Re: Overwatch

If any of you receive an extra code for the early access beta on PS4 and wouldn't mind parting with it, I'd appreciate a hook up.

Re: Overwatch

Just a heads up if you pre-ordered from gamestop you can enter your code and preload the beta it will show up in your library as "music player".....Candy man I saw on reddit yesterday that they may have extended the cut off for early access "possibly up to the release of it" it could be worth a shot

Re: Overwatch

Amazon does state that if you pre-order you can get the code within 2 business days, no "pre-order by date is given" so it technically should still be valid.

I pre-ordered just now to see if I get a code, we shall see. Either way I'll be canceling it soon after I get or don't get the code and will just pick up on release day if I end up liking it.

Let us know your thoughts, I'm intrigued by this game.

The following is Jare's initial thoughts while he was starting out.

Advanced warning it's very "cartoony" and colorful, might turn some people off. Very opposite of a game like siege or even the Division.

Looks like the four classes of characters are assault, tanks, healer, and engineer/support (one guy has turrets, one guys ultimate shows the enemy team on your map for 10 seconds etc).

I'm going through the training mode testing all the heroes, gonna join that fearme guy for a match after I decide which one I wanna play as first. I'm leaning toward this tank called Dva who is a chick that pilots a mech. You can fly around vertically as your movement ability and the ultimate is you detonate it like a huge nuke.

The default guy you start as is called soldier 76 his ultimate is an auto aim mode it's kinda cool.

There's a career profile page that keeps track of your stats.

Apparently nobody goes support so whoever picks their character last gets stuck with that class. According to fearme at least. I dig turrets, as we all know, so I won't mind that.

Pretty good write-up on each character.

Re: Overwatch

I'm playing with fearme right now. Will write down some thoughts after some more matches

Biggest challenge for me right now is being totally unfamiliar with the heroes and their abilities

Re: Overwatch

If anyone else is in the closed beta apparently getting 2 codes was on purpose. One for you and one to give away, let there be love for Bolt and I. Lol.

Any luck? (10 char)

Nah, they said it could take up to 2 business days to get the code.

I just canceled it, the open beta is on the 4th which is one more day so it's really not worth it.

Meh oh well, I wasn't dying to play it so I don't mind. I can understand how it would be important to others though.
