Overwatch, It Isn't New Anymore

Better than me. Only Blizzard games I played since this were The Lost Vikings 1 and 2 on SNES.

I've seen a few, but yeah it's annoying seeing some whiny shithead talk about how the game is going to tank, the teams suck, etc.

While you'll never get rid of all of them, don't forget that this is an open beta of a hyped title. There will be a lot less trolls once you have to pay 60 bucks to play it. The difference between f2p and b2p community wise is quite large these days. At least that's what I experienced recently from the Blade & Soul / Black Desert Online releases. B&S literally turned into Twitch chat with memes spam all day while BDO was mostly civilized, appart from some people telling others to stop speaking french

Pretty much. Same happened with TF2 after it went F2P and DOTA2 came out.

So glad I have a friend at Blizzard who got me a PC origins copy for 16 after shipping

[Prothescar]

I settled for the peasant $40 one cause im not interested in paying $20 for some skins


actually i should prolly just get this https://www.g2a.com/overwatch-origins-edition $3 for the extra skins and stuff isnt breaking the bank

Pretty solid review/critique of the netcode.

Cdkeys had Overwatch Origins for 32 for the longest time. Get with it peoples.

Sigh I'm in major withdrawal now. Would like to try and get a BG group together for launch day if anyone is down. I've gone back a could pages and sent friend invites to anyone that posted there tag. Torenia and me were wreaking nerds duo so be cool to stomp with a BG team.

[Corrderio]

I'd be willing to give it a go. I need to dust my headset off.

[avelle]

I'm not super great or anything, but I'm always down for making more OW friends to shoot nerds with. Avelle#1822

[Prothescar]

Went abck and added people too til i got bored, my tag is Prothescar#1320 if i missed anyone

[Nama]

Incase anyone didn't know as the game wont show you until you finish a game as a group but groups get a 20% exp bonus.

Withdrawl has been real didn't expect so many others I been seeing on reddit going through what I have with finding previous games seem slower and not as appealing now, leaving us bored XD Hopefully this will pass soon...

But yup yup, lots of nice games with Nama, I was Torenia#1941 in case anyone missed that earlier.

I'm currently debating on buying for PS4 as I'm looking to find something to keep me entertained until FFXV releases. I had quite a bit of fun with the beta, but in short bursts. I wish there were more match types, like a CTF mode. And even though I know it's a team-based game and Blizzard said it would never happen, I wish there was a lone wolf type match just for when teammates piss you off enough and you want to go Rambo for a bit.

Who knows, they may do something on the weekly brawl to change things up. During open beta weekend, it was Force Random when you die + Cannot change hero.

Which I might go for if the weeklies persisted for some variety (and obviously then weren't called weekly).

Even though I'm outright calling Overwatch the superior game over some of its competition there is no way I would pay more than 20 bucks for it. Objectively I would even pick Battleborn over it even though I hate most of that game's visual aesthetic and worse multiplayer. And this isn't even really a slight against Blizzard. I can respect that they want to charge $60 for this, I just don't feel comfortable paying that much. I would have preferred the model set by HotS but that's just me.

I really enjoyed beta more than I thought but I know I won't last if I make an impulse buy.

During Closed Beta the weekly brawl actually rotated everyday to test out the different versions they had. There was 14 versions in closed beta and they said they are working on more. As far as I know only Heads Up and High Noon are the only two Blizzard said probably won't be in release as people didn't like the headshot only games.
