I will. I've had beta access since Tuesday and I'm having fun.
>>
>>315669465
Sure, it's sad it's not F2P.
Yeah, the price of 40 seems much for a bare-bones multiplayer despite how fun it is.
The additional skins look nice but it's not much.

I guess if they could guarantee free characters, maps, and game modes in the future I would be all for a 39.99 dollar price tag.

I would really like the devs to do more with the characters. They could create interesting solo single character campaigns for story. Add a solo game play modes like a practice mode or something. Idk, just it seems really plain right now.

I really like the aesthetics and gameplay, I wasn't a fan of TF2 nor am I big into blizzard or moba games so I would rate it based on your scale at 3.5/10 for fucking it up(?)

I hope this helps, OP.
>>
>>315671364
>Yeah, the price of 40 seems much for a bare-bones multiplayer despite how fun it is.
That's a solid price for an FPS made by a triple A dev, also (if it's good) it's worth buying simply because you don't have to put up with F2P Russians and Brazillians.
>>
>>315672032
Yeah, I'm most likely buying it anyway but I'm not going to pre-order.
>>
>>315669465
Not as much as their design teams/10

Also fucking lol at this skin, it looks hideous.
>>
>>315670642
I'm not even sure if I'm having fun or not.

It's pretty shit that one ultimate can wipe an entire team. It would be a decent F2P game, but no way am I paying even $40 for something this skilless.

Not him, but I would rather the ults work in conjunction with your skill rather than winning for you.

Really the question is why does this game have to have ults, this is only going to turn the match pacing completely ult-centric.

Why do they have to add mobility on a cooldown instead of making it an intrinsic part of the character

>>
>>315669465
>On a scale of 1 to 10, how much is Blizzard's marketing team fucking up the company?
1, since the marketing team knows there's going to be people buying it because their favorite streamer likes it, there's going to be people buying it because they still think it's a TF2 clone while looking nor playing it, and there's going to be people who buy it because the name "Blizzard" is on the box.
>>
>>315673841
Do you even read the thread? It's 40, unless you want all that useless shit for other blizzard games.

This 60$ meme really needs to stop, it's ridiculous.
>>
>>315674838
The mobility in Overwatch is really stupid (also it's because of consoles, lol).

Tracer's movement system is insanely bad, and the funniest thing is her base run speed is really low.

There is none.
Developer confirmed on some streamer Ellohime's channel that you would get cosmetics on level up ala Dota 2.

No. Only operations which are essentially achievements systems that dish out skins as rewards.
>>
>>315682421
IIRC, whenever they release new maps they sell a medal which gives you access to a specific playlist (and you can rank up that medal), but you don't need it to play the maps after the release period or privately.
>>
>>315682623
>>315682854
Ah, I just remember once I couldn't play a playlist of the new maps and had to buy a key. But that was a long time ago.
>>
>>315673737
Because all the skins are past versions of the heroes.
>>
So did they confirm if you have to buy future heroes?
>>
It's always Valve games people compare business models to. Has anybody noticed that it's only Valve that does that crap?

I mean, if you care about business models so much you may as well only play Valve games. But don't think they don't jew you other ways like with Steam. Valve is completely reliant on microtransactions.
>>
>>315683105
no but they also didint confirm the opposite. time will tell.
>>
>>315683275
I hope they won't do that, it'd be a let down.
I'm hyped for the game, no beta key yet

So this game is going to cost $40 and have micro-transactions?

Are you fucking kidding me?
>>
>>315669465
I've already bought it.
>>
>>315683105
I could see them including a way to earn any new characters they release like in-game gold or something. Blizzard can do stupid things at times but they're smart enough to realise that customers would lose their shit if they had to pay real money for any new characters.
>>
>>315683535
There is no source saying that anything about transactions. If anything, there will be microtransactions for cosmetics, like CS:GO
>>
>>315672821
it can wipe an entire team if they sit around staring at it, yes
>>
There will be skins, avatars and sprays. Not sure if they will cost, but yeah most likely.
>>
>>315683982
Which is kind of annoying if you're going to play $40 or $60 dollars.
>>
>>315683756
>I could see them including a way to earn any new characters they release like in-game gold or something
Of course, but that is pure cancer even in games that are otherwise F2P, paying for a game up front and then having to pay2notgrind for heroes would be absolutely terrible.

Buying cosmetics is one thing, but jewing on new heroes would be unacceptable unless they make normal expansions like any other game could get, so basically not microtransactions.
>>
>>315684257
I personally don't give any fucks about microtransactions for cosmetics. If some retard wants to pay $100 for his shiny new skin, he can do so for all I care.
>>
D.VA seems odd. Supposedly based on Starscraft, but her skills seems to fit a game like Armored Core. Not RTS at all.
>>
>>315671364
40 is definitely worth it for just multiplayer. It should have been 50 since multiplayer occupies about 80% of the hours you play a game. This is a good deal faggot.

TF2 was actually a balanced complete game on release. Most adds were cosmetic and/or fan created.

>>315685513

He's loosely connecting the corruption storyline from Asagi (Fact she was kidnapped, raped alot, then kills her boyfriend [whose technically already dead]) to Widowmaker (Fact she was kidnapped, brainwashed to killing her husband). The fact that Asagi has a skin tight uniform that is purplish in theme, and her demon form is blue.

I'm guessing.

>>
>>315685824
The fact that you've heard this multiple times despite me only posting that once says she's obviously the tumblr rep.

She's a chubby, sexually innocuous girl. Obviously meant to appeal to girls who are offended by hyper sexualized video game characters AKA tumblerinas. Is that so hard to understand? You can't even begin to concede that point? Do you really insist on being a dense piece of shit?

$40 is perfect for keeping ruskies and Hues out of the game, also I don't get why do you ask for a campaing of some sorts, nobody plays them and they end up being 6hs max

You have a point, but if I get a complete game when I buy it that I can have fun with for a decent amount of time I'm fine with selling skins and crap like that that I'll never pay for anyway, as long as the devs don't forget about the actual game in favor of just shoveling more skins in. From a dev's point of view I can't really see why you wouldn't add cosmetics, people who don't buy them (like me) have their full game anyway and anybody else who feels like they've got money to literally waste can go ahead and spend.

This game is going to have a 5 month period of hype and it will die just like HoTS. There is no reason at all this game can't be F2P. None. The excuses for why it's not are bullshit. The excuses why it's a pay to play are nothing but excusing away blizzard's greed. Doesn't matter it'll maintain, it's group of blizzard fan boys and thats it just like every blizzard game.

Question: Wanted to confirm: If you buy game, do you get all heroes+future heroes? Or will you have to buy future heroes as well?

Answer: only 21 heroes in the game. Very robust, game plays well. It's a future decision whether or not to support more heroes. Focus on fleshing out other parts of the game right now. Want game to be healthy and not overwhelming.

TL;DR: They didn't think about future heroes yet.
