Here are some tips to improve your gameplay and maximize your Overwatch 2 Closed Beta testing experience:
• Focus on one or two heroes that you enjoy playing the most and get really good at them. Mastering a small subset of heroes will allow you to provide more valuable feedback on balance and gameplay.
• Make sure to try out both the new 5v5 mode and Push as these are major changes coming to Overwatch 2. Note any issues, bugs, or balance concerns you encounter while playing these modes.
• Take time to experiment with the new heroes like Sojourn, Junker Queen and Kiriko. Note their strengths, weaknesses and any interactions that feel unbalanced.
• Pay close attention to any new maps, modes, and gameplay changes to identify bugs, issues with level geometry, and balance concerns.
• Communicate actively with your teammates! Call out enemy locations, ultimates used, flankers, low health enemies, and strategy. Teamwork and coordination are extremely important.
• Turn on character outlines to help distinguish enemies from allies in the heat of battle.
• Adjust sensitivity settings to what feels comfortable for you. Higher sensitivity allows for quicker reactions but can make precise aiming more difficult. Find a good balance.
• Try out different crosshairs and reticle settings to determine what provides the clearest vision and target acquisition for each hero you play.
• Provide as much detail as possible when submitting any bugs you encounter to ensure developers can recreate and fix the issues properly. Include things like level, hero, ability, and what exactly triggered the bug.
With a mix of hero mastery, map awareness, communication, proper settings, and detailed bug reporting, you’ll be in a great position to provide high value feedback during the Overwatch 2 Closed Beta!
