Overwatch 2 game director Aaron Keller has provided clarification regarding his recent blog post about “experiments” planned for season eight. In the post, Keller mentioned the team’s intention to try out new ideas to enhance gameplay, including “drastically reduced” spawn timers. However, Keller took to Twitter to clarify that these changes would be short-term experiments and not permanent alterations affecting all areas of the game, particularly competitive play.
Last week, Keller’s blog post sparked confusion among players who believed that shorter respawn timers would be implemented in the game, potentially impacting competitive play. However, Keller’s intention was to present hypothetical scenarios for experimentation rather than concrete plans.
While Keller did not elaborate on other potential experiments, he assured players that any experimental features introduced to the game would be clearly indicated to avoid confusion.
