Why would they show 5 characters from OW's launch, while Reinhardt uses the exact same abilities he has in the first game? This looks exactly the same.

You can cancel the charge, you now hold 2 charges of firestrike and the shield has less health (I guess to account for less enemies). Those are all pretty drastic changes, even if he doesn't have any ability overhauls

You dont have to actively watch the stream or anything. I usually just leave the tab muted (not the stream, but the chrome tab) when I want to farm drops. Just have to make sure they dont stop streaming; but Im sure Blizzard is paying them to stream through the day so

You can start working towards the 4 hour Twitch watch time requirement btw

They probably saw Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp made a butt load of money and wanted to stick their hand in the pot too

No more exclusivity = we know our streamers are going to run to YouTube so why not let them still stream on Twitch at the same time instead of losing them forever

These queue times are fucking stupid btw

10 minutes Tank
8 minutes DPS
3 minutes Healer

Let me play quickplay classic ffs

I just got access to the beta. No email. I had to check the Battle.net client

I mean for what it's worth, there's some really drastic changes to the gameplay from what I've read/seen

I'm interested because the game has felt stagnant for a long time which was sad imo

Sadly I do not have access yet

Ah I cant read youre right

Can't wait till it comes out fully, but I can't help but think this game would be much more successful if it were f2p.

If you own Overwatch you get access to OW2 multiplayer for free when it comes out. Jeff Kaplan had to fight hard for that.

Invites will be rolling out through the day kinda dumb because Id rather not have to watch stream for 4 hrs and then get an email later saying I got in anyways lol

I think the codes should go out in like an hour from what Ive heard

https://playoverwatch.com/en-us/beta/

You might still be able to opt in for a beta email here. Idk if you are guaranteed to get one if youre on the list tho

Yes and some of the hours are during working hours on east coast because it starts 11am pst. Lol

I signed up when this was announced so hopefully I get an email code

https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/overwatch/23798985/welcome-to-the-first-overwatch-2-pvp-beta

Starts today. If you didnt sign up for beta access/dont get a code email, you need to watch specific streamers for 4 of 8 active hours today to get a guaranteed code drop.

^ You might still be able to opt in here to avoid having to wait for the twitch drop.

Scyther is already perfect. Idgaf about weaknesses or whatever. He's got goddamn scythes for hands! You can't improve on that

all of these are objectively wrong

I only use Twitter to follow Smash players at this point

Glutonny wins Pound

Holy shit he finally did it

Drop dash is also apparently in the game

bump

Depends on the community. /r/smashbros is always a nice read with good discussion

He just keeps pushing out consistently funny shit every week

I would deliberately avoid most of you irl

Whos to say this isnt just another scheme for him to manipulate stock prices.

God solo queueing in this game is such a shitshow

Shouldve bought a case. Even if youre super careful with it, youre gonna drop it eventually

Never said it wasn't. I just don't have the judgement developed to know when to use it. Whereas Lithe I know that I can easily create a ton of distance at a vault, and I don't need to be injured to use it either.

Overcome is pretty cool too, which is why I'm currently leveling Jonah.

Lol M$ destroying the gaming industry singlehandedly

Microsoft doesnt own ActivisionBlizzard yet.

Covid killed any chance of a Switch Pro; its why we got OLED instead. Uses the same old chips but still a hardware update Nintendo can capitalize off of. News sources keep baiting it because they want clicks so badly.

I dont like Dead Hard anyways

So Im actually watching tutorials on how to evade killers Ive been doing it so wrong for the past 3 years I guess lol

I hardly ever run that perk even, tbh. It's just that Tapp is one of 7 survivors I still need to get teachables from and that's the only exhaustion perk I have on him lol

So this happened last night

Maybe her iridescent addon should be made (partly?) base kit... If she hits a survivor within 8 seconds of teleporting, 4 random tvs she's used turn back on

I honestly think she is weak. Still fun but a weak killer because theres so much downtime on her TVs.

Still find her a much more fun version of the stealth archetype than Wraith though.

after their parents were killed by Putin's troops, authorities say

So fucking evil.

Is it good on the Switch? Run smoothly?

Is it only multiplayer?

1) lol

2) Yes. Has crossplay too.

trappedunderice posted...

Too many cheaters.

I feel like I've run into a bot survivor once. Cheaters, I haven't seen since the last segment of time I was playing which has to be at least a year ago

Killer queue is faster than survivor queue usually

Apodyopsist posted...

I'll play survivor from time to time when friends invite me. Killer is so boring. I just wish they'd stop making killers that are just annoying to play against or have like 10 parts to their power.

Yeah some of them are fun, some aren't. I play Hag, Plague, Pig, Onryo... I used to play Spirit but haven't felt like it. And will pick up other killers randomly or if I have challenges for them

If you ever want to play lmk; there's a few people on the server that play

Genuinely surprised Among Us has stayed relevant this long when other big multiplayer games have come and gone so quick.

It is still a top seller on Switch eshop. Honestly Id be playing it if they actually added any significant content. Feels like theyre dragging their feet on any content updates

Just curious because I got back into it recently. Sadako from The Ring is a pretty fun killer (though I play much more survivor than killer)

Id rather not waste my weekend fighting over control of pixels

What a surprise, the horrible way they pushed out the PS3 is still biting them in the ass

I say that as someone who loved their PS3

LostForest posted...

Not for nothin dude but if you just want to exclusively play only people slightly below your skill level

That's not what I said but read it however you want. Not like I'll be around to refute it lol

Yeah but I'm done trying for now. Oh well.

Yeah I mean that didn't feel great either lol.
