[QUOTE=EuSKalduna;50374005]Perfect. So it's not like Dota where I have to pause the entire match because my gran is up to shenanigans[/QUOTE] Yeah it's not slow paced, you don't have to worry about that.
[QUOTE=EuSKalduna;50374005]Perfect. So it's not like Dota where I have to pause the entire match because my gran is up to shenanigans[/QUOTE] The longest game I was in while playing the Open Beta was around 15 minutes. It was so long because we were so evenly matched at the last point in overtime.
Blizzard took the most boring concept (compared to all the other variety of characters) of the game "a former soldier" and made him so fucking cool.

Out of curiosity, is the Overwaifu tournament still on? I'm generally not really one for waifu shenanigans, but having a competition between mono-hero teams of our favourite characters sounded like a ton of fun.
So this, alongside Paradox games are probably going to be my day to day workhorse. Go team
I hope you can buy Origins content post release. I really want those skins but I just can't shell out the cash at the moment.
[QUOTE=Raidyr;50374093]I hope you can buy Origins content post release. I really want those skins but I just can't shell out the cash at the moment.[/QUOTE] This has only been done once before - Warlords of Dreanor's around a year and a half afterwards.
[QUOTE=Raidyr;50374093]I hope you can buy Origins content post release. I really want those skins but I just can't shell out the cash at the moment.[/QUOTE] Blizzard typically sells their special editions after launch, though I don't know if they'll let you "upgrade" at a certain point.
Is there any unclaimed Genji animated avatar out there somewhere, I like Soldier but he's not one of my favourites
There was an awesome zenyatta pose one that was too big posted earlier :(
soldier 76 is my fav because hes just cool as fuck. plus hes the most regular person of the entire cast.
[QUOTE=codemaster85;50374208]soldier 76 is my fav because hes just cool as fuck. plus hes the most regular person of the entire cast.[/QUOTE] I dunno man, McCree seems more regular to me. S76 -experimental super soldier genetic treatments that made him stronger, faster and more durable than everyone else -has auto aim technology -has an advanced healing field generator that can heal any kind of wound -has a high-tech assault rifle/rocket launcher combo gun McCree -normal dude apart from having one robot arm -uses a normal, low-tech revolver -uses ordinary flashbang grenades -can do a combat roll

To me at least.

I'm a bit upset that the only place you can get a Tracer statue seems to be on Blizzard's website and shipping/customs would probably royally screw me over on top of the actual $150 it costs.

[QUOTE=codemaster85;50374362]76 is literally just a soldier, not a cowboy running around with a BAMF belt buckle.[/QUOTE] A soldier with the aforementioned genetic treatments. And he's far from your stereotypical green-helmet-and-camo-fatigues soldier, too.
i splurged and got Origins Edition. I was gonna buy it eventually, but I figured I'd get everything i could now and all that.
I'm happy that all the Origins skins are either for characters I don't play, or worse than the characters default skin. Easiest $20 I've ever saved.
[QUOTE=codemaster85;50374362]with a BAMF belt buckle.[/QUOTE] I know Blizzard likes to crank it to max whenever they make a silly joke, but there is 100% no fucking reason The Man With No Name type cliche would have any reason to wear a belt buckle stating how much of a badass motherfucker when he would be busy being a badass motherfucker.
[QUOTE=kobalt;50374390]I'm happy that all the Origins skins are either for characters I don't play, or worse than the characters default skin. Easiest $20 I've ever saved.[/QUOTE] I didn't like all of them but I liked some of them which is why I got it for as cheap as possible.
[QUOTE=Banned?;50374407]I didn't like all of them but I liked some of them which is why I got it for as cheap as possible.[/QUOTE] Yeah, the Tracer and Bastion ones I really like. But I never play either of them. I also like Strike Commander Morrison, but I prefer Grumpy Grandpa.
I really like Tracer's slipstream skin, but I can't justify spending £15 just for that, and all the other bonuses are worthless to me. I do hope they put the skins on the store later down the line. I'd happily buy the slipstream skin just on it's own for £5.
[QUOTE=kobalt;50374390]I'm happy that all the Origins skins are either for characters I don't play, or worse than the characters default skin. Easiest $20 I've ever saved.[/QUOTE] It's only $10 here though. $70 for the base game through Blizz, $80 for a physical copy of Origins through JB Hifi. If I wasn't telling Blizzard I lived in Murrica so I could get the base game for $55, I'd totally get the Origins edition since it's only a tiny bit more.
[QUOTE=kobalt;50374415]Yeah, the Tracer and Bastion ones I really like. But I never play either of them.

The pre-order Widowmaker skin is awful though, and I think the Reaper skin is dumb. Strike Commander is meh imo.

Strike Commander is meh imo.[/QUOTE] Pre-order Widow looks way better than default IMO. The dreads really make it look Predator-like which instantly makes it better than just generic mmmmm yeah skintight bodysuits gotta get THAT ASS oh right and give her some night vision goggles or something i dunno
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;50374473]You're implying any of us will be able to sleep tonight when overwatch comes tomorrow[/QUOTE] Sleep is required for optimal performance. You wouldn't want to disappoint your waifu by underperforming would you?
