Why is this allowed? It's like if you had to pay money to get the skins in smash bros.
>b-but you can still get it for free! You only need to grind for 500 hours!
>>340786106
Their justification is that is supports the free maps / champions
So I can feed my crate addiction, fuck off.
Shit's free, senpai.

Nigga the standard price is 40 bucks.
I only paid 40$
>pays 60 bucks for a game
>need to pay a monthly fee just to play all the game
>grey, grey, blue, grey
Five boxes in a row.
I doubt the next one will be any better.
I haven't spent a dime on these awful things and I never will but it really sucks the fun out of progression when I know with almost complete certainty that the next box will be grey, grey, blue, grey.

>>340786106
>IT'S FREE IF I PLAY THE GAME OH SHIT THIS ISN'T FAIR
Go fuck yourself, seriously. If you can't play the game without already having cosmetics you shouldn't be playing the game in the first place, faggotron.
>tfw get Riverboat McCree and B.Va in the same box
also, seem to be averaging a yellow skin every 20-25 boxes, seems like a similar drop rate to Heartstone cards
why is mei so fat?!

It's a progression system
You are 100% retarded if you think otherwise
>>340786240
>Implying those shouldn't be free in any game anyway
Why would anyone play a game where you have to pay to unlock content?
>>340791340
one of the legendaries and two of the player intros i had to use the in-game coin system to get. i figured it would be shitty for some other people, i've not had a legendary drop in 20 levels now.
>>340791406
>Why would anyone play a game where you have to pay to unlock content?
So, any modern game?I don't
>>340791376
yeah, loot is pretty much the only goal, everything you do in this game is for loot so if you want loot you need experience if you want loot quicker you need to play well to get more experience for time. i see no downside really.
motivation for people to actually play well.
>>340791376
players never needed stupid rpg mechanics to play a game all the time. why did CoD have to make things this way
>>340786106
Don't bother OP, nobody with a brain larger than a peanut actually plays this game on /v/
>>340786106
>behind a pay wall
Its all free bud.
>>340786106
You level up every 3-4 matches until you hit the level 50 which is every 4-5 matches
step up your game
>>340786106
>people actually defend skinner box grinding/cash shop cosmetics in a paid game
Remember when you could just hop on down to Fpsbanana and download a skin if you wanted to put shit on your guns or something?
>>340792036
actually it's after level 20 that leveling up ceases to get harder.
>>340791879
Because progression motivates people to stick to one game in a martket where theres a lot of companies competing for more players
who cares
>>340792061
And then people would complain and call the devs lazy
its a lose/lose situation where in one instance you lose even harder than in the other
You know at release I would be inclined to defend this but after playing now I know this is pure jewery, all my boxes are just 3 whites and 1 blue, they had higher rates in beta to increase word of mouth and positive impressions and turned it down when they started selling the boxes. Fuck off blizzard
>>340792370
>And then people would complain and call the devs lazy
Who, though?
>>340786626
>progression
The progression of the game is getting better at actually playing, if the fun of the game for you is the skins, you will get bored of it pretty quick
>>340791406
>They should work to provide the game with new content FOR FREE
Name 1 game that isn't dead as fuck or only supported by its fans community that pulled it off
Battleborn>Overwatch from sheer progression and content.
Tons of characters to level, individual challanges for every single, story mode, AND loot boxes with skins, new taunts, and gear.
Fight me you gearbox hating blizzard cock sucking blizz drone faggots.
>but m-m-muh waifus!
This game's a timblr tier meme.
Does the enemy team hear my voice lines? This is important.

But the only extra exp. you get from being good is if you win the game (which doesnt matter how good you are if your team is shit) and getting a gold medal, which is easy as fuck.
>>340793192
Let me amend that.
Getting absolute fucking garbage in boxes sucks the fun out of leveling up, because it does fuck-all else, it's not even a solid indicator of whether or not someone's good at the game. I've played with at least a couple level fifty people by this point who clearly got there via playtime alone.
The "I play Hanzo on attack and get a free play of the game off one of the eleven ultimates I use, but do nothing to help the team" types.
>>340786240
INB4 Heroes cost 1.5k jew gold, OVERKEKED
>still free buy playing the game zozzle
>>340794102
>a couple level 50 people.
How long have you been playing? by the time I was 10 I was getting matched with lobbies of 40-90.
>>340792036
It's 22K exp. required to level up past level 20. You'll get roughly 3-4K exp. per match. So it's 5 matches, slightly faster if you're in a group getting the 20% exp. bonus.
>>340794272I hope they do cost money so I have something to spend my neosheckles on
>>340794272
blizz said no charge for future heroes or maps
plus it would fracture the community doing that
>>340794346
I don't even think I've had it for two weeks yet, I'm level 34 and I've spent a lot of time playing with one friend and his co-workers who are all below 20, a couple of them are below 10.
The match-making may have changed since release, or it's influenced by how low-level the rest of my team tends to be.
>get legendary widow skin
>20 levels later
>get it again
THERE'S LIKE 80 LEGENDARY SKINS WHY DO I GET IT TWICE
>>340794459
They said "free" doesn't mean they won't jew you by making you use the shekels to get the heroes for "free"
>>340793557
People complained in all chat when I spammed aMEIzing so I assume so.
>>340794829
free means free. They seem really adamant about making sure that coins are only for cosmetics. I.e., seasonal outfits, new outfits.
>>340789370
she isnt
>>340786106
Overwatch is a shallow, empty fucking game that appeals to the lowest common denominator of "pick up and play for 15 minutes" hyperactive grindfest kids. The majority of the audience are hardcore League of Legends kiddos who don't even give a fuck about games let alone care about a good experience while playing, and just get high off the feeling of shooting someone and seeing them die over and over.
The loot and all that excess shit isn't gameplay, nor are "customization options" and "cosmetics" part of the game. They're just literally useless things to make the game seem less empty than it is.
This shit is dying, though, because thank fucking god people are waking up. I enjoy watching it fall on Twitch every week.
Post 'em.

Consoles have licensing and publishing fees, on top of additional Q/A costs, whereas on PC Blizzard just dumps it out onto their own distribution software and it sells digitally for a much larger profit ratio.
Blame Sony and M$ for the $60 price tag.
>>340795180
The GG people who just like to go through matches mindlessly killing others can stick to League and Overwatch, honestly. They aren't hurting anybody. But I really wish companies would stop trying to monopolize off MOBA style games. They're worthless.
>>340795787
>They're worthless.
that's patently false though, they make an absurd amount of money
>>340795787
Counter Strike, Team Fortress, in the past years, Quake, and DOTA /WHILE/ it was on Warcraft 3 were fantastic.
This whole new wave of team based shooters with heroes with my epic special abilities are just a fuckload of empty stupid fucking games.
>>340794829
You are stupid.
>>340795852
It's patently true I'm about to fuck you in the butt.
>>340796036
Sure, I like buttstuff, go ahead
>>340795787
I spend more money on MOBAs than any other type of game. Blizzard is right to appeal to me.
>>340796073
is that fucking italy's flag
>>340786626
yeah i get the same combination nearly every time as well. haven't seen a purple or higher in about 10 levels, and the last one i got was a duplicate.
>>340786106
>you just need to grind
Back in my day, we called that playing the game, and it was the reason we bought the fucking thing. I can't believe we're at a point where kids think of playing the game to unlock new stuff is a bad thing.
what do you think the design process for mercy went like
>what if she had an ult that ressurected a player? you could use to revive a key class like your tank and keep on going
>dude what if she ressurected everyone
>well, we better give it a slow charge then, since that ult could completely nullify damage done to your team and turn the fight around completely
>dude what if it was one of the fastest ultimates to charge up
>>340796520
this
Literally what makes you think every single thing in a game needs to be unlocked the second you buy it?
Do games other than overwatch let you play with the best items/fight the final boss before you play the first level?
>>340796649
dude what if you fucking suck at the game so you complain about every little thing and blow it out of proportion
>>340796649
So kill mercy. She's only got 200 health. Jesus christ you people suck at games.
>>340791376
100% this
>>340796649
>not immediately focusing down and killing the mercy
You deserve to be butthurt.
>>340796520
>>340796682
Other games let you unlock things through progression not RNG
There's no excuse for not being able to unlock skins for a character by playing them
>>340797306
Tf2 gives you random hats for playing and nobody's throwing a shitfit over that.
>>340797543
shhhh you're ruining his point, let the baby throw his hissy fit
>>340797543
TF2 is free
>>340797775
That has nothing to do with progression vs. RNG. Try again.
>>340797306
The only real problem is that they only have sprays you can earn through character accomplishments. They should have had at least one legendary skin tied to a hero mastery system or even just coins tied to achievements. The rest can be random.
>>340797543
That's because Valve fanboys are fucktarded. Everything is 10/10 in their eyes so you can't complain about TF2, Dota 2, CSGO, etc without getting shit on by neckbeards
>>340786106
It's so funny people paid under the delusion they were getting everything. Blizz open up a pay shop on day 1 don't tell anyone about it. Such a corrupt company.
>>340795215
Just got it
>>340795973
SCREENSHOT THIS
>b-but you can still get it for free!
this is valid, because they don't affect the gameplay.
don't whine because you have shit luck
>>340797947
>things that never happened
>>340790012
This is the only answer.
>>340797872
Free games need to make their money back, usually through micro transactions, so they bar off content or use RNG to encourage people to pay for things they want. A game that is already sold for 40-60 dollars has no need for such things, and it comes down to them trying to squeeze every cent out of their users
>>340797543
>>340797683
It's cute to see how defensive you are
I never mentioned TF2
And TF2 having hats doesn't make it ok.
Also,
TF2 was free / came with 2 other games
Not $40 - $60
>People care for skins or tags
Holy shit, just play the game.
I just equip whatever I'm getting if I like it.
>>340798415
>no need for such things
Since when does need mean anything? You don't need video games, but you still play them. Blizzard made a game, they can do with it whatever the fuck they want, and people will either buy it if they like it or not buy it if they don't. At the end of the day cosmetics don't mean jack fucking shit, and everything in the game can be unlocked for free.
Welcome to the free market, my friend.
>>340797872
But it does
LoL just put in an equally as grindy crate system that Overwatch has
Except LoL is F2P
>>340795734
No, I'm also going to blame ActiBlizzion, I doubt that shit justifies a full 20 dollar price increase. Games are constantly released on the piss4 for less than full retail, Activision-Blizzard just wanted ALL the money instead of just most of the money.
>>340798415
tf2 already sold for 20 bucks by the time you could buy stuff
>>340798707
>Blizzard made a game, they can do with it whatever the fuck they want
And I can criticize them however I want. Welcome to freedom of speech, my friend.
All future heroes and maps are free.
You can easily get free loot boxes just by playing the game. Even shitty players can easily get a loot box every day by playing for a couple hours.
You can buy them in case that's not enough for you, but it's by no means behind a paywall.
>>340798625
tf2 was 20 bucks when I bought it a year from release
>>340798848
this is the internet, not america you fool!
now say something nice about mercy
>>340798909
>couple hours.
A level should take you an hour at MOST
>no lootboxes
>"waah no progression why play??"
>lootboxes
>"why can i pay to get more for literally no reason waah"
With entitled gamers there's no winning.
You guys are whining about cosmetics that you can earn in the game for free.
It's just costumes and emotes.
Nothing more.
>>340798707
It actually blows my mine how delusional Blizzdrones are
Games likes SFV and Destiny got shat on because of lack of content
Yet Overwatch is still shilled somehow
I realize now that it's because those two fan bases weren't completely retarded.
Summer is in like 9 days, where are the swimsuits skins?
you must be millenials with such an inflated sense of instant gratification. In 2 months from now you'll have everything unlocked just by playing normally.
>>340798945
Yeah it's half the price and came with Half Life and Portal
>>340798968
i lost every game
i am about halfway though level 1 after 8 games
>>340799284
I don't think that's even possible. I went from 1 to 3 after my first game.
>>340798968
I said if you suck. Losing would get you about 1.2-1.5k per game. That's 15-23 games. Average game takes 5-10 minutes and there's about 3 minutes of downtime between matches. That's 2-3 hours per box. If you lose every match.

I'd like it more if you just got pure coinage instead of random-chance trash.
If all the game did was hand you play money and let you buy what you wanted it'd simplify everything, and it'd still have people buying in-game money.
>>340786240
So assuming they charged for chars and maps
What is worth the $40 if you didn't include maps and characters
