“Welcome to the APOCALYPSE!” A Junkrat & Roadhog Netflix Series.

So I was watching the Junkrat and Roadhog short “Junkertown: The Plan” again the other day and thought to myself, self, “I would watch this if it was an actual show,” as I think every time I re-watch the video. So I thought we should start a petition to let Activision/Blizzard know that it’s not just me but everyone agrees this should be a thing. It could be a limited series or multi season show and it could be about just them stealing stuff or hanging out in Australia or how they cross paths with several of the other heroes of Overwatch that we know currently. Let’s be honest there are a lot of good characters in Overwatch but these two have the most personality between them and could really get into some hilarious hi-jinks. They currently have their own lego set so it could be a lego series as well. XD

Anyway that’s my totally non-committal pitch for the show. I mean come on it would be awseome.

“Everythings coming up explodey!” Junkrat.

Overwatch 2 will feature Tesla Cybertruck in vehicle missions.

Elon Musk unveiled the Tesla Cybertruck to the world yesterday. Today we get more news in a dramatic turn towards video game advertising as Blizzard will feature the Cybertruck in an Overwatch 2 mission that will involve some kind of new driving mechanic.

Elon was vocal on twitter about playing Overwatch when it first released, unreliable sources, say this was a good idea and Blizzard gets hella advertising dollars out of the deal.

There was no comment from the Ford PR team as they are probably upset and crying they didn’t choose one of their cars to be in game. Ford is a sponsor of Overwatch League.

Another unreliable source tells us that the dev team isn’t excited about adding a vehicle into the game but they do what they are told.

This announcement comes just as Jeff Kaplan said they had no plans to add vehicle modes into the game.

This is a totally fake news report.

Overwatch 2 will have a special Top 500 Ranked Game Mode

A new development in the news for Overwatch 2 today as we find out that it will have a special game mode for Top 500 Competitive Ranked Players.

“One you reach Top 500 status on Competitve it unlocks a special ranked mode,” an unidentifiable Blizzard employee named Heff Laplan says. “This mode will be updated daily and will fulfill any complaints any of the Top 500 players have about the game.” Heff goes on to make reference about the current Orb-gate controversy and says, “things like the Moira orb would be changed based on Top 500 feedback alone because no one really cares about sub 4k ranked players opinion anyway.”

This new “division” of the player base could benefit everyone bc plebs don’t want to play with Pro Overwatch League players and OWL players don’t have to go to jail for trash talking to a 10 year old.

Overwatch 2

Playoverwatch.com press release

STAND TOGETHER

The nations of the earth are under assault. As the omnic forces of Null Sector launch a barrage of surprise attacks around the world, the planet’s governments and militaries prove quickly outmatched—and the remnants of the fearless strike force once known as Overwatch rally to make a valiant stand.  Now the world’s heroes must each decide whether to answer the call to reemerge, reunite, and serve as a beacon of hope in a new era of crisis.

 

Overwatch 2 is the globe-spanning sequel to Blizzard Entertainment’s acclaimed team-based game, building upon theoriginal’s battle-honed foundation and carrying forwardeverything players have earned into a new era of epic competition and team play. In addition to clashing against rivals in PvP modes, players will explore the Overwatch universe firsthand in whole new ways in fully cooperative missions that challenge the world’s heroes to team up, power up, and take on an overwhelming outbreak of threats around the globe.

HEROES RISE AND VILLAINS EMERGE IN 
COOP MISSIONS

Experience the advent of a new Overwatch as Winston, Tracer, and other members of the original Overwatch join forces with a newgeneration of heroes in action-packed, cooperative Story Missions. Players will take an active role in the next chapter of the Overwatch saga as it unfolds through a series of intense, high-stakes 4-player missions, taking control of different sets of heroes as they fight to defend the world from Null Sector, uncover the motives behind the omnic attacks, and confront rising new threats around the globe.

The battle continues in Hero Missions, where heroes are called upon to go beyond their limits as they deploy across the world, defending cities against robot invasions, taking on elite Talonagents, and battling the villainous forces laying siege to the world.In this highly replayable mode, players can level up their heroes and earn powerful customization options that supercharge their abilities, granting the extra edge they need to overcome the odds. Choose whether you want Reinhardt’s Fire Strike to ignite nearby enemies, or modify his hammer to swing with increasingly blazingspeed; modify Mei’s Endothermic Blaster so frozen foes take more damage and shatter into deadly ice shards; and more.

A NEW ERA OF EPIC COMPETITION

Overwatch 2 represents the beginning of a new era for Overwatch’s world-renowned competitive 6v6 play. In addition to carrying forward all of the original game’s heroes, maps, and modes—as well as existing Overwatch players’ accomplishments and loot collections—Overwatch 2 adds multiple new playable heroes to the ever-growing roster, widens the scope of the world with even more maps and locations, and adds a new Push match type in whichtwo teams compete to guide a robot to their side’s objective. The sequel also introduces an enhanced UI, along with visual and engine upgrades that bring Earth’s battlefields and your favorite heroes to life in greater detail. 

 

Overwatch 2 also renews Blizzard’s commitment to continue supporting the existing Overwatch community. Current Overwatch players will battle side-by-side with Overwatch 2players in PvP multiplayer. In addition, current Overwatch players will be able to play Overwatch 2 heroes and maps, ensuring the core PvP experience remains dynamic and vital for today’s community in the Overwatch 2 era.

All you need to know about Overwatch 2 (so far)

Blizzcon will be upon us this Friday November 1st. Until that time all we can do is wonder if Blizzard Entertainment and Papa Jeff Kaplan is going to drop some fresh goodness on us the likes we’ve never seen before. October 26 and 27 was a very busy day for potential Overwatch 2 leaks. But were they leaks or something else and for that we will wait and see.

What we can do now is speculate the crap out of Overwatch 2, why you ask, because it’s fun so don’t even @ me cause lets get into what we think we know.

October 17 @metro_ow dropped a bunch of hints as to what he “heard” about Overwatch 2.

Then Saturday October 27 happened and we got Tracer 2.0


Then after that happened and we got a whole mess of tweets from everywhere including official ESPN dropping bombs on us.

What we think we know about Overwatch 2!

What we think we know about Overwatch 2!

  • It will be a new standalone game
  • It could be F2P (free to play) like Fortnite and League of Legends
  • PvE mode (this will be the new 4 player story mode)
  • PvP mode (standard ported from Overwatch 1 with a potential new game mode called push)
  • New skill tree based character system (not sure what mode it goes with yet)
  • Existing heroes get new / updated looks
  • It will feature a new game engine
  • Echo could be the first new Overwatch 2 hero
  • There will be a leveling system
  • There will be no transferring of earned loot from Overwatch to Overwatch 2

WHY Overwatch 2 tho?

This is where we get into the real speculation of things. I mean for all purposes Overwatch is working fine just keep updating the game like they said when it first came out…
Nah………..
So here’s a list of what we know.

  • Activision
    • Activision LOVES repackaging the same game until we all want to vomit and Overwatch has the potential of that CoD (Call of Duty) “resell-ability”.
  • Problems with LOOTBOXES!
    • Some countries have outright banned the use of in-game lootboxes and how is Overwatch supposed to continue to carry a game based on future lootbox sales if they can’t use them to make money. Lots of other games including CoD have adopted the Fortnite “BattlePass” Philosophy so expect there to be some kind of season pass option.
  • Player base.
    • Gamers get tired of playing the same game with the same events over and over you loose your once heafty player base if you crank out the same stuff but with new cosmetics. Hence Fortnite player base has been cut in half over the past few months and Chapter 2 just brings the same game with a new map?
  • Archives Missions Event
    • Blizz told us several times that Archives was there largest player “return” each year so it would only make sense to capitalize on a PvE mode.
    • Not everyone likes PvP modes this would open up a potential new player base
  • LORE
    • We have been promised more story since the game released and well ok this is just my way of saying I want more story! lol
  • Other junk-rats?
    • I’m sure there’s some other stuff like developer stuff that I’m not thinking about but I mean come on I’m a graphics and marketing guy.

Welp that’s all for now until November 1st when we see what’s up (or not up for real).

Thanks for reading
