Blizzard has been trying its best to strike back against Marvel Rivals and has brought tons of new additions, weapons, and collaborations in its hero-shooter. Thanks to all these updates, the Overwatch 2 player base is finally growing again, and Blizzard has plans to continue this momentum. Unfortunately, another controversy has emerged in the community as players are now accusing Blizzard of outright gaslighting them. Overwatch 2 fans call out Blizzard for gaslighting tactics If you head over to Overwatch‘s unofficial This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up for Moida and navigate to the section mentioning her ultimate, Coalescene, you’ll notice something. There’s a “miss forgiveness” mechanic to the ultimate. What this means is that if the healing beam doesn’t reach any targets for a short time, its healing output increases by 50%. This only applies to healing and not the damage dealt by Coalescene. It’s a cool mechanic, but there’s one issue: no one knows about its existence. User KaraTheAndroidd has taken to This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up and stated that even though they’ve consistently followed all patch notes and developer updates, they still didn’t know about this quirk of Moira’s ultimate. Even user This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up , who’s gone through “every patch notes,” has never seen anything about Moira’s healing output increase if the ultimate doesn’t reach any targets. According to them, even creators such as Arx_UK, who are professional Moira mains, have never mentioned such a mechanic. This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up 2 desperately needs official hero stats shown in-game. (Image via Blizzard) However, user This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up didn’t have any of these shenanigans and decided to test the mechanic out in the workshop. They found that the information was actually “true,” and Moira’s healing jumps when she misses any ally. It’s mind-boggling to think that even though the hero-shooter has been around for years, people still don’t know about such subtle mechanics. As user This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up says, this is why Overwatch 2 needs to have “proper hero information in game.” Let’s hope Blizzard can stop keeping players in the dark about their favorite heroes. It’s time to give us official stats for all heroes; there’s no reason to be allergic to showing numbers. Overwatch 2 director responds to Stadium mode issues This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up While it’s unknown if Blizzard will ever give us official in-game numbers for Overwatch 2 heroes, the developer is at least ready to handle all the issues within the Stadium mode. One of the biggest additions in Overwatch 2‘s Season 16 was the Stadium mode. It’s a permanent new mode that puts two 5-player teams against each other in a round-based format. Each match brings a number of familiar game modes, such as Push, Control, and Clash. Every round in the Stadium mode doesn’t last that long, but a full seven-round game can go for a longer duration compared to a typical match in Overwatch 2. Due to this, we’re seeing a massive leaver issue. There’s a high leaver rate among players. Overwatch 2 game director Aaron Keller is This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up of this issue. According to him, the majority of the players leaving the match are particularly new to the hero-shooter. Such lengthy games might be too much for beginners. As Stadium is still new in Overwatch 2, Blizzard expects the leaver rate to drop and settle down eventually. If that’s not the case, we’re likely to see the developer implement some changes.
