Overwatch gamers will simply have to attend for his or her new favorite robotic pal.
Overwatch followers had anticipated new hero Orisa to go stay this week, following the sample of earlier character reveals – however she most likely received’t.
Writing on the Overwatch boards on Battle.net, recreation director Jeff Kaplan mentioned Orisa wants to remain within the oven for a bit longer than ordinary.
“We’re leaving Orisa on the PTR for a little while. We’re getting great feedback and fixing a lot of issues,” he wrote.
“I know this feels a little longer than other PTR periods, but we think it will be for the better. We know how anxious you all are to have Orisa join your ranks… and she will soon… but most likely she will go live later in the month rather than this early.”
The latest Overwatch PTR build includes changes to Orisa from her preliminary configuration, in addition to an overhaul to Ana. It’s attention-grabbing to see a brand new character be iterated on publicly earlier than going stay.
While some console followers are pissed off with how lengthy it takes for brand new content material to achieve them (as are we all), it actually looks as if Overwatch steadiness adjustments might do with a bit extra testing than they’ve had not too long ago; see Bastion, for instance.
Some critics reckon the Overwatch PTR isn’t doing its job, though it appears like not many Overwatch players use the PTR, which should exacerbate the issue.
So it’s not terribly shocking that Overwatch PTR classes might final slightly longer these days – and hopefully the top end result might be price it.
