[2019] Introducing the Workshop | Overwatch | Overwatch Dev Tracker

6s	The workshop is an extension
8s	to the custom game system that was already in place.
10s	It allows you to change the very rules of Overwatch itself.
14s	You can change weapons, abilities,
16s	movement options, gravity speed, camera you name it.
20s	For instance, you cold make it so that every time Torbjörn shoots someone
24s	they are frozen.
28s	You can change the way that time scales
30s	based on how many players are left alive.
33s	I've been absolutely floored by some of the stuff players come up with.
37s	And there are a ton of really crazy game modes out there.
40s	I saw a side-view version of Overwatch, where it's a brawling game mode
45s	and where they fight each other as Doomfist
47s	and try to knock each other off the map.
49s	One of the really cool things I saw online
51s	was a magnet attached to the payload that pulls in all the players
55s	and make sure that they are doing their job.
58s	Wow, this is so cool, this is something our players did
60s	that we had never thought of.
62s	So much potential here
63s	and we are so excited to see what comes next.
65s	The reason why we build the workshop, is because we felt like
69s	fans had so much to offer in terms of gameplay and ideas
73s	that we just wanted to wait for players to be able to take those ideas
77s	and make them real inside Overwatch.
79s	One of the things we say on the Overwatch team
81s	at the end of every meeting is "Let's make a great game"
83s	so I just like to say to the players: Let's make a great game!
