where is this image and information coming from?
>>315597558
Gamestop leaked it accidently first, not sure if it's popping up elsewhere.
>>315597558
The image right from Battle net
it's been taken down since
the details from GAME
and the $40 price from people who have been able to preorder at Gamestop

Wait, this game is coming to consoles? That's fucking gross.
>>315596882
Yeah I don't fucking think so, nice try Blizzjew.
Is it sad that even though I have gaming PC that I'm considering this for my Xbone down the road?
>>315593171
Holy shit this skin looks stupid.
This is a fake, right?
>>315596882
>Origins Edition Includes:
>21 Heroes
I get the feeling this means you'll have to unlock heroes.
>>315599049
Yes. What possible reason could you ever want to play an fps on a console over PC?
>>315599049
It's sad that you're considering this at all.
>>315597395
She was one of the four new heroes datamined from Heroes of the Storm not that long ago.
>>315600284
>four new heroes datamined
>four
Who are the other 3?Better be Kel'thuzad.
>>315595847
I hope this means it isn't ftp. You get rid of a lot of online cancer by forcing a 60 dollar buy-in
>>315599049
that's especially dumb
at best the versions are the same but you're stuck with controller
at worst you're stuck with controller and have to pay online fee's
the console version might lag behind patches and content like console D3 does
>>315598235
>play for free with limitations
>pay 40$ to unlock everything + some exclusive stuff
Name one thing wrong with this business model you faggot shitposter
>>315600729
Games like TF2 and Dota 2 are completely free and don't cost $40 goddamn dollars just to play.
>>315600802
> people still think TF2 isn't pay to win
I sure love having a limited as fuck inventory
the base weapons are totally better than the new ones and the option to use all the weapons tailored for certain playstyles totally isn't an advantage!
>>315600802
>you won't be forced to play with 90% f2p whoring thirld worlders like I'm those games
Thank you based Blizzard
>>315600990
The base weapons are the best weapons in the game. Stop being a shitter.
Anyone else think itll be DoA if they go this model for PC? I mean, the gay ass pay2notgrind nonsense killed HotS, so i understand why they don't want to repeat that, but i honestly can't see a game like this launching on PC for anything more than 20 bucks, at most.
>>315601045
>HotS
>dead
hue
>>315600802
>games like TF2...are completely free
If you don't think this is jewy enough, we're expecting blizzard to announce "remastered versions" of WC3, Starcraft 1/BW and Diablo 2 at blizzcon.
>>315600729
>>315596882
Yeah im totally fine with paying for most content once, like in Smite.
>>315600642
You also limit your player base significantly stifling people from playing your game at a competitive level.
HAHAHAHA shit man I could not say that with a straight face. As much as I hate spending money it'd be for the best to get a 40-60 buy in.
>>315600729
It's only acceptable if it gives you all future heroes they release as well.
>>315601120
It is free you idiot. You don't need anything besides the base weapons, everything else is just a luxury.
>>315601095
HotS is as dead as they come. Literally not one shred of evidence that proves otherwise. Blizzard has to combine it with Hearthstone in their quarterly reports because it's such a fucking failure Hearthstone has to pad the numbers.
what would you rather have
>40 dollars, all characters unlocked and skins for sale with ingame and real currency
or
>free to play, but you have to buy characters with ingame and real currency, free characters rotate weekly with skins also for sale
one of those 2
is this some big joke?
can people actually not read?
the "origins editor" is like a collectors thing
we still don't know the monitization model
>>315601597
The first, since I'm not a third worlder
>>315600729
>pay 40$ to unlock everything
You mean unlock everything they have available NOW. If it was a retail price to get every piece of content they release ever (or even just every hero to be released ever) it wouldn't be bad at all.
But it wont be that. You can bet your bottom dollar they're going to release a shitload of heroes similar to how LoL used to every fortnight to keep all but the most hardcore of hardcore grinders from being ever able to catch up, making them think "Maybe it's worth buying RIOTBUX(tm)."
This "Pay2notgrind" model is just as cancerous as P2W only fewer people think so, so it thrives.
>>315601642
What it suggests is that you will have to unlock heroes in the same stupid way that you have to unlock League of Legends and HoTS heroes.
>>315601597
First. If it's a game worth its salt a 40 dollar price tag shouldn't deter anyone but retarded 12 year olds, russians and BRHUEs.
>>315601810
They can't even fucking release HotS heroes fast enough. Blizzard is lazy as shit.
>>315601826
it either means they'll sell heroes or (more likely) there will be 21 heroes by the time it actually releases. because i think theres like ~16 right now(?)
>>315600642
Yeah, it worked so good with CS, BF, COD and literally every other p2p shooter in existence.
>>315601473
>he actually thinks TF2 was always free
>>315601950
Unless a comp scene picks up soon i doubt HotS is going to be anything more than a playground for hardcore blizz fanboys.
>>315602024
It was at a more reasonable price and came bundled with two other games.
>>315601473
There was a time when it wasn't free, my young friend.
>>315602041
It's just a dumping ground for useless Blizzard tat like Blizzcon goodies and special edition horseshit.
>>315602129
Hence why only the fanboys will give it the time of day.
>>315602072
>he actually thinks TF2 was originally in a bundle
>>315593171
>Noire Widowmaker skin
>Not actually Noire
>>315601597
40 dollars is reasonable. LoL's f2p model is shit, anyway.
>>315602283
It.. was in the Orange Box, dude.
>>315602295
>weebs
Not even once.
>>315602337
It... didn't start in the Orange Box, brah.
>>315602283
>he doesn't know
>>315602414
>Blizztards
baka desu senpai
>>315602439
Yes it fucking was. How can you not remember this?
>>315602439
> It was released as part of the video game compilation The Orange Box on October 10, 2007
Wait a minute, that card ..
>>315602439
Wait, yes it did. You got beta access for preordering the Orange Box.
>>315602414
They could easily make Uni into widowmaker no problem, too. What a waste of potential.
so does this come with the beta or not?
>>315602615
>Nepshit
>>315600437
>Better be Kel'thuzad.
Finally. Someone gets it
>>315602703
someone on ledditxD said it comes with beta access
i guess this is their early access-type thing
>>315593171
did the skin made the tiddies small?
those are loli tits tho
>>315602827

>invite only streamers
>beta access for only 40$
ayyy
>if you want to test it buy the beta
lol
>>315602927
Her tits were never big and black clothing makes things look smaller/slimmer.
>single purchase

Thank fucking god
>By the way here's incentive to play the most cancerous hero in the game currently
THANKS
>no mercy skin
Fuck you Metzen.
>>315602414
You're on the wrong website mate.
This isn't Facebook.
>>315603380
/v/ is not a weeb board.
Whoa, I thought this going to be F2P. I don't know how to feel about this.Then again, my shitty laptop would probably fry on anything past low settings, but now I get another game for my PS4. And F2P games are usually shitty.
>>315603502
>>315603143
the skins affect your performance though
>>315603619
>lying
>>315599187
which part of f2p was it you didnt get?
is this game free?
>People will still eat this shit up
Some people are just suckers
>>315601037
>base scout is the best
>base pyro is the best
>base engi is the best
The other classes, yes but by no means are ALL base classes 'the best'
Where did they ever actually say this would be free to play?
F2P isn't cancer. No region lock is cancer. Every us east server is infested with south americans and every us west server is overwhelmed with russians.
Regardless of how the game is, they better not fuck up region locking.
>>315604096
They never did. What they did say is that characters wouldn't be locked out, which goes against the notion that it'd be free to play
But somehow people still had the diea it'd be f2p
What I'm getting at is people are retarded and jump to conclusions
>>315604296
This, holy god
I don't care if jungle people and slavs get to play the game too. Just don't put me in the same room as them
Will console player be able to play with PC player like in FF XIV?
>>315604092
Did you even play the game?
Scout base is solid and so is pyro's. Basic Engie is fine if you focus on defense.
>>315604446
Not if they care about balance.
But it's blizzard so yes, they will be able to
I learned that no online game is truly F2P
What matters is how much content the game allows you to access without spending money.
>going to use a kb+m on my ps4 to play
>>315604642
You can use mouse and keyboard on ps4 and xbone
>>315604702
>use kb+m on console to play destiny multiplayer
>completely destroy everyone since I can actually aim worth a shit due to mouse being superior to joystick
>Get contacted by admin about aimbotting
>He literally starts laughing his ass off on the phone when I explain I was just using a mouse to aim
Console keks, not even once
>>315601597
considering $40 is a fair price for this type of game and Blizzard's F2P structure is hilariously overpriced in every way, you'd have to be pretty dumb to not prefer the first method
>>315601597
If you get this game you probably expect to be playing it for a long time. You'd be an idiot not to invest $40 at the beginning for a better experience.
>>315605114
>>Use kb+m for destiny
Please tell me that you can do this on PS3
>>315602283
Dude, really? It was part of the orange box, from an era when Valve was good.
I have a physical copy of the orange box AND TF2 as well. I loved it. fuck you Valve.
The game is still free to play you are paying $40 for a beta
>>315606339
have you seen the release date?
assuming they let me in asap i'm dropping the cash
still no mention of beta though
god damn
could be because it's pc only right now
>>315606559
Its obvious they are taking preorders when they annoce it at Blizzcon so in a couple days you probably could be playing the beta
>>315603660
>aim goes to shit when bikini Widow walks on screen
>>315602414
>>315603502
Kill yourself.
>>315608139
>proving his point
Good job, champ.
