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. |

Yea not optimistic about getting in on the initial waves but one can always hope.

Beginning to think bastion and hanzo need nerfs ;p

Just look at the numbers, Heroes never got near 200k viewers, ever (i dunno if it ever got 100k). Overwatch got that instantly.
And Heroes is a success, its just that Overwatch might be a gold mine like Hearthstone.

I can only hope. I’m so tired of the 45 flavors of gritty military shooter in the future/present, sometimes with jetpacks. Some cartoony action is well over due.

On reddit I saw some people had a download/install button but no access, so probably best to check the website.

omfg the twitch numbers. The hype was really real. Or they just gave any known streamer beta access from the looks of it.

Lirik tends to do that. For literally any game.
|
Well there are really big streamers playing it right now, Lirik alone has like 1/4 of the total viewers

Hearthstone (and frankly most games) was like that too, a couple of streamers will eventually take like 80% of the viewers.
|
I can see the playability value of the game but in terms of spectating...? Not so sure.
|
I'm enjoying just watching random streams.
|
A lot of people are comparing the first day of Overwatch to the first day of Heroes. Heroes had a much more negative reaction from chats of streamers on the first day, Overwatch reactions seem about as positive as twitch chat can possibly be.

no probs man go play your dead game(s) l0l I heard QL is now on steam for $10
I have played all of those games moderately competitively (QW, q3, QL, TFC, HLDM) to name a few, and am looking forward to playing Overwatch. At least I don't have to swap to CS if I want to play FPS - can't remember the last time I enjoyed that game.

Expected better from someone with a quote by Cooller in their sig :x
