remember how bored kids used to waste their lives in front of the tv then they all cut the cord and so instead they waste their lives in F2P online games Overwatch is aimed squarely at that demo except that it costs $40; it's so casual it makes COD look like ARMA

how does the economy work in Overwatch anyway, can you just buy skins etc? trade them? if not is blizz just relying on one time purchase fee for revenue? season pass, xpacs etc?

Berious posted:A PC shooter without a server browser is some shameful poo poo. gently caress matchmaking. The game could be great with persistent servers and a browser; I got bored of vanilla TF2 quickly but low grav instant respawn orange kept me coming back for ages And no deathmatch mode, no scoreboard it's so millennial it hurts

Germstore posted:Deathmatch makes absolutely no sense for Overwatch. If you want a deathmatch mode the closest thing that makes sense would be a mode where you fight for control of points- which already exists. plenty of people have been playing TF2 DM for years now, why not OW

If you're playing UT or whatever and want to find a game with these mutators on that custom map etc etc then yeah server browsers are good but for a game like Overwatch where everything is put out by the developers (or TF2 where all the custom stuff sucks massive poo poo) then there's no point except for feeling like a cool PC user guy. how to spot a former PC gamer

I just found out this game has achievements each class has two that award sprays (pixelated and chibi style) and some of them are pretty fun (Earthshatter->Fire Strike->Charge an enemy with Reinhardt) and challenging (get a scoped headshot kill while flying through the air as Widowmaker) http://overwatch.wikia.com/wiki/Achievements

I'm sure they'll roll out DOTA 2-tier spec/record/analyze/etc features eventually but for now I guess they figure twitch exists and anyone with a big enough hardon to record/stream/analyze themselves is already using it

last 3 achievements are kicking my rear end (lucio and both zenyatta), I wouldn't mind so much if I actually enjoyed playing either but Lucio is pants on head and zen still melts like butter

ya but unlike the rat you need to stay LOS to do anything and you have zero escapes if the other team notices you're a problem a good pick against those godawful 3 tank turtle teams but otherwise there's easier ways to put points on the board

moonmoon's a good streamer and is doing a good charity stream right now for baton rouge, featuring lots of roadhog, d.va and stupid donator challenges, I got him to play a round as Reinhardt with no shield for $50 https://www.twitch.tv/moonmoon_ow

Dr. Tim Whatley posted:Lmao you gave $50 bucks to a scammer to play a video game, a bad one, at that. according to my bro in law who used to be in charge of their video player, twitch runs their charity streams airtight but ya it's not like I have some way of knowing if twitch redirects my moneys to their ball pit fund or something
