said that MM supposed to place me in the match which I CAN win. Really?!

    Lowkey annoyed as matchmaking gave me two randoms who were both console players. Uhh.... they're not in my party or on my friends list, so why did I get them as randoms? I'm going to guess they glitched the matchmaking or it left their PC friend in the lobby and shoved them onto my team instead. Either way, this ruined the experience for me, especially when both of them kept running off into Narnia, pinging "enemy here", (with one of them being Bloodhound, who was pinging the raven), but then going in the opposite direction of the enemy team every single time. Like... why?

    (Different images spliced together to show that both aren't on my friends list or in my party, and that both are console players):
