Overwatch - The world needs heroes, and Blizzard needs a TF2 game! - Games

[QUOTE=Jericho_Rus;50215846]gimme ur paypal[/QUOTE] I know it's like 2€ and all but man that's awesome and you're awesome. Really grateful for the gesture. I could go on, but really; you get the idea. Kind words aside [img]http://i.imgur.com/ZJ9yXaX.png[/img] It's (almost) time to Overwatch

Not preordering till I actually get to play the game, but from what I've seen it looks goooooood.

Made a quick Gmod pic about... dunno, something. (Yea, i've managed to port D'va to Gmod and rigging is difficult as hell). [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/AU4JCE1.jpg[/IMG]

Why not use SFM for posters?

[B]Choose One:[/B] but i don't even have sfm / sfm is too hard / my pc isn't good enough for sfm / gmod is superior

[QUOTE=usaokay;50216482]You can preorder, get the early beta key, then cancel your preorder.[/QUOTE] Can I do it like you could apparently do with The Division, where you pre-order from Amazon, get your Beta key and cancel your order, all without ever being charged?

[QUOTE=usaokay;50216482]You can preorder, get the early beta key, then cancel your preorder.[/QUOTE] Did anyone of the preorders already receive a beta key and the widowmaker skin (key)?

Anybody knows when the emails with the extra early open beta key are being sent out?

[QUOTE=CrossNgen;50219116]Anybody knows when the emails with the extra early open beta key are being sent out?[/QUOTE] They said before or on may 3rd. So I asume that everyone will get it on may 3rd, try hard to download it, maximum downspeed will be 45kb/s and we'll be happily able to play overwatch 2 days later when the official open beta starts :v:

Jeeze, someone made a replica of McCree's revolver [img]http://i.imgur.com/VvzvE9k.jpg[/img]

I pre-ordered because the early access is going to be pretty much the only time during open beta that I'll be able to play. And because of the Bastion skin. Edit: I know it isn't for pre-ordering, but part of me whispered 'Get it now! You know you want to!' when I saw it.

[QUOTE=Breny;50220079]I really hope they don't do this. I pre-ordered because the early access is going to be pretty much the only time during open beta that I'll be able to play. And because of the Bastion skin.[/QUOTE] But the Bastion skin isn't for pre ordering.

[QUOTE]The Overwatch Open Beta client will be available for download on all supported platforms beginning at the designated launch times listed above: on May 3 (for Early Access) and on May 5 (for All Access).[/QUOTE] [QUOTE]Q. When will I receive my early access keys? A. All early access keys will be distributed on or before May 2, 2016. Q. How will I receive my early access key from a retailer? A. Your retailer will provide you with early access keys for your chosen platform. Distribution timing and methods vary by platform and retailer, so check with your favorite store for details.[/QUOTE] [url]http://us.battle.net/overwatch/en/blog/20100169/[/url] [url]http://us.battle.net/overwatch/en/blog/20055970/[/url]

I really wish there was a preload

I was lucky enough to get into the stress test and download it then. I do hope for the best for the people who need to download though.

[QUOTE=usaokay;50216482]You can preorder, get the early beta key, then cancel your preorder.[/QUOTE] Can you actually do this? I am very intrigued by this game, but unwilling to pay full price without trying it out first to see whether it's a game I'll play for longer than a few hours.

[QUOTE=meek;50221369]Can you actually do this? I am very intrigued by this game, but unwilling to pay full price without trying it out first to see whether it's a game I'll play for longer than a few hours.[/QUOTE] Then just play the open beta? The pre-order access is only 2 days ahead.

[QUOTE=Skyward;50221400]Then just play the open beta? The pre-order access is only 2 days ahead.[/QUOTE] I signed up for beta, but Battle net is not letting me download the game without purchasing it? What am I missing?

[QUOTE=meek;50221410]I signed up for beta, but Battle net is not letting me download the game without purchasing it? What am I missing?[/QUOTE] It doesn't start until may 5th.

[QUOTE=Skyward;50221422]It doesn't start until may 5th.[/QUOTE] Oh that's perfect then. Thanks! Looking forward to trying it out.

Will there be a wipe at the end of the beta?

[QUOTE=DEMONSKUL;50221455]Will there be a wipe at the end of the beta?[/QUOTE] Yup.

New comic out: [url]https://comic.playoverwatch.com/en-us/reinhardt-dragon-slayer[/url] You gotta be really stupid if you're gonna make an armored teddy bear with actual steel.

I dunno why, but there's something about OW's comics that dont quite click on me like the TF2 comics do

The writing is awful. There's no struggle, no suspense, and no humor either. Also the pictures are tiny as fuck, it's like they made this for print in mind, not web. Screens are horizontal, remember?

just download the pdf
