[QUOTE=Ricenchicken;50235160]bastion would like to have a word with you[/QUOTE]
Not if Torbjorn get's to him first.
I just want to play Genji more, I've literally never been good at the low health+high mobility classes in any game ever but I did pretty good as Genji he was fun
Cant wait to play Reaper.
[QUOTE=Ax3l;50231245]I never knew Overwatched used stretch and squash animation techniques. I found out the hard way.

There's a really good GDC panel on the animation of Overwatch that covers the thought process behind some of the smearing with examples:

about 37 hours till overwatch! Pretty excited that my friends are finally getting in so I have someone to play with
I'm gonna roll around town with my bois as Zenyatta, capping ass with my balls of steel
I know its a long-long-loooong shot but does anyone have a [I]spare [/I]key? I've been waiting for a beta key since Overwatch was announced, but since I have more than 4,000 hours on TF2 I thought that I should at least try out the new game before I pay 40 euros instead of sticking with the good ol free game.

Thanks. I've been looking for more videos on the animations in Overwatch. This is super interesting.

Open beta is your best bet, runs between 5th and 9th
[QUOTE=HAKKAR!!!;50236426]Does Overwatch offer oceanic servers?[/QUOTE]
The Americas servers in Blizzard's games includes Australia and New Zealand.

did you still need an early key? i planned on giving it to one of my friends depending on whoever could play it the most but neither of them can give me a straight answer so fug them
also does anyone wanna team up? ill probably play with my friends too at some point, but they probably wont have much time to play. i really just like playing mercy a lot and supporting (hell all i did was play her for the weekend that i was able to) but i think i wanna try out dva too
[QUOTE=General J;50231359]that's really fucking cool actually. I can't think of a 3d game that's used animation style like that.
Only thing in Overwatch that I know I've seen like that was Roadhog's heal animation but didn't know it went to that ^ extent lol[/QUOTE]
It was very obvious in the first Jak & Daxter game, the ground pound animation had them literally stretching and squashing.
Sure, hit me up whenever you're up for a game or two.
EDIT: Although I'm not quite sure whether we'd be able to play together due to the fact that you live on the other side of the world. :v:
With that being said, I'm looking for someone to play with aswell.
I just pre-purchased Overwatch for PC. Will I be able to get into the early access beta tomorrow? Or did I pre-purchase too late?

Too late, IIRC.
[QUOTE=Skyward;50237349]Too late, IIRC.[/QUOTE]
Guess I'll have to wait a few more days :C
Awww shit open beta begins next week? Sweeet
[sp]too bad my toaster laptop will problably be unable to play it[/sp]
I keep looking at the icon on my desktop and getting frustrated
I hope the origin skins can be bought later down the line after the game releases. I loved tracer's skin but didn't care for the other skins and other goodies to pay $60.

Someone on Reddit said that in a ticket regarding this, the GM told him it got extended.
If that's true, you should still get in.

I want to say I agree but at the same time I did buy it now so I can have something exclusive.
Edit: Otherwise what was the point?
I still have a couple weeks to get a hold of $20 spending cash so I can upgrade to the Origin edition. So it's not like its a huge deal.
Welp, bought the origins edition. The PAX arena thing that happened last week sold me.
Can't wait for the beta :dance:

I just talked to a GM myself. They said that I should get into the early access and the 2nd is the latest keys should be handed out. They're giving them out in waves.
Does Zarya seem... half baked? I've been watching guides on her and her shields barely last any time or protect from any damage, and has little variety in non-ult abilities. On top of this, her DPS is super low unless for have the upgraded, yet temporary charge
She's not as good as a primary tank and shouldn't replace a reinhardt or Winston, but she can be an absolute menace in the right hands.
Not to mention pulling off her ult at the right time can win games.

the ult combo, man

I've said this a million times but no, Zarya is extremely good. Someone else described it way better than I ever could some pages ago.

I think a good compromise would be if the Origins skins were available to everyone, but only as drops. That way they're still rare, but there's still a chance for dedicated players to get them.
