Altre modifiche in arrivo per D.Va, Mei, Sigma ed il Soldato76!
Attraverso una nuova pèatch pubblicata nel Reame Pubblico di Prova sono stati svelati dei cambiamenti e dei bilanciamenti scelti per alcuni specifici campioni di Overwatch.
Nello specifico, sono stati colpiti i Boosters di D.Va il cui cooldown è stato aumentato da 3 a 4 secondi (in pratica è stato ripristinato il valore che c’era prima dell’ultima patch sul live), e poi anche l’Ice Wall di MEI che vede il suo CD aumentare da 10 a 13 secondi; vengono poi cambiati anche il costo della ultimate di Sigma (che viene ridotto del 10%) ed il cooldown degli Helix Rockets del Soldato che passano da 8 a 6 secondi (cambiamento questo, che ne garantirà un maggiore utilizzo).
Insieme a queste novità, giunge poi anche la possibilità di condividere i replay, una funzione da sempre molto richiesta dagli utenti che trova oggi finalmente una sua strada nell’Overwatch giocato, ed una lunga lista di hotfixes e di cambiamenti generali che hanno riguardato sia il RealID che l’interfaccia di gioco.
Di seguito andiamo quindi a vedere tutti i dettagli, riportando le esatte note della patch diffuse dagli sviluppatori.
La patch
New Feature: Share Replays
Since the introduction of the replay system, players have consistently asked for the ability to share those replays. We’re excited to bring that functionality to you!
A replay is shared via an alphanumeric code typically 6 characters long. The code can be shared however you want: in game, on forums, over social media. Another player can input that code and watch your replay. Codes are valid until the next patch.
We have also made some improvements to the replay system.
- You can pin up to 10 replays to keep until the next patch. You can unpin a replay to make room for a different replay
- We track your 10 most recently imported replay codes. This allows you to watch the same imported replay again without retyping the code
- There is a new note field for each replay entry. Add descriptions or notes for yourself
We eagerly await your feedback on this feature.
General Updates
- In game friend requests will now only display in game once per session
- RealID friend requests will only show RealID names in game if you have recently played with that player
- The initial Assemble Heroes timer for games using the Assault, Hybrid, Control, and Payload game modes has been further reduced from 35 to 30 seconds
- In the Assault, Payload, and Hybrid game modes for Competitive Play, when both teams complete a round of offense and have more than 2 minutes of time bank then each team’s time bank is equally reduced until one of the teams has a 2 minutes remaining
- Example: If Team A completes a round of offense on Volskaya with 4:37 remaining in their time bank, and Team B completes their round on offense with 2:50 remaining, then 50 seconds is removed from each team’s timebank. This leaves the teams tied 2-2 and Team A with 3:47 remaining and Team B with 2:00 remaining
