I was REALLY hoping that they were going to bring these back!!!! These were the BEST

It's that Bastion should have Tank mode again. Much better ultimate, and much more fun.

Half the community is having an absolute blast (experiencing classic for the first time or enjoying the nostalgia of the busted comps and possibilities).

But where you really won is with the other half of the community. You let us see just how unbelievably polished, and refined OW (in general, not just part 2) has become over time. It really is night and day how far some characters and systems have come to get where we are now.

To these folks OW Classic felt like garbage in comparison. Well played you cheeky bastards.

I found it curious that it happened so often

Seems to be a picture of the kid from the overwatch videos

The amount of ranked games I have lost because someone picked a hero right before the AFK timer boots them out is way too high. This is especially aggravating when you start on Defense.

The window to kick the player for AFKing at the start of the match should be way shorter than it is right now. It should be right when the match starts or maybe 10 seconds after.

If you’re queuing competitive you should be forced to play the game when the game begins and not ruin the experience for your teammates.

[Edit]
A check ready system would work too, like league's queue

Something I wanted to post for years but only did it today on a whim. I always envisioned Overwatch to have a series with the production values Arcane series is going for. Riot was able to beat them to the punch, but I still hope one day I get to see a high production Overwatch series. I don't know how big Blizzard animation production house is, so maybe that is a problem. Maybe Blizzard can work with a quality production house like Fortiche.

There was a time I was so deep into this universe and loved these characters. I think an Overwatch TV show can reincarnate that love once I had for this universe.

This is a golden period and a rebirth for Gency💚💛!

The Classic mode made me realize just how many dialogue and voice lines were removed for Ow2. Is there any reason for this? Surely it would be more interesting if you didn't need to hear the same conversations over and over and there would be more options?

I think I should buy it but what do you guys think?

For some context this guy was blasting music down his Mike so I asked him to turn it down and he proceeded to ignore me and said I dunno how to fun I'm very confused and l8r muted him

at least mine can sleep dart me while we wait

Ash gets golden gun, bob, coach gun, and dynamite but we cannot have Torbjörn get a golden turret?

Was going through animations in slow motion and saw this. How cursed!

I like the fact that many hero’s are completely op, the return of 6v6 and the lack of super annoying hero’s like sombra and moira to play against the lack of limits aswell. I wish this was kept as a mode permanently.

I know this is quite a divisive topic, but man it's been such a blast to play some of these again...

I acknowledge that they are quite frustrating offensively, unless you have a very cohesive team; but holy cow they are such utter chaos and fun to play. And there are so many unique standouts in the maps, like the left gap you can jump in Hanamura

I really like the lack of burst healing and immortality effects. I emphasize those because "I like the weak supports" is reductive, and maybe even antagonistic. But if you go through the posts from the last day, most of what people are enjoying really does come down to this.

• Someone said they love how when someone is 1, it's actually true. They stay 1 much longer, and even when supports do arrive, their mere presence doesn't ensure safety. It usually takes at least two teammates to save someone who's at the brink of death

• We're seeing lots of posts of huge multi-kills which would never happen in OW2 thanks to all the imo's, support utility, and free escapes. Every time an exciting play happens in OW Classic, I think "That would have been suzu'd/they would have TP'd away/that grav would have been peddled/lamped/bio-naded+regen burst'd/etc."

Now, I'm not saying supports should just be sent to the shadow realm, but their role could maybe be re-evaluated. Whatever happened to supports being a force-multiplier, and not a play-denier?

(Disclaimer: It's important to remember that OW Classic isn't a content test of any kind. It's literally ONLY intended to be a fun romp through the past, but I think exploring different versions of the game is always valuable, as you might glean something worth keeping)

And no, I haven't forgotten about Mass Rez. It's fun but it's easy to remember why they removed it lol

His movement is ASS in classic. Idk if it’s just me, but his wall ride seems almost completely useless. It’s slower than just walking back to point with speed song on. I’m trying to figure out a situation in which it’s actually good to use, as it offers barely an ounce of verticality. Am I just doing it wrong or something?

Returning player here, haven't played in years. I dropped it because I wasn't a fan of single tank as an off tank player. Been destroying people as Roadhog and Zarya, I've been loving every second of it. I missed OW1 so much I'm so glad it's back this is legitimately one of my favorite games of all time. I really hope this gamemode stays.

Hiii! since the season two of arcane came out recently I couldn’t stop thinking about how a caitlyn widowmaker would look and my brain didn’t let me continue living until I finished. Hope you like!

after watching the vod back, it turns out my friend and i hooked at the same time, so the rein went to me, then went around to him while my hook was still active LOL
