Not worse at the game, but worse as people?
Sometimes I go on a loss streak on my role, but wanna keep playing and not feel so punished because I wasn’t having the sweatiest DPS game of all time. The obvious answer is to switch to Quick Play, and I get that, but as someone who didn’t start playing competitive until I was well past 500 hours deep into Overwatch, I’ve been playing more comp to work on becoming more comfortable with competitive in prep for the season 9 changes.
All that to say, on four separate occasions I’ve joined the open queue lobby and been needlessly insulted; just absolutely flamed.
Why does it feel like Open Queue people are so angry at everyone about everything?
Even in games where I switch when I’m asked to, or have the most elims or low deaths or what have you, people are just throwing insults at me or whoever else.
That’s totally fair. I imagine on console it might just be inconvenient enough to type things into text chat that people just don’t think it’s worth it. 😅
