Oh no you can't get a optional skin, its over!
>>336943193
>pay 60 dollars
The game is $40. The Origins Edition is $60 and that comes with 4 skins.
Oh wait YOU MUST BE A CONSOLE FAG
>>336943193
Why would you care about skins in a first person shooter? Why would you pay for things you can't see when you're actually playing the game?
>>336943193
>Skins cost 1000
? Most skins are 75. The neater ones are 250, and legendaries are 1000.
>>336943193
sounds like they've given you an incentive to continue playing.
which means the servers will still be alive after 3 months. compared to the alternative where everyone already has the skins and only 1% of the playerbase log in to the one remaining server to circlejerk and ERP.
>>336943507
40 USD is too much for such a shallow noob-catering piece of shit. Overwatch would have bombed hard on PC if Valve didn't had the horrible fucking problems with cheaters in CS: GO.
I play like 5h i got 200 coins
>>336943649
Anything that isn't a recolor is 1000
>>336943193
so, how much does a 1000 coin skin cost with real dollars?

>>336943748
>if Valve didn't had the horrible fucking problems with cheaters in CS: GO.
it's 2016 aand they are still having problems with hackers? hahahahah
>>336943713
>incentive to continue playing.
Deep gameplay mechanics with insta-kill attacks being a at least in form of pick up power-ups instead of something that every noob can do at least once per game game. That's a better incentive to continue playing.
>>336943193
I think they're limiting the coins since its just an open beta. I've been stuck at 250 coins though I'm sure I've unlocked more than that. Correct me if I'm wrong though.
>>336943748
But it does. So this exists and will succeed. Read the market, nothing is a vaccum.
>>336943985
You don't know how bad it is now. It was bad already. And it got a lot fucking worse recently. Almost to a point that 100% of games played will have at least one hacker in them. A lot of VAC undetectable cheats are in public access right now.
>>336943985
Every online game with a decent playerbase has hackers.
>>336944050
Just like HotS, right?
>Crying about skins
>Pretending to be crying about skins
If it's either of these options re-evaluate your life and then kill yourself.
>>336943193
>It takes longer to get loot boxes as you level
actually after lvl 22 the xp bar stay the same. YOU WILL ALWAYS have to get 22k xp to level up, try it, it's true.
I'm level 32 and I already have 2 legendaries in boxes and i'm really satisfied of it.
>They'll most likely be behind a paywall
Now hear me a sec, If you get a duplicate in a box, you get currency that is equivalent tout the rarity of the item right.
So, the more you get loot crates, the more you get different items, and there is going to have a point when you have so much items that duplicates are going to be more and more plausible to appear.
And with this income you can get legendary skins easily. People in the closed beta proved this already.
Also, the levels are a bit interesting in Overwatch it's a bit like prestige in call of duty. There is 1800 levels in the game. But, if you pass level 100 you'll be level 1 again, and this is to get all the character fancy portraits the more you play. So after level 100, you'll have AGAIN 22 easy levels for crates.
So don't worry. Paywall is well maybe going to happen but it's not a big deal because all the things I said are true
>>336944303
Yes if it's on PC, lol.
>>336943962
Just grind 20 weeks for one skin!

>incentive to continue playing.
What happend to just fun gameplay?
Played 1.6 for thousends of hours, didnt need a incentive to play that shit.
Im just saying, devs need to start making good games, instead of games with neat little "rewards" to keep people playing
>>336944446
>tout
Forgive my french. I meant to say to
>>336943713
Half a year for one skin is good incentive. This grind is worse than Korean MMOs.
>>336944556
>What happend to just fun gameplay?
Fun gameplay AND cosmetic unlocks are a good match. They don't ruin the balance and they give normies more incentive to play so you will not find that the game you love is dead in a couple of moths. But Overwatch is not fun, it's a casual-catering garbage game. I'm just saying that there is nothing wrong with unlocks and stuff like this.
Is there not goint to be a loot box drop system?
>>336944902
All I'm seeing right now is a bunch of buzzwords.
Here's your (You) but try harder next time, ok?

>We now live in an age where taking time to unlock an alternate outfit is considered a bad thing to some people and is somehow a valid point when considering the USD value of a game.
Holy shit do I hate human beings. Oh dear lord. Nevermind the fact that exp required for leveling stops growing after a certain point, and leveling does NOT take long at all, this shit is just fucking gold.
>>336944494
Yeah, console games are literally impossible to hack!

>>336943193
Also if you didn't know, one of the devs on reddit said that EVERYTHING gets wiped at the end of the beta. You don't keep your beta skins when the real game drops.
>>336943193
I'm level 16 and I have gotten about 600 in coins from loot boxes. I also got two 250 skins and one 1000 skin from loot boxes.
They're just skins anyways. Does it really fucking matter? I bet you collect skins in CS:GO and TF2 you fucking faggot. Stop playing barbie dress up and focus on the game.
>>336943846
Not true many of the 250 are different models. Maybe not as much as the 1000, but there are many changes.
>>336946392
The game is shit tho.
>got 3 skins (including Junker D.Va which is radical as fuck), 2 Intro Animations and 400 coins by level 20
GG
I'll miss this fucking D.Va skin when the full game is out honestly.

IT'S A FUCKING COSMETIC THAT HAS NO EFFECT ON GAMEPLAY

Damn shame
>>336946535
Love that skin, I wish you the best of luck opening it if you play the game when its officially out.
So I preordered the game. Will all my progress made during this weekend stay once the main game comes out? Or do I have to grind again?
>>336946069
Not really, I'm playing the game and having fun, while you shitposting and baiting for attention so you would feel a little bit better about pathetic life in which you don't even actually playing vidya..
>>336946560
Game where noobs don't get to use FREE KILLS button at least once per game. Quake, CS, UT, Halo. On the side note, even new Doom has power-ups as a pickups on map.
>>336946732
Progress resets at end of beta.
>>336946906

Maybe you should actually play the game, anon.
somebody hook me up with a beta code i wanna try this shit

Why is there so much moaning about overwatch? your either going to buy the game or not. if your going to buy the game whatever but if your not going to buy it why are you focusing all your attention to shitpost about it?'
>>336947118
Oh, so you're that guy with buzzwords.
Cause if you've actually played the game you would know that as soon as you hear GOT YOU IN MY SIGHTS either Soldier get shot by everyone or everyone fall back to counter his ult.

>>336947346
You're on /v/ mate. You're on the most cancerous board full of 12-years old arguing about games they don't even play.
>>336946762
Maybe because i have played the game, had fun, but i can clearly see a gameplay mechanic that blocks this game from becoming something truly great. A mechanic that was added only because "bad players need to have at least one free kill per game too!". I know that noobs getting a random free kill will not stop a truly skilled players form winning the match in the end, but it will severely add to the frustration and hamper the enjoyment from the game. I have already played a game just like Overwatch. Destiny. I am pretty good at this game's PvP but it's still frustrating as the first time when noob uses his panic free kill button on you and there is little you can do to counter it.
The only threads that are getting spammed are anti-shill threads like this one. I don't even have the fucking game, i'm just sick of seeing people moan about a game they have no intention of getting, just fucking move on.

The full system isn't implemented yet. You get various denominations of coins as well as coins for uncrating duplicates.

True,

why do skins matter? you're playing the same character, same game. A lot of the skins are just recolored, and a bunch of them aren't even good looking.
if you're complaining just to complain then you do you.
>>336947756
I had my share of fun, but Overwatch is not fun overall. The amount of fun i get is overshadowed by loads of frustration. When i played Destiny i thought that ultimate attacks will stop being such a frustration when i get really good. Well they didn't. At least for me. It's just incredibly unfair and cheap mechanic. If you want noobs to have fun just make a fucking fun game, make guns fun to shoot from make movement satisfying, don't break the fucking game so noobs could have fun damn it.

>>336943748
TF2 cost over 20 bucks standalone when it came out.
That was over 9 years ago.
So it's pretty much the same once you figure inflation and how prices of everything have generally gone up 40-50% in the last decade.
>>336943985
>[CURRENT YEAR]
>>336947927
it's hearthstone boosters with auto selling duplicates and even shittier 'commons' don't pretend other wise.
you get 5 coins sell back for a duplicate common spray, 50 coins if you get the 'Rare tier' coin drop (notice how the epic skins cost 75, nice sheckle logic) and 350 for an epic tier coin (epic skin is 750)
they give 'just' enough chance at currency to shut up people who will complain when they micro transaction loot crates.
even though the overall lack of skins worth a damn make it so that it would jus tbe more cost effective ot buy the skin you want than bother with those terrible boxes of terrible rewards
>>336943193
Yeah that loot system is pretty bad.
You should get depending on people commending your or something.
>>336948463
mate you're defending neo blizzard games you could also just do the same for EA.
Is Overwatch really gonna affect TF2 at all?
Valve properties never seem to ever die out. Don't people still play the first Counter Strike?
>>336948656
Only if it goes f2p, but it won't because Blizzard likes to make you pay for games with micro transactions.

neo blizz games or not, that doesnt refute what i said about how fuckin often the word shill gets thrown around and missused does it
>>336948656
No, the games lacking in substance, best case scenario blizzards usual laziness eventually adds enough to make it comparable, and the amount of money blizzard will fart out to try and forc eit to be big (unless it shits the bed, liek HoTs did, then they'll quietly walk away but let the game keep going)
Blizzard will try like the always do to leverage this to more casual players and their brand loyalists, serious people will 'play' it, but only the most deseperate for attention 'pro's will main it as their sole game.

While I agree with you, I must also say: Stay possitive and gid gud. And by "git gud" I mean improve your overall performance. I also see this trend of (at least) 1 hacker per game in the past month, but they are still noobs who don't know how to play the game and are trying to hide their hacks. If you are good enough and have a team that is at least as decent as you, you would win (or at least tie) unless they go full-on haxorz in which case they will get banned.
>>336948483
>I'm a retard who can't into money
By that logic the new Uncharted should be priced at $120 and a new console should cost as much as a used car.
