Please be advised:

We will be closing this General thread in 24 hours. It will remain searchable.

After that we will require new threads to discuss topics.

Questions should go in the stickied Q&A thread, screenshots and PotG will go in the PotG sticky, QQ/Rage/Complaints should go in the QQ/Rage thread. If you want to talk about maps or strategies open a new thread.

Any comments or concerns will be logged please forward them to ZeromuS. This new forum is still fluid so we will try this out. General TL rules will still apply to new threads.

It seems like there should be an easy way to make a stopwatch-like mode that is more fair than a straight stopwatch implementation. I used to play a competitive game called Day of Defeat where every 15 seconds (or 30 or 60 depending on the map) there was a "tick" and the game would count how many flags were capped by each team and add points to each team's score. On payload maps, you could use the same kind of tick scoring, but have the defensive team be the only team that can score points (by holding the payload forward), so in the 2nd half once the defensive team passes the other team's score, they win...

Anyone with a potato computer who got into the beta? I'm unsure if I'll be able to run it (and only have my laptop which is more of a work-machine than anything else). I know my processor (Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4310U CPU @ 2.00GHz) is falling short of the recommended and I lack dedicated video ram (but otherwise have a surplus so should be fine), but I'm unsure if this completely disqualifies the game from being able to run at e.g. low settings.

How do you guys judge the longevity of this game.
Does it get boring fast? Do you see yourself playing this for years?

Low voltage laptop integrated graphics is not going to cut it.

Don't get me wrong - I appreciate your response, but people said the same thing about Skyrim, Fallout, Diablo, and CS:GO... All of which it manages decently. Hence why I'm interested in hearing what experiences others with an actually potato-pc have.

I was certain you had to pre-order to gain access to the beta?

EDIT: With no option of canceling your pre-order after beta-access was given.

Pre-ordered account will just have access earlier than the open beta, but there will be a real open beta (for anyone) if I read correctly.

Those who pre-ordered will get Beta on May 3nd, everyone else can get in on the 5th.

Hero diversity helps alot + Blizzard long time support. No modding will have a negativ impact far down in the future. But who knows Blizzard scares me with Overwatch a little, doing things I wouldn't expect them to do.

So I see me playing it longer then most fast paced fps games I played before. Even longer then UT, which took a few years to get boring for me.

no MOD-ing and the announcement that $40/$60 pays for all future multiplayer stuff. The only way to generate additional cash a year from now is via PvE content and cosmetic items. I hope we get PvE content in the future.
