amazon fucked me. this morning got an email saying shipping delay. was supposed to arrive today, now it says delayed to friday.

so much for amazon prime release day delivery....

I actually had that happen for the first time on Saturday when I had something delivered to my parents place. Guess I ordered too close to the date or something. Very surprised at it. They gave me partial refund though.

When did you order the game from Amazon? I wonder what is going on with them recently. This past week was the only time a delivery of theirs has not made it on time for me.

Damn that looks nice but i went with the digital version.

I went digital, too since it was cheaper. But that really looks nice.
Maybe if someone sells an empty box on ebay I'll get just the box to put something on my shelf.

So it looks like the cdkeys.com codes went out, but mine says "EU" for some reason (I'm in Canada). Does blizzard usually have issues with different regions on codes?

I haven't been so excited for an online FPS since... Battlefield 4? Titanfall? Didn't like much the recent shooters, like Hardline, BO3, Battlefront and even Battlefield 4... Titanfall was for xbox... Played a lot and loved Overwatch beta with all the DIFFERENT characters and their own playstyles. Teamplay at its best. Plus the maps are fantastic. And free characters and maps is an even better deal considering all those premium DLC plaguing nowadays shooters. And another reason is that Blizzard is behind it, so is a guarantee of fun player experience and polish. All wins. Cant wait for tonight, longest work day in a long time... tonight will hang out with a couple of friends that are also getting it and wreak havok lol

So can i play with my son on our 2 PS4s (and two Overwatch copys) together in custome game mode without PS+?

Assuming you have PS+ and your son doesn't he would have to play on the primary system and you would play on the secondary. He has access to all digital software on the primary system, even without being logged into psn. He also gets access to your PS+ online access without having his own PS+ sub.
Your account caries rights to use your software and PS+ features on any system you sign into, which is why you can sign into a secondary console and play all your stuff online.

Great to know, thanks.

Even though I've put wayyyy too many hours into some games, I don't think I've ever been this excited/nervous about a game before.

It's kind of worrying to be honest.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
Haven't been following super close so I wasn't aware that game launches at 7:00 tonight local time and not 3AM as per usual Blizzard titles. Neato. I'm purchased and ready to rock.

IIRC there are two codes: one for RU/CIS and one for global.

So you should be okay.

What does the future of this game look like if all maps and heroes are free.

Is the business model just going to be to keep adding new stuff and keep the retail price high?

Did you get two images?

Code 1 Link: Game Code
Code 2 Link: DLC Code

Like this?

Just checking :|

Every time a new hero is released, a tons of new cosmetics will come with it that people will willingly empty their wallets for.

My guess is they will later have a similar system like CS:GO where you can purchase loot boxes with real money.

That, cosmetic microtransactions, merchandise, and maybe shorter game cycles (Overwatch 2 in 2020? Would be unlike Blizzard, I guess).

This work day is brutal. Stopped by Target on a break and they have Overwatch metal containers that appear to be completely pointless but I almost bought one anyway.

Gonna be salty if launch isn't stable.

Think most of the profit will be from loot boxes and like the above poster mentioned, new heroes means new skin which also means people buying loot boxes and praying to RNGesus

I honestly feel bad for the Battleborn team, they made the wrong game at the wrong time :/
