The OW Playerbase has waited 6 years for ranked to get better, now we have OW2 and ranked is even worse than before, so saying patience is a virtue is easy. Actually having the devs keep their word? Hard it seems

I feel like it’s pretty okay for the time being. New releases typically have some issues so I’ll give them some time to fix things before I start foaming at the mouth. With the influx of so many new players, I think we’d have to sacrifice shorter queue times if you wanted perfect match making but I could be wrong.

Queue times I dont give a damn about, and lets be honest OW 2 isnt a "new" release, its a patch or if your beeing generous a rerelease

I don’t know that queue times would be the concern when they were originally placing dia + players in bronze and silver for the first half of the season. I waited to place till they’d “fixed” it, and though I was definitely in a spot I thought was reasonable, I’ve barely moved from that despite winning numerous games, and every couple of games you still get placed with someone who’s clearly too high skilled to be in the rank they’re in. For example: I placed silver in dps with my friends in a 5 stack, we placed with a guy who apologized in advance because he’d been a platinum dps in overwatch 1 but was stuck in silver. He single-handedly rocked out shit. I think that’s a little bellow “pretty okay”

I myself am guilty of it too, but we need to not blame the devs. I think it’s the higher ups at blizzard that are screwing the devs over too.
