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

New hero and the new maps look fan-fucking-tastic. I am really excited for this game. Hopefully it will run well on my set up.

so any news on when beta is out

I think it is safe to say this thread will blowup when it is announced.

so are there any downsides to soldier 76 or will he literally be the god character

[QUOTE=Anderan;48406809]I think it is safe to say this thread will blowup when it is announced.[/QUOTE] Not only this thread I think. [QUOTE=BeardyDuck;48406886]so are there any downsides to soldier 76 or will he literally be the god character[/QUOTE] One of his abilities is just a sprint and his aimbot thing can be countered just by getting out of his range,wich means that : Tracer's blink,Reinhardt's shield,McCree's flashbang and roll and Widowmaker's grappling hook can make him useless or less effective if you can use them to reach a safe place ou of his vision. He won't be OP I think,just annoying

[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;48406886]so are there any downsides to soldier 76 or will he literally be the god character[/QUOTE] Jack of all trades, master of none. His heal is a small AOE with a slow heal over time making it only useful outside of a fight. His mobility is lower then most by just having a sprint with no verticality. And his aimbot can be avoided by getting out of range, and even then is on a long CD and still deals normal damage. He doesn't hit too heavy, but not too light. He isn't too tough, but not too squishy. He's a middle of the road entry point.

stream?

[QUOTE=Makzu;48408737]stream?[/QUOTE] [URL="blizzgc.com"]Yes [/URL] They might even give us the date of closed beta.

And Bastion has the same health as Reaper! Seems a little boring but i know they're trying to go crazy with the health/armor/shield distribution to make it more nuanced so it's fine.

Fall 10th guys.

:snip:

They stole Ster joke for the release date.

This stream is nothing but teases and old gameplay at the moment. Blizzard pls. Aaand it's close to the end. Why even bother? Especially since it's more scripted than some movies, Most Pointless Gamescom Stream.

Ok so here's a little summary if you didn't watched the stream : We learned nothing new No release date for the beta (but it's still planned for fall) The devs talked about Control Point and Payload (it will be the same as TF2) No buisness model announced Muselk said hello,I don't care about that guy but eh The devs sucked at the game It was boring

Well that was a waste of a stream...

[QUOTE=Skyward;48409024]Well that was a waste of a stream...[/QUOTE] Blizzard wasted 40 minutes on stuff [I]we already know[/I]

I feel like the stream was more of a " remember that we made an FPS,be sure to check it out !" and that the Battle.net section was a tease so we had to watch it incase of an actual beta release date.

This thread needs a funny refresher. [video=youtube;uBagFowxIFU]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBagFowxIFU&feature=youtu.be[/video]

Lúcio's gameplay preview is out! [video]https://youtu.be/-j6vpuRfdfU[/video]

might be late but some streamers are getting keys

[QUOTE=JerryK;48437958]might be late but some streamers are getting keys[/QUOTE] Source pls But if it's true... I was right, the beta is [I]soon[/I]. I will sacrifice something to appease the lizards of Bliz.

[QUOTE=JerryK;48437958]might be late but some streamers are getting keys[/QUOTE] Huh. Well, if this is actually a thing, we definitely know the beta is close now. I've developed a love for this game since its announcement, so I'm obligated to say that if I don't get in, [B][I]I will not be pleased.[/I][/B]

Holy fuck his music auras have humongous range.

Jesus this guy has so many bugs. [img]http://i.imgur.com/VElD2Z0.png[/img]

A guy on /v/ had an "Update" icon on the Overwatch section of Battle.net. But if you clicked on it will say that no network has been found. The beta might be happening sooner than expected.

This doesn't mean anything, at all.

so is it normal to have this pop up when hitting 'Update' button? [t]http://i.imgur.com/fXuq1UD.png[/t]

Finally something new, straight from /r/overwatch [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/wFsXXIX.png[/thumb] Genji is probably our much-coveted Ninja-Guy.

Three winners and still not another post?!? BUMP!
