If you don't wanna sit through the 1hr 10m vid from Flats I cut it down to 11 minutes for you. Full interview IS here tho: ruclips.net/video/YwaXNpR5DrA/видео.html
Great video @KarQ Thanks for the sum up and added info Wonderful!
Question❓: Which two DPS would you suspect are up for the next wave of "reworks" 🤔
K I bet allot of people have seen this now considering the videos been out for an hour but if you pause at 6:36 you can see the Reese for vantage the support and a new tank that looks like bowser + scalier Godzilla + chespin final evo (the grass Pokémon starter in X&Y)
Hey karQ hello, I want to ask about kiriko and illary: why when you are using suzu as kiri, illary can't heal you with her beam it just goes through.
Thank you for your video's I love your voice sound relaxing:3
Still the same terrible ranked, still forces 50/50 feels like they did nothing to match maker just told everyone what they wanted to hear. Probably the worst match maker out of any game i have played.
10:27 JUMPSCARE
i reloaded my site bc i was looking after this comment
Got hit with The World
YO ITS ITALK
MY BAD BRO
@@KarQI think you can edit it no? Just mute the audio for half a second at that time or something
RIP to all headphone users at 10:27… 😔
my ears destroyed
@@dexter_Fmy cat is furious.
I wasn't wearing headphones and still jumped. It did not feel nice
10:27 scared tf out of me lmao
same dude lol
Thumbnail scared me lol, I thought they were moving him to dps
Tbh I'm a Ball main and that sounds like it would be fun
holy shit same
@@Antonio-ys5zdHonestly, it could work. Shrink his size a little, lower his health a little bit, change the shield ability to make him less tanky and more offensive, tweak the damage numbers a little and boom. Disruptor DPS. The CC and stuns would be ok then since he would be a dps and not the tank.
Fr 😂
@@Dr.Slaughterhe would die so fast as a dps or he would have to have such a high health pool, i don’t think changing his size a little will be enough, pretty much no one misses you when you play ball
Imagine if he works like DVA where if you destroy his mech you get to control the hamster with a blaster
It's just a 50-hp hamster running around, bitting people in the shins
They've said several times that they're not going to do that, Dva on her own already causes so many issues that they've decided adding yet another hero that exits their mech is off the table.
@@Hthe it should be 40 hp so you can kill him with melee
@@Hunangsiru should not kill hamster with melee.
@@maxshir6675they die so easily in real life hamond may be able to escape the food chain but he cannot escape reality
you scared me so much at 10:27
10:27 rip
Made me jump in my chair lol
lol he made a oopsie
Thank you to all the people who mentioned jumpscare at 10:27
WRECKING BALL REWORK HOLY SHIT 😭
I’ve been waiting a literal fucking year for this
They definitely should try the map vote system in a Quickplay Hacked or something. The double pick was pretty much ... useless ? The faster respawn was awesome, felt so much faster and I had a blast on it. We had no news on that and I wish they told us about what they thought of that
they said that wanted to make flashpoint faster to arrive the point from spawn, maybe they use the faster respawn there and a speed bonus when you respawn (I think they talked about this last point on a dev blog), the double pick I think that is not gonna work now, the game has been oriented on other gameplay from years ago and it's very hard to balance the game again for something like that, that would mean also do a lot of reworks to heroes to don't feel a lot of compositions so opresive
jumpscare at 10:26
The map choosing/banning feature is the perfect thing to test in quick play hacked
yea, it also can give them a lot of data of the "problematic" maps/modes to rework/improve them, I think that it could be a good addition after the "map rework season" they mentioned on the roadmap
ow has a lot of maps right now and for this year we know they are working on 4 new maps, the new push map, hanaoka for clash, another clash map for when the mode releases (pls anubis rework) and a new flashpoint map, so they need to do some maintanance to previous maps or the problems will start to accumulate
Title says ball rework and we only get one sentence about it 😭
Dude I know pissed me off
I'm mad ngl
if it will be at the start of season 10, it will be in 2 week so normal
W h e r e 💀@@DraxxDTDK
@@ThatCoolGuyAlex8 if i remember correctly, he said it with the interview with flats or when they talked about things coming in season 10
we luv u KarQ covering this for us 🥳
Worth remembering that Blizzard approved his questions in advance - he wasn't allowed to ask about 6v6 etc.
Tf was that blast to sound just after 10:30 ???
Arcade queue times are insane. Should maybe integrate Arcade and Cutom games together, so you get to select a game or create a lobby
10:26 scared the shit out of me
I appreciate this man’s timestamp dedication. It helps since I’m busy but still want info on certain things
6:55 to everyone who just want to hear about wrecking ball rework like me: youre welcome
My heart jumped outta my chest at 10:27
I really don’t want map voting. I personally enjoy a wide variety of maps. If anything, do halo 3 veto system where you can say no to one choice and get one random backup. That’ll still give them data on hated maps.
That's actually a great idea. They can see exactly which maps are most popular/least popular based on the number of votes, but without influencing the outcome of matchmaking too much.
@@nebulous9280 right, like let’s set the bad maps aside for reworks but not overplay the good maps.
I agree that a map ban system like Siege has would be best. Offer 5 random choices, each team simultaneously votes on one map each to ban and the final choice is randomly decided from the remaining 3 or 4 options (depending on whether both teams banned the same map).
@@nicholasbrackett2512fr I’m so tired of getting push maps
I know I'm wildly in the unpopular category but I'd actually be down for a hero ban system instead of a map ban system
PLEASE tell me Ball can mini boop people passively by rolling around, I can't count the times I have gotten stuck in a corner by being body blocked as the literal wrecking ball
Doesnt make too much sense to knock people back with no momentum
You can jump and roll over them a lot of times.
@@abizarreyoutuber6317 Its a huge ginormous metal ball.
I doubt an old lady alone could stop one from moving entirely.
Besides, light heroes or anyone without the steadfast passive should be booped around so that only really tanks can block out wrecking ball.
@@gurimisenpai2358 Mothgirl talked about being stuck in a corner, if youre in a corner then the giant metal ball wouldnt gather any speed to boop anyone
@@abizarreyoutuber6317the ball is controlled with a joystick to let it gain momentum, if a huge metal ball tries to gain momentum while not moving, it would easily push people out of the way
anyone else get jump scared at 10:27 ?
Thanks Karq! You're videos always cover a TON of stuff and in a truncated format. I appreciate your work man.
Thank you so much karq the summary is really appreciated !
Ximming is such frustrating experience. They should just drop mouse and keyboard support on consoles for ranked play… it’s not a fun experience at all and a lot of my friends are hesitant to play console bc of this
There is no mouse and keyboard support for console. Thats what a XIM is for. Because there is no mouse and keyboard support, players use an external device called XIM to convert the mouse and keyboard inputs as controller inputs and tricks the console/game. Think of it like Cheaters vs anti cheat. Cheaters use external software to trick a game to do something that its not supposed to. While anti cheat is trying to catch the tricks thrown at them. So its a constant war between the game anti cheat and ximmers with new updates. Once they find one trick and fix it, they'll come up with something new and that gets fixed and it'll keep going.
@@ashonline77 I understand. What crappy news ! I hope they start banning for this
They already ban it or soft ban, whenever u find one of them report them. We will win this war@@fleafinder2972
I don't play on console anymore, but when I did it was pure pain playing against Ximmers. It's always the hitscan with a boosted mercy pocket too... What kind of person would even xim? I don't get it, such losers smh
@@raphael4038 yh you are right even tho u can still win. This afternoon i've faced an ashe with xim and pocket and after the first game lost the second one i won. Keep reporting them it's all we can do rn but we controller player will rise and win
Thank you KarQ. I really wanted an idea of what was said in the interview but that thing was way too long. Thanks for making it more digestible.
What happened to the weapons that were blue and white that they made for Mercy, Rhinehardt, and Reaper? I bought Mercy's, I would like to see more of those weapons with different colors and sounds. I think they were dope.
There's a couple other new gun options you can see upcoming if you filter your hero gallery for unowned that I haven't seen in the shop yet. I know soldier is one but I think there was another
For colosseo, I would just prefer to change the time of day on that map. Sunset maps are eye glaring sometimes especially this map when the robot has to pass under the bridge and sometimes having to look up to shoot someone on top of
We are so back
Man that static pop at 10:27 made me think a power surge fried my computer!
I'd be cool if there was a way to read the comics and watch the shorts in-game.
Thanks for the ball info it told me a lot !
i cant wait to get individual rankings on the versus screen
Thank you!!
Thanks for condensing this.
Also well done to Aaron & the OW team for being much more communicative and keeping it up over a period of multiple months. I think there's been a sea change here -- in the past the OW dev team would often have a burst of sharing stuff then go dark for literally 6+ months. This seems like a thing of the past.
yes, but it is also frustrating that every question had to be pre approved. Im sure many, myself included wanted to know about 6v6 but that question wasnt allowed
The fact that they are happy with the new season is crazy
i never think that the healing passive would have been too op. and now we have the proof
I loved the competitive hero bans, really mixed matches up each time, was really interesting!
that dorado change would be nice, reminds me of when they removed tracer from being able to get up there with all that extra effort, for absolutely no reason.
audio jumpscare surprised me the first time, I had to rewind to confirm it was real, still surprised me the 2nd time. LOL
thank u for the cool vid karq
Pretty sure they've mentioned before that they're working on a Reaper rework so he's most likely 1 of the 2
i could definitely see a map pick option being super useful especially comp. honestly, i feel like it would cause less rage quits, because people typically just rage quit on a map they don't like anyway
having 3 maps to vote from for the lobby would be such an insane quality of life addition
If Reaper isn’t one of the DPS characters getting reworked I will do exactly what his ult tells me to.
Do you think reaper is too strong or too weak?
@@jada_9827 He’s on the weaker side cause everything he can do there’s a character who can do it better. I haven’t seen him much in my games in a long time. I’d like him to get a little love that could make him at least a viable pick.
@@RomantheWarriorgames oh ok, thanks for the detailed answer xD
10:27 RIP
Would love An Arcade Game Mode ( or at least in Game Browser) for getting randomly assigned Heroes who then draft all their abilities and ultimate from all the drafted heroes pool taking turns like in a proper draft
10:27 rip headphone users
Can you do the same thing for the 5v5 vs 6v6 taboo discussion?
I feel like one of the big changes I'd love to see is a reduction in the kill power of Supports, speaking as a Support (mostly Baptiste) main. The new DPS passive makes playing aggressively more important than ever, bringing "DPS Moira and Lucio" into the meta. As a Support player, it's really freaking annoying to be losing a game because you're trying to actually heal and support your team while the enemy Supports are diving your backline. And as a DPS, it feels obnoxious to try and dive a Support and just get deleted.
Tbh I'd be down to see all Supports lose their ability to crit, and have their kits rebalanced around that.
So basically instead of earning a fully customizable skin at the end pass you get to choose what pieces of the mythic you want. I hope that means well at least be able to buy more than one basic mythic skin without other customizables
Came for seeing wreacking ball rework...got littrely no info on it.
Damn 0 info Alr I’ll leave now
That jumpscare is the first, And truly the first to ever scare the shit out of me in my youtube history. God my heart is pounding so hard after that.
THAT SOUND GLITCH AT 10:28 SCARED TF OUT OF ME
My man out here being the people's champion. Thanks for the condensed info! 👄
4:39 HOLY DUCK THAT HOOK THO...LMFAO
SERIOUSLY!? ☠️🗿
Map choices of 3 should be voting for 1st pick and 2nd pick. That way you are getting the player to acknowledge they might get something better than their least favorite and overall it's a better voting system. It also let's them see which maps are getting the most "last place" votes.
10:27 was an intentional plan by KarQ to increase comments for the YT algorithm
Outstanding 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
i would love the new ranked system!… if it actually showed me my percentage after games. when i’m in a group playing ranked, it just doesn’t show me my upward/downward movement
I expected the jumpscare at 10:27 thanks to the comments but STILL got scared LOL
It would be cool if there was a QP and comp mode where before the start of the games it locks the other roles while everyone votes on who gets banned from each role. So starting with tank everyone votes and most votes on a hero gets banned from that role then it moves to DPS same thing so 3 hero ban per game. Would make it interesting to not knowing who will vote what and those who are good at a certain character would be forced to try different heroes. Kinda working in your favor cause it makes you a better player all around.
I wonder if hero ban would work if implemented as a time limit and not for an entire game/round
10:27 scared the hell out of me driving
I can't believe he said tanks are the hardest to balance when they been trying to balance supports since Overwatch 1
Because they are still under the illusion that tanks were the main problem in OW1. Tanks "caused" GOATS (which no, supports did). And tanks created double shield (which no, 2 tanks out of the entire line-up did and supports helped them even further)
7:05 one is def Reaper and the other might be Junkrat ... or Sombra again
THAT JUMPSCARE...10:27
8:11 lmao karq smiling knowing the community already know how to customize their own menu background
why no one ever mention a 6v6 game mode at least, like damn
the devs did not allow that question to be asked. every question had to be pre approved
MY HEART AT 10:27 😭😭😭
I fear their increased frequency of patch notes will just be to undo bad patches, like this season with Mauga, Sombra, and Symetra
For the map selections just choose your preferred map, not a map to vote out - sure you may still get some rage quits from people who don't always get their map but that can be tracked and added to the punishment for quitting matches.
What about loss forgiveness for when a team member leaves?
Will there be a mythic skin be in the battle pass or u have to buy it with the prisms
In short. When it’s ready
What is the theme on your left tattoo sleeve?
THIS is why i love KarQ
Omg being able to vote to pick map would be sooooo nice. The less I have to play lijiang, the better.
Love that damn intro music. Such a vibe haha
Man how tf did I find u here
They are pleased with the new rank system lmao
surely spotting a ximmer on console should be an easy task no? a mouse and keyboard can only move in one of eight directions, while a controller can move in 360
Which dps you guys think will get reworked? Personally I wouldn't be surprised if they go their way to rework both reaper & hanzo
it would be funny if they did yet another sym rework
i'm guessing reaper and widow
I'm pretty sure they mentioned they have been trying to change Reaper, though I forgot where
Reaper and Cassidy for sure
Reaper and Cass most likely.
A couple thoughts. With the rage quitting on the map voting system. Ban ‘em? Or give them the same penalties as leaving a game normally. Lame how there’s not going to be a menu customization. And he rly said cri about ximming bc it’s on console. Pc>console apparently🤷🏽♂️
Everyone talking about that jumpscare about what about that WERID hook at 4:30 ish
I definitely agree with tank feeling so much more stressful due to going 5v5. I used to play tank all the time in OW1 cuz I knew I had a second tank to back me up. Now everyone just blames tank so I don’t even queue up for it anymore. I probably had 50+ games as a dps and support each and like 2 games for tank last season
I was watching the whole video and 10:27 scared the shit out of me
I heard they were possibly looking at Reaper.
11:01 one way they could mitigate the rage quitting for not getting the map you want is to penalize their queue time by 3 min if they quit after a map they didn’t vote for was selected. This means players who got the map they wanted that DC can still queue again without penalty and the rage quitters are disincentivized. This might make people upset but they’re rage quitters anyways and need to take a break regardless bc they’re clearly tilted over something as simple as a map.
K I bet allot of people have seen this now considering the videos been out for an hour but if you pause at 6:36 you can see the Reese for vantage the support and a new tank that looks like bowser + scalier Godzilla + chespin final evo (the grass Pokémon starter in X&Y) idk it just look like a freaky lizard
he looks pretty big so he probably has lots of mobility or can heal himself
Ball needs flamethrowers and his ultimate should be a better version of the piledriver like a giant fireball slam with the mines
10:26 audio glitch made me flinch
i would love for dps role debuff only activate when you deal enough damage like 50 so that tanks wont get debuffed when they get tickled by tracer 78 meters away
Bet the two dps being reworked are junkrat and one of the shimada brothers
Okay imma be real, the free "Legendary" skin for the collab... doesn't feel like it's Legendary quality. Like looking at it, it looks like an epic
So did they forget about the trial? We are supposed to play venture early and the season gonna end in less than a month
3:45 - They mentioned that the last 3 seasons wouldn't be available i.e. if we're on Season 12 you would get up to Season 9 options.
7:05 - One of them is highly likely Reaper as they already mentioned a month or two ago about possibly reworking repear.
8:09 - You can already do this on Battlenet and choose any main menu load up screen you want in the Command Line Arguments there's a video on it.
They recently removed the custom main menu backgrounds with the command line. Now it just gives you a black screen for most of them
I am also delighted to play season 9, the swarming hackers in season 9 is stunning, I love them! Thank you for not paying any effort removing them, it’s getting better for hackers every single day!
Tiny overwatch is one of my favorite custom games. 😂 And I think by safe way to introduce bans, it might be like by introducing them in like an arcade style maybe? Like how they have arcade comp games and stuff.
