OVERWATCH 2 QUICK PLAY: HACKED – JANUARY 12, 2024
LET’S HACK INTO QUICK PLAY
¡Hola amigos! This is Sombra. I was a little bored and figured we should have some fun this weekend. ¿Qué te parece? So, I decided to hack into the game and change the rules of Quick Play to make things more… interesting for a little while. I call it: “Quick Play: Hacked!”
QUICKER PLAY
For my first hack, I thought we could use a little change of pace. “Quick Play?” Why not “Quicker Play!” Faster Respawns, less time on the clock, and faster capture and payload movement speeds. Think you can keep up? BOOP!
- Respawning times are now 75% of their original time.
- Payloads in Escort and Hybrid maps will move 60% faster.
- Taking control of the Objective Point in Hybrid is 40% faster than normal.
- Taking control of the objective point in Control is 40% faster than normal, and scoring the capture progress percentage is 80% faster.
- Taking control of the objective point in Flashpoint is 20% faster than normal, and scoring the capture progress percentage is 40% faster.
- When you play an Escort, Hybrid, or Push map, the initial match time has been reduced to 70% of the original time, and any time extensions are also reduced to 70% of the total time added.
- These changes only apply to all players who play in Role Queue and Open Queue Quick Play modes during the duration of the event and will return to normal after January 14. Competitive Play and Arcade modes are not affected by these changes.
