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. |

CS:GO remains king. Also Valve will be happy that TF2 will survive because it had no chance if Overwatch was F2P. Comparing Overwatch to CS is like comparing StarCraft to Civilization. Both have a top down view and you click stuff with your mouse, but thats's it. Overwatch and CS are both First Person Shooters. And that's it. You keep telling yourself that. It does not make it true. Sc2 is king of RTS, LoL of MOBA, CS:GO of all FPS.
As declared by people who feel the need to rank this sort of non-sense.

I don't think it includes future content. They were pretty specifically saying that the game comes with all announced heroes.

They said on the floor that all future heroes would be free. I assume that does not preclude an expansion at a later day. But this is just a video game you install and play.

I think the game needs to have all heroes unlocked since much of Overwatch's balance is predicated on heroes countering other heroes. Like if they had a rotation and Bastion and Reinhart are F2P that week but there is no Tracer it would be insanely frustrating trying to deal with them.

I'm really curious what's about to come on the Overwatch panel. The lack of a single player is the reason it is $40. What do games with single player cost then 100$ ??? Most games when they launch cost $60... you do play other games, right?
This seems very competitive priced compared to CoD / Battlefront ect. Which I assume is why you can't get the $40 base-game on console.

Do we even know if there are going to be heroes coming out periodically? People keep assuming that, but we also assumed it was going to be F2P =p.

Would have bet on a 20-30 price tag. I hope the amount of content increases a lot for 40$.

No, but people like to assume things about this game and how it will be sold. Like that Blizzard is out there to trick us, even though the majority of their games are boxed releases.

Well, if they said on the floor that the future heroes are included, then it's safe to assume that there will be future heroes

They have said before that so long as they can think of cool heroes they will keep adding them.

I assumed that was referring to heroes between now and release, but then again the splash screen for pre-orders already says 21 heroes, which is everything revealed so far. So maybe 21 is all we get on release.

I know for sure I am not going to buy it for 40$. I was planning to try it if it was free and maybe if I get hooked buy something later in the expected F2P model.
Now? No chance I give them more than 20$, will need to wait until the price is lower and than maybe buy it if I don't have better things to play.

I assume that as well. I bet there will be a couple more heroes.

$70 AUD for the base edition. I'll still buy it because I thoroughly enjoy how the game looks and plays from what I've seen, but I'm more concerned about how big the scene will be with the amount of consumers this will cut out.
|
Perhaps you should be more concerned about the enjoyment you will gain from playing the game rather than the size of the scene?

I will probably buy this game for 40$ if I get into the beta and have even a small amount of fun.

God, i love D.Va.
Looks so much fun.
Although her handgun seems pretty damn strong.
|
Considering that SW:Battlefront costs 60 euro... 40 euro for Overwatch is pretty damn good.
IMO this model is 100% better than the dodgy F2P bullshit.
