Overwatch 2 gamers have not been proud of the best way its ranked matches have labored since launch. Blizzard agree, it appears, though they don’t seem to be going to be reverting again to how issues had been in Overwatch 1. Instead they will be implementing modifications in season 3 and season 4 “geared toward creating extra readability within the system.”

The challenge is that there is a distinction between a participant’s rank – the general public tiers that fee gamers from Bronze to Grand Master – and the hidden ranking truly utilized in matchmaking. The result’s that gamers are often matchmade with different gamers who seem like a lot increased or decrease ranked, even when their precise ability stage makes them comparable.

“The new Ranked mode suffered from poor comprehension,” says a new blog post by Overwatch 2 game director Aaron Keller. “There was confusion around players’ real rank and how that translated to their skill level, difficulty forming groups with friends, and a negative impression of the matchmaker when players of different ranks were put in the same match (even if their skill levels were similar). We will be implementing some changes in S3 and quite a few more in S4 all aimed at creating more clarity in the system. More details on short-term changes and long-term vision will be coming soon.”

The identical publish outlines another suggestions they hope to deal with, together with gamers being unable to “earn the objects they need in a brief sufficient time period.” Overwatch 2 made the leap to free-to-play, which implies it requires extra grinding, or actual cash, to be able to unlock components that had been extra accesible within the first game. “We’ll be making a change in S3 that ought to tackle a few of these complaints,” says Keller.
