Can the Origins skins be unlocked in the game?

It's gonna be wild seeing everyone playing with all the different skins along the way.
You will NOT regret that.
I have suffered with FPS fatigue for years now and this game wasn't even on my radar until open beta. It's fucking incredible.

It's possible they could be DLC later on or something, but as of right now they can't be obtained without buying the Origins edition.

It's not the same without that glorious death cry.

Will be interesting to see how fast skins are added. I have a feeling we may see event skins that only unlock for achieving super special stuff.

I could listen to that death loop all day though to be fair.
Walmart has Overwatch (PS4/XB1) for $50. You can price-match it elsewhere if you wish.

Soon.
Is there a title update to download before the game goes live?

I pretty much figured I would like it from the time it was announced and I still enjoy tons of FPSs so I'm like 99% I will enjoy it.

That combined with the chat losing their minds makes this perfect.
Totally should have been #1.

Has anyone made transparent rips of the sprays yet? They are good avatar material.
If anyone can make one I'd appreciate the far right Hammer Down one

Did not miss much. There was a raffle for a collectors edition. The panel was interesting.
Completely random
aka you're probably going to get epic skins for the heroes you never play

Totally random, got a bunch of items for heroes I hadn't played much at all during the stress test.
I hate you both and I hope Mei freezes you to death in every game ;_;
My 2 skins I got in the open beta were for Torbjorn and Mercy, 2 of my most played heroes so I had a slim hope it wasnt just blind luck

From what I saw from the beta, it seems completely random. No idea of that is what the system will be going forward, as I don't know what kind of feedback they got/considered because of it.
I would assume it will stay random as hell to encourage people to pay for loot boxes.

As a Mercy Main this pissed me off to no end. It's completely random and I always got crap for characters I'll never touch,
I checked the other thread. No new info?

Also some others on their press site

Someone ripped them from the game separately with transparency intact but I can't find em atm
Bless you for being a Mercy main. That's all <3

Picture this: Two sentry mode Bastions on top of the payload. 4 Reinhardts making a wall around them. Would it work?
Oh there will be. It's encouraged too since you get a bonus 20% exp from matches when you play in a group of friends.

Once I got Lucio's frog suit, it got me to try him out again after initially thinking he was terrible and now he's my favorite support.

Just got back.
Basically all the shorts + origin stories + trailers + about a 30 minute panel about how the shorts were created.
swag - got a cheap tracer or widow cup and some noisemakers.
It would have been better if between each segment we didn't get the "Blizzard" logo then "Overwatch" logo.
Like seriously, it was always this awkward silence with each overwatch logo.
They could have easily edited that out and let it flow more continuously/naturally.
other than that it was cool, but felt like we could have been given more swag.
One thing for sure tho...Overwatch needs to be and deserves to be on the big Screen. They need to make a movie franchise out of this.

Uploaded the Streamable to /r/overwatch, had to share it with the world, I still have it on loop lol.

I actually did this exact thing once. I was Bastion and the rest of my team was Reinhardt. Junkrat killed all of us with his ultimate.
Junkrat would throw all the Reinhardts off with a single concussion mine.

Mmm pretty ready to say why not and just buy this. Did not play the beta aside from one match at a friends place. but everything ive seen has been pretty appealing.

Should have been in the OP

Junkrat's tire can just go right through the shields to the center. There isn't really any defense against that unless all of the Reinhardts make a 180 at the exact right moment, which is certainly not happening on console.

Jesus. I literally choked on my spaghetti watching that. I should've known better than to click your link after already seeing that hilarious gif without sound.
This game...

When Overwatch was announced, I remember whipping up a quick ghetto spreadsheet that broke the various (known at the time) attributes of the heroes down and provided a point-based, approximate system by which folks on the subreddit could conceptualize their own speculative heroes.
I have been geeking out over this game for a minute now, and it's finally here. This is gonna be a good run, buds
