Welcome to Overwatch™

Overwatch™ is a team-based shooter where heroes do battle in a world of conflict.

Soldiers. Scientists. Adventurers. Oddities.
In a time of global crisis, an international task force of heroes banded together to restore peace to a war-torn world: Overwatch.
It ended the crisis and helped to maintain peace in the decades that followed, inspiring an era of exploration, innovation, and discovery. But after many years, Overwatch's influence waned, and it was eventually disbanded.
Overwatch is gone… but the world still needs heroes.
Overwatch features a wide array of unique heroes, ranging from a time-jumping adventurer, to an armored, rocket-hammer-wielding warrior, to a transcendent robot monk. Every hero plays differently, and mastering their abilities is the key to unlocking their potential. No two heroes are the same.

Indeed. Seems quite unique. First time hearing blizzard launching a fps title.

At first when watching the trailer we thought its some sort of Pixar new animation movie. Mana tau its a FPS game. The setup is like offence, defence and support role, similar to a MMORPG style but fps driven. With each hero having their own special abilities to change the tide of the PVP match. But you can see some Warcraft features in the character designs. It's hammer time!

I can imagine each match is going to be a different play style depending on what character you chooses.

I have the Beta invitation for PC/Mac since early this year. Is it coming to PS4?

This is the consolation prize from Blizzard, since they cancelled Project Titan.

You have open beta invitation since beginning 2016? Nice.

"Want a chance to check out Overwatch™ ahead of its May 24 launch? Form a team of friends and try out the team shooter of tomorrow in the Overwatch Open Beta, coming in early May to PC, PS4™, and Xbox One!
As a newly added bonus, if you pre-purchase or preorder Overwatch for any platform at www.buyoverwatch.com, you'll also get early access to the Open Beta for you and a friend from May 3–4. After that, everyone will have a chance to play free during an all-access Open Beta period from May 5–9."

Game releasing on 24th May. But for preorders you can get to join their open beta from 3rd to 9th May. Would reco to just wait for the all-access open beta on 5th May. drool.gif

I'm already 2nd/3rd batch. The first batchers Blizzard only open to Youtubers and game reviewers. Not sure if my PC/Mac invitation can use here.

I've have been supporting Blizzard for donkey years since Warcraft 1. Been playing every Blizzard games except those early console one like Lost Vikings. Don't like Hearthstone and Heroes of the Storm though, never like card games and MOBA.
*
Guess that's too. I have seen the open beta gameplay before since last year July. Ppl in the state and Australia gives pretty good comments about the game. Even some famous cosplayers are playing this game.

This is the first time Blizzard releases a fps under their wings. But so far most of their production has been pretty good, if not, well rated. The trailers, cinematic and demo gameplay staging seems pretty dynamic. Different hero, different skills with different playstyle. Not forgetting the support, tanker and dps role, with each role having different heroes. Not forgetting, tracer is kinda hot wub.gif

Blizzard is a gigantic game studio dedicated to few IPs and milk them hard. They are known to take ages to release a game but so far they deliver top quality among the developers.

For Overwatch, long story is, Blizzard was working with a new Scifi IP called Project Titan for nearly 10 years. It was rumoured to be an FPS RPG hybrid like Destiny. After Activision bought up both Blizzard and Bungie, there was a rumour Activision reviewed both Titan and Destiny and decided to invest in Destiny. So Blizzards scraped up whatever they had been developing for Titan so far and recycled the materials. It was rumoured that Overwatch was supposed to be the PVP aspect of Titan. The Overwatch graphic assets were recycled too, that's why you see futuristic Earth.

That's a lot more if you google up. The above mentioned was only what I remembered.

Interesting read. I can see battleborn took the strategy to release the beta and game just right before Overwatch. I did tried battleborn beta and its pretty good as well. You rush together with creeps like dota and take strategic stand and choice by choosing all the upgrades that affect all your weapon type/effects. On the other hand, overwatch is purely PVP without npc. It would be interesting to see both fps game release and see the outcome.

Actually...

When Battleborn announce its releasing on May 3th, Overwatch announce its doing its open beta on May 3.
When Battleborn already have its open beta dated on 19 April (Can't remember the exact day), guess what, suddenly Overwatch announces its having some sort of "stress test" beta test on the same weekend!

Blizzard is definitely not doing anything illegal, but you can see why Battleborn fans are a little miffed with Blizzard. Blizzard is actively trying to stomp out Battleborn, not the other way around.
*
Ahh I see, Don't have to be a rocket science to figure out what is happening here. haha. Even developers are competitive against one another.

On the other hand, I hope the game would be fun to play casually on a week day. Overwatch looks like a play, close and go sleep kinda of game. Not the grind 1000 hours type. Look forward to trying the beta version also to decide.

Oh yes. Forgot to mention this. Blizzard, as a gigantic studio, doesn't necessary produce the most creative game. But what are they are good at is, take whatever best aspect in all other games, blend and balanced into their custom engine, give it an awesome packaging and proceed to sell big.

Sounds like Apple right? Apple's Steve Job = Blizzard's Chris Metzen.
*
yeah I can see blizzard don't release much game titles. But when they do, its usually a successful big hit that ruined almost 1000 hours of most of its players life. lol. Joking, they know the give and pull strategy to keep players addicted.

Coming to overwatch, keen on trying and see their hero's.

The game looks awesome. Stumble upon this game because of the "Butt" issue.

Read about it here

Anyone else? Or is it just me?

P/S:Tasha cosplay as Tracer is awesome though

Hahaha celaka betul! Tracer's ass also they want kacau biggrin.gif Yeah I heard they decided not to release this winning/char select post due to the butt. Great lost to humanity... laugh.gif

Damyu, quadruple or more kill? xD

The graphic looks smooth and nice. I couldn't download the beta due to overload of data in my ps4. But pretty much will be getting the game. Wonder if its worth getting the collectors edition with the soldier statue. I have stopped CE a long time ago, but this is a nice title to have the CE. Each gameplay and playstyle seems to be different coz there are different Hero/villain skills that you need to watch out for. Including your own character's skills. I also liked the opening game ost that kicks in when you are about to win the match. Good timing and great suspense.

Will be adding a player list in the main page once this goes online and officially launched. biggrin.gif

Not really a fan of PvP, (cos I sucks at PvP tongue.gif) but since there's a hype going on with this FPS, and a free beta, tried it out.

walao... fell in love with it, really can't stop playing it, other pvp usually I'll suffer some sort of lag, but this... this is butterly smooth at 60fps, and so many characters with unique abilities to choose from.

But last night play I concentrate on D.va only, and managed a 6+1 players multikill thumbup.gif which killed myself in the progress also tongue.gif

contemplating now to buy or not to buy.... hmm.gif
*
Manage to have my first try on the beta yesterday. It was really good.

Agree. It is a pvp driven game like team fortress. But it's not stressful like other fps game (name not to be mentioned due to fan base) that gives u better perks when u kill.more leaving the newbie nothing but food for the stronger players. I find it was very easy to join.in game with minimum tutorial, Nd I was able to kill or healing support others. The character selection graphic are really awesome. Good 60 fps, didn't experience much lag in game, smooth gameplay with dynamic team setup. I play as bastion and I turn into stationary turret and killed 5 ppl. I also died many times by the hammer stun, sniper shot, rippers shotgun barrel but it wasn't bad at all. I tried full support role like Angel and was alternating healing and offensive damage boost. 0 kill but voted as most xxx player. (I have no idea what that vote does atm)

Overall, it was a fun shoot, close and sleep kind of game if you just looking for a good fps without the grind. I would recommend this. Worth the rm2xx. Prob will get the digital version. So I don't have to change disk while plAying other game.

This is new to me. Need to have credit card with them to entitle the coupon? physical coupon or online coupon?

Bought some latest new game before at 219 from 'some' local store then realize other place were selling only at RM180. if there is a way to reduce from RM270 to a lower price, then im keen. This is for physical copy only right? Does the coupon apply to PS store digital Overwatch purchase?

Okay. I know about this then. Thanks for informing.

Tonight is the last day for beta. Overall it seems to be a game worth while getting (if you are a fps pvp person). I saw the trailer and gameplay and played myself and it was a good fun. Will see you guys on launch day : )

most pvp fps need you to grind for the upgrades
once you've grinded for high level gears and perks, those newbies are basically canon fodder

whereas Overwatch is different, there's no need for upgrades and perks, as each unique characters has their own unique abilities, and you can just jump in anytime, even for newbie.

Yeap. Play, close, sleep type of game. For ppl who dislike investing thousand of hours for ARPG or MMORPG or have a busy working life, such game would be appealing.

few of my gameplays did have either defender or healer given play of the game
just not that common as most console players still goes for kills instead of support

there was a game I'm the only one pushing the payload from A to B by myself only, the rest are too busy killing each others and didn't bother with me tongue.gif
the only game I can get 11 consecutive kills and didn't die laugh.gif
Anyway, noticed a lot more using Hanzo recently, me still struggling with his slow bow, but yet I got killed countless time by Hanzo
his Ulti is a bit OP IMO

Good kill bro. Double shield rush with rocket launcher dps and 2 support. The dwafs got flush back to the middle earth sweat.gif

QUOTE(Oblivionz @ May 10 2016, 06:13 PM)
i guess it is becoz this kind of game is still new to console players. Everyone thought this is pvp where they thought the highest kill wins the game.

where else pc players already know what this is hence they have more knowledge on this.

give it some time and everyone will know what to do.

Anyway, check our video below. we have a match where we faced 5 dwalves. luckily we change our strategy after we found out. then the 2nd match, we used their strategy to win against them. Enjoy.


*
Yeap. Even during beta, I wasn't really focusing much what the team need and was picking and testing the character that I would like to play. However I do realize the effect is much better and strategic if a team works together on the balance setup and push the wave of opponent. One player wont stand a chance when they bump into a team of well coordinated setup.

I was blasting everything with bastian. It was a no brainer, and fun. laugh.gif
