[QUOTE=Steel & Iron;50376982]I think you overestimate the servers.[/QUOTE] Well a few pages ago i was told off for accusing Blizzards servers of being shit (I only know this from WoW experience from the past 3 expansions)
If the open beta went fine, launch will be fine too. I doubt there will be more people than when it was free to play.
I have become one with the iris and come to terms with comcast being a lazy piece of shit gonna work late tonight, and when I go home I'm gonna just work on organizing the house because it's all still a big maze of boxes from the move. Should just take the second half of tomorrow off (comcast window is like 1-3pm) and then take time to relax and play. Probably for the best anyways, even for blizzard and having dealt with nearly 10m beta testers (did we ever hear peak concurrency?), I expect servers to feel some pressure for the first few hours
With some luck I should be back from volunteer work in time to play.

I doubt there will be more people than when it was free to play.[/QUOTE] Every single beta Overwatch has had, even the streamer-only phase, had a few login problems here and there. Servers are going to at least choke a bit on release, maybe not the same night as the release since a lot of people have work and whatnot, but within the next day I bet so.
The beta was mostly fine aside from a couple of times where you would be in the middle of a match then suddenly in the main menu with no warning Over the week that only happened about 2-3 times though
i gotta convince the people that owe me money to give me at least $40 or i'm gonna go nuts [editline]23rd May 2016[/editline] "go nuts" is hyperbole but i don't wanna miss the launch really, and it's disappointing that i'll probably not be able to play the game until autumn or something
Finally, today is the day I get to reunite with the best girl D.Va :excited:
7 hours, aka 1 AM my time, debating how I should approach this. All-nighter or going to bed super early. :v:
All-nighter, duh.
I have my bananas, nuts, and orange juice ready. I'm summoning my fore-fathers with the sacred candles as I prepare for 30+ hours straight of Overwatch.
Ugh... morning will be 3 hours earlier for me in May 24th. :v: See y'all in game soon, i guess.
[QUOTE=Grandzeit;50377166]7 hours, aka 1 AM my time, debating how I should approach this. All-nighter or going to bed super early. :v:[/QUOTE] Go to bed now and wake up ealry. I think I will do that so I can play some hours before work tomorrow.
Gonna' try to figure out Genji once I'm back in the game. He never quite clicked for me in the Beta.
I'm surprised there's so little hype in this thread. I mean, the game's out soon, come on guys :v:

[QUOTE=wootmonster;50377274]I'm surprised there's so little hype in this thread. I mean, the game's out soon, come on guys :v:[/QUOTE] This thread has 78 pages in a week, halfway to close, the game isn't even out, and you say there is little hype. Not including how fast the previous thread closed even after the beta ended.
I still don't see any hype, I haven't even seen that many avatars around like battleborn had
I'm kinda glad I'm only getting my copy tomorrow (hopefully?). Not sure I could have resisted the temptation of launching the game at 1AM :v:
[QUOTE=wootmonster;50377274]I'm surprised there's so little hype in this thread. I mean, the game's out soon, come on guys :v:[/QUOTE] The wait for release has drained the life out of us
I hope I get my key in time
[QUOTE=Rufia;50377261]Gonna' try to figure out Genji once I'm back in the game. He never quite clicked for me in the Beta.[/QUOTE] Me too, I ummed and ahhed between Tracer and Genji for the length of the beta.
anyone who ordered from cdkeys.com should check their email, my key just arrived
Am I the only one who can't play this game for more than an hour without needing a break? I really like it, and even if I'm steam rolling and unbeatable, I feel like I can't play for more than an hour or so without just needing to take a break for a couple hours
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50377353]Sitting down and staring at a screen will make anyone need a break[/QUOTE] Only if you're a fucking casual
[QUOTE=MarioInATopHat;50377334]anyone who ordered from cdkeys.com should check their email, my key just arrived[/QUOTE] I assume they are trustworthy? Tempted to get Origins but I don't want to pay 60 quid on battle.net. Even then it's 47 or so on that so it's an improvement.
if you don't mind waiting for shipping, origins edition is apparently 47 bucks on amazon, neat [img]http://i.imgur.com/utIU9IG.png[/img]
