New Overwatch Trailer Looks Amazing.

Blizzard still best at making cutscenes and trailers... And that art style looks fantastic.

Overwatch is coming Spring 2016 for PC, PS4 and Xbox One. The game will be available for 40$ on PC, and it comes with all 21 characters and all the maps made by the team.

There is also special addition of the game called Origin Edition, priced 60$ for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.

Origin Edition comes with extra character skins for Overwatch and free bonuses for other Blizzard games. Standard 40$ edition have not been announced for Consoles..

The company has confirmed that maps and characters post launch will be released for free.

Best beta ever!

Dunno why so many people on here hate the game. But from what I played during the beta, I enjoyed the hell out of it. Battleborn also. ;)

I wonder how fast this will die on ps4/xbo, but it will certainly take off on PC.

What are your impressions?

Console shooter.

I'm... on the fence. I havn't played it yet though, but it seems to suffer from very console like qualities same as battlefront - no server browser, no mods, no anything... just a straight forward server finder with match after match... its like blizzard are TRYING to take PC gaming back 20 years and go in the opposite direction of all their other titles....

Looks solid, and polished, but ultimately without options.... RANKED play I can understand, but everything else should have lobbies/server mods/24/7 map servers. and bigger battles / maps... granted I know its going for a sort of MOBA hybrid...

Payload is crap as awell, one of the worst Team Fortress modes... its pretty much ALWAYS one sided.... their choice of modes are ones that end in 10 minutes EVERY time ... I like tug o war matches where you feel you earned your victories after a longer struggle .. OPTIONS BLIZZARD... REMEMBER THOSE?

@pelvist: lol it was revealed and hyped as a PC exclusive when it was first announced. I did mention that I thought it would come to consoles but PC fans would hear non of it and praised how cool it looked.

Guess it crap now to you since it can no longer be hyped as a PC exclusive even tho it's the same game as it was before the announcement of being on consoles?

Well its a mixture... low field of view, massive guns... less focus on aiming... and then the horrible lack of features that I mentioned in the previous post..

So yes, console announcement + actually seeing the feature set matches the low standards of console platforms... yes... its now "less than it could of been".

"Translation"

*announced for consoles, proceed to damage control*

Gotcha!

... Damage control what? I think my message is pretty clear... the game has barely any PC unique features that push every other Blizzard game... and the most likely reason is the intention of consoles from the beginning.

I for one couldn't care less if a PC gets a console version as long as it doesn't hurt the PC version, but yes it's a consoles shooter with shit frame times, low fov, aiming meaning shit etc.

Wow $40 for a multiplayer only game. I will not be supporting this garbage

This is on my watch list. I'm a big TF2 guy, so this looks appealing.

Preach.

Krelian's alt is back.

While you may be right....You may also be entirely wrong.

I've been watching some gameplay vids and it looks great so far. Definitely on my list of games to watch.

Plus it's Blizzard :)

@Cloud_imperium: I'm not surprised it has great trailers. It's Blizzard after all.

at first i didn't care about this title one bit. then seen some streams and it looked better than what i was expecting. then saw the totalbiscuit mini review and im kinda interested now. I haven't played the game but i see myself play a lot as Pharah if i were to get the game.

You are absolutely correct, It's a highly plausible theory, nothing more. Star Wars: Battlefront is an example of a FPS shooter lacking the expecting basics of PC gaming shooters... because its a multiplatform title and they couldn't be bothered.

It could be this game is just a rushed reconstruction of the MMO that will just lack features... much like battlefront. But quite frankly whatever the reason is.... by PC shooter standards... (in terms of options) the game sucks... like a polished rock that is now the size of a pea.

Yep. Consolites will have to pay a monthly fee to play it online lol. PC FTW

@playharderfool: Not really; I said it looked like a console shooter right from the first topic I saw posted here in SW about it (9 months ago). I also said it will likely end up on consoles since it looks like it was designed for consoles. If you think you can find any evidence of me hyping this game (or any console shooter) then go ahead and try.

"TBH Overwatch will probably end up on consoles later down the road. Its got console FPS design written all over it. (HUGE guns taking up 50% of the already console like FOV - check! Multi lock on and auto shoot weapons - check! Third person mode- check!) Its a new IP and throwing it on PC first will ensure it gets played and hyped enough for console gamers to be at least a little bit interested in it later on."

Link to thread.

Looks cool.

She was my favorite character that I played with. At first, she was surprisingly kind of hard to play with for me. But once I tapped into my Quake 3/ Unreal tournament roots, I was rocket aiming really good. Tracer is a huge problem for her though. The guy that heals the team with music was fun to play with as well. The ICE gun chick needs to be nerfed though :P.

@remiks00: aoe bombing+jetpack is a winner combination. Haven't played the game but i see this combo being very good

Loved the Beta, I can see the amount of QQness from noobs who think certain hero comps will be "op".

I'll check it out for sure. I love Blizzard games, Only reason I dont play SC2 is because I get annihilated. XD
