In HotS, nothing is ever fine the way it is according to all the patch notes I've seen from Blizzard.

AttackBacon posted:Why no one has executed a proper PvE mode in these games is an absolute mystery to me and I suspect it would be wildly popular. The few data points I have seen in LoL and HotS have the vsAi game modes being extremely populated, even if you adjust for leveling bots. It'd be hugely popular, but probably doesn't happen for the same reason Hearthstone gets very little PVE content. Players chew through PVE content fast, while PVP content remains replayable much longer, especially in a F2P model game. That said I'm having a blast smashing AI bots learning what all the pretty buttons do. Played with a man on rollerskates shooting a fart gun today. It was magical.

The grenade passthrough change was great, but she is still pretty non interactive to play. Can't imagine how they would address that or improve her in any way without fundamentally changing her kit, though.

I'm happy with Heroes 2.0 because I got into one of these the other day and we started spinning in circles and dropping sprays and voice lines at each other in a mutual moment of silliness over the payload while the rest of our teams were loving about on the other payload.

She's not, though, because you're constantly moving your heal beam from teammate to teammate and dropping Safeguards on people. I mean it's not super complex but she's a support.

I know there's not much HGC posting/interest in here, but they announced that they are finally changing one of the biggest issues with the league: all games will now be played on the current live patch Much better considering they were playing on two major patches ago still

Yo so why is the Betrayer Illidan skin not named something like Shado-Pan Illidan or something. Cause that skin's warglaives totally have panda faces on them, and the pants are clearly based on the Pandaren art style. Meanwhile the description is just "Free after ten thousand years, Illidan would sacrifice everything in order to defeat the Burning Legion, prove himself superior to Malfurion, and redeem himself in the eyes of Tyrande." Like uh you really don't want to even briefly talk about the panda faces on your warglaives my dude edit: On the other hand I love that Lunara, Tyrande, Malfurion AND Illidan all have a skin where it's an alternate reality where Malfurion is the one who betrayed everyone, not Illidan.

Is there some way to change default loadout settings? There's 65 characters, and even if I need to pick individual skins, I'd like better defaults than that basic horse and announcer.

Well actually it used to be a swastika but then the PC police made them change it, hence the panda face.

Well what the heck!! Is there some actual backstroy about why his glaives had panda faces on them?? Also browsing through these skins, I can't believe how many of them have backstories attached to each other. Even Gazlowe and Sonya have a connection in one of their skins. Is there a list of these somewhere that shows which ones are all connected? There seems to be some super hero ones, and Gazlowe and Greymane both have circus ones for instance

Warden Tyrande, Betrayer Malfurion, Shan'do Illidan and Sentinel Lunara are all part of the same timeline I believe.

Some of the non-crossover skins are alright, but I still wish there were franchise crossover skins for every hero. They've generally been good, though I think Novazon's ults still don't fit the theme.

Macaluso posted:Well what the heck!! Is there some actual backstroy about why his glaives had panda faces on them?? In War3 the model was low-poly and tiny, so the panda faces were just an easily missable Samwise easter egg, I think. Now 15 years later or whatever on a high def recreation of that model they're very noticable and sort of odd. As far as I know there's no actual lore about them, and I don't believe the Warglaives of Azzinoth have them in WoW. I also like some of the skin backstories and lore. A personal favorite of mine is the alternate Azeroth implied by Warmaster Chen and Shadowpaw Li Li where the forces of Lei Shen go head to head against Azshara and the night elves for the Well of Eternity. It would have been a more interesting alt-history than Warlords of Draenor turned out to be.

The alternate universe where Murky is the main protagonist of Starcraft 2 instead of Jim Raynor is vastly more interesting imo.

There needs to be a superhero Murky skin where he's Super Sonya's comedy relief sidekick.

As far as I can tell it's not really divided up by week, it's like on the second week that's when the challenge itself unlocks but as long as you play the requisite number of games before the entire event is over you can get all the stuff any time between now and then. Think of it like a questlog.

You can do it during week 3, but you can't do the week 3 quest until you finish the week 2 one. It's like Hearthstone's gated expansions that released a new wing every week.

The only difference is that weeks 2-4, you can't get credit for it from vs. AI games. Gotta do QM, Unranked or Team League.
