What they’re doing… Is SMART! They are literally testing abilities for PVE while making it into an event. This is why I love what Overwatch does things like this
They should keep these, at least in a game mode in the Arcade. Edit: I mean the stupid buffs more than the voice lines, they can change the buffs every now and then to add some variety. And use it as a testing ground for ideas, mechanics and mini reworks.
i love the fact that they admit a little bit that they fucked up in some of the dev notes, makes me belive they are actually human and not only number crunching machines :D
What they can state publicly is very controlled. It feels “number crunchy” because they are forced to speak like that. The devs are real humans. If you wanna be mad at people, be mad at the executives and the business bro managers that enforce their rules
When this is over, they should add an "April Fools Modifier" into the workshop that enables all these. This event was hilarious, and I desperately want it as a rotating arcade mode
Exactly my thoughts and fortunately a few users on here share these sentiments im finding in the comments. Would be a nice addition to arcade or custom games
This should unironically be the Sombra Rework. I mean, this is OP, but a variation of this is good if you want Sombra's to be aggressive. The risk-reward on this is massive. Requires good aim, good timing and sacrifices your most powerful defensive tool on the CHANCE you might deal a high burst damage blow good enough to confirm a kill if followed up on with the SMG or the target was at low health. Still more fair than Cassidy's grenade.
I love these so much lmao. My favorites are Rein, Genji, Sojourn, Kiriko and Mercy Cass voiceline is great as well Edit: im referring to the patch notes/changes themselves btw not the voice lines
@@davidrich27 My guess is in the process of making the fire spread to team-mates it spreads to yourself and stacks 4x. Idk what's up with it but I hope it gets fixed on Monday. The game mode itself is quite enjoyable
April fools patch is my favorite. It lets the devs add a bunch of crazy wild things to test them and get feedback while knowing the players won't take it seriously enough to get mad. I wish they could put patches like this together more often and like, categorize them specially to try and convey that message. Oh shit that's experimental-
Having Reinhardt being able to fly is the best thing ever! The fear I can place into widow's hearts as I fly towards them full speed at Mach Jesus is a thrill that I will miss once the patch goes away
They really gave Atlas’s “Unstable fissure” talent to Tracer. Also, if the Widow change was real it’d make me really happy. Even if it was up to 100 instant damage and the rest as poison, as long as it isn’t an instant kill I’d be much more comfortable with it.
All of the characters that have extreme similarities to TF2 got even more TF2 similarities (Lucio gained an Airblast reflect, Reinhardt basically gained the ability to trimp, etc) They made a fun update and I’m happy.
why were so many of those changes just really good? I'd love to see Lucio able to reflect projectiles, that takes enough skill to actually be balanced. Widow having poison bullets on sniper bodyshots sounds awesome too. (even if it's all just for one quirky gamemode, would definitely be a welcome change after the unbased change of reducing tank health amounts depending on the gamemode you play?!)
why? So she does less damage than ashe when shooting slower, having bad movement and a bad ult? LMAO you literally want her to be useless Lucio reflecting bullets makes him easily the best Support and completely broken too, might as well remove genji at this point
As a TF2 player I've needed Lucio airblast since launch, wouldn't be the first time my brain defaulted back to pyro mid game and i tried to deflect a grenade or something
I am surprised no one noticed April Fools Pharah’s Rocket Jump ability is just a direct reference to TF2 Soldier. Yeah… I wish Pharah can do that in actual game. I mean, Rocket Jump is by far the coolest thing you can do.
I got some disgusting kills with hanzo in this mode, headshot a mercy I couldn’t see around a corner and the same game shot my sonic in an echo that was in the air and shot my storm arrows at her and missed but they came back after like 5 seconds
I think they made a mistake, since she can kill you at full health with 1 dynamite, as it seems to be seeing you as a separate player each time, causing 4 burns on you
Bro that Lucio change should stay lmao. Now we can do Tf2 Pyro airblast reflects. Boop an enemy while simultaneously reflecting a Junkrat grenade to hit them. Literal perfection for Reddit Frogs like me.
Honestly, Doomfists shockwave should launch people in air by default, the sigma change would be fucking sweet, mines I feel should just move around slightly but not hone towards people, dynamite should naturally spread to people, torb buff, and Moira Orbs ( if she can stop the heal orbs from moving ) Also wtf they did nothing for Zarya 🤣
What they’re doing… Is SMART! They are literally testing abilities for PVE while making it into an event. This is why I love what Overwatch does things like this
u have no replay ha h
Yes because Genji spamming I need healing in pve will heal him
@@sideofsalt5170 I’m pretty sure he’s talking about soldier 76’s Biotic field following him and Mei’s Triple wall
@@sideofsalt5170 And some others
They could even add some things in the real game...zen need something
They should keep these, at least in a game mode in the Arcade.
Edit: I mean the stupid buffs more than the voice lines, they can change the buffs every now and then to add some variety. And use it as a testing ground for ideas, mechanics and mini reworks.
I would want that too, but that would make them less special.
Fr
@@BullenKullen yeah unfortunately
And make the voicelines be able to toggle on in the settings.
Here's hoping this is a taste of what we'll able to do in pve
I'd literally become a whole new person lol
Genji mains have something to cheer about instead of him getting nerfed
Imagine the patch notes lied and it actually takes health away when he says “I nEeD hEaLiNg” every 2 seconds
It literally doesn't heal you if you are too far away from healers lol.
But what about zen mains and so on..someone will always be complaining
Pls just nerf genji again there are too many people with gold weapons for him
Hmmm blade go CHING CHING CHING
i love the fact that they admit a little bit that they fucked up in some of the dev notes, makes me belive they are actually human and not only number crunching machines :D
Winston
the fact they're joking with sojourn, mercy, and genji really shows they're more in touch than people give them credit for
The number crunchers want you to think that
What they can state publicly is very controlled. It feels “number crunchy” because they are forced to speak like that. The devs are real humans. If you wanna be mad at people, be mad at the executives and the business bro managers that enforce their rules
I love the biotic orb stop and go. It's so nice to shoot it off in a direction and stop it when I hear the hit indicators
Just which I as moira could hear the kamehameha voiceline and not as a enemie.
When this is over, they should add an "April Fools Modifier" into the workshop that enables all these. This event was hilarious, and I desperately want it as a rotating arcade mode
Exactly my thoughts and fortunately a few users on here share these sentiments im finding in the comments. Would be a nice addition to arcade or custom games
Note:
Ashe has an unlisted buff, her dynamite now does 600+ damage
She is completely and utterly broken
Zen is so much fun, would love to have it in some separate arcade mode
flying zen, flying zen, battles pharah without any help
He can kick during his ultimate
@@angryfinn7737 hold on, what?! Is that true?
@@miguelcruz7826 l wish
I love that Sombra gets a telefrag now. That is so funny.
Transponder plus Emp is going to be nasty
This should unironically be the Sombra Rework. I mean, this is OP, but a variation of this is good if you want Sombra's to be aggressive.

Still more fair than Cassidy's grenade.
Widow gets bullied by her teleport frags so much
I love these so much lmao. My favorites are Rein, Genji, Sojourn, Kiriko and Mercy
Cass voiceline is great as well
Edit: im referring to the patch notes/changes themselves btw not the voice lines
@iknowwhatyouare896 "superhero" lmao nahhh
Moira is amazing
"I'll show you meta!" And "Kamehameha" lmao
What about sigs what are those
Moira saying "Kamehameha" during her ult is awesome.
Hanzo fr tried to be Cookie Monster 💀
Mission failed. Successfully
Love this chaos. My only complaint is ash is bugged to do 4x damage with dynamite.
Okay that makes more sense. I was wondering why dynamite seemed crazy.
@@davidrich27 My guess is in the process of making the fire spread to team-mates it spreads to yourself and stacks 4x.
Idk what's up with it but I hope it gets fixed on Monday. The game mode itself is quite enjoyable
It was a bug?!
THEY DISABLED ASHEEEEEE 🎉
@@minsungswifey 🎉🤌

Oh shit that's experimental-
Bro said "Its 2 in the morning 😈"
The genji patch got me 💀
6:53 that just hurts now
Having Reinhardt being able to fly is the best thing ever! The fear I can place into widow's hearts as I fly towards them full speed at Mach Jesus is a thrill that I will miss once the patch goes away
The real April fools joke is blizzard making the game actually fun and then reverting all of the changes a day later
'It's 2 in the mornin'"
That got me good lmao.
imagine if these are some of the upgraded abilities coming in the PvE mode, i swear i remember them teasing ability upgrades in PvE mode a while back.
For the record:
Ashe got disabled around 2 hrs ago - GMT -5 Timezone (8 PM here)
I guess Blizzard found her too OP lol
She was genuinely bugged. Did way more damage than she was supposed to
They really gave Atlas’s “Unstable fissure” talent to Tracer.
Also, if the Widow change was real it’d make me really happy. Even if it was up to 100 instant damage and the rest as poison, as long as it isn’t an instant kill I’d be much more comfortable with it.
Yes
(From the future) 6:53 Yeah, about that...got some bad news.
did Kiriko just say dattebayo as the ult voice line...
She's not only a Naruto fan but also a furry and barks like.... they know their target audience a little too well..
I'd say the line but I actually have human decency
1:40 Why does this voice line sound like an actual voice line
Whenever you say something on rein, you get a message like “BRING ME ANOTHER” or “FOR GLORY”
Bap is even more unkillable in this mode I love it
This is the first time they buffed Genji
I started playing genji just for the voice line. Then i discovered the healing hack. He is one of my faves now.
All of the characters that have extreme similarities to TF2 got even more TF2 similarities (Lucio gained an Airblast reflect, Reinhardt basically gained the ability to trimp, etc)
They made a fun update and I’m happy.
i like how for roadhog they just un-nerfed him
they should have given him the old hook, the one that could pull through the fucking walls lmao
there is so much shade from the devs in this patch note. its hilarious!
I want the Zen movement, Widow poison, and some of the voice lines.
why were so many of those changes just really good?
I'd love to see Lucio able to reflect projectiles, that takes enough skill to actually be balanced. Widow having poison bullets on sniper bodyshots sounds awesome too. (even if it's all just for one quirky gamemode, would definitely be a welcome change after the unbased change of reducing tank health amounts depending on the gamemode you play?!)
why? So she does less damage than ashe when shooting slower, having bad movement and a bad ult? LMAO you literally want her to be useless
Lucio reflecting bullets makes him easily the best Support and completely broken too, might as well remove genji at this point
I genuinely like the widow changes here. Put her to 225 and keep the vision part which is in character with her kit anyways
why? So she does less damage than ashe when shooting slower, having bad movement and a bad ult? LMAO you literally want her to be useless
Ok!
BROOO THE I NEED HEALING GIVES YOU HEALS LMFAO🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nobody:
Nobody:
Absolutely Nobody:
Matt: "It's too in the mornin'"
As a TF2 player I've needed Lucio airblast since launch, wouldn't be the first time my brain defaulted back to pyro mid game and i tried to deflect a grenade or something
Honestly some of these event changes are actually cool like the Mei wall
These pre-season 4 changes are dope, keep it up!
They always drop good shit when I can’t play
mcree voice lines are funny but gotta love the kamehameha lol
Bruh I was so hype now I'm not cause I actually want these
1:12 best emongg blade
“iiiit’s *checks watch* two in the mornin”
I feel that all this buffs are actually upgrades from the PvE mode lol
In pve torb should be who makes all the ability upgrades
Cassidy Roll's meter and mei's wall are the only Things That would be great if added to the actual patch
I am surprised no one noticed April Fools Pharah’s Rocket Jump ability is just a direct reference to TF2 Soldier.
Yeah… I wish Pharah can do that in actual game. I mean, Rocket Jump is by far the coolest thing you can do.
I thought the mccree line was “it’s too early” which would have been so raw
Man seeing Emogg's accent come out makes my Bostonian heart flutter. Accept your true form.
genji straight up saying KUSO (shit) lol
Orisa flying over Blizzard world wall and ulting whilst dealing damage while landing is so fun.
I actually kinda like some of these
the real april fool is that they forgot zarya
Playing rein also adds onto what you type in chat
Love this patch but idk how much I'll also hate it lol
I’m like 90% sure this is for fun and they’re testing out some of the PvE abilities like soldiers heal moving with him was in one of the PVE trailers.
It's april fools
I got some disgusting kills with hanzo in this mode, headshot a mercy I couldn’t see around a corner and the same game shot my sonic in an echo that was in the air and shot my storm arrows at her and missed but they came back after like 5 seconds
I absolutely love this event because Orisa can do a "HELIKOPTER HELIKOPTER" now.
i want that as a permenant game mode NOW
Lucio air blast and brig grapple hook, please just add those
The widow change would be so awesome in live
He didn't spam "I need healing!" enough. I swear it works now.
Emongg reads patch notes should be the video title
These are definitely finished abilities from the pve mode
Nooooo, they turned Ashe into Brand from League.
I think they made a mistake, since she can kill you at full health with 1 dynamite, as it seems to be seeing you as a separate player each time, causing 4 burns on you
@@CharterForGaming yeah there's a bug, I got full health'd cuz a Hog wandered over w his vape lmao
It was released early because it was already April 1th in Europe (I think)
Pretty sure anas change is a metal gear solid reference
Ngl, I find helicopter Orisa way funnier than it should be
Zarya mains punching the air rn
2:58 every Genji main ever
How is nobody talking about his uncanny impression of Bill Burr
Changes i really hope they keep:
-Orisa's fortify
-Hog
-Echo
-Reaper
-Torb
-Ana
-Lucio's deflect
and widows nerf
My favorite has to be ILL SHOW YOU META
I think Blizzard is staring to learn
Now sojourn power slide is a better genji dash 😊
As a fellow Bostonian I can confirm that the accent is strong with this one
Kiriko teleport through the all map
Bro that Lucio change should stay lmao. Now we can do Tf2 Pyro airblast reflects.
Boop an enemy while simultaneously reflecting a Junkrat grenade to hit them. Literal perfection for Reddit Frogs like me.
Marblr at 1:50 lmao
But I actually wouldn't hate if like, Queen's ability got added
soilder 76's ult is hilarious
These patch notes are so unhinged, I love it.
Honestly, Doomfists shockwave should launch people in air by default, the sigma change would be fucking sweet, mines I feel should just move around slightly but not hone towards people, dynamite should naturally spread to people, torb buff, and Moira Orbs ( if she can stop the heal orbs from moving )
Also wtf they did nothing for Zarya 🤣
0:30 you gotta wait two seconds man, two second rule applies in overwatch two two.
devs go unhinged
Can't wait to see rein pin phara against a tower 20 feet up
Wait did kiriko say dattebayo
This is beautiful
Thanks Emongg
I’m sad I missed this event
I feel like OW is going back to its roots (TF2 and WOW)
Hangout should definitely keep his
Gotta play
Genji
Sojourn
Soldier
Ana
Bastion
Lucio
All insane changes lmao
ZENYATTA HAS MOVEMENT NOW YAY
Genji sounds like he's saying "chin chin." In my headcanon they did that on purpose XD
Okay but like what if some of this in the actual game, this sounds like a lot of fun tbh
collect the little balls to win a prize
-hammond
Aw man how long will this patch last :( im still in college 😢
The developer comments are just fire.
