Nuova funzione replay su Overwatch! Buff, nerf e nuova modalità Assalto!
In molti l’hanno chiesta e finalmente è arrivata: da questo momento in poi, grazie all’introduzione di una nuova funzione, tutte le partite su Overwatch non andranno perse per sempre.
Che sia per far vedere qualche giocata o per analizzare una semplice partita, il nuovo tool di Blizzard permette di osservare le ultime 10 partite giocate in qualsiasi modalità, anche le custom. Sono escluse, ovviamente, training camp e tutorial.
Ma come funziona la nuova funzione? La nuova funzione si trova nel profilo personale e sono comprese nei replay diverse funzioni: possibilità di vedere il pov di un eroe (sia prima che terza persona), controllare la mappa muovendosi come uno spettatore, mettere dei segnalini ma anche delle novità quali rallentare o accelerare la velocità del replay (da 0,25x a 2x), inserire le icone degli eroi o addirittura inquadrare la mappa dall’alto come si vede far spesso in Overwatch League!
Tutti i comandi sono comunque utilizzabili premendo N.
Blizzard ha inoltre segnalato che ad ogni patch i 10 replay della nostra collezione verranno eliminati.
L’update del PTR è pesante circa 800MB.
Inoltre sono stati segnalati nuovi Buff/Nerf agli eroi e un nuovo sistema della mappe assalto…vediamo tutti i dettagli (poco sotto anche il video di Herc sulla questione).
Baptiste:
- Caricatore dei colpi curativi aumentato da 8 a 10
- Durata Ultimate aumentata da 8 a 10 secondi
Dva:
- Distanza coperta dalla matrice ridotta da 15 metri a 10 metri
McCree:
- Durata del rinculo ridotta da 0.5s a 0.4s
Orisa:
- La barriera è piazzabile senza interrompere la ricarica dell’arma primaria
Symmetra:
- Range d’azione del teleport aumentato da 1 metro a 1 metro e mezzo
Torbjorn:
- Danni dell’arma secondaria ridotti da 12,5 a 10,5 per colpo
Modalità Assalto:
- Ridotto tempo bonus nella conquista del primo punto: da 4 a 3 minuti. Ciò vuol dire che in totale il tempo a disposizione è di 7 minuti
- Ogni eroe morto subito dopo la conquista del punto A, spawna non dopo i 3.5 secondi

PATCH HIGHLIGHTS
New Feature: Replays
Experience your past Overwatch games from a whole new perspective with Replays. Replays allows you to watch your ten most recent matches from any vantage point. Whether you want a first-person, third-person, or bird’s-eye view, you can see it all with this tool. Hone your strategies by slowing down or speeding up the game to see exactly how a critical moment played out, get a better view of the action from above, or even turn off the UI completely.

HERO UPDATES
Baptiste
- Biotic Launcher
- Increased heal ammo from 10 to 12.
- Amplification Matrix
- Ultimate duration increased from 8 seconds to 10 seconds.
Developer Comments: Given the dual nature of Baptiste’s weapon, he ends up having to reload often. We’re increasing the amount of ammo he has to work with so he can get more firing time while healing. Similarly, increasing the duration of Amplification Matrix will allow allies more time to get into position to make use of it.
D.Va
- Defense Matrix
- Reduced length of Defense Matrix from 15 meters to 10 meters.
Developer Comments: Defense Matrix is a very powerful defensive ability and can often feel oppressive from far away. Reducing the range on it will require D.Va to position herself more carefully to take advantage of its effects.
McCree
- Peacekeeper
- Primary fire recovery reduced from 0.5 seconds to 0.4 seconds.
Developer Comments: On average, McCree’s damage output wasn’t quite making up for the relatively low mobility or utility in his kit. Reducing his weapon’s recovery time improves the potential damage output without affecting the number of successful shots to kill an enemy.
Orisa
- Protective Barrier
- Barrier can be deployed without interrupting reload.
Developer Comments: Orisa has one of the longest weapon reloads and interrupting it to deploy a new barrier felt too disruptive to her gameplay. This change allows her to reload as needed while still being able to protect herself and her team.
Symmetra
- Teleporter
- Teleporter interact range increased from 1 meter to 1.5 meters.
Developer Comments: This is primarily a quality of life improvement as it was possible to create a teleporter that Symmetra was unable to interact with unless she moved toward it.
Torbjörn
- Rivet Gun
- Secondary Fire damage per pellet reduced from 12.5 to 10.5 (105 dmg total per shot).
Developer Comments: The combined damage output of Torbjörn’s secondary fire with his Overload ability was too high given his recently increased survivability.
GAME MODE UPDATES
Assault
- Time awarded for capturing Point A on all Assault maps has been reduced from 4 minutes to 3 minutes.
- Upon losing Point A, any defenders that are dead, or that die shortly thereafter, will have a maximum respawn of 3.5 seconds.
Developer Comments: Assault match lengths are averaging higher than we’re happy with, particularly in Competitive where there are multiple rounds. We’re also concerned with how often Offense fully captures Point A and Point B. Reducing the round time from 8 to 7 minutes should address both these concerns, as less overall time rewards better Defense.
Additionally, sometimes Defenders fight late with good intentions at Point A and end up staggered from their team when A falls, leaving their team with uneven footing to defend a rush to B. In these situations, temporarily lowering the respawn time to get those Defenders back with their team should be a better match experience and doesn’t punish players so harshly for wanting to defend Point A.
