What is this bullshit? Why the fuck is blizzard rolling out patches to the PC before they're ready for consoles? That's not fair and screws over console players.
>>
>>344220989

Real answer: Because Sony and Microsoft say so.

Meme answer: But you guys get the exclusive Torb nerf :^)
>>
PC players are beta testing to make sure things are ready for console players.
>>
>>344220989
sony and microsoft need to okay patches first, whereas blizzard releases them directly through battle net on pc. there's no middleman.
>>
>>344220989
Because console players are second class citizens, don't get it confused
>>
>>344220989

>console players
>>
>>344221167

So? Irregardless of the reason for delay, updates should be held until they are ready for all platforms.
>>
>>344220989
It's easier to patch PC games
>>
>>344220989
Blizzards home has always been PC. I'm actually surprised Overwatch made it to the consoles. They must need the money after WoW fell from grace.
>>
Reminder that console players are too stupid to take out STATIONARY targets like Torb's turrets.

I hope you like the pity patch
>>
>>344221276
Exactly this. Same reason the Minecraft One version is behind the pc in patches constantly
>>
>>344221360

The updates are ready. Sony and Microsoft are just giving you guys bonus delays. Thank them.

I wonder how bad Hanzo players are on consoles.

Why?

Blizzard doesn't specialize in console gaming. They are free to do whatever they want without asking permission from Sony or M$. Console gaming is a dictatorship, PC gaming is freedom.
Blizzard takes shit from no-one.

Because Consoles are peasants that need to be procted first by Sony and Microsoft so they check every patch and that takes some weeks.

They're not. A single day's of loot crate sales more than covers the patch fees.

why?

You bought the game, the game still functions, you weren't promised to get patches on the same day as PC.
