Overwatch: Der Patch 1.42.0.0 brachte Änderungen an den Saisons mit sich

Im Verlauf der Nacht von gestern auf heute haben die für die fortlaufende Entwicklung von neuen Inhalten für Overwatch 1 zuständigen Mitarbeiter von Blizzard Entertainment überraschenderweise den neuen Patch 1.42.0.0 veröffentlicht, der mittlerweile in allen Teilen der Welt aktiv sein sollte. Den gleichzeitig damit auf der offiziellen Communityseite von Overwatch aufgetauchten Patchnotes zu diesem Content Update zufolge beinhaltete dieser neue Patch unter anderem einige wenige Spielbalanceänderungen an ausgewählten Helden, eine Reihe von notwendigen Fehlerbehebungen, eine neue Funktion zum Verwenden der Polling Rate der eigenen Maus und einige Neuerungen für den Workshop. Zusätzlich dazu haben die Entwickler den neuen Patch 1.42.0.0 auch noch dafür genutzt, um eine Reihe von Änderungen an den Saisons für den gewerteten Spielmodus durchzuführen. Die erste dieser Anpassungen hat dabei dann dafür gesorgt, dass der Starttermin der Saisons von dem 01. Tag jedes zweiten Monats auf den ersten Donnerstag jedes zweiten Monats verschoben wurde. Des Weiteren wollen die Entwickler die zukünftigen Saisons immer etwas später am Tag starten, weil die dann mehr Mitarbeiter für möglicherweise auftretende Probleme abgestellt werden können. Die letzte Neuerung für die Saisons ist ein rotierender Map-Pool, der sich mit jeder Saisons ein wenig ändern wird. Der erste Pool dieser Art beinhaltet 12 verschiedene Spielfelder, die sich auf jeweils 3 verschiedenen Karten pro Spielmodus aufteilen. Weitere Informationen zu diesem Patch und den Änderungen findet ihr in den folgenden Patchnotes.     Overwatch Retail Patch Notes – November 5, 2019 GENERAL UPDATES New Gameplay Option: High Precision Mouse Input Enabling this option will allow Overwatch to use your mouse’s native polling rate when determining exactly where to shoot.

We will also be starting the season later in the day to better correspond with developer availability during the day. Season 19 now starts on November 7, at 18:00 UTC (10:00 PST, 13:00 EST). We will also be introducing a rotating, seasonal Map Pool to competitive play starting with Season 19. The initial map pool for Season 19 has 12 maps, with 3 of each game mode. Future competitive seasons will see maps rotating in and out of the pool, providing each season with a different experience and identity. Information about the current maps available in the map pool is available by opening the information panel of the Competitive Play card.   Season 19 Map Pool: Assault: Hanamura, Temple of Anubis, Volskaya Industries Hybrid: Hollywood, King’s Row, Eichenwald Control: Nepal, Lijiang Tower, Busan Escort: Dorado, Watchpoint: Gibraltar, Havana     WORKSHOP UPDATES New Workshop Features: Variable Renaming Increased number of allowed variables up to 128 Autosave Preset   New Workshop Values: Custom String All Tank Heroes All Support Heroes All Damage Heroes Map Current Map     HERO UPDATES General Mei’s Icewall, Baptiste’s Immortality Field, and Sigma’s Gravitic Flux will now more heavily prefer edges over placing as far away as possible   Baptiste Biotic Launcher Recovery decreased from 0.45 to 0.36 seconds Random spread removed Damage falloff range now begins at 25 meters, up from 20   Torbjörn Molten Core Cost reduced 10%     BUG FIXES General Fixed a bug that made it not possible to bind Left-Click to forward movement An appropriate error now appears when trying to accept a friend request after you have reached your limit Fixed a bug with spectating that caused “Next Player” and “Previous Player” controls to be reversed when using a controller Fixed a bug where sometimes explosion effects would not play for projectiles (like Pharah Rockets or Junkrat Grenades)   Workshop Fixed an issue preventing the Balanced Mystery Heroes preset from including Sigma Fixed issues preventing Dummy Bots from being used in Elimination Fixed an issue preventing the Communicate action from working on Dummy Bots “Is Dummy Bot” now returns the correct value when given an argument other than “Event Player” Fixed an issue preventing ray casts from colliding with certain objects Fixed issues with certain colors not working properly with HUD Text, In-World Text, and Create Icon Fixed an issue preventing Set Objective Description from working Fixed some discrepancies with Point Capture Percentage between certain modes Fixed an issue preventing rules from being properly disabled if the player target was a hero Fixed an issue preventing Soldier: 76 dummy bots from being able to Sprint Fixed an issue preventing null entities returned from Ray Cast Hit Player from being equivalent to null Fixed an issue preventing Disallow Button from disabling the Interact Button Fixed a bug where accessing other menus while in the Workshop caused any recent unsaved changes to be lost   Maps Volskaya – Removed a gap in the walls near point B that allowed D.Va bombs to kill players behind walls Nepal: Sanctum – Removed a tiny gap in the windows near the capture point on Nepal: Sanctum that allowed D.Va bombs to kill players behind walls   Heroes Ana Fixed a bug that caused Ana’s legs to twitch when her Pharaoh skin is equipped Fixed a bug where the syringe would be visually missing in her Sleep Dart pistol after the first use   Doomfist Fixed a bug where Seismic Slam’s damage indicator was overlapping the reticle if a custom reticle was being used   D.Va Fixed a bug that could cause the wrong icon to display in the kill feed when D.Va denies an enemy’s ultimate with her Defense Matrix   Moira Fixed a bug that could cause Moira’s Right-Click sound to be behind you rather than in front   Roadhog Fixed a bug where Chain Hook could sometimes incorrectly connect with Symmetra’s Teleporter, Ashe’s Dynamite, and Junkrat’s Steel Trap and Concussion Mine   Sombra Fixed a bug where Sombra rarely would not properly translocate to a payload       (via)
