BrianBoitano posted:Also buy the bundle BEFORE you open chests! That way, when you open chests, you get shards for duplicates. If you open chests first and get something in your bundle, tough poo poo But if you open all your chests and get a bunch of heroes, then you can more appropriately get the bundle with the most heroes you don't have. I guess it depends on how many heroes you currently own.

I got like 3 legendary skins I would have bought if they weren't expensive (terran Muradin, xenomorph Diablo, etc) and I got Genji for free, so I'm content with my pack haul. Somehow wound up with barely any sprays or banners Any complaint about getting D.va vs. Deathwing is null because we get a po po Dva skin

Loot chests are fun when it's a rare, two epics and a legendary. They suck when it's 'as many commons as we can stuff in, btw they're all dupes.' Spent a few thousand re-rolling poo poo epic chests, but eh, I'm getting way more than I'm losing. Now time for the veteran chests, which I only got 3 of, not 4, because HotS 2.0 Player Level is way lower than the HotS 1.0 Combined Hero Level. I think at this point Starcraft 2 is Blizzard's only game that doesn't have some form of RNG reward system in it. Hearthstone card packs, loot boxes in Overwatch and Heroes of the Storm, D3 and WoW are all RNG when it comes to loot...

It's gonna use a Dota International Compendium style system, I believe. Most likely there will be unlockable skins for every race variant of every unit and building, like Purifier/Tal'Darim Protoss, Primal Zerg, etc etc.

I re-rolled a veteran chest because it had two commons and I hoped to get better. Re-rolled chest had three commons.

Granted I never played it that much (don't even own the Zerg and Protoss expacs). I don't know poo poo about Dota though other than every time I try to watch it my eyes glaze over. Is it going to be loot box esque? Just keep playing matches and eventually you'll get a few random unit skins? edit: Those air horns when you open a legendary could not be more appropriate cause I just pulled Azmodunk.

SKULL.GIF posted:Buy your megabundle before you open your chests, so you get shards for any duplicate heroes you get. I remembered this after I had opened a few epic chests. Fortunately I didn't suffer for it. The Zul'jin I ended up pulling was a dupe because of it, and dupe legendary heroes are worth 400 Also unless I'm missing something they also imported Overwatch's "no, you can't just buy the specific skin you want with cash, you have to keep opening boxes until you either get it or get enough shards to buy it" deal. Which is probably my least favorite aspect of OW's loot system.

If you get anything higher than the level of the chest (rare out of common) you're +EV. If you get double rares out of a rare you're +EV. This doesn't change if your rare is an actual item or just shards.

I wish I would have known I was going to be level 299 in 2.0; an extra veteran chest would have been nice.

Here's my 2.0 experience: Made a 5 man with goons to get the Genji stuff. Champed champs to Hammer, Ready button vanished. Clicked on store and mini ready button reappeared, clicked it and it said 5/5 ready but we don't start a game. Clicked back to hero select and every UI element around the ready button became unhidden and overlapped each other (Ready button, 5/5 queued up, looking for game, small ready button from shop etc.). Tried to drop group and rejoin, as soon as i did it put the rest of the group in an ai game as a 4 man.

I'm probably really bad at this game, but I need a group for the Overwatch stuff. Anyone completely new and ideally in it for the same reason as me feel like joining up? Nopadet#1968

if there are 10 people in a queue and all of them have collectively banned every map do you just not play? Sounds fun.

So what determines your player level? Mine is hella low for playing 2 years. Mine is a 24 to the left of Player Level, and then it says 424 below where it says Player Level.

It's all your individual hero levels combined.

Zivilyn Bane posted:I didn't even know there was an update in the works for SC2. Granted I never played it that much (don't even own the Zerg and Protoss expacs). Yeah it's going to basically be a progression system that unlocks poo poo for playing the game, and it'll probably be very similar to the current SC2 and HotS progression systems: play as Zerg and unlock skins for everything but especially Zerg skins, etc. Playing regular Multiplayer and Co-Op was both supposed to work but it's been a few months so who knows how they'll change it before they give out more details and start to hype it. If you liked playing SC2's story mode, Co-op commanders are available for everyone (even if you don't own the game, I think, owning LotV just unlocks some extra commanders) and is is really really awesome and fun with constant updates and new commanders. There's a thread for it here on the blizzard subforum if you wanna look into it.
