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.
Yes. These are the people that would insta lock DPS before role queue and just pig headedly refuse to entertain any other role. Wasn’t as bad for me personally because I main support, but having 5 DPS and me as lone support was an instant loss.
These people still exist and now they can all play with, and against each other.
