Kiriko is an immediate unlock for current OW players who claim the free founders pack at least...or am I reading that wrong?

adhuin posted:Yes, but future heroes will either unlock by paying for Premium pass, play free battle pass to lvl 55 or after the season you can purchase it with the new currency. Right yeah, I knew that. Just wasn't sure about the wording wrt Kiriko being an immediate unlock for current OW players. But lol, the next hero release is gonna be interesting. Playing on a team with a player who hasn't unlocked the new and likely broken hero yet but the other team does sounds lovely lol.

Jack B Nimble posted:Hero monetization aside, how was the beta mechanically? The big issues I recall from the end of OW1 was balancing the TTK on tanks (making a tank vulnerable while being healed leads to them being deleted when not being healed?) And too many barriers? Do I have that right? How is that now? Matches feel more arcade-y/deathmatch-y imo. Brigitte seems like a good pick still.

Gravitas Shortfall posted:Stylosa has broken it down and it turns out you'll only have 540 coins if you do all of the battlepass, which isn't enough to buy a battlepass. So battlepass will always have a cost. At least they sell a 500 coiner pack for $5. So... grind to get the 540 coins from the BP, then drop another $5 of real monies to get the next one. Ehhh, lol.

Strong Sauce posted:Just want to confirm, have they said what the coins in OW1 will translate to? Will it not work on anything OW2 related? tried reading their OW2 Battle Pass explainer but it didn't really say. quote:Original Overwatch Credits will carry over into Overwatch 2 for players to use in the hero gallery on core launch cosmetics for new heroes. For example, each of Kiriko, Junker Queen, and Sojourn have 2 legendary, 1 epic, and a few rare skins available to purchase with either Credits or the new Coins. In addition, original Overwatch Credits can be used to buy other always-available items in the Hero Gallery for the 32 original heroes and some launch items in new cosmetic classes (for example 5 new Weapon Charms) as well.

adhuin posted:Imagine being Plat DPS on OW1, waiting 30 minutes for a match and then getting a leaver/thrower or otherwise bad match? I don't have to imagine it. I've lived it. ~90 hours of competitive play was enough for me to take in. I have zero interest in the ranked experience anymore as a result, lol. I might dive back into competitive for OW2, but ehhhh, I have so much more fun loving around in arcade modes if my stack isn't around for QP.

Teriyaki Koinku posted:Anyways, is it still fun to play as Junkrat/Roadhog/Mercy in OW2, at least? Those are my main picks for each of the class roles in OW1. They keep loving with Mercy's superjump mechanic and I'm not sure which implementation is going to be in the game on Oct 4th, but otherwise, she's about as fun as she was in OW1 imo.

Hanzo and Genji are also based off samurai and ninja archetypes who use a longbow and katana/ninja stars respectively, so that argument of Kiriko being some ninja priestess who uses kunai and talismans is dumb. Especially so since apparently her lore is intertwined with the Shimada bros. Her kit is clearly influenced by NINJA VANISH! poo poo too, so I dunno. Those arguments are weak imo. [edit] Hammond's lore is tied to Winstons, right? What else is there to know? Lmao. I do want to hear of his exploits in the wasteland though. Is he like the Junker Queen's top advisor? Lmao. teagone fucked around with this message at 01:56 on Sep 19, 2022 |

Doin' triage for my team as Mercy while juking fools on the enemy team with GA shenanigans is still -- and will probably always be -- super fun for me. Really excited to mess around with Kiriko's kit. Wall running and "TP get the gently caress outta dodge" sounds fun as a support.

It's really a blessed existence This is true and why I have the most hours on him, lol. [edit] I think most of my time playing the OW2 beta I was on Bap because his rework was really good, and familiarizing myself with JQ in the recent beta to get better at the tank role for my 3 stack (since the other 2 don't play anything else other than DPS or heals). teagone fucked around with this message at 23:29 on Sep 19, 2022 |

On OW, select 'check for updates' under the gear icon. It'll say in green text that you've preloaded pre-release content under the play button after the DL finishes.
