How long are the matches on average? Wanna see if I can get my first match in while taking a quick break from work (I work from home lol)
 
Just tried it on xbox... I think a lot of people will like it, but I've binged way too hard on FPS for the past couple years.
 
I'm honestly about to rip my face off:

I spent an hour trying to figure out why my code wasn't working. Now I finally get the install button to not be gray, then boom:

Holy shit I'm having a great time with this (PC), and I've only touched 3-4 of the classes too.

Guys, this game is going to be huge.
 
My party of 5 has been trying to find a match for about 25 minutes now. We played about 4-5 games prior but then our pub dropped in a game and we never got a new one. I restarted the game and the 4 that remained got a game almost instantly... So I think maybe the matchmaker is having problems with large parties or something.
 
So far only messed around in the practice range as all the characters but I'm loving the variety. Already got a few in mind coming from what I enjoy playing from TF2 but am disappointed there isn't a Spy clone.
 
I've been playing for about the last hour and half and have been having a blast! I don't really know the character names, but so far I like the Jamaican support dude, the gunslinger, Tracer, the sniper lady and the Gorilla. In fact, it's a joy just trying all of the different characters! Everything is well designed from the ground up; the varied and pleasing environments, the appealing character aesthetics and the "gunplay" are all fantastic. I don't normally play these types of games, so for me to be enjoying it as much as I have really says something about the design. I have to put it up with Rocket League as one of the best multiplayer games I have played in years.
 
Okay, preordered on the US PSN and I can play using the client downloaded from the Japanese PSN on my JPN account (if anyone was wondering if account flagging allows for playing on diffferent accounts on the console).

Now my question - why don't I have the friend invite code in my mailbox yet? Anyone else in the same situation?
 
Just got an email saying Welcome to Open Beta early access and my "no license" issue is gone... jeez. Apparently they were slow rolling access?
 
Games really fun, I am also really bad at it. Think I might stick to support, I like the playstyle and my terrible aim isnt as big an issue.
 
Holy shit I love this game. It's so awesome. Colorful and well designed. All characters seem unique and have their own personality too. Definitely picking this up. Doing pretty well on PC too despite my unconventional setup atm.
 
Does MSI overlays not work in this game? I'm trying to look at my fps and it doesn't show up in game. The game is playing really smooth....feels like the upward 60's. Just curious.
 
Anyone know how to revive with Mercy? I've only been able to do it once. Do you have to hold the button or just press it?

It's your ultimate, it's only activatable once it's charged. You press it, the number in the middle of the screen indicates how many people you're in range to revive.
