What's the one thing you're looking forward to about the game?
What's the one thing stopping you from getting the game?
I stopped caring once it stopped being F2P
I'll never spend money on a game like this.
>>335733660
It's boring. Personal opinion.
>>335733660
For me it was the Battleborn beta. It made me realize how tired and burned out the MOBA genre is.

I dunno. My friend blue pill'd me on the game and I bought it discounted since I had some extra cash lying around, but outside the fact that it's like TF2 I know nothing else about it.

I don't exactly know what it is. I know I don't like caving to SJW whining however. So not interested, I guess.
>>335733834
Thank god.
I didn't get in the first wave when I was hype for it, then over time my hype died and now I don't want to play it. I look forward to the porn, wish there was more brown girls and mercy than there is, and I wish there was a lot of d.va 'interfacting' with her mech.

This one is a lighthearted game for me
>>335733660
I found it really fun and I was kind of surprised because I actually hate tf2 and moba games.
I think this game is going to be big. We'll see what people say when everyone gets to try it in the open beta.
>>335735407

Zarya isn't the face of the series like Tracer, Widow or even Winston/Reaper are.
In fact, if Zarya weren't do overpowered in the game, she'd probably be most people's least favorite.

Never gonna play it. I hate MOBAs. And the casuals that play them. Even worse, that garbage isn´t free. The worst. Blizzard canceled Titan and implemented some of it´s ideas into a game with a target audience of TF2, LOL and Hearthstone gamers. What a waste of a game and a huge financial success it will be.
>>335733660
>What's the one thing you're looking forward to about the game?

>>335737095
If you hate MOBAs, you're in luck! Because Overwatch isn't one. It is literally Team Fortress 2 with more characters and special skills. No tower pushing, no creeps, no lanes... literally not a MOBA. You're capping points and pushing carts. Team. Fortress.

>>335737779
I think that means you're gay.
>>335737461
I thought it was a fine game. A lot more fast paced and chaotic than Team Fortress 2, but solid nonetheless. My only gripe is, given the inevitable comparisons to TF2, Overwatch seems much less strategic. You don't have the whole rock/paper/scissors dynamic of needing any specific character to really counter another. For example, there is no spy-like unit to take out turrets. Without the spy-like unit, you don't need the pyro-like unit to check them. You don't have snipers to counter act other snipers, etc.

Yes, I played the beta. You're pushing carts and capturing points, like Team Fortress 2. The only thing MOBA-like about it is that the characters have special skills. If you want to see what a real FPS/MOBA looks like, look up videos of Super Monday Night Combat.
>>335738043
I haven't played the game yet but it does seem like that from what i've seen. If you're getting fucked by pharah and don't have rein/winston to stop all the splash damage then your team gets fucked.

You could probably use Widowmaker to blow Pharah's head off. The problem I'm seeing though is that the levels aren't as well balanced as those in TF2. They are much too large and spread out.
I'm excited to play this gameon the ps4
>>335738391
Don't act dumb.
I want to kill myself anyone unironically uses Riots marketing buzzword "MOBA" in any game that's not LoL, but it's really fucking egregious here. If you are using the term because it's the most generic description of a genre ever, that's fine, but if you are saying it because the game has abilities, fuck off. Unlike Battleborn, this shit is 100% class based shooter. Nobody called Dirty Bomb a MOBA and it's a class based FPS with abilities.

Nope.
>>335738938
Did people genuinely forget that TF2 wasnt f2p at launch?
>dont want to spend $40
>at the same time it keeps huehues out
>open beta will probably be a clusterfuck
>>335738938
tf2 had a better community before it went f2p. It also didn't have assfuck distracting hats ruining the aesthetic of the game. I know f2p is nice because you get to try it out without paying anything but paying for the game upfront has merits.
The only issue I've seen is that the maps are cluttered with bullshit little details and lighting/color that makes it hard to distinguish the characters and mostly-see-through lighting effects.
They really should be leaning more on the design basis they got from TF2, in a team based shooter you need quick visual identification, especially since this is easily faster.
Other than that, it looks fun and I'm looking forward to playing it. I'd kinda be interested in 4 on 4 maps or more gamemode diversity than we've been seeing.
Can anyone who's played comment on this?
>>335738928
Maybe none of the big streamers are playing it right now. Twitch is overrated as a metric of popularity. Remember when everyone was watching Bob Ross all weekend?
Overwatch will get good viewing figures when some streamwhores play it whilst flashing their clunge.
>>335739028
it might become f2p eventually after they will sell some copies to gullible people. Battleborne is roughly the same price as this isn't it?
>>335739201
No I bought the orange box. But that was a while ago anon. Nobody in their right mind would release some tf2 meets dota clone for 40 bucks in the modern industry. I mean sure some retards will buy everything you shit on their plates but no thanks I ll pass.

>>335739328
>orange box
I cant believe it's been 9 years. What the fuck man.
>>335739328
It's Blizzard, it will sell a bajillion copies.
>>335739284
What kind of merits? Eventually all games will cost 70 bucks, have dlc out of the ass and a cashshop on top of that. We can already see this trend starting for the past few years. People are greedy idiots who milk their customers as far as possible and gullible idiots will lap it all up anyways.
The point is that tf2 has had the potential to be played for thousands of hours before it was ruined and most people got it in a bundle on the side and didn't actually buy it full priced on its own. Right? tf2 is still a fair bit different and personally I could play that for a while but here I get bored after a few matches already, no reason to pay for it.
>>335739429
less gay shit. more ass
>>335739545
Yeah just like d3. Doesn't mean its not steaming hot shit and that 98% of all of my friends stopped playing it within 2 hours and I was left hanging high and dry. Then it was released for ps4 and suddenly everyone was playing this stale piece of mediocre shit for hours with no end in sight until they could jump ship to memelands.

>Can anyone who's played comment on this?
The maps aren't terrible, but I find that they are far too big. You don't have an engineer class to set up a teleporter at the beginning of the game, and there is no ammo, so unlike TF2, you're really not setting up a forward base, which is a damn shame.
Personally, I didn't have any issue identifying the characters from afar. They are pretty vastly different, so even without the design basis of TF2, they are pretty easily distinguishable, especially if you watch their attacks.
>>335739305
I had a little trouble identifying enemies from far away in the beginning but that didn't last long. There's also a faint red outline on them when enemies are on your screen.
>>335733660
Well one, I don't have a machine that could run it. Even if I did it looks like one of those games that would probably be sold to me if the porn of it was good. I don't really like SFM or half of what Tumblr draws though so the end result is I'm not sold on buying it when I get a new computer.
>>335736360
Miko may be a skin, but it's rough to figure out who would get it.
Mercy for the priestess angle?
Hanzo because he's Japanese?
Genji because he would be cutest in it?
As far as a character based around an outfit, it will never happen. They need skins and won't just dump six recolors on her robes. As well as the whole there are more japs than any other nationality so far thing.
Loli is more likely, but shota will almost certainly make it in first.
>>335734382
100% This
I honestly keep forgetting the game exists.
I never got into the Beta so fuck it, i'm not paying full price for something i couldn't even try once. Maybe it wasn't Blizzard i would part with my dosh
I'm excited for another good class-based multiplayer shooter that people will actually play. I've been wanting another one since Valve ruined TF2 with F2P. I doubt I'll like it more than pre-hats TF2 (not saying cosmetics ruined the game, it just happened to be a bout the time Valve prioritized making money with cosmetics over making a fun game) but it should be a lot of fun.
I preordered it, only thing I'm worried about is them jewing us for future characters.
>>335740042
>I never got into the Beta so fuck it, i'm not paying full price for something i couldn't even try once

can someone tell me when did /v/ suddenly like f2p games? I remember years ago f2p was consider the cancer of the industry and now people want overwatch to be f2p.
>>335733660
as much a widowmaker's design makes my ochinchin kimochi doki doki the game looks boring.
I don't understand why people are bitching about the game costing $40. Heroes of the Storm is free to play, and the cost of getting the heroes without having to wait for rotation or unlocking them FAR exceeds $40. Overwatch is fucking CHEAP compared to what many people spend on F2P games.
>>335734420
I feel you man, playing a chaotic 12v12 shitfest on a random community server with custom sounds and people randomly spraying porn on setup was the best
>>335740675
as the internet gets more affordable for the rest of the world, the muds from the 3rd world get access to the internet and come to 4chan, they love f2p and can't stand having to buy full priced games
>>335740675
Majority of f2p games are shit. There is like 8 good ones. I do not want to give money to blizz after all the shit they ve pulled and I do not even care about nostalrius or any of that recent shit.
This game being f2p would mean that I could play it and if it would be good that might be ok. If this tanks and becomes evolve 2.0 after 2 weeks or 2 months then you blew your money and get stuck on it. There will be shitters regardless just how COD costing money does not prevent it to be full of shitters.
>>335740675
Broke people and teenagers. I'd hate to be that "lol poorfags" guy but that could very well be at least a small part of it. Plus ARTS and the likeI'm not calling it MOBA fuck youhave spoiled people into thinking that online multiplayer focused games should always be f2p.

The only bad thing is going to be the playerbase, it took closed beta players months to figure the game out and get it to a playable state. Now the general public is going to get in and make it unplayable once more.
>>335733660
Preordered both the pc and ps4 version, just cause I want to see the balance changes between the two versions. Had a lot of fun with the 360 version of tf2 and the tiny community that revolved around it. Same for Halo Wars, I'm a sucker for niche online communities.
Though if the upcoming beta is absolute shit then I'd probably cancel, but I'm not expecting it to be.
>>335740675
I'd say the creation of /vg/ was the turning point.
too bad there isn't any porn of this game
Post more Tracer x Windowmaker

Not everyone can be surrounded by ebin hardcore gamers. This place is 90% reddit kiddies as well, its not much different sadly.
>>335740909
I have like 2 k buckaroos lying around and I would still not pay money for this kind of game. There is no long-time fun to be had here imho. Not rich or anything but pretending that only poor people refuse to throw away money is kinda funny actually.

It's way more tactical. There are so many different team comps that outplay other team comps and the games are extremely dynamic and varied because of it.
There are definitely counters and team comp strategies and you just haven't played if you think otherwise.

Not F2P even tho it will have micro transactions for loot boxes
Oh and the fact it's boring after a few hours

That's why I said "I hate to be that guy". Plus it's not entirely a lack of money either, it's also a sense of entitlement that comes from people being spoiled into thinking that multiplayer focused games should be free, or that games that lack single-player content in favor of multiplayer are somehow not worth the value.
>>335741015
What are you talking about? I said SOME people. I've never paid a dime on Heroes of the Storm, I've unlocked almost all the characters with gold.

F2p is still cancer since it attracts spics and Brazilians, it can still be done right like most valve games imo.

Well, all I can say is it was fun, but it did seem like a less-than-strategic clusterfuck to me. I only got two days of play in over the closed beta weekend, but that is the impression I came away with.
The overall level design, paired the the character abilities, make it seem very much less strategic than TF2. Torbjorn's turret isn't even threatening enough to warrant a spy-like unit in the game, and there isn't one, so I guess that's good. I think the 6v6 limitation really hurt it.
>>335741482
the word some does not occur in your original post. Nice backpedal though. I never talked about you or smite in or hots in particular, no need to get so defensive about barely related shit. I was talking about the whole mindset of you thinking paywall for characters is somehow ok or comparable to other things.
>>335741596
Check this roll. I'm a hulking pyromancer that can spam spells like a machinegun, and then my reach doubles. Feels good.
Why is everything in Overwatch so straight forward and serious? The catch phrases and dialogues are so bland and boring it really makes me wonder what the point of the story stuff is if they aren't going to have fun with it?
>What doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger!
TF2 had way more fun and character put into it. I don't understand why Blizzard couldn't do the same. This is the same company that had the best unit quotes in their RTS games.
>>335738043
It is actually far more tactical than TF2 both in the class design and game mode balance. You don't have the rock paper scissors setup where each class has a direct counter but rather a whole lineup of characters who are better or worse against eachother but not a hard counter. What makes this crazy is that because you don't have hard counters you can always find a way to turn the tide in your favor either by using the map, playing off your team, or just gitting gud.
Game mode wise each round is balanced on a knifes edge and one mistake is enough to lose you the round. It does feel a little bit closer to something like Dota where if you go into a fight 3v6 you have zero chance to win as compared to a CS game where 2v4 is easily doable. Losing a single fight as the defender means you can lose half the map and sometimes even losing a single player who over-extended is enough to lose you a fight.
>>335741765
Oh, I'm sorry, I said "MANY people". I'm still not wrong though. The people that are buying into F2P games, including HotS, have probably dropped much more money than the $40 it costs to buy Overwatch.
>What's the one thing you're looking forward to about the game?
Nothing. I'm just on for the secondary content.
>What's the one thing stopping you from getting the game?
It bores big time.
I want Widowmaker to fart in my ear.
>The male characters in this game are so shit and uninteresting that fans make a non-cannon lesbian pairing
>Literally the only female characters that fans talk about are the aforementioned pairing and the THICC-bait not-pandaren cunt
>>335741754
The beta weekends were awful, just a moshpit of people who had no idea what to do. Normal closed beta games were amazing, it took people months to figure out the game and for things to tighten up.
Looks like it'll be fun, I'll buy it on sale and put like 10 hours into it probably
Why so many people have such strong opinions about it confuses me.
>>335742102
>non-canon
Anon, I have some bad news for you
>>335742038
Anyone who I know who plays f2p drops 0-5 bucks on it. A recent study on f2p games revealed that a tiny fraction of the playerbase pays the vast majority of the transactions. Whales are a thing anon. Most people do not pay at all and another fairly big group pays tiny amounts like 5 dollars. Only very few people spend more than 40 bucks total on f2p games or they would not be playing f2p in the first place. Feel free to look it up if you do not believe me, read it like a few weeks ago on the news.
So yeah you are 100% wrong. Unless you think that 0.8% of the playerbase accounts for MANY people.

Neo /v/ is fucked. I would much rather pay $40 upfront than be fucked by microtransactions to experience the game and end up spending well over $40.
>>335742102
Why does it matter if it's canon or not? It's fucking porn you retard.
>>335742381

tracer canonically takes the monkey dick. Widow fucks men and then kills them. Both are terrible sluts

it's not
>>335742341
Her personality is so fake though. It's this Disney princess artificial charm that I just don't see working with a character whose main purpose is to shoot people and be a super hero.
She's just so predictable. How often does the cavalry even need to arrive? It's as annoying as "one shot, one kill!"
>What's the one thing stopping you from getting the game?
Pretty much just battleborn.
>>335742528
yet
it looks like something fun to fill time, at least - maybe taking it seriously wouldn't work out, but we'll see.
if the open beta is fun and runs okay i'll probably buy it.

>>335742463
All micro transactions are literally skins so its only $40 unless want a skin
>>335733660
Pre-ordered it.
Group I usually used to play games with sort of fallen out. Hopefully this game gets us back together.
>>335742783
but there are no microtransactions
>>335742678
Why people buy any video game from any big name publisher is beyond me. They always cheat their customers and always lie about everything, and yet this is a billion dollar industry.
>>335742302
First, find a study that isn't bogged down by shit like F2P mobile games. Second, find one that doesn't average the amount spent among all the players.
One article I found say 30% of TF2 players purchased items. That's a 1/3 of the users. I'd say that constitutes "many" people.
>>335735007
This is the only reason I have interest in this game.
>>335742783
Oh my god, learn what you're talking about.
>>335742931
Not yet, wait for launch
>>335741650
>futa
>>335743043
All future characters, maps, game modes, and anything gameplay related are free.
>>335742783
What is the point in paying 40 bucks if you do not get the full content then? This is just as retarded as buying aweeboos.
>>335742954
>find a study that focuses on arbitrary autism
how about you fund a study yourself you retard? Moving goalposts like a shitter is hilarious itself but implying that anyone will do a study for your nitpicked, and hilariously specific ass is just laughable.
Many people constitutes 51% or more imho. But tf2 is one game and wasn't always f2p to begin with. How about we listen to the study that includes 2+ million people who gave them their opinion on shit and ignore your autistic idiocy? If you can disprove the study then go ahead and do it. Saying hurr durr it doesn't count without even looking at it is just pathetic.
>>335743224
>What is the point in paying 40 bucks if you do not get the full content then? This is just as retarded as buying aweeboos.
ask that to the battleborn fags who pay $60
>>335733660
people stopped caring after it went buy to play and after they actually played the Beta.
>>335743224
You do get the full amount of content, stop being a retard and read. This isn't like LoL or Hots where you have to buy each character individually, this is a normal game where you have all characters, maps, and modes available to you and never have to pay for them.
>>335742783
>>335743224
The microtransactions are loot chests, which can be gotten by just playing the game. Extra ones can be bought if you want them. Future maps and heroes are going to be free, same with Battleborn.
>>335743312
overwatch is 55usd here
life sucks
All that matters is the tons of SFMfutaporn.
>>335742943
Hype. That's all there is to it, really. Normies keep talking about the soon-to-be-released vidya on social media and intensify their hype even more in the process. That's not to say indies don't lie about their shit, Starbound is a great example.
Personally I'm waiting for Stellaris, I know what to expect from Paradox and they've shown a great deal of the game already in their streams, I know that I'll get 1000+ hours on it. Gonna get the gold edition to support the devs and that's literally the only game I'll buy this year.

I got to try it during the last beta and it ran like shit on my shitty laptop so I stopped giving a fuck about it.
