The fact that they automatically re-ban cheaters when they buy a new copy is glorious and amazing and it makes me laugh. That's the price for being dumb enough to cheat, let alone do it despite multiple warnings this was coming and this not being the first banwave. Seeing some of the responses pop up from said people through various outlets is fantastic. It's so funny how quickly the internet tough guy persona starts rearing its ugly head.

Is Duck and Cover banned? He defended the cheaters and seemed pretty angry.

Manatee Cannon posted:that'd be kinda lame since people that just happen to be higher level will have a much harder time getting the new boxes, plus at a certain point you literally can't get boxes anymore because you hit the level cap. that'll take a really long time and only matter for a few people, sure, but that's still something they'd have to take into account Is there an actual level cap? Once you hit level 100, you start over from level 1, and you get a star under your name. AFAIK the experience cost per loot box goes back down to what it was at level 1, too. Also, the experience cost plateaus at 22000 once you hit level 20 or 25 and remains there until level 100, so for the vast majority of your playtime, the cost will be the same.

Well I love BMX Reaper and I just want that sticker. I don't care about anything else. Also I managed to drop down from 38 to 30 on comp and then down to 29 last night. I'm not the worst player and I do really well in QP, so I give up. Bring on rank 19 I guess!

Thankfully there isn't a person whose gotten to the point where they can see what happens when you reach the very end of the level system.

Macaluso posted:The people paying for another copy of the game and getting instantly banned because they cheated in the first place should probably not have cheated in the first place!! Woah, let's not get hasty here. There's thousands of legitimate ways that this could have happened, like maybe they tripped, fell and accidentally installed a hack. Could happen to anyone. Could even happen to you. Are you willing to take that risk? Well? Are you?

There might be some legal recourse in that buying another licence to a product means that new license is subject to a new EULA condition? The people who engage in cheating though are more like to yell out for anonymous to help them like some kind of internet Batman though.

So, there's a limited amount of time to grind or pay for the new skins. Thats fine I suppose. The skins themselves aren't here for a limited time are they? I don't want to try and get them only for them to be pulled from the game when summer ends.

Funnily enough, the highest level that I can see on Masteroverwatch is 679 now, so in 2-3 months someone will actually be past 1220

Mommy and daddy won't give over CC info for this poo poo. If they do all seasonal/holiday stuff like this, pending they do holiday stuff, I won't mind it being like this. Pick up a few pieces each time, pending the game isn't dead in a year.

I wish I could get better at this game but instead I want to play almost every single hero (no Hanzo/Genji/Bastion though) so my ~15 hours logged are like 40 minutes with each one.

I really hope these boring Olympics skins aren't the only skins that we're supposed to be getting this summer. Would rather a beach party pack

Lol. Those boxes are amazingly lovely. Pay real money only for a box in which only one item is guaranteed to be one of the new ones. And of those new ones, the majority are going to be sprays. Oh, and if you get a dupe, it gets redeemed for coins you cant get the new boxes with.

Haha, I originally read it as every item would be the new stuff and one was guaranteed to be a skin. I'd drop a tenner on that. But if 4/5 are going to be dupes and one is going to be a stupid spray, that's insanely dumb.

I don't want to try and get them only for them to be pulled from the game when summer ends. They did it plenty of times in Warcraft. I have a dragon pet and tabard from the 2008 olympics you had to get lucky to get by playing PvP battlegrounds during a short window. They didn't bother putting it back in with any of the later Olympics. I could totally see these being a one and done, so good luck.
