I got onto Heroes of the storm alpha and overwatch beta, love them both.

Open beta started yesterday I think

same. both are awesome.

Oops, looks like it started last night for non-preorders.

Hopefully I can give it a try tonight, otherwise I'll check it out this weekend.

All tanks are good. Lucio is OP as **** healer. Soldier76, Mccree, Reaper, and Tracers play like typical FPS. Genji the ******* ninja is OP as hell.

Tracer in Heroes is such a pain.

Torbjorn is OP vs newbs, but can be countered if you know what youre doing

Yup. Overwatch is pretty fun.

Kept playing with a bunch of noobs who have clearly never played TF2 before though...people's awareness of capture points and cart status was not very good.

Although I think the game also didn't do a good job of saying "hey, here's how the maps work..if you stand on the point...they can't take it back from you..."

Looks like a solid game...good thing I kept those shares :)

Really, the entire time, I was just hoping for the tf2 soundbyte of the soldier yelling "get on the point!"

Thought the game would be more moba-like. Instead it felt like a normal fps with matchmaking to keep even teams. Wonder if they plan to expand maps to other game types (like multiple capture points instead of just one). Also wonder if player created maps will exist...

they have a weekly thing where they change the rules - ex: only headshots, or all tanks, or multiples of same heroes are allowed, etc.

So we've moved from reading charts/hoping for 10% pops all the way to video games?

1000


I mean...it's not 10% but I'll take it! And given how good this beta feels, I think Overwatch could be a good moneymaker.
