Once a team has captured the first point, they unlock a spawn room closer to it. The problem lies in the 5v5 set-up, which makes it tougher to turn fights around when you’re down a player, and the nature of the mode. The team that reaches the final checkpoint, or which makes the most amount of progress, wins. Push is a good idea in theory, as each team gathers around a robot that must be accompanied to different points on the map. Circuit Royal, Midtown and Colosseo are more symmetrical as a whole, which makes sense for the latter two as they’re built with the new mode Push in mind. New Queen Street’s metro rail car and streets in Point A along with its overpass and construction in Point B offer their own unique ways to set up as well. They possess more flanking routes along with notable high-ground positions (which can be assailed in different ways). You may still get the pitched fights at Point B of Dorado and Gibraltar but teams seem to cruise through more often than not.īy comparison, the new maps like Midtown, Circuit Royal, New Queen Street and Colosseo feel much more attuned for 5v5. However, the fights can be shorter or longer depending on how fundamentally your team understands their roles (along with the order they get picked). Watchpoint Gibraltar, Lijiang Tower, Dorado and Ilios – which now have differing times of days to give them some useless spice – are pretty much the same as in Overwatch 1. This probably won’t surprise you but 5v5 also feels incredibly weird on the old maps. Overall though, making comebacks when you’re a player down is much more difficult in Overwatch 2. Playing as a Tank definitely allows for impacting the game more yet the amount of responsibility is higher – you can’t just leave your team and go on random flanks any more, Roadhog. Overall, 5v5 didn’t seem like an earth-shattering change at first but it’s clearly shifted the flow of the game. Some feel that the game has become much more FPS-heavy, which isn’t too far off in some instances.
This has led to a strategy where you’re better off ignoring the Tank, killing the Supports first and then mopping up everyone else, though obviously you’ll need coordination with your teammates. However, it’s also created a scenario where most Tanks are super-powerful and can not die, both due to their kits and their Supports. It has resulted in quick games, one where each team member’s importance is amplified beyond the original game.
Kind of a lost cause when you get picked and are snowballed. Incredibly fun when you get a pick and begin the snowball. Here are our nine biggest takeaways.įast-paced. The results are interesting, especially if you’re a forever Gold, sometimes Plat player like myself. Focused on PvP, it introduces a new hero in Sojourn four new maps, two of them being designed for the new Push mode several reworks to established heroes like Bastion, Doomfist, Orisa and Sombra and above all else, the removal of one Tank for 5v5. After a lack of information, reduced support for Overwatch 1 and splitting the PvE and PvP components, the first closed beta for Overwatch 2 is finally here.
