For years this game mode has been broken, even worse with the release in Overwatch 2. Why? I'll tell you everything, and ways you can work around it; even though there isn't much.

I have such a love hate relationship with this game mode. I grinded the hell out of it, peaked at around top 20 mostly solo queue as a striker, aiming to go for number 1, but then 2020 came and shut that down completely. I still really like this game mode, but it's just unplayable. Summer Games 2023. I didn't plan to make any type of video, I was working on other projects. After a day or two, I decided to play one game of Lucioball. Dear god, I got so unbelievably frustrated. I kept getting spawned in goal and I just could not do a single thing, nobody really understands this as much as I do; Sure, I can tell them: "I got 70 ping, I can't do anything" but in no way they will understand, why would they? To them, I'm just blaming lag, and that's kinda silly. I still won the game, but I left it really unhappy. Silently frustrated for about a day, I said screw it, I'm gonna make a video about it. Made out of spite, I still think it came out pretty good. Massive improvement from making a video in 7 months, this one took me less than 7 days! Now with that out of the way, I can only hope you enjoy the video! :)

good video and a genius solution! my theory regarding the stationary ball at 0:25 is once the ball becomes motionless, it falls asleep and stops simulating physics (ordinary props in other maps exhibit this behavior -- you can even make props fall asleep in mid-air). conceptually, there's nothing wrong with this system. the problem is that soundwave seemingly does not send an impulse to re-awaken the ball, so the only way to make the ball move is with a melee attack or a physical touch.

Glad you enjoyed! :D Makes sense, I haven't messed around with props in the normal game so that's good to know. Melee usually doesn't awaken the ball either though, you mostly had to walk into it to make it work again. There's also rare moments where it doesn't work for a few hits but then suddenly starts working even if you don't bump into it. It's odd.

I remember the first year working great. But then the no-regs began, even when I was down to around 23 ping. It's basically the reason I gave up on that mode. I really don't like inconsistencies like that, when it has such a big impact on the games win/loss. Even in the case of just having to delay your shot, if your ping fluctuates a lot or sometimes spike you basically have to guess when to boop. Playing as a goalie it can be especially frustrating as you are very often dealing with fast-moving balls coming straight at you and missing will cost you a point to the opponent team. I think my sulution at the time was to both boop and punch with a slight delay in between, to increase the odds of it actually registering the hit, but it was still annoying and wouldn't always work. As I never played the mode since the first few years, It's hard for me to imagine how bad it feels now.

I remember year 1; I really liked to play Goalie, it was my best position; extremely rarely I would let through any shots. As time went on I moved on to being a Striker cause I wasn't as good anymore. Back then, I had no idea, but these days I know - for some reason back then I had 50~ ping or less, upcoming years I averaged like 90 for some reason. Everything went more or less great until 2020 when it just completely broke. My friend has around 35~ ping and the ball sometimes no-regs, but for me it just never hits at all. I could still solo trickshot as a Striker and stuff and sometimes make it work but anything requiring interceptions like being a Goalie and/or trying to counter-boop at any point just doesn't work at all; which for high level play is basically 100% required. I completely gave up trying to play competitively, when back then even if I had a disadvantage I could still overpower everyone in theory, but these days the handicap is so large that even if I play like a top 1 player I'll probably get beaten by diamonds or something. It's not fun anymore, just pure annoyance. The punch after booping used to be a common strategy(probably still is, its just boop cooldown is so tiny now), especially for those needed to counter-boop or something like that. If they counter your counter, you have another chance. It also can definitely be used just in case you miss(or no-reg) your boop, just to be safe, but yeah, it didn't always work. It's pretty bad these days. My friend reports the boops not registering more often this year, his latency is more or less the same. I climbed to around top 20 somewhat casually with him being the goalie back then, so I'm positive he's right. It's unfortunate, really.

I remember the time when I was on the ending of your 24-hour stream, which you deleted for some reason. You spent so much time on this game just for it to betray you. I already knew that OW2 would be a disaster for me. I wrote a post on the OW2 beta feedback forum(still is the most liked post of the thread), criticising basically everything in the beta. For me the death of the game was the release of 5v5 and everything with it, the cancellation of PvE was just a Requiem for something already dead. But for you this scam is the death and the requiem at the same time. I left OW and got back to chess. Keeping playing OW is disrespectful for me, and much more for you.

I never deleted the streams, there is a thing/problem with KZfaq that if a stream is longer than 12 hours it wont be archived, which I did not know at the time. I don't know if it's still a thing but that's why it shows up as unavailable, it was like that ever since the end of the stream. Yeah, OW2 is just a disaster. I'm putting out the things that I wanted and/or have been bothering me for a long time just to get it over with, to at least not waste everything completely. Sure, I'll check out the PvE that is coming, but I definitely wont stick around for nearly as long as I did. Not after everything. Best of luck with your future endeavours, friend!

It really shouldn't be like this. You may have noticed that you might even hear an "impact" sound effect when you boop/punch, signaling that you hit it, but it doesn't do anything. Something is definitely not working properly.

From what little I've seen, it is very similar and I wouldn't be surprised if it has the same exact problem. The ball is mostly slower in Volleyball though, so it's not that apparent. I can confirm that if the ball is very fast I have not been able to hit it, even if you hear the hit sound effect; just like in Lucioball.

Yep. If I get an east server I will most likely just quit the game. I have around 80 ping and the game is impossible to play, especially in goal. I was in a similar situation as you, trying to grind for top 10 again, but since 80% of people in top 100 are east, it's basically impossible. I stopped playing.

i wish blizzard cared about lucioball as much as the dedicated lucio ball players do, not having Copa last year absolutely ruined the gamemode even when the hit register bug got fixed. me and 2 of my friends were all top 500 lucio ball during copa and we got matched against teams that were playing the gamemode for the first time because quickplay lucio ball just simply doesnt have skill based match making, which made for extremely boring games for both teams.

I wish blizzard cared more about a lot of things ;-; Was it actually fixed though? I'm pretty sure I recall playing a match and still was unable to play properly, but I could be wrong. I know exactly what you mean with quickplay lucioball. I was a top striker and I queued with a top goalie, these games were completely one-sided like 99% of the time lol

​@@LeonOwO Can't speak for low ping players but for me the hit reg was always good, I could play with 400 ping and it would work, I just had to imagine a 400ms delay so I'd have to play in the future lmao. Times it would seem there was no registration was just a mistake of some kind. The way it is now, there's basically nothing I can do, it will just not work whatever time I boop. Low ping always kept working as much as I saw. The year it broke (forgot which it was) it simply made it as your ping increases, it started getting less likely your boop would work. 40 seemed to roughly be the break point, though my friend still had very obvious no regs.

This solution is genius, would it be possible to make a workshop gamemode that uses it for people to test in the next event that allows lb in customs? The lucioball community is still active (despite its dwindling population) and we've been running makeshift copa ladders using a bot to queue and give SR ratings in the top 500 discords for both NA and EU (and maybe asia?) A workshop mode that allows people to actually play the game might breathe some more life into the community until either blizzard decides its worth giving some TLC or we all grow too old to play. I love this game too much to just watch it die 💔
@CarrierArcnight
@CarrierArcnight Жыл бұрын
I could try to optimize it a bit for next time. The way it works right now is the dummy bot falls behind depending on your ping. So for example, if you have 100ms, if you're moving straight ahead, the dummy bot will be 100ms worth of distance/time behind you. Also, if you boop, it takes 100ms for him to boop. I don't think it's possible to fix this but I could try. But again, like I mentioned, it's better than having nothing work at all.
