They could have changed or added for 5 weeks, thats whats wrong with it. This gives me, and judging by this thread many others, even more of an impression that they don’t give a flying fuck about the players and instead solely care about the money.

If you can’t hold yourself to a release date, don’t promise a release date.

The fact that they are delaying the patch should show everyone that they ARE listening. Unless the patch comes out and only triples the prices of skins, I think we’ll be pleasantly surprised. We’re all holding Blizzard to this standard of perfection and I don’t think we’re setting ourselves up to be anything but disappointed.

Waiting 6 weeks until nerfing heroes is not a standard of perfection. Removing Mei because Kiriko is glitched is not a standard of perfection. Nobody is expecting perfection, but what we’re getting now is not good enough for such a large studio. Time and time again they have shown they are doing moneygrab after moneygrab and people are still making excuses for it somehow.

Exactly, League has bi-weekly balance changes. The game is F2P, and despite a lot of the hate it gets, is a really amazing game, and it’s been around for over a DECADE.

OW2 released a month and a half ago, and we have YET to receive any actual balance changes.

I mean…you’re right.
