Just apply some logic here. Look at Overwatch. Do you see $60 value in it? It looks similar to quite a few arena shooters which are free to play. Would you shell out $60 for a multiplayer only game which you don't even know if you're going to like?

>>315569137
>selling skins and characters

Will Overwatch have dedicated/private servers?
Will it have mods and custom user made maps?
Will it allow 2 vs 2 to 32 vs 32 players?

>Not free to play

Confirmed dead after two months, guess I'll have to go back to Dirty Bomb and TF2.

ded game

How fucking retarded has Blizzard become? I'm not even talking about becoming relentless jews, this is just bad business practice.

It's like they want all the time they invested into making a game to be for fucking nothing.

Is 60$ confirmed? Sources?

>>315569238

Being Australian I wouldnt expect it under 90

What you and I think is inconsequential. Each consumer has their own opinions and will make their own purchasing decisions.

You and I may think Overwatch isn't worth the price but that doesn't mean there aren't 5 million people out there that do.

Nothing wrong with that. There's been some games with that same "feature", and they're pretty good.

Now still paying for skins though (and potentially weapons considering this is Blizzard) is pure bullshit.

>>315569410
I'm looking at it from a market perspective here. These arena shooters are specifically designed for people with low end systems who just want to play games at little to no cost.

I don't think too many people are willing to pay full price for Overwatch because it has a similar level of content and style of gameplay to those games.

>>315569795
having unique classes makes it a moba?

>>315569829

On the bright side of this, I don't have to give Blizzard any more of my attention.

>>315569784
It still doesn't.
Once people actually play Overwatch they will realize how different it is from TF2, outside of the game modes the classes work differently.

Also, $40 or $60 are both too much. This is a multiplayer only game. I payed around $4 in Titanfall and still felt ripped off.

>>315570873
it's a founders pack

it'll be f2p when it actually comes out

Is everyone missing the "Origins Edition" part? The game is f2p, this is just a bundle pack that probably comes with everything and probably a few costumes.

>Origins Edition Includes:
>21 Heroes
>5 skins:Blackwatch Reyes (Reaper)
>Strike-Commander Morrison (Soldier: 76)
>Overgrown Bastion
>Security Chief Pharah
>Slipstream Tracer
>Overwatch-themed content for several Blizzard >Entertainment games:
>Heroes of the Storm™ - Tracer Hero
>World of Warcraft® - Baby Winston Pet
>StarCraft® II Portraits
>Hearthstone® Cardback
>Diablo® III - Mercy Wings
>No pricing on there but it sounds like quite a lot, >HoTS founders, anyone?

>>315567820
I thought it was going to be F2P?
Wellp I was almost considering giving this a try.
Fuck you Blizz.

>>315570593
I'm fine with that price. Shit I'd even be fine with $60 after a bit of grumbling because I can see myself sinking a lot of hours into it.

But it's really charging for the base game and including microtransactions is what's bothering me.

>>315567820
Why bright red? That just makes you stick out more.

BUT WILL THEY CHANGE THEIR THIGHS AND BUTTS?

>>315570873
Has it even been confirmed that it's not f2p? I think everyone here is overreacting here. Do you guys not know you can go out and buy Heroes of the Storm if you wanted to? It's not far fetched to think they're just selling a starter pack for people who want to waste money on a f2p game.

>>315570969
No, base game is 40, Origins edition is 60.

the base game is free

it has a collectors edition which comes with a bunch of skins and stuff for other blizz games like every blizz collecters edition has that you can choose to buy

To be fair, this is all leaks. It's probably supposed to be revealed tomorrow. There's a photo of a receipt someone got for purchasing the Origins Edition for 40 dollars.

What was Blizzard actually trying to do with HoTS? Create another competitive scene to compete with LoL and Dota?
The microtransactions alone make it not hold a candle to Dota and from what I've seen, the microtransactions in HoTS are actually way steeper than those in LoL; so it's not competing with LoL etiher.
So what the fuck were they trying to do with that DoA game?

>>315571648

Seconding that since the devs fucked up the balance in favor of competitive types who are a small minority amongst the already-small NS2 playerbase

I seriously hope it's still f2p, otherwise it will be dead on arrival

Selling characters when you can switch them when ever you want is a really bad idea too, makes it p2w

Hots wasn't f2p it was worst freemium model i ever seen. You can't unlock anything by playing you have to grind quest every day and in fucking 6 days you will get cheapest character and in a month you may get 10k character. This is belongs to mobile market not fucking pc. And i hope it won't be the case for Overwatch.

TF2 was never $60 or even $40.

You really shouldn't get your hopes up. HotS shows that they don't care about people who want to grind for champions. They only care about the people who do their dailies and then log off. That's how they want you to play, or pay them money.

Overwatch will have the same shitty model, I guarantee it.

Origins Edition clearly there for a reason. It's either collector's edition, and base game has a different price, or it's just additional content/early access to beta retail version, just like LoL or WoT had.

>people saying it's multiplayer only

There's no confirmation of that. It could have some kind of campaign.

It wasn't always that pcs have been able to emulate the ps2 and even the fact that they can emulate doesn't take away from how good it is. If you dislike the ps2 and it's amazing library you need to fuck off of /v/, you obviously don't like video games.

Halo also has a full fledged campaign, ya dingus.

>have to

not if you choose the free to play version. isn't it fucking obvious that this game is going to be f2p? jesus, do you think blizzard DOESN'T want to make money?

>tf2-like
>cosmetics
>heroes to sell

people are gonna shit that stuff up.

i'll probably get the $40 origins edition because its a small price to pay for those exclusives

I've never seen a game die this fast since Evolve.

>>315570031
yeah, paying 60$ for that sweet sweet single player cod

get real, people only buy it for online

Nobody's going to fucking buy this shit if it doesn't guarantee beta access as soon as you buy it.

>>315575332
the version without all additional shit costs 40$, so for 20$ you get a founders pack, and 40$ is barebones game. Cant you read?

>>315575252
Blizzard didn't make a statement about the game being F2P, but people here already decided that
Actually this leak doesn't prove it otherwise either, but people already think it's B2P, though as far as Blizzard games go it looks more like a collector's edition

How is this game dying? Why are PKeks so fucking angry just because more people get to play this?

>>315575412
And there's more than 3 maps and other kinds of modes in CoD.

Jesus Christ, I'm defending CoD over a Blizzard game. What the fuck is happening.

I know this is /v/ but please use your brain a little
The current rooster is 18 heroes, with 3 coming up, adding up to 21 heroes like the origin edition said. Heroes will be free, you can get some skins by commends at the end of the match or pay for them.

>And I always knew there would be a graphical downgrade eventually

Since it's on consoles, Sony and MS will pressure Blizzard to make the game identical across three platforms due to their parity clauses. So be prepared to have a game that looks just like a PS4 game that runs above 30FPS on twice as expensive hardware.

>>315574034
they did the same thing with HoTS, so I'd bet that it's similar

>>315569795

It's a MOBA and TF2 mix. That is why there is two camps arguing over which it is like. It is because both camps are equally correct.

>>315575412

last gen single-playerless console version is $50, still $10 than the physical edition of this game

the digital one being free

>>315575471
It's more about making a F2P game and slapping a $60 price tag on it than porting it to consoles.

Though, that doesn't help.

>>315569110
This, I hate this type of games and I fucking hate e-sports.

>>315575471
>implying anyone gives a shit about the game being on consoles
PC players aren't children who cry over exclusives like console users

>>315567820
This just means the TF2 fags will stay in their shitty f2p game. Good.

>>315575471
>$60 + microtransactions

It's not about multiplatform or your oh-so-important console wars. It's about pricing. Game's dead on arrival because of that.

Though I guess console kids will buy anything. So maybe consoles will end up saving Overpriced from failure instead of the other way around.

>Will Overwatch have dedicated/private servers?
Probably.

>Will it have mods and custom user made maps?
It will be made for consoles, and as such locked down.

>Will it allow 2 vs 2 to 32 vs 32 players?
It's a console shooter, expect 8v8 at best.

But nobody said it's F2P. Nobody said it's B2P either. If you know better than us then prove it. Blizzard doesn't include additional stuff in the retail release, unless it's a special edition. This shit includes additional stuff, and from the releases of HotS, SC2 and expnasions and D3 and expansion we can assume this is some kind of special release. Feel free to prove me wrong, if you find any confirmation that the base game actually costs money
