Blizzard announced the sped-up twist on the normal OW2 game mode in a new blog post today. Everything in Quick Play: Hacked

Everything in Quick Play: Hacked – Quicker Play has been sped up. Respawn times are now 25 percent shorter, Payloads in Escort and Hybrid maps are 60 percent faster, and capturing the point is 40 percent faster in Hybrid and also in Control, where scoring capture progress is 80 percent faster.<\/p>

Blizzard said these changes “only apply to all players who play in Role Queue and Open Queue Quick Play modes during the duration of the event and will return to normal after Jan. 14” and that Competitive Play and Arcade won’t be affected.<\/p>

Quicker Play is just the first variant of Quick Play: Hacked, which Blizzard says it will use to “explore new and fun ways to change core Quick Play gameplay” for a limited time. <\/p>
